The concubine's favorite? Break off the engagement and marry another prince, please respect you

Chapter 106

Lu Ziyan sneered, "Your cousin and aunt are extremely afraid of me. I don't know how they found out my background. When I didn't know my true identity, they attacked me many times. At first, I thought it was the emperor..."

He paused, then remembered the wrong things he had done and stopped talking.

If the eldest prince hadn't taken the initiative to provoke him, how could he...

"Are you curious about why he is targeting me?" Lu Ziyan's eyes moved slightly, looking at the dagger tightly held in her hand, and said lightly: "Because I am the legitimate son of the late queen, and I am fostered in the Lu family. The emperor and several old ministers know about it. He wants the position of crown prince, and he can't take it unless I die."

The legitimate son of the late queen?
Xie Wan Ning’s eyes widened.

Fifth prince?
As far as she knew, the late queen died of complications during childbirth, and the fifth prince was born prematurely and died before he even lived to see his full month.

When she knew that his real identity might be a prince, she subconsciously thought that he was the emperor's illegitimate son. Unexpectedly, he was actually the legitimate son?

He is also the legitimate son known to several old ministers.

With such a background, he was arranged to be the youngest son of the eldest wife in the Wuyuan Marquis Mansion?

Xie Wan Ning’s first reaction was, how could the Lu family agree to this?

But the next moment, she was thinking, why would the Lu family refuse!
The men of the Lu family hold military power, and all the men in the family have made great military achievements. Only they themselves know whether they are afraid of the emperor or not.

The previous generation of the Lu family didn't even have a daughter, and there was no one in the harem.

What a great opportunity it is to be able to raise a child for the emperor, and a legitimate son at that!

Once Lu Ziyan grows up, the emperor will get a legitimate prince who is good at fighting, and the Lu family will be grateful for raising this prince.

It doesn't matter how much of the emperor's actions were due to palace struggles or considerations of imperial power.

What’s important is that the Khan, who is in a precarious situation, certainly doesn’t need a successor who is renowned for his virtue.

In troubled times, you don’t rely on winning people over with virtue, you rely on…

Xie Wan Ning sorted everything out.

Lu Ziyan was right. Perhaps he had been the emperor's designated crown prince since birth.

As long as he doesn't die, the eldest prince will not be able to sit on the throne of the crown prince.

Since he said he had taken revenge, she no longer needed to ask about the final outcome of her previous life.

...He must have won.

It doesn’t matter whether he ascends the throne or becomes the crown prince.

What’s important is that he is the emperor’s legitimate son who has been secretly cultivated for more than ten years. Now at the age of eighteen, his aura is unstoppable.

The general who was able to defeat the Northern Frontier was the queen's legitimate son.

She could guess how high hopes the emperor placed on this son.

If she really killed him...

It was tantamount to cutting out the emperor's own flesh and blood.

Regardless of whether the Khan's regime is stable or not, the emperor will definitely not let her go.

Even if Lu Ziyan really cleaned up the mess, there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and she didn't dare to bet that this matter could be kept secret from the king of a country.

As long as there is the slightest suspicion, the emperor would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.

What's more, even if Lu Ziyan could prove that he died of a relapse of his old illness, his death was still related to her.

He rushed back to Beijing for her, and broke into the Duke of Pei's mansion at night for her. His old illness was caused by her, so how could the emperor forgive her? Maybe the Xie family would be implicated by her!

There was a strong wind outside the window, and it seemed that the weather was going to change. Xie Wan Ning held the dagger tightly in her hand and stood motionless beside the table.

Lu Ziyan, who was sitting, tilted his head to look at her and smiled faintly, "What are you still worried about? You can't bear to leave me, right?"

Hearing this, Xie Wan Ning's eyelashes trembled, and her eyes met his. They could both see each other's expressions.

She was panicking with the sharp knife in her hand, but the man sitting there waiting for her to decide his life or death was calm and composed.

She pursed her lips and said, "What if I don't want your life, but sentence you to never appear in front of me in this life?"

"That won't do," the girl in front of him gave up her intention to kill him. Lu Ziyan concluded that she still had feelings for him. He breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't show it on his face.

He said: "As long as I live, I can't stop myself from seeing you."

Xie Wan Ning nodded stiffly and asked again: "So, things like today will keep happening. Even if you let me go back this time, I might be kidnapped and humiliated by you whenever I go out in the future?"

Humiliation...

Lu Ziyan looked unhappy.

"Don't say that. If you don't like it, I won't force you." He smiled and said, "Since you don't want to kill me, I will assume that you will divorce that sickly girl."

"When do you plan to divorce? Give me a deadline." Considering that she had only been married for a few days, it was indeed a bit unreasonable to divorce suddenly. He was quite considerate and said, "Or I can find a way..."

He had already thought of the idea of ​​letting her leave peacefully, but Xie Wan Ning did not relax the dagger in her hand.

Even with a sharp blade in her hand, she felt that she was forced into a desperate situation.

An overwhelming despair came over me, and the scenes in my dream were still vivid in my mind.

They were all reminding her and warning her that the man in front of her was like a mountain, always suppressing and forcing her.

He seemed to give her a choice, but he was sure that she would not really kill him.

He had planned everything out and perhaps had analyzed her psychology thoroughly, but Xie Wan Ning was not convinced.

She was unwilling to be manipulated and entangled by him again.

Who said she only had two choices?
There seemed to be several footsteps coming from the howling wind outside. When Lu Ziyan frowned and looked over, Xie Wan Ning took the opportunity to raise his hand and swung the dagger down fiercely.

The blade was facing his chest.

Suicide is too ugly, and she only has that much courage, so she only dares to stab herself in the chest.

But even so, the blade of the dagger failed to pierce her heart. Lu Ziyan's reaction was extremely fast.

Almost the moment she raised her hand, he stood up as fast as lightning, grabbed her wrist, and with a force, the sharp dagger fell to the ground.

The next moment, Xie Wan Ning was pinched by his neck and pressed on the table.

"What do you want to do?" His eyes were bloodshot, his pupils trembled nervously, and he gritted his teeth like a mad beast, "What do you want to do!"

"Can't you see?" Xie Wan Ning smiled at him with her neck stiffened. "I would rather die than be entangled by you for the rest of my life. Why should I only have the two choices you gave me? Have you forgotten that everyone can decide their own life and death?"

life and death!

The hand on her neck was shaking. Lu Ziyan stared at her intently, his expression changing for a while, and finally he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Who told you that everyone can decide their own life and death?" He had blood between his teeth, looking extremely scary. "Do you know how your eldest cousin and aunt begged me to give them a quick death? They want to die more than anyone else, but they can't. Wanwan, do you want to try?"
