Seeing Song QingShu's ambiguous expression, Miao Renfeng's complexion became more and more unsightly. Miao Ruolan hurriedly pulled on Song QingShu's sleeves and shook them as she said in a sweet voice, "Big Brother, don't make Daddy angry, okay?"
Last time in Ping Yizhi's wooden house, Miao Ruolan not only witnessed Song Qingshu's martial arts, but she was also shocked by the way he calmly controlled the life and death of all the men and women present.
Little girls always worshiped heroes. Miao Ruolan had always believed that her father was the most powerful person in the world until he was easily defeated by Zhang Wuji. Her dream was shattered. Fortunately, Song Qingshu arrived in time and defeated the big bad guy, filling the gap in the little girl's heart.
Miao Ruolan looked at Song Qingshu with eyes full of reverence. Seeing that he had always made her father angry, she couldn't help but ask for his help.
Hearing the little girl's voice, Song QingShu's cold face revealed a warm smile. He nodded slightly and turned to Miao Renfeng, "You don't need to think about those messy things. I learned about the Roaming King's treasures through another channel. It has nothing to do with the person you are thinking about."
"Is it that Taoist Yunyou called Jin Yong that Uncle mentioned before?" Icy Snow recalled that Song QingShu seemed to have mentioned this matter when the two of them returned from Swallow Dock for medical treatment.
"You still remember this?" Song Qingshu looked at her in surprise.
Icy Snow smiled gently and didn't answer. She said in her heart, "I remember every word you said."
Hearing Icy Snow's words, Miao Renfeng no longer had any doubts. She sighed and said, "Lady Hu, I hope you can help me pass on a message. Tell … her that I have given her the most important thing in my life. I hope she will take good care of it and find a good family for it in the future."
Icy Snow was baffled. She thought, Nan Lan is Miao Ruolan's mother. Does she need to remind her daughter's marriage? Song Qingshu understood that Miao Renfeng was not referring to Miao Ruolan, but the treasure map hidden in the jade hairpin on Nan Lan's head.
Song Qingshu hesitated for a moment, but still decided to tell him the truth. "Hero Miao, I know you're worried about the secret being leaked, so there's a hidden meaning in your words. Actually, you don't have to be like this. I know all the secrets I need to know, even that hairpin. "
Miao Renfeng's expression changed, "You …"
Song Qingshu raised his hand to interrupt him. He turned to Icy Snow and Miao Ruolan and said, "Sister-in-law, please take Ruolan over there. I have something to say to Hero Miao."
Icy Snow looked at him worriedly, but still pulled Miao Ruolan several feet away.
Miao Renfeng snorted angrily, "What do you want?"
Song Qingshu replied, "I want you to pass a message to Nan Lan, ask her to give me the hairpin."
Seeing that he knew everything, Miao Renfeng was shocked and angry, "In your dreams."
Song Qingshu sneered, "I know the approximate location of the Roaming King's treasure, and I also know that the treasure map is hidden in the flower bead on your wife's hairpin. Now, she and Tian Guinong are living in my residence in the capital, so it's easy for me to get the treasure map. "
"The reason why I didn't make a move to snatch it, but chose to let you personally agree to give it to me, is because I admire your open and honest life, running around for the sake of the great cause of fighting against the Qing Dynasty. Although I don't like you, I admire you. That's why I don't want to wait for you to bully the orphans and widows after you die, so that you'll be angry in the afterlife. "
Miao Renfeng suddenly became silent, and after a long time, she asked, "What do you want to do in the Roaming King's treasure?"
Song Qingshu looked at the sky, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, "I need it to be used for military expenses. I'll help you accomplish the things that you people couldn't do."
Hearing this, Miao Renfeng couldn't help but sneer, "What a big tone! Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue?"
For so many years, there were countless volunteer armies in the Manchurian Qing territory, but whether it was to fight against the Qing, restore the Ming, or simply to fight against the Qing, none of them had any hope of success. According to Miao Renfeng's knowledge, although Song Qingshu's martial arts were high, he was alone, so what use was he to the big picture?
"You don't believe me?" Song Qingshu said with a smile.
Miao Renfeng coldly snorted, her meaning was very clear.
Song Qingshu said, "In order to increase my persuasiveness, I can tell you that the Golden Snake Battalion is already in my pocket. Moreover, I have long since reached an agreement with the Ninth Princess of the Ming Dynasty. With the Golden Snake Battalion as the base, and with the previous Ming Princess's righteous status, overthrowing the Manchurian Qing will naturally be twice the effort with half the result."
"In the past, when the Golden Snake King Yuan Chengzhi was still alive, the Golden Snake Battalion was so powerful, but it still couldn't cause any real impact on the Qing court. Now that the sun is setting in the west, what use is there for you to take over?" Although Miao Renfeng said this, her tone was already relaxed.
"Have you heard the news that I tried to assassinate Kangxi?" Song Qingshu suddenly asked.
Miao Renfeng nodded, "I know. Although you failed, you are still worthy of respect. If it wasn't for this matter, based on your previous actions, no matter how high your martial arts were, you would not be of any importance to me. "
Song QingShu smiled faintly. "You are well aware of my martial arts. Do you think I will fail the assassination?"
Miao Renfeng was stunned at first, but her expression quickly changed, "You mean …"
Song Qingshu stood with his hands behind his back, "That's right, the real Kangxi is already dead."
Miao Renfeng's mouth slightly opened, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak. Soon after, a trace of ecstasy rose in her heart. So many people's career had been completed by this person in front of her.
