Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 96
Xiang Jingming turned around helplessly: "Xue'er, please stop messing around. I'll take care of you when you get back!"

Xiang Yingxue became anxious, took the bow and arrow from the guard, drew the bow himself, and shot at King Chen.

When Murong Chen heard the sound, he ducked slightly, and the sharp arrow passed by quickly.

Turning around, she saw it was Princess Yingxue, and the hatred in her eyes became a little more.

Xiang Yingxue drew her strong bow again.

"Xue'er, are you crazy?"

Xiang Jingming looked at his sister in disbelief: "Father said that if King Chen dies in Chu State, he will send you to Yan State as a hostage!"

Xiang Yingxue aimed at King Chen and sneered: "Father said he would not let Murong Chen die, but he did not say he would definitely let him go back head and tail!"

After speaking, it was another arrow.

Murong Chen turned to the left, reached out to grab the arrow feathers, and threw it back with all his strength.

"Xue'er be careful!"

Zhou Jing hugged her and moved her to a safe position instantly.

The arrow thrown back by Murong Chen hit the wooden pillar behind Xiang Yingxue steadily.

After a moment, the wooden pillar cracked open.

"Xiang Yingxue!"

Murong Chen looked coldly: "Remember what I said to you in the palace!"

He secretly felt ruthless in his heart.

When I conquer the city, I need you to serve me wholeheartedly!
Not only that, I also want you to be a slave and beg for mercy every day!

King Chen clenched his fists, turned around and strode towards the city gate.

Zhou Jinghou broke into a cold sweat out of fear. When he looked back, he found that even if he didn't come to save her, the arrow would just miss Princess Yingxue.

this means……

King Chen didn't want to hurt the princess at all?
Xue'er has already tried to kill him, why should he show mercy?
The answer was clearly in his heart, but he didn't want to face it.Why would a man allow a woman to do this?
What King Ruochen only saw in his fiancée was her beauty, and all he had in his heart was jealousy.

But now that King Chen was clearly moved, he felt slightly uneasy.

Zhou Jing came to his senses immediately when he saw Princess Yingxue starting to bend her bow and arrow again.

"Xue'er, he is an unparalleled famous general and the king of battles. Even if he is disabled, it will not prevent him from commanding troops, planning, and conquering cities and territories!"

Zhou Jing snatched her bow and arrow and threw it on the ground.

"I do not care!"

Xiang Yingxue stubbornly went to pick up the bow and arrow on the ground.

"As long as he is weaker, my soldiers in Da Chu will be stronger!"

"Cher!"

Zhou Jing clamped his hands, hesitated for a moment, and finally said what he said against his will.

"He almost killed you just now. Do you know how scared I was? Just let him go and avoid embarrassment to His Royal Highness."

Zhou Jing has always regarded himself as a benevolent gentleman since he was a child, and has only said things that went against his conscience twice.

The first time was when King Chen rescued the princess. When the princess asked him, he said he couldn't tell whether he was killing or saving.

The second time is this time.

His face turned slightly red because of his duplicity, and his heart beat much faster.

But how can that be?
He must not let Princess Yingxue notice King Chen's feelings for her!

Of course, maybe he was overly worried. Even King Chen himself was not aware of this intention.

In Murong Chen's mind, he thought that Xiang Yingxue was just a ruthless Princess of Chu who had deceived him and forced him into a desperate situation.
