The Villain is Reborn! Princess Zhan goes on a killing spree in the capital

Chapter 257 Zong Kui's threats continue to increase

Originally...what's the relationship?

There was something wrong with this sentence coming out of Zong Kui's mouth. It seemed as if he met Su Jixue and Zhan Wang just to say this sentence and plant a thorn in their hearts.

Su Jixue lowered her eyes. She knew that Empress Dowager Xie was her mother, which meant that the late emperor was her father.

Su Jixue's grip on the wheelchair gradually tightened. It turned out that this was what Zong Kui was planning.

King Zhan did not say anything. In fact, he had already guessed it since Su Jixue discovered Zong Kui in the palace.

"It's actually quite interesting. There is a deep blood feud between two people, yet they have become friends for life and death." The malice in Zong Kui's mouth continued to grow.

You know, in fact, there is more than just hatred between Ji Xue and Jun Wuzui from the previous generation.

There is also a blood relationship that cannot be severed.

Bei Su gripped the armrest of the wheelchair nervously. He actually hadn't thought about this point. He didn't expect Zong Kui to speak out at this time. This was completely unwise.

"Zongkui, you talk too much." Su Jixue raised her eyes sarcastically: "Didn't your parents teach you that villains die from talking too much?"

Su Jixue knew that if it weren't for Queen Mother Xie, the former Queen and Crown Prince of Dongchu would not have ended up like that.

Moreover, if the King of War was not Jun Wuzui but the former Crown Prince, then this hatred would be truly irreconcilable.

It is the hatred of killing one's mother and exterminating one's clan.

Although Su Jixue did not thank the Queen Mother for her protection, she still bore a share of the original sin.

This is the difference in status.

But in fact, the focus now is not on Su Jixue, but on the War King. Because it is not her who bears the blood feud.

"Zongkui, is this all you can do?" The War King tapped his fingers on the wheelchair, his thin scarlet lips curled up coldly, his bottomless icy eyes were like a deep pool with whirlpools at the bottom, looking at Zongkui calmly.

It seemed that the War King was unmoved.

"Are these skills something that Zhan Wang can slowly observe in the future?" Zong Kui's eyes fell on Zhan Wang's fingers that were tapping lightly on the back of the chair. His slender fingers were like jade and bamboo, and it seemed that the speed and intervals of the tapping were almost consistent, representing the calmness in this person's heart.

In other words, it is forced calmness.

Jun Wuzui him, it is very likely that he is deliberately suppressing it.

A gleam flashed in Zong Kui's eyes. In fact, Jun Wu Zui was very similar to him. They both shouldered irresistible responsibilities, so it was absolutely impossible for them to allow themselves to be too willful.

If Jun Wuzui and Ji Xue had any feelings for each other before, it was when they were children.

So many years have passed, and there is still time and years between Jun Wuzui and Ji Xue, as well as the hatred from the Battle of Gu'an.

Zong Kui didn't believe that there was no loophole in this.

"Now that you have the list, what else do you want?" Zong Kui turned his gaze to Su Jixue. He did not call her Ji Xue or Su Jixue, but asked directly.

Unlike the unfamiliarity in the Golden Palace, at this moment, Zong Kui has already shown that he actually recognized Su Jixue.

"You should know." When Su Jixue saw Zong Kui said this, she immediately looked back with a sarcastic look in her eyes.

Zong Kui should know Su Jixue's temper. She holds grudges, and since it is a life-and-death grudge, Su Jixue will never let Zong Kui go.

"At least for now, I will not die." Zong Kui looked at Su Jixue and said calmly. That would happen later, but for now, Zong Kui would not die at this moment.

"You should know that I won't fight an unprepared battle!"

Zong Kui looked at Su Jixue. They actually knew each other too well. It was as if Zong Kui had known that Su Jixue was Ji Xue. He would have left without any hesitation.

Or, I wouldn’t go to Prince Zhan’s Mansion.

Su Jixue also knew that Zong Kui would definitely think of at least three steps of retreat before doing something.

Zongkui cherishes his life very much.

Therefore, he has always been a cunning man with three burrows, leaving at least a few escape routes when doing things.

This time, he came to Dongchu and brought Shura Dao with him without even knowing that the War King had resurrected. Zong Kui's ability to make decisions and react in such a short time was truly remarkable.

It was just unfortunate that I met Su Jixue.

"The troops from Dongchu's northern border marching south isn't a threat, it's a fact," Beisu said expressionlessly. "Moreover, if something happens to our master, civil unrest will break out in southern Dongchu, and the entire country will be in chaos."

"Even these lists in the capital have been seen by you. They will definitely leave no room for chaos."

"Dong Chu might perish."

Bei Su spoke for Zong Kui, saying what he hadn't said. These were things that couldn't be said in the Golden Palace, but these four people before him, though they were rivals, were also rivals who understood each other best.

So just a few words are enough to understand the situation.

Unlike in front of the court officials of Dongchu, it is necessary to explain it clearly to let them know that it is not a lie.

The corners of Su Jixue's lips curled up coldly, and she looked at Zong Kui with a cold gaze: "So, you think I care about this?"

Whether Dongchu is destroyed or not is none of her business.

Even the fate of Nanqing has nothing to do with her.

There weren't actually many things that Zong Kui could use to threaten her.

but--

Actually, it is not impossible.

"What about Emperor Jing?" Zong Kui looked at Su Jixue with cold eyes: "You should know that if I die, he will definitely not survive."

Emperor Jing was the child protected by Ji Xue.

When Emperor Jing ascended the throne, it was Ji Xue who led him step by step, holding his hand. Back then, Ji Xue even slaughtered the court of Nanqing directly because those stubborn old ministers questioned the young age of Emperor Jing.

At that time, it would be better to say that Ji Xue did it for the child rather than for Zong Kui.

After all, in order to keep Emperor Jing alive, Ji Xue first massacred the harem and even cut off the queen's crown with a single sword.

At that time, many people impeached Ji Xue for this.

And she really was just doing it for that child. How funny, Ji Xue, the most cold-blooded person in the legend, would go to such lengths for the least favored child in the palace.

Su Jixue's breathing paused slightly, and the eyelid of her left eye twitched slightly, just like when she felt something ominous today.

But Su Jixue's face remained expressionless: "Zongkui, it was your decision to support the young emperor."

So, it has nothing to do with her.

"What about those crazy people in Liudao Pavilion?" Zong Kui added.

"If I remember correctly, there were two of them recuperating from their injuries before they came out." Bei Su also followed Zong Kui and said.

Su Jixue's eyebrows twitched slightly. She lowered her eyes to look at her toes, not wanting to ask who was in her hand.

Indeed, if she were Su Jixue, there would actually be nothing that could threaten her.

But if it was Ji Xue, it would be different.

Although Ji Xue was rumored to be cruel and cold-blooded, Zong Kui and the others knew who or what Ji Xue cared about.

"Not only that, there are also those people from Ciyutang. If I can't survive, they may not be able to survive either." Zong Kui spoke again, which made Su Jixue's cold eyes freeze and she glanced at him coldly.

No one knew that the Ciyoutangs spread all over Nanqing were actually run by Ji Xue.

The reason why the children of Ciyutang can grow up safely is because they have the protection of Liudao Pavilion.

This is Ji Xue's Achilles' heel.
