Hong Li's expression was gloomy. Seeing how they were chatting and laughing, Xia Qingqing obviously recognized them. She purposely rushed over at this time, most likely to save Song Qingshu. On one hand, he really did want to strangle Song QingShu in the cradle before he grew up. After witnessing Song QingShu's godly martial arts skills today, he was even more determined to do so. On the other hand, Xia Qingqing's plan was very attractive to him, and he urgently needed Xia Qingqing's help. Since Xia Qingqing chose to save Song QingShu in this way, it meant that she did not want to completely break off their relationship …
Hong Li opened his mouth several times but in the end, he still could not say the words' release the arrows'. While both sides were persisting, a bodyguard suddenly ran to his ear and whispered something.
After hearing it clearly, Hong Li's expression changed. He raised his head and stared fiercely at Song Qingshu, "Is Fu Kangan's death related to you?"
"Is Fu Kangan dead?" Song QingShu was stunned and smiled bitterly. "Your Highness, you overestimate my ability. This lowly official deeply mourns the passing of the heir …"
Hong Li stared at his eyes as if trying to determine whether he was speaking the truth or not. At this time, there was a commotion outside. Hong Li was furious, "Who is making noise here!"
"Royal father, save me!" At this time, a frightened voice came. Everyone turned to look and saw a group of imperial bodyguards holding a young noble son with a sword as they walked over. The people of the prince's residence had already recognized him as Hong Li's other son, Yong Yan.
"How dare you!" The expert beside Hong Li, Eagle Claw Iron Hook Bai Zhen, rushed over like a Roc, wanting to save Yong Yan before they could stabilize their footing.
Suddenly, two delicate shouts sounded out, and Bai Zhen only felt a cold light flash before his eyes, causing him to break out in cold sweat as he narrowly dodged the saber and sword. When he returned to his senses, he saw a beautiful young girl wielding a longsword, and a charming young married woman wielding a pair of sabers, firmly protecting Yong Yan behind her.
"Luo Bing, why are you helping the Tartar dog officials?" Seeing the young married woman's appearance, Wen Tailai was shocked and angry.
"Aren't you still a lackey of the prince's residence?" The young girl sneered. It was Li Yuanzhi.
"Fool! We have our reasons for doing this. Luo Bing, it's not like you don't know. "Seeing that Wen Tailai was at a loss for words, Yu Wanting spoke in a deep voice.
"Including killing Fourteenth Brother?" Luo Bing replied coldly.
"Fourteenth Brother is dead?" The members of the Red Flower Society revealed an incredulous expression as they whispered to each other.
"He was killed by this old bastard." Li Yuanzhi's eyes were filled with tears as she pointed fiercely at Yu Wanting.
Yu Wanting was startled and hurriedly said, "That's right, Luo Bing has always coveted sister-in-law, but I let him off on account of his young age. But this time, everyone agreed to send Luo Bing on this mission, but because of his own selfishness, he tried his best to obstruct it. He even privately threatened me that if I didn't stop Luo Bing's mission, he would inform Song Qingshu.
Loyal but unjust people. "
Li Yuanzhi was so angry that her whole body trembled. "What a righteous and awe-inspiring act, it's obviously you who …"
Luo Bing suddenly grabbed her hand. Seeing that she was looking at her in confusion, she firmly shook her head and said in a low voice, "Look at the current situation. If you reveal that big secret, Hong Li will definitely kill you to silence you. Everyone here will die. Song QingShu was dragged into this because of our request. Do you really have the heart to watch him die like this? "
Li Yuanzhi's expression changed rapidly. Finally, she fiercely spat at Yu Wanting, "Shameless!" Finished speaking, she turned around and remained silent.
"Luo Bing, I am also very sad about Fourteenth Brother's death. But just because of this, are you going to betray the Red Flower Society and help Song Qingshu?" Wen Tailai asked with a pained heart.
"Fourth Brother, Yu Wanting is a despicable and shameless villain. As for the reason, it's not convenient for me to say it at this time. If you believe me, then come with us. I will explain the truth to you afterwards, "Luo Bing looked at her husband and said softly.
"If you don't say anything, how can I believe you!" Wen Tailai said angrily.
"Tailai, this woman is not worthy of your appreciation. As the eldest sister-in-law, she doesn't know how to set an example. Instead, she intentionally or unintentionally seduced Yu Tong and has an unclear relationship with him. Now, it seems that she is having an affair with Song Qingshu. Look at the strong desire of love between her brows. I'm afraid that she has already done something wrong to you. The age gap between the two of you is quite large. It seems that Luo Bing prefers young and handsome gigolos, "Yu Wanting said with a cold smile.
"Is that really the case?" Wen Tailai looked at Luo Bing in pain.
Luo Bing opened her mouth several times to explain, but she didn't know where to start. Although Yu Wanting was deliberately slandering her, he had indeed guessed some things correctly. She faintly sighed, "Fourth Brother, I am your wife. You don't believe me, but you believe the words of an outsider." The cracks caused by the incident in the Imperial Palace were getting bigger and bigger, and Luo Bing's heart was getting colder and colder.
"Who said that you are his wife?" Song Qingshu's voice sounded, "Fourth Brother Wen, if I remember correctly, you sold Luo Bing to me in the Imperial Palace last time, right?"
Hearing him mention this, Luo Bing's face paled. Wen Tailai became even angrier, "You only used despicable methods last time."
