Tang Yi didn't know if Ximen Qingkong, who was like a block of wood, saw everyone's eyes, or if he could understand them, but she saw them and understood them.
Whether willing or not, Tang Yi knew that Ximen Qingkong had really become the biggest joke today.
Perhaps it wasn't just a joke, but also a lot of sympathy and pity. She herself was one of them.
She didn't know if Ximen Qingkong, the number one expert on the Alchemy List, needed such sympathy and pity.
But she really didn't think it was necessary for Ximen Qingkong to appear here. Not only should he not appear here, the best way was to leave Xuan Wei's side completely and never appear by Xuan Wei's side again.
If that was the case, perhaps everyone would think that this man's efforts were in vain and he didn't get the result he wanted.
But if he stayed by Xuan Wei's side, then he would really become a joke. Everyone who saw him would think that he was a joke. His loneliness wouldn't make people sympathize with him, it would only make him a joke.
She couldn't imagine how Ximen Qingkong would face everyone who saw him day and night if he continued to stay by Xuan Wei's side …
On the night of the wedding night, it was quiet in the bridal room. The newlyweds sat side by side on the bed. The man was expressionless, and the woman behind the beaded curtain was also indifferent.
Outside the bridal room, Ximen Qingkong was still guarding outside.
Not far away, Tang Yi watched this scene quietly.
In the bridal room, Xuan Wei raised her hand and took off the phoenix coronet.
Hao Cheng slowly turned to look at her, and she also turned to look at him.
It was the first time he saw Xuan Wei's real face, and he was stunned for a moment. He had heard that Xuan Wei was beautiful, but this was still beyond his expectations.
Beautiful! She was indeed beautiful, very beautiful. She didn't look as old as the rumors said. She still looked very young, but her temperament was very mature. It wasn't the temperament of a young girl. She took good care of herself!
Xuan Wei walked to the table and put down the phoenix coronet. She turned to the man sitting on the bed and said, "There are many things that you have to do. Don't worry, I will make it up to you in the future. "
"Make it up to me? How? Make it up to me with wealth? I know what you guys are up to. I have no choice, and I don't dare to resist. I can only listen to your arrangements. " Hao Cheng raised his hand and patted the seat next to him, gesturing for her to sit down. "You're not bad looking. You have a unique charm and won't spoil my appetite. You're familiar with the matters between a man and a woman, and I'm no stranger either. We're all familiar with it, so stop dawdling and come to the bridal chamber. "
Xuan Wei had no intention of moving. "The battle between Jin and Wei cannot be delayed for even a moment. I still have many things to deal with. You should rest early." She turned and left.
The door opened and Xuan Wei came out in a new outfit. She nodded at Ximen Qingkong and said, "Let's go!"
Ximen Qingkong left with her. Tang Yi, who was not far away, witnessed everything.
Inside the room, Hao Cheng sat on the couch with his eyes closed. He sat there quietly for the whole night.
From that night onwards, Xuan Wei never entered his room again. She stayed in another courtyard in the palace.
…
In the cottage, Guan Fangyi hurried to Yuan Gang's courtyard. She went straight into the living room and closed the door. She turned and asked, "News from Daoye again?"
Yuan Gang nodded and showed the letter to her. Even though she couldn't understand it, he just wanted her to verify it.
Guan Fangyi really couldn't understand it. She only checked the handwriting and looked up from the paper. She asked, "What orders does Daoye have?"
Yuan Gang said, "First, it's about the changes in the situation caused by the battle between Jin and Wei. The main point is the Prince's response strategy. We have to make a brief report and send it to Daoye."
Guan Fangyi nodded. "What else?"
Yuan Gang said, "Shao Pingbo …"
"Shao Pingbo?" Guan Fangyi interrupted in surprise. "Daoye is still thinking about him when he's in the Saint State? He's really in the mood. "
Yuan Gang said, "Daoye has confirmed that Shao Pingbo was the mastermind behind the incident in Wei."
"Ah? It's him! " Guan Fangyi was shocked. The incident this time had really messed up Wei. Shao Pingbo had been hiding for so long without making a move. Once there was a movement, he made such a big move. It was indeed shocking. "No wonder Daoye doesn't want to let him go. This time, he is going to destroy many families. He is indeed a scourge. Is it possible that Daoye is still thinking about him because he wants to get rid of him? "
Yuan Gang said, "That's right. This person will be a great scourge if left alive. Daoye wants us to take the opportunity to get rid of him."
Guan Fangyi muttered, "It's good to get rid of him, but this guy is very hard to deal with. Even Daoye couldn't get rid of him personally. After he hid in Jin, he received the protection of Jin. Even Daoye couldn't do anything to him when he was around. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us."
Yuan Gang said, "Daoye naturally has his own considerations. He won't ask us to do things that we can't do. The Taoist Master judged that Shao Pingbo must not be willing to accept failure since he had been lying low for so long. There was a high possibility that he would personally command the rebellion. He would definitely not end the rebellion as soon as he started it. There must be a follow-up. It was very likely that he had already left the Jin Nation. Once he leaves Jin, he will either be in the capital city of Wei or the capital city of Qi. Shao Pingbo might be there wherever there is trouble. "
"If Shao Pingbo has left Jin, now is the best time to make a move."
Guan Fangyi hesitated, "Even if Daoye's judgment is accurate, Shao Pingbo will be responsible for the rebellion. He will hide his tracks well. It won't be easy for us to dig him out with our forces. Jin will also send a considerable force to protect him. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to make a move."
