Chapter 361: Beautiful as a Flower, Heart as a Serpent and Scorpion

Jiang Ning appeared calm and did not show any panic because of his words.

Li Jixian was a pervert – the more scared and fearful she was, the more excited he would be.

“If you dare touch me, you should know what the outcome will be. My father won’t let you go, and my Uncle and the Prince of Yu will be back soon. Either of them can kill you!”

“You’re right. However…” Li Jixian stroked her smooth cheek with the back of his hand, “How would they know that you’re with me? Without evidence, neither your father, Prime Minister Jiang, nor General Jiang, or even the one who may have already died halfway, the fifth, can do anything to me.”

“What did you say?”

“The fifth might have already died.”

“You’re dreaming.”

“You don’t believe it? It’s fine. After all, he is your man. It’s normal for you not to accept it immediately.”

“With a trash like you, you want to kill the Prince of Yu? I don’t mean to look down on you, but you’re really unworthy.”

“Even a trash like me became the Crown Prince. And your perfect Prince of Yu has been demoted to guard the Imperial Mausoleum. He’s now powerless and without military authority. Isn’t he at my mercy?” Li Jixian appeared very smug, “I’m not afraid to tell you, on the must-pass road for the Prince of Yu to return, I’ve set up a trap. He’s as good as dead.”

As he spoke, he stared at Jiang Ning without blinking, as if trying to read something from her face.

But he was disappointed.

Jiang Ning’s face showed no expression, not even the slightest ripple.

It was as if she had heard an ordinary casual remark like the weather was nice today.

Li Jixian exclaimed in surprise, “Aren’t you sad and heartbroken?”

“First, you can’t possibly kill him. Second, even if he did die… there’s nothing.”

“Wow, you’re a woman with a breathtaking beauty and a heart like a venomous scorpion.” Li Jixian laughed heartily, “I thought with the fifth’s looks, women would love him to the point of being completely besotted, but even his Princess Consort doesn’t care about his life or death. It’s pitiful.”

“And you’re not pitiful? If your Princess Consort really loved you, she wouldn’t volunteer to kidnap other women for you.”

“At least if I die, she’ll shed a few tears for me. Not like you, who are so indifferent.”

“Anyway, you won’t know when you’re dead.”

“Little Pepper, don’t try to be mouthy with me. I know you’re smart. The sleeping smoke in your sleeves and those sharp hairpins on your head have all been taken away. No one will come to rescue you on such a late night. Your tricks are no longer useful to me. So, just make things easy for me.”

Jiang Ning smiled faintly at him, “Why should I make things easy for you? Since I’m going to die either way, I might as well keep my innocence. If the Prince of Yu dies too, we can go to the underworld as a ghostly couple. That would be nice too.”

Upon hearing this, Li Jixian was inexplicably consumed by a surge of jealousy.

He gripped Jiang Ning’s chin forcefully and said coldly, “Don’t even think about it. If both of you die, I’ll bury one of you at the far east and the other at the far west, so even as ghosts, you won’t be able to see each other!”

Jiang Ning remained indifferent.

Li Jixian snorted and was attracted by her soft, red lips, bending down to kiss her.

Jiang Ning turned her face away, dodging him.

Li Jixian sneered, “Having given birth to the Prince of Yu’s child, there’s no need to pretend to be a chaste and righteous woman in front of me, right?”
