Wei Qingge desperately wanted to escape.
But the burly men held her shoulders firmly, grabbed her hair, and forced her to be unable to move or struggle.
Her eyes turned red as she bit down on the tiger's mouth of the man who held her wrist.
The latter, in great pain, reflexively slapped Wei Qingge across the face.
"You bitch, at death's door and still so stubborn."
"Come on, strip her clothes. Let us enjoy ourselves."
Wei Qingge was bound, with no room to maneuver, but she thrashed like a madwoman, rolling with the chair she was tied to, dodging the reaching claws.
She would rather die than be humiliated.
Li Yan sat on a chair, took a sip of tea, and watched the commotion. She sensed Wei Qingge's intention and immediately spoke.
"Dislocate her jaw. Don't let her bite her tongue to commit suicide."
Before her death, she wanted Wei Qingge to pay a heavy price.
"Yes, Princess."
Wei Qingge dodged desperately, her eyes fixed on the reaching claws as she was about to bite down fiercely.
But at that moment, the door to the dark room was suddenly opened.
"Stop."
Everyone was startled and turned to see Li Cheng, clad in a yellow python robe, striding in.
Li Yan's expression stiffened, her eyes narrowing slightly as she stood up.
"Why has Your Highness come?"
Seeing her stand up with distaste, Li Cheng strode closer and smiled, patting her behind.
"Can I not come?"
Li Yan's body instantly stiffened at his action, a fleeting murderous intent flashing in her eyes.
This pighead, always teasing her, it was disgusting.
"Isn't this Madam Li Qiongyu's future wife? Why bother with these guards? This prince rather fancies a taste of the 'little pepper' of the capital."
Upon hearing this, Li Yan rejoiced, a wicked idea instantly flashing in her mind.
She smiled, "Does the Third Prince like this woman?"
"Do you want to join? It'll be much more fun."
Saying this, he reached out to touch Li Yan's, but she dared not dodge. He caught her and gave her a few hard squeezes.
Wei Qingge watched as the burly men retreated. She struggled to support herself, her face contorting from the intense pain.
She raised her eyes and saw the two flirting. She immediately focused her gaze on a small knife that had fallen to the ground.
Damn it, if I don't get revenge for this, my surname isn't Wei!
Wei Qingge had grown up rough and tumble, getting into fights and getting injured often as a child. Later, when she joined the army, she became even more wild.
For now, she could endure these injuries.
She subtly shifted her body, used her mouth to hook the knife handle, and threw it backward.
Her bound hands caught it naturally.
She gripped the knife and cut through the ropes binding her.
"If the Third Princess Consort learns of Your Highness's dealings, she'll likely make a scene."
Li Yan smiled subtly and took a step back, concealing the nausea she felt.
"Do you dare to report me?!"
Li Cheng scoffed, no longer touching her.
What he wanted most now was Wei Qingge. He was eager to see how devastated Li Qiongyu would be upon learning that his fiancée had been violated.
Associating with the rebel Dingbei King and opposing him was deserving of death.
"Your covert guards have impressive skills to be able to bring people in without anyone noticing."
He said, walking towards Wei Qingge with a lecherous grin.
Li Yan smiled, "This woman is yours, Your Highness."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Qingge, who was tied to the chair, suddenly stood up. The knife in her hand flew out swiftly, piercing directly into Li Cheng, who hadn't had time to dodge.
The latter was greatly alarmed, and sharp pain surged through his shoulder.
His expression turned fierce, and he immediately lunged forward, seizing Wei Qingge's scapula and wrenching it with force.
Royal scions, no matter how incompetent, were all skilled in both literary and martial arts. Li Cheng, of course, knew martial arts.
Wei Qingge naturally knew this and did not underestimate him.
Therefore, the moment he attacked, she immediately rolled and dodged.
But his speed was fast, and the pain in her scapula instantly tore at her other wounds, causing cold sweat to bead on her face.
"As expected, someone who frequently accompanies General Wei to the border has some skill."
Wei Qingge vigilantly watched Li Cheng.
Her face was pale, her clothes were stained with blood from the whipping, and the pain made it difficult for her to stand, as if she would collapse at any moment.
"Guards, seize this bitch."
As soon as Li Yan spoke, the door to the dark room was flung open, and over a dozen guards rushed in.
Seeing them surround her, Li Cheng let out a lecherous laugh.
"This Prince likes spirited women like this. She's truly bold and interesting. Don't any of you come closer."
It would be more satisfying to conquer her himself. He wanted to see if this 'little pepper' of the capital was just as fiery in bed.
Wei Qingge knew that her martial arts skills were likely no match for them, unless she could capture Li Cheng and coerce them.
But Li Cheng had been practicing martial arts since childhood. What should she do?
Her eyes darted around as she contemplated a plan. Suddenly, Li Cheng opposite her burst into laughter.
"In this state, you bear some resemblance to Miss Ye."
Back then, Ye Xue wanted to use his influence to eliminate her elder sister. After learning of Ye Xue's death, he had even sent people to investigate Ye Luan in secret.
That little fox was quite interesting.
It was a pity that the person later left the capital for some reason. When she returned, she had become his cousin's consort.
Wei Qingge, unable to overlook his lewd thoughts, could not help but mock him, regardless of her own situation.
"A Luan is the officially appointed consort of the Dingbei King. Your Highness should not covet those you shouldn't provoke."
It was utterly disgusting.
Li Cheng did not hide his intentions and let out a loud laugh.
"It's alright, tasting you will suffice."
The Dingbei King was a traitorous minister. One day, he would reclaim the empire that belonged to their Li family.
That Ye Luan would also taste his desires sooner or later.
Wei Qingge felt a wave of nausea and wanted to vomit.
She glanced outside, thinking to stall for time, and said, "Does Your Highness intend to oppose our Wei family?"
"Hahaha, do you think you can leave here alive today?"
Li Cheng walked towards her with a arrogant laugh.
Although Li Qiongyu did not meddle in state affairs, he was on very good terms with his cousin.
If he harmed Wei Qingge, he could not let her leave alive to accuse him and cause trouble.
He assumed Li Yan would also not let her leave alive.
"Wei Qingge, you can only blame yourself for choosing such a good husband."
He was already eager to witness a good show.
The fiancée of the Duke of Xuanping's youngest son being shamed to death by guards, what a huge joke that would be.
Li Qiongyu's reputation would be utterly ruined.
Hahaha.
Wei Qingge spat, suppressing the intense pain in her body, and directly charged forward.
At worst, she would die, but she would never be humiliated by such a scumbag.
"Your Highness, make it quick."
Li Yan looked displeased at the ongoing fight. She didn't want any unexpected complications and wanted to ruin this woman as quickly as possible, ensuring she could never rise again even if she lived.
Li Cheng ignored her, dodging the fierce attack with interest, and grabbed back.
"Wei Qingge, you're still too tender."
