Søren really wasn't exaggerating.
Now, he was really curious about who Ashita Liren's biological mother was.
Everyone thought that Liren was Madam Li Zhi's biological daughter, only a few people knew that she wasn't.
Tonight, Søren had also seen Madam Li Zhi. It could be seen that she must have been a stunning beauty when she was young, just by looking at how beautiful Aslo was. But even so, she couldn't have given birth to a daughter as beautiful as Liren.
In terms of pure beauty, only Princess Jung Yeon could be on par with Liren. Of course, now there was also Ji Soo-ning.
But Liren was different from them. Jung Yeon and Ji Soo-ning had been above the mortal world for too long. Their immortal aura was too heavy, and it was difficult to arouse men's desire.
And because of Liren's Yin Dragon Meridian, her beauty was full of enchantment.
Therefore, not only was her body full of immortal aura, but it was also full of magic.
Her elegant and refined face was no less than Jung Yeon's, and it was even more gorgeous than Gui Qinshao's.
At first glance, such a woman would really make a man's heart stop. She could really drive men crazy.
Seeing that Søren was staring at her blankly, Liren sighed in her heart.
In fact, although she was also stunning a few years ago, she wasn't as breathtaking as she was now.
For some reason, following the backlash of Yin Dragon Meridian, her beauty became more and more astonishing, and now she was exuding a devilish charm.
Therefore, she wore a veil before not only to pay tribute to Yanping, but also because her beauty was really shocking.
This kind of beauty was no longer just because of her facial features, but also because of her spiritual and aesthetic realm.
…
However, Søren's dazed look was only an act. At most, he was absent-minded for half a second.
Seeing his annoying look, Liren disdainfully turned her head away and continued to look at Søren.
Søren said, "Liren, am I the first man to see you?"
Ashita Liren pretended not to hear him and asked, "How did you deal with my mother?"
"Very dirty. Do you really want to know?" Søren asked.
Li Ren shook his head and said, "Forget it, I don't want to know."
Then, she glared at Søren and said, "I'm going to wash up and change my clothes. Do you still want to stay here?"
Søren pretended to be reluctant to leave.
…
Two hours later!
Ashita Liren was wearing an embroidered robe and a golden crown.
He still didn't wear a mask on his face. Because of his androgynous attire, his whole body was filled with androgynous charm.
If he had to describe her with one sentence, he would say that she was one hundred times more charming than Dongfang Bubai.
Søren once again looked at her face with a hateful gaze and spouted nonsense, "Yesterday, in order to sneak into the Castellan's mansion, Tao Su disguised me as a woman. She was very surprised because I was even prettier than her in women's clothing. "
"Pervert …" Li Ren said coldly.
Søren said, "But today, when I saw you dressed as a man, you completely defeated me. You are really charming. You'd better wear a mask in the future. I'm afraid those men will have a stroke when they see you. "
Li Ren turned a deaf ear to Søren's praise.
This embroidered robe and golden crown were the robe of the Castellan of Rouran, which was given by the king. Today was the first time she wore it.
"Does it fit?" Søren said, "I ordered it, because only I have a general understanding of your figure. But some parts are still a little small. Is it tight?"
Søren asked while looking at Li Ren's chest.
Although it was a androgynous embroidered robe, her chest was still towering, which was thrilling.
After all, Li Ren had alien blood. The size of her chest might be even bigger than Nair's, which was extremely magnificent.
Li Ren took a deep breath and pretended not to hear Søren's teasing. She clenched her fists and endured it.
Because she really couldn't help but beat Søren until he was disabled.
She felt that if Søren provoked her like this again, one day she wouldn't be able to help but attack him.
"Your hair is a little messy at the back. Do you want me to comb it for you?" Søren asked.
Ashita Liren suddenly turned around and stared at Søren.
Søren was suddenly scared by her gaze.
"What did you just say?" Li Ren asked.
"Your, your hair is a little messy," Søren said.
Li Ren said, "You just said that you dressed as a woman and followed Tao Su into the Castellan's Mansion to see my mother last night?"
"Goodbye." Sauron made a prompt decision and immediately turned to leave, escaping without a trace.
But it was too late.
Ashita Liren easily restrained Søren and didn't let him move at all.
Li Ren said, "I'm going to the Castellan's Mansion in a while. Dress up as a female warrior and go with me."
"Please … don't," Søren begged.
"You must," Ashita Liren said, "If you hadn't suggested it, I wouldn't have thought of such a good idea."
… …
An hour later.
A cavalry captain accompanied Nishi Minke into Ashita Liren's Mansion and announced the order of the matriarch, Madam Li Zhi, to have Ashita Liren enter the Castellan's Mansion to be interrogated.
Ah Shizhuo was really impatient. Before waiting for Zhi Li's people to enter Rouran City, he couldn't wait to make things difficult for Li Ren and kick her out.
