The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Sun Da and Sun Er were both taken aback.

I never expected His Majesty to say such a thing.

The two men thought that their expression was not clear enough and that they had failed to express Ren Tianye's domineering and arrogant behavior in the court, so they immediately said, "Your Majesty, you may have misunderstood."

"Ren Tianye is no less dangerous than Tuoba Xiang. According to the master, after arriving in the capital, Ren Tianye first tried every means to control Lu Qing and take away the power of the Imperial Guards. With the 100,000 elite troops he brought with him, he now commands an army of 300,000!"

"With this army of 300,000, he has become unstoppable in the court. Even Miss Gu Qingyue, who invited Ren Tianye into the city, can stop him."

"Ren Tianye called a donkey a horse, appointed himself Grand Commandant, and now he controls all matters of state, requiring all memorials to be reviewed by him before being sent to the Imperial Palace."

"His behavior is no different from that of a powerful minister."

Neither Sun Da nor Sun Er had much formal education, so their expressions were often unclear and lacked indignation. However, they believed that if they explained things clearly, His Majesty would understand.

After all, facts speak louder than words!

They are telling the truth!

An indisputable fact!

However, to the two of them's surprise, Xiao Mingzhao's eyes lit up as she listened, and towards the end, a look of emotion appeared on her beautiful face.

"I never expected this..."

"Over the years, I've found so many substitutes, though I've only ever glanced at them from afar and never truly fallen for them. I especially disliked Ren Tianye the most, but in the end..."

"The one who loves me the most is actually Ren Tianye!"

Xiao Mingzhao was so excited that he almost stood up: "I really can't imagine how much suffering he has endured in the Northern Frontier all these days to do so much for me..."

"I truly misjudged you before."

"Trying to mistake gravel for gold!"

"But they overlooked the fact that the gold was right beside them!"

Sun Da and Sun Er were even more confused.

However, the two were of lowly status, and it was only because Pei Jingzhi valued them that they had achieved their current situation. Otherwise, they would have just been refugees who starved to death in the wilderness. Knowing that their vision was limited, they felt that they could not understand His Majesty's grand ambitions.

However, I still couldn't help it.

"Your Majesty, are you mistaken?"

"Ren Tianye is a traitor to the country!"

"What traitor!" Xiao Mingzhao's expression suddenly changed. Having been in a high position for a long time, her movement caused an extremely strong aura to erupt from her body, which frightened Sun Da and Sun Er into quickly prostrating themselves on the ground.

She then said slowly, "Tenno, this is love for me!"

"All of this he did was to get my attention!"

"He's unwilling to accept it!"

"I'm not resigned to him being just a substitute!"

"He raised an army in the northern frontier, entered the capital, called a donkey a horse, and appointed himself Grand Commandant. All of this was just to get my attention."

"I……"

"Although I knew long ago that his devotion to me was no less than Zhan Shubai's, I never expected him to go to such lengths!"

"I am very pleased!"

Sun Da and Sun Er were even more confused.

But the two dared not say anything more, let alone offer any advice. They could only watch Xiao Mingzhao, who had stopped writing, with longing, hoping that he could finish writing the blood book quickly so that they could take it out.

After all, His Majesty's thoughts are extraordinary and can only be understood by someone like Lord Pei. They are merely messengers and should not presume to guess His Majesty's thoughts.

"I……"

Xiao Mingzhao was still immersed in her emotions and couldn't extricate herself for a while. Her phoenix eyes were hazy as she looked out the window, as if trying to see Ren Tianye's figure through the heavy night.

He said slowly, "Tianye, I am not a cruel person! I would never mistreat someone who truly loves me. I will give you an explanation for all your hard work over the years!"

"I will give you a chance!"

After murmuring these words, Xiao Mingzhao seemed to realize something and quickly began writing the blood oath again, since this was the key to whether she could leave the Yu Chen Mansion.

These days, she has increasingly felt that Tuoba Xiangtai is outrageous, even perverted. She often sighs inwardly that she has entrusted herself to the wrong person. Her heart has been constantly rebuilding after several collapses. Now she only longs to leave Yuchen Mansion and get far away from Tuoba Xiangtai.

However, the original plan was to write two letters written in blood.

One letter was naturally addressed to Pei Jingzhi, requesting that he find a way to rescue her. The letter also stipulated that Pei Jingzhi should be given great power, as only in this way could he mobilize the army to rescue her.

The other letter was to be delivered by Pei Jingzhi to her aunt, Princess Xiao Ruyi.

