"Hehe …" Murong Qiqi smiled sweetly at Feng Cang's praise. "Your Highness, one should always have a trump card, right? Otherwise, if everything was seen clearly by others, then there would be no camouflage. I don't believe that Your Highness doesn't have another identity … "
Murong Qiqi's cleverness made Feng Cang bite her finger. "Qingqing, it's not good for a woman to be smart. If she's too smart, men won't dare to love her! However, since you're so smart, I'll accept you so that you won't harm others! I'm not a Buddha, and I don't have the selflessness to save all living beings. I only need to save you in this life … "
"Does that mean that Your Highness also has a secret?" Murong Qiqi wasn't swayed by Feng Cang's' honeyed words'. Instead, she grasped Feng Cang's intention to change the topic. She smiled and lifted Feng Cang's chin, blowing air at him.
"Don't worry, I won't pry into Your Highness's little secrets. A husband and wife should have some freedom between them. Only then can a marriage last. Thus, Your Highness can keep your secret. I have the patience to wait for you to confess yourself! Furthermore, slowly uncovering Your Highness's unknown side is more to my liking. I'm more than happy to uncover Your Highness's mysterious veil myself! That will give me a greater sense of accomplishment! "
Murong Qiqi's reply surprised Feng Cang. If it was a normal person, they would definitely get to the bottom of it, especially women. They would always uncover new things to satisfy their curiosity, but Murong Qiqi was different.
Feng Cang, who had wanted to confess everything, was in a great mood when he heard Murong Qiqi's last words. Since she treated him as a treasure and wanted to slowly uncover it, he might as well let her be. As long as she was happy.
When Murong Qiqi treated Feng Cang as a treasure and wanted to explore it herself, she didn't know that she was also a huge treasure in Feng Cang's eyes. Mysterious and full of temptation, it could bring different surprises to people every time. He was like an explorer, constantly uncovering the unknown side of her and enjoying this wonderful process.
After the competition, there were three days of rest. Beizhou's temporary contestants had all passed the competition, which made the people of Yongzhou City very happy. It was almost the New Year, and the people who had been busy for a year were all resting at home. They organized a lion and dragon dance to celebrate Beizhou's passing of the competition.
Contrary to the happiness of the people, Jialan Lianyi received a secret report from Nanfeng Kingdom soon after he returned to the station.
"What!" Jialan Lianyi froze when he saw the contents of the secret report. "The Emperor has passed? Is the Imperial Noble Consort crazy? The Crown Prince ascended the throne? His Royal Highness is imprisoned? How it is! "
When he left, he, Emperor, he Lianyi, and said., Lianyi, "Jiu, I. Li Long, Chen, "Li, Lin, Li, Chen, and, I, and said, I, you, Li, I.
Jialan Lianyi didn't believe the contents of the secret report at all. He suspected that this letter was fake! It was only when Jialan Lianyi checked the wax emblem on the envelope and confirmed that it was the orchid of the Jialan Family that he believed it.
It was unbelievable! Wasn't Mingyue Cheng a hostage in Xiqi? Why did he appear in Nanfeng Kingdom? Who helped Mingyue Cheng? Who had the guts to do so?
Time didn't allow Jialan Lianyi to think about so many questions. He had to move his funds in Youyun Sixteen Prefectures and rush back to Nanfeng Kingdom! Now that the imperial noble consort's only son, Mingyue Hui, was in Mingyue Cheng's hands, he had to spend money to recruit soldiers and unite with the officials in the court to deal with Mingyue Cheng!
Mingyue Hui was the hope of the Jialan Family's prosperity. Only when Mingyue Hui became the Emperor could their family's interests be protected. As for this Mingyue Cheng, he was like a ghost that refused to go away. He had been a hostage for ten years and his wild ambition hadn't been extinguished. He actually returned to the court to take control of the situation and turned the situation around. How could this be!
Thinking of this, Jialan Lianyi linked the death of Nanfeng Kingdom's Emperor Ming Feng Jing and imperial noble consort, He Lan Min, to Mingyue Cheng. How did he return to the country? Why did he suddenly return? And it was such a coincidence that he came back just in time for the Emperor's death? Could it be that there were still people supporting Mingyue Cheng in the court and all of this was done by Mingyue Cheng?
Now, Jialan Lianyi was very sure that this matter was related to Mingyue Cheng. He immediately made preparations for Long Duo. The two of them bid farewell to Feng Cang and hurried out of the city.
Although it was windy and snowy and the road was not easy to walk, Jialan Lianyi was clear that this matter was related to their interests. Therefore, even if the weather was bad, they still had to hurry.
However, just as they left Harmony Prefecture City, after walking for less than ten li, they were surrounded by a man with a knife scar and a shorty.
If it was any other time, Jialan Lianyi would definitely not give them money and would even beat them up. However, it was different now. He lacked time and could not delay on the road.
"Heroes, we are merchants and are rushing home for the New Year. Heroes, please do us a favor! Leave this money for the heroes to eat and drink! " Jialan Lianyi took out a silver pouch and showed everyone that it was gold. Then, he threw the silver pouch to the shorty.
Having been out doing business all year round, Jialan Lianyi was used to seeing bandits and robbers. Now that it was before the new year, it was the time for bandits to commit crimes. Therefore, Jialan Lianyi naturally thought of the knife-scarred man as the leader of the bandits and their actions as a "robbery".
Seeing that Jialan Lianyi was at death's door but was still so naive, the shorty couldn't help but laugh. He weighed the money pouch and threw it to Jialan Lianyi.
"Not enough?" Jialan Lianyi was a little angry. The gold in the money pouch was enough for these people to eat and drink well for a few years, but they actually thought it was too little! How greedy! However, the matter was urgent and he could not delay on the road for too long. Thus, Jialan Lianyi took out another silver pouch.
"Heroes, this is all the money I have. Please do us a favor! My old mother is sick and is waiting for me to go back and take care of her. Heroes, please be magnanimous! "
Jialan Lianyi lied more smoothly than defecating. This caused the knife scar man to snort lightly. "Young Master Jialan, didn't your mother pass away a long time ago? How come there's another Old Mother now? Could it be that Young Master Jialan is wild and not domesticated? Is that why your mother is still alive? "
