The World is Shocked 84. Saint of Southern Xinjiang

An Er knew many masters of interrogation, such as the romantic and suave Third Master Feng Zhiyao, the leader of the dark guards who was responsible for their training, and Uncle Mo, the steward of Dingguo Palace, who was serious and silent but actually kind-hearted. But An Er never knew that their master, the originally delicate Princess Dingguo, was also an expert in this area. Many times, the four of them couldn't help but secretly guess in their hearts how much the Ye family had treated the princess, so that a daughter of a famous family was twisted into this?

It would take a lot of effort to get the unlucky assassin out of the Princess's Mansion. At this moment when the Princess's Mansion is under strict security, the cost of getting him out may not be proportional to the reward they get. So An Er did not plan to wait until tomorrow, he was ready to pry open the mouth of the unlucky guard on the spot. The area of ​​the guest house is not small, and the inner room where Ye Li lives is at the innermost, so as long as they don't scream, even the people monitoring outside the courtyard will not notice anything. Of course, the secret guards who were originally lurking in the Princess's Mansion would not let people who shouldn't be close to the guest house get close. After the unlucky assassin was forced to drink a cup of cold tea mixed with Softening Powder, he couldn't scream even if he wanted to.

So several strange scenes appeared in the elegantly decorated room. On one side of the couch lay a sleeping maid from southern Xinjiang, and by the table sat a pretty girl writing and drawing under the lamp. A few steps away, cruel and inhumane torture was going on. An Er broke the assassin's left leg bone with a gloomy face. The assassin's face was pale and sweaty, but he still refused to speak. Because of the space restrictions, he could not use too troublesome and bloody methods, which made An Er's face more and more ugly. Until Ye Li finished dealing with her own affairs and raised her head, An Er still couldn't make the assassin utter a useful word, but he almost gave the assassin the opportunity to bite his tongue and commit suicide.

"No? Need help?" Ye Li stood up and asked. An Er's mouth twitched and he shook his head and said, "It's better not to trouble Miss with this matter."

"It doesn't matter. He won't admit it even if I break another leg of his."

"Then I will smash all the bones in his body." An Er stared at the assassin coldly.

Ye Li shook her head and laughed, "Once you break his bones, he will be dead."

"What do you think, miss?"

Ye Li walked over leisurely, squatted down, smiled at the assassin on the ground, and said softly: "You can understand the Central Plains dialect, right? Don't worry, I won't be as rude as him." The assassin stared at the pretty girl in front of him with a kind smile. As an assassin, his intuition told him that this pretty and lovely girl in front of him was the real dangerous person.

Ye Li smiled at the assassin who was staring at her warily, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I won't break your bones like he did. I plan to... remove all the bones in your body. Let's start with... your fingers." She took the assassin's left hand with her slender hands, and with a click, one of the knuckles of the left index finger twisted strangely. Ye Li continued to move downwards, and there was another clear sound, and the whole index finger twisted. The assassin couldn't even scream after his jaw was removed. He could only make vague "ah ah" sounds. Ye Li looked at him, "Just nod whenever you want to take a photo, but... don't really wait until I remove all the bones in your body before nodding, it will be too late then."

Snap...

Ye Li looked calm, but her hands were moving in an orderly manner. It was this calmness that was more frightening than the threats from An Er. When Ye Li moved her hand to the assassin's right hand, the assassin, whose face was pale and whose breathing was weak, finally nodded with difficulty. Ye Li raised her eyebrows, glanced at An Er and said, "I thought he was really a tough guy, but he is like this?" An Er wiped the sweat from his forehead silently. He also felt that this assassin was too useless, but at the same time, he felt that the scary thing about his master was not her torture methods, but her frightening calmness. If it were him, he would be afraid too.

"Very good, but don't joke with me. Otherwise... the consequences will only make you regret living in this world." Ye Li looked at him sincerely and advised.