"No matter what, it is a fact that you sold her to me, so strictly speaking, she is my woman. She has nothing to do with you anymore. Bing 'er, come over to my side. "
Luo Bing's heart was a mess at this moment, and her mind was blank. Feeling the unquestionable tone in Song Qingshu's words, she unconsciously walked over to him. Seeing this, Zhang Kangnian and the others also held Yong Yan hostage and moved over with her.
"You're messing with someone else's wife again." Xia Qingqing's lips moved slightly, and there was no emotion in her voice.
"You're still messing with other men." Song Qingshu always had a thorn in his heart about Xia Qingqing's choice and couldn't help but retort.
Xia Qingqing wanted to say something but stopped. Her heart was filled with bitterness and bitterness.
She couldn't tell him in front of so many people that she was only pretending to be a princess and was still keeping her chastity.
"Can you guys be more specific when you're flirting? I'm about to die." Suddenly, an extremely weak voice came from Song Qingshu's arms.
"Miss Jiu, don't worry. I'm using my True Qi to protect your life. You're fine for now." Song Qingshu looked down at the beauty's pale face and said softly.
"That's exactly why I'm worried." Being hugged by the other party and smelling his manly scent, Zhu Xiaoyan's pale face turned slightly red. "Now that we're facing a great enemy, it's really unwise for you to waste your Zhen Qi on me."
"It's nothing to waste a bit of True Qi to save someone's life, let alone you," Song Qingshu said lightly.
Hearing his words, Xia Qingqing's heart dimmed. She felt that Jiu seemed to be closer to Song Qingshu than she was. However, when she thought of her revenge plan, she quickly suppressed this trace of emotion.
During this time, Li Yuanzhi, Luo Bing, and the others had arrived at Song Qingshu's side and were vigilantly confronting the people of the Wang Family.
"Lord Song, what do you mean?" After listening to their jealousy, Hong Li snorted coldly. Looking at his son who had fallen into the enemy's hands, he was extremely angry. If it was before, he wouldn't care too much about Yong Yan's life because he had Fu Kangan. But now, the most capable Fu Kangan was dead. Among the remaining sons, only Yong Yan could be considered a talent. The other sons were useless. Hong Li's ambition was to conquer the world. Naturally, he needed a capable son who could help him. Therefore, he had to be cautious.
"Your Highness, you've misunderstood me. I'm just following the Emperor's decree to bring the Crown Prince to participate in the Xixia's groom selection. Prince Bao, please accept the decree … Yong Yan is specially appointed as the Commandery Prince of Jiaqing. He will represent the Qing Dynasty in the Xixia's groom selection. I hope Yong Yan will do his best and not let down the Qing Dynasty's prestige … "Song Qingshu rejoiced. Fortunately, he had always felt that this imperial edict was of great value. Therefore, he didn't announce it in advance and kept it until now.
"Lord Song, passing a fake imperial edict is a serious crime that will result in the extermination of one's family." Originally, Hong Li weighed the pros and cons. Considering the benefits that Xia Qingqing could bring, he had the intention to let Song Qingshu go. However, he had lost a lot of soldiers. It would be embarrassing for him to just let him go. With this imperial edict, Hong Li naturally didn't need to worry about Yong Yan's safety. Moreover, he had a way out. However, he always felt that the appearance of this imperial edict was too much of a coincidence. It was hard for him to not be suspicious.
"Your Highness, you must be joking. I wouldn't dare to pass a fake imperial edict even if I had the guts. Your Highness, please send someone to the capital to inquire about it. You'll know about the groom selection. "Song Qingshu answered.
"Did you know that I, Fu 'er, would die a long time ago? That's why you caught Yong Yan so coincidentally?" Hong Li was silent for a while before he suddenly asked.
Song Qingshu was shocked. He quickly said, "The matter regarding the Crown Prince has nothing to do with this lowly official." The reason why Song Qingshu caught Yong Yan was because he had no other choice. Fu Kangan had many experts around him. Song Qingshu couldn't catch him even if he wanted to.
He couldn't catch him. Yong Yan was different. He didn't live in the manor, so it was much easier to catch him. Moreover, Hong Li was quite fond of him. In Song Qingshu's original plan, he and A 'Jiu would save Xia Qingqing and leave the manor quietly. Using Yong Yan as a hostage was just the last insurance for Song Qingshu to prevent this kind of situation from unraveling.
"You'd better not!" Hong Li snorted. "Otherwise, this Prince will kill you even if I have to go to heaven or hell." With that said, he turned and waved his hand at his subordinates. "Make a path and let them leave."
"Your Highness!" Wen Tailai was shocked and angry. He was definitely one of the people present who didn't want to see Song Qingshu leave.
"Are you the Prince or am I the Prince?" Hong Li glared at him. Wen Tailai subconsciously took half a step back.
"Tailai, there's still time. We'll take revenge in the future." Yu Wanting patted his shoulder and comforted him.
"There's also Taoist Priest Wu Chen's revenge." Chen Jialuo's eyes were full of anger.
Song Qingshu actually felt a little sorry for killing Taoist Priest Wu Chen just now. However, the other side had seven experts pincer attack him. The situation was critical, so he could only strike heavily from the beginning and defeat them one by one. If he had been softhearted for a moment, he might have died on the spot. Therefore, although he felt sorry, he didn't regret it. If he had to do it again, he would still kill them.
