Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Even if she is controlled by someone, she can only...
The hot wind in June could not warm the suffocating atmosphere in the palace, nor could it warm the lifeless Luoyan City.
The people who stayed in the city had suffered from the shock and torture of the war and were very afraid of the secret guards who suddenly appeared in the city.
Moreover, the secret guards said they would send them to another place, but they were very resistant. Who knew if it was a lie that they could never return?
It was not until Jiang Daiyi brought up Yunqin's name and told them that she was Yunqin's sister that the people accepted their kindness.
After all, Yun Qin's reputation can stabilize the people's hearts better than that of a king. Moreover, his sister is here, which is enough to prove that these secret guards are indeed here to help them.
Although the Yun family is now considered to be people of Yan State, when they save people, they never only save the people of Yan State. In the eyes of the Yun family, the people of other countries are no different from the people of Yan State.
Jiang Daiyi followed the secret guards to settle the people of Luoyan City, and gave the prescription left by Yunqin to the secret guards, asking them to regulate the bodies of these Baixin according to the prescription.
Although this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution, in troubled times, we should do our best to help.
The secret guard heard the hidden meaning in Jiang Daiyi's words that she was about to leave, and hesitated, "Miss Yunyi, are you really not taking the secret guards left by the young master with you? If you do that, the young master won't know where you are."
Jiang Daiyi shook her head: "I will write a letter to my brother. You just need to take good care of the people. As for me, don't worry."
Before the young master left, he did give an order not to interfere in any of the girl's affairs, so the secret guard didn't say anything more afterwards.
Jiang Daiyi led a horse and left. After escaping the sight of the secret guards, she headed north without stopping.
The girl didn't get off the horse until they reached the edge of a deserted desert.
Her long skirt fluttered in the yellow sand as she entered the desert alone and stopped at a sunken sand pit. She raised her hand and sent a burst of internal force towards the center of the pit. After a period of sand sinking, a stone staircase suddenly appeared.
Jiang Daiyi walked down the stone stairs and entered a secret passage.
She skillfully opened the tinder to light the way ahead.
All the hostages in Tianque are here.
Although they had been rescued from Prince Li's tomb, Jiang Daiyi guessed that Tianque would not let them escape, so before Tianque took action, Jiang Daiyi hid them again.
As for the assassin who was restrained by these hostages, Jiang Daiyi looked back.
"Miss Jiang, will Master Yun be suspicious of you coming to see us like this?"
The assassins who had already left Tianque did not dare to act rashly these days and had been staying with their loved ones in this desert. Jiang Daiyi would regularly send her own people to buy daily necessities and deliver them here.
Jiang Daiyi dispelled their concerns: "He won't find out, don't worry."
Qian Xiang was injured and the Tianque assassins scattered. Now is a good time for everyone here to leave.
Jiang Daiyi gave them two options: "You have two choices now. One is to hide your identity and flee with your family. The other is to seek refuge with General Song Lai of Yan State. General Song is a generous man. If you can find a way to join his camp, I believe your current predicament can be easily resolved."
"If you have the ability, it will be your good fortune to be promoted to a marquis or a general in the future."
The assassin was a little puzzled. Speaking of private soldiers, the Yun family actually had quite a few. Given the current situation, it would be most appropriate for them to join Yun Qin.
But Song Lai was loyal to King Xianglin, who was not as diligent and caring as the rumors said. His reputation of being virtuous and benevolent was just a publicity stunt created by the Yun family to show the people.
The truly virtuous and benevolent person is Yun Qin, so it is better to join Yun Qin than to join Song Lai.
Jiang Daiyi guessed their thoughts and warned them, "Yun Qin is very suspicious. He has repeatedly tested and suspected me. If you go to Yun Qin, it will be more dangerous than staying in Tianque. Besides, the people of the Yun family are extremely cautious. You won't last a day there before they will investigate you thoroughly."
"Although Song Lai's army is under the command of Prince Xianglin, they are loyal troops. Even if Prince Xianglin falls in the future, the Yun family will not ignore them."
