"Can we talk properly..." Li Danqing rolled his eyes and said helplessly.
After being surprised by the sudden appearance of Ying Xiangjun, Li Danqing quickly realized that of course there is no way in this world that can bring people back to life.
Even the original Long Tuo Yan Ya only managed to survive for decades by using the method of seizing his body.
And Mr. Ying Xiangjun was literally dead without a burial place. He was cut into several pieces by everyone. How could he survive?
So Li Danqing soon realized that the only person who could do such a thing was the Palace of Eternal Life.
He was not too surprised by Yu Qinghuan who appeared in front of him.
"Master, don't you believe in the slave family?" After hearing this, Yu Qinghuan suddenly showed a sad look on her face. She smoothed the hair on her forehead and tears filled her eyes.
Concubine Ji's eyes were red, which meant that Li Danqing was indeed feeling guilty and naturally wanted to be relieved.
But the Lord of the Yin Palace in front of him is not a good person, and Li Danqing will not be deceived by her acting skills.
"If you want to say something, say it. If you don't say something, get out!"
"But remember, don't say anything that harms my people!" Li Danqing felt a little irritable thinking about the appearance of Concubine Ji just now.
Seeing that she really couldn't deceive Li Danqing with her plan, Yu Qinghuan wisely restrained herself from crying, and pursed her lips into a smile, which could be described as charming.
She said softly: "Why don't you understand the slave family's hard work?"
"Yesterday, Prime Minister Ying took a large group of retainers out of the Ying family, but they have not returned yet. The young master's words can deceive him for a while, but they cannot deceive him forever. If the imperial court intends to investigate the whereabouts of the head of the Ying family and many retainers, then
I’m afraid some clues will still be found.”
"Although the slave's method of transfiguration is clumsy, it can help the master solve this problem to some extent."
"Leave with an excuse after two days. By then, even if the people from the court and the Ying family want to investigate, they can't find out..."
Li Danqing had indeed considered the death of Ying Xiangjun. If he directly mentioned that Ying Xiangjun died in battle, it would make people suspicious. Li Danqing never mentioned Ying Xiangjun in the speech he made over and over again with Master Ji.
The thing about Xiangjun is to try to put aside the relationship with Xiangjun Ying as much as possible.
Of course, there are risks in this approach, but it is indeed the best way Li Danqing could think of.
The worst case scenario is that you will refuse to admit your guilt when you are suspected. With the eldest princess as your guarantee, you won’t dare to investigate even if you want to come to the Three Prefectures and Nine Divisions, right?
Looking at Yu Qinghuan who looked aggrieved, Li Danqing sneered: "Don't say it so nice, I have my own way to escape. Miss Yu is like this, in the final analysis, it is to prevent the court from finding out about your Eternal Life Palace, right?"
Yu Qinghuan was not embarrassed at all when Li Danqing revealed his thoughts. Instead, he smiled coquettishly and said: "The two are not contradictory."
"The Nu family will not stay in Wuyang City for too long. Those Zhu Zijia are not easy to mess with."
"While the slave family is still there, Master, would you like to ask the slave family to do something happy with you?"
Yu Qinghuan said, swaying forward, placing a hand on Li Danqing's chest, caressing it gently, breathing like orchid into her red lips.
Li Danqing trembled when he heard this. At that time, he stared at Yu Qinghuan and said in a deep voice: "Speaking of which, there is really one thing..."
…
"Do you think Li Danqing lied?" In the Mingzhao Palace, Ji Qi looked at the memorial in front of him that recorded the whole story, reached out and knocked on the desk, and asked softly.
Lin Bai, who was waiting beside him, heard this and whispered: "This matter was submitted by the eldest princess, the head of the Ying family and the prince. You may not believe others, but the eldest princess will never lie to your majesty."
"Do you think the concubine is trustworthy?" Ji Qi raised his eyebrows and asked with unclear meaning.
Lin Bai was shocked and hurriedly said: "The eldest princess is your Majesty's sister, how can you deceive your Majesty?"
Ji Qi glanced sideways at Lin Bai, noncommittal.
At this moment, his face suddenly turned pale and he coughed violently.
Upon seeing this, Lin Bai hurriedly stepped forward to support Ji Qi and said: "Your Majesty still needs to take care of the dragon body..."
As he said this, he thought of something and hurriedly handed over the jade box presented by Master Ji and then said: "Your Majesty, this medicine..."
Ji Qi knew what he meant. He took the jade box, looked at it with a wry smile, and murmured: "I never thought that in the end, I would still have to rely on this thing to survive."
"But... three years should be enough..."
Lin Bai's eyes suddenly turned red after hearing these words, and he said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. If you take good care of yourself in the past three years, you will definitely be able to find a good doctor to relieve your Majesty's troubles..."
After hearing this, Ji Qi just shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "If my disease can be cured by ordinary doctors, why would I have to get to this point?"
Lin Bai was silent for a while after hearing this. Although he knew that there was nothing wrong with what Ji Qi said, he still couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.
"Ahem!"
At this moment, Ji Qi coughed violently again.
Lin Bai saw this and said quickly: "Your Majesty, take the medicine first."
He really couldn't bear to see Ji Qi being tortured like this. Ji Qi nodded when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the jade box, and a green rune appeared on the jade box.
Ji Qi exerted a little force, and the runes immediately dispersed. This was the mark left by Wei Yangguan on the jade box. Only Wei Yangguan and Ji Qi could open it. This was to prevent the object from being destroyed on the way, or perhaps
steal.
Ji Qi took a deep breath and opened the jade box at that time.
