Why do the people of the tribe worship the Holy Maiden as a deity?
She felt it was necessary to ask clearly so she could find out how much longer she could continue faking it.
As long as she has the jade pendant, she can continue to impersonate someone else.
"No one has ever seen a real moon-worshiping ceremony; I have only seen it in the books of my ancestors."
"When the Holy Maiden drips her blood onto the Dragon-Snake Jade, the jade pendant will shine with golden light, and Heaven will bestow blessings upon it."
Chen Yunniang then asked, "Can only the blood of the Holy Maiden make the jade pendant shine so brightly?"
"Why can't others?"
This reminded her of Su Yujiao saving Lu Ziqian with her blood. Could Su Yujiao's blood really be special?
However, the last time she sent Granny Sun to the General's Mansion for medical treatment, Su Yujiao fed the sick child blood in public, but it didn't seem to work.
Did Su Yujiao tamper with the blood when feeding the blood?
The wizard answered her question with a proud look: "That's natural. The Dragon Serpent Jade has a spirit, and only the Holy Maiden can truly bring it to its full potential."
Chen Yunniang really wanted to ask what the true purpose of the jade pendant was, but she thought about it and held back, lest she say too much and make a mistake.
As long as she obtains Su Yujiao's blood, she can live forever as the noble Holy Maiden of the Southern Frontier Kingdom.
Perhaps we can use the power of the Southern Frontier Kingdom to capture Su Yujiao, imprison her by our side, torture and take revenge on her, and also use her blood at any time to solidify our own identity.
As for that jade pendant, it won't be hard to find it in the General's Mansion!
Anyway, apart from her and the people of the Southern Frontier Kingdom, no one knew that the jade pendant was the precious Dragon-Snake Jade.
"Your Highness, tell me the details of the moon-worshiping ceremony. I'm afraid I'll make a mistake and become a laughing stock."
"Yunlan, from now on you will serve the Holy Maiden."
"yes."
The moon-worshiping ceremony was a great success. The people of southern Xinjiang had a new holy woman, and their faith soared to unprecedented heights. They knelt on the ground for a long time without getting up.
Chen Yunniang watched as thousands of people kowtowed to her, and even the King and Queen of the Southern Frontier Kingdom knelt devoutly at her feet, stroking her boots.
Her vanity was satisfied like never before; this was the taste of power.
She enjoys the feeling of being at the pinnacle of power.
She wanted everyone to submit to her.
Therefore, she will remain a saint for a long time.
Su Yujiao could only become her blood bag!
"Your Highness, you said I could make any request?"
"Please feel free to ask, Holy Maiden."
"Could you help me catch someone?"
"That bitch stole my man, killed my brother, and insulted my parents. I will never forgive her."
"I want to capture her and torture her severely to avenge myself."
Nan Sheng spoke as if it were a very ordinary matter: "Anyone who disrespects the Holy Maiden shall die!"
"Who is that person?"
Where are you?
"Su Yujiao is in Lu Ziqian's military camp."
"She's Lu Ziqian's wife, do you dare arrest her?"
Nan Sheng was taken aback. Lu Ziqian's wife?
That's right. The man the Holy Maiden admires is General Lu. The woman who stole General Lu is none other than Lu Ziqian's wife.
"Don't worry, Holy Maiden. The Great Ming Kingdom has spies from our southern border. Capturing a woman is a piece of cake."
Chen Yunniang cautioned, "It's best not to let Lu Ziqian know, otherwise there will be endless trouble."
"I don't want to start a war between two countries because of a despicable person; that would be irresponsible to my people."
"If the result is war between the two countries, I would rather not seek revenge."
"The Holy Maiden truly loves her people like her own children."
After Nan Sheng left, Xiao He secretly gave Chen Yun Niang a thumbs up.
"Miss is indeed more astute."
"This servant cannot wait to see that vile woman Su Yujiao become your prisoner."
"I will personally torture her until she is in a state of wishing for death, and give Miss a good venting of her anger."
Xiaohe was a little carried away. Now that Chen Yunniang had become a saintess, her status had naturally risen as well. Even the female guard named Yunlan had to bow to her when she saw her.
He was so proud of himself!
Seeing Xiaohe's smug attitude, Chen Yunniang couldn't help but give her a nudge.
Be careful what you say and do!
"Don't die without even knowing how you died."
"If you want to die, go by yourself. Don't drag me down with you."
Xiaohe immediately stopped smiling, knelt down and slapped herself: "This servant knows she was wrong."
"Get up."
As night fell and snow fell, Su Yujiao had just fallen asleep when a series of footsteps suddenly sounded outside her tent.
"General, the enemy has launched a night attack!"
Lu Ziqian got up, hurriedly put on his armor, and left the tent.
"Mo Shu, take a few men and stay behind to protect the young mistress."
"Ink painting, come with me."
"yes."
Hearing the howling and the sound of the city gate being rammed outside, Su Yujiao could no longer sleep and had no choice but to get up and go to the wounded camp to check on the situation.
Mo Shu was very responsible; he followed her wherever she went.
"Don't follow me, I'm going to the outhouse."
Mo Shu didn't speak, but stood guard outside the makeshift hut.
Before she arrived, there was no need for latrines here; the soldiers could simply go into the woods and relieve themselves.
It was only after she arrived that Lu Ziqian instructed people to set up a simple hut using a tent.
He couldn't very well let his wife go into the woods, even if she did, it wouldn't be safe.
Mo Shu had been waiting outside the tent for quite a while, so he tentatively asked, "Young Madam?"
No one responded from inside!
"Young Madam?"
Mo Shu called out again, but still no one responded.
He sensed something was wrong and suddenly lifted the curtain, only to find no one inside.
Mo Shu's expression changed drastically. He immediately used his lightness skill to stand on the top of the tent and check the surrounding situation.
As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the farther you can see. Soon he saw two furtive figures carrying a person into the woods a hundred paces away.
"Oh no, chase after them!"
Mo Shu relentlessly pursued him. His subordinate handed him a bow and arrows, and he fired two arrows in quick succession. One arrow missed its mark, while the other struck the man in black in the arm.
Soon, the forest grew deeper and deeper, and the tall trees blocked out the moonlight, making it pitch black in the dense woods, which greatly increased the difficulty of the capture.
Mo Shu could only rely on his hearing to distinguish the other person's footsteps.
Soon, the footsteps disappeared; the person was lost!
Mo Shu looked at the empty forest, his face ashen, never before had he felt so panicked.
If anything were to happen to the young mistress, how would he explain it to the general?
Soon, his subordinates caught up with him, two of whom brought torches.
The torch was lit, and the surroundings were instantly illuminated.
"Search, dig three feet into the ground, find the young mistress."
"yes."
"Lord Mo, there is a cave here."
Mo Shu walked over in a few steps and found a mountain wall covered with dense vines. After parting the vines, he found a cave that was as tall as a person.
"Torch".
Mo Shu used a torch to illuminate the area around the cave and discovered messy footprints and a drop of blood at the entrance.
"Chase."
The group chased after each other through the cave, which was quite long. It took them about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to walk out of the cave.
"Lord Mo, this cave actually leads outside the city!!"
