Princess, something terrible has happened! The prince consort has attempted suicide again!

"You all heard it, she told me to hit her and that's why I hit her. I've never seen a request like that in my life."

Zhang Xiaomeng shrugged, indicating that he was also helpless.

"you……"

With the help of servants, Liu Ru got to her feet, her expression ferocious, and gritted her teeth, saying, "You dare hit me!"

"Want to try again?"

Zhang Xiaomeng raised his hand, pretending to hit him.

Terrified, Liu Ru trembled and uttered, "You...you just wait."

Having said that, he hurriedly fled.

Zhang Xiaomeng spat out a contemptuous "bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong."

Feng Yi frowned and said, "You shouldn't have acted impulsively."

Zhang Xiaomeng said nonchalantly, "What kind of young person isn't impulsive? Would they even be considered a young person?"

"But do you know the consequences of doing this?"

"as a result of?"

Zhang Xiaomeng put his hands behind his back, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "At worst, I'll die. What's there to fear?"

Feng Yi was taken aback upon hearing this.

He is so young yet he can take life and death lightly; his mindset is beyond what ordinary people can achieve. No wonder the princess has taken a liking to him.

Feng Yi said no more and commanded the air, "Report this matter to the princess immediately."

"yes!"

A response came from the air.

I go!

Is someone else hiding in the shadows?

Just how many people did Zhao Changning arrange to protect himself?

Does she really love me that much?

Zhang Xiaomeng tentatively asked, "Can you handle the princess?"

Feng Yi shook her head slightly, "There has never been a case in history where someone who committed heinous crimes was pardoned. I'm afraid it will be very difficult."

"It's good that it's difficult."

Zhang Xiaomeng blurted out excitedly.

He immediately realized his mistake and quickly explained, "I mean, with the princess's abilities, even the most difficult situation is not a problem."

He changed the subject and instructed Zhang Mama, "Hey you, I'm leaving this place to you. I'm going out for a walk."

Having the rare opportunity to travel back to ancient times, Zhang Xiaomeng decided to take a good look around before being executed.

"Yes, young master."

Granny Zhang responded respectfully, wondering if the young master was about to run away.

Feng Yi lowered her voice and said, "If you want to hide, I can take you to a secluded place."

"Hide? Why should I hide?" Zhang Xiaomeng asked.

"Then why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Of course, we're going shopping."

Feng Yi was speechless.

After making such a huge mess, how can you still have the mind to go shopping?

Zhang Xiaomeng hummed a little tune as he wandered around the streets, finding everything new and exciting.

To be fair, Dongling Kingdom was quite prosperous. Although it couldn't compare to modern cities, it had its own unique charm.

This time, Feng Yi didn't disappear; she followed closely behind Zhang Xiaomeng, not knowing what to say when she saw Zhang Xiaomeng's enthusiastic expression.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaomeng noticed a crowd gathered ahead and immediately became interested. "Let's go take a look."

Curious, he approached and saw two corpses lying on the ground.

A man and a little girl.

A woman was kneeling beside the body, wailing and heartbroken.

Three people stood before her, two of whom were capable bodyguards, while a young master dressed in fine clothes and with an arrogant expression stood guard beside her.

The woman looked up and glared at the young man, angrily demanding, "Why? Why did you do this?"

The young master tilted his head back, fanning himself with a paper fan, a faint smile playing on his lips, and said condescendingly, "You say you're already married and can't be my woman. Then I'll kill them all, so you'll have no worries and can follow me in peace."

"You're insane! You're a madman!" the woman roared hysterically, her eyes red.

Although the onlookers sympathized with her plight, they dared not speak out against her.

Zhang Xiaomeng even saw several soldiers not far away, but pretended not to see them even though he knew a murder had occurred there.

He recognized the man as Zhao Tianhao, the son of the Prince of Zhenbei. He was arrogant, domineering, and lawless.

Moreover, he had a grudge against Zhang Xiaomeng.

At Zhang Ling's instigation, Zhao Tianhao publicly humiliated Zhang Xiaomeng.

