After rebirth, the prince fell into the hands of the princess again

Ji Chu and Linlang looked at each other, then stepped forward to fight alongside Tang Mumu.

"Since you have appeared here to block our way into the palace, it means that our plan has succeeded. Xie Yu has successfully ascended the throne. After tonight, he will be the legitimate king of Xiling. Peace talks between the two countries are inevitable. How can you change that with your own strength?"

Linlang said loudly, and after a pause she continued, "Since you are Mu Mu's master, you should know that she and His Royal Highness Prince Rong are truly in love, so why do you want to stop their marriage? Moreover, this person is your disciple, so why don't you let us go now and pretend that we have never met tonight?"

"You little doll are so annoying."

Jiang Moqing was already angry, and as soon as Linlang opened her mouth, she vented all her anger on her. Before Linlang could even react, she felt a gust of cold wind rushing towards her. When she wanted to dodge, it was too late, and she could only take a solid blow.

Linlang was shocked and flew far away. Ji Chu quickly flashed behind her and hugged her so that the two were not shocked too far.

"How are you?" Ji Chu looked at Lin Linlang with concern. The latter vomited blood just as she was about to speak.

"So the little girl named Ji is here too. I'll take you both off."

"Master, don't."

Tang Mumu knew that he was no match for his master, let alone blocking his attack, so he could only fly in front of Ji Chu and Linlang and open his arms to block them.

Except for Jiang Moqing, no one reacted. Even Tang Mumu didn't fully realize what she had done. She only knew that she couldn't watch Ji Chu get hurt, and she couldn't let her master hurt her.

She could no longer repay what she owed Achu, and she couldn't let Achu suffer any harm, at least not before she died.

The moment they opened their eyes, not only Ji Chu and Linlang were frightened, but Tang Mumu herself was also startled. She gasped slightly and felt like she had survived a calamity.

"Master, please don't hurt them. They are all my friends. Please, Master."

Jiang Moqing withdrew his hand. At this moment, Tang Mumu was in front of him. Recalling the scenes of these years, he always regarded her as a little girl who relied on her master for everything. He never thought that she had grown into an adult who needed lover and friends.

I have learned to resist myself.

"I'll ask you one last time, do you want to follow me?"

Tang Mumu was not afraid at all, and met Jiang Moqing's gaze. "Even if Master takes me away today, I will come back when I find a chance. What does my father, who has a grudge against Master, have to do with others? Master, do you really want to ignore the people of the two countries for your own selfish reasons?"

"Besides, the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne is a fact, and the Princess has no chance. She is Master's disciple, and she can follow Master back to Taoyuan Valley in the future, or continue to travel around the world. Hasn't she been living a good life these years? Why must she fight for that position?"

Jiang Moqing's gaze suddenly turned to the two people behind Tang Mumu. His eyes were filled with murderous intent. At this moment, he really wanted to kill these people who were in the way.

At the same time, Tang Mumu succeeded, grabbed Ji Chu and Linlang and turned to run, but he did not run towards the palace, but ran to a side road. Through the side road there was a dark alley, and after passing the dark alley they could go directly to the Xiao Mansion.

There must be some trap in the Xiao Mansion that can at least hold them off for a while.

The three of them were all good at light work and were extremely fast. In just a cup of tea, they had crossed the dark alley and quickly entered the Xiao Mansion.

The moment the door was closed, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Tang Mumu gasped for breath, his legs softened and he slid down the door.

"Mu Mu?" Ji Chu was the first to react and supported Tang Mu Mu, looking at her with concern.

"It's okay, I'll just take a break. The Word Spirit Gu can only hold Master back for a quarter of an hour at most. We have to find a way quickly. Fanfan, you are most familiar with the Xiao Mansion, is there any place we can hide temporarily?"

"Yes, come with me."

Linlang walked in front to lead the way, while Tang Mumu and Ji Chu followed behind her. It was impossible to enter the palace now, so they could only pray that there would be no more trouble with Rong Yan and the others.

By the time dawned, the chaos in the palace had subsided. After all, Xie Yu had won the coup. The army led by the princess had run out of luck. Xie Qixing withstood the pressure and wrote an edict of succession. He had moved to Changle Palace and regarded himself as the emperor.

In just one night, the palace servants had washed away the bloodstains, and everything was as peaceful as if nothing had happened.

Xie Yu went to the dark prison to see Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan's hair was disheveled and his body was covered in blood, but his stubborn and cruel temperament remained unchanged.

"Aunt, how are you." Xie Yu bowed slightly to Xie Yuan. The other party slowly raised her head, stared at Xie Yu for a long time, and suddenly laughed out loud.

"Xiao Yu is here. This is not the princess's residence. Let's just stand and talk." Xie Yuan smiled very gently. Xie Yu was dazed for a moment, as if she had returned to her childhood, when her aunt took her to jump around and run wild in the palace, followed by a large group of palace servants who cried and begged them to stop.

Many years ago, his aunt was the person who treated him best in the palace. His mother died early, people were indifferent, his father disliked him, and the servants disrespected him. If it weren't for his aunt, he might not have lived to grow up.

I don't know when it started, but he and his aunt became enemies. It was obvious that he didn't want that position at the beginning, and it was obvious that his aunt would not force him at the beginning.

"Aunt, I have taken that position now. Are you satisfied?"

"Of course I am satisfied. You have lived up to your aunt's expectations."

"Aunt wants me to be the king, so why are you fighting with me? Aunt knows that if she says so, I won't fight for it."

"I want to know why my aunt has become more and more unscrupulous. She has killed more and more people over the years, some of whom were innocent."

Xie Yu came to see Xie Yuan today because he wanted to know why his aunt became a different person after he grew up, killing people decisively and with vicious means.

Xie Yuan suddenly laughed, looked at Xie Yu and said slowly: "Xiao Yu, after all these years you are still as soft-hearted as before. If I hadn't killed them, you wouldn't have been able to seize power so easily today. You know better than me how many noble families are behind my father. If they don't die, you and I will die. I am taking the initiative to eliminate the enemies. What's wrong with that?"

"They are all innocent."

"No one is innocent. My father is guilty, the noble families that supported him are guilty, and you and I are both guilty. It's just a matter of whose sin is heavier. For the rest of your life, you will have to stay in that position and atone for your sins. I will also atone for my own actions."

The master did not enter the palace last night because in his heart he had never really cared about her as his disciple from the beginning to the end.

"The victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. Now I am defeated. You can kill me or chop me up as you please."

Xie Yu took a step back, his eyes deep and dark. At this point, he and his aunt could no longer go back.

"The Imperial Master has not been found yet, so you will have to stay here for a while. Once the Imperial Master is captured, I will let you go."

Xie Yuan laughed out loud as if he had heard a joke, but his laughter was tinged with a sense of sadness, "He won't come, don't waste your energy."
