As soon as Li Xiaoran said this, the expressions of the Eldest Princesss people changed.

Because they had really been bitten by mosquitoes in the forest just now.

Not only them, but even the Eldest Princess had been bitten!

Although her heart was racing, the Eldest Princess still maintained a calm expression.

So what? Its very normal to be bitten by mosquitoes! Are we going to die because we were bitten by mosquitoes?

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately smiled without saying a word.

In the eyes of the Eldest Princess, this smile was very mysterious.

Even Zi Cheng couldnt understand what Li Xiaoran wanted to do.

If he couldnt figure it out, so be it. Madam wouldnt harm him anyway. He should just follow Madam obediently and protect her safety.

The Eldest Princess said, Cut the c.r.a.p! Capture her and take her away! The Eldest Princess decided not to waste her breath on Li Xiaoran.

Unfortunately, when those people arrived in front of Li Xiaoran, they were stopped by Zi Cheng.

Li Xiaoran took a few steps back and waited quietly as she watched Zi Cheng and the Eldest Princesss men fight.

At this moment, dense mosquitoes flew over from somewhere and started to bite the Eldest Princess and the others.

Zi Cheng and Li Xiaoran, who were standing together, were unscathed and took a few steps back.

At this moment, wails sounded.

Unfortunately, there were too many mosquitoes. As soon as they arrived, they attacked these people one after another. Even the Eldest Princess and Wei Li werent spared.

After the group of people were bitten until their faces and bodies were covered in b.u.mps, many of them couldnt withstand the pain anymore and fainted.

Among them were the Eldest Princess and Wei Li.

After the mosquitoes were full, they immediately flew away!

From the beginning to the end, those mosquitoes didnt attack Li Xiaoran and Zi Cheng.

Madam, whats this situation? Zi Cheng was a little frightened.

Do you remember that after we arrived at the cave, I gave you guys something to apply on your bodies every 24 hours? Li Xiaoran reminded.

Zi Cheng immediately remembered that Li Xiaoran had said that after applying that ointment, it would repel mosquitoes and insects.

At that time, some people didnt take Li Xiaorans words to heart. Li Xiaoran even scolded them and forced them to apply it.

Zi Cheng said in realization, So that ointment can really repel mosquitoes? For it to be able to chase away so many big mosquitos, its really impressive! Li Xiaoran laughed when she heard Zi Chengs words.

Capture the Eldest Princess and Wei Li first! Then, capture the rest and call our buddies over to deal with them together!

Deal with them? When Zi Cheng heard this, he made a throat-slitting gesture.

Do as you see fit! Do as you see fit! Li Xiaoran said, As for the Eldest Princess, is it better for her to die or to live?

When Zi Cheng heard Li Xiaorans words, he said, Madam, its better if the Eldest Princess dies! The Eldest Princess has many factions in her hands. If she dies, Prince Fu will have one less helping hand! Its just that the factions under the Eldest Princess will be annexed by others. If theyre recruited by Prince Fu, it wont be good for us!

Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, Poison the Eldest Princess first! Then, cripple her internal energy, tap her acupoints, and take away all her jewelry! As for Wei Li, do the same! Deal with the remaining people according to your experience!

Zi Cheng nodded and blew the whistle on his neck. Then, he began to tap the acupoints of the people on the ground.

When the Eldest Princess woke up again, she realized her clothes had been changed and even her jewelry were gone.

Amidst her panic, the Eldest Princess wanted to sit up, but she felt weak.

Youre awake? Are you very surprised?! How did you become my prisoner in the blink of an eye? Li Xiaorans voice sounded.

Unfortunately, the Eldest Princess couldnt move at this moment. She could only hear sounds, but couldnt see anyone.

Eldest Princess, actually, I admire you very much! Tell me, whats so bad about following Old Master? Despite your old age, you betrayed the previous emperer and helped Prince Fu force the throne. Were you so ambitious and greedy that you forgot your place? Li Xiaorans voice came from not far away.

What do you know?! Youre just a little girl from the countryside. You dont know about my ambitions at all! The Eldest Princess said angrily.

Is your ambition to become the empress? Li Xiaoran immediately understood when she heard the Eldest Princesss thoughts.

Li Xiaoran applauded the Eldest Princesss ambition!

Not bad. Your idea is very good! I actually think that if a man can be the emperor, a woman can also be the emperor as long as she has talent and virtue. As long as you develop the government in that position and benefit the commoners, I support you! Its just that youve taken a crooked path!

What do you know? Do you know how difficult it is for a woman like me to become the emperor? I thought that as long as I had military power and my intelligence, I could obtain the throne. Even Prince Fu used the throne to entice me back then. Unexpectedly, he tricked me and became the emperor himself! The Eldest Princess gritted her teeth when she thought of this.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately understood.

No wonder!

In this world, it is very difficult for a woman to succeed! The winner takes all. Its fine if you want to be the empress, but your mistake is that you misjudged and trusted the wrong person. Although the late emperor wasnt a good father, he was very kind to you! Not every Eldest Princess can hold military power. The late emperor was already very bold to allow you to hold military power and even treat you as his trusted aide!

The Eldest Princess snorted and asked, If he was so bold, why couldnt he make me the empress?

Li Xiaoran asked, Thats because you dont have the ability to be the ruler of a country! Let me ask you, Eldest Princess, have you done anything for the commoners all these years? A ruler has to care about the commoners! Do you also care about the commoners?
