In the courtyard, Qi Ruoshui and Qi Jin were still in a deadlock.
"Who captured Ah Chen?" Qi Jin stared at Qi Ruoshui and asked.
Qi Ruoshui smiled faintly. "It's the Shaman King. The people from the Western Liang Priest Hall captured him."
"Those with tattoos on their faces. What's your relationship with them?" Qi Jin asked sternly.
"They are Priest Hall's guards. Back then, they were the ones who took me away. I suffered greatly in Priest Hall and escaped with great difficulty, so I naturally avoided them. When I saw them take away my cousin, even if I wanted to save him, I didn't dare show myself." Qi Ruoshui said indifferently.
Priest Hall's Qi Jin was not familiar with Western Liang. She frowned. "Why did they capture Ah Chen?"
Qi Ruoshui glanced at her with a faint smile, "Do you know why Huangfu Jiulan returned to Western Liang even though he knew you were pregnant? It was because the woman he loved the most was in Western Liang, and she was the Witch King of Western Liang. Although he was dissolute, there was only one woman he loved the most."
Qi Jin was stunned. "What?"
"At the time, Huangfu Jiulan stayed in Western Liang because of Cha Luan. For her, he even changed his name and abandoned the Huangfu Family. If he had not been framed and injured and met you, no one would have known his true identity. He had been accompanying Cha Luan in the priest hall. It was Cha Luan who had someone take me to Western Liang." Qi Ruoshui said faintly. When she mentioned the name Dan Luan, her eyes were so cold that it made people want to fall into an icehouse.
"Jilan was the Protector of the Priest Hall. Chuan Luan was the Shaman King, so she could not marry him. He stayed with her in Western Liang for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, after he learned of our identities, he fell ill and died in the Priest Hall." Qi Ruoshui said calmly, "Do you know what he said before he died? He said there were two things he regretted the most in his life. One was that he didn't let Cha Luan marry him. If he still had the power that the Huangfu Dynasty used to dominate the world, then Cha Luan wouldn't have to be trapped by the title of Witch King for the rest of her life. His only wish was to see the Huangfu Dynasty rule the world. The second was that he shouldn't have been saved by you. You destroyed him, and also destroyed me."
"Nonsense. He wants to rule over the world? That's just wishful thinking." Qi Jin sneered. "It wasn't me who destroyed him, it was him who destroyed me and you! There's no point in talking about this now. The grudge between us has nothing to do with others. Why did the Shaman King from the Priest Hall capture Ah Chen?"
Qi Ruoshui smiled, "Then you might as well ask Jielan."
"You!" Qi Jin was exasperated. She knew very well that no matter how she asked Qi Ruoshui, she would not tell the truth. "Where is Ah Chen now?"
"It should be in Xi Liang." Qi Ruoshui said with a smile, "As for whether it is in the Priest Hall, I am not sure."
Qi Jin coldly looked at her, "Since you aren't willing to tell me anything, then come with me to the palace. Go and tell the Empress that she is A Chen's disciple and will definitely send someone to save him."
"Does Huang Fuchen know about the relationship between you and his uncle? Does he know about Xi 'er's identity?" Qi Ruoshui looked at Qi Jin and asked with a smile, "If he knew, I wonder how he would view you as his aunt."
"Shut up!" Qi Jin felt a sharp pain in her heart. She could not remember the past. Every time she thought about it, she would be in so much pain that she would rather die.
She regretted hiding the identity of her father from her daughter. If she had told her daughter from the beginning, there would not have been so many things later on, and there would not have been such a shameful family scandal.
From the moment Qi Ruoshui found out about Huang Fuchen's identity, she liked to see Qi Jin's pained, angry, and regretful expression. It was as if she would only feel satisfied when she saw Qi Jin in so much pain.
"You should leave. Lu Yaoyao already knew that Huang Fuchen was taken away. No matter how worried you are, you can't save him." Qi Ruoshui waved her hand in annoyance, suddenly losing the pleasure of watching Qi Jin suffer.
"What other purpose do you have for coming back to see Xi 'er?" Qi Jin asked.
Qi Ruoshui smiled, "Xi 'er is my son. It is only right and proper for me to take him away."
"Don't even think about it!" Qi Jin was instantly furious. How could she let Xi 'er leave with Qi Ruoshui?
"I don't want to take him away now." It was not the time yet, so he had to live well.
Qi Jin looked at Qi Ruoshui coldly, "I hope I won't see you again in this life."
"I have the same wish." Qi Ruoshui said.
Qi Jin turned and walked out of the courtyard. As soon as she walked out of the gate of the house, she saw the Empress's palace maid getting out of the carriage.
"Hong Ying!"
"Medical Officer Qi, the Empress invites Miss Qi Ruoshui to enter the palace." Hong Ying was a little surprised to see Medical Officer Qi here.
"The Empress wants to see her!" Qi Jin turned her head in surprise and saw Qi Ruoshui slowly coming out.
Ye Zhen was very curious about Qi Ruoshui. She wanted Dan Shi to talk to her more, but Dan Shi didn't know much about Qi Ruoshui. The two were just close friends in the past, but since Qi Ruoshui became pregnant and gave birth to a child out of wedlock, he hadn't seen her again.
"She is a very smart person. She was the best student in the whole medical school. What the teacher hadn't taught her yet, she already knew. If she hadn't disappeared, she might have entered the palace to become a medical officer." Ye Zhen recalled the past Qi Ruoshui and shook her head with a smile. "Does the Empress know that everyone who had seen her in the capital called her a reincarnation of a fairy? At first sight, at second sight, at second sight."
Ye Zhen didn't expect Qi Ruoshui to have such a high evaluation from Dan Shi's mouth. "Then why did she leave the capital? What happened between her and Medical Officer Qi that led to today's irreconcilable relationship?"
Dan Shi shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I don't know the details. I can only vaguely guess that it has something to do with Qi Ruoshui's unmarried pregnancy."
Ye Zhen nodded gently and raised her eyes to look outside. According to the time, Hong Ying should be bringing Qi Ruoshui into the palace soon.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Hong Ying to come in from outside. "Empress, this slave has brought Qi Ruoshui. Medical Officer Qi is also here."
"Let Qi Ruoshui in." Ye Zhen left and said. She faintly felt that this Qi Ruoshui would be the key to the matter.
Ye Zhen could probably imagine what kind of person Qi Ruoshui was from Dan Shi's mouth, but when she saw the woman coming from outside the door, she was greatly surprised.
There was no other beauty in the world, only born after a thousand years.
There were many beauties in the world, but most of them were easily buried by the passage of time. Qi Ruoshui was the only one who could still be so exquisite and unparalleled at her age.
There was no shadow of Qi Jin in Qi Ruoshui. It seemed that she looked like her father.
Why did Qi Jin give birth to Qi Ruoshui without getting married? It seemed that no one had ever heard of the true identity of Qi Ruoshui's father.
While Ye Zhen was looking at Qi Ruoshui, Qi Ruoshui was also looking at her.
Qi Ruoshui thought that she was already a beautiful woman. When she saw Lu Yaoyao, she also understood why so many men were infatuated with the Empress of Jin Kingdom.
It was hard to chase after a group of beauties.
Which man would not be tempted by such a beauty?