Not only did they make him kneel down and bark like a dog, but they also made him crawl between their legs and beat him until his face was bruised and swollen. He lost all face and suffered all kinds of humiliation.

As a result, this guy preemptively accused Zhang Xiaomeng of offending him.

Unfortunately, Marquis Yongwu believed him and personally used family discipline on Zhang Xiaomeng, beating him half to death so that he couldn't get out of bed for more than a month.

From then on, Zhang Xiaomeng's last remaining illusions about the Marquis of Yongwu were completely shattered. He began to wallow in self-pity, letting himself go and causing trouble everywhere, becoming unruly and incorrigible.

Finally, he even risked his life to sneak into the palace to spy on Princess Changning.

This person has lost all will to live and is deliberately seeking death.

After searching his memories, Zhang Xiaomeng clenched his fists, a fierce glint in his eyes.

I was worried that one heinous crime wasn't enough, so I decided to use him as an extra layer of insurance.

After thinking it over, Zhang Xiaomeng was about to step forward.

"What are you going to do?"

Feng Yi immediately stopped him and reminded him, "He is the son of the Prince of Zhenbei. Even the princess doesn't dare to easily provoke the Prince of Zhenbei. Don't be foolish."

"Just because he's a prince or nobleman, does that mean he can disregard human life?" Zhang Xiaomeng said righteously, "In my land, the emperor is subject to the same laws as the common people. If I hadn't encountered this before, I would have let it go, but since I've run into him today, even if it's the Emperor himself, I, the young master, will have to intervene."

Feng Yi was stunned.

Is he still the same spoiled young master who is so fearless of power and so righteous?

"Get out of the way!"

Zhang Xiaomeng shoved Feng Yi aside, stepped forward from the crowd, and shouted, "Stop!"

Everyone looked at Zhang Xiaomeng, and seeing that someone had finally stepped forward, they couldn't help but show their respect and anticipation.

"presumptuous!"

Two guards blocked Zhang Xiaomeng's path, their right hands gripping the hilts of their swords, ready to strike at any moment.

Zhang Xiaomeng, who had been so righteous just moments before, instantly revealed a fawning smile and waved to Zhao Tianhao, saying, "Young Prince, it's me, Xiaomeng."

Zhao Tianhao waved away the guards and sneered, "So it's you, kid. What? You want to meddle in other people's business?"

"Your Highness is joking. What is your status? Even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare to interfere in your affairs."

Zhang Xiaomeng smiled obsequiously, bowing and scraping, keeping his posture very low.

Upon seeing this, everyone felt contempt.

I thought someone important had arrived, but it turns out to be just a lackey.

Feng Yi, standing to the side, was also puzzled.

What exactly does he want to do?

Zhao Tianhao showed a satisfied expression. It seemed that the lesson he learned last time had completely subdued the kid.

He asked arrogantly, "Then why did you jump out?"

Zhang Xiaomeng replied, "I feel sorry for you, Your Highness."

"Oh? Tell me, why do you feel sorry for me?" Zhao Tianhao immediately became interested.

Zhang Xiaomeng tried to go over and speak, but was stopped by the guards.

"Young Prince, this..."

Zhang Xiaomeng looked troubled.

Zhao Tianhao waved his hand. "Step back."

The guards respectfully pushed it aside.

Zhang Xiaomeng then approached Zhang Tianhao respectfully and said, "Young Prince, what is your status? For you to take a liking to this lowly woman is a blessing she has accumulated over many lifetimes."

Zhao Tianhao's lips involuntarily curled up slightly; he thoroughly enjoyed this flattery.

Zhang Xiaomeng glanced furtively at the two guards and continued, "But she's ungrateful and doesn't appreciate it at all. I suggest..."

He paused abruptly, and Zhao Tianhao instinctively asked, "What suggestions do you have?"

"I suggest..."

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaomeng pulled out a dagger and, with lightning speed, plunged it into Zhao Tianhao's heart, snarling, "Die!"
