Chapter 590: Encouraging Ling Cang to Kill Su Nuan

Ling Cang came back to his senses, unhappy that she had interrupted his thoughts, as he was thinking about something else.

He felt that he was not the best person to run the country because he only knew how to follow the rules.

Ling Yun has a bad temper and is easily impulsive. When all the officials go to court, he may not see them leave.

Either he kills a few people or a few people are pissed off to death by him. In short, he is not a good choice.

So if it really comes to that, and someone must be picked out to be the manager, then Su Nuan is the most suitable person.

He looked at Muqian and asked, "What did you say?"

Mu Man's chest was heaving with anger, but in order to achieve her goal, she had to endure it.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Ling Cang, I'm here to help you stop the emperor. Can you please respect me?"

Ling Cang asked in confusion: "Why should I respect you? I can live well without you."

Mu Mian wanted to hold her head in her hands and scream. Is this person really Ling Cang? How could he be so stupid!

Finally, she gave in, sat back down, stared at Ling Cang and asked, "Then tell me, what will you do in the future?"

"And when the officials from the capital arrive, how will you respond?"

"Don't trust Su Nuan too much. She will definitely leave Beidi with Zhao Jingcheng and betray you."

Su Nuan overheard this and felt depressed. If Zhao Jingcheng really came, she would definitely set up eight or ten traps to entertain him. If he couldn't be killed, he would be crippled at least.

Muqian from next door is still slandering Su Nuan.

She snorted coldly and said, "Su Zhen is not someone you can easily mess with. She already knows that Su Nuan has a treasure that can be used to store things, so she will let Zhao Jingcheng trick the treasure away."

"Su Nuan is soft-hearted. Zhao Jingcheng coaxed her into losing her mind with just a few words. She loves him to the point of madness."

Ling Cang's eyes turned cold, he stood up suddenly, stretched out his long arms and grabbed Mu Mian's neck across the table.

He asked coldly: "You were lying just now, what is the truth?"

Mu Mian's face was pale, and she tried desperately to grab Ling Cang's hand, but unfortunately it could only leave a few shallow white marks on the back of his hand.

Finally, she realized that she couldn't break free, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Let... go..."

Ling Cang loosened his grip a little but did not let her go, just stared at her coldly.

Mu Man felt like he was being stared at by a ferocious beast and his neck could be bitten off at any time.

She didn't dare to exaggerate and said quickly, "Su Zhen has a kind of infatuation poison. She asked Zhao Jingcheng to find an opportunity to feed the poison to Su Nuan, so that Su Nuan would be completely devoted to him."

Ling Cang's calm eyes flashed with murderous intent. He let go of his hand and said, "Sit down and tell me everything you know."

"Don't try to deceive me with words. What is Zhao Jingcheng's purpose in coming here?"

Mu Mian was truly frightened. She sat dejectedly on a stool and said in a trembling voice, "Zhao Jingcheng is here to ask for food. Not only from your northern land, but also from any city he passes by along the way. He'll take some food away."

"Because Su Nuan wants to rebel, she needs food to support her troops and the people."

Ling Cang narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then why did Zhao Jingcheng insist on taking Su Nuan away?"

Mu Mian took a deep breath and replied, "Because Su Zhen discovered that Su Nuan's grandmother was once a princess, the jade pendant awarded by the royal family when they were crowned a princess or a prince is a treasure."

"This treasure can only be activated with orthodox blood. If it is obtained by an outsider after activation, it must be reactivated every month by mixing the original owner's blood with your own."

"Su Zhen is not of royal blood, she wants to use Su Nuan as a blood bank."

Ling Cang's eyes flickered, and he deliberately said, "I know that Su Nuan's jade pendant is a treasure, but it was unfortunately snatched away by a priest from the Northern Snow Country. Does that mean the jade pendant is useless now that it's been stolen?"

Muqian nodded. "It's useless. If you steal it, it will be useless. Besides, other people can't grow anything in it. It can only be used as a mobile warehouse."

"If you come and use it yourself, you can not only enter the space inside, but also raise animals in it."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and a snow-white chicken appeared on the ground, cackling with a confused look on its face.

Ling Cang was genuinely surprised this time. He frowned and asked, "Are you also of royal blood?"

Kapok nodded, a hint of pride on his face, "Yes."

Ling Cang pondered for a moment and said, "Given the current emperor's level of stupidity, your mother was probably just a palace maid."

The smile on Muqian's face froze, and all his pride was shattered into pieces.

She took a deep breath and said, "That's not important. What's important is that my blood can also activate the treasures left in the royal family."

"It's not a big deal that Su Nuan was taken away. After all, there are better ones in the royal family."

"As long as the royal family is alive and can provide blood, Su Zhen can use those treasures to carry things."

Ling Cang narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Mian with a playful look, "So you came to me to make me the emperor and then make you the queen?"

Mumian's eyes lit up, "Yes, I must be the queen."

Ling Cang sneered, "You? Are you prettier than Su Nuan, or are you better at martial arts than Su Nuan? Or is it that your crops yield more than Su Nuan's?"

Mu Mian was stunned and stared at Ling Cang blankly. She was not as good as Su Nuan in these three aspects. Didn’t she have any advantages at all?

She bit her lip and finally said unwillingly: "There are many seeds and livestock in this bracelet of mine, all of which are very good varieties."

"So I'm more useful than Su Nuan. I can give you seeds to plant, and the yield will definitely be high."

She pointed at the white-feathered chicken on the ground and said, "Look, this is a black chicken, and it's also a Chinese medicinal material. You don't have chickens of this quality now."

Ling Cang pondered for a moment and asked, "Then how do you think I should treat Su Nuan? After all, everyone knows that she is my wife and the breadwinner of everyone in the North."

Mu Mian was delighted, thinking that she had persuaded Ling Cang.

Her eyes turned cold and she said, "Su Nuan will run away with Zhao Jingcheng sooner or later. You might as well kill her once and for all."

"You don't want Su Nuan to become Su Zhen's blood bank, do you? Her death will only benefit you."

Su Nuan laughed secretly when she heard this. She was sure that Ling Cang would not kill her. She did have some confidence in this.

But the space spirit was already furious, and seemed to be jumping around on Ling Cang's head, causing the screen to shake.

"Ah—I'm so pissed off, Ling Cang. Answer carefully! If you dare to hurt Nuan Nuan's heart, I... I'll bite your head off!"

Su Nuan quickly sent a voice message to the space spirit, "No, listen first. Ling Cang is trying to trick me. He won't do anything to me."

The space spirit finally calmed down, but it flew a little further away so that Su Nuan could see the expressions of the two people clearly.

Su Nuan knew her intention, which was to let her discern Ling Cang's expression.

But even though he knew a little about Ling Cang's character, he couldn't judge his inner thoughts from his expression, because he was a human, not a god.
