Reborn Pretty Demon Concubine

Chapter 317 I'm Not That Ruthless

"what happened?"

Standing in front of the palace, the snow in the sky was still floating wantonly, covering their bodies and heads with a thick layer.

On such a cold day, with the snow covered all over, hearing the bad news before entering the door, it really makes people feel very heavy.

"The second prince was attacked last night. When we saw him, he was covered in blood and fell to the ground. He just said let us find you, and then fainted, but we don't know how to find you. Fortunately, you coming."

Seeing Xia Jinmo, the palace maid felt less anxious before, and seemed to have found a savior.

"Take me to see."

Hearing this situation, Xia Jinmo almost didn't think about the reason, and asked the maid to lead the way to see Ziyue's situation.

"But, this..." But the court lady couldn't recognize Han Jian, so she hesitated.

"He is my husband-in-law, hurry up and lead the way." Xia Jinmo didn't have time to chat with her, so he introduced him casually and urged her.

On a very cold day, Xia Jinmo's nose and face turned red as if soaked in pepper water, and the exhaled air formed a cloud of mist in front of her face.

Although the girl was still hesitant, Xia Jinmo was urging her urgently. In the end, she also made up her mind and led them into Ziyue's bedroom.

In fact, the situation couldn't be worse than it is now. Ziyue was lying on the bed with no blood on her feet, her eyes were tightly closed, and her breathing was very weak.

There were four or five sword wounds on his body, the wounds were not very big, not fatal, and he should have stopped the bleeding in time, so there was no sign of excessive blood loss.

"It's an internal injury." Xia Jinmo said softly, Han Jian nodded, raised his hand, and began to heal his wound with a burst of fighting energy.

Xia Jinmo took a elixir and stuffed it into his mouth. The elixir won't work very well. It was refined when she first started practicing. It has no grades, and it just barely took shape.

"Be careful."

When Xia Jinmo was feeding Ziyue the elixir, she suddenly noticed a murderous aura approaching, so she quickly reminded Han Jian, and the glove in her hand quickly floated out.

Han Jian was using fighting energy to heal Zi Yue's wounds, so naturally he didn't have time to look around too much, but when Xia Jinmo stabbed towards Han Jian with a sword, he raised his head and popped out the sword, resisting the opponent's sword.

"Who dared to break into the palace, did he not want to live?"

When Xia Jinmo flicked back the sword that flew suddenly, a man walked in from the outside.

It seems that this person is not young anymore, and his fighting spirit level is not weak, but he is definitely not here to help Ziyue.

Judging by the way he attacked people sneakily, he is definitely not a gentleman.

"You still know this is the royal palace." Xia Jinmo's voice turned cold, and then she guarded Han Jian and Zi Yue behind her.

That person kept walking forward, and if Xia Jinmo went any further, he couldn't guarantee whether there would be any aftermath that would hurt the two of them.

So when she saw that the man ignored her and continued to walk forward, she hurried forward a few steps, and then quickly let out a cloud of fighting spirit.

"Looking for death." The man cursed, and then hurriedly backed away.

But when he retreated to almost the same position, suddenly a few more people came in, and together they resisted Xia Jinmo's fighting spirit.

Before Xia Jinmo could make a second attack, someone took a step ahead of her and slapped her.

This palm was very powerful, and it used at least [-]% of the fighting energy of a Dou Huang.

Douhuang, there are only two people in this palace, one Ziyue, who is lying on the bed injured now, needless to say, it must not be him.

The other is his elder brother Zi Yuan, there is no doubt that the person who came was Zi Yuan.

But Xia Jinmo didn't understand why Tui was so blatant, but she understood after thinking about it.

After all, Ziyue is seriously injured now, he wants to kill Xia Jinmo and the others, and then kill the seriously injured Ziyue.

At that time, they would say that Xia Jinmo and the others broke into the palace privately and deliberately killed Ziyue.

In that way, they not only successfully got rid of their confidant's serious troubles, but also won the hearts of the people for themselves.

As expected, he was ruthless enough, this Zi Yuan was not only scheming, but also more ruthless than his younger brother.

"It really is you." Xia Jinmo said coldly after a long time.

In fact, when the maid said that Ziyue was injured, he had doubts?
Because there are only two people who can cause him any harm in this palace, if it is not a gang fight, then it is probably Zi Yuan.

Xia Jinmo carefully looked at Ziyue's wound, it was not caused by multiple people, and there was no sneak attack wound.

Therefore, it is speculated that it must have been caused by a head-on battle with someone, and that person is only Zi Yuan.

Because of their father, no matter what, he still wouldn't personally take action to deal with his son.

Tiger poison does not eat children, even if he doesn't like Ziyue, it is impossible to kill him himself.

In addition, if he really did it himself, he would have to consider a lot.

If he can succeed with one blow, there will be nothing to say, and there will be no need to pursue this matter.

But if he misses and lets Ziyue escape, all his scandals will be made public.

What's more important is that this was said by his own son, which is simply more painful than killing him.

Zi Yuan is more impulsive in his actions. Xia Jinmo discovered this when his son-in-law was killed and saw him in the mourning hall, but he did not expect him to be so impatient.

In fact, King Ziluo has only Ziyue and his two sons, and Ziyue is the second son. According to the rules here, the inheritance rights are from the eldest to the second.

If he doesn't reject being king, sooner or later the Ziluo Kingdom will be his, so there's really no need to mess around.

But he didn't seem to be able to wait, and he didn't seem to be at ease if he didn't kill Ziyue.

He is only relieved that all the other sons of the king are gone except him.

"Since you know, there's nothing to hide." Zi Yuan approached Xia Jinmo triumphantly, holding a long sword in his hand.

Not at all afraid that Xia Jinmo saw his face clearly and panicked.

"After poisoning your own mother, you killed your brother. Why are you so cruel?"

Xia Jinmo knew that the outside world must have been controlled by Zi Yuan long ago, that's why he spoke so confidently at this moment.

Now it is estimated that if you ask him anything, he will answer, so that the people inside will understand clearly and suffer the pain of being killed.

"I'm not that ruthless. I just wanted to kill that woman. I didn't expect her brother to drink the poison by mistake, and that girl of yours happened to be so unlucky, so I just wanted to find a substitute."

Sure enough, Zi Yuan did not disappoint, and answered Xia Jinmo's words, but he dragged the topic far away when he opened his mouth.

"Since we've let her go, it's better to pretend that nothing happened. Why do we have to investigate and not give people a chance to live?"

Zi Yuan suddenly seemed to lose control of his emotions, but he had to say that he was actually quite sad, because no one had investigated Fan Jie's matter long ago.

It means that I was cheated, and the mobile phone that I used for only half a year started to freeze again. It took me almost an hour to update smoothly. I'm sorry, it's a little late today.
