Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 29:Trust her highness

An-Ying Lili stood in front of Hu Jingguo. "You are killing him just because you think he is my lover, right?" Ying Lili asked Sheng Li who had an onerous expression on his face. "Xiao, did you not hear me? Bring me the sword," Sheng Li roared, glaring into the eyes of Ying Lili. Xiao pulled out the sword from the sheath and went to Sheng Li. General Xiao handed the sword to the crown prince.

"Indeed, I think that he is your lover. He broke into the palace to meet his lover," Sheng Li proclaimed. "Yingér, get aside. Let this barbaric man kill me," Hu Jingguo stated with a glare in his eyes.

"I will not kill you instead, your lover will kill you with her hands so that you can keep this in mind that I do not like the men who eye on my woman," asserted Sheng Li and then peered at Ying Lili who was crying. "He is not my lover. He is my childhood friend. Please spare his life. I beg you," Ying Lili pleaded as she lowered her eyes.

"Lili, your tears and your begging will not melt my heart in any way. If you will not kill him then, I will give him a brutal death," stated Sheng Li. The crown prince was raged at the crown princess who was taking the side of another man in front of him.

"Then kill me. Kill me as well. You always wanted to kill me so, you can do it today. Kill me first and then you can kill him," Ying Lili pronounced. This antagonized Sheng Li, and he grabbed Ying Lili's chin. "Do you think I will not kill you? What shall I take this as? How shall I believe you that he is not your lover?" Sheng Li shouted at Ying Lili and pointed the sword at her neck.

"Your highness, please calm down," General Xiao intervened.

Both Sheng Li and Ying Lili were shooting glares at each other when the pointed blade of the sword, pierced the skin of Ying Lili and blood oozed out from there. General Xiao got tensed seeing the situation there and again told the crown prince not to take any step in anger.

The blood covered the blade of the sword when Sheng Li threw it away on the ground. Ying Lili took heavy breaths and her eyes gradually closed. She was going to fall when Sheng Li caught her in his arms. "Lili, Lili," Sheng Li with a worried expression said as he patted her cheek.

Sheng Li carried Ying Lili up in his arms and walked out of the dungeon followed by General Xiao. "Call the Royal Physician," Sheng Li ordered General Xiao who was walking after them. In the military barracks, there was a residing place as well made for the princes and the armies' general.

Sheng Li took Ying Lili there and made her lay on the bed. He kept the pressure on the neck region which he pierced through the sword. The Royal Physician came running there. "Your highness," the royal physician bowed his head in front of the crown head. "Treat the crown princess," Sheng Li said as he looked at Ying Lili.

The Royal Physician quickly took the medicine out and a few bandages out from the cloth bag he had with him. "Your highness," the royal physician said and Sheng Li stood up from the bed. The Royal Physician quickly put the clean cloth over the wound and wiped the blood from it. Luckily the injury was not deep so, the royal physician did not find any difficulty in treating that. Once the royal physician was done, he stood up and turned to the crown prince.

"Her highness is unconscious because of the sudden blood loss and will wake up in a while," the royal physician informed the crown prince who shook his head. "Please, apply this medicine over the wound in the evening. Your highness can call me as well," stated the royal physician proclaimed as he handed a tiny medicine bottle to the crown prince who gave a nod. General Xiao took away the royal physician from there.

Sheng Li, on the other hand, sat beside Ying Lili whose brows were furrowed. He lifted his finger and gently ran his finger between her brows. "Do not kill him," Ying Lili in a meek voice said which was inaudible to Sheng Li so, he leaned closer to her and heard the same words again.

General Xiao came there and bowed his head. "Your highness must have controlled his anger. His majesty will get angry if he found out about this," General Xiao asserted.

"Are you blaming me? She was crying for him. What meaning should have I taken from that?" Sheng Li questioned General Xiao.

"Okay, stop taunting me. You know now what you have to do?" Sheng Li asserted.

"Yes, your highness," General Xiao bowed his head and left the chamber.

Prince Jian Guozhi could be seen in the dungeon standing in front of Hu Jingguo. "Why did you step inside the palace? Do you not know that I have good eyes for the sneaky people like you?" Jian Guozhi asked as he looked at him. "Because of you, the crown princess is injured. Have you any idea how much it hurt me seeing the crown princess in that state?" Jian Guozhi stated.

Hu Guozhi did not have enough strength to speak when Jian Guozhi threw a splash of water on his face. Hu Jingguo panted heavily after getting the splash of water on his face. "She touched you on the face and I will destroy this face of yours," stated Jian Guozhi with an exasperated look when General Xiao came there.

"Your highness must leave," General Xiao proclaimed, looking at Jian Guozhi.

"General Xiao, I caught the culprit and, the crown prince has permitted me to punish the culprit I would like to," stated Jian Guozhi with a stern expression.

"I am afraid but the crown prince just ordered me to pass you this message that his highness will solve it himself. The punishment will be decided by him," asserted General Xiao. Jian Guozhi clenched his teeth. Jian Guozhi wanted to speak but in front of the crown prince's order, he did not dare to. "Try giving him a death sentence. He tried breaking the relationship of the crown prince and the crown princess," Jian Guozhi proclaimed.

"Your highness, that is up to the crown prince to decide," stated General Xiao. Jian Guozhi shook his head in agreement and left from there.
