In the capital of Yan State, at the Princess's residence.

A loud "bang" suddenly broke the silence in the pavilion.

The woman in a bright red palace dress had a gloomy face and angrily swept all the fruits on the table to the ground.

A pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes stared coldly at the secret guards kneeling on the ground, "How can this be! You are all a bunch of trash! My consort was captured, and you didn't try to rescue him. How dare you rush back to report this to me?"

"Please calm down, Princess!"

"Please calm down, Princess!"

The maids and servants guarding the eldest princess knelt on the ground in panic, lowered their heads, and trembled all over.

Even the two most favored male favorites of the eldest princess turned pale and were too frightened to say a word.

Although the prince consort had not returned to Yan State for more than ten years, after he stayed in Li State to seek a high official position, he used his identity as the Governor-General of Jiangnan to do a lot of things for the development and growth of Yan State.

However, these male favorites who could be slaughtered at any time did not dare to talk about their prince consorts in front of the princess, for fear that the princess would be unhappy and send people to drag them out and chop them up.

A few days ago, a charming male favorite ran to the eldest princess and talked about the prince consort marrying a wife in the State of Li. He even denounced the prince consort for betraying the eldest princess's true love.

In the end, the princess called the guards to drag the daring male lover out and beat him with a hundred sticks. Until the moment he died, the bloody sticks were still on his body...

With the previous experience as a lesson, the other male favorites staying in the Princess's Mansion were even more afraid to act recklessly.

"Calm down?"

Princess Yan Ji sneered, and suddenly she drew out the long sword on the table, staring at the secret guard and said, "I never keep useless people around me!"

Before he finished his words, the sharp sword blade slashed across the secret guard's neck, and bright blood spurted out instantly, slowly dripping onto the ground.

The secret guard widened his eyes in disbelief and lost his breath in an instant.

he died.

Seeing this, everyone present became more and more frightened, and they wished they could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it immediately, so as to avoid losing their lives due to carelessness.

Princess Yan Ji threw the blood-stained sword to the ground, stepped over the secret guard without changing her expression, left only a few words, and walked forward without looking back.

"Clean this place up as soon as possible. It's an eyesore to me."

"Yes."

The maid and the servant quickly responded.

Only after they could no longer see the eldest princess' back did they dare to stand up tremblingly.

The pool of blood on the ground was quite eye-catching. Several maids just took a quick glance at it and couldn't help but feel their legs go weak, their bodies go cold, and cold sweats even broke out on their backs.

This is the ninth person the princess has killed today.

The two male favorites also felt sorry when they saw it.

But the eldest princess has always been bloodthirsty, and no one dares to interfere with her.

……

After coming out of the Princess's Mansion, Yan Ji got on a carriage and entered the palace.

Since it is about the prince consort, she still needs her brother to give her some advice in order to save him.

The Princess's Mansion is closest to the Imperial Palace, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to reach the palace gate.

The current Emperor of Yan is the sixth son of the late emperor. The Sixth Prince's biological mother died early and he has no support from his maternal family. He is not valued by the late emperor at all. If the Sixth Prince wants to fight for the throne, he has no chance of winning.

However, he was lucky.

At that time, the weak and pitiful Sixth Prince somehow caught the eye of the Seventh Princess Yan Ji.

You must know that the Seventh Princess, Yan Ji, was the only daughter of the late Queen. She had always known how to please the late Emperor and was extremely favored. Even the Crown Prince at the time indulged the Seventh Princess in every way.

Even if she deliberately teased His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, He would not dare to lose his temper with the Seventh Princess, let alone punish her...

Later, the late emperor was seriously ill. During the period when the princes were fighting for the imperial power, in order to win the throne for the sixth prince, the seventh princess Yan Ji used many shady tricks behind the scenes to kill the other princes and even pulled down the crown prince who was about to ascend the throne...

It can be said that if there was no Princess Yan Ji, there would be no Emperor of Yan today.

Therefore, after the Sixth Prince ascended the throne, no matter what the Eldest Princess wanted, he would try his best to fulfill her wishes.

In order to show his importance to the eldest princess, the Emperor of Yan deliberately had the eldest princess's mansion built not far from the palace gate to make it convenient for the eldest princess to enter the palace at any time.

"Brother Royal."

After entering the palace, without waiting for the imperial guards outside the door to go in and report, Yan Ji broke into the imperial study without permission and said with an unhappy face: "Brother, my son-in-law has been captured!"

After she finished speaking, Yan Ji lowered her head and saw several familiar-looking ministers kneeling on the ground in the imperial study. She wondered what they were discussing with her brother.

"It's Jill who's here."

This was not the first or second time that the eldest princess suddenly barged in when the emperor was discussing matters with his ministers. However, the emperor of Yan State did not feel the slightest bit displeased by this.

Thinking back to what he had just heard, the smile on the Emperor of Yan's face gradually disappeared. He waved his sleeves at the ministers kneeling on the ground and said, "You all should leave first. We will discuss today's affairs at the court tomorrow morning."

"Yes."

Your Majesty has spoken, and the ministers dare not disobey.

What's more, the eldest princess is here at this moment, and they dare not open their mouths to refute His Majesty's orders. Who knows if the eldest princess will suddenly go crazy and draw her sword against them?

After the ministers left the imperial study, the Emperor of Yan raised his eyes to look at Yan Ji and asked suspiciously, "What did Ji'er say just now? Was your consort captured?"

"Exactly."

Yan Ji had a violent and bloodthirsty temper and would not tolerate anyone resisting her. Only when facing her own royal brother would she reluctantly restrain herself.

Yan Ji took a deep breath and said in a calm voice: "Brother, the spy came back to report that the prince consort has been captured by the prince of Li and taken back to Shengjing of Li. I guess the prince consort's identity has been exposed."

"Also, the batch of gold that was supposed to be shipped from Li this month also fell into the hands of the Crown Prince of Li."

This was what made Yan Ji most angry.

That batch of gold was saved by the prince consort with great effort and donated to the Yan State Treasury. How could it be taken away so easily by the prince of Li State! ?

The damned Li State's prince is so shameless that he even dared to reach out and snatch the Yan State's gold! ? ?

He simply doesn't take the State of Yan seriously!

"If the identity of the prince consort is exposed, then this matter will be very difficult."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Yan frowned, "I'm afraid the situation of the Prince Consort will be dangerous."

"I'm afraid that the Emperor of Li will be cruel and order the execution of the Prince Consort."

"No! The prince consort must not die!"

Yan Ji had a gloomy face, and the handkerchief in her hand was about to be torn apart by her. She said bitterly: "If the prince consort dies, who can find countless gold for the Yan State treasury?"

From the beginning to the end, the eldest princess was only concerned about the value of her husband.

The Emperor of Yan agreed with her and said, "Since Ji'er doesn't want to hear the news of the Prince Consort's death again, I will send someone to Shengjing, Li, to rescue the Prince Consort."

"and many more."

Yan Ji suddenly remembered something and calmed down instantly. She said thoughtfully, "I received news earlier that the Emperor of Li will have his birthday in two months."

"Since the Crown Prince of Li has taken my consort away, I have no choice but to go to Li in person to rescue my consort and then give the Emperor of Li a great gift..."

"Brother, what do you think?"

The Emperor of Yan naturally agreed with her idea: "Okay, then I will send a thousand guards to go with you."