Song Lai is not as suspicious as Yun Qin. He only cares about loyalty, regardless of identity or past. He just has a bad temper. Compared with Yun Qin, who is only gentle on the surface, his temper is much better.
The assassin bowed and said, "Thank you Miss Jiang for pointing out the way."
Jiang Daiyi is no longer worried about them. What she is worried about now is her own parents.
"My relatives were taken away by the young master himself. Do you know where they are?"
The assassin said worriedly, "We really don't know. I'm afraid he's still in the young master's hands. But a few days ago, there was news that the young master was seriously injured. We don't know if he can make it. If he can't, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find Miss Jiang's relatives."
Jiang Daiyi felt a little uneasy. She had fallen out with Qian Xiang a long time ago, and she hadn't seen them for almost a year. A bad premonition spread in her heart. If Qian Xiang killed her relatives out of anger, she would definitely cut him into pieces.
It seems that we still have to find Qianxiang.
Otherwise she would never be able to do things freely.
Jiang Daiyi said to the people present: "I still have to go find my relatives. Please be careful in the days ahead. We will say goodbye now."
Luoyan City is empty, so Yunqin's secret guards will not stay here. Jiang Daiyi can go in openly without worrying about being discovered.
Jiang Daiyi returned to Luoyan City again because she wanted to figure out where Qianxiang was going based on the last place he disappeared.
After half a moment's tracking, Jiang Daiyi found him in a pavilion fifteen miles away from Luoyan City.
There was an old man with a weak breath sitting in the pavilion. Perhaps others could not recognize him, but Jiang Daiyi could tell at a glance that it was indeed Qianxiang.
Jiang Daiyi stepped into the pavilion, acting as if she didn't recognize him. She sat opposite Qian Duo, as if she was tired from traveling and wanted to rest for a while.
Qian Xiang is good at disguise. Yun Qin's secret guards must have fallen for his trick and lost him, otherwise they would not have allowed Qian Xiang to act so freely outside.
When Qian Xiang, who was disguised as an old man, saw Jiang Daiyi, he almost couldn't hold back his expression. He clenched his fists again and again before he calmed down.
This little liar almost took half his life!
Yun Qin relied on Jiang Daiyi to reveal the internal information of Tianque to him, and colluded with others to hurt him to this point. As long as he is alive, he will get revenge sooner or later.
He originally wanted to take Jiang Daiyi with him to die, but after thinking about it, he realized that if he did that, he would really have nothing.
Qian Xiang endured for a long while, and finally spoke tentatively, imitating the old man's voice perfectly: "Where are you going, young lady, in such a hurry?"
Jiang Daiyi didn't answer Qian Xiang's words, but asked with a slightly concerned tone: "Are you feeling unwell? I have a brother who is a little proficient in medicine. Why don't you let him take a look at you?"
Qian Xiang was frightened when he heard the word "brother". He always felt that Jiang Daiyi would be like when they were children, gently calling him "brother" while stabbing him with a knife.
I wish she could stab Yunqin someday.
Qian Xiangxu coughed and said, "Don't bother me. This is what happens when you get older. I'll be fine after a while."
Jiang Daiyi had finally come across such an opportunity. If she didn't take revenge, it would be a shame for her two-faced personality. She grabbed Qian Xiang's wrist, pulled him away, and there was a strong kindness on her gentle face.
"Don't worry, my brother is nearby. I'll take you to find him."
The voice that belonged to that girl was as clear as a lotus. If Qian Xiang had not known her true appearance, if he had just met her, he would have really thought that she was a very good and kind person.
Qianxiang was extremely weak and his internal strength was almost gone.
Fighting Yun Qin at this moment would undoubtedly be courting death, but the girl's grip was surprisingly strong, making it impossible for him to break free.
Jiang Daiyi said, "Don't worry, my brother will definitely cure you and won't let you down."
Seeing that he couldn't break free, Qian Xiang blurted out a lie: "Is that gentle man over there your brother?"
