Not only did I not sleep, this was destined to be a sleepless night.
Caught off guard!
Just as Baili Feiyue returned after meeting the people from the Holy Church, and just as Dongfang Ye's spies in Shuiyun Oasis were trying to report Baili Feiyue's every move to Dongfang Ye, a person no one expected gave a quick, accurate and ruthless order to kill Dongfang Ye!
This person was none other than Baili Feiyue's mother, Empress Fengluan Qian Qingwu.
Before the incident, the people in Shuiyue Oasis didn't even notice anything unusual.
Not to mention the other people, even Baili Feiyue, the daughter, didn't notice anything unusual.
It was not until Baili Feiyue returned to the inn and stepped into the yard that he suddenly heard shouts of killing in the distance!
Although there were many people in Shuiyue Oasis, the night was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Therefore, it was easy to determine the general direction of the sudden shouting and killing.
That is the location of Dongfang Ye and others’ tents!
In just the blink of an eye, the inn where Empress Fengluan was staying was protected inside and out!
Baili Feiyue was stunned for only a blink of an eye, then she quickly ran towards Qian Qingwu's house.
The cold-faced guard guarding Qian Qingwu's door did not stop Baili Feiyue. When Baili Feiyue ran in, she saw that Qian Qingwu, who was supposed to be asleep, was not asleep at all. She was still sitting on the head of the bed with her robe on.
Also sitting in the room were a dozen of Qian Qingwu's subordinates, whom Baili Feiyue had seen before or not.
When those people saw Baili Feiyue coming in like a gust of wind, they all stood up and saluted respectfully to Baili Feiyue.
Baili Feiyue asked them to sit down and rushed to Qian Qingwu's bedside impatiently, "Mom, why are you suddenly..."
Qian Qingwu looked at the dozen or so subordinates in the room and said, "You go down first. I will talk to Jing'er."
After the dozen people left, only Baili Feiyue and Qian Qingwu were left in the room. Qian Qingwu said, "Jing'er, you should know that although the current monarch of Xiyue Country is your brother, the real strength of Xiyue Country is still in the hands of Dongfang Ye."
"As long as Dongfang Ye still holds such bargaining chips in his hand, he will never truly give up power. The fight between him and Fengluan is only a matter of time."
She smiled proudly, "Of course, this is not the reason why I attacked him. Dongfang Ye has always thought that he could calculate everything. He is too conceited, but he doesn't know that people's hearts are the most difficult to calculate."
Dongfang Ye thought that Qian Qingwu should at least take into account that her son Dongfang Qing was outside Shuiyue Oasis, and at least take into account that this son definitely did not want to see either of his biological parents being killed by the other.
Dongfang Ye thought too much of Qian Qingwu as a little girl and was being too emotional!
She, Qian Qingwu, is first the empress of Fengluan, and then the mother of Jing'er and Qing'er!
What's more, before she dies, she must make sure that everything she wants and does is fulfilled!
Dongfang Ye might be very clear that there would be a time when she would fight with him, but with his personality, he would never think that she would attack him tonight!
Baili Feiyue was silent for a moment. "Mom, you know I went to find the people of the Holy Church, and you know I want to find a master to check your body. So your plan has been advanced."
Mother did this for Fengluan, but more importantly for her and Dongfang Qing!
Qian Qingwu did not deny it. Instead, she looked at Baili Feiyue with satisfaction.
She was not the type to be clingy and only whitewash things, and her daughter was not someone who could not stand things. "Dongfang Ye's goal was not only to weaken the strength of Fengluan and other countries that were joining in the fun, but also to get rid of Murong Shuo."
She frowned slightly, "It's not just the child, but also the hidden forces of the Holy Church under his control. The most important thing is to eradicate the real hidden foundation of the Murong family, the richest family in Xiyue."
In the previous incident with the Holy Church, it seemed that the Murong family had suffered heavy losses.
But such a wealthy family that could shake a country only weakened its superficial foundations, without shaking its roots at all.
Dongfang Ye doesn't trust the Murong family, or rather, he doesn't trust anyone.
The Murong family is the richest family in Xiyue that can shake the national strength of Xiyue. Even though Madam Murong, the head of the family, is loyal to the Xiyue royal family and has secretly supported the Xiyue royal family for many years, it is a crime to possess a treasure, so how can you allow others to sleep beside your bed!
Mrs. Murong of the Murong family is, after all, just a woman, and her physical and mental state is getting worse and worse.
Although Murong Shuo was nominally a "dead man", and had separated from the Murong family when he was alive, he even broke off all ties with the Murong family in the end.
But he was not dead after all, and he was the only direct bloodline of the Murong family!
Moreover, he not only has the blood of the Murong family, but also the blood of the Xiyue royal family!
As long as he is alive, who can guarantee that the people of Murong family will not one day come up with the idea of asking the royal family of Xiyue Kingdom to change their surname?
It's totally justified!
Baili Feiyue had thought of what Qian Qingwu said before, but after the incident with the Holy Church, Murong Ye put more attention on other countries.
He did not target his master and the Murong family as he did before.
Now that I think about it, in the heart of Emperor Xiyue, Murong Shuo and the Murong family are even more worrying to him than powerful countries like Fengluan and Dajing.
The fundamental goal of everything he did has always been his master and the Murong family.
It has never changed.
This was also what she had thought through the moment she went out to look for the people from the Holy Church and decided to find a master to cure her mother's illness.
Qian Qingwu added, "I always feel that Dongfang Ye's purpose is more than just this."
Baili Feiyue also agreed with Qian Qingwu's idea.
Just like this time when he plotted against his master, even if he didn't plot against her, his disciple, or his mother, his master would most likely come to watch the fun. Then, why did Dongfang Ye go to so much trouble to plot against her and his mother...
Dealing with Fengluan is only one aspect.
There must be other purposes as well.
However, in addition to thinking about how many kinds of medicine Dongfang Ye has in his gourd, there is also the matter at hand.
Since my mother has already taken action unexpectedly, if I can kill or injure Dongfang Ye before the master arrives, then no matter what ideas he has in his mind, they can be strangled in the cradle!
However, Baili Feiyue spoke calmly, "Mother, with the strength of Dongfang Ye that you know about now, what are our chances of winning?"
Qian Qingwu was not the kind of person who was unrealistic, and said calmly, "We are now equally strong."
Dongfang Ye couldn't take advantage, and she couldn't take advantage easily either.
This is a war of attrition, and both sides will suffer losses the most likely outcome.
But she didn't have time to keep fighting with Dongfang Ye. She had to make a quick decision because she really didn't have much time and couldn't afford to waste it.
At this moment, someone came from outside to report the urgent battle situation.