When Miao Ruolan was summoned to her father's side, she noticed an indescribable excitement in her father's eyes. She heard him instruct her, "Lan 'er, after you see your mother, ask her to give the phoenix head scarlet hairpin to this Brother Song. Tell her that I personally told her to remember."
Although Miao Ruolan was confused, she still replied, "Lan 'er understands."
Miao Renfeng suddenly placed Miao Ruolan's hand in Song Qingshu's, "Song Shaoxia, I'll leave Lan 'er in your care from now on."
As soon as she said this, Miao Ruolan shyly looked at Song Qingshu, then quickly lowered her eyes, leaving only her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
Song Qingshu was also stunned on the spot, and Icy Snow's expression was even more strange. She thought to herself, 'You just asked me to bring your daughter to her mother, and now you're entrusting her to a man. What's going on?'
Moreover, from Miao Renfeng's tone, Icy Snow felt as if he was entrusting Miao Ruolan with his life, which made her feel even more uncomfortable. She couldn't help but glare fiercely at Song Qingshu.
Song Qingshu understood that Icy Snow might have misunderstood that it was because of what he said to Miao Renfeng just now. He felt that it was difficult to explain himself, so he quickly said, "Hero Miao, I'm afraid that's not very convenient."
Miao Renfeng felt the vitality in her body gradually fading away. She said weakly, "I've given you such a big gift, but you're still not willing to take care of my daughter?"
Hearing Miao Renfeng's words, Song Qingshu was instantly speechless. He could only nod and said, "If that's the case, Song Mou will do his best to take care of your daughter. I won't let her come to any harm."
Miao Renfeng had no other choice. Originally, he wanted to entrust his daughter to Nan Lan, but Nan Lan was already married to someone else. Moreover, when he thought about Tian Guinong's character … Miao Renfeng was worried that Miao Ruolan would be wronged if she were to follow Nan Lan. Now that he knew about Song Qingshu's situation, he naturally felt that it would be more reassuring to entrust his daughter to Song Qingshu than to entrust her to a dangerous place like the Tian Residence.
Seeing Miao Ruolan standing there with a bashful expression, Icy Snow was stunned. Hearing Miao Renfeng's words, it seemed like she had already given her dowry to Song Qingshu. Miao Ruolan also didn't seem to object to it. Her heart was pounding.
"Lan 'er, I can't take care of you anymore. You must listen to Song Shaoxia in the future. With him taking care of you, I'm sure you'll be able to live happily in this chaotic world." Miao Renfeng's gaze gradually became lax. It was clear that the effect of the Snow Ginseng Jade Toad Pill was about to wear off.
Song QingShu let out a sigh and helped Icy Snow to the side, leaving the father and daughter with their last moments alone.
"What did you say to Big Brother Miao just now? Why? Why did he betroth Ruolan to you?" When the two of them were several feet away from each other, Icy Snow gently shook off Song Qingshu's arm and looked at him quietly while biting her lips.
"What betrothal? Don't spout nonsense." Song Qingshu was instantly shocked. "He just asked me to take care of her."
"How can he do that?" Icy Snow had a doubtful look on her face. "Big Brother Miao clearly looks like he's looking at his son-in-law."
"You're thinking too much." Song Qingshu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "The reason why he's happy is because of another matter. At the end of the day, we're just making a deal."
"What deal?" Icy Snow wasn't a jealous woman. She actually knew that with her status, it was impossible for her to be together with Song Qingshu openly. Thus, she didn't mind him marrying another woman.
However, it was one thing for her to not mind him marrying another woman. It would be a big problem if he wanted to marry her niece.
Recently, Icy Snow had thoroughly experienced a certain aspect of Song Qingshu's evilness. Glancing at Miao Ruolan who was like a little white flower not far away, she thought to herself, 'Isn't Miao Renfeng sending a lamb to the tiger's den by leaving her daughter in Song Qingshu's care?'
Icy Snow could be said to be the person that Song Qingshu trusted the most in this world. Song Qingshu felt that there was no harm in telling her about the matter of stealing the sky and replacing Kangxi. It was just that he had been … indulging in the pleasure of her boudoir and hadn't had the time to tell her about it.
Just as he was about to relay the conversation with Miao Renfeng to Icy Snow, they suddenly heard Miao Ruolan burst into tears. Both of them turned around and saw that the Golden-Faced Buddha, who had once shaken the pugilistic world and was invincible, had passed away.
Song Qingshu buried Miao Renfeng in the nearby forest and engraved on the tombstone the words, "In the heavens and on the earth, I am the only one who reigns supreme. Throughout the ages, the invincible Golden-Faced Buddha, Miao Renfeng."
Initially, Song Qingshu was still hesitant. He was worried that someone passing by would feel indignant and destroy the tomb after seeing the tombstone. However, on second thought, he realized that since Miao Renfeng had made such a name for himself, why should he destroy his aura after his death?
However, to be safe, Song Qingshu engraved these words on the tombstone with a sharp sword aura. Ordinary thieves would be disturbed by the sword aura on the tombstone as soon as they approached it. If it were a real martial arts expert, they would naturally admire the sword aura on the tombstone and wouldn't destroy it rashly.
"Miss Miao, I'm sorry for your loss."
Standing beside Miao Ruolan, Song Qingshu felt awkward. It was inappropriate to address this little lolita as Miss. However, if he didn't address her as Miss, Song Qingshu didn't know how to address her.
