Chapter 142 -142: You are the Culprit Behind Her Death
Jie Chen looked at him with a cold gaze, “I’m just here to fetch Xiang Ying back. How your sister is has nothing to do with me.”
Zhao Bingyang couldn’t understand, “Isn’t my sister also a female prisoner? In what way is Xiang Ying better than her?”
Skinny Monkey raised his fist, “Are you f***ing getting more and more excited as you talk!”
“Stand down.” Jie Chen’s indifferent voice came from behind, and only after Skinny Monkey shot a threatening glance at Zhao Bingyang did he stand to one side.
Jie Chen looked at his bloodshot eyes, “Zhao Yushi incited Supervisor Ke to pressure Xiang Ying to lead the remaining water bandits to move their camp, which is a clear violation of army regulations.”
“Supervisor Ke indulged her idea, and I have already punished him. According to military regulations, even if your sister Zhao Yushi comes back, I would still punish her with fifty cane strokes.”
“Her life means nothing in my hands.”
Zhao Bingyang shook with rage, his hands clenched into fists.
“You all… are doing this on purpose! It must be that you traded my sister’s life for Xiang Ying’s return. Otherwise, how could Mr. Li, whose son was killed by her treatment, let them go!”
“The whole thing started because your sister Zhao Yushi didn’t understand medicine, but took a prescription to treat Mr. Li!”
A clear, cold voice cut in.
Everyone turned around and saw Xiang Ying walking over with her entourage, and they made way for her to pass.
Tears of hatred filled Zhao Bingyang’s eyes as he looked at Xiang Ying.
“Xiang Ying, you killed my sister, and yet you speak such heartless words.”
“I killed your sister? How ridiculous. Am I the one who gave her the false diarrhea medication?”
Zhao Bingyang was stunned, instinctively looking toward Xiang Qianqian and Lady.
Xiang Ying’s phoenix eyes squinted, her red lips curling into a cold smile.
It seemed that Zhao Bingyang knew everything.
She continued, “Your sister relied on the prescription, thinking it would work, and went to treat Mr. Li, while Supervisor Ke did not stop her.”
“But as her elder brother, didn’t you know she had no medical skills? Zhao Yushi dared to take on such a matter, and yet you didn’t stop her. The person who killed her is actually you.”
Zhao Bingyang was taken aback, then grew furious, “How can you blame me for this!”
Xiang Ying crossed her arms, “Isn’t it the truth? You knew full well your sister had no medical skills, and that the prescription was given by someone else, yet you still let her go to Mr. Li’s residence.”
“If you really cared about her life, would you let her take the risk? She was humiliated by Mr. Li because she claimed she could cure without any medical knowledge, leading to the death of his son!”
“My return was due to my own abilities. Your sister caused trouble and didn’t implicate me, which itself is fortunate. How can you say that I could only leave by trading her life?”
Zhao Bingyang was left speechless.
Although he knew what Xiang Ying said was true, being shamed in front of so many people – this was too much for him!
Back in the Capital, as one of the four young masters, he had never suffered such humiliation.
“Xiang Ying!” Zhao Bingyang pointed at her, “As the Princess of Xizhou, you should have been responsible for bringing my sister back, but you only brought back a cart of shoes. Are human lives less important than these material possessions?”
Xiang Ying’s red lips curled into a cold sneer.
Ah, if the original owner were here, that would be great. I really want her to see what kind of man she had painstakingly pursued – a man who shirks responsibility, turns the blame around, and plays saint.
“Bogui Mountain is cold, my hundred pairs of shoes can ensure a hundred people won’t get frostbite, which is indeed much more important than saving your sister’s life.”
“You—!”
Xiang Ying interrupted him, throwing a dagger at Zhao Bingyang’s feet.
“Are you not furious about the death of your sister? But the real instigator is you and the person who gave her the prescription.”
Xiang Ying turned her head toward Xiang Qianqian, but she dared not meet Xiang Ying’s gaze and quickly lowered her head.
