Song YuanQiao shook his head, "Qing Shu, I've already made up my mind. If you can't save all these princesses, I won't leave either." Zhang SongXi and Yin Liting hesitated for a moment before expressing their agreement.
"Don't tell me you don't care about Wudang's reputation anymore?" Song Qingshu was angry and anxious. He really didn't know what to say.
"Qing Shu, you don't have to say anything," Zhang SongXi also spoke up, "Since we've committed a mistake, we should face it calmly. Master is not an ordinary person, after knowing the situation here, he will definitely agree with our actions."
Song QingShu was secretly impressed when he saw how the three of them had changed from fear to determination. He then looked at the three pitiful princesses on the ground and remembered the indignation he felt when he read about the Humiliation of Jing Kang in his previous life. A heroic spirit rose in his heart, "Fine, let me defy the heavens and change fate. Although he was excited, he still maintained a clear mind and quickly analyzed the situation," To save these princesses, we need a long term plan. I'm afraid it won't be possible today. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I'll have to trouble you to suffer here for a period of time, and … and that witch, Wanyan Ping, will have to feign civility. "
Zhang SongXi was instantly overjoyed, "Qingshu, we're already overjoyed that you're willing to take such a huge risk to save them. This little bit of hardship is nothing!"
"However, that witch will definitely use this as a threat tomorrow to force us to learn the secret arts of Wudang. How should we deal with this?" Yin Liting said with a worried expression.
"That's easy," Song Qingshu said quickly. "When the time comes, you'll give her nine true and one false incantation to ensure that she can deal with it while retaining the essence of Wudang's unique skills. You're more familiar with Wudang's martial arts than I am, so you'll have to figure out how to balance it out."
Zhang SongXi couldn't help but be overjoyed, "This is a brilliant plan, Qingshu, how did you think of this!"
"It's all your fault for not having read 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' …" Song Qingshu cursed inwardly and hurriedly said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. The guards outside will be coming in soon. I will leave first. Take care."
After unsealing the acupoints of the three princesses, Song QingShu tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and flew away like a feather.
"Qingshu's lightness kung fu is truly unparalleled." Zhang SongXi couldn't help but exclaim.
"Fourth brother, you flatter me too much." Although Song YuanQiao said this, his face still revealed a trace of pride.
"Eldest Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, I have a presumptuous request." Yin Liting suddenly stammered.
"What is it?" Song YuanQiao and Zhang SongXi looked at each other. They didn't know what was making him feel so awkward.
"About today's matter … If we die in the Jin Kingdom, it'll be fine. But if we're lucky enough to return to Wudang Sect, I hope you two can … keep this a secret in front of Buhui." Yin Liting looked embarrassed.
"Don't worry, we'll definitely keep our mouths shut in front of sister-in-law." Song YuanQiao and Zhang SongXi's faces turned red, thinking that this wasn't something to be proud of. Weren't we the same as you?
At this moment, the three princesses had already woken up. The guards outside had also rushed in one after another. The three of them shut their mouths and did not say another word.
…
After coming out of the laundry yard, Song Qingshu was bored to death as he walked around the back palace. It could be said that he had a terrible headache. If he wanted to save those pitiful princesses of the Song Dynasty, there seemed to be two problems. One was how to rescue so many people from the heavily guarded Imperial Palace, and the other was how to safely transport them out of the city after rescuing them. No matter which aspect it was, Song Qingshu was at his wit's end.
"Let's find a chance to contact the princesses of the laundry yard first. I have to figure out how many of them are there and their situations before I can formulate a plan accordingly." Song Qingshu's mind was in a mess, but he finally sorted out a clue.
With such a big commotion today, there was no way he could go to the laundry yard. Song Qingshu decided to return to Tang Kuo's mansion first. However, he had only taken a few steps when he suddenly had an idea. He changed his direction and walked towards Xiaoxingguo's residence.
Song Qingshu did not know why he suddenly decided to go there. Perhaps he wanted to try his luck and see if he could meet the yellow-robed woman again? However, he also knew that this idea was a bit ridiculous. Last time, the yellow-robed woman had left without a sound. Would she come back to see a little eunuch?
In a dark corner, Song QingShu quietly put on Xiaoxingguo's human skin mask and swaggered into the Imperial Palace with Xiaoxingguo's face. He felt a little diffident in his heart. Xiaoxingguo had disappeared for a few days. Did anyone suspect anything? Also, he had an appointment with the Empress once every three days. He did not know what the consequences would be if he stood her up.
Xiaoxingguo's residence was pitch-black. It did not seem like anyone was there. However, with Song Qingshu's cultivation, he could faintly sense a faint aura inside. He did not know if it was the yellow-robed woman or someone else with ulterior motives.
After all, Xiaoxingguo's death was unclear. He did not know who in the vast Imperial Palace wanted his life. Song Qingshu had no choice but to be careful.
On the surface, Song Qingshu pretended to be unguarded and swaggered inside. As soon as he pushed the door open, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes. Song Qingshu hesitated for a moment. He did not fight back. Instead, he pretended to be panic-stricken and said, "Heroine, spare me!"
As soon as he spoke, he cursed inwardly. Logically, a little eunuch like Xiaoxingguo should not be able to distinguish whether the person hiding in the dark was a man or a woman.
Sure enough, the cold voice of the yellow-robed woman came into his ears. "How do you know it's me?"
Song Qingshu rolled his eyes and came up with an idea. He pretended to be confused and said, "If it's not the heroine, could it be someone else?"
"Humph." The yellow-robed woman withdrew her long sword and seemed to accept his explanation. She turned around and walked into the inner room. It could be seen that she was staggering and her face was paler than before. Song Qingshu asked subconsciously, "Heroine, are you hurt again?"
"It's none of your business." The yellow-robed woman leaned against the bed and sat down. Although she looked tired and weak, her peerless beauty did not diminish.
When Song QingShu was sizing her up, she also raised her head to look at him. Noticing Song QingShu's gaze, she was startled at first, then a little angry, she said, "If you keep looking, I'll dig your eyeballs out!"
Song Qingshu hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said with some dissatisfaction, "Isn't beauty for people to look at? I don't know why you are so excited."
The yellow-robed woman was so angry that she laughed and said, "You are an eunuch. What do you know about beauty?"
Song Qingshu immediately shouted, "The eunuch's missing parts are not his eyes. Why can't I see beauty?"
A faint blush appeared on the yellow-robed woman's pale face. She pursed her lips and snorted, "Shameless!"
