Sima Ray sneered, as he gripped Qin Yunuan's chin powerfully with his fingertips, forcing Qin Yunuan to look at him.
"Take your filthy hands off me." Qin Yunuan looked directly at Sima Ray. His eyes were filled with desire for power.
"No, I won't." Sima Ray smiled grimly and increased the force on his hands until his nails dented Qin Yunuan's chin. "Nuan, I know you don't like it. But it doesn't really matter as long as I like you. Your wisdom and cleverness make you the best candidate to be the empress of my empire."
"Stop dreaming." Qin Yunuan spat in disdain.
Sima Ray took a step back and slowly wiped off the spit on his face. He licked the spit in front of Qin Yunuan and put up an enjoying look, "It tastes so nice."
"You're disgusting."
"I am more disgusting than you think." Sima Ray strode forward and held Qin Yunuan's wrist, trying to drag Qin Yunuan to him. However, Qin Yunuan struggled hard and tri
"I'm just an ordinary husband." Lu Wuyi wanted to refuse."If you were really an ordinary husband, you would not show up here," Qin Yunuan said with her cold and clear eyes. She seemed to have perceived each kind of subtle emotion in the heart of Lu Wuyi, "Though Lu Family had been working on medicine for nine generations, your family suffered a lot in the period of the last emperor. Your family made a vow that the descendent of Lu Family should not serve the imperial court any longer. You went to Jinling and became a military doctor, which violated the rule made by your ancestor. I almost know why you did that and for whom you did that."Lu Wuyi felt a little bit stunned. He had lurked in the army for such a long time and did the investigation secretly. All he did aimed to…"You regarded your elder male cousin Su as your master because you wanted to know how he died," Qin Yunuan disclosed the truth. Having seen the panic Lu Wuyi, Qin Yunuan kn
Lu Wuyi looked astonished, but Qin Yunuan was so calm, "Yes, it is a Commander's Seal. It has been about one whole day since Sima Ray started off his army last night. If the calling of help had been delivered to the outside, the army of Jizhou, which was stationed in the place closest to the Royal City, would have arrived at the suburbs of the Royal City. But now there is no new report. Thus, it can be concluded that Sima Ray has already colluded with those officers of the districts near the Royal City.""You are right," Lu Wuyi did not conceal what he knew, "Actually, the Royal Palace was besieged, and then somebody had managed to get out to report. And the army of Jizhou had started off for saving the emperor. However, they had marched for a whole day but still did not arrive in the suburbs of the Royal City.""They are just not willing to save the emperor," Qin Yunuan knew their trick well, "If Sima Ray were to succeed in overturning the regime, the pref
After Sima Ray left, Qin Yunuan held the butterfly-shaped hairpin all the time. Leng Changxi’s face seemed to appeare in her eyes. Leng Changxi had never worn a mask when he was alone with Qin Yunuan. Once after making out, Changxi hugged Qin Yunuan, who had a reddish complexion. A hairpin appeared in his hands. It was softly fitted to her scalp from Qin Yunuan's ears."It was for you.""It's very beautiful.""It's not just beautiful," Leng Changxi coddled her with a smile, and his big hand turned along the lines of the hairpin. It turned out that the copper handle could be unscrewed on the outside, revealing a silver cylinder with four edges on the top. It cut iron like mud."It was to protect you."Leng Changxi’s deep and sexy words seemed to echo in Qin Yunuan’s ears, but now this hairpin had already killed seventeen correctional officers under Leng Shuang's hands. Sima Ray would never have expected that Leng Shuang
A child? Leng Changxi's heart trembled violently. Even when his three thousand people were besieged by thirty thousand people at the Yueya Mountain of East Qin, his heart had never been so excited. A child, he and Nuan finally had a child.For the first time, Leng Changxi's voice started to tremble. He asked Leng Shuang, "Do you still remember the detailed location of your detention?" Although he knew that with Sima Ray's caution and meticulousness, he would change the place of detaining Qin Yunuan after Leng Shuang escaped, he would not give up even if there was only one clue."I did. And I made marks on the way, I..." Leng Shuang was sweating profusely as she spoke and fainted before she could finish.Leng Wu didn't dare to stall any moments. Carrying Leng Shuang, he headed towards the Imperial Hospital.Royal Palace was under siege. Many of the eunuchs and servant ladies would rather bet on that one out of ten thousand chances t