Ye Li nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, then tell me who your master is?" Ye Li asked, waving her hand to signal An Er to close his chin. A trace of fear flashed across the assassin's eyes, and he looked at Ye Li and opened his mouth but still said nothing. Ye Li frowned and thought for a while, "If you are worried about your life safety, I can guarantee your safety. And after I finish my business in Southern Xinjiang, I can give you a sum of money so that you can change your name and start a new life." The assassin's eyes flashed, and his expression became more hesitant. Ye Li saw it, and the smile on his face became more sincere, "Your information is very important to me, so... as long as you give me the real news, I promise to fulfill the above promise. However, I think you should also understand that you are not the only one who knows the news. If you don't tell others, they may tell you. Then... I'm sorry, I can only..." Seeing the assassin's nervous expression, Ye Li smiled and said, "No, I won't kill you. When I came to Southern Xinjiang, I passed a valley full of blood-red flowers. Under each flower, there was a small snake. At that time, I was thinking, what do so many snakes eat to grow up? What do you think..."

"Snakes...Snake Valley...No..." People in the Central Plains are not the only ones who are afraid of places like Snake Valley. People in southern Xinjiang are indeed not afraid of snakes, but except for the snake-beating people, no one would not be afraid of thousands of uncontrollable venomous snakes.

"So...your answer?"

"I said...what do you want to ask?"

Ye Li turned around and looked at An Er, raising her eyebrows in satisfaction.

In fact, not much information was obtained from the assassin. After all, the person who was sent out as cannon fodder was unlikely to be a core figure. However, at least Ye Li's guess was partially confirmed, and the target of Xu Qingchen's disappearance was also locked. However, Xu Qingchen's exact location was still unknown. Since it was confirmed that Xu Qingchen's life was not in danger for the time being, Ye Li's worried heart finally relaxed.

"Jun Wei...Jun Wei..."

A burst of joyful shouts rang out on the noisy street, and passers-by looked over and saw a handsome man in white Central Plains clothing waving happily to the young man not far away. Ye Li turned around and sighed helplessly when she saw the man in white running towards her. She smiled and said, "Brother Han, I haven't seen you for a few days. Are you okay?" Han Mingxi looked at Ye Li with a charming look in his eyes, "Jun Wei, I came all the way to Nanzhao with you, and you actually left me alone. You are so cruel..."

People... Ye Li shuddered unconsciously. Although the passers-by didn't understand what he was saying, they looked at him strangely from the look and tone of his voice.

"Brother Han!" Ye Li couldn't help but stroke his forehead, and tried his best to control his temper before smiling: "Brother Han, have you finally gotten enough sleep? It's really rare."

Han Mingxi didn't feel guilty at all. He came up to her and said with a smile, "No, I woke up a long time ago and walked around the city. But I didn't see Jun Wei. Why didn't Jun Wei tell me when he had something to do? Wouldn't it be safer if I go with you?" Ye Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm just looking around, not going to explore the dragon's den and the tiger's den." Han Mingxi shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Even if Jun Wei wants to go to explore the dragon's den and the tiger's den, I will accompany you." After saying that, he did not forget to blink at Ye Li, and his eyes were full of "look how good I am to you."

Ye Li frowned. She had not expected to run into Han Mingxi. But it was obviously very inconvenient to bring Han Mingxi with her now. But if she did not bring him with her, given Han Mingxi's personality, she really did not know what he would do to the Nanzhao capital by letting Tianyi Pavilion make a scene. After thinking for a while, Ye Li said, "Brother Han, let's talk somewhere else."

After finding a teahouse and sitting down, Ye Li said, "Brother Han, I have something to do and it might not be convenient for you to follow me."

Han Mingxi was lying on the table with dissatisfaction, staring at Ye Li and accusing, "You... why didn't you say it was inconvenient when you wanted my information about Tianyi Pavilion? Now you want to dump me. You are a vain person!" Ye Li was speechless. She paid a corresponding price for the information about Tianyi Pavilion, but she didn't let him work in vain. Seeing that Ye Li didn't want to pay attention to her, Han Mingxi bit her nails and laughed, "What can happen in such a small place like Nanzhao? Isn't Jun Wei here to find Youluo Minghua? The news of the Saint of Southern Xinjiang is here with me. Otherwise, it's the Sick Scholar. I also know the whereabouts of the Sick Scholar, but he seems to be targeted by another group of people. Jun Wei should not mess with them. Or... Master Qingchen is missing, right?" Han Mingxi tilted his head and smiled innocently.

"The news about Tianyi Pavilion is indeed well-known." Ye Li sighed.

