From behind the curtain came Qi Huang's voice, which could change its tone.

When do we depart?

Yan Yunqing gave a soft snort.

"Lord Li, if this woman is of use to the Emperor, you will certainly be rewarded handsomely. But if she is useless... you should make preparations as soon as possible."

After saying this, he got into the carriage, whipped it, and drove away.

Li Zhi couldn't help but break out in layers of cold sweat on his forehead.

"Oh no, my dear daughter, why are you in such a hurry? What if this woman isn't very capable? We'll both be implicated!"

He was so anxious he was jumping up and down, but he was powerless to do anything about it.

What he feared even more was that the woman he offered up might actually be very capable, loyal to the emperor, and then what would that have to do with the Li family?

Didn't he just work for nothing?

But now, all they can do is watch helplessly as the carriage rumbles down the long street and disappears into the dim moonlight.

After passing through one palace gate after another,

When Qi Huang was taken in by the chief eunuch, he was led all the way to the front of the Jade Spirit Palace.

It's almost midnight.

A series of seductive moans echoed from inside the hall, causing the eunuchs and palace maids kneeling outside the door to blush deeply.

The chief eunuch coughed softly.

He turned his head to look at Qi Huang.

But she remained standing there, coldly.

There was no sign of shyness or timidity.

He couldn't help but think more highly of him.

It seems this woman is no ordinary person.

At this moment, however, a look of joy flashed in Qi Huang's eyes.

The scent of the Bone Heart Stone in the air grew stronger with the roar of the waves.

Master said that the Bone Heart Stone is very evil.

It is very likely to amplify a certain trait of the person carrying it.

It is also possible that it can absorb spiritual energy that helps nourish the Bone Heart Stone through some means.

For example, the residual power of the Bone Heart Stone in the clone will absorb resentment and yin energy due to Jiang Qingwan's obsessive purpose.

For example,

Mo Yunzhao's bone-heart stone, which was forcibly poured into his dantian by the Empress Dowager,

Because Yin and Yang are different, one desires harmony between them.

The scene from that day in the prison of the Prefect of Jingzhao flashed through her mind.

Luo Ruyan was determined to become an imperial concubine, so she would give her that opportunity.

As long as Mo Yunzhao sees Luo Ruyan, the Bone Heart Stone within him will inevitably succumb to temptation.

Once you're hooked, it's hard to let go.

The talisman she placed inside Luo Ruyan's body,

In the process of yin and yang being harmonized time and time again,

It slowly eroded the bone stone enveloping Mo Yunzhao's body.

When the time is right, it can be completely separated.

She wanted to reclaim all the Bone Heart Stones scattered throughout the world; they were the treasures of the Sui Dynasty.

As for those who harmed the Sui Dynasty, she will make them pay the price they deserve, one by one, in her own way.