Yun Qin was in the King's City of Yanling at this time, and must be discussing the war with King Xianglin. How could he appear here?
Even though she knew it was Qian Xiang's plan to divert attention, Jiang Daiyi still turned around to look.
She felt as if the spring sun had pierced her eyes, and as if subconsciously she let go of Qian Xiang's wrist, and asked curiously, "Where is it?"
In just such a gap, Qianxiang disappeared without a trace.
However, relying on her internal strength, Jiang Daiyi had already heard the approximate direction where Qianxiang disappeared. After all, Qianxiang was like a half-disabled person before he recovered his strength and could not escape from her palm.
…
The city of King Yanling.
The royal palace is decorated in an extremely luxurious way. Ordinary people may be shocked at first sight, but they will feel disgusted or even bored after looking at it for a long time.
Yunqin looked at the man on the throne, who was licentious and immoral.
Every time I heard another word of what he said, my desire to skin him alive became more apparent.
If you want to get involved with his sister, you have to see how many lives he has.
The young man Junya's face darkened almost visibly. He had questioned Jiang Daiyi's identity earlier and scared her with his harsh tone. In order to cheer Jiang Daiyi up, he wanted to take her out of the house to watch fireflies in the suburbs, but he found that she had a fever halfway, so he gave up the plan and had to return home halfway.
Thinking back, Yun Qin felt a gaze following Jiang Daiyi at that time, and it must be Prince Xianglin.
Apart from this, he could not think of any chance for Prince Xianglin to meet Jiang Daiyi.
Prince Xianglin looked at the silent Yunqin. He seemed to be smiling, but that smile was beautiful and dangerous. As if he had finally come to his senses, he said calmly, "I'm afraid she hasn't been doing well lately. My sister is so concerned about the people that even I don't know where she has gone."
The boy's words were too obvious to be evasive, and Prince Xianglin was completely unconvinced. "Everyone knows that Yun Qing and your sister are inseparable. You protect her like a treasure in your palm. Now, by such a coincidence, I threatened to take her as my concubine, and then she disappeared?"
Yun Qin disagreed: "My sister is also a member of the Yun family. She wants to do her part for the people of the world. As her brother, I am very pleased."
Yunqin has placed his own secret guards around Prince Xianglin. The secret guards will report any thoughts to Yunqin immediately. Prince Xianglin's idea of taking Jiang Daiyi as his concubine did not come up today.
This is also the reason why Yun Qin easily agreed to Jiang Daiyi's request to leave when she was picking herbs in the mountains outside Luoyan City. And if nothing unexpected happens, she will meet another person, Qian Xiang.
Prince Xianglin ordered Yunqin, "Find your sister within three days and bring her back to the royal city. I must see your sister in person soon."
Yun Qin scoffed, "Your Majesty, I've been saying that I haven't been doing well lately."
Not only will it not work in the near future, it will not work in the future either.
King Xianglin did not expect Yunqin to be so disobedient to him. Even though he had helped him ascend the throne before, it was not enough for a king to tolerate his rudeness.
Prince Xianglin said solemnly, "Yunqin, do you intend to disobey my order?"
Yun Qin looked at King Xianglin, and the previous respectfulness on Qingjun's face was completely gone.
The ministers around him all knew that the reason why Yan State could still prosper even though its military strength was inferior to his was all thanks to the Yun family.
If the Yun family rebels or joins the army of another country's monarch, it will be bad news for the State of Yan.
Yun Qin went out to lobby for many years before he was able to calm the monarchs of various countries from thinking of going to war, and gave the State of Yan a chance to catch its breath.
Now that the king has made it clear that he wants to take Yun Yi as his concubine, it is a good thing. Moreover, the king is already dissatisfied with Yun Qin's achievements surpassing his own. Yun Qin takes the opportunity to hand over his sister to King Xianglin and let her whisper in his ear. Who knows, the Yun family may be reused by the king again.
But when the ministers looked at Yun Qin's expression, they found that he didn't seem to want Yun Ai to enter the palace.
"Master Yun, it is a great honor for Miss Yun to enter the palace to serve the king. Please don't be too stubborn."
