The reason why Shangguan Lie, a strong man of the generation, was deposed and turned into what he is now is because of Qiu Yu. Based on this, he hated him deeply and wanted to get rid of him with the help of Prince Rui.?
"Back to your lord, if Qiu Yu had not joined forces with the Dark Dynasty, not only the great treasure, but also the entire Marig Island would have been under the control of the Qing Le Gang." Shangguan Lie said with ulterior motives.
Qi Rong didn't say anything. To be honest, she didn't want to let the fire burn to Qiu Yu. As for why, she couldn't explain it herself.
Nian Dayao echoed: "Yes, Mr. Shangguan is right. If it weren't for Qiu Yu, we wouldn't have suffered heavy losses."
Rui Yi became more and more angry, his teeth clenched, and he said: "This is Qiu Yu again. If I don't take his head, I swear that I will not be a human being."
Shangguan Lie hurriedly said: "Qirong Gege is very kind to me. In addition, I have always admired the prince and am willing to help deal with that bastard Qiu Yu. Although I have become a useless person now, I can still come up with ideas."
Ruiyi nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Shangguan. Then you can rest and recuperate at my place."
"Okay, then I won't bother you."
The hatred accumulated like this, and Ruiyi wanted to kill Qiuyu immediately to relieve the hatred in his heart. He thought that he had been dormant for decades and was ready to compete in the Central Plains, but he never expected to encounter this stumbling block.
Not long after, Qi Rong returned to her boudoir. Although she was in her prime, she was born in such a strange family, so that she lived a completely different life from her peers from childhood to adulthood.
The room was like an ancient Princess's boudoir, filled with old-fashioned furniture. There were pens, inks, paper and inkstones on the rosewood desk. There was a white parrot on the shelf hanging next to it. When he saw her, he screamed: "Good luck to Princess, Princess."
Hail…”
This is Qi Rong's pet, nicknamed Bai Feng. She has had it for many years. Under her careful training, she can talk a lot, like a pistachio.
The original bad mood dissipated a lot. Qi Rong teased the parrot and said, "Bai Feng, did you miss me?"
The parrot screamed: "Missing is a river, you are on that side, and I am on this side."
Qi Rong burst into laughter, and her depressed mood was wiped away by the slap. After talking to Bai Feng for a while, she lay on the bed with her clothes on and fell asleep. She felt very tired from running around for several days.
I slept until sunset, when the little maid Ruolan walked into the room and called softly, "Gege, wake up..."
Qi Rong then opened her eyes, stretched and asked, "What's the matter?"
Ruolan smiled and said, "Of course it's a good thing. Your fiancé and future father-in-law are here, and the prince asked you to come over to meet the guests."
When she mentioned her fiancé, Qi Rong was stunned. Although she had met the man several times and followed her grandfather's instructions to get engaged to him, he could never get into her heart, just like a stranger.
"Why are they here?" Qi Rong asked with a frown.
Ruolan smiled and said: "My consort must have missed you. You must be very happy, Gege."
This girl is about the same age as Qi Rong. She is cute and well-behaved. She has been with Ge Ge since she was very young. The two of them have a good relationship and make some jokes from time to time.
Qi Rong rolled her eyes at the little girl, "What's so happy about it? It's just like that." Her words were full of helplessness, because she was born in this family and couldn't make her own decisions about marriage. No matter whether she liked it or felt it, she would not be able to make the decision on her own in the future.
They both have to marry each other according to grandpa's will, which makes me feel sad when I think about it.
"Okay, Prince Consort, they are all waiting. Princess, please dress up quickly and I will help you comb your hair."
Qi Rong had no such intention at all. She shook her head and said, "No, I'll just go there."
The old prince Ruiyi sat at the main seat in the hall, accompanied by Shangguan Lie. The guests were two men in black cloaks, an old man and a young man. The old man was in his sixties, and his body was like a bamboo pole
The body looks like a man with only a few kilograms of flesh, and the head is more like a skull. It is clearly one of the Five Ancestors, Qiao Hong. It turns out that he is the in-law of Prince Rui.
The young man was twenty-six or seventeen years old, very tall and thin, with a thin face like a razor blade, and narrow eyes slightly upward. His appearance could not be said to be handsome, nor ugly, but he looked a little sinister. He was Qiao Hong.
Son, Qi Rong’s fiancé Qiao Xu.
Shangguan Lie and Qiao Hong are both the fifth ancestors, but they rarely meet in private. They did not expect to meet here, and the former has become a disabled person. Even though Qiao Hong has always been indifferent, his face was full of surprise, and he asked hurriedly: "Brother Shangguan, what are you doing?"
What's going on?"
"I went crazy in my practice, and now I have become a useless person." Shangguan Lie said with a bitter smile. He did not tell the truth. If people in the world knew that he was disabled by that kid Qiu Yu, how could he have any face in the world?
No need to see anyone anymore.
Qiao Hong knew that what the other party told was a lie, so since he didn't want to say it clearly, he stopped asking further questions.
Shangguan Lie directly changed the topic and said: "I didn't expect that the old prince's in-laws are Brother Qiao. Now that you have joined forces, your dominance will be just around the corner."
Qiao Hong said: "Thanks to Prince Rui for not disapproving of it, my dog has become a master."
It can be said that in order to achieve the great cause of restoration, Prince Rui took great pains to win over many powerful heroes so that they can be used for his own use in the future. He even adopted the method of marriage for the powerful ones. Among them, the one he valued the most was Ghost Hand Qiao Hong, and he regarded himself as the most powerful.
His beloved granddaughter Qirong was betrothed to him.
Prince Rui smiled and said, "My in-laws are too modest. You, the Qiao family, have many heroes. Xu'er is also a leader of the younger generation. Qirong is lucky to have such a husband."
There is no doubt that Qi Rong has outstanding beauty and noble blood. If she had been in the past, she would have been a royal princess. Qiao Xu was extremely satisfied to be engaged to this girl. He glanced at the door from time to time, hoping that his fiancée would arrive soon.
There were footsteps outside, and it was Qi Rong who was walking over. Seeing hundreds of men in red cloaks covering their heads and faces standing in the yard outside, like sculptures, she felt uncomfortable and eerie because she knew
These are dead soldiers trained by the Qiao family, and they are very different from ordinary people. In other words, they are dead people who are alive.
After Qiao Hong used special methods to rectify these dead soldiers, they all had very good martial arts and extremely strong fighting power, and they became basically emotionless, as if they were walking zombies who were not afraid of pain or death. They were like the most ferocious jackals. They only listened to the Qiao family's father and son.
If they were attacked, they would attack anyone at the first command, and they were so brutal that they were almost unhuman. So Qi Rong felt numb, so she tried to stay away from those guys, and then walked into the hall.
