Hai Wanli immediately said, "You can't say something like that. The Yellow Robe of Green Feather is a mortal enemy of us Mongolians. How could I order her around?"
"Then who did the Consort send to deal with Wa Chen?" Song Qingshu knew that she would never admit it, but he wasn't sure if she had allied with the Tongtian shaman or Huo Qingtong. At present, it seemed that Huo Qingtong was more likely. Unfortunately, that woman wouldn't tell me the truth. Thinking about Huo Qingtong's refusal, he felt a headache coming on.
"Who said I sent someone to deal with Wa Chen? It was you and the Great Shaman who killed him. Don't put the blame on me. "Hai Wanli denied it seriously.
Song Qingshu wasn't surprised by her answer. Of course, she wouldn't admit that she had anything to do with this matter at this time. "Why did the Consort come here today?"
Hai Wanli revealed a faint smile. "I've stayed in Helin City for too long, so I came out to get some exercise. The Great Clan wouldn't have any objections, would they?"
"Of course not," Song Qingshu was a little curious. "Why did the Consort suddenly become so cold to me? It wasn't like this before."
Hai Wanli pursed her lips and smiled. "Don't the Great Clan know that women are the most fickle?"
Song Qingshu sighed. "It seems that I'm no longer of any use now that Wa Chen is dead. No wonder the Consort is like this."
"There are many things that are meaningless when said out loud." Hai Wanli moved closer to him, bringing with him a wisp of fragrance. "As a former ally, let me give you a friendly reminder. Your top priority is to think about how to survive in Helin City."
Song Qingshu frowned. He also knew that the losses this time were too heavy. The two who survived would definitely be held responsible. Because he was only a guest of the Shuiyue Clan, the main responsibility definitely wouldn't fall on him, and he couldn't bear this responsibility. But because his words didn't carry much weight, Temujin's words could decide his life or death. In addition, he had escaped from the Western Xia, so the people of Helin City already had an extremely bad impression of him.
"Oh right, that maid of yours thought you were dead and ran back crying. She was quite sad. It would be a pity for such a good girl to die with you. Let me help you take care of her." Hai Shen said again.
Song Qingshu was overjoyed. With the Wind Lady by his side, he would always be restricted in his actions. Now that she had taken him away, it was for the best. Of course, he did not show any signs of it on his face. Instead, he revealed an angry expression, "Isn't it too much for the Princess to do this?"
Sea Wander didn't mind at all. "You can talk to me about this after you pass this tribulation." With that, he turned to leave.
Song Qingshu pretended to chase after her, but suddenly, a black shadow blocked his way. Looking closely, it should be the shadow assassin from before. Seeing the other party staring at him with unfriendly eyes, he couldn't help but laugh, "I'm very curious. You've worked so hard for her, but have you ever gotten close to her?"
The shadow assassin held his breath and glared at him angrily. "It's none of your business!" His voice was extremely hoarse, with a strong murderous intent. His style of speaking was somewhat similar to that of the Central Plains' Little Red. Was this the style of these assassins?
Song Qingshu let out a long sigh. "Listen to me, bootlickers have no future. Bootlickers will end up with nothing."
The shadow assassin: "…"
Hai Shen: "…"
In the end, the two left. Although the shadow assassin wanted to fight with Song Qingshu, Hai Shen stopped him. The shadow assassin, who saw her as a goddess, naturally obeyed her.
Song Qingshu returned to the tent and began to meditate, thinking about how to deal with the Helin Empress. Although he was a little worried, he was not too anxious. After all, he had Tongtian shaman to help him secretly. In order not to be exposed, he could not just sit back and watch something happen to him.
Instead, he was most worried about Li Mochou and Aman. He did not know where they would go next. The people of the Tieyan tribe had already left with Huo Qingtong. He did not know if they could find them. dm
A few days later, the group returned to the city of Helin. Ten miles outside the city, the commander of the Qie Xue army, Naya, personally came to pick them up. Although it was said to be 'picking up', it felt more like 'arresting'.
The army under Elder Wu Sun's command was taken over by a special person. He and Song Qingshu were 'invited' to go directly to the palace to see the Khan.
Although he already had a plan in mind, Elder Wu Sun was still a little scared. His heart was beating many times faster than usual, and his legs were also a little weak.
On the other hand, Song Qingshu was much calmer. This was not because he was mentally strong, but because he had more confidence.
Inside the palace, as expected, there were not many people present. Other than Temujin sitting at the head of the table, Tongtian Shaman sat next to him. Below him were the "ladyboy" Li Chi Mei, the Emperor's tutor "Ba Siba", and Naya 'a. The most surprising thing was that sitting next to them was a girl in a white dress who looked like a fairy. Who else could it be but Jin Bingyun?
It should be noted that even Khubilai and Xulewu were not present, not to mention the other families and nobles. The fact that a girl like her was present was worth pondering.
It seemed that the connection between the Palace of Sorcerers and Temujin was deeper than they had imagined. Jin Bingyun's presence here was definitely not due to her own abilities, but because of her identity. She represented the Palace of Sorcerers and Pang Ban.
The atmosphere in the palace was very heavy. Temujin was the first to break the silence. "Tell me everything that happened on the way here." He spoke without any expression, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Elder Wu Sun hurriedly recounted his journey to the Tieyan tribe, his search for the Gaochang labyrinth in the desert, and his encounter with a sandstorm. Of course, he did not honestly tell them everything. He avoided the important details and focused on the trivial ones, which he had already discussed with Song Qingshu.
"This Yellow Shirt of Green Feathers is really a big problem for us Mongolians. He has already gone against us several times." Li Chimei's feminine voice was full of murderous intent. "Great Khan, why don't I go and infiltrate the Wooden Desk Lun Tribe and kill this bitch?"
Temujin waved his hand. "Although Huo Qingtong is a woman, she is still a famous general. She won't be assassinated so easily. Not to mention, she has experts from Tianshan and is very close to Mount Kunlun. It will be troublesome if that person is provoked."
Li Chimei's expression changed slightly, but she did not say anything else.
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. Who was that person they were talking about?
"Compared to killing Huo Qingtong, I'm more curious about why she appeared there so coincidentally. She seems to know your route very well. Could it be that someone from our inner circle leaked the information?" Ba Siba said from the other side.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on the two remaining people. Compared to Wu Sun, most of them were looking at Song Qingshu.
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. Just as he was thinking about how to deal with this, Temujin changed the topic and looked directly at Wu Sun. "Even if there was a sandstorm, with your spiritual energy monitoring network, you shouldn't have been so unprepared for Huo Qingtong's surprise attack."
Wu Sun hurriedly knelt down and apologized. "That night in the Tieyan Tribe, I was ambushed by a mysterious man in black and was poisoned by his needle. I have not fully recovered and have been forcing the poison out along the way. Because of the sandstorm, I was careless and let my guard down, allowing Huo Qingtong to succeed. Please punish me, Great Khan."
"I wonder what kind of poison needle could make a person like the Great Shaman fall for it?" Jin Bingyun, who had been sitting on the side, suddenly spoke. Her voice was soft and pleasant to the ear. Even though the question was clearly to the point, it did not arouse Wu Sun's disgust at all. Everyone knew that this woman had no intention of harming anyone and was only asking out of curiosity.
"This is a broken needle that was forced out of my body." Wu Sun was already prepared. He took out a cloth bag and slowly opened it, revealing a black needle made of fine hair.
"Do you recognize this hidden weapon?" Temujin asked in a low voice.
