C15 Return to the Mansion

Hearing that she was going to send Du Jiuyue out of the house, Madame Du became happy again. She turned around and instructed the main butler to do it immediately.

"Is that Prince Qi's idea?" After the butler left, Madame Du eagerly asked Du Cangliang, "Once Du Jiuyue returns to the Mansion of the King, she will definitely die. I want to see if she can still be arrogant?"

"Alright, shut up!" Du Cangliang knew that Sima Qi would not let Du Jiuyue off easily, but he did not know about his daughter. If the Sixth Prince did not execute her and instead dragged her down with him, it would be troublesome.

He knew too little about this daughter of his. Thinking back to yesterday, when he was about to exit the Prince Qi's Palace, Sima Qi said that he had raised a good daughter, and his legs and stomach started trembling.

Seeing that Du Cangliang's expression wasn't good, Madame Du had no choice but to shut her mouth and carefully withdraw.

"… …"

Du Jiuyue had already quickly checked on Lily's body to confirm that there was no residual poison. She was also a little surprised inside, it seemed that this spiritual pill detoxification was indeed easy to use.

The Sixth Princess who had been submerged in the pig cage was sent back to the Prince Qi's Palace, and this matter quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys, and no one didn't know of it, nor did anyone not know of it.

No one could understand, but this was a matter of the royal family, and no one dared to discuss about it.

Of course, there were still idle people. For example, the princes …

"What's wrong with you, Sixth Brother? Are you crazy? That kind of woman still needs to be brought back to the clan? " Hearing this news, First Prince Sima Dao shook his head and sighed, "This really doesn't have the style of Sixth Brother."

"Ol 'Six won't let it go like this. I think that Miss Du Family will definitely suffer a great loss this time. " Fourth Prince, Sima Qi seemed to have thought of something and said, "The reason I pulled her out to soak in the pig cage was because I didn't want her to live."

"Indeed, Old Six is truly muddle-headed. That woman …" The Tenth Prince Sima Zhen sighed, but was interrupted by Sima Dao.

"I heard that Miss Du Family has some tricks up her sleeve." The First Prince Sima Dao stared at the Tenth Prince without anyone noticing. There were eyes, ears, and ears everywhere, so what could he say?

"Yeah, I heard so too. Even Du Cangliang was defeated." Sima Qi had a face full of smiles. He actually wanted to meet this Nine Miss Du Family.

"Her identity is different from before, even Du Cangliang can only admit defeat." Sima Zhen clapped his hands and laughed loudly. "Next, I think that there's going to be a show to watch for the Sixth Prince's Mansion."

The four women in front all died without a sound, but this time, Sima Qi was completely disgraced. In the end, Miss Du Family lost her reputation, but this disgrace came from Prince Qi's Palace. It really was like losing a man, then losing a soldier. Just the thought of it vented his anger.

"… …"

"Second Brother, what do you think?" Seventh Prince Sima Xiang had a face full of doubt. They were all dragons among men. To be able to survive in this palace meant that they were not weak. However, he still didn't understand. "What are you talking about?"

"Old Sixth has no other way out." Crown Prince Sima Qi said quietly, "This time, we've met a very powerful character who doesn't care about face. His methods won't work."

"Indeed." Sima Xiang gloated while nodding: "However, can Miss Du Family fight with him?"

"We just need to watch a good show." The crown prince's expression was indifferent as he lightly said, "This Ninth Miss Du Family is also not easy to deal with."

"To be able to use tens of thousands of silver to smash down those commoners is indeed extraordinary." "He has both the bearing and the scheming." Sima Xiang nodded with a smile on his face. Even if he were to throw these silver notes at the princes, he might not be able to do it so easily.

Crown Prince Sima Qi didn't say anything. He just sat there and started to cough. Then, the cough got worse bit by bit, as if he was going to die.

"Second Brother, are you - are you all right? "I'll call the imperial physician …" Sima Xiang hurriedly jumped up and ran out. He didn't even bother instructing the eunuchs and just personally ran out.

The Crown Prince raised his eyes to look at Sima Xiang's back as he ran away. His coughing slowly slowed down, but he didn't completely stop.

It wasn't until the imperial physician arrived and used the medicine as he always did that he finally managed to calm his coughing, but he could only obediently lie back down on the bed. This was how he had lived for more than twenty years.

Prince Qi's Palace, Du Jiuyue's palanquin carried in from the main entrance. Lily had been by her side the entire time, but she had started to feel uneasy the moment she entered the Prince Qi's Palace, because it was here that she was drugged and tossed into the Lanjiang.

Sima Qi stood in the inner yard and looked coldly at Du Jiuyue who walked out of the sedan chair. The look in his eyes was as cold as ice, and there was also a faint killing intent within them.

Du Jiuyue glanced at Sima Qi and ignored the killing intent in his eyes. She greeted him as if nothing had happened: "Greetings, Prince Qi."

She wanted to say, Go to hell, but she resisted.

Without saying anything, Sima Qi directly reached out his hands and pinched Du Jiuyue's slender neck. Then, a cold voice that seemed to come from hell rang out, "Very good, woman. Do you know what happens when you provoke me?"

"Ugh …" Du Jiuyue stretched out her hands and tried to break Sima Qi's hands. Her body was too delicate, so she didn't have enough strength.

His throat was gripped by a great force, and the feeling of suffocation and pain quickly spread through his limbs.

Her brain was racing. She didn't want to die.

Actually, with Sima Qi's identity, he wouldn't kill someone so easily. But Du Jiuyue had truly angered him.

The matter of immersing himself in the pig cage was originally very covert. This way, it would not embarrass him, Sima Qi, nor create any disagreements with Du Family. But Du Jiuyue was too detestable, to think that she was still alive after coming out of Lanjiang. Even more detestable, she had disgraced herself on the streets and even returned alive.

After throwing his Prince Qi's Palace, he, Sima Qi, had completely lost face.

He could still keep his cool in front of Du Cangliang, but when he saw Du Jiuyue acting as if nothing had happened, he could no longer remain calm.

Du Jiuyue, who was desperately struggling, saw Sima Qi, who had hardened his heart to kill her, so she gave up trying to break his hands. She took out a short sword from her wrist, ignoring everything else and moved quickly.

Under the cover of her wide sleeves, no one could see her movements. However, Sima Qi still noticed something was wrong.

One hand gripped Du Jiuyue's throat, the other struck her in the stomach. However, he was fast, and Du Jiuyue was even faster. The short sword was already pressed against his chest. With just a little bit of force, Sima Qi would have already splashed blood on the spot.

"Bitch …" Sima Qi's pride and dignity all disappeared. He cursed loudly, but the strength in his hands did not decrease. She wanted to crush Du Jiuyue's throat with her hand.

In the next second, Du Jiuyue's hand that was holding the sword also tightened as she glared at Sima Qi with eyes filled with hatred. Her face had already turned purple.

Sensing that the sword had pierced his skin, Sima Qi retracted his hand abruptly. However, he did not push Du Jiuyue away. Instead, he whispered into her ear, "This King will make you die an even worse death."

"Cough cough …" Du Jiuyue coughed hard, almost to the point of coughing her lungs out. Then, ignoring her image, she sneered. "Can you grow up to be bigger than me?"

She knew that her throat must have been damaged, and that the pain in her throat made her whole body tremble.

The two of them were very close because Du Jiuyue's short sword was still close to Sima Qi's chest.

"Use your sword to point at This King's chest. How long do you think you can live?" Sima Qi turned his face away in disgust and didn't look at Du Jiuyue. He never thought that Du Jiuyue would dare to come to him with a dagger in her hand.