From the Palace?Hearing that, Sima Ray felt his heart trembled. Qin Yunuan's words echoed in his mind. Was it true that Imperial Concubine Rong had been dead? The messages sent to him were all fake?Sima Ray snatched the letter from Du Sheng's hand. He glanced over it and raised his eyebrows to look at Qin Yunuan. She showed a sudden smile, holding her head up slightly. She said smoothly, "The emperor is terminally ill. Prince Ray, if you attack tomorrow, you will realize the great cause."When Qin Yunuan finished, she turned to give Sima Ray a casual glance. Sima Ray's hands quivered imperceptibly. Words on the secret letter were exactly the same as what Qin Yunuan had said just now."Prince Ray, do you trust me now?" raising her eyebrows, Qin Yunuan looked extremely confident."Just trivial tricks," Sima Ray threw the secret letter away contemptuously, "Are you expecting that I will believe that?""Prin
No matter Sima Ray's words were true or not, Leng Changxi protected Qin Yunuan behind him subconsciously. Of course, Leng Changxi wouldn't come all by himself. 3,000 solders of the Leng Army were waiting at the foot of the hill. The reason why Leng Changxi dared to remove so many troops at one time was that he had taken advantage of Sima Ray's suspicion as well as the secret letter from the palace to keep Sima Ray from taking any action tomorrow so that he could get enough time to return."Don't you believe me?" Sima Ray showed a sly smile, "Listen."The sound of fighting came from the thick forest at the foot of the hill. Unprepared, 3,000 soldiers of the Leng Army were attacked by the troops that popped up. According to intelligence, Sima Ray would only station his army here temporarily. Therefore, the number of soldiers guarding here was less than 1,000. However, judging from the situation that the enemies attacked as if they were dark clouds covering th
Leng Changxi relaxed a little bit, but he still held the dagger. Qin Yunuan walked to him to grab his arm through her blurry vision and stroke it. She knew after being through all these things, Leng Changxi already became a bit overstressed, and he didn't want to trust anyone else. But Qin Yunuan also knew they had to choose to trust Wanyan Su now."Let me explain." Qin Yunuan began to explain slowly, "Originally, I asked Yuanyang to take the commander's token to ask help from Qingzhou officials. But unexpectedly, Sima Ray already bribed seven prefectural governors, including the one in Qingzhou. So Qingzhou governor refused to send his army to help us and even put Yuanyang into prison. At the risk of death, Yuanyang escaped to Luguan which Prince Wanyan governs. He recognized that Yuanyang was my servant girl and learned from her about what happened these days in the Royal City."Leng Changxi gradually loosed his grip on the dagger but didn't relax his vig
From what Wanyan Su told her, Qin Yunuan got two pieces of information. One was that Sima Ray already held power, or he wouldn't have the imperial seal to issue the arrest order. The other was that he had many henchmen in Qingzhou, given that the arrest order and they nearly showed up here at the same time.The entrance check near the gate was stricter than before. Even farmers, who lived in the suburb area and went to town to sell vegetables every day, would take strict security checks. The huge group Wanyan Su led had drawn many people's attention. So soldiers came to question them when they were still meters away from the gate.Wanyan Su and his men already disguised themselves to pretend they were a trade caravan, by specially filling three carriages with spices to cover the blood smell of Leng Changxi's wound. However, gate guards were too sharp."All people, get off."Qin Yunuan sat bolt upright in the carriage while Leng Cha
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
