Zhu Yuyan said in a deep voice, "Young Master Chu, rest assured, this time, no one will plead for Shi Zhixuan."
Seeing this, Chu Qinghe smiled and said to Wanwan, "You've just recovered from your serious injuries, Wanwan, why don't you stay and rest with Empress Yin for a while? Later, the Bad Commander might come to visit again. If it's not necessary, it's best if you don't get involved. I'll tell you about the follow-up matters later."
Wanwan nodded in agreement after hearing what Chu Qinghe said.
A moment later, as Chu Qinghe and the others returned to the inner courtyard, Shuimu Yinji looked at Chu Qinghe and said, "It's rare to see you get involved in other people's grudges?"
Chu Qinghe said slowly, "Under normal circumstances, we would not interfere in this matter, but Shi Zhixuan will die in half an hour. Why not do such a favor?"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Bubai, Shuimu Yinji, and the others were all taken aback.
But the next second, based on the girls' understanding of Chu Qinghe, they knew exactly what he meant.
Lianxing asked in astonishment, "Brother-in-law, you poisoned Shi Zhixuan before?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe responded with a lazy "hmm" and said, "When Shi Zhixuan made his move at Yang Gong's treasure vault, he was almost intent on killing me. In other words, he really wanted to kill me. In that situation, do you think I would show any mercy? So I forcibly injected the poison into his body during the attack."
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "I was originally planning to come back now, and if Shi Zhixuan's attitude was good, I would punish him a little and then cure him of the poison. Who knew that such a thing would happen? Now I don't even know where he has gone. I can't possibly go all over Chang'an to find this guy just to cure the poison, can I?"
Qu Feiyan asked in confusion, "Since you've already poisoned Shi Zhixuan, why didn't you tell Wanwan and Empress Yin just now?"
Chu Qinghe, who sat down at the stone table, said unhurriedly, "Isn't the matter still unresolved? Moreover, Ning Daoqi is involved. What if something changes in the middle? After Shi Zhixuan dies, with the Yin Kui Sect's spies in Chang'an, they will probably be able to find Shi Zhixuan's body and the place where he died very soon. At that time, with Wanwan and Empress Yin's intelligence, they will naturally be able to guess the reason."
A businessman's soul is his business acumen; after years in business, some habits have become ingrained in his very being.
Chu Qinghe never makes guarantees he isn't certain of.
This applies to both matters and people.
When Ning Daoqi was mentioned, Yaoyue asked, "What do you think of Ning Daoqi's situation?"
Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. It's possible that Ning Daoqi was also in Chang'an City. When Yin Hou and Wanwan brought Shi Zhixuan back, Ning Daoqi happened to see them and then sneaked in. It's also possible that he knew beforehand that Shi Zhixuan was sealed in Yang Gong's Treasure Vault."
Qu Feiyan thought for a moment and said, "If it is the former, Shi Zhixuan has been frozen in Yang Gong's treasure vault. Even Empress Yin and we only saw him today. If Li Chunfeng and Ning Daoqi wanted to pass on orders, it would be impossible to pass on the message back and forth between the Great Qin Kingdom and the Great Tang Kingdom in just a few hours. It seems more like Ning Daoqi did it on his own."
"If it's the latter, then it's Li Chunfeng's doing. The previous Bad Commander said that Li Chunfeng had been keeping him in check. Could it be that Li Chunfeng also wants to subdue Shi Zhixuan and the Demonic Sect, so as to leave a backup plan in the Tang Dynasty and secretly monitor and control the Bad Commander?"
Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Jellyfish Yin Ji smiled and glanced at Qu Feiyan, saying, "You've improved; your analysis is quite comprehensive."
Faced with the praise from Jellyfish Yin Ji, Qu Feiyan proudly raised her head and said, "After all, I've been following you for so long, so I've learned a little bit."
Seeing Qu Feiyan with her hands on her hips and head tilted back, the girls smiled.
Lin Shiyin, standing nearby, asked in confusion, "If what happened before was at Li Chunfeng's behest, then everything makes sense. But if Ning Daoqi did it on his own, why would he do it? Could it be for the sake of Cihang Jingzhai?"
Qu Feiyan added, "Moreover, by saving Zhu Yuyan and the others today, you have disrupted Ning Daoqi's plans, which means you have offended Ning Daoqi. Will Ning Daoqi hold a grudge against you for this?"
However, after the girls discussed for a while, when they looked at Chu Qinghe, they found that Chu Qinghe had taken Huahua off his shoulder and placed her on the table to tease her.
Qu Feiyan was taken aback and asked, "Young Master, don't you care about Ning Daoqi at all?"
Chu Qinghe didn't even look up and said, "Why should I worry about other people's affairs?"
Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Dongfang Bubai and the other women all showed some confusion on their faces.
In response, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "This Great Tang Kingdom is the territory of the Bad Commander. No matter what Ning Daoqi's purpose is today, it is aimed at the Bad Commander, not us. The Bad Commander will naturally handle Ning Daoqi's matter, so why should we worry about it?"
Jellyfish Yin Ji glanced sideways and said, "Are you planning to proactively inform the Bad Commander about this?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Otherwise what? Are we supposed to search the whole world for that Ning Daoqi? Since we're in the Great Tang Kingdom, it's best to let the locals handle things. We can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor."
Finally, Chu Qinghe continued, "Moreover, you all said that Ning Daoqi is Li Chunfeng's man. If we make a move against Ning Daoqi, it will inevitably attract Li Chunfeng's attention. It would be better to let the Bad Commander take action himself."
"Anyway, having more debts is never a bad thing, and the Bad Commander won't mind such a thing."
