When the ministers present saw this scene, they knew that the palace coup was finally coming to an end.
It started so unexpectedly, and it ended just as abruptly.
Qiu Qiyi was arrested and imprisoned in the dungeon. However, before his arrest, he said something to Qiu Jingfan:
"You will come begging to me!"
Qiu Jingfan didn't understand at first, but he didn't care. In the following days, Qiu Jingfan successfully took charge of the overall situation, controlled the Zhao Kingdom, and appeased the ministers, so he forgot about Qiu Qiyi's last words.
However, Lin Yuxin was still not found, and Li Xiaochen was almost frantic. After Qiu Jingfan succeeded, Li Xiaochen went to find Qiu Jingfan and told him about Lin Yuxin's disappearance.
Qiu Jingfan was also taken aback. Lin Yuxin had disappeared? That was terrible!
So Qiu Jingfan secretly sent more people to search, but they couldn't find it even after several days.
Li Xiaochen was already very anxious and frustrated. He had sent a message back to Xia Kingdom and sent people over. He planned to conduct a thorough search of Zhao Kingdom.
Xin Xin is currently pregnant. If she really went to the space, she should have come out by now, but she hasn't. This means that she is currently bound.
Li Xiaochen sat in the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a gloomy face, waiting for news. He had already sent out all his and Xin Xin's people in Zhao to search, hoping to get some information.
Qiu Jingfan was sitting at his desk dealing with state affairs, but with such an icy figure sitting there, he felt uncomfortable and couldn't concentrate on his work.
I have a feeling that if this man can't figure things out, he might suddenly rush over and kill me too!
Just as Qiu Jingfan was considering whether to call his bodyguards to protect him, he suddenly remembered something Qiu Qiyi had said to him on the day he was captured. He abruptly stood up and said to Li Xiaochen, who was on the verge of a violent outburst:
"Perhaps Qiu Qiyi knows where Lin Yuxin went!"
Li Xiaochen's expression hardened, and he stood up abruptly.
When the two hurriedly arrived at the prison, they saw Qiu Qiyi sitting calmly on a straw mat, resting with his eyes closed. Apart from his clothes being a little dirty, he had no other injuries.
Do you know where Lin Yuxin is?
Qiu Jingfan looked at Qiu Qiyi and asked directly.
"Heh, why would you come looking for me? I'm a prisoner now, how could I possibly know that bitch? But if she's dead, I'd be quite happy. She's ruined me so badly, with her buried with me, I can die in peace."
Qiu Qiyi said calmly, his tone carrying a hint of schadenfreude, but without a trace of surprise, which showed that he must know something.
Li Xiaochen couldn't hold back any longer. He rushed forward, grabbed Qiu Qiyi by the neck, and said with a hint of murderous intent:
"Tell me where Xin Xin is if you don't want to die! Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to make you wish you were dead!"
"Oh? Isn't this the renowned Regent of Xia Kingdom? This is our first time meeting, isn't it? It's quite an honor to meet such a majestic Regent! But if you're looking for your Queen, why are you in the Heavenly Prison? You should look outside; perhaps the Queen has gone out for a stroll?"
Qiu Qiyi looked at Li Xiaochen, who had a murderous look on his face, without being afraid at all. He even raised an eyebrow and said provocatively.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaochen couldn't hold back any longer. He tightened his grip slightly, instantly squeezing Qiu Qiyi's neck so tightly that he couldn't speak!
Gradually, Qiu Qiyi's face also began to turn red, and she was exhaling more than inhaling.
Qiu Jingfan frowned. He was genuinely afraid that Li Xiaochen would kill Qiu Qiyi, so he went up to him and whispered his advice:
"Brother Xiaochen, now is not the time to kill him. Finding Miss Lin is the priority. If you kill him, it will be even more difficult to find Miss Lin!"
Li Xiaochen stared at Qiu Qiyi with a cold gaze. He really wanted to kill him, but Qiu Jingfan's words reminded him that Xin Xin had not been found yet, and he could not die!
Suddenly he let go, and Qiu Qiyi felt no more suffocation because he was suddenly released, but his neck was still in excruciating pain.
With a sudden influx of air into his nasal cavity, he couldn't help but cough violently for a while before recovering.
He leaned against the wall, watching Li Xiaochen's lips curl into a strange smile, then he said in a hoarse voice:
"You won't find her! That woman Lin Yuxin will only be buried with me! Once I'm dead, she'll definitely die too! Hahaha!!"
"you…!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaochen clenched his fists again, but Qiu Jingfan suddenly grabbed his shoulder and pressed him down.
Qiu Jingfan looked at Qiu Qiyi and said expressionlessly:
"Are you sure you've hidden Miss Lin well? You probably don't know what Miss Lin is capable of, do you? If you did, you probably wouldn't be so happy!"
"What do you mean?"
Qiu Qiyi's smile suddenly froze! He asked.
"You'll understand what I mean when we find Miss Lin."
After Qiu Jingfan finished speaking, he pushed Li Xiaochen out of the prison.
He was afraid that if he left the person behind, Li Xiaochen might not be able to hold back and actually kill Qiu Jingfan.
After returning to the Imperial Study, Qiu Jingfan looked at Li Xiaochen, who was on the verge of exploding, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke:
“Brother Xiaochen, you acted impulsively just now. No matter what his purpose is, he will not harm the Princess for the time being. Moreover, you should trust the Princess. With her abilities, she certainly has the ability to protect herself!”
"Although I don't know what tricks the princess has up her sleeve, the fact that she can produce so many amazing items tells me that she is no ordinary person. You must trust her!"
Qiu Jingfan wasn't stupid; everything Lin Yuxin brought out was unique! Even the water he drank made his body feel warm!
Besides, there were those mysterious weapons! This is why he gradually let go of his doubts and vigilance and became friends with them.
Who wouldn't want such a powerful and mysterious friend? As long as you maintain a good relationship with them, both his throne and the Zhao Kingdom can benefit from it.
It might even get better!
His success in winning over Qiu Qiyi this time proves that his idea was correct.
They were truly his benefactors.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaochen's mind cleared up. That's right, Xin Xin had so many trump cards and couldn't possibly be in trouble easily. He couldn't afford to lose his composure now; he had to go find her.
But where could she be? Suddenly, Li Xiaochen thought of the tiger that Xin Xin had left a few kilometers away from Bianjing. That tiger had stayed in Xin Xin's space for so long, maybe it had a way to find Xin Xin.
Li Xiaochen stood up abruptly and strode outside.
Hey! Where are you going?!
Qiu Jingfan could only call out helplessly as he watched Li Xiaochen's retreating figure, but received no response. Qiu Qiyi had no choice but to return to his desk and resignedly begin dealing with state affairs.
You don't know until you deal with it, and once you start dealing with it, it could really cost him his life!
Floods and tsunamis are all problems left over from Qiu Qiyi, and that guy didn't deal with them.
What infuriated him most was that the national treasury was empty?! No wonder Qiu Qiyi said that before he was imprisoned.
What he left behind is basically a sieve, full of holes, and he has to find a way to plug it.