"Yes, the king is testing your intention. If you agree, it will be enough to prove your loyalty to the king."
“…”
The ministers changed their tune and sang the same tune, as if they were really thinking of a solution for the Yun family.
Yun Qin's eyes were indifferent, and no one knew what he was thinking. After the noisy discussions finally stopped, he finally let go.
"My sister is traveling this time without any secret guards accompanying her. It may take some time to find her. Your Majesty, please be patient."
When King Xianglin saw Yun Qin loosen his grip, he thought that Yun Qin was trying to convince him, and he put on a smug look on his face. No matter how powerful a figure he was, he still had to be inferior to him.
Yun Qin had no intention of staying any longer and said, "I will go look for my sister first. Since Your Majesty has no other instructions, I will take my leave."
Prince Xianglin waved his hand casually. Yunqin always had a good temper on his face, which made Prince Xianglin ignore the darkness in his bones. Naturally, he could not see the murderous intent hidden in Yunqin's eyes, which seemed so thick that it could turn into substance.
The long dark green leaves fell lightly, brushing across Jiang Daiyi's eyebrows.
She followed the direction where Qian Xiang disappeared, but she didn't dare to follow him too closely. She had to observe Qian Xiang in the dark. Her relatives in this world were still in his hands.
Jiang Daiyi followed him secretly for three days with great patience. She felt that she might be able to find her relatives through Qian Xiang.
It is also possible that in order to avoid being hunted down by Yunqin's secret guards, he would go to the place where her relatives were hiding.
After all, that place is absolutely secret, otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long to find.
Qian Xiang walked into a farmhouse, which was drafty on all sides.
Fortunately, it was summer, June, and the heat was scorching, and the leaking air just happened to relieve the heat.
Jiang Daiyi hid in the dark, originally thinking that Qian Xiang would not find her. Unexpectedly, just one afternoon, Qian Xiang sat on the stone bench in the yard and said quietly, "Come out, what are you hiding for?"
He still used the old man's face. Jiang Daiyi walked into the dilapidated courtyard and sat opposite Qian, still pretending not to recognize him.
"Old man, how did you find me?"
Qian Xiang did not answer her, but asked: "Why have you been following me?"
Jiang Daiyi replied with the same answer as before, smiling: "You left without saying goodbye in the pavilion, and I have been worried about your health."
As he spoke, he placed his hand on Qian Xiang's wrist and pretended to take his pulse.
Qian Xiang looked at her calmly and suddenly said, "Have you pretended enough?"
"Haven't you finished acting in front of Yunqin? Why are you acting in front of me?"
The skin on Qianxiang's face relaxed, and his old face instantly turned into another sinister and handsome face. He wanted to pull his hand back, but Jiang Daiyi held it tightly.
Jiang Daiyi's soft, jade-like face reflected the light. She whispered quietly, her tone tinged with danger, "Brother Qianxiang, you couldn't help but reveal yourself so soon. If your brains were half as good as your martial arts skills, Yunqin wouldn't have tricked you into this."
Qian Xiang looked at her and asked, "You followed me all the way here just to tell me this?"
Jiang Daiyi said coldly, her hand pinching his wrist bones until they creaked: "Where are my relatives?"
Qian Xiang smiled and said, "So it's because of this matter. I thought that when you and Yun Qin teamed up to kill me, you had already put the lives of your relatives aside."
Jiang Daiyi was very patient for the last time, and said in a soft but threatening tone: "Brother Qianxiang——"
Where are they?
These words were stuck in my throat before I could even utter them.
"Sister." A voice that could not be distinguished between joy and anger came from Yun Qin and rang in Jiang Daiyi's ears.
At this time, she was still holding someone's hand and calling him brother.
This scene was clearly seen by Yun Qin who came rushing over.
Yun Qin's eyes were cold and indifferent, and the darkness in them seemed to be able to penetrate his amber eyes at any time.

The author has something to say: Sister: It’s just a casual affair, brother, don’t take it seriously.
