When Qin Yuwan finished her words, she said to Qin Yunuan with sharp eyes, "Do you dare to pull up your sleeve to let us see your arm?"
Qin Yunuan sneered and stretched out her wrist. Her left arm was as snow-white as a baby's skin. When Qin Yuwan saw this, her face became blue and white.
"I want to see Qingzhu's left hand," Qin Yunuan said suddenly. Her eyes were focused on Qingzhu, who was trying to hide her left hand so obviously that even Old Madam noticed it.
Old Madam didn't speak but quickly winked at the chief servant girl by her side. All the servant girls of Old Madam were skillful. The servant girl stepped forward and caught Qingzhu by her left hand. With the sleeve pulled up, people saw a large burn scar extending on the whole arm of Qingzhu. Seeing the little jade-like white skin beside it, people would wonder how perfect and delicate the arm used to be before getting a burn.
However, it was doubtful that the wound was
The exalted Fourth Miss in the Prince Ning's Mansion should wear a mask made of human skin every day. Seeing Qin Yunuan got shocked, Leng Suxin put on a self-mocking look. She kept taking off the thin yellowish mask, and several brown concave scars gradually showed up.Leng Suxin merely tore off a bit of the mask, but the scar was so terrifying that Qin Yunuan had already been shocked. A girl, about 15 or 16, should go through such a terrible disaster.Qin Yunuan looked at Leng Suxin without saying anything. The latter just smiled lightly and said, "You want to ask me how and when I got these scars, don't you?"Qin Yunuan still kept silent. Leng Suxin walked forward and quietly sighed when looking at the moon, "In this world, there are only two people knowing this, me and Leng Changxi, my brother. Do you remember the huge fire that happened in the Weiyang Palace ten years ago? That day, I was there."So, were the scars on her face
Leng Suxin paused, and her eyes flickered with confusion. Is it that there was actually someone else?Qin Yunuan knew what Leng Suxin was thinking. To soothe her, she just said, “I was just guessing. After all, the third prince was just ten years old by then. No matter how vicious and careful he was, he couldn’t figure out the secrets of the Weiyang Palace without any help, let alone sending people to cover Weiyang Palace in kerosene.”“I’ve doubted it as well.” Leng Suxin had thought about it. But she was too young at that time, all she knew was that she was afraid.“It’s not the perfect time for this.” Qin Yunuan looked at the mess on the ground and the broken arrows on the pillars. What was most important now was to cover everything up. She couldn’t let the opponent know that there had been casualties on her side. She wanted to show that she had known the tricks of the opponents. The steadier she looked, the more nervous the opponents would
Having seen Leng Suxin suddenly showed up, Princess Ning even felt so surprised.At the center of the feast, Leng Suxin, who used to look so offish, now gave a decent salute to Emperor Zhaoxuan and Imperial Concubine Yun, "It's my great honor to be here, Your Majesty and Your Highness." And then she nodded towards Murong Feng, "Nice to meet you, young master Murong."Murong Feng felt a little bit surprised by his wider eyes. He just nodded and praised, "I have heard that there is a Forth Miss in Prince Ning's Mansion, but to my surprise, you are so versatile."Leng Suxin always stayed in the mansion and had never gone out, but Murong Feng should investigate the information about Leng Suxin so clearly. Qin Yunuan praised in her heart that Murong Feng mastered a powerful intelligence system.When people here all praised the charming dance and melodious song of Leng Suxin, Imperial Concubine Yun suddenly sneered, "Though the Fourth Mi
