328 Entering the Palace, We Are Not Familiar

The carriage stopped, and the driver left quietly. Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Uncle did not come out immediately, as if they had made an appointment. Instead, they sat in the carriage, hugging each other, motionless and silent, as if this moment was eternal...

With the beautiful girl in his arms, the Ninth Prince didn't want to move; but Feng Qingchen was reluctant to let go. It was rare for her to be so close to the Ninth Prince, and she really didn't want to leave so soon.

Next time, she didn’t know when she would be so close to the Ninth Prince and lean on his arms. Maybe there wouldn’t be a next time between her and the Ninth Prince. She felt a little sad in her heart and silently snuggled into his arms.

She couldn't afford this man, and she was no longer prepared to keep him. This should be the last time she indulged her feelings.

Feng Qingchen closed her eyes and clutched her clothes tightly with both hands to calm the pain in her heart and the emotions that shouldn't have emerged.

When Feng Qingchen was sure that he had suppressed this emotion, he opened his eyes. There was a calmness in his eyes, like a still body of water. Feng Qingchen pushed the Ninth Uncle away and said, "Ninth Uncle, it's time to get down to business."

The Ninth Prince hesitated for a moment, with a bad premonition in his heart, but when he thought of the danger he would face next, he suppressed it, straightened Feng Qingchen's clothes, and helped Feng Qingchen get off the carriage.

"Where is this?" Feng Qingchen carefully looked around and found that this was not the place she and Imperial Noble Consort Xie had agreed to meet.

After the fire broke out in the Feng Mansion, everything that happened afterwards was all in Feng Qingchen's plan, but the appearance of the Ninth Prince tonight was beyond her plan.

Tonight was the most important night, and she would not allow any accidents to happen, not even a little bit.

The Ninth Prince did not explain. He held Feng Qingchen's hand and walked straight forward. When he saw Feng Qingchen shake off his hand, he stopped reluctantly.

"Follow me, I won't harm you. I know all the ways that the Xie family knows, but the Xie family doesn't know the ways that I know. Rather than going against your will and making a deal with the Xie family, it's better to go with me. I've said that you can do whatever you want with this matter, and I'll do my best to help you without asking for anything in return."

This was the first time he helped someone without any bottom line, but unfortunately the other party did not appreciate it at all. Feng Qingchen did a lot in the past nine days, but he never thought of using his power. It was he who deliberately intervened tonight.

Thinking of this, the Ninth Prince felt a little discouraged. It was rare for him to want to be nice to a woman, but this woman treated him like a thief and was very wary of him.

"Nothing in return? What about the Sky-shaking Thunder?" Feng Qingchen followed the Ninth Prince into the secret passage and said sarcastically.

She had not forgotten what happened in the villa. This man looked at her affectionately in the lotus pond one moment, and used and threatened her without hesitation the next.

She believed that the Ninth Prince was special to her, but this specialness was based on the fact that she was a chess piece with value. She was just a tool like Li Xiang. When the tool lost its function, she was nothing.

"I didn't force you to do it." The Ninth Prince frowned when he heard about the Sky-shaking Thunder. He was the only one in the world who knew that Feng Qingchen could make the Sky-shaking Thunder but didn't force her. He was often annoyed by his subordinates for this matter. Feng Qingchen didn't know how much pressure he was under for this.

"No one is forcing me, but do I have the right to choose?" Men and women, overlords and commoners, they consider things from different perspectives. Feng Qingchen only considers things from his own standpoint and has never thought about what the Thunder of Heaven means to the Ninth Uncle.

If the Ninth Prince can produce thunder bombs without limit, it means that some things can be completed ten or twenty years earlier, and a person only has a few more decades.

It is understandable that the Ninth Prince is anxious. You have to know that the Ninth Prince is not really a powerless Dongling Prince, and what he wants is not just a small Dongling.

"No right to choose? Feng Qingchen, I have never forced you." The Ninth Prince was very angry. He was angry at Feng Qingchen for not knowing what was good for him. If he had forced her forcefully, Feng Qingchen would not be able to live well until now.

He only threatened verbally and did not use violence, which was already a big concession.

You know, his men have a hundred, a thousand ways to make Feng Qingchen tell the method of making the Sky-shaking Bomb alive.

But he didn't do that. Even if he wanted to use Thunder again, he didn't use force to force Feng Qingchen.

Looking across the Kyushu Continent, only Feng Qingchen could make him compromise. If it were anyone else, he would have made the other person wish they were dead.

Just like the emperor, the emperor has become more and more anxious recently, and his attitude towards Li Xiang has also changed. The emperor is already forcing Li Xiang. If Li Xiang doesn't tell him how to make the thunder bomb, his end will not be any better.

Of course, after saying it, death is also what awaits Li Xiang, unless Li Xiang can make a weapon more powerful than the Thunder Bomb. But even so, it will only delay the time of death.

In the eyes of the emperor and others, Li Xiang is just a chess piece. No matter how exquisite a chess piece is, it will be destroyed when it loses its value. He has never regarded Feng Qingchen as a chess piece, at least he has never thought of destroying Feng Qingchen.

"Won't force me? Even if Li Xiang died today, you wouldn't force me. You would never force me to make the Sky-shaking Bomb?" Feng Qingchen didn't know what the Ninth Prince was thinking. She just wanted to get his promise urgently.

She is used to seeing life and death, used to the flames of war, but that doesn't mean she can get used to it or adapt to it. On the contrary, she hates war and the harm and death it brings. Now the world is peaceful and the people are prosperous. Isn't that good?

These men are all ambitious and intend to conquer the world, but have they ever thought about how many innocent people will die tragically because of their ambitions?

Feng Qingchen could not understand the Ninth Uncle's ambition, just as the Ninth Uncle could not understand Feng Qingchen's compassionate thoughts, but this did not prevent him from doting on Feng Qingchen.

Feng Qingchen has always been very strong-willed. She always wants whatever he gives her, and has never asked him for anything on her own initiative.

This was the first time Feng Qingchen took the initiative to ask for something. He would give it no matter what it was. Even if making this promise might cost him a huge price, he would still give it.

"No pressure." The Ninth Prince said in a deep voice.

Now, you should be satisfied!

"Huh... Ninth Uncle, remember what you said today." Feng Qingchen relaxed completely. The huge stone on his heart disappeared because of Ninth Uncle's words.

The Ninth Prince glanced at Feng Qingchen calmly, continued to pull her forward, and the corner of his lips raised slightly when he turned around.

He would not force Feng Qingchen, but if Feng Qingchen took the initiative to create the thunder, then everything would be fine. Sometimes it was a contest between men and women. Just because he lost one game, it didn't mean he would lose every game.

The matter of the Sky-shaking Thunder could be put on hold for a while. He firmly believed that he could make Feng Qingchen change her mind because he was...
