Chapter 941 - Your Majesty, Please Spare My Life! (1/2)
“Ah… what are you trying to do?”
Wu Yuenian was shocked. According to her plan, as long as she revealed a little of her body, Zhao Xianlong would catch them in bed. Then she would shift the blame onto him. It was enough to say that she was being molested by him.
Zhao Xianlong would definitely kill Qin Haodong in his rage.
However, she never thought that the young man in front of her was much bolder than she expected. Originally, she just wanted to reveal a little, but now the upper part of her body was bare.
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Don’t you want to seduce me, Your Majesty? I certainly have to cooperate with you.”
After saying that, he pressed Wu Yuenian underneath his body and began to take advantage of her.
“Ah… Help! Help! Hurry up, come and help me!”
Wu Yuenian was really panicking now. What would she do if Zhao Xianlong and others saw her like this? How could she ever have the face to stay in the palace?
“What are you shouting for? Isn’t this what you want?”
Qin Haodong smiled. At this time, he was keenly aware that Zhao Xianlong and the others had quickened their pace when they heard the screams. They were rushing to the resting palace.
Feeling that it was almost time. He focused his Spirit on Xiahou Hongxiang, who was watching secretly outside the door. Then, with a thought, he activated the Qimen Displacement Technique.
Xiahou Hongxiang was standing guard in the corner with his men. When he heard the shouts inside and saw Zhao Xianlong and the others rushing in, he could not help but smile complacently.
“Qin Haodong, let me see how you will survive this time. You will be cut into pieces because you disrespected Your Majesty.”
Just as he was thinking in his heart, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. Two white quivering mountain peaks appeared in front of him.
“Ah? What’s going on?”
It was impossible for Xiahou Hongxiang not to know what was before him. He struggled and wanted to stand up. However, his hands just so happened to touch the two mountain peaks.
“Ah… bastard! Let go of me quickly. Or, His Majesty will cut you into pieces!”
Wu Yuenian was struggling desperately with her eyes closed. She had no idea that the person pressing on her had been replaced by Xiahou Hongxiang.
“Your Majesty!”
After realizing that the woman underneath him was the Queen, Wu Yuenian, Xiahou Hongxiang was scared out of his wits. He even forgot to get up.
Took advantage of the Queen! That was really going too far!
Just at this moment, Zhao Xianlong and the others charged in. Seeing this scene, he immediately let out a furious roar. “What… what are you doing?! Get up quickly!”
When he saw them, Zhao Xianlong was livid and trembled with anger.
Princess Xingyue was behind him. Seeing the scene in front of her, Zhao Xingyue also cried out in disbelief, “What are you doing? You are so shameless!”
After Qin Haodong was called into the palace by Wu Yuenian, she felt worried. Thus, she went into the palace to find Zhao Xianlong. They came here together to help Qin Haodong out. However, she didn’t expect to see such a thing.
Only then did Xiahou Hongxiang come to his senses. He hurriedly got out of bed and knelt on the ground with a plop. He was trembling with fear and shouted, “Your Majesty, please spare my life! Please spare my life…”
Wu Yuenian pulled a bedsheet over her body and shouted desperately, “Your Majesty, please uphold justice for me. I was molested by him!”
Although she did not know why the person on her body changed to Xiahou Hongxiang, at this very moment, she didn’t care who it was as long as she managed to clear her name.
“No, it’s not like that…” Xiahou Hongxiang said incoherently, “Your Majesty, I don’t know what happened. I just appeared in Her Majesty’s resting palace…”
It was true that he still didn’t understand how he’d suddenly appeared on Wu Yuenian’s body when he was standing guard outside.
“Do you think I will believe you?”
Zhao Xianlong could not restrain his anger. He waved his hand and ordered, “Drag Xiahou Hongxiang out and behead him!”
As soon as he gave the order, the chief steward, Si Baokun, immediately rushed forward with several guards. They dragged Xiahou Hongxiang away.
“I’m innocent! Your Majesty, I’m innocent!”
Xiahou Hongxiang had taken great pains to prove his innocence when he was charged with plotting to kill the Princess. He had thought that he would be successful in his official career. However, he had never imagined that he’d end up getting his head chopped off in the blink of an eye.
How could Zhao Xianlong listen to his weak and insipid explanation? Si Baokun abruptly and directly cut off his head in no time.
Back in the resting palace, he said to Zhao Xianlong, “Your Majesty, I’ve killed that culprit!”
Clearly, Zhao Xianlong was still furious. He declared viciously, “Xiahou Hongxiang ignored the Tortoise royal family and offended the Princess time and time again. Pass on my order: All the assets of the Xiahou Family will be confiscated and its three clans will be exterminated!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Si Baokun responded and immediately sent people to do it.
Zhao Xianlong rebuked Wu Yuenian angrily, “As the Queen, you have done such a hideous thing. Tell me. What happened?”
“This…”
Wu Yuenian found that the excuse she had prepared was useless. Qin Haodong suddenly disappeared from this place. The person on her body was replaced by Xiahou Hongxiang.
She could only pretend to be pitiful and said, “Your Majesty, the old culprit suddenly wanted to molest me. It had nothing to do with me.”
Princess Xingyue said angrily, “He wanted to molest you? Where were the eunuchs, palace maids, and guards around you? Were they also driven out by that old culprit Xiahou Hongxiang? It’s obvious that you and that old culprit have done something shameful together!”
In the past, Wu Yuenian had always been the one who bullied Zhao Xingyue. Who would have thought that there would be such a huge reversal today? This kind of feeling made Wu Yuenian feel extremely uncomfortable. However, she had no way to fight back for a moment.
“I… Your Majesty, I have really been wronged!”
“Wronged? What is there to be wronged? You’ve completely caused the royal family to lose its dignity!”
Zhao Xingyue severely reprimanded Wu Yuenian. Then she turned to Zhao Xianlong and said, “Father, this kind of thing can’t be forgiven easily. Otherwise, our Tortoise royal family will have no face in the future.”
Zhao Xingyue was very smart and she hated Wu Yuenian to the core. Today, she finally seized the opportunity. She had to try her best to send this vicious woman to the 18th level of hell.
