and surging killing intent, and when he looked into the eyes of the singer, he already suspected that no matter how a person's face changes, their eyes will not.Hearing their conversation just now, t..."Miss Xiao Er, you absolutely should not have come here today! Once we get downstairs, don't blame the maidservant. If you must blame someone, blame yourself for coming here!" Yue'er held a dagger in her hand, her face grim as she approached the seemingly terrified Xiao Yuge step by step.

Xiao Yuge secretly prepared a poisoned dart. She wanted to lure Yue'er into the courtyard where Qian Yi'an and Xiao Yuge couldn't hear, ensuring a successful strike that would kill Yue'er instantly. At that point, even if someone inquired, she could lie and claim that someone had just saved her.

"I just found it strange, a maidservant who had always lived in the deep palace pouring tea and water, actually had such thick calluses on her tiger's mouth. Turns out they were caused by martial arts training."

"You, how did you know" The moon lowered her head to look at the tiger's mouth on her hand. Indeed, she had been careless. She let out a cold snort: "Miss Xiao Er, even if you see through it, what can you do Do you think you can still walk out alive"

"Really Shouldn't that be something I say" Xiao Yuge raised an eyebrow: "Since I can already tell you have martial arts, how could I not be on guard Let's make a bet, see who ends up lying down first, you or me"

"Die!" Yue'er gritted her teeth and brandished the dagger in her hand, charging towards Xiao Yuge.

"Stop!"

Just then, Qiansidun rushed over under Anling's guidance.

"Brother Sichen!" Xiao Yuge didn't expect Qian Sichin to arrive so quickly. She hurriedly retracted the poisoned needle in her hand and put on a look of surprise.

The moon did not expect the prince to suddenly appear. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, she could no longer complete Lady Shufei's mission. In a moment of desperation, she grabbed Xiao Yuge.

"Song'er!" Qian Sichin saw Xiao Yuge holding Song'er in her hand, and naturally stopped his steps: "Let her go, this palace can spare your life!"

The moon suddenly gave a wry smile: "Your Highness, I know that falling into your hands means certain death. I only want to go home and see my mother." If it wasn't for Consort Shu using her mother's sister as leverage, she wouldn't have made such a grave mistake.

"Alright! As long as you don't harm Ge'er, this palace will allow you to leave the palace and go home to see your mother!" Qian Sichin saw the knife against Xiao Yuge's neck, his heart was in his throat.

"Help! Help!" At that moment, a heart-wrenching cry rang out from inside the room: "Brother Sichin, save me! Save me!"

"F'er!" Qian Sichin instinctively stepped forward, but Yue'er helplessly blocked the door with Xiao Yuge in her arms. He had no choice but to stop.

"Your Highness, inside are the county princess and Prince Xian. Both of them have been given a love potion and will soon be unable to resist. The county princess and Miss Xiao Er, you choose one." Yue'er knew she couldn't escape death. She thought to herself that she hadn't completed Concubine Shu's task, so no matter what, she was going to die. Whether it was Miss Xiao Er or the county princess, they were both thorns in their master's side. If she could take this opportunity to remove either one for her master, perhaps her master would spare her mother and sister."

Xiao Yu Ge looked at Qian Si Chen, the scene was exactly the same, the same choice to make. She wanted to see, would this man ultimately choose who, would he still choose to give up on her like last time!

"Your Highness, time is running out! The people inside won't hold much longer!" Yue'er urged.

"Brother Sichen, save me! Save me!" Xiao Yufu's voice inside could also be heard as a heart-wrenching scream!

Qian Sichin looked inside, then her gaze fell on Xiao Yuge. The hand hanging by her side clenched tightly. Fu'er was the chosen daughter of destiny, she couldn't die, but Ge'er...

>

Finally, she slowly raised her hand and pointed it towards the room... Xiao Yu Ge's heart felt as if it had been doused with ice at that moment. Even knowing this was the outcome, what was she still hoping for He had abandoned her once again, and she should have him ripped to shreds!

"Prince, it seems you've once again chosen Miss Xiao." Yue'er let out a cold smile, her dagger slowly rising. "Miss Xiao Er, I apologize, but I'll have to trouble you to accompany me for a while!"

"No! This palace has chosen Ge'er!" But at this moment, Qian Si Chen’s hand swiftly pointed towards Ge'er.

"Your Highness! Our young lady is still inside!" An Ling, who had been quite proud just a moment ago, was also taken aback when she heard Qian Si Chen's words.

Qianshichen ignored her, instead coldly staring at the moon and growling, "Release Ge'er!"

>

The moon chuckled coldly, "It seems that the Crown Prince has made a different choice this time. Very well, as you wish!" With that, she shoved Xiao Yuge towards Qian Si Chen and took the opportunity to retreat inside.

“Song’er!” Qian Sichin tightly embraced Xiao Yu Ge in his arms. The feeling of finding what he had lost made him let out a long sigh of relief. Just now, he did think about saving Xiao Yu Fu, but at the last moment, his heart hesitated. He didn't want Song’er to hate him. The self-blame and guilt from last time hadn't dissipated until now, and he didn't want to be tormented like this anymore.

"Brother Sichen!" Xiao Yuge nestled in his arms, her heart filled with an indescribable feeling. She never expected that at the last moment, Qian Sichin would choose to save her. She thought he would abandon her again, just like last time.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Brother Sichun! Save me!" A scream came from inside, it was Xiao Yu Fu's voice.

"Sister!"

>

"Fēi'er!"

Qian Si Chen and the others rushed in, sure enough, they saw Xiao Yu Fu in disarray, being held by Yue'er.

"Yue'er, don't be foolish, let the county princess go!" Qian Yi'an shook his head forcefully, trying to clear his mind. His hands were still bound, even though they had turned purple from struggling, he hadn't been able to free himself.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Your Highness, it's my uselessness. I can't complete the tasks assigned by Your Lady, and I can't save my own mother and sister." Yuè'er's tears flowed down her face. She knew she absolutely couldn't live, so she wanted to take a gamble.

>

"Brother Sichen, help me! Save me!" Xiao Yufu was terrified.

This is a test.

>

"If you release the county princess, this palace can spare your life!" Qian Sichin approached them step by step.

"Your Highness, I am not afraid of death, but..." Yue'er hadn't finished her words when a sudden arrow flew from nowhere, piercing through her back and chest. Her body swayed!

Mingyang leaped forward to pursue the one who shot the dark arrow, and almost at the same time, Qian Si Chen sprang to his feet, kicking away Yue'er's dagger with a swift kick. He then immediately pulled Xiao Yu Fu into his embrace.

"Brother Sichen!" Xiao Yufu, still shaken, fainted into Qian Sichin's arms.

>>>

"F'er! F'er!" Qian Sichin called out to her anxiously.

Xiao Yu Ge stepped forward and took Xiao Yu Fu's pulse: "Brother Si Chen, don't worry, elder sister just got too scared. She'll be fine after a rest."

"Mm." Qi Si Chen nodded, handing Xiao Yu Fu to An Ling. "Immediately send the county princess back to her room and call for the imperial physician to attend to her properly."

"Yes!"