Everybody had seen how skilled Leng Shuang was. After all, she reacted so fast. But this time, Infanta Zhaojing was criticizing Infanta Ping who was at the fifth grade of rank and also General Leng's beloved wife. Everyone kept silent, looking at Infanta Zhaojing who stood out to do silly things."So you mean, my maid, Leng Shuang, wears a human-skin mask and disguises as Empress Chen every night to scare Infanta Shuhua? A human-skin mask is extremely precious and rare. You think I can get such a mask merely a month after Empress Chen passed away. Ah, I'm really flattered." Qin Yunuan turned her head a bit and looked at Infanta Zhaojing with a smile.Qin Yunuan's calmness undoubtedly provoked Infanta Zhaojing again. She said loudly, "You can do everything, and this is why you dare to bully Shuhua."Princess Jing couldn't just stand by anymore and scolded in the distance, "Jing, you haven't recovered from the cold yet. Come here and stop saying
A bright-yellow figure was striding near from afar. Seeing this, Qin Yunuan raised her lips slightly but didn't struggle to free herself from the guard beside her. She wanted Emperor Zhaoxuan to witness what Imperial Concubine Yun had done.Imperial Concubine Yun felt as if her heart were beaten by something. She hurried to come out of the painting hall to welcome the emperor."My greetings, Your Majesty.""Humph," Emperor Zhaoxuan sneered. He entered the painting hall directly without permitting Imperial Concubine Yun to stand up. He sat at the front seat and stared at Imperial Concubine who kept curtseying until her legs were trembling. Then he waved his hands, "All right. Stand up."Imperial Concubine strode in discreetly. The emperor cast a sidelong glance at Qin Yunuan who stood still. Imperial Concubine immediately said angrily, "You senseless servants! Let go of Infanta Ping and Fourth Miss Leng!"Qin Yunuan res
The candles were lit, which turned the small space brighter than the day. Leng Changxi looked at the petite masked assassin in front of him indifferently. The two looked at each other for a long time. Suddenly, the assassin turned her wrist, took out another dagger behind her back and stabbed it towards the nearest shadow guard. Because of Leng Changxi’s order to capture her alive, and the special identity of the assassin, the shadow guards were quite conservative with their moves.“Attack her injured right hand.” Leng Changxi ordered calmly. Immediately, Leng Wu and Heiying attacked her at the same time and easily captured her and took her to Leng Changxi within a moment.“Remove her mask.” Leng Changxi ordered expressionlessly.Even though the assassin wanted to struggle, she couldn’t move with both hands tied up. When the mask fell to the ground, everyone gasped in great shock. It was Princess Ning indeed. No one could have imagined that Pri
Ruined?Qin Yunuan frowned slightly but was not about to enter. She just heard the persuasion from Sun Miaoyang, and then Leng Suxin said, "Yes! Disabled. I am disabled all the time."And then Qin Yunuan heard the sound of broking porcelains. Sun Miaoyang sighed disappointedly and went out of the room. He saw Qin Yunuan, who had been standing outside all the time, and then shook his head, "Don't save her. She abandons herself." And then he left straightly."Since you come here, come in. I don't mind there is another person who can see me in a mess." Leng Suxin seemed to have noticed Qin Yunuan came here.Qin Yunuan indicated Ting Xue and Maner to stay outside and then entered the room alone. She saw the fragments of porcelains and Leng Suxin leaning against the window, who looked outside with miserable eyes. The cold north wind blew into the room through the curtain."I can’t marry at West Xia," Leng Suxin now still wo
Those words were like a tossed stone into a pool, which raised a thousand ripples in no time. Leng Changxuan darted to Leng Suxin right away when he heard that and clutched her neck. "Why? She is your sister-in-law, and the baby is your nephew! How could you be so cruel?" he asked."Stop him, Yuanyang! He dared to start the fight!" Old Madam ordered the servant girl beside her named Yuanyang. She was about 26 or 27 years old and was nimble and tough. She pulled away Leng Changxuan who got agitated with just one arm. Old Madam fixed her eyes at Leng Suxin and squinted, "What did you say? Say it again."Qin Yunuan turned to Leng Suxin and saw the sorrowful smile on her face. "It was me. I did put saffron into the cubilose that mother had given her as a present. I don't like children. They are bothering."Bothering...Bothering...A lady had killed an unborn child for such a reason! At this moment, Leng Suxin became a devil in other pe
