Shui Wuque was confused, and he tugged on Shui Mengchan's clothes as he asked, "Big sister, what did he say?"
Shui Mengchan naturally wouldn't tell him, and she shook her head as she asked Ye Wuchen, "What else do you want?"
"It's very simple," Ye Wuchen replied, "I want … Flying Phoenix Long Huang 'er to become the Emperor of Tenryū Province! Oh, it should be the Empress. " Before Shui Mengchan could reply, he continued, "Tenryū Province has existed for hundreds of years, but there has never been a female Emperor. If you want a 16-year-old Princess to become the Empress, there will be all sorts of obstacles. To other people, this condition is more difficult than ascending to the heavens, but to you, Fairy Shui, it's just a matter of a few words. Even if I don't know all of the people you've planted in the Heavenly Dragon Palace, I have a rough idea. You won't refuse, right? "
After the initial shock, Shui Mengchan had calmed down, and quickly understood why Ye Wuchen did this. The Yeh family's loyalty was known to the world, and Shui Mengchan could sense Ye Wuchen's ambition. However, he wouldn't use the Yeh family's power to usurp the throne, which would cause the Yeh family to be despised by the world, and tarnish the Yeh family's reputation of loyalty. Instead, he would use Long Huang 'er, who was engaged to him, to take control of the Heavenly Dragon Palace. However, to do this, would Long Huang 'er alone be enough?
"You want to make a move against Long Yin?" Shui Mengchan asked.
Ye Wuchen shook his head, and revealed a complicated and helpless expression, "Phoenix is my fiancée, and even if Long Yin doesn't admit it, I won't change this fact. However, in the end, Long Yin is Phoenix's father, and adding on the fact that Long Yin has helped me greatly, even though I want to act against Long Yin, I can't. "
"Just because you can't, doesn't mean others can't. Now, the Lin family had clearly developed a strong resentment towards the Long family. Even if they didn't want to rebel, they weren't far from it. The tragedy of the Lin family … Although I don't know what method you used, it must have something to do with you. Do you want to borrow the hands of the Lin family to kill Long Yin, and after Long Yin dies, let your Yeh family annihilate the Lin family and help Long Huang'er ascend to the throne? In this way, not only will your Yeh family annihilate the Lin family, but you'll also be able to eliminate the rebellion and save the Long family. "
As Shui Mengchan spoke, her frown became deeper and deeper, and she became more and more shocked. Ye Wuchen's words caused her to think of all of these things. If the tragedy of the Lin family was truly caused by Ye Wuchen, then this was a shocking plan that could kill many birds with one stone.
At this moment, she could even more clearly feel how terrifying Ye Wuchen was.
"Hahahaha, as expected of Shui Mengchan. I only said a few words, and you've already thought of so much. However, since things have come to this, there's no harm in telling you. Even if your guesses aren't completely correct, they're not far off. How about it? Do you agree to this condition or not? "Ye Wuchen said with a smile. His deep eyes revealed his admiration for Ye Wuchen. No one knew whether it was admiration for Shui Mengchan's wisdom, or admiration for her fairy-like temperament.
Shui Mengchan pondered for a while, and said with a frown, "Even if you can really make Long Yin disappear without leaving any traces, how can you let Long Huang 'er ascend to the throne? She's just a young girl, if she ascends to the throne, how can she suppress the officials, how can she rule the world, and how can the people of Tenryū Province be at ease? "
"You don't need to worry about these things, you just need to say yes or no."
Shui Mengchan stole a few glances at his expression, and sighed faintly, "I can even agree to that condition, so I have no reason to not agree to this. However, you should know that Tenryū Province is Nanhuangzong's target, if Long Huang 'er ascends to the throne, they'll definitely be the first to make a move. At that time, I'll also be questioned and suspected … How are you going to deal with all these? "
"Heh, I wonder if your men in Celestial Dragon City are loyal to you?" Ye Wuchen asked.
Shui Mengchan thought for a while, and answered, "Many of them followed me to Celestial Dragon City, and used about ten years to consolidate their power and position. Ten years of following me, there's nothing to doubt about their loyalty. Except … "
"That's good, don't worry, when the time comes, those people of Nanhuangzong won't even have the intention to come to Celestial Dragon City." Ye Wuchen said calmly, and a mysterious and confident smile appeared on his face.
Shui Mengchan was shocked, and just when she was about to ask, she saw Ye Wuchen's expression, so she could only swallow it.
"But, don't you think you agreed a little too fast? Both of you know how strong Nanhuangzong is, how can you trust me, a cripple who can't even stand up? Aren't you afraid that you'll be in danger because of me? "Ye Wuchen changed the topic, and said meaningfully.
