Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

Yang Yuru tried to push Chi Junlin away with her hands, but she was far weaker than him.

Her hand was held by Chi Junlin, and there was a hint of coy reluctance in her gesture.

Her mind went blank, yet she found Chi Junlin's kissing technique to be both domineering and affectionate.

She knew full well that this loss of virginity was a foregone conclusion, and that she, a frail woman, was powerless to resist.

I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I can no longer serve you faithfully...

A tear rolled down her cheek.

The teacup fell to the ground, and the hairpin swayed slightly.

The patch of aura above Jiang Hao's head seemed to appear even greener.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Meanwhile, outside the palace, at the Princess's residence.

Just as the Red Emperor was sitting on his dragon bed in the Jiaofang Palace, savoring the Empress's pleasures...

Jiang Qianju, however, appeared anxious and uneasy on the phoenix couch.

She knew that Chi Junlin was going to attack the Emperor today.

Based on her understanding of Chi Junlin, she would definitely go to see Yang Yurou after meeting Jiang Hao.

Since she's going to see Yang Yuru, she's bound to suffer at Chi Junlin's hands.

Just like I was back then.

But for some reason, the thought of what should have made her happy made her feel somewhat depressed.

"Bitch...bitch...all bitches..."

Jiang Qianju tore the red silk on the bed with her hands, ripping the silk threads into strands.

Then she looked down and saw the dry pillowcases that had been re-laid out on the bed.

Suddenly, she remembered how the two of them had been all sweaty and disheveled, leaving their pillowcases completely soaked.

The scene was so vivid that it kept replaying in her mind.

This made Jiang Qianju, a princess, feel extremely ashamed and angry.

"Red Emperor, you bastard!"

Jiang Qianju cursed loudly, then suddenly saw the Bloodstained Jade that Chi Junlin had given her before.

She picked up the jade and wanted to smash it on the ground.

But after raising her hand high, she felt reluctant to let go.

After hesitating for a moment, he lowered his hand and held the jade protectively in his arms.

"Red King's Arrival... Red King's Arrival..."

Jiang Qianju was both crying and laughing, her beautiful face showing signs of gritted teeth, it was unclear what she was thinking at that moment.

But just then, there was a knocking sound at the window.

"Dong dong dong."

Jiang Qianju was startled and instinctively jumped up from the bed.

Then he shouted towards the window.

"Who! Who's there!"

Chapter 12 I Want to See the Crimson Emperor

Upon hearing Jiang Qianju's soft gasp, a familiar, lewd voice immediately came from outside the window.

"Your Highness, it's me, Ding Xia."

Jiang Qianju was taken aback, her expression becoming somewhat complicated.

It seems that there is both disgust for Ding Xia at this moment and hesitation to sever ties with past feelings.

She quickly wiped away her tears, then asked in a slightly disdainful tone, "Ding Xia... what are you doing here?"

Jiang Qianju no longer calls him Brother Ding Xia.

However, Ding Xia did not notice the subtle change in Jiang Qianju's tone.

Instead, he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please open the window and let me in. It's easy for someone to spot us outside. If Chi Junlin finds out I've been here, things will be very bad."

Jiang Qianju hesitated for a moment, but still walked to the window and opened the latch.

She was curious about what Ding Xia wanted to say to her when he came over at this time.

Seeing that Jiang Qianju had opened a window for him, Ding Xia quickly slipped through the window.

He was dressed in all black and entered the room timidly, like a thief.

Then he reached out and tried to hug Jiang Qianju.

Looking at him now, Jiang Qianju felt that he was greasy, slick, and disgusting.

She immediately avoided Ding Xia's embrace.

Ding Xia looked slightly embarrassed, his expression shifting between light and dark.

However, his long-standing confidence led him not to believe that Jiang Qianju disliked him.

Instead, it was interpreted as the shyness of a young girl in the throes of first love.

The little princess must be shy after not seeing each other for so long.

Well, given how infatuated she is with me, even if she's shy today, she'll naturally fall into my arms when the time comes.

Jiang Qianju glanced at Ding Xia with a hint of disdain, then, with her usual spoiled expression, looked up at him and asked, "What are you doing here? Do you have something to say to me?"

Ding Xia, unsuspecting, nodded and said with a hint of excitement, "Princess, I have good news to tell you. Recently, many heroes from the martial arts world have entered the capital. I have contacted several of them, and they will soon join forces to fight against the imperial court."

Hmph, just wait and see. So what if Chi Junlin is skilled in martial arts? He's still all alone.

We have several unparalleled masters on our side; even with a thousand troops, we can take the enemy general's head amidst the chaos!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianju was immediately taken aback. "Ding Xia, you actually want to take Chi Junlin's head?"

Ding Xia was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head with a smile and said, "I was just saying that. Isn't that what storytellers always say?"

Don't worry, Chi Junlin has been with me for so long, how could I possibly want to kill her?

But I must teach her a lesson to vent my anger.