Entrusted by her deceased father, Emperor Xiao Ruyi bears the heavy responsibility of overseeing the country. Now that she is imprisoned, she needs a member of the royal family to step forward in order to bring Tuoba Xiangtai to justice and allow her to see the light of day again.

Xiao Mingzhao wrote these two letters extremely quickly.

After all, she had been thinking about these issues these past few days, and had been considering whether she could bribe a barbarian maid to help her deliver the message.

It can be considered to be thoroughly familiar with.

After writing the two letters and handing them to Sun Da and Sun Er, Xiao Mingzhao suddenly said, "Wait a moment, I need to write another letter in blood!"

Sun Er had already reached the door to investigate, constantly looking around with a tense expression. Upon hearing this, he was startled again and said, "Your Majesty, time is of the essence..."

"I know..." Xiao Mingzhao interrupted, "but this third blood letter cannot be left unwritten."

"My two ministers, please wait a moment."

"I, make this draft quickly!"

Sun Er had no choice; since His Majesty had spoken, he could only continue to peer through the doorway. Sun Da, on the other hand, knelt before Xiao Mingzhao, waiting.

But right now, it is clear that Xiao Mingzhao's index finger has turned slightly white, the blood has disappeared, and what remains is pale and almost transparent.

Immediately, Sun Da drew a dagger, severed his fingers, and let the blood drip down: "Your Majesty, use my blood!"

"No!" Xiao Mingzhao immediately refused. "How can such an important matter be handled with your blood? Wouldn't that make me appear insincere?"

"In this world, power can be deceitful, but a person's true heart should never be easily betrayed!"

As she spoke, she picked up the dagger, separated the other fingers, and carefully wrote on the torn hem of her skirt.

He wrote extremely slowly, almost to the point of carefully considering every single word.

The expression on his face was also very strange.

Sometimes she frowns slightly, sometimes she looks annoyed, and sometimes she shows a gentle, girlish demeanor.

He would write for half an hour at a time.

Sun Er was lying on the door, his back almost breaking, when Xiao Mingzhao finally finished writing the letter. She gently blew on it to dry the bloodstains, then carefully folded it up.

Give it to Sun Da.

"This letter is of utmost importance."

"After you two leave, you must hand them over to Ren Tianye."

"I'll say that I understand his good intentions, that I misjudged him before, but this time I won't be wrong again, and I will give him a chance!"

"Hopefully he can seize this opportunity!"

Sun Da quickly kowtowed and accepted it, holding it in his hands as if holding a mountain, feeling so heavy that he could hardly breathe.

Because he really didn't know how to describe His Majesty's words to Ren Tianye after he got out.

He felt he couldn't bring himself to say it.

However, now was not the time to dwell on such things. After kowtowing three more times to Xiao Mingzhao, he got up and prepared to leave with Sun Er.

Sun Er's expression changed drastically.

"Oh no, Takuba Shota is here."

"We're about to be discovered."

Sun Da's expression changed, and he peered through the door and window. Tuoba Xiangtai was walking away quickly, looking displeased and seemingly filled with anger.

This instantly put the two of them in an awkward position.

Taking another step forward, I'll run into Shota Takuba.

If we retreat, should we hide in the room?

But this is His Majesty's room. The two of them are just lowly servants. How dare they share a room with His Majesty?

The two were decisive, or rather, from the moment they received Pei Jingzhi's order to enter the Imperial Palace, they had already disregarded their own lives.

They exchanged a glance, and Sun Er burst through the door, rushing towards Tuoba Xiangtai. A sharp blade flashed with a cold killing intent in the dark night.

Tuoba Xiangtai was startled, but he was quite skilled in martial arts and quickly dodged. The next moment, the two barbarian maids following behind him rushed over from the left and right.

In an instant, they surrounded Sun Da.

In just a few moments, a sharp blade was pressed against Sun Er's chest, and the barbarian maid's scolding and Tuoba Xiangtai's furious outburst echoed in his ears.

But Sun Er didn't care at all.

Despite a sharp blade piercing his chest, he showed no fear; blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as he desperately shouted, "Protect the imperial edict!"

After shouting, he rammed his bare body against the sharp blade, causing it to get stuck in his ribs and immobilize him. With his last bit of strength, he grabbed onto the clothes of Tuoba Xiangtai and the two maids.

Blood and foam gushed from the corner of his mouth, but a hearty laugh spread across his face: "Boss, let's go—the Great Yu will never perish!"

The sharp blade rose again, its gleam gleaming.

It seemed that the brightness made the world momentarily dim.

After the blade struck, blood spilled from Sun Er's throat, and his body fell to the ground. But his eyes remained open, fixed on the direction in which Sun Da broke through the encirclement.

