Chapter 37: Feigning Unconsciousness

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Brother, I was there the whole time. It’s just as Yan Jiao said.” The purple-robed woman sat on the spot and fiddled with the small ornament in her hand as she spoke in a calm tone.

The man’s voice clearly turned cold. “Zhu Xue, you should know the consequences of lying to me!”

“Your Majesty, I didn’t…” Zhu Xue looked at Meng Ran for help, but she found that Meng Ran had already knelt in front of the King.

“Cousin, I’m also responsible for this. I knew that little sister Zhu Xue was impulsive and easily angered, but I didn’t stop her in time and even let her do as she pleased.”

When Meng Ran heard her name, she was afraid of being implicated. She took the initiative to jump out and knelt there to ask the man for punishment.

“This has nothing to do with you. Don’t worry, you won’t be implicated.” The man was expressionless as he said coldly.

“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Meng Ran heaved a sigh of relief, but she still knelt there and did not get up.

“You may rise.” The man said calmly and ignored Meng Ran. Instead, he walked towards Zhu Xue.

Yan Jiao did not know if she should follow him, so she stood still in the end.

“Your Majesty… ” Zhu Xue trembled in fear when she saw the King walking towards her.

Why is the plot going in the wrong direction?

Was the King not coming over to comfort her like all the times before when she did similar things?

Why did it look like he wanted to kill her now?

“Your Majesty, I… ” Zhu Xue still wanted to quibble. She did not believe that the King would be so heartless to her, but the man interrupted her, “Zhu Xue, you know the consequences of lying to me.”

The King’s words shattered Zhu Xue’s fantasy. Zhu Xue felt extremely aggrieved, but she still did not dare to bet her life on it. She weakly said, “What sister Yan Jiao said is the truth. I was too impulsive and thought that she was insulting me, so… ”

“Still trying to quibble?” The man’s face was frighteningly fierce, and the warm air around him seemed to freeze in an instant. Even the people around him who were watching the show froze on the spot like puppets, not daring to breathe too loudly.

Looking at the King, who was walking towards her ominously, Zhu Xue spat out a mouthful of blood. Her body softly lay in Ning Lu’s arms, and she actually fainted from shock.

“Young miss, young miss.” Ning Lu looked at Zhu Xue who had fainted and was at a loss. If she faced the king’s anger alone, she was afraid that she would be beheaded.

“Your Majesty, I don’t know anything. I’m just a servant girl. I don’t know anything.” Ning Lu was so frightened that she put down Zhu Xue and knelt there, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

“Miss Yan Jiao, I was wrong. Please forgive me. I won’t do it again. I don’t want to die. Please plead with the King for me. I know I was in the wrong wrong, Miss Yan Jiao.” In the end, Ning Lu was afraid of death. She did not care if Yan Jiao was a lowly human or not. She quickly knelt in front of Yan Jiao and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. She was hoping that Yan Jiao would soften her heart and plead for her.

Ning Lu, who had been standing behind Zhu Xue and always looked at Yan Jiao with contempt, was now kneeling in front of her in a sorry state.

Although Yan Jiao did not forgive her for her actions and did not want to plead for her, she still could not bear to see Ning Lu die in front of her.

“Why don’t you let her go? Although what she did was wrong, it wasn’t serious enough to warrant death.” Yan Jiao stepped forward and grabbed the man’s arm, and she pleaded for Ning Lu.

“As long as she never appears in front of me again.” Yan Jiao said in a soft tone.

Looking at Yan Jiao, the man’s expression softened.

“Thank you, Miss Yan Jiao. I promise that I will never appear in your sight again.” Ning Lu hurriedly knelt down and thanked her. Her forehead was already bleeding because she had kowtowed so hard.

After Ning Lu had finished kowtowing, she left her head on the ground and waited for the king’s orders. Even though Yan Jiao had pleaded for her, her life was still in the hands of the King.

“Get lost. What are you still doing here?” The man’s face was frosty, and his tone was icy.

When Ning Lu heard this, she immediately got up and ran out. She actually forgot about Zhu Xue who had fainted in order to survive.

“Take Zhu Xue away as well. When she awakens, both of you will receive your punishments together.”
