Hai Lingqing's attack does not pose much of a threat. Her strength is only in the middle stage of Xiantian, which is about the same level as Xu Shi'an. Her cultivation skills are still average. Any master in Yangxin Palace can easily subdue her.
The eldest princess seemed to be in a daze and did not make any movement.
Chu Qianqiu frowned slightly and directly released his mental power, knocking down this somewhat crazy woman and taking away the sword in her hand.
The servant of Yu seemed to be waking up from a dream, and quickly stopped her, preparing to arrest her. Unexpectedly, Hai Lingqing's whole body burst out with true energy, and she looked like she was about to die together.
"Let me go, Manager Yu, are you going to betray His Majesty too?"
The servant of Yu felt his scalp numb and regretted that he should not have done it.
Seeing that she was still trying to struggle, Xiao Yi on the hospital bed seemed to have woken up from a dream and hurriedly shouted:
"Ling Qing, what are you doing, step back."
"Ahem, Chu Aiqing, she is just a little confused, and she does not intend to assassinate her sister."
Xiao Yikugao's face was full of worry, fearing that Chu Qianqiu would take advantage of this opportunity.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I have never been a person who likes to worry about trivial matters."
"She is just a poor person."
Chu Qianqiu replied in a low voice, not intending to pursue the matter further.
A smile appeared on Xiao Yi's face.
"I saw you right, Chu Aiqing, you are indeed a good person."
Your Majesty, I am really not a good person.
Xiao Yi's comment made Chu Qianqiu feel a little guilty in his already small conscience.
This matter can be big or small. Chu Qianqiu can definitely take advantage of this opportunity to reorganize the Hai family and use it for his own purposes.
But he was about to own a country, so why should he be angry with a loyal maid?
What's more, Chu Qianqiu has a way.
"Ling Qing, come here."
"Your Majesty..." Hai Lingqing burst into tears when she saw Xiao Yi in this state.
"I chose this myself, why are you crying?"
"Your Majesty, as long as you survive for one generation, you will be able to return to normal."
"Why is this so?"
Hai Lingqing knew from very early on that the Thirteenth Prince was not only the Thirteenth Prince, but also the monster inside him.
But she doesn't care, Your Majesty is Your Majesty.
One day he will also gain youth and vitality, for which she is willing to sacrifice everything.
"Ling Qing, I am very happy. I have never been so happy since I was born."
"You should also be happy for me. I can finally live for myself, ahem."
"I still have some power, and I will pardon your innocence just now." Xiao Yi coughed and wanted to reach out to touch his maid, but found that his body was overwhelmed, and Hai Lingqing took the initiative to reach over.
Hold Xiao Yi's hand tightly.
"From today on, you are free."
"Your Majesty, no."
"I never came to accompany you because of my family."
Just when the two of them had the urge to part ways, Chu Qianqiu coughed a little sadly:
"Ahem, Your Majesty, you still have a long time to live."
"Master Hai, you don't have to treat this as a life-or-death farewell."
As soon as these words came out, even the eldest princess, who had looked sad just now, showed a look of surprise.
"Husband, is it true?"
"Your Majesty is just suffering from serious physical damage and his life span has been shortened. If there is a way to replenish his life span, he can reverse his life and death."
"But Your Majesty, I have a condition."
Chu Qianqiu has no intention of watching the other person die. For the sake of his wife, he will save him if he can.
"Master Chu, please give me your orders. As long as Ling Qing can do it, I will die without mercy."
Hai Lingqing immediately knelt down and prayed to Chu Qianqiu.
"Master Hai, please get up." Chu Qianqiu released his mental power, helped her up, and said directly:
"I have a bottle of [dark golden] Xuanwu blood here, which may be able to help your majesty extend your life."
"But this time, the Qingjun side has been completed. Your Majesty, please pretend to be dead of illness and leave the palace."
"How is that possible?" Before Hai Lingqing finished speaking, Xiao Yi agreed with a smile.
"no problem."
"I originally wanted to travel around, but now I am lucky to be alive."
The eldest princess remained silent. She understood that she was extremely lucky to be able to rescue Brother Yi this time, but it was not in everyone's interest to rescue Xiao Yi.
After the coup was completed, neither Xu Guogong nor Master Meng hoped that Xiao Yi could survive, otherwise they would be suspected of being a traitor.
Therefore, it was not suitable for her to speak and she remained silent.
Death was necessary, so Chu Qianqiu could only let him fake his death and escape, which could be described as the most benevolent and righteous act.
"The position of the Hai family as an imperial merchant will not change."
"Master Hai, Your Majesty will ask you to take care of me."
"My slave will do it." Hai Lingqing never thought that her dream would be realized in this way, and she felt as if happiness came too suddenly.
"Also, you have to understand who the Hai family should be loyal to." What Chu Qianqiu wants is the Hai family's financial resources and the network they have accumulated over hundreds of years of operation.
A woman with weaknesses is always easier to control than an old man from the Hai family.
It can also allow the eldest princess to hand over power more smoothly.
Although the Hai family's financial system is decayed, it can still be used. The resources that Chu Qianqiu will farm in the future can be used more efficiently.
Hai Lingqing did not hesitate at all and performed the supreme etiquette of prostrating herself to the eldest princess.
"The Hai family swears loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen to the death."
"Anyone who is not loyal to Your Majesty will be your enemy."
"Take good care of Brother Yi, otherwise I won't let you go."
The eldest princess hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to let go and make a complete break with the past. The servant of Yu finally found an opportunity and quickly knelt down and shouted:
"See Her Majesty the Queen."
Amid the loud shouts, a smile appeared on Chu Qianqiu's lips.
He began to instill Xuanwu blood into Xiao Yi to extend his life.
As expected, the blood of the mythical beast was extremely effective. Although it lowered the temperature of the palace by more than ten degrees, Xiao Yi's appearance slowly returned to that of a young man.
"Brother-in-law, my sister is leaving it to you."
Before Chu Qianqiu could speak, Xiao Yi smiled and blessed the two of them, and Hai Lingqing escorted the young emperor away from the place where he had lived for seven years.
"Aren't you going to say something?" Chu Qianqiu looked at the eldest princess who was a little dazed, and couldn't help but pinch her face, but saw the eldest princess shake her head firmly.
"Since I have chosen you, I can no longer miss you too much, husband."
The eldest princess stared at Chu Qianqiu, clasped her hands together, and saluted as if facing a Buddha statue.
"It's like a dream."
"Even in my dreams, I never imagined such a scene."
"My husband must be the god of this palace."
The eldest princess's eyes showed gratitude, admiration, and a bit of admiration, which made Chu Qianqiu feel a little embarrassed.
