Chapter 340: Let's See Who Wins (Part 3)

Xia Jingxin shuddered, the panic in her eyes apparent. She smiled awkwardly for a while before coming to her senses. “Your Majesty, why do you ask me that?”

Baili Qingcang walked forward step by step and reached out to stroke her cheek. “Your face is familiar to me, but I find that the heart inside is very strange…”

“Your Majesty…” Xia Jingxin clutched her chest, her tears flowing down her cheeks like rivers. “My chest hurts so much. Your Majesty, you gave up on me once. Do you want to give up on me a second time?”

Baili Qingcang’s eyes flashed. The suspicion in his eyes appeared and disappeared in a moment, making him look particularly contradictory.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the door, followed by the sound of weapons clashing. Baili Junyi frowned and exchanged glances with Shen Ninghua.

“Fifth Royal Brother, Fifth Royal Sister-in-law, you rebels! How dare you barge into the Palace to cause trouble!” Baili Jinze, who was dressed in prince’s clothes, walked in. His eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement and thrill.

Baili Junyi glanced at the soldiers behind him. “Sixth Brother, you bring so many men in here. I don’t think you’re here to simply meet Father Emperor, right?”

“I am here to protect Father Emperor and kill the traitors.”

“Traitors?” Baili Junyi sneered. “Are you referring to us?”

“It’s good that you know without me stating the obvious!”

Baili Qingcang’s face blushed in rage. “Jinze, who asked you to barge in here? Take your men and leave here instant!”

Baili Jinze took two steps forward, and a smug smile appeared on his lips. “Father Emperor, how can you ask me to leave when the rebels are still here? Prefectural Prince Yi and Princess Zhaohua have tried to assassinate Your Majesty and Noble Concubine with the intention of usurping the throne. Guards, kill them on the spot!”

Baili Qingcang shouted, “Nonsense! Bastard, order your men to retreat!”

Baili Jinze suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and slashed at Baili Qingcang’s arm.

“Father Emperor!” Baili Junyi jumped up immediately, but he could not move fast while holding Baby Girl in his arms. He had to use his body to block Baili Jinze’s sword. His arm was severely slashed and blood flowed out profusely.

Baili Qingcang’s pupils shrank in horror. “Junyi…”

Baili Junyi turned around and kicked Baili Jinze in the chest, sending him flying out.

Baili Jinze clutched his chest and was supported by the soldiers behind him. His eyes were red. “Go! Kill Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua on the spot!”

“Yes!”

The soldiers on both sides quickly fought. The Shadow Guards stood in front of Baili Qingcang, not allowing anyone to get close. Shen Ninghua quickly took Baby Girl from Baili Junyi’s arms. She tore her skirt and applied some ointment to tie up the wound on his arm.

After wrapping up the wound, Shen Ninghua looked at Baili Qingcang. “Father Emperor, are you alright?”

“I-I’m fine.” Baili Qingcang looked at Baili Junyi. Only then did he realize that Baili Junyi’s face was extremely pale and his forehead was covered in a cold sweat. Baili Qingcang could not help but recall the scene when the Empress rebelled, and the two of them had protected him with all their might. “Junyi, you have been unconscious for a long time. Have you recovered from your injury?”

“I’m fine now.”

Shen Ninghua held Baili Junyi’s hand and gently lifted his sleeve. The exposed arm was wrapped in thick gauze, and blood dyed the gauze red. Baili Junyi pulled back his arm, held Shen Ninghua and Baby Girl in his embrace, and whispered in Shen Ninghua’s ear, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

When Baili Qingcang saw this scene, he felt extremely sour in his heart. “The two children… They…”

Baili Jinze gritted his teeth in resentment when he saw that his men were on par with Baili Junyi’s men and even had a slight disadvantage. Had he not been suppressed over and over again, he would not have been so passive now that he had such a good opportunity.

“Baili Junyi, I have already sent my men to your residence. Your son is still there, right? It might still be possible for you to send your men back to save him now. If you delay a little longer, I’m afraid that you’ll have to prepare for his funeral next.”

Shen Ninghua suddenly raised her head, the hatred in her eyes overwhelming. “Baili Jinze, if you hurt my son, I will make you pay with a miserable death!”

“Make me pay? Oh, I’m so scared. Humph, Shen Ninghua, you should think about how to survive this ordeal first!”

Shen Ninghua’s emotions fluctuated violently. The hatred in her eyes flashed violently. This man had harmed her for her entire life. She originally thought that she had destroyed his foundation, and she should just leave him fending for himself. Unexpectedly, he still had the strength to counterattack.

Seeing the hatred in Shen Ninghua’s eyes, Baili Jinze felt a burst of grief and indignation in his heart. It should not be like this. Shen Ninghua should not look at him like this. “Shen Ninghua, do you hate me?”

“Yes! I wish I can chop you up right now!”

“Haha, it’s a pity that you miss your chance,” Baili Jinze laughed wildly, his face full of gloom.

Recently, he had been dreaming. The scenes were always different and complicated. When he woke up, he could not remember anything, but he had a faint feeling that he should not be like this. He should have a smooth-sailing journey. He should have earned the Emperor’s favor, the people’s respect, and the officials’ support. All of these should be his!

But now, he had nothing. Panlong Villa, where he used to secretly forge weapons and swords, had been destroyed. He had secretly accumulated his wealth through bribery to rise from the ashes, but he was caught. His courtyard and mansion had been ruined. His wife was nothing but a slut who had no powerful background and could not give birth to a child. He had nothing left, as if someone had completely destroyed his destiny. He had a feeling that the person who had destroyed him was Shen Ninghua. It had to be her!

