"Saintess, although we've searched the other places, there's still one place that we haven't searched yet." Ren Woxing said as he stared at the bed.
Noticing his gaze, Zhu Yanxi was furious, "I've already taken off my clothes and slept. There's nothing under the blanket. Does Leader Ren want to take a look?"
As soon as she said this, the sound of people swallowing their saliva could be heard. Looking at the expectant eyes of his subordinates, Ren Woxing felt a little awkward and quickly said, "If that's the case, I won't disturb your rest anymore."
He was actually worried that the Saintess would be kidnapped by Song Qingshu like Ren Yingying and have no choice but to deal with him. However, from her tone, it was obvious that she was trying to protect him. Although he knew that Song Qingshu was hiding under the blanket, he didn't dare to lift the blanket. He knew the rules of the Ming Dynasty's Saintess and he didn't want to offend the tens of thousands of Ming Dynasty followers for no reason. Since the Saintess was safe and sound, there was no need for him to chase after her. After all, there was still a long way to go, and capturing Song QingShu could be planned at length. Moreover, he still had the intention of recruiting Song QingShu.
After all of his subordinates had left, Ren Woxing stood at the door. He turned around and said in a tone of admiration and envy, "So many women are willing to disregard their reputation to protect you. You really have good methods. Hahaha ~" He laughed and left.
"He's gone, you can come out." Zhu Yanxi lifted the blanket and jumped off the bed.
Although Song Qingshu was infatuated with the fragrance of the blanket, he didn't have the thick skin to stay there. He also jumped off the bed and said, "Thank you for saving me. It's a pity that I wet your embroidered blanket … and your clothes. I'm very sorry." Looking at the wet blanket, Song Qingshu had a trace of regret on his face.
She noticed that her dress was wet because it was so close to Chu Yunsheng's body, and her skin could be vaguely seen. Zhu Xiaoying's face turned slightly red. She picked up a coat from the side and put it on to cover her beautiful body. She said awkwardly, "I'm just repaying you for saving me in Jin Ling City last time. You don't have to take it to heart."
"How can that be compared? If I hadn't appeared that day, you would have already succeeded," Song Qingshu said awkwardly.
"Everything has its own destiny. That can only prove that the fate of the Tartars is not over yet." Zhu Mengxi sighed slightly, his voice full of helplessness and melancholy.
"Oh yes, how did you become the Holy Virgin of the Ming Dynasty?" Song Qingshu asked after a moment of silence.
"Where did you go? Why are you covered in water? Change your clothes first. It's not good for your body to be wet. "Zhu Mengxi glanced at his clothes and said softly.
Song Qingshu laughed dryly. He was too embarrassed to say that he went into Ren Yingying's bathtub. Fortunately, she didn't really want to know the answer. "I didn't bring a change of clothes with me. I'll go down the mountain and warm them up."
Zhu Mengxi frowned and slightly shook her head, "I still have something to ask you … How about this, I'll find a set of clothes for you to change into." Then she walked to the closet and started to rummage through the clothes.
Song Qingshu's expression was a little interesting. He quickly waved his hand and said, "thank you for your kindness. But I'm a man, I'm afraid it's not convenient for me to wear your clothes." Thinking about how he would look like in women's clothes, he suddenly shuddered.
Zhu Mengxi pursed her lips and smiled, "when I travel in Jianghu, I will occasionally dress up as a man. You're worrying too much." After a while, she took out a set of green clothes and handed it to Song Qingshu. She said, "Try to see if you can wear it. I'm worried that it might be a little tight for you."
"Thank you!" Song Qingshu took it and smelled a sweet fragrance. He was stunned, "Why is it fragrant?"
Zhu Mengxi blushed and turned around, "I don't have any brand new clothes here. I've worn this before, I hope you don't mind."
"I don't mind, of course I don't mind." Song Qingshu was overjoyed. What kind of joke was this? A man who would choose brand new clothes in this kind of situation must be crazy.
"Go behind the screen and change first. I'll stand by the window and see if there are any of Ren Woxing's men outside." Zhu Mengxi said and walked to the window. She lightly pushed the window open a little and looked outside.
Song Qingshu quickly changed his clothes. He felt his whole body was dry and soft. There was even a faint fragrance coming from the clothes. He immediately felt refreshed. "I'll have to find a chance to return this set of clothes to her in the future. It won't be hard to borrow it again. In my previous life, people said that borrowing books is the beginning of love. I'll take a different approach and borrow clothes to express my love. I think the effect won't be too bad. "
"Eh, Ren Woxing didn't send anyone to stand guard nearby. This is really puzzling." Zhu Mengxi stood with her hands behind her back. She lowered her head and thought hard.
"Maybe he's afraid of offending you because you're a Holy Maiden?" Song Qingshu fastened his belt and walked out.
"You're indeed a little young." Zhu Mengxi stared at him and looked him up and down. Her lips curled into a smile, "You do have 70% of my handsomeness when I'm dressed as a man."
"Miss, you're elegant and refined. You'll definitely anger Luo Cheng to death, scare Pan An to death, and embarrass Song Yu to death in this set of clothes. I don't dare to compare myself to you." Song Qingshu praised.
"Is this how you usually lie to young girls?" Zhu Mengxi sat down and looked at him calmly.
"You've wronged me. Little girls nowadays are as cunning as ghosts. Each of them is smarter than the other. How could they be deceived with just a few words?" Song QingShu also sat down at the side and said with an embarrassed smile.
