Chapter 1124 Unscrupulous
"If we act rashly, we will put the little girl in danger. It is better to wait and see what happens, find out the flaws, and never try again."

Lu Yuanli looked at Nan Wanyan being held hostage by Lu Shengsheng, his eyes were cold. Before he could speak, he heard the people's indignant remarks.

"Second Prince, Princess Hongling is not wrong. She is protecting us. You can't hurt her!"

"Yes, Second Prince, you and Princess Hongling grew up together. Don't you think that Princess Hongling is the most suitable candidate for heir apparent?"

However, among these various voices, some also spoke out with indignation towards the people of Nanwanyan.

"Don't go too far! Princess Minghuang has also done a lot of good things for our Daxia!"

"Yes, there was a great epidemic last year. If Princess Minghuang hadn't led the Imperial Hospital and personally provided us with free medical treatment and disaster relief, some people wouldn't have survived until now!"

"At that time, the epidemic was coming fiercely. How many people died because of it, and how many families were destroyed. It was all up to Princess Minghuang to turn the tide. This matter must have been the killing of the guards on their own initiative, and it has nothing to do with Princess Minghuang!"

Although Nan Wanyan didn't stay in Daxia as long as Lu Shengsheng, he still won a lot of people's hearts in the past two years.

But these voices were still insignificant compared to those who deliberately stirred up trouble, and were quickly covered up.

After all, someone did die today, and many people were incited and were forcing the Daxia royal family to support Lu Shengsheng as their respecter.

Lu Shengsheng was very satisfied with the current chaos. She took Nan Wanyan completely into the princess mansion and retreated to a stone slab to stop.

At this moment, a fierce murderous aura suddenly came.

"Hong Ling, let go of Wan Yan!"

Lu Shengsheng saw Lu Yuanli and Lu Yilan pass by the people at some point and attack her directly.

"Brother Second Emperor, I'm sorry." She curled her lips and smiled coldly, and suddenly stepped hard on the stone slab under her feet. The stone slab instantly became loose, causing a puff of dust and smoke.

The two fell into the gap between the opened stone slabs in an instant. In the blink of an eye, the stone slabs returned to their original positions, and there was no trace of them again.

The hands of Lu Yuanli and Lu Yilan were still in the air, only grabbing a handful of air.

Lu Yuanli's golden eyes were sharp as he landed on the stone slab. He stepped on it again and again, but nothing happened.

"Someone, break this stone slab through!"

"Arrange people to look around for mechanisms. There must be a passage under the ground. Find Princess Minghuang as soon as possible!"

The guards immediately did so.

Lu Yilan half-squinted her eyes and stared at the stone slab for a moment. She was not as panicked as Lu Yuanli. Her handsome face was cold, but her eyes were somewhat meaningful...

Meanwhile, underground.

Nan Wanyan and Lu Shengsheng fell to the ground together.

Although the tunnel was covered with straw, she was unprepared and fell hard. The clothes on her wrists and knees were torn and oozing with blood.

Her ankle was twisted violently, causing her to frown in pain. Suddenly, the cold touch on her neck hit her again.

Nan Wanyan looked back and saw Lu Shengsheng standing behind her without any injuries, with soft cushions prepared in advance at her feet.

Lu Shengsheng's gentle demeanor had long since disappeared. She looked down at Nan Wanyan with a cold curl on her lips.

"Get up, we have to hurry."

Nan Wanyan's eyes were cold, she slowly stood up and looked up.

This tunnel was extremely quiet, and no sound could be heard from above. Moreover, it was close to a height of three meters. Even if she called for help, the royal brothers could not help her.Nan Wanyan was coerced by Lu Shengsheng to move forward. Looking around, he found that the stone walls around the secret passage were very smooth. It was unlikely that they had been excavated hastily.

And every once in a while, you can see a burning oil lamp, which must have been lit by someone in advance.

The preparations were quite thorough.

She endured the pain in her ankles and walked forward. The waterfall of black hair was now without the hairpin and was draped over her shoulders casually. It felt a bit broken.

"So well prepared, Lu Shengsheng, everything today, no, not just today, everything that happened during this period of time, was planned by you a long time ago, right?"

Lu Shengsheng raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise, holding the knife against Nan Wanyan's back.

"What do you want to say?"

The air in the secret passage was damp and cold, and only the faint footsteps of the two could be heard.

Nan Wanyan, "The mysterious person who set up a line with Hongmeng, told her all my travel plans and travel time, and used her to assassinate me, was it you?"

Lu Shengsheng smiled disdainfully, without stopping or hiding it.

"Lu Jiaojiao is extremely stupid and hates you to the core. It is easiest to cooperate with her. As long as I provoke her a little, she will be willing to do things for me just to let you die, even if she is reluctant."

"Besides, I just gave her a favor along the way. Who makes her so stupid that she can't even handle these small things?"

Nan Wanyan narrowed her eyes, "That day at the palace banquet, Lu Shengsheng originally wanted to kill me with poison, but he didn't want the matter to be exposed."

"Then she also died of the poison. You must have given her the poison when I met you beforehand. Poison like 'Jie' has long been listed as a taboo, and people who are not members of the royal family will never come into contact with it."

"But as the princess of Daxia, it is not difficult for you to bring 'Jie' back to the world."

Nan Wanyan's tone was always extremely calm. Lu Shengsheng's brows pressed lightly, a little displeased. She hated Nan Wanyan's calm and composed appearance.

However, she still smiled proudly, fully agreeing with her plan.

"If she is just stupid, but can always listen to me, I won't let her die so quickly, and I can give her the antidote."

"It's a pity that she didn't complete her mission. Before she died, she had thoughts that she shouldn't have had. Of course, it would be best if she died."

Hearing this, Nan Wanyan said with a gloomy face, "You are not a thing. You will do whatever it takes to achieve your goal. No matter how bad Lu Jiaojiao is, she is still your biological sister, and you are not willing to do anything cruel? You even did it to my uncle!"

"When I went to Wuhai to take out the corpse for poison testing, the dungeon mechanism under the coffin at that time should have been created by the same person as the secret passage you have today, right?"

"Lu Shengsheng, for the sake of being the crown prince, you killed so many innocent people, even the dead ones. How can your conscience be at ease by relying on such means to get to the throne? The throne is really given to you, can you sit on it?" Is it safe?"

The bones of her uncle should not be desecrated, but Lu Shengsheng did not hesitate to use him as bait in order to lure her into the game and taint the souls of the dead. There was simply no bottom line!
I pretend to be gentle and kind on weekdays, but my heart is so vicious. I really don’t live up to my aunt’s teachings!

"I didn't expect that you know quite a lot." Lu Shengsheng's expression remained unchanged, the dagger was still pressed tightly against her back, her tone was cold.

"So what, even if I have done many evil things before, from today onwards, people all over the world will know that I, Lu Shengsheng, have no choice but to rebel!"

"It was the Daxia royal family who wanted to marry me to Tiansheng. The people were aggrieved for me, but they were killed by your guards. The Daxia princes just watched and didn't care. The Daxia royal family was so angry that I held you hostage. , it’s just to protect the people.”

As she said that, she laughed evilly again.

"I, Lu Shengsheng, am a good princess who is considerate of the people and understands justice. All my rebellions are based on winning the hearts of the people. Even if my bloodline is not righteous, no one will criticize me."

"And you, Nan Wanyan, are just a selfish prince. You forced me to get married and killed people. Besides being of royal blood, what qualifications do you have to be a prince?!"