Han Mingxi smiled and said, "Does Tianyi Pavilion sell intelligence? There are only a few major events in the capital of Nanzhao recently. If we don't know about them, what are we doing here? So... which one do you want to deal with first, Jun Wei?" Ye Li looked at him steadily, and after a while she chuckled softly, "Do you know where Master Qingchen is?" Han Mingxi's eyes flickered, and he said with some dissatisfaction, "Do you really want to find him first? Jun Wei, I thought the Blue Sky Flower and the Netherworld Flower were more important to you." Ye Li said, "You can get things at any time, but if you don't find someone, they may not be intact when you find them." Han Mingxi propped up his chin and looked at her, "You want to know about Master Qingchen, but tell me what your relationship with him is?"

Ye Li shook her head and smiled, "You don't know about Xu Qingchen either. Otherwise, you wouldn't be negotiating terms with me now, right?"

Han Mingxi snorted and stared at her with a depressed look, "So do you want the news about the Saint of Southern Xinjiang? If not, I'll burn it."

"He is my brother." Ye Li replied. Han Mingxi frowned, looked him up and down for a long time and asked: "Brother? Are you Xu Qingbai or Xu Qingyan? In terms of age... you are more like Xu Qingyan, but in terms of personality, you are more like Xu Qingbai. But... no one has ever said that the sons of the Xu family know kung fu?" Ye Li smiled and said: "The intelligence of Tianyi Pavilion does not seem to be so reliable. Xu Qingfeng, the third son of the Xu family, is now serving in the army. Don't you know, brother Han?" Han Mingxi stared at her suspiciously, "Could it be that you are really from the Xu family?" Ye Li smiled and said nothing, neither admitting nor denying.

Han Mingxi paced back and forth in the room in a somewhat irritable manner, and from time to time he would mutter to Ye Li to vent his dissatisfaction, "You lied to me... You didn't come here to look for the Netherworld Flower, you came here to look for Xu Qingchen! Jun Wei, you lied to me..."

"Sir." An Er's voice came from outside the door. The door was pushed open from the outside. An Er glanced at Han Mingxi and said to Ye Li: "Sir, there is news."

Ye Li nodded, "Come in and talk."

In the room, Ye Li and An Er looked at Han Mingxi at the same time, but the always knowledgeable and tactful Young Master Feng Yue unexpectedly didn't show any reaction, as if he didn't understand the other party's desire for him to avoid the question. He just leaned back in the chair and ate his snacks. Ye Li waved helplessly at An San and said, "Forget it, just say it directly."

An San nodded and said in a deep voice: "Princess Anxi has come into contact with Master Qingchen today, or... someone related to Master Qingchen."

Ye Li frowned, "What do you mean?"

An San said, "Today, when Princess Anxi finally returned home, she was stained with some special spices. People in Southern Xinjiang do not like incense, so there is no special research on spices. But I don't know that in the Central Plains, even the same spice has many different requirements. For example, the Xu family's several sons, except for the third and fifth sons who do not use spices, the second son is used to plum fragrance, the fourth son prefers orchid fragrance, and because the son Qingchen is away all year round, the spices are all prepared by Madam Xu herself, and some medicines that are beneficial to the body are added, so there will be a very light medicine box. It is definitely not easy for ordinary people to distinguish, and it is even more difficult to imitate and mix it."

Ye Li frowned and asked, "Where has Princess Anxi been?"

"In the palace, the King of Nanzhao summoned Princess Anxi this morning. After leaving the palace, Princess Anxi went straight back home." An San said affirmatively.

Han Mingxi smiled curiously and asked, "Could Master Qingchen be in the palace?"

An San hesitated for a moment, frowned and said, "Princess Anxi's chance of seeing Master Qingchen in person is not great. Princess Anxi was in our sight from the time she entered the palace to the time she left, except when she met the King of Nanzhao. It was impossible for her to see Master Qingchen. Unless it was when she met the King of Nanzhao. And... after returning home, Princess Anxi sent more people to secretly search for Master Qingchen." Ye Li shook her head and said, "The King of Nanzhao would know my brother's identity. If something happened to my brother in Nanzhao now, it would not be good for him. So... my brother's chance of being in the palace is not great. That Xiang... should be him wanting to send us a message to tell us that he is relatively safe now."

An San was puzzled. "Since Master Qingchen was not in the palace, why did the news come from the palace? How did the spices that Master Qingchen brought with him end up in the palace?"

"Of course, it's because the other party may be someone in the palace. Even if not, he can still enter and leave the palace freely."