Lin Bai, who was standing behind Jiqi, could not clearly see the situation in the box, but saw Jiqi's back trembling at that time.
Lin Bai was a little confused and was about to ask, but he heard Ji Qi shrug his shoulders and then start laughing loudly.
Ji Qi's laughter was loud, one after another, becoming wilder and sadder, echoing in the Mingzhao Hall for a long time.
"Why is Your Majesty laughing...?" Lin Bai asked a little strangely.
When Ji Qi heard this, he turned around and looked at Lin Bai with a sad expression: "I laugh at myself for being ignorant. I am a mortal but I call myself the emperor!"
"But I don't know that God's will is difficult to violate, and the number of days is difficult to change..."
Lin Bai frowned. He didn't know why Ji Qi's strange behavior occurred, but he could feel that this change seemed to be related to the pill sent from Bailong Mountain.
Just as he was about to look, Ji Qi raised his hand and handed the object over.
Lin Bai was stunned and looked deeply, only to see that there was no elixir in the jade box, only a piece of white paper, which read:
Destiny is determined, and God will not change it.
Under the heaven and earth, everyone is a stupid dog.
Your Majesty, please express your condolences.
"This..." The moment he saw the handwriting on the note clearly, Lin Bai's expression changed.
The next moment, he flew into a rage and said in a trembling voice: "This Wei Yangguan is so brave, he dares to tease His Majesty!"
"I'm going to mobilize the nine divisions of the three prefectures and make him hand over the elixir..."
When Ji Qi heard this, she waved her hand: "Forget it."
"When I got this serious disease, I asked Wei Yangguan for help. At that time, I was discouraged. He asked me to do my best. If it didn't work, there would be a magic pill to save my life."
"Now that I think about it, those words were just to comfort me at that time..."
"If you have good intentions, how can you call it a lie?"
Hearing Ji Qi's words, Lin Bai's body trembled and his eyes became increasingly red. Although he was unwilling to accept such a result, he was not hungry and refused to admit it. This was the fact.
"Cough cough cough!!"
At this moment, Ji Qi coughed violently again. Ji Qi quickly covered her mouth. Lin Bai saw
Zhuang Ye quickly reached out his hand to help Ji Qi.
But he saw Ji Qi let go of his hand at this moment, and the palm of his hand was stained with a shocking bright red color.
At that time, Ji Qi was holding the desk with one hand and supporting herself with the other, muttering to herself: "I don't have much time, there are some things..."
"It needs to be done quickly."
…
It was already getting late, and everyone in the prince's residence had already settled down.
Qingzhu took Xia Xianyin to Li Danqing's room.
Xia Xianyin's face turned red and she asked, "What are you doing, sister?"
Qingzhu blinked, looked at Xia Xianyin with a half-smile and said, "Young Master asked me to bring you here to wait for him."
Xia Xianyin's face turned even redder. She thought of the ridiculous things yesterday. From the beginning, she was confused and then inexplicably fell into it, confused and confused.
"Sister, just wait...why are you taking me..." Xia Xianyin said in a panic. After saying this, she turned around and wanted to leave.
"I can't handle it alone, shouldn't my sister share the burden?" Qingzhu said with a smile, her eyes as charming as silk.
Xia Xianyin could not have imagined that Qingzhu, who used to be serious and polite, would now become that bastard's accomplice.
She couldn't resist and was about to leave, but at this moment the door was suddenly pushed open. Xia Xianyin was caught off guard and bumped into the man.
She looked up and saw that it was Li Danqing who had been gone for a day.
Seeing the real master, Xia Xianyin became more and more panicked, and she quickly lowered her head.
Li Danqing stared at Xia Xianyin meaningfully and said, "Where is Xiao Xianyin going so late? Shouldn't I go to bed at this time?"
Li Shizi intended to tease the other party, so he pronounced the word "sleep" very strongly.
After hearing this, Xia Xianyin raised his head and glared at Li Danqing, and said somewhat guiltily: "There is no way I will do that ridiculous thing again today, I... I'm leaving..."
After saying that, he was determined to leave. Li Danqing smiled slightly, but at this moment he took out the same thing from his back and handed it to Xia Xianyin: "By the way, Xiao Xianyin, I have a gift for you.
.”
Xia Xianyin was stunned and looked at the thing. Her expression suddenly changed and her pupils suddenly dilated.
It was a weird thing, with eight scabbards linked together, and the handles were tied with iron chains at the joints, making it a whole.
"This is... Yuanhu!" Xia Xianyin recognized this object just by looking at it. Her body trembled and her expression was moved.
Back then, the Xia family was executed by the entire clan. In order to survive, with Yin Wujiang as a guarantee, the ancestral sword Yuanhu was dedicated to the Ying family. For many years after that, Xia Xianyin always wanted to take back the ancestral sword, but she didn't want this thing to appear today.
into the hands of Li Danqing.
"You... how did you get it?" Xia Xianyin took Yuan Hu and asked with a complicated expression while stroking the blade.
Li Danqing smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this? I walked to the Ying family and told my name. Naturally, those guys in the Ying family were shocked by my reputation and handed over this thing obediently!"
Of course Xia Xianyin knew Li Danqing's temperament, he was full of nonsense, but he was also inexplicably reliable.
She stared at the serious guy in front of her who wanted to establish a majestic image in front of her, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt...
nice.
Her heart felt hot, and she put Yuan Hu aside, stretched out her hands and put them around his neck, stood on tiptoes, and put her lips on him at that moment.
a long time.
Lip parting.
Li Danqing and Qingzhu both looked at her with ambiguous eyes. She was a little embarrassed, and her face was so rosy that it seemed like water could drip from her face.
