Chapter 373 When is the time to retaliate?
The prince stared at the eldest wife closely, watching the time pass by minute by minute. Daiyu had been curled up in the eldest wife's arms for a long time.
Although the weather is gradually getting warmer, it is still a bit cold today.
Daiyu is still pregnant. Being in such a state of tension and anxiety for such a long time, I am afraid that neither she nor the child can bear it.
The prince was also always afraid that the eldest wife would suddenly lose control. If she accidentally hurt Daiyu, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At the moment when the First Concubine was stunned for a moment, the prince seized the opportunity, quickly put the dagger in his hand into his arms, and then rushed to the First Concubine.
He stretched out his hand and snatched Daiyu out of the arms of the eldest lady.
This series of actions was so fast as lightning that even the eldest lady had not yet fully reacted to what was happening.
When she came to her senses, she found that the prince had placed the dagger in her hand on her neck without her knowing it.
Seeing this, the eldest wife was shocked and subconsciously wanted to let go and chase after Daiyu, who was clinging to the side and gasping for breath.
However, at this moment, the prince held her arm tightly like an iron clamp, making it impossible for her to break free.
In a panic, the eldest wife's hand suddenly slipped, and the extremely sharp dagger stabbed straight into the prince's chest.
There was a muffled "puff" sound, and the prince's body trembled, then fell heavily to the ground.
In an instant, bright red blood gushed out from his chest, staining the cold ground beneath him red.
The whistling cold wind mercilessly hit the prince's body, adding a bit of desolation.
After seeing this scene, Daiyu was completely stunned.
Then, as if she had suddenly gone mad, she rushed to the prince regardless of everything, threw herself on him, and burst into tears.
At this moment, the eldest wife stared blankly at everything in front of her. She could never have imagined that the prince would be willing to sacrifice his precious life in exchange for the safety of that bitch - Daiyu.
However, when she witnessed the prince's blood flowing out continuously, a strong sense of regret finally surged from the depths of her heart.
But it's too late...
Daiyu held the prince's hand tightly, crying hysterically: "Prince, how could you be so stupid! Why don't you die for me?"
The prince raised his hand with all his strength and gently stroked Daiyu's hair on her forehead.
He tried hard to force a smile to comfort the woman he was trying his best to protect, but the corners of his mouth could only rise slightly, looking so pale and powerless.
His breath was as weak as a candle in the wind, and he said slowly:
"Silly girl, don't cry, I'm fine..."
Before he finished speaking, the prince turned his gaze with difficulty to the eldest wife who was standing beside him, also in tears.
His eyes were filled with guilt and self-blame, his lips trembled, and he continued to speak intermittently:
"Bi-kun, this is all my fault. If you want to blame someone, just blame me..."
After a brief pause, the prince seemed to gather up the last bit of strength and continued, "It's all my fault for being obsessed with Yu'er's beauty that I ended up suffering the consequences today!
If I could turn back time, I would definitely treat you well..."
When Daiyu heard this, her heart was broken. She threw herself on the prince's chest and burst into tears.
She sobbed and begged, "Prince, please stop talking, please!"
However, the prince's eyes never left the First Lady. He seemed to have grasped the last straw and kept begging the First Lady for forgiveness.
Just as the eldest wife was about to respond, the prince suddenly closed his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he opened his eyes again and said in a very weak voice:
"Bijun, all the grudges and hatreds should end here!
Let my departure take away the unhappiness in your heart!"
After saying this, the prince seemed to have exhausted all his vitality. He slowly lowered his arms and remained motionless.
Daiyu immediately held the prince's head in her arms and cried out heartbreakingly:
"My Lord, please open your eyes and look at me!"
However, she cried for a long time, but the prince did not wake up.
Daiyu suddenly discovered the prince's dagger.
The next moment, she suddenly reached out and held it tightly in her hand.
Daiyu closed her eyes tightly, bit her lower lip, and a feeling of determination surged in her heart.
She gripped the dagger tightly in both hands and stabbed it towards her slender neck without hesitation.
However, at this critical moment, the eldest wife suddenly caught a glimpse of Daiyu's actions.
She flashed swiftly, and in the blink of an eye she rushed forward. The eldest wife was agile and reached Daiyu's side in an instant.
Before Daiyu could react, the eldest lady had already snatched the dagger from her hand.
Immediately afterwards, the eldest wife's face became grim, and her eyes revealed endless jealousy.
She just snorted coldly and said in a cold tone:
"Humph!
You actually want to be buried alive with someone? That's just a foolish dream!
How can I tolerate you following me through life and death?
Even at the end, the only one who can accompany the prince is me!
After all, I am the only one who is the prince's legal wife!"
After saying this, the first wife did not hesitate at all. She resolutely raised the dagger that she had just snatched from Daiyu, pointed it at her chest, and stabbed it hard.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, like a blooming blood-red flower blooming on her chest.
The eldest wife's body shook a few times, but she finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.
But even so, she still refused to give up her last obsession. She endured the severe pain and crawled towards the direction of the prince with all her strength.
Every inch they moved forward would leave a shocking trail of blood on the ground.
Finally, the eldest wife crawled to the prince's side.
At this time, she was almost out of breath, but she still used her last bit of strength to gaze affectionately at the prince's face that looked like he was sleeping.
The eldest wife slowly spoke:
"Your Highness... Bijun is here to accompany you..."
Before she finished speaking, the eldest wife's head drooped weakly.
The man in black not far away discovered that his master had committed suicide. He immediately ran over and carried her to the carriage in front.
Some people shouted anxiously:
"Master, we'll get you a doctor right away! You'll be fine!"
Daiyu felt like she was about to collapse when the prince and the first lady of the royal family both committed suicide in front of her.
She shook the prince's shoulders helplessly, crying and shouting:
"Wake up, my lord! Don't scare me!"
