79 Chapter 79 Exposing the Second Prince (1/2)
Inside the courtyard, the fifth prince finally arrived in front of the inner chamber's door. His skin started to crawl the moment he heard some men's groans coming from inside the room. The sound planted a seed of fear in his heart that is rapidly growing, consuming his every being. Fear that Lin Xulian is currently being tortured and taken advantage of. He didn't think twice and forcefully opened the door.
But what greeted him is the sight of several men groaning on the ground. Each of them have few but deep cuts in several parts of their bodies. What's puzzling though is the fact that they are not bleeding even just a drop and he thought; 'What sorcery is this?'
Feng Jun Yun is too shocked with the scene in front of him that he failed to notice Lin Xulian who slowly approached him from behind. The next moment he felt a sharp blade against his neck. ”Are you enjoying the view, fifth prince?”
”Xu--…S-sister-in-law?!” Feng Jun Yun almost slipped with the way he should address Lin Xulian. He didn't mind the blade against his throat. What caused him to be disoriented is the fact that Lin Xulian is too close to him. Even her breath brushes his ear and caused it to itch.
”I didn't expect you to be here, fifth prince. It's a pleasant surprise. I am a bit short of playmate. Did the second prince asked you to come?” Lin Xulian said while slowly pressing the blade harder drawing a bit of blood.
Finally Feng Jun Yun's attention diverted towards the blade on his neck after feeling a bit of pain. ”N-no sister-in-law, it was brother emperor who asked me to come. In fact I am here to get you out.”
”Feng Jun Yi did? Not bad. He brought me a playmate.” Lin Xulian then pointed towards the men on the floor. ”See that? Their blood coagulated pretty well. Even if I cut them up, it won't leave a mess. But they are still alive. Amazing right?~ It is like a double edge sword. If controlled, I can do operations without causing too much blood loss. But also as you can see, it can be used as a tool for torture. Would you like to try it?”
He was actually impressed with whatever drug Lin Xulia used but his skin crawled hearing her threat. ”N-no, no sister-in-law. Please believe me. I just came to save you.”
Lin Xulian just narrowed her eyes. She pressed his acupuncture points that caused him to be paralyzed and fell face first on the floor. ”You tried to kill me on my wedding day. Of course I cannot trust you.” Lin Xulian left him on the floor and sat on the bed. ”Big brother, how are things going on the emperor's side?”
Suddenly, Rui entered the room from the window while Feng Jun Yun looked at him with wide eyes. 'How long was he there?'. ”Big brother Huang took action and finished everything in an instant. Also there is a small problem. Almost all of the ministers came. This might ruin your reputation if they know that you were abducted. Although nothing happened to you, we can't control their thoughts.” Rui said worriedly.
Lin Xulian stood from the bed and approached the men and finally ended their agony. ”Who said I was abducted? It was just a fake news to lure the emperor, right fifth prince.” Feng Jun Yun got confused but still nod absentmindedly. ”Is there anyone available to clean these up big brother?”