Because Ashita Liren was now the legitimate Castellan of Rouran City, Ah Shizhuo didn't have the authority to summon her for interrogation. Only the matriarch, Madam Li Zhi, had this authority.
If Rouran City was a country, Madam Li Zhi's status was equivalent to the Empress Dowager.
Legally speaking, only the Empress Dowager had the authority to order the Emperor around.
Seeing Ashita Liren wearing the Castellan's robe and a golden crown, Nishi Minke couldn't help but be stunned. Then, he lowered his head.
Even though Li Ren was wearing a mask again, he still couldn't resist Li Ren's overwhelming charm.
Moreover, Li Ren was wearing a mask, so he didn't have to worry about people saying that she was hiding her face and impersonating someone else.
Because of her ocean-like eyes, her ice-cold aura, her alluring fragrance, and her enchanting temperament, all of these explained her uniqueness.
Behind her, there was a female warrior dressed in tight clothes, holding Li Ren's sword.
Without a doubt, this tragic female warrior was Søren. He was too tall when disguised as a woman, but there were many female warriors of different races around Li Ren, and there were a few who were over 1.8 meters tall.
As for Søren's face, he didn't have to worry about being recognized.
Because she was currently disguised as a female warrior of the Wild Mountain Tribe. Her face was covered in all kinds of tattoos, and her face was completely indistinguishable.
"Mother wants me to be interrogated? About what? "Li Ren asked coldly.
Min Ke bowed and said, "I don't know. You'll know when you get there."
As the highest civil official in Rouran City, although Min Ke also felt that it was inappropriate for a woman to inherit the position of city lord, he didn't really oppose it.
Because it was obvious that Li Ren was temporarily taking over the position of Rouran City's city lord in place of her son, Yuanba. During this period, most of the political affairs would definitely be handed over to Min Ke, and he would still be put in an important position.
If Ashinizhuo became the person with the highest authority in Rouran City, Min Ke would instead be suppressed.
However, he had very little say in this matter. Moreover, these few days, Ashita Liren had been in a completely passive position, and Min Ke didn't want to stand on the losing side, so he was very distant from Li Ren.
There were many people who thought the same way.
"Then let's go," Li Ren said.
Ashita Liren left Ashita Liren's residence with the female warrior holding the sword, Søren, and headed for the city lord's residence.
As soon as she walked out of Li Ren's residence, she was surrounded by hundreds of cavalrymen. It was as if they were escorting a criminal.
It seemed that Ashita Liren's disregard for Ashinizhuo these few days had made them even more arrogant and rude, thinking that Ashita Liren was weak and easy to bully.
… …
Inside the city lord's residence's meeting hall.
Or rather, the meeting hall, because it was four to five times larger than the Tianshui City Lord's meeting hall. Moreover, the layout was more like the main hall of the Raging Wave Kingdom's palace.
It was clear how ambitious Ashinizhuo was at that time. Becoming a vassal of the Raging Wave Kingdom was only temporary, and in the future, he might even establish a country and call himself a king.
Unexpectedly, he became obsessed with longevity, and as a result, threw all his political ambitions to the back of his mind.
And all of this was the result of the fake Zuoqiu (Yanping)'s instigation, which showed how impressive Yanping was. As a spirit graduate from the Dragon Temple, he was very good at bewitching people.
At this time, the meeting hall was full of people.
High-ranking civil officials, high-ranking warrior lords, high-ranking generals above chiliarchs, and important members of the Ashinizhuo family were all present.
There were more than four hundred people, and the hall was actually able to accommodate them.
As the mistress of Rouran City, Ashinizhuo's wife, Madam Li Zhi, no longer hid behind the curtains. Instead, she sat on the highest throne, high and mighty.
There was another chair under her seat, and Ashinizhuo sat on it.
Seeing Ashita Liren enter, Ashinizhuo smiled proudly and said with a cold gaze, "Liren, why do you still wear this mask on your face? Are you trying to hide your expression?"
Ashita Liren glanced at him coldly, but did not say anything.
Søren glanced at Ashinizhuo. This person was still too crude. He should not have been so impatient to launch an attack. He should have waited for Zhi Li's forces to enter Rouran City and then oust Ashita Liren.
However, although he was vicious and merciless, he was not very scheming.
Madam Li Zhi's eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that she had not slept the whole night. Moreover, she did not dare to look at Ashinizhuo.
Seeing this scene, Søren heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that Madam Li Zhi had not changed her mind.
Ashinizhuo got up and walked a few steps down the stairs. He said to the hundreds of civil and military officials present, "This time, I have summoned everyone here on the orders of Mistress Li Zhi to question Castellan Ashita Liren."
This was the first time Ashinizhuo addressed Liren as Castellan. Because he was about to be abolished, it did not matter anymore.