"If only he was as good at coaxing girls as you are." Zhu Mengxi sighed softly. Yuan Chengzhi was calm and collected. He was indeed not as frivolous as Song Qingshu.
"As a Holy Maiden sent by the Ming Dynasty, I've naturally violated Ren Woxing's interests. That's why he's always seen me as a thorn in his side. Unfortunately, he hasn't fully digested the power of the Sun Moon Sect yet, so he can only maintain a friendly relationship with me on the surface. It's rare for him to have something on me today, but he didn't seize the opportunity to make a fuss. It's really not his style. "Zhu Mengxi answered.
"Could it be that he is not dead yet, to spoil your virtue?
Is he planning to rope me in? " Song Qingshu suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked again, "By the way, how did you become the Holy Maiden of the Ming Dynasty?"
Zhu Mengxi's red lips parted slightly. She spoke in a neither fast nor slow manner, but she clearly explained the whole story. "Before the last trip to Jinling, I was invited by Zhang Jiaozhu to be the Holy Maiden of the Ming Dynasty. You know my identity. I'm just a princess of a subjugated country, but I'm not willing to live in seclusion for the rest of my life. All along, my biggest wish has been to drive out the Tartars and restore the Ming Dynasty to comfort my father's soul in heaven. Unfortunately, I've been watching from the sidelines for the past few years. Although the Tian Di Hui, the Red Flower Society, the Mu Palace, and the Zheng Family of Taiwan all claim to be fighting against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, they don't look like people who can achieve great things. On the contrary, Zhang Jiaozhu of the Ming Dynasty is unparalleled in martial arts. He's also a great strategist. I'm afraid that he'll be the one to overthrow the Qing Dynasty in the future. "
Song Qingshu noticed that although she was exposed to the common people, there was an air of elegance and nobility in her gestures; he secretly admired her. Looking at the woman in front of him, whose appearance was as beautiful as a painting, constantly praising Zhang Wuji, he couldn't help but feel a burst of jealousy in his heart. "Your Highness, even if Zhang Wuji overthrew the Manchurian Dynasty, he'll certainly become the Emperor himself. How can it be considered restoring the Ming Dynasty's rivers and mountains?"
Zhu Mengxi seemed to have thought about this question a long time ago. Very quickly, she replied, "This is why I'm sure that the Tian Di Hui and the Mu Palace will fail in the end. They're too attached to the orthodoxy. When it comes to the struggle between the Tang Dynasty and the Gui Dynasty, one word of disagreement and they'll even kill each other. The Manchurian Dynasty hasn't been destroyed yet, but they're already thinking about who'll be the Emperor in the future. They're really a bunch of … "Zhu Mengxi quickly stopped talking, but her meaning was obvious.
"That's right, Han people have too many smart people. They obviously have ninety-nine brothers, but the enemy is only one. They always think about getting rid of their own people first, and then they'll become the boss. Only then will they go and deal with the enemy. But nobody has ever thought about whether they have the ability to deal with that formidable enemy alone." Song Qingshu sighed.
"Gongzi's knowledge is indeed profound," Zhu Mengxi's beautiful eyes shone with extraordinary splendor. As the last Princess of the Great Ming Empire, naturally she's seen the world's top characters. She's roamed the Jianghu for many years, but those so-called heroes and warriors, even people like Chen Jinnan, were not really in her eyes. There was only one Zhang Wuji, when talking about the world's general situation, he often hit the nail on the head, making her admire him from the bottom of her heart. She didn't expect that now there's another Song Qingshu.
"My thinking is different from theirs. My first goal is to overthrow the Manchurian Dynasty. As for who will be the Emperor, we can talk about it later. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty is inextricably linked to my Great Ming Dynasty. Zhang Jiaozhu also promised that one day, when he unifies the world, he will definitely use the Ming as the name of the country. " As Zhu Mengxi spoke, a trace of red appeared on her cheeks. There was another sentence that she didn't say. That day, Zhang Wuji also promised to make her the Empress in the future and choose their child to inherit the throne, so that the Zhu family's bloodline could continue to flow. But at that time, she was extremely worried about Yuan Chengzhi, so she didn't agree.
"Something's wrong, something's very wrong. This Zhang Wuji is too different from the original work. Chapter 198 Will Destroy Your Chastity
Before the Lion Slaying Assembly, I already felt that there was something wrong with him. Now that I look back at his various actions, every move of his has a profound meaning, and they all hit the nail on the head. Furthermore, he seems to be full of ambition, as if he wants to devour the world. He's really a world of difference from the indecisive and indifferent man in the original work. " Song Qingshu was suspicious of Dou Dasheng, but on second thought, since he could travel through time, a little butterfly effect shouldn't be a big deal.
"Judging from Gongzi's manner of speech and bearing, you're really not a person of the small pond. But why would you become a Tatar official and willingly work for Kangxi?" Zhu Mengxi tilted her head and stared at Song Qingshu.
"If I said that we have the same goal, but the method we chose is different, would you believe me?" Song Qingshu said with a wry smile.
"Of course I didn't believe it before, but after talking with Gongzi today, I believe it. With your spirit, I know that you're not willing to be a Tatar … lackey. "Zhu Mengxi looked at him and felt that there was now a ray of light in the previously gloomy future.
Song Qingshu was suddenly filled with emotion. "I used to try hard to change the color of my lips, but some of my friends didn't understand me. I didn't expect that Princess would choose to believe me with just a few words, it's really … "
"Are we just acquaintances?" Zhu Mengxi's voice was clear, with a bit of tenderness. "Right, why did you come to Blackwood Cliff this time?"
