Quick Transmigration: What's Wrong with the Yandere Male Lead? It's So Good!

Chapter 26: The Little Palace Maid Forcibly Taken by the Deposed Crown Prince

The carved mahogany table was laden with breakfast.

On a white porcelain plate are arranged thin-skinned, tender-filled steamed buns, and in a bowl is a bowl of warm rice porridge. On the side are shrimp and egg custard and several dishes of vegetables and meat, some cold and some stir-fried.

Xiao Huaiyan and Jiang Rangrang were having breakfast at the table.

However, some people's attention is not on the delicious breakfast.

The pale yellow color made her fair and radiant face stand out, and her delicate fingertips held a small spoon as she scooped up a little egg custard and put it into her mouth.

Instantly, her already rosy lips became glossy and looked even more alluring.

She moved her little mouth, picked up another xiaolongbao (soup dumpling), took a bite, and then put the remaining half in her mouth. Her little face was chubby and she looked exceptionally cute.

Jiang Rangrang was so engrossed in her meal that she didn't notice his gaze at all. She had no time to appreciate how delicious the ancient ingredients were, and how the food she made was truly wonderful.

Xiao Huaiyan swallowed hard and simply followed her eating. He ate whatever she ate, and sure enough, it tasted even better.

His dining manners were refined and elegant, unhurried and unhurried. The gloomy indifference that once lurked deep in his eyes had completely vanished, leaving only tenderness and doting.

She sat upright, dressed in a simple brocade robe, her long hair tied up with a black jade hair crown, her eyelids were thin, her eyes were long and narrow, and her lips were red and her teeth were white.

To anyone else, he was a handsome young man. There was no trace of the ruthlessness he displayed last night in personally ordering the massacre of more than a dozen powerful figures in the capital.

888 quietly popped up: [Host, the male lead ordered the slaughter of almost all his enemies last night, and this morning he ate breakfast as usual. His mental fortitude is amazing.]

Jiang Rangrang paused for a moment and silently responded:

[That's normal. He's not only the male lead, but also a powerful yandere; he's not someone you want to mess with.]

Jiang Rangrang was eating while chatting with the system when an uninvited group of guests arrived outside the Cold Palace.

The chaotic footsteps, mixed with the clanging of clashing armor, shattered the peaceful atmosphere.

The heavy, vermilion-lacquered wooden door was kicked open with a loud thud, the door frame crashing against the stone wall, dust and red paint falling to the ground.

The fourth prince was dressed in a crimson robe embroidered with gold pythons, with a sword hanging at his waist. His face was ashen, and his eyes were bloodshot.

If anger could materialize, he would surely be engulfed in raging flames.

He was followed closely by twenty fully armed bodyguards, each with a long sword at his waist and a wary, fierce look in their eyes.

Upon entering the Cold Palace courtyard, he went straight to Xiao Huaiyan's residence, clearly indicating that the Fourth Prince had made preparations in advance.

Even after these people had completely surrounded the courtyard, Xiao Huaiyan sat there motionless as if he knew nothing, watching Jiang Rangrang drink tea and rinse his mouth.

The Fourth Prince, Xiao Huaijing, received the devastating news of the Grand Tutor's tragic death last night, followed by a series of other bad news.

In one night, almost all the officials who supported him were killed. Combined with the other people who had been involved in the incident, all the clues pointed to Xiao Huaiyan, who had been deposed as crown prince and was now in the cold palace.

He was filled with grief and indignation that night, and at dawn he immediately gathered his trusted guards and stormed the palace to search for the person. Haha, his father did not stop him after all.

Xiao Huaiyan! You only dare to use underhanded tactics, do you dare to do it openly!

"Xiao Huaiyan!"

The fourth prince shouted loudly, startling Jiang Rangrang.

Xiao Huaiyan quickly reached out and pulled the person into his arms, patting their back.

When the Fourth Prince entered, Xiao Huaiyan, who was more handsome and taller than him, was holding a stunningly beautiful woman with a slender figure in his arms.

This scene made him so angry that his head hurt.

He strode up to the two men, his chest heaving with extreme anger, his gaze fixed on Xiao Huaiyan like a poisoned blade.

"The Grand Tutor died suddenly and tragically at home last night. Did you commit this?"

The accompanying guards surrounded the Fourth Prince, their hands on the hilts of their swords, waiting for the Fourth Prince's order to seize Xiao Huaiyan.

Xiao Huaiyan gently patted Jiang Rangrang's back, looked up at him, his dark eyes remaining completely calm, and said in a flat tone, "It's me."

Those two short words completely baffled the Fourth Prince.

They admitted it?

He just admitted it like that?

This is completely different from what he expected before he came!

After realizing what was happening, the Fourth Prince was so provoked by this blunt admission that his temples throbbed, and he abruptly drew his sword from his waist.

"Xiao Huaiyan! You ruthless and heartless traitor to the royal family, I will kill you on the spot today to pay for the lives of those who died unjustly!"

The fourth prince roared, gathering strength in his arm to thrust forward.

Jiang Rangrang froze, much more nervous than Xiao Huaiyan, mainly because she was in his arms, blocking his way!

She gritted her teeth, hugged Xiao Huaiyan's waist tightly, and buried her face against his chest.

Xiao Huaiyan parted his thin lips slightly, his voice low and indifferent, uttering three words as if saying "Good morning": "Dispose of it."

The fourth prince's wrist was immediately pierced by an arrow. With his scream, the group of guards who had been so arrogant and ready to strike were all captured.

The moment they saw Wu Hui appear, their faces turned deathly pale, and they could no longer hold their knives.

Who doesn't know Wu Hui? A silver ghost mask, a black and silver flying fish robe—anyone targeted by Wu Hui never survives.

The mere mention of the name "Wu Hui" in the capital terrified all the powerful and influential people there, for it turned out they were actually the deposed crown prince's men.

Two undefeated assassins quickly stepped forward. One of them pressed down hard on the fourth prince's shoulder, while the other took out a rough rope and tied him up without saying a word, then gagged him.

The fourth prince's eyes were wide open, his face filled with resentment and fear, as he struggled desperately.

But his strength was useless against the well-trained, unyielding assassins; he could only make muffled whimpers as he was dragged away.

The group that had been making a lot of noise just moments before was taken away in an instant, and the quiet courtyard returned to silence, with only messy footprints on the ground as proof that everything that had just happened had indeed occurred.

The footprints were gone, and Laifu led his men out and quickly cleaned up the place, restoring the courtyard to its original state.

Jiang Rangrang's face finally left Xiao Huaiyan's chest muscles. She turned her head away, as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Huaiyan was amused by her cute appearance and reached out to pinch her little cheek gently.

"Your Highness, wouldn't it be troublesome to just deal with him like that?"

That's a prince, after all. If things continue like this, won't he end up with the old emperor exchanging favors?

Wait, isn't this just a sadomasochistic romance novel? Is this development correct?

"No trouble at all, he's just a pawn sent to test us."

Ah, his father, let's not even mention him.

The two continued drinking tea, but Jiang Rangrang secretly started discussing something with 888.

[However, I remember that even if a prince committed a serious mistake, at most he would be demoted, imprisoned, or at worst reduced to a commoner.]

The Fourth Prince, Xiao Huaiyan, was killed just like that? This novel world is too far-fetched.

888, with a face full of rabbit expressions, said: "[Host, the male lead didn't take his life, but it would have been better if he had been killed.]"

Because the male protagonist had the fourth prince sent to a brothel to entertain customers.

Jiang Rangrang, who was drinking tea, choked and coughed violently upon hearing this.
