Chapter 591: The Kapok Quilt's Playful Collapse
Ling Cang's expression was changing rapidly at this moment, and a terrifying aura emanated from his silence.
Muqian didn't dare to speak, for fear of angering the lion and getting bitten to death.
Their silence made Su Nuan anxious. She couldn't keep hiding in the tea room. The water was about to boil. Couldn't they just speak up quickly?
Fortunately, Ling Cang broke the silence and asked again, "Your blood can also open those treasures, why don't they look for you?"
Mu Mian said angrily, "I came to you because I didn't want to become a blood bank. I can help you get the throne, and I can also help you open all the treasures in the palace and take out everything stored inside for you to use."
"Is it too much to ask for these conditions in exchange for the position of queen?"
Ling Cang raised his eyelids, a mocking smile appearing on the corner of his mouth, "Queen? Are you worthy?"
Mu Mian placed his hands on the table and shouted desperately, "How am I unworthy? Without me, you can't be emperor. You will only die here and rot here."
Ling Cang smiled slightly, appearing very calm. This calmness alone could piss off an impatient person.
He laughed and said, "Did I say I wanted to be emperor?"
If your own body cannot pass on your family line, what is the point of being an emperor? Just making wedding clothes for others?
Moreover, in today's world, you can't get a high position by competing in the capital. It is better to develop the north well and live freely.
If Kapok had come a year earlier, I would have still wanted to seek justice, but now, I have seen so much birth, old age, sickness and death, and I have more respect for life. I just want to live a peaceful and stable life with my family.
Mumian gnashed his teeth and said, "I wouldn't have come to you if I had known. Who would have thought that such a great general would be such a coward."
Ling Cang smiled instead of getting angry, "Sorry, I disappointed you."
Su Nuan was the most protective of her children. Seeing Ling Cang being scolded like that, she clenched her fists in anger, and ended up crushing the teacup into pieces with a snap.
When Xue heard the sound, she quickly got up and went to the tea room. She said with a worried look on her face, "Are you okay? I'll go call him back."
As soon as Su Nuan heard this, she knew that Xue had misunderstood, and she quickly raised her finger as a gesture to keep quiet.
Then he whispered, "Mom, I can hear what they are saying. That woman scolded my husband, and I'm a little angry."
Xue's frown relaxed and she smiled, "I thought it was a big deal. Don't worry about being scolded or even beaten."
Su Nuan looked at Xue in astonishment. That was her own son. Was this really okay?
Xue took Su Nuan's hand and said with a smile, "Just protect yourself."
Su Nuan nodded obediently. The Ling family really gave her endless love.
At this time, the water boiled and Su Nuan quickly made tea.
Xue said, "I'll take it out. You continue listening."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, Mom, be careful with the hot water."
Mrs. Xue nodded and left the tea room with the hot tea.
Su Nuan continued to watch the two people next door. Talking to her mother-in-law just now did not affect her observation.
Ling Cang looked at Mu Mian with a half-smile and continued to ask, "What's inside your treasure? Can people go in?"
Mumian's eyes flashed, "It's not big, I can fit in."
Ling Cang smiled and said, "Really? Then I'll trust you if you go in."
Mu Mian frowned and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I won't come out after I go in?"
Ling Cang spread his hands and said, "Whether you come out or not, I won't lose anything. What should I be afraid of?"
Su Nuan's eyes showed anticipation. She had never seen anyone else enter the space. Would they disappear directly like herself?
However, after waiting for a long time, the kapok didn't disappear. She sat down dejectedly and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "I can't get in."
Ling Cang's eyes showed understanding, "It's just as I thought, you are not from the royal family."
Mumian's face changed, but she did not refute.
At this moment, Ling Cang glanced around, grabbed Mu Mian's wrist with lightning speed, and took off the jade bracelet on her wrist.
Kapok screamed, "What are you doing? Give it back to me."
Ling Cang took out a dagger with his other hand and pointed it at Mu Mian's throat, forcing Mu Mian not to move.
Su Nuan looked at Ling Cang speechlessly. This guy really had no sympathy for women at all.
The voice of the Space Spirit came, "Hey, your big wolf dog is going crazy. Tsk tsk, I can't believe he can be so fierce to women. Why isn't he fierce to you?"
Su Nuan, “…”
Maybe I'm even more vicious than him.
Ling Cang looked at the jade bracelet and said, "This is the former queen's jade bracelet. It seems that you are from the former queen's mother's family."
"Something like this doesn't require bloodline activation. I think you've almost squandered everything stored in it."
The space spirit flew around the jade bracelet. It couldn't help but grab the jade bracelet and pull it, but it didn't move.
Ling Cang felt the pulling force on the jade bracelet and looked at Mu Mian suspiciously.
The space spirit quickly held Ling Cang's hand and said, "It's me, Xiao Ling. I want this jade bracelet to merge with my master's space treasure."
Ling Cang looked around but didn't see the Space Spirit. He tried to think to himself, "Will this thing be useful to Nuan Nuan?"
The space spirit replied: "It works. How about this, you throw away the jade bracelet later, I will catch up with it, collect it, and then throw out a similar bracelet to replace it."
Ling Cang nodded secretly, "Okay."
Mu Mang was so anxious at this moment that he shouted, "Give it back to me quickly! If it breaks, you can forget about becoming emperor."
Ling Cang curled his lips and said with a smile: "I now suspect that you are a spy sent by the capital. You are using this thing to fool me and deceive my mind."
"Once I agree to cooperate with you to seize the throne, you will tell the people in the capital that I am planning a rebellion."
"The officials sent from the capital will simply wipe out the northern land and kill us all."
Mu Mian was dumbfounded. Wasn't what she said clear enough? How could he doubt her?
Ling Cang continued, "I remember that when this kind of treasure is broken, the contents inside will burst out. Do you think this will happen?"
Muqian rushed forward in a hurry, but was blocked by the sharp blade.
She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. She begged, "Give it back to me and we can talk it over."
Ling Cang chuckled, "I want to see if anything can be found here."
After saying that, he threw the jade bracelet out the door...
"No--" Mu Man screamed and rushed out the door, not caring about the sharp blade cutting her neck.
However, she only saw the green jade bracelet being broken into countless pieces and disappearing onto the lawn.
Only two large pieces lay on the ground, proving its existence.
Ling Cang snorted coldly, "There's nothing in the bracelet, it's fake."
Mu Man rushed over and knelt on the ground to pick up the bracelet fragments. She looked around and indeed did not find anything else.
At this moment she finally broke down, "Ah—Ling Cang, I'm going to kill you!"
She staggered to her feet and pounced on Ling Cang, wanting to die with him.
However, Ling Cang was no pushover. He raised his foot and kicked Mu Man away.
He looked down at me with a cold and sidelong glance, "Fool, I never thought of becoming an emperor."
