Chapter 129

"Ouch, stop." Feng Zhiwei complained, dragging her feet. "Fifth Prince, you're pressing too hard, I can't walk."

  "Stop your tricks!" The Fifth Prince snapped, not trusting Feng Zhiwei a whit. He pressed the tip of his dagger into her flesh, "Into the study! Ning Yi, summon the cabinet!"

Feng Zhiwei sighed, looking down at the blood slowly seeping into her green robes.

Ning Yi glanced over, his face expressionless.

"Fifth Brother, stop wasting so much time on this minor minister." He said,

"Compared to His Majesty, he's nothing."

"Sixth Brother, don't waste your words." The Fifth Prince sneered, "I don't care who he is, as long as I have someone to accompany me on my pyre!"

He retreated into the study, his dagger gleaming coldly.