Fortunately, Sun Miaoyang was in Prince Ning's Mansion. Unfortunately, Su Chenghai, the disciple of Doctor Sun, was suffering from poisoning at the same time. So when all the people in the Royal City and all the civilians of Qi were cheering for eradicating the evil, there were two dying people in Prince Ning's Mansion.The emperor of Qi re-ascended the throne with few concubines and descendants, so naturally, he valued Leng Changxi, his nephew, so much. He sent him countless precious tonics, and he even accompanied the Queen Mother to visit Leng Changxi after a busy day of political affairs many times. But it was a pity that Leng Changxi still didn't get any better. Qin Yunuan took care of him day and night, losing so much weight.At that time, Leng Changxi and Shi Ruisheng seemed to be vying with each other. There was only one blade of life-saving grass, but there were two people who needed it. Logically speaking, Sun Miaoyang should have given the life-s
All the people fixed their eyes on this little kid who seemed to be only three years old. The child looked extremely beautiful with big watery eyes and fair skin. He was so cute.Followed by the little child was a middle-aged man who looked strong and vigorous but was plainly dressed. People with good ears could still remember that the middle-aged man just called the little child young master. It seemed that the child should be from some noble family.Since his story was interrupted by such a little kid, the storyteller was so angry. He started narrating this story a long time ago, and everyone loved the story very much. But at this time, he was provoked by a little kid!"You kid, you know what? You weren't even born when the Royal City was chaotic.""Anyway, I know that General Leng and his wife are not dead." The kid looked unconvinced with a pout, refuting the storyteller."Hey, you kid. Do you know how many tons of
The burning of the city was the cruelest. In addition, it was the Royal City with a prosperous business and a large population. If Sima Ray was determined to have a life-or-death struggle, the people of Qi would suffer.The emperor of Qi looked at his unfilial son in front of him, feeling so furious. He pointed at Leng Changxi and said, "Get me the head of my rebellious son. I will spill his blood in front of the ancestor temple. I'll let all the ancestors see that there is such a rebel in our Sima Family."Sima Ray raised his head and his eyebrows slightly, looking so indifferent. It seemed that a bad reputation didn't matter to him at all, "I don't care at all. Besides, you never regarded me as a member of the Sima Family when I was growing up, right? You've always been ashamed of my mother. You felt it a shame to rape a maid and make her pregnant when you were young, so you never treated me kindly. I am just dispensable to you.""What nonsen
With his hands tied up behind his back, Leng Changxi remained so calm that people couldn't help bearing scruples. He looked up at Sima Ray and said, "You can kill your friends, brothers and soldiers at will. But I can't. I care for my men."When Sima Ray didn't figure out what he meant, Shi Ruisheng suddenly took out a sword that was tied to his waist. He wielded the sword to cut off the rope that tied Leng Changxi, and the latter was free at once."General, take it." Leng Changxi didn't take any weapon with him. And right because of this, Sima Ray wasn't fully on the alert. But at this time, Zhuge Qingtian shouted and directly threw the black-iron spear at him. Zhuge Qingtian had very strong arms so that the spear directly stabbed into the battlement after flying several hundred meters."Shi Ruisheng, how dare you disobey me?" Sima Ray always thought Shi Ruisheng was his loyal pawn. But unexpectedly, he should betray him at this crucial time.
