The wicked imperial concubine is courting death again; the comments section teaches her how to win w

A crack finally appeared in Qin Yuanchao's composure. "How is this possible!"

Arsenic is a highly toxic substance with virtually no antidote.

Xie Ling clearly fell off the cliff in front of him after being poisoned, how could she still be alive?

With Xie Ling back, everyone seemed to have found a pillar of support, and even their breathing became more steady.

"Brother... you're still alive! I knew you wouldn't die so easily, sob sob..." Xie Changqing cried tears of joy, his face covered in tears, which he didn't bother to wipe away.

Even though she already knew Xie Ling was alive and well, Qi Yitang still wanted to cry.

She didn't know how she got through the two-month separation.

Finally letting her guard down, she nestled comfortably in Xie Ling's arms, "Yanzhi..."

Her face had become thinner and sharper, her chin was smaller than before, and there were dark circles under her eyes.

Xie Ling felt a pang in her heart, lowered her head, and kissed Qi Yitang's forehead.

Xie Changqing: "..."

Very well, it's still the same old brother and sister-in-law formula, still so lovey-dovey and oblivious to everyone else.

Seeing that the two still had time to exchange glances, Qin Yuanchao's expression darkened. "So what if you're not dead? You're all going to die here today anyway. Xie Ling, I'll make you die again!"

Xie Ling found it amusing. "You didn't think I'd been playing around all this time, did you?"

Qin Yuanchao's voice hardened slightly. "What do you mean?"

Li Fengyao continued, "What I mean is—the gunpowder you planted beforehand has already been dug up by us, and your so-called forces that breached the imperial city, as well as these secret guards, have all been wiped out."

"Let me make this clear, Qin Yuanchao, you have already lost. If you surrender now, perhaps you can at least leave with a whole corpse."

[As expected of a villain, Wago's staged death plan was brilliant.]

Qin Yuanchao's face grew ashen inch by inch.

"...What?"

Because of this scourge, Xie Ling, who had been separated from his wife for so long, didn't want to say a word more and just wanted to send him to meet the King of Hell as soon as possible.

"Take it down!"

Chi Zheng made a move, knocking the dagger out of Qin Yuanchao's hand and rescuing Ning Nishang.

The Scorpion Guard swiftly twisted his hands behind his back and pinned him to the ground. "Behave yourself!"

Qin Yuanchao was pinned down, half his face pressed against the cold blue bricks. He simply couldn't accept that the scheme he had painstakingly planned for so long had been silently and effortlessly foiled by Xie Ling.

Why?

On what grounds?

He is also a descendant of the dragon and phoenix, and should grow up in luxury and privilege.

If he had been born a prince and received the best education, he might not have been any worse than Xie Ling.

But he missed just one step—just one step, and he missed everything.

His single eye bulged with overwhelming hatred and resentment. Suddenly, a surge of power erupted from him, and he went berserk, snatching the sword from the guard beside him and lunging towards Qi Yitang and Xie Ling.

"Go to hell!"

A commotion arose as guards rushed forward, shouting, "Protect the Emperor!"

However, Qin Yuanchao hadn't even taken two steps before he suddenly stopped.

He slowly lowered his head, then turned around in a daze to look back. A dagger was stuck in his back chest, and blood was gushing out along the blade.

The person holding the dagger was—Ning Nishang.

"Xuan Niang..."

Qin Yuanchao's eyes widened in disbelief. "You..."

Ning Nishang was also startled by her own actions. She hurriedly let go of her hand and staggered back a few steps.

She killed someone.

Qin Yuan swayed, and before he could say anything, he collapsed to the ground with a thud, his remaining eye still staring blankly in her direction.

"Why...why..."

He never intended to hurt her; the kidnapping was just an act for others. He didn't understand why...

Her fingertips were stained with warm blood, and Ning Nishang's face was deathly pale. "I'm sorry... Brother Chao, I didn't mean to..."

But she stopped mid-sentence.

No, she did it on purpose.

Ning Nishang didn't know what was going on, but when she saw Qin Yuanchao about to seize the sword and assassinate her, she only had one thought in her mind: she couldn't let him hurt Tangtang. So she picked up the dagger on the ground and stabbed him straight at him.

It was his fault; he shouldn't have planted the explosives and planned to kill so many people.

He has gone mad to this point, and is no longer the Chao-gege she used to know.

Blood gushed from the wound, flowing more and more. Qin Yuanchao lay on the ground, his eyes unfocused, but he reached out with difficulty, as if trying to touch Ning Nishang's clothes.

But Lu Linbai kicked it away.

He is Xuan Niang's rightful husband, and this shameless slut who destroyed his family should have died long ago.

"Xuan Niang, are you alright?"

Ning Nishang shook her head, wanting to say she was alright, but suddenly everything went black before her eyes, and her body went limp as she fell towards him.

"Xuan Niang!" Fortunately, Lu Linbai didn't faint this time. He caught her quickly, picked her up, and strode towards the door.

"Gan Si, go find a doctor!"

Xie Ling then instructed, "Chi Zheng, clean it up."

Chi Zheng replied, "Understood." She would not allow him any chance of coming back to life.

……

The traitor was executed, and Xie Ling was saved, much to everyone's delight.

On the way back to the palace, the others rode horses, while Qi Yitang and Xie Ling rode in the middle carriage.

Qi Yitang originally wanted to visit Ning Nishang at the Prince Anning's Mansion, but Xie Ling stopped her.

He asserted that she was not a doctor and did not know how to treat illnesses, so she would not be of any help even if she went.

Besides, Ning Nishang looked like she had just fainted from fright and was otherwise unharmed.

That makes sense, but since the female lead stabbed the second male lead and helped them get rid of a major threat, Qi Yitang should go and see him, both morally and logically.

However, on the other hand...

Xie Ling "came back to life," and she had finally managed to bring him back, so she didn't want to leave him.

Ultimately, Qi Yitang chose her husband over her cousin.

There's nothing we can do; she's probably been assimilated by love-struck thinking too.

Xie Ling felt relieved and pulled her closer to him. "Luckily, Tangtang isn't the kind of person who values ​​friends over romance, otherwise I would have had to pay her a heartbreak fee."

Qi Yitang hugged Xie Ling tightly around the waist, and couldn't help but punch him again. "You still have the nerve to say that? You even faked your death. Were you trying to scare me to death?"

Xie Ling felt wronged, "I clearly wrote a letter to Tangtang beforehand."

To prevent the information from leaking, he only used code words that the two of them could understand.

Arsenic is indeed highly poisonous, but with the antidote that his wife lovingly kept close to him, he was already fine and there was no way he could have died from the poison.

To others, it would seem like a suicide note, but he believed that Tangtang and he were of one mind and could understand it.

Qi Yitang glared at him. "Didn't you ever consider that someone might have seen the letter before me and then hidden it?"

Xie Ling only found out about this later. He almost caused Tangtang to have a premature birth. When he heard the news, his heart almost stopped beating.

Xie Ling cast a cold glance out the window.

As expected, I shouldn't have too high expectations for this younger brother; he's just as stupid as before.