Han Mingxi shook his head lazily and said, "That's not right... Jun Wei. In Nanzhao, no one except the princess can enter and leave the palace freely. Including other princesses, of course, even this princess is no longer in Nanzhao." Ye Li glanced at him, "If there is no difficulty in the open, there is no difficulty in the dark?"

"Secretly?" they both asked in unison.

Ye Li frowned and asked, "Have you tracked down the assassins?"

An San nodded, "We found out, but we were a step too late. They were killed on a small mound two miles outside the city, and their bodies were left in an abandoned cave."

"Speak carefully."

"When we looked for their bodies, we found them in a hidden cave ten miles west of the city. But there were no signs of a fight, and although that place was not far from the capital, the road was very difficult to walk on, and there was nothing around. Even if the assassins wanted to escape, they should not have forgotten to flee in that direction. Fortunately, the hidden weapons that injured them were smeared with tracking scent in advance. It took us a whole night to find them. They must have been killed not long after leaving the city, and then the bodies were abandoned in that cave."

Ye Li rubbed his brows and asked thoughtfully: "Which direction were they silenced?"

"East."

"That is to say, they originally wanted to go east, but after being killed, the murderer threw the body to the west? What is there in the east?" Ye Li stood up, "Give me the map of the Nanzhao capital."

An San lowered his head and took out a thin piece of paper from his pocket and carefully spread it on the table. Han Mingxi poked his head and took a look, grinning: "A complete map of the capital of Nanzhao? There is such a thing. Jun Wei, you didn't need to go to Tianyi Pavilion to inquire about the news at that time, right?" Ye Li smiled and said: "More information means more safety. I have always cherished my life. Besides... I don't believe that Tianyi Pavilion can't make this map." This is not a defense map, but just a general city layout map. He took out a charcoal pencil and circled the palace on the map, the Anxi Princess Mansion, the place where Xu Qingchen disappeared, the place where the body was dumped, and the place where the mouth had been silenced. He looked up and asked: "What do you feel?"

Han Mingxi pointed at the drawing and said, "If you don't look at the place where the body was dumped and the princess's mansion, these places seem to be very close to the Saint Maiden Hall. By the way... if you don't look at this picture, you really can't tell that the Saint Maiden Hall is so close to the Imperial Palace." The Saint Maiden Hall is on a mountain five miles east of the capital. But if you count from the palace, plus the distance up the mountain. It takes at least ten miles to reach the Saint Maiden Hall. Ye Li pointed and lowered her head and said, "Ordinary people only think that the road from the Imperial Palace to the Saint Maiden Hall is not close, and the Imperial Palace is built on the mountain. The mountain behind the palace is steep and dangerous. It is not only difficult to get there from the mountain, but it will also take more time than going directly out of the city. So basically no one has noticed it. In fact, the straight-line distance between the Imperial Palace and the Saint Maiden Hall is less than two miles."

"Tunnel?" An San asked.

"Haven't we experienced the ability of the people in Southern Xinjiang to dig tunnels along the way?" Ye Li asked with a smile. The two of them thought of the mountain that was almost hollowed out at the same time, and they were silent.

"What did the founding king of Nanzhao think? The royal palace is still built?" Han Mingxi asked in confusion. In the history of the Central Plains, only temporary palaces or annex palaces were built on the hills. The real imperial palaces were all located in the center of the capital. They not only showed the dignity of the royal emperor, but also the majesty of the people. Ye Li replied indifferently, "The customs are different."

Han Mingxi saw through her perfunctory attitude at a glance, and glared at Ye Li unhappily for a long time. He found that Ye Li was still immersed in his own thoughts, and his face suddenly darkened. After two dry coughs to attract the attention of the two people in the room, Han Mingxi smiled and said, "You suspect that Master Qingchen is in the Saint Maiden Hall? It is well known that the Saint Maiden of Southern Xinjiang is pure and innocent. Men are not allowed to enter the Saint Maiden Hall, let alone hide men. If people know that you think so, believe me... you will be overwhelmed by the anger of the people of Nanzhao." Ye Li said indifferently, "It is really because it is well known, so it is more likely, isn't it?"

Han Mingxi rolled his eyes. "Then how can Master Jun Wei enter the Holy Maiden Hall, which is guarded like an imperial palace, and find Master Qingchen who is hiding somewhere unknown? If we fail to find him and you are discovered, we will really be beaten to death by the Nanzhao people."

