However, he knew he couldn’t find out. The Marshal wouldn’t tell him, and he was also not so ignorant as to ask about something he knew he shouldn’t.
It was nighttime, and the sky was blanketed in darkness.
Snowflakes fell from the sky, causing the resting soldiers to shiver.
The tent where Yue Suiyu was imprisoned had very few soldiers, and the security seemed quite lax. It was obvious that they did not take the Princess of Yueming Empire seriously.
In the tent, Yue Suiyu opened her eyes and waited for the long night to pa.s.s.
Perhaps she would not be able to see the light of the next day. Even if she was rescued, being tied to the city wall had already harmed Ming Fucheng’s reputation.
Knowing Ming Fucheng, even if he rescued her, he would not let her return to continue embarra.s.sing him.
She was completely worthless now.
Wait, no. Perhaps Ming Fucheng wanted to exploit her death in Zhanling Military Camp to cause trouble. However, Zhan Beiye had thoroughly considered everything. Ming Fucheng wouldn’t be able to cause trouble even if he wanted to.
She waited for a long time.
Suddenly, she heard light footsteps outside the tent. Her ears were unusually sharp. Struggling, she tried to get up from the ground but was unable to do so.
After a few more attempts to get up and ultimately falling back to the ground, the tent curtain was lifted.
“Is this the princess? Did we come to the wrong place?”
Two sacrificial warriors entered. Even these usually silent soldiers couldn’t bear the sight of Yue Suiyu, who was filthy and disheveled.
One of them could not help but wonder if Zhan Beiye had found out they were coming and replaced the princess with someone else.
“There is no mistake. Even if there is, we’d rather kill the wrong person than let her off,” the other sacrificial warrior said coldly as he walked towards Yue
Suiyu.
The dagger in his hand shone coldly as he pointed it at Yue Suiyu.
Yue Suiyu could not speak and could only shake her head vigorously. It was only when her death was imminent that she realized she did not want to die. She had not lived long enough.
Tears streamed down her face. She wanted to beg the two sacrificial warriors for mercy, but unfortunately, she could not speak.
The sacrificial warrior could not bother wasting his breath on someone about to die. Without giving her a chance to speak, he approached her and slashed her neck with the dagger in his hand.
Blood gushed out immediately.
Yue Suiyu widened her eyes, blood streaming from her mouth, her entire body convulsing.
“Soldiers! Take them down!”
Suddenly, a deep voice came from outside, shocking the two sacrificial warriors, who had planned to leave after ensuring Yue Suiyu was dead.
They exchanged glances and immediately slashed the tent open, ready to escape in another direction.
However, just as one of them escaped through the opening, a foot came flying at him, sending him back inside.
“Ugh!”
The sacrificial warrior cried out in pain. He clutched his chest and looked at the person striding in from the opening he had cut.
The other sacrificial warrior raised his dagger in an attacking stance. They finally realized that the camp’s lax security was intentional..
