Looking at Khubilai, who had been sleeping on the ground for most of the night, Song Qingshu also fell into deep thought. He was hesitating about whether or not to replace him.
Now was a great opportunity. According to history, Khubilai would eventually become the ruler of Mongolia. If he killed him now and disguised himself as him, then wouldn't the Mongolian empire be in his hands in the future?
But after some consideration, he gave up on this idea. First of all, he would kill a Mongolian prince in front of Yarun and then impersonate him to take over the empire. Song Qingshu didn't think he had the charisma to make Khubilai so loyal and willing to cooperate with him without regard for his own country.
Disguising himself was his biggest trump card. If it was exposed, there would be a lot of trouble.
On the other hand, Khubilai had a lot of trusted subordinates. He also had an upright princess and many concubines. Even if he could disguise himself to fool most people, it would be difficult to fool his trusted subordinates, not to mention those who shared his bed with him.
Most importantly, Khubilai wasn't the only ruler of Helin City. Ali Buge, Hai Wanli, and many others were watching him make mistakes. There was also Temujin above him. If he made the slightest mistake while impersonating Khubilai, he would be doomed.
If he was with Zhao Min right now, he could discuss how much power the Ruyang Palace had in the city and if they could guarantee that he could successfully impersonate Khubilai. But now that he was alone, he gave up on taking such a big risk.
"I'm talking to you!" Seeing that he wasn't talking, Princess Yarun shook his arm. She didn't expect to speak in such a coquettish tone.
"How about we kill him?" Song Qingshu said in a low voice.
"Kill … him?" Princess Yarun was shocked and her voice started to stutter. "That's not a good idea. He … he's one of the princes, and he has subordinates outside."
"Then let him go?" Song Qingshu asked.
Princess Yarun still shook her head and blushed. "No, he saw me last night … with that look on his face, how could I let him go?"
"You're not killing him or letting him go? What do you want?" Song Qingshu was amused.
Princess Yalun was a little embarrassed. "I'm just asking you because I don't know."
Just then, there was a sudden commotion in the distance. Princess Yalun was taken aback. "What's going on outside?" She sat up straight and tried to see what was going on outside, but how could she see anything from where she was?
Song Qingshu listened carefully for a while and quickly said, "Quickly put on your clothes, there's trouble coming."
"Huh?" Princess Yalun was still confused.
Song Qingshu explained, "Someone seems to be trying to break in. I think the leader is Brother Ali. Khubilai's men are trying to stop them."
Princess Yalun blinked her eyes. "What about my men?"
Song Qingshu was speechless. "Of course your people are at a loss. They don't know what happened to you, so they don't know who to help."
Princess Yalun said angrily as she put on her clothes, "These b * stards, we still haven't settled the score with them for letting Hu Bilie in." At the same time, she was anxious. "What should I do now? Brother Ali must have come prepared. He's probably here for … for …"
She couldn't bring herself to say the word "catch". She even suspected that this was all Brother Ali's doing.
Song Qingshu had already arrived in front of Hu Bilie. He quickly helped him put on his clothes and unsealed his acupuncture points.
Seeing Hu Bilie slowly open his eyes, Princess Yalun was about to scream when Song Qingshu said to him, "Look at my eyes ~"
Hu Bilie's eyes quickly became cloudy again. Then, he heard Song Qingshu ask, "Did you drug Yalun last night?" Actually, people of high status like him were usually people with strong wills. It wasn't easy to hypnotize them. If he hadn't been drugged and was in a daze, he wouldn't have succeeded so easily.
Hu Bilie shook his head. "No."
Song Qingshu asked, "Then why are you here so coincidentally?"
"I just came to see her. Her maid said that she invited me in, so of course I came in," Hu Bilie replied. His breathing suddenly quickened. "When I saw her at big brother's wedding, I saw her sweet smile and curved eyes. I fell in love with her. In the past, when big brother was here, I couldn't do anything about it. But now that he's gone, I won't let go of any chance to get her."
Song Qingshu was speechless. So there was such a twisted love between them.
Princess Yalun was furious and embarrassed. She walked over and was about to hit him. "I'm your sister-in-law!"
Song Qingshu quickly stopped her. What kind of joke was this? The Soul Shifting Technique wasn't omnipotent. She might wake up if she got hit.
After finally calming Yalun down, Song Qingshu said to Hu Bilie, "Do you remember what happened yesterday?"
Hu Bilie replied mechanically, "I was brought in by Tuo Ya. Then, I saw Yalun in the bathtub. Her shoulders were so white …"
Seeing Princess Yalun's face turn red, Song QingShu hurriedly interrupted her, "No, it's all just a dream. You don't remember what happened yesterday."
"Dream?" Hu Bilie was confused.
"That's right." Song Qingshu continued to guide him. "You drank Tuo Ya's medicine yesterday and then fainted. Tuo Ya must have drugged you."
"Tuo Ya drugged me. I fainted last night," Hu Bilie repeated mechanically.
"Now that you're awake, you can leave. Your men are still outside," Song Qingshu continued.
Hu Bilie nodded and left the room.
Princess Yalun was stunned by the whole process. "Is this hypnosis?" The Mongolians had been fighting all over the world and had come into contact with many western missionaries. As a high-ranking official, she had heard about this.
Song Qingshu nodded. "Something like that."
Princess Yalun was a little alarmed. "Did you use the same sorcery on me last night?"
Song Qingshu said angrily, "Then do you remember what happened last night?"
How could she not remember? That was something she had never experienced before. She remembered every second of it clearly.
Yalun's face turned red. "What if it was a dream you created for me?"
Song Qingshu smiled. "You can think of it as a dream."
Yalun knew that it wasn't very likely, but she still said, "I don't care what happened yesterday, but you can't use this on me again."
Song Qingshu nodded. "I usually don't use this on women. It's no different from people like Tian Boguang and Yunzhonghe."
Princess Yalun didn't know who Tian Boguang and Yunzhonghe were, but after hearing his promise, she relaxed.
Just then, hurried footsteps could be heard. Then, Ali Buge's surprised voice came from outside. "Good, Fourth Brother, you're here!"
Hu Bilie's voice also came. He had obviously returned to normal. "What do you mean?"
Ali Buge laughed coldly. "You know what you did. A man and a woman were alone in the middle of the night. Don't be afraid, I'll get justice for you."
As he spoke, he ordered his subordinates, "Capture this bastard who bullies his brother and his wife."
His men all came forward. They were Hu Bilie's men. They all came out to protect their master and started fighting.