"I don't plan to enter through the Holy Maiden Palace." Ye Li said.

Han Mingxi's face was filled with amazement and admiration, "So Young Master Jun Wei is planning to bravely break into the Nanzhao Palace? Brother Jun Wei, even if the small palace of Nanzhao is not even one-third the size of our Chujing's, you should not look down on them, okay? Don't forget... there will definitely not be any poisonous snakes in our Chujing's palace, but it may not be the case in Nanzhao." Ye Li smiled slightly, "You make it sound as if Young Master Fengyue has never been to the palace. I wonder who was bragging about someone who had visited the inner courtyards of various palaces a few days ago?" Han Mingxi was speechless. Somehow he began to silently regret bragging to Jun Wei about his past romantic history when he was bored on the journey some time ago.

"Even if you go in and find Master Qingchen, how are you going to get him out?" Han Mingxi asked, "As far as I know, Master Qingchen doesn't know any martial arts at all."

Ye Li frowned and said, "I need to think about this carefully." Breaking in by force would definitely not work. Even if the secret guards were strong enough to snatch people from the Nanzhao Palace, it would be troublesome to deal with the aftermath. It would be even more troublesome if outsiders knew that the attackers were from the Dingguo Palace. Seeing her frowning and thoughtful look, Han Mingxi smiled happily and said, "How is it? Do you need help?"

Ye Li looked at Han Mingxi and shook her head. She and Han Mingxi were just partners. Last time Han Mingxi had taken a lot of risks with her, and this time she couldn't drag him into the adventure no matter what.

Han Mingxi looked at her with a smile and said, "Don't refuse so quickly. Tianyi Pavilion is open for business after all. As long as Jun Wei can pay the bill, we can do more than just collect intelligence." Ye Li's heart moved, and he looked at Han Mingxi and asked, "What does Brother Han want?" Han Mingxi smiled proudly and said, "Xun Ya Pavilion, I want another 20% more." Ye Li said, "I thought Tianyi Pavilion liked real cash? You should know that no matter how much it is, whether it is the Xu family or me, we will give it." Han Mingxi looked at him aggrievedly, "Jun Wei and I are friends. How can friends take advantage of others in distress?"

Friends? Ye Li raised her eyebrows lightly, "Tianyi Pavilion is not good at these things, so I'd better not trouble Brother Han."

"Jun Wei is too polite." Han Mingxi smiled and said, "Although Tianyi Pavilion is not good at this, it is very familiar with the capital of Nanzhao. Compared with our friendship, Brother Han, don't you think Tianyi Pavilion is more trustworthy?" Ye Li frowned and thought for a long time before saying, "Then I'll trouble Brother Han. I will be responsible for the losses of Tianyi Pavilion afterwards. Of course, Xunya Pavilion's two components will remain the same."

"I said, Jun Wei is too polite." Han Mingqing sighed helplessly.

Ye Li smiled faintly and lowered her head without saying anything, thinking secretly in her heart that maybe she still needed Princess Anxi's help?

In the shimmering pearl light, the heavy stone door was opened. The woman in the golden dress was no longer leisurely as before, and her chaotic steps seemed to contain great anger, "Xu Qingchen!"

Xu Qingchen, who was resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, turned his head gently and calmly at the woman who was rushing over, frowned and said, "What's wrong?" The woman seemed to be very angry, and with a flick of her sleeves, she swept all the celadon teacups on the table to the ground, with a crisp and pleasant sound of breaking, "Tell me! How did they know you were here?!" Xu Qingchen shook his head and said lightly, "I can't even get out of here, how do they know this? What? Is someone bothering you?"

"How could you not know?! It must be you who spread the news. Tell me, what method did you use?" the woman asked, trying to control her anger.

Xu Qingchen shook his head and sighed, "You think too highly of me. I am just a weak scholar who is helpless, not a top-notch master who is hidden from view. Instead of thinking about these things, you might as well think about whether you have offended someone recently." The woman snorted and said, "How could I offend anyone? Apart from that woman in Anxi, my only sin in my life... hehe, it seems to be your adorable fiancée."

"I told you not to touch her." Xu Qingchen said in a deep voice.

