Benedict!
The sharp dagger flew dangerously over Calm Zhen's head! Then he penetrated the ground next to her hard!
A strand of black hair fell from her eyes.
Rong Zhen's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something.
Any later, and she would really die here today!
Chu Liuyue looked at Rong Zhen's frightened face for a while, and then asked slowly:
"There is no longer any relationship between Rong Jin and me, and any secrets related to him have nothing to do with me. Why do you think you can exchange for your own life with such a secret?"
"Yes! Yes! It must be possible! I promise, you will definitely be interested in this matter!"
Rong Zhen was afraid that Chu Liuyue would regret it, so he spoke very fast.
Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows with interest.
"oh?"
Rong Zhen's eyes were full of panic, but when he spoke to Chu Liuyue, he still looked confident.
"Really! If you really don't care after what I say, it's not too late to kill me! Anyway, my life and death now depend on your thoughts, right?"
Chu Liuyue raised her chin.
"tell me the story."
Rong Zhen took a deep breath and swallowed back the thick blood in his throat.
The smell made her nauseous, but at this moment, she would never dare to do anything inappropriate in front of Chu Liuyue.
".Do you know that my father and His Majesty the Xingluo Kingdom want Situ Xingchen and Rong Jin to marry?"
Upon hearing Situ Xingchen's name, a dark light flashed across Chu Liuyue's eyes.
"There were no rumors about this news before, how did you know about it?"
Seeing that Chu Liuyue seemed to be interested in this matter, Rong Zhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"Because I accidentally heard this from my mother. But neither she nor Rong Jin knew that I knew about it."
Chu Liuyue nodded clearly.
That's not impossible.
After all, Rong Zhen is the Queen's biological daughter, and she has always had close contacts with Rong Jin, so it is not surprising to hear this.
"My fair lady, a gentleman likes to be brave. Rong Jin is lucky to be able to marry Situ Xingchen."
Chu Liuyue said softly.
She meant what she said.
Although Situ Xingchen didn't give her very good senses, in other aspects, Situ Xingchen was indeed outstanding.
Whether it is appearance or talent, he is one of a kind.
Even her identity is more noble and stable than Rong Jin's.
Although Rong Jin was born as a prince, after experiencing a series of twists and turns in recent times, his position has long been in jeopardy.
Emperor Jiawen's patience with him is probably running out, and the other princes are also very good and can replace him at any time.
For example, the third prince Rong Jiu.
That man had always been Rong Jin's fierce rival, even though he had been reclusive and quiet during this period.
However, Chu Liuyue didn't think that a man who had fought on the battlefield since he was a teenager and had made great military exploits would give in so easily.
He was just waiting for the right time.
Some time ago, Rong Jin was suddenly placed under house arrest and deprived of many rights. It seemed to be related to the third prince.
On the other hand, Situ Xingchen, as the eldest princess, does not have to compete for the throne, but she has extremely high prestige and status in Xingluo Kingdom, even compared to those princes.
The marriage between the two would be of great benefit to Rong Jin.
"Rong Jin did not ask to marry Situ Xingchen. This marriage was proposed by the Xingluo Kingdom!"
Rong Zhen emphasized his tone and spoke word by word.
This really surprised Chu Liuyue.
"Why?"
"This is the secret I want to tell you!"
Rong Zhen looked at Chu Liuyue nervously.
"Do you want to hear this secret now? If you want to know, then... you must swear that you will not kill me! Nor will you torture me in other ways!"
The corners of Chu Liuyue's mouth curled up slightly.
"Are you negotiating with me? Do you have the qualifications?"
Rong Zhen choked, then gritted his teeth and said:
"I know I didn't! But if you don't agree, then I will end it myself without you having to do anything!"
Chu Liuyue looked at her lightly.
"The dagger is right next to you."
Rong Zhen didn't seem to expect Chu Liuyue to give such a straightforward answer, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"You don't want to know the reason for this!? There is a huge secret behind this!"
Chu Liuyue nodded candidly:
"Of course I want to know. But - I hate it even more when others bargain with me, especially someone like you."
As she spoke, she glanced at the sky.
"If you really want to take action, you'd better hurry up. It's almost evening now. I still have to go back and have dinner with my dad."
Rong Zhen had a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, and his face turned red.
"you!"
She angrily pulled out the dagger and put it against her neck.
"Chu Liuyue! Let me tell you! If you don't listen to this secret, you will definitely regret it!"
Chu Liuyue seemed as if she hadn’t heard:
"Oh, by the way, although the dagger is sharp, if you cut it in the wrong position, it may take a long time to bleed to death. The place you place it now is a bit lower, go up a bit."
Rong Zhen's eyes suddenly turned black in anger.
She was already injured, and there was no part of her body that was not in pain. Now when she heard these words from Chu Liuyue, she was really about to collapse completely!
She clenched her teeth, her hands trembled, and the scene of the confrontation between her and her mother a few days ago suddenly appeared in her mind.
Those harsh words were still like sharp knives, piercing her heart!
A trace of despair flashed in Rong Zhen's eyes.
She used to be talented and loved, but she became a useless person overnight and lost everything!
But just because she can no longer do anything to help Rong Jin, in the eyes of the queen mother, she becomes a waste! Became a thorn in the side!
Even if she died here today, no one would care.
Thinking of this, she slowly closed her eyes, a tear flashed from the corner of her eyes, and then waved her wrist!
puff!
Just when the dagger was about to cut through her aorta, a stone suddenly flew out of Chu Liuyue's hand and hit Rong Zhen on the wrist!
Her hand suddenly went numb, and the dagger deviated from its original direction and fell.
laugh!
There was a bloodstain on Rong Zhen's neck, but fortunately it was shallow and not life-threatening.
She looked at Chu Liuyue with dejection and despair:
"What do you want to do!?"
Chu Liuyue looked at her with interest.
It has to be said that although Rong Zhen did many evil things and was arrogant and domineering, he was more courageous than Rong Jin.
If it were Rong Jin who faced this situation, he wouldn't even have the courage to hold a dagger.
From this aspect, Rong Zhen is still better than Rong Jin.
"The secret you mentioned can be told now."
Rong Zhen was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of doubt:
"Really? Are you...are you sure you won't kill me!?"
Chu Liuyue nodded.
"certainly."
