Chang An smiled and blinked, "It will be fine. If it was really done by the Crown Prince, then Father's life will definitely be safe."
"You're right." Bei Mingxuan smiled at Chang'an, "You're really worried and confused."
Bei Mingxuan sighed and revealed a helpless smile, "But I'm still a little worried. Please accompany me to the Crown Prince's residence."
"No, I want to be alone for a while." Chang'an said, his eyes fell on the stone table.
Bei Mingxuan certainly knew what Chang An meant. "I'm worried about you being alone. Why don't I stay with you?"
"He definitely won't show up while you're here." Chang'an was certain of this. Otherwise, that person wouldn't have left so suddenly. "Don't worry, Bai Lu is here. Besides, I won't let anything happen to me."
As Chang'an expected, not long after Bei Mingxuan left, the man really came.
"You are not the same as before." An old and powerful voice.
Chang'an smiled as he looked at the old man who pushed the door open and entered the courtyard. "You are the same as before, arrogant and coming uninvited."
“!!!” The visitor was stunned, “Hahahaha.”
Chang'an looked at the visitor carefully. He was in high spirits, and his every move revealed the extravagance and arrogance brought about by the coupons of power, as well as the chaotic eyes soaked in desire and lust.
It’s him, the Emperor Dongfang Zong of Shijin Kingdom.
Such a Dongfang Zong made Chang'an think of how handsome and charming Dongfang Zong was when he was young, and how he had won the hearts of many young girls.
"Girl, the way you look at me is different." Dongfang Zong walked in front of Chang'an, "What are you thinking about? Do you think I'm charming?"
Changan listened to his words and sneered, "Look at the wrinkles on your face, they're charming, not scary. I'm thankful."
"How dare you speak of me like that? Aren't you afraid that I will chop off your head?" Emperor Shijin said angrily.
But at the moment when Shi Jinhuang finished speaking, he suddenly felt something cold on his neck.
He glanced sideways and saw that it was Chang'an, holding a long sword with the tip of the sword touching his skin.
"Are you still the same Gu Changan who hides when he sees someone, doesn't say anything, and just watches?"
Chang'an sneered, "I don't care who you are, how noble you are, or how despicable you are. In my territory, I am the only one who has the final say. Don't show off, otherwise, you will die miserably."
As Chang'an finished speaking, Shi Jinguo felt suffocated instantly. His face turned black and his eyes revealed surprise.
A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. He didn't know what kind of temper this girl Gu Changan had. If he really lost his life, it would be a loss and he would lose everything.
"Okay, you have the final say." Shi Jinhuang said with a smile, "I'm just an old man, what can I do to you?"
Chang'an had no intention of doing anything to him, and her action was just a warning.
"You old man, you are very capable." Chang'an sneered, "You can do such disgusting things as asking your own uncle to marry your own niece, but that's not considered a big deal."
"!!!" Shi Jinhuang was stunned, wondering how Gu Changan knew Dongfang Ge's true identity. Could it be that the old man Gu Xiong told him?
"What are you talking about?" The old emperor pretended to be confused.
"Your acting skills aren't that great. Don't try to take advantage of your age. I, Gu Changan, won't fall for that."
"How can you talk like that?" Shi Jinhuang's face turned unhappy. "After all, I'm your grandfather."
"Grandpa? No! I, Gu Changan, have never known what a grandfather is. What's more, you are an old man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere."
"..."How many times has this girl been ignored by that old guy Gu Xiong?
Shi Jinhuang narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking, "You should already know your true identity."
"Identity?" Chang'an looked at the Shijin Emperor and smiled brightly. "Crown Prince of the Southern Kingdom, daughter of Nangong Qiuya and Gu Qingfeng, ninth son of the Emperor of Shuzhou, Bei Mingxuan, and the legal wife of Prince Xuan. I don't know what true identity you are talking about.
As for the Gu family, the emperor has issued an edict that my name is no longer in the Gu family genealogy. Now my name is preceded by my husband's surname.
As for your true identity, I'm sorry, I don't want to admit it."
"Even if you don't recognize me, your flesh and blood belong to my Dongfang family." Shi Jinhuang was very domineering. "Even until you die, you are still the daughter of my Dongfang family."
"You're such a thick-skinned old man! Whatever you say is true, it's true." Chang'an said with a grin, "You sent someone from the Dongfang family to the Shuzhou Imperial Palace. Are you so sure that he will take that position?"
"Haha." Shi Jin Huang Dasheng laughed, "If he can do it, he is a member of my Dongfang family. If he can't do it, he is not. As for whether he can succeed, it depends on his luck."
"You're talking about yourself, you have such a big heart." Chang'an teased, "Are you really so open-minded?"
"It's not important." Shi Jinhuang's eyes revealed a strong interest. It was obvious that his attention was on Chang'an. "Because I thought of a better idea."
Changan noticed the look in Shijinhuang's eyes, "What do you want to use me for?"
"How can you say exploitation?" Shi Jinhuang frowned slightly, "That is, a grand undertaking.
As long as you agree, I promise that in the future, the ruler of Shijin Kingdom will be you, Dongfang Chang'an!"
"What a great temptation." Chang'an raised the corners of his lips, showing great interest.
Emperor Shijin, seeing Chang'an's greedy eyes for power, nodded with satisfaction, "The children of our Dongfang family should have ambitions."
"Ambition?" Chang'an thought of what Bei Mingxuan had said before: unifying the four kingdoms. Only after truly unifying the four kingdoms could all the people be fundamentally free from war, from separation from their loved ones, and from the separation of life and death. "You must unify the four kingdoms."
"yes!"
The brilliance in Shi Jinhuang's eyes disappeared in an instant.
He sighed, "It's just... I'm old. You don't know how much I hope that the unification of the four nations will be accomplished by my Dongfang Sect. You don't know how desperate I am. Even if God gives me another 500 years of life, I still feel it won't be enough."
"Oh?" Chang'an looked at Shi Jinhuang with great interest. "You are extremely greedy and ambitious. However, for someone of your age, such ambition is probably a luxury."
"Do you look down on me?"
Chang'an smiled faintly and said nothing, just looking at him.
"Why aren't you talking?"
"Why are you talking?"
"!!!" Shi Jin Huang sighed and said, "Ambition, this thing, can only be achieved if it lives in your heart. If you don't even dare to think about it, then you don't even have the qualifications to lose."
Chang An had all sorts of guesses in her mind, but she still needed the person in front of her to give her a clear answer. "Do you think your ambitions are related to me?"