The clash of weapons was especially intense. Baili Jinze’s men had already been driven to the gate and were about to be forced out of Chunxi Palace.

No one noticed that Xia Jingxin, who was lying on the bed, slowly sat up straight. She took out a dagger from under the pillow and stabbed it at the back of Shen Ninghua’s heart!

Baili Junyi felt something strange behind him and subconsciously hugged Shen Ninghua to avoid it. Unfortunately, Xia Jingxin had made up her mind to take Shen Ninghua’s life. When the first attack failed, Xia Jingxin charged at her again. Shen Ninghua could only move slightly to avoid her vital points as she was hugging and protecting Baby Girl in her arms. Then, she saw how the dagger stabbed right into her left shoulder.

“Ninghua!”

When Baili Qingcang heard the scream, he turned around and saw the horrid scene in front of him. He could no longer deceive himself that Xia Jingxin was the reincarnation of Xia Jingyan. He stepped forward and kicked Xia Jingxin away. “Bitch!”

After being kicked, Xia Jingxin fell to the ground. There were many soldiers who were killed by the Shadow Guards lying on the ground. When she fell, she had no time to change her position and slammed her face heavily onto the armor.

After a lot of effort, Xia Jingxin got up again, and there were gasps in her ears.

Xia Jingxin froze and quickly reached out to cover her face.

Baili Qingcang stared at Xia Jingxin in utter disbelief and shock. Just now, when Xia Jingxin got up, her face was full of wrinkles, and her nose was skewed. “W-Who are you?”

Xia Jingxin raised her head. She stared intensely at Baili Qingcang with her eyes, the only thing that was normal on her face. “Your Majesty, can’t you recognize me? I’m Xia Jingyan.”

“Shut up!” Baili Qingcang strode forward and lifted Xia Jingxin up. He held back his disgust and touched her face. Then, he tore her mask off, revealing an ugly face full of scars.

Seeing that face, Shen Ninghua cried out in alarm, “Baili Anqing?!”

Baili Qingcang’s vision went black, and his blood boiled in his chest. “You… Anqing…”

The entire Chunxi Palace quieted down. Baili Jinze looked at the scene in front of him with excitement, feeling an unprecedented joy in his heart. “Hahaha, you didn’t expect it, did you? Father Emperor, the Noble Concubine you conferred, the reincarnation of the Xia Jingyan you missed so damn much, is your own daughter. Hahaha, you must be feeling damn good, right? ”

When Baili Qingcang heard this, he could no longer hold back the grief in his heart and spat out a mouthful of blood. “Bastard!” Back then, Baili Anqing had made a big mistake. He had sent her to the temple to repent her sin by becoming a nun and praying for good fortune. Who would have thought that she would actually change her appearance and enter the imperial palace again, even becoming his Noble Concubine!

Shen Ninghua took two steps back to stabilize herself and used the golden needle to seal her acupuncture points to stop the bleeding from the wound on her shoulder. “Junyi, I’m fine. Go take a look at Father Emperor.”

“Okay.” Baili Junyi motioned the stealthy guard to step forward to protect Shen Ninghua, while he went forward to support Baili Qingcang. “Father Emperor, you don’t know anything. It was Baili Jinze and Baili Anqing who plotted this.”

Baili Qingcang suddenly raised his head and fiercely glared at Baili Anqing with his sharp eyes. He wished he could split her apart and look at her heart! “Baili Anqing… you bastard. How can you harm your own family and commit incest?! I-I’ll kill you!”

“Father Emperor, I am your daughter. Everything I know, I learned it from you. Didn’t you kill Baili Anning’s baby for me? You set up a good example. I learn from you, and I behave like you.”

“Shut up!” Baili Qingcang suddenly grabbed the sword in Baili Junyi’s hand and pointed it at Baili Anning’s throat. “You bastard, I will kill you today!”

“Alright, go ahead and kill me. You’ve even killed your own grandson anyway, so killing your biological daughter is nothing!” Baili Anqing roared on the verge of desperation.

“Why did you harm Anning’s child? He’s your nephew!”

“Why can’t I? I hate Baili Anning so much that I want her to die. I am a princess and your daughter. You’ve arranged everything so well for Baili Anning! Her husband loves her so much, and she doesn’t have a horrible mother-in-law. She is so happy that I’m jealous! Then, there’s Shen Ninghua! She doesn’t even relate to you in any way, but she’s so happy that it drives me crazy! I want to kill both of them! I want to destroy their happiness!”

“You are crazy!” Baili Qingcang’s hand that was holding the sword was shaking.

Baili Anning suddenly raised her head and touched her scarred face. “M-My life has already been ruined, so I can’t bear to see others being happy. Haha, Father Emperor, kill me! Just do it!”

Baili Qingcang took two steps back dejectedly. In an instant, he seemed to have aged by ten years. “Junyi, I will leave this person to you to deal with.”

Baili Anning widened her eyes in horror. “No, no!” She did not want to die in Shen Ninghua’s hands. She absolutely did not want to die in Shen Ninghua’s hands. As she spoke, she picked up a dagger from the ground and was about to commit suicide, but Baili Junyi kicked away the dagger in her hand.

“Baili Anning, you can’t die just because you want to!” She hurt Ninghua and wanted to kill their children. Dying was too lenient for her.

Baili Jinze’s face was full of panic. “Attack, quickly! Kill all the people here!”
