Gu pulled Mu Ling'er out of the palace and only stopped after making sure that there was no one following them.
Mu Ling'er quickly took out the secret letter. "Qi Brother, here, it just arrived this morning." Mu Ling'er was also curious about the contents of the letter.
Gu opened it and saw that the handwriting was elegant and powerful. It was indeed Han Yunxi's handwriting. There were three things in the letter.
The first thing was about stopping the war between Eastern and Western Qin. Han Yunxi said that Ning Cheng and Long Fei Ye had reached an agreement to stop the war and deal with the Feng Clan separately. They would continue the war after taking down the Feng Clan.
The second thing was for him to do his best to help Ning Cheng and use Bai Yuqiao to find Bai Yanqing. It would be best if he could use Bai Yuqiao as a witness to expose Jun Yi Xie and obtain the approval of the Northern Dynasties Emperors. Then, he could fight for cooperation with Northern Li.
The third thing was to report to him and Mu Ling'er that she was safe and that she was doing well in the army.
Mu Ling'er quickly finished reading the letter and was filled with passion. "Qi Brother, we must help my sister take down the Feng Clan before Long Fei Ye!"
Actually, Gu Qishao should be even more excited about this than Mu Linger. His blood should be boiling.
However, he was not excited at all. Instead, he slowly narrowed his eyes and pondered over the letter word by word.
Soon, Mu Ling'er noticed that he was acting strangely. "Qi Brother, what's wrong?"
Gu did not speak and continued to stare at the letter. After a while, he checked the envelope inside and out and compared the handwriting on the envelope with the handwriting on the letter.
"Qi Brother, you... you suspect that this letter is fake?" Mu Ling'er was shocked.
"This handwriting … is it the same?" Gu asked.
Mu Ling'er carefully compared them for a while and nodded with certainty. "It's exactly the same. This is my sister's handwriting. I can't be wrong. I've seen several prescriptions written by her. I still have them!"
Mu Ling 'er quickly took out a prescription and compared it with Gu's handwriting.
"It's the same!" Mu Ling 'er was even more certain.
Gu muttered to himself, "It is indeed the same."
"Then it can't be wrong! Qi Brother, let's wait for Ning Cheng and interrogate Bai Yuqiao together. Maybe we can find something else! "Mu Ling 'er said seriously.
Gu gave her a look of disdain. "You'll have to continue with the torture. Can a little white rabbit like you take it?
A few days ago, she had advised him not to torture her anymore, but today, she actually allowed him to continue the interrogation. What was this wretched girl thinking?!
Mu Ling 'er struggled for a while before saying seriously, "I can take it! I'll interrogate her with you! "
He didn't know whether to say that there was a little devil living in the kind-hearted Mu Ling 'er's heart, or that there was a little white rabbit living in the little devil's heart, Mu Ling' er.
Gu had been mulling over the contents of the letter. He had originally planned to ignore Mu Ling 'er, but he couldn't help but ask, "Girl, didn't you say that Poison Girl couldn't let go of Long Fei Ye? Why are you so excited now? Can't wait for them to fight? "
Mu Ling 'er chuckled. "Qi Brother, my sister isn't an ordinary woman! I can guarantee that even if my sister is being used, she still loves Long Fei Ye very much. However, she will shoulder the heavy responsibility of reviving Western Qin! She won't be with Long Fei Ye! So we have to help her settle the Feng Clan as soon as possible! Now that Eastern and Western Qin have stopped fighting, the longer she confronts Long Fei Ye, the more painful it will be for her! It's better to end the pain quickly than to prolong the pain! "
Gu Qishao rapped his knuckles against her forehead. "What do you know?!"
Mu Ling 'er glared at him, too lazy to explain.
Although she couldn't bear to see Bai Yuqiao die, she was especially excited at the thought of being able to fight alongside Qi Brother and help Han Yunxi and Ning Cheng conquer the world together, freeing Han Yunxi as soon as possible.
She couldn't help but imagine Han Yunxi becoming the Empress of Cloud Realm, wearing the crown and ruling the world.
"Poison Lass wants us to work with Ning Cheng?" Gu muttered to himself.
Mu Ling 'er was so immersed in her own imagination that she didn't notice Qi Brother's confusion. She asked casually, "Qi Brother, do you want to reply now?"
Gu put away the letter and smiled brightly, a trace of viciousness flashing across his long, beautiful eyes. "No need, we'll wait for Ning Cheng to come!"
After returning, Gu was too lazy to meet Ning An. Mu Ling 'er ran to Ning Cheng excitedly and said, "Ning An, Qi Brother said that he wants to wait for Ning Cheng to come back. Urge Ning Cheng to come back as soon as possible. We'll be leaving first if you wait too long! "
"Little girl, you're so impudent." Ning An laughed. "Who allowed you to call us by our names? In the future, you have to call her Big Sister An and Big Brother Ning Cheng, understand? "
Although her tone was reproachful, it was even more intimate. Those who didn't know better would think that Ning An and Mu Ling 'er were very close.
Mu Ling 'er raised her chin proudly. "I only have one big sister, your master, the princess of Western Qin! Ning An, don't talk about seniority with me. If we really talk about seniority, I'm actually one level higher than you! "
If Han Yunxi knew that this proud girl was using her name in private and was so arrogant, she would definitely burst out laughing.
When had Ning An ever been humiliated so bluntly? Anger rose in her heart, but she couldn't refute it. If Ning Cheng hadn't instructed her to find a way to keep this brat, she might not have been so polite.