According to Ashinizhuo's plan, it was a very simple matter to kick Liren off the stage. He only needed to ask Mistress Li Zhi a few questions.
First, was there a person called Yan Ziyu in Ashita Liren's residence all the time? Did the two of them often have deep conversations at night?
The second question was, was this Yan Ziyu impersonated by Sauron?
Third, was Aslo's death related to Søren? Did Asimo's accident have something to do with Sauron?
Without a doubt, the answer to these three questions was yes.
Then, Mistress Li Zhi immediately pinned the accusation that the two had an affair on Ashita Liren.
Following that, she accused Ashita Liren of colluding with outsiders to kill her brother Aslo and framing her father Asmo.
If these two crimes were confirmed, Ashita Liren would immediately be stripped of her Castellan position. She might even be imprisoned. If it was not for her peerless martial arts, her life would be in danger.
Although this plan was crude, it was definitely effective.
Because, because Ashita Liren did not have any trusted aides, all the civil and military officials were watching from the sidelines.
As long as they obtained Mistress Li Zhi's support, Ashita Liren's Castellan position could be stripped off with a groundless accusation.
Ah Shizhuo's revolt was not a big deal. The key was Matriarch Li Zhi. With the unstable position of the city lord, she was the highest authority in Rouran City.
Therefore, Søren made a prompt decision to arrest Mistress Li Zhi.
… …
Ah Shizhuo came to the bottom of the stairs and bowed to Mistress Li Zhi: "Mistress, I heard that you have three questions for Castellan Ashita Liren?"
"Yes," Mistress Li Zhi replied.
Ah Shizhuo asked: "Castellan Ashita Liren, do you accept my questioning?"
"I accept," Liren replied coldly.
Instantly, everyone looked at Ashina Liren sympathetically.
This sentence basically meant that Liren had become a fish on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered. Her Castellan position was already a foregone conclusion.
Mistress Li Zhi took out a piece of parchment and slowly said: "I have three questions for Ashita Liren."
"Yes, Mother," Ashita Liren replied.
"First question, is it true that Ah Shizhuo poisoned his elder brother Ashine 13 years ago in order to fight for the position of Rouran Cavalry Commander?
"Second question, was Demon Warrior Zuoqiu recommended by Ah Shizhuo before he came to Lord Ashino's side? Then, he spread lies to mislead the public, causing Lord Ashino to ignore politics until he abandoned the mortal world and wandered the world?
"Third question, eight years ago, in order to kill Rouran City's infantry commander, Meng Fang, Ah Shizhuo conspired with the Yelan Principality to kill Meng Fang and his 20,000 soldiers, causing Rouran City to lose 200 miles of land."
Mistress Li Zhi had rehearsed this several times and read out all three questions in one breath.
Last night, Søren forced her to write down Ah Shizhuo's top secret crimes. There were more than ten of them, and she finally chose the three most important ones.
When she read out the first one, Ah Shizhuo was completely stunned.
The hundreds of civil and military officials present were also completely stunned.
Weren't they questioning Castellan Ashita Liren? Weren't they going to kick her out of office? Why were they making things difficult for Ah Shizhuo now?
When Mistress Li Zhi read out the second one, Ah Shizhuo already sensed danger and was about to attack.
However, he found that he could not make a sound, and he could not even move.
That was because Ashita Liren was standing beside him, her jade-like finger on his back. She said coldly, "If you have anything to say, wait until Mother is done with her questioning."
After Mistress Li Zhi finished the three questions, she said to Ashita Liren, "We have witnesses and material evidence for these three crimes. Ashita Liren, as the castellan, what should you do about your negligence? "
Ashita Liren said, "Please calm down, Mother. I will deal with him right away!"
Then, she said coldly, "Ah Shizhuo has committed these three crimes, which are bordering on treason. His crimes are unforgivable, and he will be executed immediately. Sword!"
She stretched out her jade-like hand.
Søren stepped forward and placed the Dragon Gold Sword in her hand.
This bastard, he took the opportunity to pinch Li Zhi's hand. It was cold, soft, and enchanting.
Li Zhi's body trembled. This was the first time a man had touched her skin since she was awake.
She gritted her teeth and wanted nothing more than to cut off Søren's head with the sword. However, at this critical moment, she could not even glare at Søren.
Pulling out the Dragon Gold Sword, Ashita Liren looked at Ah Shizhuo and asked, "What else do you have to say?"
Ah Shizhuo was horrified and said with a trembling voice, "Li Zhi, don't kill me!"
Swoosh … As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhi's sword slashed down.
Ah Shizhuo's terrified head was chopped off. The cut on his neck was as smooth as a mirror and solidified into ice. Not even blood flowed out.
After a long while, blood suddenly broke through the ice and gushed out like a fountain.
