A few days ago, Xia Yixin had such a dream that she felt strange every time she saw Qi Yu. Later, she couldn't help but steal a kiss from him and panicked.
Unable to stay at home, he went out for a stroll and happened to run into the abbot of Dongshan Temple.
Unexpectedly, the old abbot immediately asked, "Are you a person from outside the secular world? Why are you here?" This surprised Xia Yixin, who had previously not believed much in metaphysics.
At the same time, I was also a little curious.
So she drew a fortune stick, wanting to ask about her and Qi Yu, but the host didn't answer her that day and told her to come back the next day.
The elderly abbot, his hair and beard both white, placed the fortune slip she had drawn yesterday on the table and smiled.
“This is a moderately auspicious divination for you. I didn’t answer you yesterday because the karmic consequences hadn’t yet arrived. Now that the karmic consequences have arrived, you don’t need to be nervous. You and he are destined to be entangled in your past lives. Although you are a person from outside the secular world, you will surely have a good outcome here. Moreover, you are connected by blood. That child is very good. He will help you reunite. So as long as you overcome the tribulation, the road ahead will be smooth.”
So, does she and Qi Yu have a happy ending?
Xia Yixin secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What about the child? What will become of my son?"
The old abbot smiled and stroked his beard, reassuringly saying, "Don't worry, benefactor, he has his own karma. Although there are dangers, he will surely escape."
Just as Xia Yixin was about to ask something else, a soft sound came from the yard. She was startled and opened the door to find that a flowerpot in the yard had broken. A strange sense of foreboding washed over her.
Sure enough, the system notified, "Ding, the male supporting character's happiness value has decreased by 50! Current completion rate is 25%, wow, what did you do, host!"
at the same time.
Qi Yu is not a fool.
He gleaned two things from her words.
The first thing is that her son is still alive, so the portrait and the buried child might be fake.
The second thing on her mind was the child's father, and that the man might still be alive.
She lied to him.
It felt like being drenched in ice water from head to toe.
This time, Qi Yu was not angry, but extremely calm. He returned to the Eastern Depot and was about to send someone to investigate her.
Another piece of news came even faster.
"Master, when we were searching for the escaped bandit leader, we found out that another group of people were helping them. Although we didn't catch those people, we did catch a messenger."
Even the most meticulous plans can have flaws.
Xia Mingyu, who was finishing up in the palace, felt a jolt of fear when he received the news that Lefulai's tea shop had been shut down.
When he hurriedly changed his clothes to leave the palace to save people, he didn't expect to enter a blank space when he landed.
Having read some of the knowledge, and having been here before when he was a spirit, he immediately realized that this was actually the main space!
Only the supreme deity has the ability to do this.
"God, come out!" With a thought, his surging golden spiritual power instantly caused the entire main space to tremble.
The main god immediately appeared in a panic, "No, no, no, oh my, why do you two, father and son, resort to violence at the slightest disagreement?"
Mingyu didn't waste any words with him. "Let me go back, or I'll destroy this place."
The main god looked miserable. "It's not that I don't want you to leave, but you've violated the rules. Although you are very powerful, this is a punishment plane. You changed one of the main quests and you're still alive, which is already considered lucky. The remaining trials must be endured by her personally. Otherwise, the rules will punish her, not you."
Seeing that the young boy was still unconvinced, the God of War earnestly advised, "Don't you believe in your mother? Her determination and perseverance are stronger than you think. Moreover, don't forget what you saw before. Some programs had already begun when she entered the system."
The murderous intent in Xia Mingyu's eyes gradually faded. He was still just a child under ten years old. He clenched his fists in anger and said, "Where is that guy, the main system? I want to see it."
If Lu Yan is an existence that transcends the system, then Xia Mingyu is a product of paradox. His abilities are even superior to Lu Yan's in some respects. Apart from temporarily trapping him, the main system has no other way.
Furthermore, this child is essentially a product of the main system falling into a pit it dug itself.
On the other side.
After Xia Yixin went down the mountain, she returned to the governor's mansion and received news that Cao Anmin (Qi Yu) had gone out to investigate a case.
The investigation lasted a full day and night.
The next day, after nightfall, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from the East Depot.
She had been lying down fully clothed, but immediately sat up. Unfortunately, she didn't see Qi Yu, but instead saw Gui Ling.
Gui Ling respectfully said from outside the door, "The Chief Supervisor has ordered that Madam come to the Eastern Depot immediately!"
Something really serious has happened.
Yesterday, following the messenger, they traced the clues and found that the owner of a tea shop called Lefulai in the capital was colluding with Beiwu to pass messages.
This was a big deal. Gui Ling couldn't believe that such a situation could occur under the strict guard of the Eastern Depot. So he interrogated the captured person overnight. Originally, the fat boss was considered to be tough, until the Eastern Depot found the man's wife and children.
Under interrogation and threats from his wife and daughters, the owner of Lefulai had no choice but to confess about his mission. His messengers, however, were less defiant and revealed an important piece of information—the message came from the Eastern Depot and the Imperial Palace.
Many of the messages they sent out before were crucial in determining the outcome of the previous battles.
After an all-night investigation, the Eastern Depot discovered that the only mysterious missing person in the palace was a nine-year-old boy named Mingyu.
Immediately, all the suspicions fell on him.
Because Xia Mingyu was trapped in the main space, the cowardly puppet emperor confessed his previous agreement with Xia Mingyu before the Eastern Depot could interrogate him.
The young emperor even naively said, "I am doing this for the good of Yushang, and also for the benefit of all under heaven..."
The young emperor trembled under Cao Anmin's (Qi Yu) cold gaze and dared not utter a word.
During this period, in order to avoid suspicion, Cao De was placed under house arrest in his residence.
Lin Sikong also received the news, but unfortunately he still couldn't see the enraged Qi Yu.
The entire capital was placed under martial law in order to search for Xia Mingyu.
At the same time, Qi Yu also began investigating the mole within the Eastern Depot.
After eliminating 90% of the suspects as members of the Eastern Depot, the clues naturally eventually focused on Xia Yixin, who frequently shopped at Carrefour.
Gui Ling dared not say another word and, following orders, led Xia Yixin all the way to the East Depot's dungeon.
Although she had visited the Eastern Depot before, she had never been to this dungeon before. As she walked down the steps, it became darker and damper, with only a sliver of candlelight. Moreover, screams of agony came from the depths, as if it were a den of demons.