The woman sneered, "Don't worry, your precious fiancée is fine. But... just because she's fine now doesn't mean she'll be fine in the future. I just wanted to scare her last time. Come to think of it... it seems the guards around her are pretty good." Xu Qingchen didn't care. "Are you talking about bodyguards? The daughters of famous families in the Central Plains always have a few bodyguards when they go out. It's nothing serious."

"You do trust her. Why don't we continue to see if her guards can protect her? Maybe they will fall in love with each other. Don't girls love heroes saving beauties the most?"

Xu Qingchen glanced at her and said, "If you have the time, you might as well tell me what happened to make you so angry."

When this matter was mentioned, the woman's face hidden under the mask couldn't help but twisted, and she said hatefully: "Someone threw the bodies of those assassins outside the Saint's Palace!"

Xu Qingchen was a little surprised, but soon he relaxed his brows, "Even if that's the case, it's nothing. Just hand it over to the Nanzhao royal family or the government to handle it."

"How can this be?!" the woman shouted, "Don't tell me you don't know. If someone knew that a body was dumped in the Saint Maiden Hall, Anxi would definitely take the opportunity to search the Saint Maiden Hall. Humph! Don't think I don't know. She has long wanted to reach out to the Saint Maiden Hall. But she doesn't have the qualifications!" Xu Qingchen reached out and took a book and opened it, saying, "You haven't told me yet. If people knew that the body was found in the Saint Maiden Hall, the people of Nanzhao would also doubt the sanctity of the Saint of Southern Xinjiang. The most important thing is, if you are given another year or two, you can still push this matter to Da Chu or Xiling, but now... you are not even ready to go to war with Da Chu."

The woman's eyes darkened, she stared at him gloomily and said in a deep voice: "You know too much, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Xu Qingchen nodded slightly, "Because you want to know more from me, right?"

"Not bad!" The woman admitted straightforwardly, "If you hadn't secretly helped Anxi, she would never have been able to beat me. Since you can help her, you can naturally help me, right?"

Xu Qingchen shook his head, "I won't help you."

"I'll make you willing!" The woman sneered. Xu Qingchen put the book down again and looked at her with pity, "You are not suitable for this at all. The saints of the Southern Border in the past generations are not suitable. Even if you are smarter than them, you are still not as good as Princess Anxi in governing the country." The woman's eyes flashed with anger, and she said coldly: "Who said I am not suitable? You also admit that I am smarter than Anxi, right?"

"You are just better at conspiracy than she is. But a country cannot be run by conspiracy alone. Besides... you are not even good at conspiracy."

"So what? At least you are in my hands now, right?" the woman said proudly. Xu Qingchen smiled faintly and said nothing. Looking at Xu Qingchen's calm and indifferent appearance, the woman suddenly felt very angry and said bitterly: "You look down on me!" Xu Qingchen frowned and said: "I don't look down on you, I just don't agree with your current behavior."

"I know! You just look down on me!" the woman screamed, "What do you know? Do you know what kind of life Anxi lived since she was a child? What kind of life did I live since I was a child? Why? Why was she born as a crown princess? Why did she have everything?"

"You are the Saint of Southern Border, and you are also respected by thousands of people." Xu Qingchen said.

"Haha... respected by everyone? I haven't seen my mother since I was three, and I've been all alone since I was five. I'm not allowed to talk to maids, go out to play, cry, see outsiders, or even fall in love. When I'm 28 years old, I still have to go to that damn holy place. Who wants to go to that damn place? Nanzhao is mine, everything is mine!" The woman screamed as if she suddenly collapsed.

Xu Qingchen shook his head. "The lives of the Saints of Southern Xinjiang are indeed worthy of pity. But I think that does not include you. No one has ever restricted your actions, right? Otherwise, how would you have the opportunity to meet King Li, and how would you have a grudge with Princess Anxi? In fact... the new Saint had already appeared two years ago, but you killed her. The Saint of Southern Xinjiang can live to the age of 28 at the latest, but in fact most Saints abdicate before the age of 25."

"Anxi even told you this?!" The woman stared at him. "It seems like she really trusts you."

"Princess Anxi and I are friends."

"Hmph!" The collapse just now seemed to be just an illusion, or it could be called a show. The woman regained her elegance in a moment, "What a good friend. I will send the heads of your friends and your fiancée to you." After saying that, the woman walked away.
