“Do I need to try with my own life? There are many poisonous needles on the ground. If I stab you with it, I can also poison you.” As Xuanyuan Zhi finished speaking, he moved to pick up the needle on the ground. However, when he raised his hand, he heard Lin Chujiu said: “The eldest prince, poison cannot last forever. It will disappear in a few moments after being exposed. Why don’t you look at the needle on the ground and see if it is different from the one I sent out before?”
Xuanyuan Zhi remembered that the needles Lin Chujiu had shot before were blue, but the needle that was inserted into the ground now turned silver.
“These needles are non-toxic.” Lin Chujiu said.
Xuanyuan Zhi didn’t want to believe Lin Chujiu, but the reality made him believe it.
Xuanyuan Zhi took a deep breath, suppressed the surging anger in his heart, and asked: “Xiao Lin, what do you want?”
“The eldest prince, don’t you know what I want?” Lin Chujiu was still gentle and kind. She didn’t care about Xuanyuan Zhi’s anger at all.
At this time, Mo Qingfeng and others also found that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward: “Wangfei, are you okay?”
“I’m not. What can you do about it?” Lin Chujiu turned her head and looked at him, then swept her eyes to the Jinwuwei soldiers beside him. Her eyes flashed with disappointment.
She… was wronged!
Xiao Tianyao left these people and let her take responsibility for their lives. She took the lives and deaths of these people in her heart, but what about these people?
When she was being humiliated by Xuanyuan Zhi, they didn’t come forward.
They didn’t show up when she flew out.
When she was almost killed by Xuanyuan Zhi, they still didn’t come forward.
Now, seeing the situation reversed, these people finally appeared next to her, but it was too late!
She understood that they were afraid of the Central Empire and the black-armored Guards, but just because she understand doesn’t mean that she approve of their behavior. These people, like Xiao Tianyao, let her down.
Sure enough, she shouldn’t put her hope on Xiao Tianyao and his people.
Mo Qingfeng blushed at Lin Chujiu’s words, opened his mouth but did not know how to explain it. The leader and the soldiers of the Jinwuwei Army behind him were also a bit embarrassed. They all bowed their heads and said nothing.
It’s not that they don’t want to help her, it’s just… …the eldest prince and the black-armored were too powerful. They were scared!
Xuanyuan Zhi looked at Lin Chujiu, Mo Qingfeng, and others with cold eyes. His eyes flashed with mockery. No wonder the eastern country can only become a subject of the Central Empire. The eastern’s generals and soldiers were not even as good as a woman.
Xuanyuan Zhi said contemptuously, “Xiao Lin, is it worth it to be an enemy of this prince for a group of selfish cowards?”
This was to instigate discord. Anyone with a brain could understand it. But of course, even if they understand what Xuanyuan Zhi was doing, they can’t deny what he said was the truth.
“Eldest Prince, this trick is useless to me. I am Xiao Wangfei, with my identity I am destined to be your enemy.” Because Xiao Tianyao had offended Xuanyuan Zhi to death, she had no chance to remedy it.
“Eldest prince, I won’t take part in the affairs between you men. I’ll give you an antidote for five days. Five days later… If Xiao Tianyao comes back, I’ll give you the final antidote. If Xiao Tianyao didn’t come back, I’ll give you another antidote for five days. When Xiao Tianyao comes back, I’ll give you the final antidote. As for the conflict between you and Xiao Tianyao, you can solve it by yourself.” To be honest, Lin Chujiu looked down on Xuanyuan Zhi.
Xuanyuan Zhi couldn’t beat Xiao Tianyao, so he brought his men to their door as soon as Xiao Tianyao went away. This approach was shameless.
“You have a lot of courage!” Xuanyuan Zhi was extremely angry, but he was poisoned now. He could pinch Lin Chujiu’s neck and take her life away easily, but he could only do what Lin Chujiu said.
Lin Chujiu shook her head: “The eldest prince, you are wrong, my courage is very small. If I am really bold, I will poison you and let you die here immediately.”
“No, you didn’t give me deadly poison, not because you are timid, but because you are smart.” Xuanyuan Zhi gave Lin Chujiu a meaningful look. As if he was trying to say that he knew everything about her thoughts… …

I understand why she’s disappointed in them emotionally, but she didn’t explain her plan, and they don’t know her. To the,, she may be risking her life, but also throwing away theirs in a crazy move because she’s overestimating her abilities (or underestimating his). The reality is that you must prove yourself a leader if you want support.
I do think it’s inconsistent that Mo Qingfeng supposedly only feels grateful to her for his sister and respects her as a princess. The author is really making her characters crappy for the sake of giving thr FL a hard time. If it were realistic, he would respect her for her skill as a doctor, for her “godly” save of Wangye (he was shocked that he was awake within hours), and her working long hours on the wounded soldiers. It is ludicrous for the author to constantly regress everyone’s relationship with her to the beginning. Even with XTY, it goes from her liking him and deciding to be together, to making plans to leave him once the system stops controlling her, without any event happening in between to explain the change of heart.
I know a lot of readers are dissatisfied with XTY and want her to leave him, because they, as LCJ, are people of the modern era. However, I think she would die (or worse) very quickly if she did not have the support of the Wangfu. Yes, she’s smart, yes, she’s resourceful, but clever, resourceful women died all the time in the harem, for example. Without the backing of XTY, she could not be as outrageous and offend so many people without major consequences. Even the granddaughter of the Right Prime Minister was captured and used as a s*x slave until rescued, at which point she was forced by her family to kill herself. Having money means nothing if you cannot enforce your independence and defend that money from those who would take it from you.
