Song Jinming looked at his daughter's clear big eyes and suddenly felt that he must have been overthinking it.
Although my daughter is only three and a half years old, her soul is already over ten years old. How could she possibly look down on an eight-year-old kid?
Maybe Jiuer simply thinks that the little prince Rong Yanqing is a good person.
Yes, that's right, that's it.
Thinking of this, Song Jinming felt a lot more relieved.
"Your Highness the Ninth Prince is indeed a good child.
For now, let’s put the matter of the Xian Dynasty on hold and see what happens to Qi Yan and Yan Chiguo.”
Seeing that her father was trying to change the subject again, Song Jiujiu hurriedly reminded him in a baby voice.
"Dad! You haven't finished what you just said!
Jiuer also wants to go to the Immortal Dynasty with you!"
After saying that, she twisted her little body and acted coquettishly with her mother.
"Mother, you agree, right? Mother, please persuade Father!"
Jiuer can really help!"
Ye Peizhu raised her eyes and glanced at her husband.
Song Jinming sighed, "Jiu'er, wait for daddy to think about it. Let's deal with Qi Yan's matter first, and then continue to talk about the affairs of the Immortal Dynasty."
Song Jiujiu pouted and said, "Okay."
"Someone, call Qi Yan over here."
Song Jinming gave an order, and soon Qi Yan came in wearing a guard uniform.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, and Your Highness the Princess."
Song Jinming nodded and winked at the guard standing behind Qi Yan.
The guard understood and raised his hand to chop Qi Yan's neck with a knife, knocking him unconscious.
The guard picked up the unconscious Qi Yan, placed him on the couch and left.
Gu Yunsheng came forward and cut a cut on the tip of Qi Yan's finger. Then she whispered something, and soon, a black insect in the form of a cricket pupa crawled out from the cut on the tip of Qi Yan's finger.
Gu Yunsheng caught the insect with quick eyes and hands.
She looked at the insect and said, "The one who poisoned Yan Qi is indeed the one who poisoned him. Uncle, do you want to poison Yan Qi again and interrogate him?"
Song Jinming shook his head. "Don't use the Gu for now. Let's interrogate him first. If he doesn't answer honestly, it won't be too late to use the Gu again."
The guard controlled the strength of his knife hand just right, so the guard was stunned but not hurt.
After a while, Qi Yan woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he met Song Jiujiu's big black and white eyes. He was startled and couldn't react to what was going on.
"Qi Yan, you're awake. Then get up."
Song Jiujiu gave the order in a baby voice, and Qi Yan only then realized that he was actually lying down, and his neck was a little painful.
He sat up and saw the emperor, empress and an unfamiliar woman sitting nearby, so he quickly stood up.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
"Qi Yan, no, it should be Yan Qi."
When Song Jinming said the name Yan Qi, Yan Qi's pupils constricted.
He didn't know why he was discovered even though he was hiding so well!
His thoughts turned and he decided to play dumb.
But Song Jinming seemed to be able to read his thoughts, "I know that you are the Crown Prince of Yan Chi Kingdom, Yan Qi, Your Highness the Crown Prince does not need to play dumb and deny it.
Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disguise himself as a street beggar and sneak into the palace?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is actually willing to be a spy? "
Now that his secrets have been exposed, Yan Qi is not going to play dumb and deny it anymore.
But when he was about to accuse Fufeng State of its actions, he suddenly found that his original anger and hatred towards Fufeng State seemed to have faded a lot in an instant.
He could not even remember what evil things Fufeng had done to their Yanchi Kingdom. As a prince, he would not hesitate to disguise himself as a beggar to sneak into the Fufeng Kingdom's palace.
There was an obvious look of confusion on Yan Qi's young face.
Seeing this, Gu Yunsheng spoke.
"Your Highness, you were poisoned. I cured you of the poison when you were unconscious just now.
Are you unable to recall the hatred between Fufeng and Yanchi?"
Gu Yunsheng's words were too straightforward. Yan Qi was stunned for a moment and then shocked.
"I've been bewitched?!"
"Yes, you have been bewitched. Your Highness, please first tell us the purpose of your visit to Fufeng Country. Once we have spoken openly, all your questions will be answered."
Gu Yunsheng said softly.
If it was before the poison was removed, Yan Qi would not say anything easily.
But after the poison was removed, Yan Qi now felt his head buzzing, and many of his previous cognitions seemed to have changed in an instant.
He also wanted to know what was going on.
"Okay, I'll tell you, I'm indeed the Crown Prince of Yanchi State. The reason I came to Fufeng State is because I know there's hatred between Fufeng State and Yanchi State.
The Fufeng Kingdom is trying to wipe out the Yanchi Kingdom. We must find a way to destroy the Fufeng Kingdom!
Before me, my father sent spies to Fufeng Kingdom, but failed.
So I volunteered to come to Fufeng State.
I know a little bit about witchcraft, which I learned from the national teacher. The national teacher said that as long as I can successfully enter the royal family of Fufeng Kingdom, get close to the Fufeng Emperor, and successfully poison him, the Fufeng Emperor will slowly die.
Now that the country is without a king, we can continue with our subsequent plans.
I disguised myself as a street beggar and met the Emperor and the Princess. I wanted to use the grace of saving my life to get the Princess to take me into the palace.
So I put a curse on the dogs on the street, making them go crazy.
After that, I entered the palace smoothly and found several opportunities to successfully put a curse on Your Majesty.
But I found that you seemed to be protected by a more powerful poisonous insect, and I couldn't put the poison on you at all.
As a second choice, I wanted to put a curse on the Empress, Her Royal Highness the Princess, and several other princes.
But I couldn't put a curse on you, so I had to turn my attention to the animals in the zoo.
Although I was successful in putting the curse on the animals, it did not harm Her Royal Highness the Princess. Instead, it was my own fault.
I'm sure you're all protected by poisonous insects, and I can't put the poison on you, so I won't take any action for the time being. I plan to find a chance to contact Yan Chiguo and see what to do next.
These are things that have happened and what I just thought.
But just now......"
Yan Qi's eyes showed confusion, "After this girl cured me of the poison, my hatred towards Fufeng State and my determination to destroy it have faded a lot.
I can’t even recall what Fufeng State did to Yanchi State that would make us swear to destroy Fufeng State…”
Gu Yunsheng opened her palm, revealing the dead black poisonous insect.
"This is the poisonous insect I just took out of your body, Your Highness. This kind of poisonous insect can affect a person's consciousness.
Simply put, it has a brainwashing effect. The person who put the poison on you must have instilled in you a lot of hatred towards the Fufeng Kingdom.
Now that the poison has left your body, the hatred has naturally disappeared."
Yan Qi stared at the ugly black poisonous insect in a daze.
He was not stupid and immediately figured out the reason.
"So the person who cast the spell on me was actually using me..."
