guess Grandpa Emperor is highly likely to force Fifth Uncle to hand over the military power of Beijiang, and... there's also a high chance he'll make him marry a woman.”"If Grandpa doesn't kill Fifth...An Xuetang's words also caused Xi Zi Panger, who was standing beside her, to raise an eyebrow.
After all, to her ears, An Xuetang's words sounded like a concession.
Thinking of this, she instantly became more confident.
I feel like I have a chance to defeat someone like Fengming today.
Perhaps, confident that her soldiers would be able to capture An Xue Tang and the others in one fell swoop, she was not in a hurry to make a move at this time.
He was just watching An Xuetang quietly, playing with her.
She glared at An Xuetang, sneering, "What does the North Frontier Princess mean by that Speak plainly, this palace wants to hear what you're capable of, to negotiate terms with this palace."
An Xuetang blinked, she glanced at Feng Ming, her eyes clearly conveying: elder brother, I'm sorry.
She didn't conceal her gaze at all, so not only did Fengming understand, but Xizi Pander who had been staring at her also understood.
So at this moment, Xizi's heart was filled with even more confidence.
At this moment, I couldn't help but look at the enchanting Phoenix Ming.
The thought that such a man would, from today onwards, belong to her, be at her disposal...
Thinking of the stunning beauty who would appear in her own princess's mansion, she couldn't help but feel excited.
She stared straight at Feng Ming's face, her desire unmistakable in her eyes.
As expected, just as she was excited, she heard An Xue Tang say, "My brother, his appearance is indeed good-looking. I reckon that keeping him by your side will surely bring honor to Your Highness."
Feng Ming: “......” Enough.
Actually, I don't want you to praise me at this time.
An Xuetang blinked again, then continued, “But my brother is so outstanding, just exchanging him for one of mine would be a bit too much of a bargain. Why not use my brother in exchange for the safety of all of us remaining Your Highness, what do you think Can this deal be made”
"!"
Feng Ming twitched the corner of his mouth. Although he had already guessed what she wanted to do, hearing her say it so plainly in front of him, wanting to sell him, made him feel incredibly uncomfortable.
He couldn't hold back any longer and immediately reached out to slap her on the forehead. He said angrily, "What are you saying In your eyes, am I so worthless"
An Xuetang revealed a helpless expression, raising her finger to circle the people surrounding them, and sighing, "Brother, you see, it's not that I think you're worthless, but right now...the situation doesn't give us a chance to survive."
Shaking her head helplessly, she said, "Since the princess has taken a liking to my brother and believes that our lives can be spared in exchange for his, besides this path, can your brother think of any other way"
"We're just a few of us, and we can't kill our way out. So after much deliberation, we can only burden our elder brother."
Originally, Xizi and P'er were listening to her feigned weakness. They found it quite amusing, but they never expected to hear An Xue Tang say the word "miserable".
She instantly got so angry that her hands clenched into fists, her eyes were slightly red, and she gritted her teeth, “What do you mean by feeling wronged This palace is at least the princess of Xiliang Country, the future empress of Xiliang Country.”
Her tone was as if she wanted to tear An Xuetang limb from limb, "Being able to climb onto this palace is the blessing of eight lifetimes earned by men in this world. Don't you know your place, being noticed by this palace is your honor."
An Xuetang had originally wanted to act nicely with her, but listening to her words, she couldn't help rolling her eyes and deliberately said something provocative:
"That's right, no matter what, this princess is the most renowned princess of Xi Liang and the one most likely to become empress."
"So, when the master's man is indeed not at a loss, but the bad thing is that Princess faces... it's really hard to accept."
"My elder brother, upon thinking of having to serve such a face, might feel some displeasure in his heart, and that is understandable."
"Your Highness, please don't worry. Let me try to persuade my brother again. I'm sure he will obediently wait for you to return. After all, I wouldn't want to die here either."
Knowing what Xizi Pan'er cared about and how to strike her heart, every word An Xuetang said pierced into Xizi Pan'er's heart.
She was furious, yet there was no way to refute it.
After all, her face was really not good-looking, especially compared to An Xuetang in front of her.
It's like comparing apples and oranges.
What's even worse, before Xizi Pan’er could retort after An Xue Tang finished speaking, Feng Ming from the side chimed in:
"Ah Tang, since you know what your brother cares about most is appearance, and you know the woman your brother likes must be breathtakingly beautiful, why would you sell your brother such a... terribly ugly woman How could your brother get over this mental hurdle"
"Faced with such a beautiful countenance, it's hard for me to eat. I'll starve sooner or later."
"!"
This statement is like rubbing Xi Zi's face into the dirt, making her so angry she wants to stomp her feet.
While Xizi's temper wasn't good to begin with, after hearing the brother and sister take turns provoking her, she unsurprisingly raised the whip in her hand.
The whip in her hand lashed out at An Xuetang.
And that's exactly what An Xuetang wanted from her sudden move.
Before Xizi Pan'er's accomplices could stop her, the whip she flung towards An Xue Tang was suddenly caught by Feng Ming.
Perhaps no one expected Feng Ming to be so fast, especially at this moment when not only Feng Ming made a move, but also Mo Yun Jing wearing a veil beside him also made a move at the same time as Feng Ming pulled the whip over.
Mo Yunjing's stone struck the horse beneath Xizi Panger, and with his other hand, he directly used his internal energy to draw Xizi Panger towards An Xuetang.
No one reacted.
Feng Ming and Mo Yun Jing were simply too fast. The moment the whip was flung out, it was also the instant that Xi Zi Pan Er was grabbed by the two without warning.
Realizing that Xi Zi Pan'er was in trouble, the soldiers around her didn't have time to react. Before they could even figure out what happened, Xi Zi Pan'er appeared in front of An Xue Tang.
Feng Ming directly pressed on her acupoints, leaving her unable to move.
An Xuetang, on the other hand, grabbed her by the neck with one hand, pressing a branch directly against the artery in her neck.
An Xuetang pinched her hand with great force, causing Xi Zi'han to let out a howl of pain and become completely red-eyed with anger. "You dare"
"! "
An Xuetang let out a chuckle, "How could we dare not Just now, Your Highness said that even at the brink of death, we were still so stubborn. This... I'm returning the words to Your Highness, At the brink of death, I wonder if Your Highness can still say something more stubborn"
As she spoke, her grip tightened. Xizi wanted to lash out, but with An Xue Tang's hand still clamped over her throat, there was no chance for words to escape.
Her face turned extremely pale from lack of blood circulation.
At this moment, the soldiers accompanying Xizi P'er finally reacted. Two guards even rushed over directly, trying to save Xizi P'er.
As one of them charged, he hadn't even reached the corner of Feng Ming's clothes when he was sent flying by a palm strike. The other was directly grabbed by the throat by Feng Ming.
Only Feng Ming's face remained expressionless. With a seemingly light twist of his hand, he snapped the guard's neck. an innocent look, "Since it's someone with ill intentions, this concubine naturally needs to prepare in advance, eliminate all dangers. What do you think, Fourth Prince"Glancing at the lost souls, Mo...
