chapter 4

I rushed out and saw Pei Qingxuan had been stabbed in the shoulder by the Seventh Imperial Brother’s sword.

I shoved the Seventh Imperial Brother aside and pressed a handkerchief to Pei Qingxuan’s wound.

His face was twisted in pain, which made my heart ache terribly.

Pei Shuning’s face was also pale. “Your Highness, did your concubine’s younger brother do something wrong?”

The Seventh Imperial Brother replied coolly, “He did nothing wrong. I just lost control for a moment.”

He was not careless at all; he was testing whether Pei Qingxuan knew martial arts.

This sort of thing had already happened several times.

But this time, Pei Qingxuan was hurt the worst.

My hands were stained with blood.

I said angrily, “Brother, if you keep bullying people like this, I… I won’t come play with you anymore.”

The Seventh Imperial Brother snorted and tossed over a bottle of Golden Wound Medicine. “You really are bewitched by him.

This is nothing – if it were one of our Northern Liang soldiers, they wouldn’t even make a sound.

Next time, I’ll pick a few strong men from Northern Liang to serve you, and then you’ll see that our men are still the best.”

I couldn’t be bothered to respond.

He has Pei Shuning as his sole concubine, and I’ve never seen him seek out women from Northern Liang either.