"That's right, sister, why do you trust him so much? Also, what's the condition that you agreed to him? "Shui Wuque asked, full of doubt. But according to his understanding of Shui Mengchan, she wasn't the kind of person who would do things recklessly.
"Just take it as a gamble. Win or lose, there's no regret, "Shui Mengchan said faintly. In her heart, Shui Yuntian's last words echoed.
"Gamble? Hehe, that's right, in life, there are bound to be a few gambles without hesitation. Since Fairy Shui trusts me, Ye Wuchen, then … I'll ask Fairy Shui for a small favor. "
Shui Mengchan's beautiful eyes moved slightly, expressing her doubts.
"Capture me and send me back to your Nanhuangzong," Ye Wuchen said calmly, and it shocked Shui Mengchan and Shui Wuque. His eyes flickered with a sharp light that made one's heart palpitate. Gamble, what he was about to do, was also a gamble, a gamble with his own life. Hence, it was a gamble that he couldn't afford to lose.

In the quiet night, the bright light that spilled out from the many rooms illuminated the entire Yeh family. In Ye Wuchen's room, Ningxue lay quietly on the edge of the bathtub, allowing Ye Wuchen to wash every part of her body. Every day, at this time, she enjoyed it the most.
"Brother, where's Sister Oculum?" Ningxue closed her eyes comfortably, enjoying the warmth from Ye Wuchen's hands and the happiness of being pampered.
"She's sleeping with Sister today, Cher will sleep with Sister later, okay?" Ye Wuchen held onto one of her little feet and said softly. Her little feet were white and delicate, with a beautiful shape, just like her shoulders and neck, showing a kind of creamy white that seemed to be coated with milk. He played with it carefully, and had an urge to kiss it, wanting to taste its softness and deliciousness.
"Ugh … No, I want to sleep with Brother …" Ningxue said softly, her snow-white hair draped over her snow-white and flawless shoulders. If one didn't look at her face, they would be shocked. She was like a fairy in the snow, so flawless that one couldn't bear to touch her.
"Brother has something to do tonight, so he has to leave for a while. Can Cher go to Sister's place first? Brother will be back soon, "Ye Wuchen said softly.
"…"
"Cher?"
Ningxue's bare shoulders were covered with sparkling water droplets, and under the white light, they looked like diamonds embedded in her snow-white skin. She lay on the edge of the bathtub and fell asleep quietly. Her eyes were closed, and her delicate nose moved up and down with her breathing. Between her pink lips, a thin line of crystal-clear water quietly flowed out.
Ye Wuchen's hand stopped there, and he gently carried the naked Ningxue out of the bathtub. He wiped the water droplets off her body, and then gently carried her to the bed. He wrapped her tightly in a blanket, and then stood by the bed, quietly watching her cute sleeping appearance. During the first period of time he spent with Ningxue, watching her sleeping posture was a pleasant and heartwarming enjoyment for Ye Wuchen. But now, his gaze was complicated, and his heart was covered with a layer of haze.
She suddenly fell asleep when she was taking a bath.
In the past, she was always so sleepy, and every time she felt sleepy, she would say to him, "Brother, I'm tired, I want to sleep …" Now, her sleepiness always came suddenly, so strong that she didn't have time to tell him, and it was as if she suddenly fainted.
Although it wasn't obvious, the amount of time she slept every day was increasing. If this continued, after a few years, would she fall asleep as soon as she woke up … until she could only sleep in a deep sleep forever?
Why was that?
Ye Wuchen used his hand to press on his aching heart, bent down, and hugged Ningxue, who was wrapped in a blanket, in his arms.
The tightly shut door opened quietly, and Ye Wuchen turned around with Ningxue in his arms, and said with a smile, "Sister."
Ye Shuiyao, who was dressed in blue, walked in front of him, and stretched out her slender arms to carry Ye Ningxue from his arms, and said softly, "Is Cher asleep?"
"She just fell asleep. Sister, tell her I'll be back soon." Ye Wuchen concealed his complicated emotions, and said with a relaxed and confident expression.
Ye Shuiyao nodded lightly, "Be careful."
She didn't stop him, nor did she try to persuade him. Even her worry wasn't that strong. Now, she not only had an indelible dependence on him, but also a kind of infatuated trust.
"Don't worry, sister. I'm not stupid enough to send myself to death. You should be worried about them. Even if there's danger, I still have Xiangxiang, there's nothing that can trap me. "
Ye Shuiyao hugged Ningxue tightly, and smiled faintly. Under Ye Wuchen's gaze, she carried Ningxue and walked out.
Ye Wuchen lay back on the bed, closed his eyes, and said softly in his heart, "Nanhuangzong … Since it's no longer the real Nanhuangzong, there's no need for it to exist. Prepare to receive the first gift from me, the Southern Emperor Sword Master …