She pretended not to hear what Mu Ling 'er said and changed the topic. "Miss Ling' er, you're not young anymore. Later, I'll ask the princess to find you a husband. With the princess's discerning eyes, she won't mistreat you. "
"You don't have to worry about my marriage." Mu Ling 'er was very direct.
"I'm just worried about you when I saw you being bullied by Gu!" Ning An glanced at her and said, "That night, if Ning Cheng hadn't asked me to let you go, Gu wouldn't have let Ning Cheng go even if he had to watch you die, right?"
A trace of pain flashed past Mu Ling 'er's eyes. She didn't want to continue talking to Ning An and turned to leave. Ning An quickly stopped her. "Girl, you're the princess's good sister, so I'm reminding you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't care! For a man like Gu, the more you stick to him, the less he will cherish you! He will only know how to cherish you if you give him the cold shoulder! Men are all cheap! "
Mu Ling 'er finally looked at Ning An seriously.
Ning An knew she had a chance and was about to persuade her again, but Mu Ling 'er suddenly closed in and said word by word, "Ning An, you're wrong! Women are even more cheap than men! The more he doesn't like me, the more I want to stick to him! Even if he doesn't like me for the rest of my life, as long as I can be with him, I'm willing to do anything! You've never been in true love, so you won't understand! "
After she finished speaking, she turned and left without looking back, leaving Ning An stunned. She even doubted if she could keep Mu Ling 'er. Did she have to use extreme methods?
"Send a message to the clan head. Gu has taken the bait. Tell him to come quickly," Ning An instructed the mama beside her in a low voice.
"Yes!" the old mama replied in a low voice. "Master An, the things you wanted to give Miss Jing have been delivered."
"Did she say anything?" Ning An asked seriously.
"He didn't say anything. The Tang Clan Head invited a few elders of the trade consortium to a banquet and said he'd consider their cooperation. Miss Jing didn't say a word from beginning to end. A few of the elders were very dissatisfied, "the old mama replied honestly.
"What's there to be dissatisfied about? If they want to cooperate with the Tang Clan, they have to rely on Jing 'er. Those old men only went to negotiate, so what can they do to help? "Ning An said unhappily. In the end, she still loved her little sister dearly.
Currently, Ning Jing was staring blankly at the things Ning An had given her.
Ning An's gift was none other than a miraculous contraceptive. As long as she took it, she would never be able to have any more children. Even the child she was carrying would be lost.
Before she married Tang Li, it was Ning Nuo who personally went to the Tang Clan to negotiate. He wanted Tang Li to marry into the family, but was rejected. The result of the negotiations was that her and Tang Li's eldest son would stay at the Tang Clan and inherit the position of clan head in the future. The second son would be sent to Cloud Realm Trade Consortium to take over her duties there.
Although everything was written clearly in black and white, Ning Cheng had only given her a year's time in private. He wanted her to cooperate with the Tang Clan and Cloud Realm Trade Consortium in the arms trade.
If she couldn't get the two sides to cooperate within a year, Ning Cheng would be ruthless and force her to work with him to empty out the Tang Clan!
Under these circumstances, she couldn't have a child, or else it'd only harm the child.
Ning An didn't want her to get pregnant with someone she didn't like.
Looking at the medicine in her hands, Ning Jing's icy heart finally warmed up. No matter what, at least someone in the Ning Clan still cared about her. But the warmer her heart was, the more she blamed herself.
The Tang Clan was Long Fei Ye's power and had been deceiving the Di Clan this entire time. She knew the truth and had a chance to tell Ning Cheng, but she didn't. Not only that, she even reminded Tang Li.
Cloud Realm Trade Consortium's elders had come to visit to discuss the terms of cooperation and had just returned. Tang Li must be secretly plotting with them how to help Long Fei Ye deal with the Di Clan!
She didn't even need to think to know that Tang Li would fake the cooperation and take over Cloud Realm Trade Consortium's arms trade for himself!
She was guilty!
She had let down the Di Clan and Western Qin, as well as all the sacrifices her brothers and sisters had made over the years.
Her hand unconsciously stroked her stomach. How she wished someone could tell her what she should do!
There wasn't much time left. No matter what choice she had to make, she had to make it fast. She couldn't act like the past and pretend with Tang Li to drag things out day by day.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open and Tang Li walked in.
Ning Jing quickly hid the medicine in her sleeve, all traces of helplessness and guilt vanishing from her face. Even though she was now Tang Li's prisoner, she still acted like a proud queen ordering people around. "I'm hungry! Tell the kitchens to make something for me to eat. I want to eat red bean porridge! "
Tang Li gave her a Cold look before ignoring her and sitting down on the bed.
Ning Jing was about to speak when a servant girl brought in a plate of food. Among them was the red bean porridge she'd asked for.
After living together for nearly a year, he knew what she liked. But before the servant girl could set down the food, she viciously flipped it over. "I'm not eating anymore. Get out!"
The servant girl was scared to death and left in a hurry.
Tang Li glanced at her but didn't say a word. He leaned against the pillow and closed his eyes, looking exhausted.
Ning Jing walked in front of him and shouted, "I want to eat red bean porridge, do you hear me?!"
Tang Li ignored her, but she didn't stop. She yelled four times in a row until Tang Li finally opened his eyes and said Cold, "Isn't there some on the floor?"
On the floor, there was a pile of red bean porridge mixed with broken bowls and chopsticks. It was a mess.
"I wanted you to make it!" Ning Jing was like a spoiled princess, throwing tantrums without reason.