Sima Ray had occupied Yu Haitang's body at the moment. However, Yu Haitang's appearance began to change because Sima Ray used the body to practice martial arts day and night. After a long time, he looked no different from Sima Ray's original appearance at a glance.Seeing Yu Haitang's shocking change, Qin Yunuan thought that the people around Yu Haitang might have noticed something. However, they all agreed to say nothing. To keep silent was the key to survive beside Sima Ray.Now Marshal Yu had already been a young man who looked exactly like Sima Ray without the name of Prince Ray."Leng Changxi, there are smoke bombs in four colors in my hands, red, yellow, blue, and green. They are responding to the codes of the people watching bonfires in the four corners of the Royal City respectively. Red is the east. Yellow is the west. Blue is the south. Green is the north. As soon as I let go of the smoke bombs, someone over there will immediately lea
"You want evidence?" Qin Yunuan raised her tone. She was considered a fool. Qin Yunuan suddenly reached out to grab Shi Ruisheng's collar. She was ready to see what's inside it."What are you doing?" Shi Ruisheng's face turned red. He covered his clothes with mild strength."What are you thinking?" Qin Yunuan stared at Shi Ruisheng. She grabbed Shi Ruisheng's collar, revealing three moles, which had a triangle shape besides his collarbone. "Yes, I remember, the elder male cousin Su has it. You were him, this is right, but," Qin Yunuan looked at Shi Ruisheng, and went up to drag his sleeve."Yunuan, what the hell are you doing?"Shi Ruisheng was shy about Qin Yunuan's bold behavior. Besides, he treated her well all these years."See," Qin Yunuan pointed at the thin black line on Shi Ruisheng's arm, "This is the poison I used to suffer. The origin of it was the Tamuer Village and the white poplar forest outside it, which
"You…" Qin Yunuan slightly opened her mouth, looking at Shi Ruisheng, who had a completely different appearance from Leng Changxi. She remembered that her cousin Su Chenghai did look familiar with Leng Changxi. However, Shi Ruisheng's temperament was quite another. The sense of Confucian scholar hid behind his expressions.Shi Ruisheng's words were doting. He seemed to learn from Leng Changxi to act in a mild and indifferent way."What's wrong? When you were a little girl, you wouldn't be like that. You used to talk a lot, but now…mature a little more, words little less." Shi Ruisheng said it naturally with the feeling of a brother. Qin Yunuan disdained him."That's because I have nothing to say to you now." She finished her words and left the tent. Shi Ruisheng wanted to chase her but was stopped by Leng Changxi, "Just let her go. Calm down, and she will be fine."Qin Yunuan kept walking. Along the way, she couldn't help but look
Qin Yunuan read the two documents in her hands. After comparing back and forth, she suddenly smiled and looked at Leng Changxi. It seemed that the two people could understand each other without speaking.In the morning half a month later, the mist dissipated gradually. The profile of the city wall, which was getting clearer little by little from afar, was outlined by the morning sun with a golden rim. The Royal City in the distance was the largest power center of Qi. Gold worshippers and desperate gamblers gathered here, crowding in the tiny space and thinking that they could gain fame and fortune. However, they all became the playthings of power."The world is supposed to be governed by the strong authority," a man in silver armor stood in the golden morning light on a high mountain from afar. The black iron spear in his hand glowed with cold murderous intent. The solemn atmosphere made people breathe cautiously."General Leng, it is me who he
Seeing that Heiying's face gradually become pale, showing a kind of dying helplessness, Qin Yunuan opened his eyelid and checked carefully. Leng Shuang seemed to be a little flustered."Madam, I..." Leng Shuang took a step closer."It's none of your business," Qin Yunuan turned her face to comfort Leng Shuang, "Besides, even if you don't kill him, Sima Ray will kill him. Even if he isn't killed by Sima Ray, he will be punished by me. How can he leave safe and sound after bullying my people?"Leng Changxi glanced at Heiying and ordered his servant, "Take him back." After saying this, he stretched his hand and pulled Qin Yunuan directly onto the horse. When he passed Tuoba Wuyu, he nodded with concern, "Thank you for your hard work."Qin Yunuan sat behind Leng Changxi. Putting her arms around the edge of Leng Changxi's armor, she lowered her head slightly, "It's so surprising that...""Nothing is surprising," Leng Changx