Jiang Qianju looked at Ding Xia with an uncertain expression, and then asked, "If you were to capture Chi Junlin, what would you do to her?"

Ding Xia thought for a moment, then said with a confident expression, "I definitely won't harm her."

However, since she made me lose so much face, she must kowtow to me and apologize!

Let me think... This woman's martial arts skills are just too high; we need to cripple her martial arts.

Otherwise, it's really worrying.

Seeing Ding Xia's cold and ruthless demeanor as he spoke, Jiang Qianju suddenly felt a sense of fear towards him.

I hadn’t realized it before, but Dante Shrimp is truly heartless and cruel!

Even if Jiang Qianju didn't like Chi Junlin that much, Ding Xia still spent a lot of time with him.

Doesn't he have even a little bit of feeling for Chi Junlin?

Just because he himself lost face, Ding Xia actually wanted the other party to kowtow and admit his mistake?

Do you also want to cripple the opponent's martial arts?

How can there be such a cold-blooded and terrifying man in this world, without even realizing it?

Ding Xia then took Jiang Qianju's hand and said affectionately, "Qianju, don't worry."

I know you have always despised Red King's Landing.

After I've taught her a lesson, I'll definitely abandon her.

Then I'll take you to wander the world, to fly far away. And we'll live like a pair of celestial beings...

Looking into his affectionate eyes, Jiang Qianju felt a chill creep up her spine.

She couldn't help but wonder, if she followed this man, would she be treated the same way as Chi Junlin if she ever displeased him?

No, her fate will be a thousand times, ten thousand times worse than that of Chi Junlin.

After all, unlike Chi Junlin, she doesn't have superb martial arts skills or thousands of loyal soldiers.

How could I have ever fallen for such a heartless and ungrateful man?

Just as Jiang Qianju couldn't help but show a look of disgust.

Ding Xia suddenly looked away and noticed the blood-stained jade that Jiang Qianju had placed on the table.

Then she exclaimed happily, "Huh? Isn't this jade pendant mine? I accidentally left it behind before, but I didn't expect it to appear here with you. What a coincidence!"

This item is valuable; it must be worth several hundred taels of silver.

He reached out to take it.

But Jiang Qianju took the jade back without hesitation and hid it behind her back, saying, "You've got it wrong. This is a precious jade given to me by a close friend. It's something I cherish. It's definitely not yours."

Ding Xia paused for a moment, then casually laughed and said, "Then I must have made a mistake. I thought I accidentally left it here when I came last time."

Jiang Qianju looked at this man who was full of lies and had nothing more to say to him.

Ding Xia looked slightly embarrassed, but quickly remembered something and asked Jiang Qianju, "By the way, Sister Qianju, I heard that Chi Junlin has been staying at the Princess's residence frequently lately, and you often run into him."

Do you know which places she frequents lately? And where is she now?

Jiang Qianju felt a little disgusted by his affectionate way of addressing her.

Although she still doesn't really like Chi Junlin, for some reason, she just doesn't want to tell Ding Xia where Chi Junlin is.

After a moment's hesitation, she replied with a hint of arrogance, "That bitch Chi Junlin... why would she tell me where she's going? Do we look like we're on good terms?"

Ding Xia nodded and smiled, "That's true, I think you probably don't know either."

"It's a pity, though. I've already conspired with those heroes of the martial world to seize Chi Junlin when the opportunity arises. We also plan to use her position as commander-in-chief to control the northern troops within the city."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianju frowned but did not say anything more.

Seeing Jiang Qianju frown, Ding Xia felt even more charming and couldn't resist wanting to get closer to her.

Jiang Qianju quickly took a few steps back, looking displeased.

"I'm a little tired. Brother Dingxia... you should leave quickly. The palace maids will be here soon," she said seriously.

Ding Xia was unhappy, but dared not say anything.

He muttered viciously to himself, "This little brat, playing hard to get with me. Wait until I've mastered my skills, she'll be sorry!"

Then, he bid farewell to Jiang Qianju and climbed out of the window again, leaving the princess's boudoir.

After Ding Xia left, Jiang Qianju sat on the edge of the bed and hesitated for a long time, her expression becoming uncertain, as if she was struggling with something important.

After a long time, she seemed to have made up her mind.

Then she stood up, pushed open the door, and went out.

Several guards near the boudoir immediately bowed to Jiang Qian.

The captain immediately greeted her respectfully, "Your Highness, is there something important you need to discuss?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianju revealed her usual spoiled expression.

"Let's go! I'm going to find Chi Junlin!"

Chapter 13 It seems I've arrived at the wrong time?

The Red Emperor entered the palace at noon.

After meeting Jiang Hao, he went to the Jiaofang Palace to discuss politics and develop a close relationship with the virtuous Empress Yang Yurou.

The two hit it off immediately and got along very well, losing track of time in the process.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that they called people to have their meal.

Judging from the looks of it, the Crimson Lord has no intention of leaving tonight.
