Chapter 457 Restrictions

This fight has gradually evolved into a huge crisis concerning the safety of the entire Daliang Dynasty!

Qin Shu couldn't help but speak, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice.

"Could it be that she... still wants the supreme throne?"

As soon as these words came out, the air around them seemed to freeze. After hearing this, everyone's breathing involuntarily paused for a moment. They were shocked by this amazing conjecture, and no one could react for a while.

The whole room fell into a dead silence, leaving only the shock and waves in everyone's heart.

Xixi felt that her mother's conjecture was not unreasonable. Although it was disgusting to say this, she did understand Anyueya. After all, she was a woman with an adult soul, and she was different from other women of this era.

Anyueya was a soul from thousands of years later. In her concept, there was no restraint of male superiority and female inferiority, let alone the idea that women could not be emperors.

Xixi didn't know what Anyueya did when she was alive, but she was sure that Anyueya must be very good at controlling people's hearts, otherwise it would be impossible to lay out so many things quietly.

To be honest, Qin Xixi admired Anyueya a little. She was able to successfully turn this pool of living water upside down, and she was able to do so many preparations quietly, and even pretended to be just dealing with the Qin family, but in fact she was hiding a greater ambition and plot.

An Yueya is indeed a powerful character. Her wisdom and courage make Xixi feel a little surprised.

However, Daliang is like a huge elephant, and An Yueya is just an agile cheetah. She wants to swallow Daliang in one bite. Is she really not afraid of bursting her stomach and choking to death?

Xixi silently complained in her heart, but Pei Xuanyi had already made a quick decision after this brief contemplation.

He said with a serious look.

"This matter is of great importance. We should have reported it to the emperor immediately. But considering the emperor's current physical condition, he cannot completely control his mind. Therefore, we need to think of a foolproof plan first. The first priority is to ensure Zhao Zemo's safety!"

After hearing this, Zhao Shuoer nodded without hesitation, expressing his agreement with Qin Qixuan's proposal.

"That's right, my elder brother must not be in any danger."

Zhao Shuo'er's voice was filled with unquestionable firmness and deep worry. "I know my mother. She is an extremely strong and fragile person. If anything happens to either my elder brother or me, she will definitely not be able to bear the blow. She would rather choose not to live alone!"

When she said this, her eyes were slightly moist, but she still held back her tears and did not let herself cry.

Qin Qixuan also nodded in agreement. He could understand that both the King of Jinnan and the Princess of Jinnan were strong-willed people, whether they were leading troops in battle or doing things as people.

Although Zhao Shuo'er and Zhao Zemo were brought up a little differently, their impulsive and reckless natures are similar to those of the Jinnan Wang and his wife.

"Indeed, we should give priority to rescuing Zhao Zemo." Qin Qixuan said in a deep voice, "But I am also a little worried. If we decide to find Xiaowu and he unfortunately falls into Anyueya's trap, how should we deal with it?"

His brows were furrowed, and he obviously felt very difficult about this problem.

Qin Shu had been listening to their discussion silently, but when she heard the name "Xiaowu", her heart suddenly tightened.

Although she did not participate in the previous discussion of the few people, she could feel a strong sense of urgency and crisis from their conversation.

She didn't know why Xiaowu was mentioned, nor did she know what Xiaowu had to do with this matter. However, she knew it was definitely not a good thing as soon as she heard it.

To be honest, Qin Shu subconsciously didn't want Xiaowu to take this risk. In her heart, Xiaowu was still a child and shouldn't bear such pressure and danger.

However, when she saw the serious and firm eyes of the people around her, she knew that her thoughts might be too selfish.

After all, this is not just a personal grievance, but has risen to the height of the safety of the family and the country. At this critical moment, everyone needs to sacrifice their personal interests and emotions for the overall situation.

Qin Shu sighed silently, her heart full of contradictions and worries. She understood that as a mother, she wanted to protect her children from any harm; but as a responsible citizen of Daliang, she also knew that sometimes sacrifices must be made for the greater good.

At this critical moment, she could only choose to trust the judgment of Pei Xuanyi and others, and pray that Xiaowu would return safely.

Xiao Xixi listened to Qin Qixuan's words, but said thoughtfully.

"I think there must be some kind of limitation on the insects used by Anyueya. If there are no restrictions, it would be terrible." She analyzed seriously.

"Besides, if she can really control others unscrupulously, then what are we playing for? We will all be controlled by Anyueya in no time!"

Pei Xuanyi found it funny after hearing this, but still nodded in agreement, "Xixi is right. If Anyueya can really control the emperor's consciousness directly, then she doesn't need to use such complicated and tortuous methods, or even use military force to achieve her goal. Maybe Anyueya can only give the emperor 'hints' within a certain range."

Qin Xixi felt that the little grandson understood her thoughts very well. Not only was she very satisfied, she continued excitedly.

"That's right, my little grandson is right. I think so too! Moreover, I have seen the worm on Anyueya's arm before. The worm is very long and survives by drinking Anyueya's blood. Therefore, Anyueya must pay a corresponding price for what she wants to do with the worm."

Qin Qixuan nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. He also understood what the two meant.

"In that case, Anyueya's worm does not have that special infiltration effect. Maybe it can only stimulate what is already in other people's hearts, but cannot really control it completely and let it act according to her wishes?"

If this is really the case, things are a little simpler than they thought.

If Xiaowu had a full understanding and made preparations in advance, it was not impossible for him to get close to the emperor...

Xixi thought about it for a while, then nodded hesitantly. She felt that An Yueya was able to do this not just because of the insect.

Xiao Xixi clearly remembered that in the book she had read in her previous life, An Yueya seemed to be a psychologist before she crossed over...
