Chapter 412: Chapter 410: Little Prince Kicks Over the Poisoned Wine_1

The wise man was already dead.

Believe it or not, it had to be believed.

What, go to the dead for verification?

“Someone, bring wine!”

The Empress was secretly angry and ordered someone to bring the poisoned wine and place it in front of Lin Qingluo.

“Your Majesty!”

The Old Master was greatly shocked, his breath almost stopping.

“This glass of wine contains five different poisons. Once you drink it, your throat will be ruined, you’ll become mute, and live the rest of your life as a cripple.”

The Empress gave a gloomy smile: “Since the Duke of Zhen’s mansion is truly loyal and has no intention of rebelling, drink this glass of poison wine and I will believe you.”

“Your Majesty, when the Grand Ancestor bestowed the life-saving token, he wanted her descendants to remember the loyalty of the Lin Clan’s military officials, so that at a critical moment, the lives of the Lin Clan’s disciples could be saved.”

The Old Master was furious and argued on the grounds of reason.

“The life-saving token only saves her life.”

The Empress sneered and gave a mocking smile.

“I can spare her life, but she must become a cripple. I will not allow anyone to threaten the position of the Crown Princess.”

“Master, let’s set fire to the Imperial Palace and break out!”

Little Kingfisher was standing on the eaves, listening to the conversation inside the hall, itching to burn the Empress to death.

“You go to the southwest corner of the hall to start the fire, and I’ll deal with the eight Qilin Guards.”

Lin Qingluo quickly made a decision.

Since the Empress was relentless and determined to put her in a hopeless situation.

There was no need to be polite to her.

No one could turn her into fish on the chopping board!

“Empress Mother, don’t!”

“Don’t make Sister drink the poison wine!”

Before the Little Kingfisher could answer, a staggering figure suddenly appeared in the hall.

The Little Prince’s eyes were filled with tears, and he cried hoarsely as he ran to Lin Qingluo, kicked over the wine glass containing the poisoned wine, and tightly embraced his sister while sobbing loudly.

“Someone, take the Prince away!”

The Empress’s face changed greatly. She forcefully slapped the table and stood up, scolding angrily.

“Yes.”

The attendants outside the hall were terrified out of their wits.

They had been guarding outside the hall and failed to notice when the Little Prince had sneaked in.

Someone had to brave the Empress’s angry, trembling courage to come in and try to carry the Little Prince away.

“No, I won’t go. I want to stay with Sister.”

The Little Prince cried hoarsely, hugging his sister’s neck tightly.

A warm current welled up in Lin Qingluo’s heart.

Her little brother, whom she had doted on since childhood, did not disappoint her. At the critical moment, he dared to confront his Empress Mother to protect his sister.

An attendant approached, trying to forcibly drag the Little Prince away.

“Get lost!”

With a flick of Lin Qingluo’s arm, an invisible sword Qi sent the man flying forcibly.

“Someone, this woman dared to threaten the Little Prince, execute her on the spot!”

The Empress was furious and revealed her ferocious appearance.

“Fire, the Mental Cultivation Hall is on fire.”

The Mental Cultivation Hall suddenly burst into flames, with scorching heat rushing towards their faces, instantly enveloping the entire hall.

“Old Master, let’s go.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyes were cold as she waved her hand and scattered a handful of silver needles, shooting them in eight different directions.

“Puff, puff.”

Eight silver needles pierced the skin with a faint sound, coming from eight locations simultaneously.

The eight concealed Qilin Guards within the hall were hit at the same time, their acupoints controlled, unable to move.

Lin Qingluo moved swiftly. Before the Empress could react, she flashed past, carrying the Little Prince and Old Master out of the Mental Cultivation Hall.

“Your Majesty, there’s a fire, Xinzi will take you out.”

Noble Lord had come to the Mental Cultivation Hall unknowingly and had been watching in secret.