Yuan Gang said, "Daoye knows about this. We don't have to do it ourselves. The battle between Jin and Wei involves Qi, Wei, and Jin …"
Guan Fangyi suddenly realized something and interrupted, "That's right! Wei and Qi will not let him go if they know about it. It's much safer for them to use their forces to deal with him. "
Yuan Gang nodded, "I will contact Xuan Wei and ask her to be in charge of Wei. You are familiar with the capital city of Qi. Contact Vast Cloud Map and ask her to be in charge of Qi. Remember, this matter must be kept secret. Try not to let anyone know that it's related to us. We can't let the people of Mount Five Liang know about it. "
"Alright!" Guan Fangyi agreed.
The two continued to discuss the details. After they were done, they quickly went their separate ways.
…
On the vast grassland, while the hundred thousand troops were resting, a messenger arrived quickly and handed a letter to General Ba Yuancheng with both hands. He then reported loudly, "General, His Majesty's urgent order! West Courtyard King Hao Yun Sheng and King Jin Hao Qi are rebelling. They are leading the rebel army to besiege the capital city. The capital city is in danger. His Majesty orders General to quickly lead the army to rescue His Majesty! "
"What?" Ba Yuancheng, who was eating roasted lamb, was so shocked that the bone in his hand fell to the ground. He stood up abruptly and snatched the letter to read.
The group of generals sitting around the fire were also shocked and stood up one after another.
After reading the letter, Ba Yuancheng stomped his feet and pounded his chest, "I knew that the West Courtyard King was in trouble. I didn't expect him to really rebel. The army will immediately move out and rush to the capital city to rescue His Majesty. Quick! "
"Wait!" A general stopped him and said in a deep voice, "General, calm down. I feel that this matter is a little strange. The capital city is surrounded by the three major sects. With the protection of the three major sects, how can the rebel army easily rebel? Could this be a trap? Would it be inappropriate to withdraw the army so suddenly? "
Ba Yuancheng frowned and quickly ordered someone to send the original copy of the secret letter over. He carefully checked the Emperor's seal and it didn't seem to be a problem.
Everyone also felt that there was no problem after reading it.
"The West Courtyard King and King Jin are rebelling at this time. I'm afraid that Jin Nation is cooperating with them."
"If the capital city is really lost and His Majesty is really in danger, I'm afraid that we will be punished with death."
"I just feel that something is strange at this time. Everyone, if we withdraw the army now and Qi Nation doesn't rush to rescue His Majesty in time, Wei Nation will be in danger. Once Wei Nation collapses, I'm afraid that Qi Nation will be in a difficult situation. "
"If Qi Nation can't even take care of itself, how can we care about Wei Nation? General, if we delay the rescue, it will be a defiance of the imperial decree! "
After the generals discussed, Ba Yuancheng stomped his feet and ordered, "Ask the Marshal for confirmation urgently! The army is to retreat. At the same time, quickly contact the capital city to confirm if there is any mistake in the news! "
Following the order, the resting army quickly moved out.
On the way out, in order to distinguish themselves from the rebel army, the generals and soldiers all wore white cloth on their heads.
…
It was peaceful inside and outside Qi Nation. In the pavilion in the courtyard, Shao Pingbo held a secret report and snorted. "Marriage alliance? The prince of Qi Nation will marry into Xuan Wei's family? Haha, in order to stabilize the people of Wei Nation, both sides are really unscrupulous. "
Shao Sandao said, "Isn't the Elixir List's number one expert, Ximen Qingkong, Xuan Wei's lover? How can Ximen Qingkong agree to such a thing? "
Shao Pingbo said, "Number one expert? I heard that he carries a sword and follows behind a widow all day long. How high can such a man be? He's just an ignorant man. Apart from fighting and killing, what else can he do? Ximen Qingkong … "
His fingers tapped on the table and his eyes narrowed. "I want to see how deep the love between this infatuated couple is. Stabilize the people's hearts? Hmph, I'll give them a big gift. I hope that the number one expert on the Pill List can keep his life! "
At this moment, someone ran up the pavilion and handed over a letter. "Young Master, someone suddenly threw a letter in from outside the door. The letter is clearly addressed to Young Master. "
It was clearly addressed to Shao Pingbo? In other words, someone knew that Shao Pingbo was hiding here?
Shao Pingbo and Shao Sansheng were shocked at the same time. Shao Sansheng immediately asked, "Who is it?"
The person replied, "As soon as the letter appeared, we immediately went out to check. There were people coming and going on the streets. We don't know who threw the letter."
Shao Sansheng immediately said to Shao Pingbo, "Young Master, we shouldn't stay here for long!"
Shao Pingbo, who was in deep thought, raised his hand and asked for the letter.
Shao Sansheng said, "Be careful, it might be a trap. Let me check it first."
Shao Pingbo didn't want to talk nonsense with him. He directly reached out and took the letter. Looking at the handwriting on the envelope, it was indeed addressed to him.
He immediately tore open the envelope, took the letter in his hand and shook it open.
After reading the letter, he slowly closed the letter and waved his hand to signal the person who came to report to leave first. Then, he said to Shao Sansheng, "Open the gate of the courtyard and welcome the distinguished guest."
Shao Sansheng tried to ask, "Who is it?"
Shao Pingbo glanced at him coldly. "If someone comes in, don't stop him. Bring him here directly."
