Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2040 - 2048: Jealousy and Rivalry (Part 1)

Wanyan Chao’s face turned black, and he angrily said, "Ba Tulu, get out before I take your life!"

Ba Tulu was not afraid at all, he let out a few cold laughs and said unhurriedly, "I, the king, won’t leave, what can you do about it?"

Wanyan Chao, being young and impulsive, and in the prime of his energetic years, was instantly enraged by Ba Tulu’s provocation and stood up with a roar, punching towards Ba Tulu.

Ba Tulu was not about to show weakness, he tilted his head to dodge Wanyan Chao’s fist, then raised his hand to counterattack. Both were experts trained to excel, and their martial arts were top-notch, and they began to fight fiercely inside the private room.

Ming Zhu watched as they exchanged blows, looking like they were about to fight to the death, couldn’t help but cried out, "Stop fighting! Quickly stop!"

The two were already engrossed in the fight, and why would they stop just because of her advice? If they stopped now, that would truly be cowardly.

The shop assistant outside the room heard noises coming from inside, sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly rushed to inform the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper had long realized the people upstairs were of high status and dared not intervene rashly, so he quickly sent a shop assistant to take five taels of silver and request help from the patrolling military yamen.

When Ba Tulu and Wanyan Chao were fighting, they deliberately avoided Ming Zhu, lest she get hurt. However, when Ming Zhu saw their fierce moves, each seemingly capable of taking a life, she was frightened to the point her beauty paled, and her heart trembled.

These two, one was her fiancé, deeply affectionate and loyal, and the other, although unrelated to her, was a prince of Liaodan; no matter which one suffered any mishap, it was not something she wished to see.

Therefore, seeing that her advice did not halt them, she rolled her eyes and slowly fell onto the table, feigning a shocked faint.

All of a sudden, Wanyan Chao, who was fighting desperately with Ba Tulu, caught sight of Ming Zhu fainting, felt great pain in his heart, and disregarded his entanglement with his opponent, turning to save Ming Zhu. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Ba Tulu, with his eyes glaring, focused on fighting Wanyan Chao, saw him suddenly stop, thought it was a golden opportunity he couldn’t miss, and delivered a deadly punch squarely to Wanyan Chao’s nape.

"Bang—"

The iron fist, full of force, smashed down. If his constitution had been poor, this punch would have likely cost him his life. Wanyan Chao, though strong, still couldn’t withstand such a fierce blow, staggered forward two steps, and then fell to the ground in a coma.

The feigning Ming Zhu heard the noise and quickly looked up, just in time to see Wanyan Chao’s fainting scene, and immediately shouted in shock, got up, and ran towards Wanyan Chao.

"Wanyan Chao, are you okay... Don’t scare me..."

She squatted down, carefully hugged the unconscious Wanyan Chao in her embrace, angrily said to Ba Tulu, "If he suffers any mishap, Great Jin Nation and Qing Luo Kingdom certainly won’t let you go."

Ba Tulu disdainfully said, "He’s not a woman, would he die from a single punch? Besides, if he’s dead, that’s good; if you stick with me, you’ll be better off than with him."

Ming Zhu was infuriated, raised her hand, grabbed the teacup on the edge of the table, and fiercely threw it at Ba Tulu. Ba Tulu dodged, and the teacup smashed beside him with a whoosh, shards scattered everywhere.

"Get out!" Ming Zhu said coldly.

Ba Tulu saw her angry face with furrowed brows and covered with cold frost, felt very annoyed but couldn’t bring himself to vent his fury on her. Just exactly then, several constables burst in under the guidance of the shop assistant. Ba Tulu gloomily glanced at the constables and said, "Didn’t you hear me say get out?"

The leading arresting officer recognized Ba Tulu; this prince wearing the Liaodan royal attire wouldn’t keep a low profile, making a grand show from the very start; he had seen him several times already.