Their backs were ramrod straight!

Takuba Shota's rage had reached its peak. Looking in the direction Sun Da had fled, he roared like never before, "Chase him! Kill him!"

Unfortunately, after Tuoba Xiangtai shouted, he had no one else available except for the two maids beside him. He then realized that there were no guards in the inner courtyard of the Yu Chen Mansion.

Not only were there no guards, but the guard gate was also kept at a distance from the inner courtyard for a long time.

Now that he's shouting like this, even if the guards could hear him, they would absolutely not dare to rush in and chase after him.

and so……

He could only watch helplessly as Sun Da disappeared quickly into the darkness, his heart filled with rage like waves crashing higher and higher, and he suddenly turned around.

He strode towards Xiao Mingzhao's room.

Upon reaching the door, his usual gentle demeanor vanished, replaced by a face contorted with rage. He stretched out his foot and kicked the door violently.

The door wasn't locked to begin with, and with Takuba Shota's kick, it shattered into pieces in an instant.

Startled, Xiao Mingzhao inside the room suddenly jumped up.

Her phoenix eyes were filled with panic: "What, what, what's wrong with you now?"

Xiao Mingzhao questioned him, but subconsciously took a step back. She was really afraid of Tuoba Xiangtai. When he was normal, he was too normal, like a handsome young man, which made people like him instantly.

However, during this period of time, Takuba Shota has been acting strangely from time to time.

People who act erratically from time to time are the most frightening, because you never know which word or action will trigger their sensitive spots.

This caused Shota Takuba's emotions to be like the rain in June.

Just a moment ago, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle.

The next moment, lightning flashed and thunder roared, followed by torrential rain.

Xiao Mingzhao was exhausted.

"Xiao Mingzhao..." Tuoba Xiangtai didn't even call Xiao Mingzhao by her nickname Luan'er anymore, and directly shouted, "You really want to leave me that badly?"

"Um?"

Answer me!

"Do you really want to leave me that badly?"

"Am I that annoying to you?"

Xiao Mingzhao quickly said, "No, no, Shota, you're overthinking it..."

Shota Takuba interrupted him directly: "The person who came to tip you off has been captured by me. Are you still trying to deny it?"

Why are you trying to argue with me?

"Do you know that just now I received a message that the Ministry of Revenue has cut off all supplies to my barbarian army? My army outside the city has run out of supplies."

"The supplies for my Imperial Palace's ten thousand troops have run out!"

"Aren't you obviously forcing me?"

"You're forcing me to let you go!"

"Now they're even contacting you privately. Have you been paying attention to what I'm saying?"

"Do you really have to leave me?"

Xiao Mingzhao genuinely knew nothing about this.

The supply of provisions to the barbarian army was ordered by her personally. She did not order the Ministry of Revenue to stop the supply, so how could the Ministry of Revenue have done so?

Just as he was trying to figure it out, a volcanic eruption of anger surged across Takuba Shota's handsome face.

Tuoba Xiangtai pulled a memorial from his robes and threw it in front of Xiao Mingzhao, angrily saying, "Look at this yourself! These are the memorials your ministers have presented to you!"

"What did you say? I'll save you from this misery!"

"I'll rescue you from this hell!"

"I treat you with such sincerity, I'd give you my heart, so how come being with you is like being in fire and water?"

"and……"

Tuoba Xiangtai's face was burning with jealousy: "I specifically sent someone to investigate, and only then did I find out that it was Ren Tianye who wrote this letter to you!"

"Your stand-in!"

"Xiao Mingzhao, you still say you won't fall in love with a stand-in!"

"If he didn't, why would he have gone to such lengths to save you?"

Xiao Mingzhao stood there, stunned.

Ren Tianye?

She quickly picked up the letter and took a look. After many years, she could no longer remember Ren Tianye's handwriting. However, the characters written on the folded paper, though not handsome, were powerful and vigorous. If it was not written by a military officer, then who could it be?

So, Ren Tianye really did come to save her?

"As expected, as expected..." Seeing Xiao Mingzhao's expression, Tuoba Xiangtai completely lost his composure: "You really do have someone else in your heart, you really are going to leave me!"

"Luan'er..."

Shota Takuba's expression changed drastically, from anger to unbearable pain: "Why...why do you want to leave me?"

You said you'd only love me!

Why do you want to leave?

"If you're going to leave, I'll die right here!"

"I'll die right here in front of you!"

"Before I die, I'll kill you too, so you'll never change your mind!"

As he spoke, Takuba Shota pulled a knife from his pocket!
