Qin Yunuan and Mu Qingyu looked at each other. Qin Yunuan knew that she had had so many enemies all the way here. However, she didn't think that even in West Xia, there was someone who dared to attack so obviously. Having thought for several times, nobody was suspicious except for that man.
"It's Jing Yuanchu." Qin Yunuan said in a half-guessing tone to seek Mu Qingyu's reaction.
Mu Qingyu smiled a little and said naturally, "Or what? Who will be the one except for him?"
"There's one thing that I don't understand. Why can Thirteenth Prince do whatever he wants in the palace? With so many unforgivable things he does, why is the emperor still so indulgent to him?"
"Indulgent?" Mu Qingyu found it a little funny. But she understood it. Those who didn't know about the real Jing Yuanchu, like those folks, all gave Thirteenth Prince extremely good comments, "You only need to understand Jing Yuanchu with the mind of Prince Ray of Qi. What'
What Leng Wu said was as dreadful as a powerful bomb, greatly shocking Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan."What?" Qin Yunuan saw clearly that almost the whole mountain collapsed. No one in it could survive."It's true. I saw him clearly." Leng Wu explained slowly, "On the day when the Grand Prince's property was confiscated, I saw people bring heavily injured Wanyan Su back to the capital city right on my way out of the Grand Prince's Mansion. Wanyan Su's right arm was broken and started to fester because of late treatment. Although he was behind layers of curtains, I saw him clearly.""Wanyan Su indeed had broken his arm." Leng Changxi murmured, "Wait. The Grand Prince's property has been confiscated?""Right." Leng Wu continued, "Not long ago, the Grand Prince should have been out of confinement. But officials asked to impeach him for his adultery with imperial concubines. The Grand Prince insisted on his innocence, but an imperial con
At once, Jing Yuanchu put on an awkward smile. Jing Donghua looked down at them and laughed, "Yuanchu, you have the credit but still remain humble. I'll reward you."Jing Yuanchu stood up quickly to express his gratitude. Then, it was time for officials to remonstrate, and all of them started their harangue. This part indeed played a role in solving problems. However, later on, it became an occasion where they sang the praises of the emperor. Right when Jing Donghua was tired of their praises, a young man suddenly stood up and advised, "Your Majesty, please forgive my outspokenness. I've investigated Heavenly Master Lin before and found that people didn't hear of him until last month. Your Majesty, please stay cautious before we ascertain his identity."The statement stirred up discussions. Some disagreed, and some agreed. People who disagreed with him also stood up to argue with him. "Young man, you know nothing. The world is full of wonders. We all know a
Taking a look at the energetic parent insect and the dying subsidiary one, Qin Yunuan explained, "Your Majesty, this so-called Heavenly Master Lin who keeps the parent insect with him attempts to implant the subsidiary insect into your body through the sachet. He wants to feed the subsidiary insect with drugs and make it grow big enough, until he can control your mind and behavior through the parent insect. Then, you will become a puppet under his control.""How dare you!" Jing Donghua glared at Heavenly Master Lin. He couldn't vent his anger unless the latter was beheaded. "You're a distinguished guest the Crown Prince invited, so I treated you hospitably. But you, bearing evil tricks, lied to him and me."Jing Donghua naturally put all the blame on Heavenly Master Lin, not mentioning any bit of Jing Yuanxiao's fault. Obviously, he thought highly of and was partial to Jing Yuanxiao, which dissatisfied Jing Yuanchu. Right after he raised eyebrows, a middle-
Everything seemed settled. All left except Leng Changxi who stood next to Chen Jingrui's corpse. He thought it was really a pity that Chen Jingrui died like this. "What a pity. He's dead."“Let it go," Qin Yunuan comforted Leng Changxi and said. "We can't bring him back to life. Although he's dead and we can't sound out his secrets, we will find a way to figure everything out. After all, every problem has a solution. Besides, His Majesty is safe now." While speaking, Qin Yunuan turned to the direction where Jing Yuanchu was carried away and looked a bit cold. "We at least know where the danger comes from."Escorted to the water dungeon, Imperial Concubine Lian tried to arouse Jing Donghua' sympathy by using her old trick. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and shouted from afar, "Your Majesty, I'm innocent. Your Majesty, please uphold justice for me."Jing Donghua was unmoved, just turning his head a bit. This really echoed with the state
Just when the three groups of people were in a stalemate, there came the eunuch's reporting voice that Thirteenth Prince's wife had come.Dou Meishuang? Immediately the woman's name appeared in Qin Yunuan's mind. Now Dou Meishuang was no longer the person in the past. She was the Thirteenth Prince's wife of West Xia, while Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi were nothing right now."You'd better leave now. Where there is life, there is hope." Although Qin Yunuan was persuading the maid to leave, she wouldn't give up, "If I don't kill him, I will let my master down.""You are unable to kill him, and you'll die as a result. If your dead master doesn't even have a person to burn paper money for him, which will really make him disappointed." Leng Changxi's words made the little maid's eyes fixed. Biting her lips, she opened the window on the side decisively and jumped out.Almost at the same time, a gust of cold wind poured in. The gate of Eas
When Qin Yunuan came fully clothed, there were already so many people outside Xinger's house. It was no trifle that a person died in the courier, which was an institution set by the court. Everyone going in and out of it was recorded. The officer of the courier was addressed as Yizhang, who was a faint-hearted old man. Once he learned that someone had died here, he led people to surround the small side room closely. The moment he saw Qin Yunuan coming, he hurried to greet her."Madam, our courier has always been purely innocent. Now this thing happened! The body should never be left in the courier. She is your servant girl. You'd better deal with it quickly.""Officer Du, you've said that someone's death is a big deal. Then let us figure it out anyway. If there is something harmful or forbidden in the courier, we can find it out for you in order to prevent trouble in the future."Qin Yunuan looked around the several people brought by the office
After Qin Yunuan finished speaking, she called the little maid beside her and dragged Lu Wuyi into the room.Lu Wuyi was placed beside Elder Princess's bed. Qin Yunuan didn't say anything. She didn't need to. The two understood each other. Lu Wuyi had to detoxify his own poison."I can't do it... I can't... I'm not lying.""Oh? Is that true?" Qin Yunuan raised the corner of her mouth slightly to Lu Wuyi. She suddenly pinched his chin and stuffed a purple pill into Lu Wuyi's mouth. She pressed Lu Wuyi's chin, forcing him to swallow the pill, and then smiled, "Now, you should be able to do it."Lu Wuyi scratched his throat desperately, "What did you give me? You, crazy woman.""The only poison I can make," Qin Yunuan squinted her eyes, and the sound of weapons came from the beam of the room. A fight seemed to have begun on the roof. Qin Yunuan looked down at Lu Wuyi, her eyes sharp and cold, "It's just Heartbreak Powder.
In fact, Jing Donghua and Elder Princess’s love affair was a secret one year ago. But the royal family of West Xia seemed to have a dim future in continuing bloodlines. Except for the Crown Prince Jing Yuanxiao and the thirteenth prince Jing Yuanchu, other princes were injured or dead one after another. According to the Empress’ last wish, Jing Yuanxiao would be the Crown Prince.But he was too slow-witted to be a wise emperor that rule this country. While West Xia sought the birth mother’s status and bloodline of great importance, the thirteenth prince Jing Yuanchu was born in low status. If Jing Donghua and Elder Princess’s son were still alive, he may not be able to kick off the crown prince. But if he could be entitled as a marquis to help Jing Yuanxiao, the two could be praised as companionate brothers.However, nobody had ever expected the sudden appearance of the rumored illegitimate child.Doors opened. A tall man was standing in the do
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
