Ye Zhen opened her eyes and heard a knock on the door. She got up and opened the door. It was Song Jiong who had brought her dinner.
"Niang niang, you haven't eaten anything good for two days. Fortunately, there are still a lot of things in the kitchen. I've made something for you to eat." Song Jiong said with a smile, holding the tray in his hand in front of Ye Zhen.
He cooked a bowl of chicken soup, a plate of shredded chicken and tremella, a plate of seasonal vegetables, and a bowl of rice porridge for Ye Zhen. They looked, smelled, and looked appetizing.
"Did you make all this?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise.
Song Jiong nodded with a smile. "It's barely edible. Niang niang, please don't mind."
It didn't look like it was forced at all.
Shen Yi came over from the side and took the tray from Song Jiong's hand. "Thank you."
Ye Zhen knew that Shen Yi was still guarding against Song Jiong. She smiled faintly and whispered to Song Jiong, "If there is news of your Pavilion Master, please tell me."
"Okay." Song Jiong glared at Shen Yi, magnanimously not lowering himself to his level.
"Thank you." Ye Zhen said gratefully. Only when she knew that Murong Ke was safe and sound could she really rest assured. Otherwise, even if she escaped from the priest hall, she would still feel uncomfortable.
Song Jiong whispered, "Niang niang, do you really care about our Pavilion Master?"
Ye Zhen said lightly, "He risked everything to save me. Naturally, I don't want anything to happen to him."
"I see." Song Jiong smiled. "Niang niang, rest early. We have to be on our way before dawn tomorrow."
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded gently.
Song Jiong smiled and left.
Shen Yi tested the food on the tray for poison. After confirming that it was edible, he nodded to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen smiled. "Song Jiong won't harm me."
"He is one of the top killers of Qian Luocha. This subordinate has to be on guard against him." Shen Yi said in a low voice.
"Song Jiong is a killer?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise. She really couldn't see at all that he looked like a killer.
Shen Yi said, "Yes, Niang niang already knows the identity of Sixth Wangye!"
"Did the emperor already know the relationship between the Sixth Wangye and Qian Luocha? Did he imprison Qian Xue because of the Sixth Wangye?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"The emperor did not know the identity of the Sixth Wangye at that time, but he had some doubts. He released Qianxue to confirm the truth." Shen Yi glanced at Ye Zhen. "Now the answer is obvious. The emperor should know soon."
Ye Zhen said, "How many troops did the emperor bring in Xia Province?"
"There are only 50,000 troops and horses in Xia Province, but reinforcements will arrive soon. The Emperor has been fighting for many years and has always been invincible. Your Highness, you don't have to worry too much." Shen Yi comforted Ye Zhen, although he was also very worried about the situation in Xia Province.
"Invincibility also depends on the difference in military strength." The difference between fifty thousand and two hundred thousand was too big. "Do you have a way to send a letter to the emperor?"
Shen Yi said in a low voice, "We still have some hidden guards hiding in the shadows. If Your Highness wishes to send a letter to His Majesty, this subordinate can have someone personally deliver it."
"I'll write a letter later. You send it to the emperor." Ye Zhen said.
"Yes, Your Highness." Shen Yi responded.
Ye Zhen had not eaten a hot meal for two days. Tonight, her appetite was very good. She found a pen and ink in the room and wrote a letter to Mo Rongzhan. In addition to informing him that she was rescued, she also told him to protect himself and that she would wait for him in Qingzhou.
At night, Ye Zhen lay on the bed and re-entered the space. She came to the Phoenix again. "Little bird, do you have any divine power besides this space?"
The phoenix only glanced at her lazily, not saying a single word.
Ye Zhen did not give up and continued to ask, "Where did you come from? Does it have anything to do with the jade pendant?"
"Little bird, the master is asking you a question."
"Is there any other use for these spiritual springs and spiritual fields?"
"Hey, little bird, say something."
The Phoenix was planning to sleep and cultivate, but Ye Zhen's voice made the flames on its body tremble. It opened its eyes and stared at Ye Zhen. "This great god is not called little bird, I am called Fire Phoenix!"
"Okay, little Phoenix." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile.
"I was originally sealed in the jade pendant. I don't know how I attached myself to you and was reborn. I don't remember anything else. Don't ask me again." The Phoenix cried angrily. Its cultivation had not been refined yet, so how could it know too much?
Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, "Can you change the situation?"
The Phoenix looked at Ye Zhen contemptuously. "Do you want me to withdraw the 200,000 troops from Anhe City?"
"You can do it!" Ye Zhen's eyes lit up.
"In your dreams!" The Phoenix cried angrily. "I don't even have a body. How can I go out and change the situation? It's already very good for you to have spiritual springs and spiritual fields."
Ye Zhen sighed in disappointment. "It turns out that the Divine Bird is not omnipotent."
The Phoenix felt that it was about to spit fire. "Get lost!"
"Hey! Hey!" Ye Zhen wanted to ask a few more questions, but her eyes suddenly darkened and she could not see anything.
Huang Fuchen inquired about the direction of the dungeon and went out when it was dark. He had only taken a few steps out of the courtyard when he was stopped.
"Mr. Huang Fuchen, where are you going?" A guard in black asked coldly.
"Just walking around." Huang Fuchen said indifferently, "Is there no other place I can go except in the courtyard now?"
The guard said, "We are afraid that there are still Qian Luosha's killers in the priest hall. It would be bad if they hurt you."
"You have searched the entire place thoroughly. If there is still danger, doesn't it show that you are useless?" Huang Fuchen asked sarcastically.
"Mr. Huang Fuchen …" The guard frowned and looked at him.
"If you want to restrict me to stay in the courtyard, let Qi Ruoshui come and talk to me." Huang Fuchen said coldly.
Wu Ming came in front of him and motioned for the guard to retreat. "Mr. Huang Fuchen, the Witch King said that you can do whatever you want in the priest hall. Where are you going?"
"The dungeon." Huang Fuchen did not hide the place he wanted to go.
"I advise you not to go, lest you get scared." Wu Ming said.
Huang Fuchen looked at him slightly. "What did you do to Murong Ke?"
"He is different from Mr. Huang Fuchen, so his treatment is naturally different." Wu Ming said.
"What if I insist on going to the dungeon?" Huang Fuchen was shocked. He did not know what kind of torture Murong Ke would suffer in the dungeon.
Wu Ming moved aside. "I will not stop Mr. Huang Fuchen."
Huang Fuchen walked over slowly. He slowed down his pace. "There are guards everywhere in the priest hall. It seems that the King of Xiliang is also obedient to Qi Ruoshui."
"If Mr. Huang Fuchen wants to know something, it is better to ask the Witch King yourself." Wu Ming said.
"Your Witch King probably does not know one thing …" Huang Fuchen said lightly, "Most of the people in Qian Luosha are descendants of Qian Yu House. They are loyal to Murong Ke for a reason."