Xiang Ying snorted disdainfully and looked back at Zhao Bingyang, “If you truly are angry, then take your own life. For a man to end up like you is simply pathetic.”
The surrounding soldiers listened and silently felt heart-wrenching.
They were all thankful that they weren’t Zhao Bingyang, because being scolded by the elder princess like this, they really wouldn’t have the face to go on living.
Zhao Bingyang’s eyes reddened as he slowly bent down and picked up the dagger.
He drew the blade and stared intently at Xiang Ying with his bloodshot eyes.
Jie Chen, fearing that he would seize the chance to attack Xiang Ying, moved silently behind Zhao Bingyang.
If there were any suspicious movements, Jie Chen could restrain him at any moment.
However, the next second, Zhao Bingyang pressed the dagger against his own neck.
He still looked at Xiang Ying.
Suddenly, Xiang Ying understood.
Was this boy waiting for her to soften her heart, loudly shouting “Don’t” and then rush to stop his suicide attempt?
If so, he had greatly overestimated himself…
The original owner might have liked him, but she did not.
Xiang Ying said, holding the children, “Let’s pack and go, there’s no time to waste here with him.”
Seeing her walk away, Zhao Bingyang lost his courage to press the dagger an inch closer.
With a clang, the dagger fell to the ground, and he too knelt down.
“Yushi, it’s my fault for being useless, I couldn’t protect you!” Zhao Bingyang, with his hands on the ground, cried profusely.
Skinny Monkey stepped forward and kicked the dagger away.
He mocked with a cold sneer, “You don’t even have the courage to die; if you can’t even take responsibility for your sister’s life, how can you have the audacity to ask it of someone else?”
Acid Scholar picked up the dagger.
The water bandits who had been helped by Xiang Ying each scolded Zhao Bingyang for being pathetic.
Everyone scattered, preparing their things, utterly indifferent to his life.
Jie Chen too left.
Zhao Bingyang felt humiliated to the core, kneeling on the ground and sobbing until he nearly vomited.
Until, a handkerchief was extended towards him.

“Wipe your tears, Heir Zhao.”
He looked up to see Xiang Qianqian.
“Fifth Princess…”
“I’m really sorry for what my elder sister did. It’s my fault too, I couldn’t snatch back the body of the Zhao Family’s young lady, Mr. Li is too fierce, I didn’t dare to offend him, I’m sorry.”
Xiang Qianqian said these words with tears in her eyes, looking pitiful.
Zhao Bingyang slowly stood up, taking her handkerchief, visibly moved.
“You can’t blame yourself,” he shook his head, “You and Lady are both women of gentle disposition, it’s already remarkable that you are able to return unscathed.”
While saying this, he had almost forgotten that Xiang Ying was also a woman.
Xiang Qianqian nodded, and sighed, “Heir Zhao, please take care of yourself. My elder sister has always been heartless, don’t take it to heart.”
Zhao Bingyang clenched the handkerchief tightly in his hand as he watched Jie Chen and Xiang Ying leaving together, the handkerchief making a creaking sound.
He would definitely find a chance to avenge his sister!
Xiang Ying was truly malicious, just like before.
Xiang Qianqian then added, “Heir Zhao, we have to cross Bogui Mountain next, it’s a treacherous path. My mother is worried that with no sister to rely on, you should follow us.”
Zhao Bingyang was surprised, and glanced at Lady behind Xiang Qianqian, who gently nodded to him.
He immediately bowed deeply with gratitude, “Thank you, madam!”
Xiang Qianqian, like Xiang Ying, was a Princess, yet she was so considerate and tender, no wonder everyone in the Capital preferred the Fifth Princess Xiang Qianqian.
Watching Zhao Bingyang nod in agreement, Lady and Xiang Qianqian exchanged glances.
The mother and daughter needed a man for support, and Zhao Bingyang was just the right fit.
