Chapter 392 Xiao Zirui complains
Yun Qingqing narrowed her eyes and reached out to touch the man to see if he had a fever.
But Xiao Changheng took a step back calmly and dodged it lightly.
"Yuan Si said you have plans for today. Wait a moment, I'll be right there."
After saying that, he turned around and put his clothes in an orderly manner.
Yun Qingqing withdrew her hand that was suspended in mid-air, frowned and looked at him, with a clear light flowing quietly in her eyes. For a long time, she couldn't find out what was wrong with this man.
So she decided to ask directly:
"What’s wrong with you?"
Xiao Changheng paused for a moment, then returned to normal and said calmly:
"I shouldn't have drunk too much yesterday. This won't happen again. I'm sorry."
Yun Qingqing heard him mention last night, and he had the same attitude again. She thought for a while with a confused look on her face, and gradually came to her senses.
After the man sobered up, he regretted it.
That's right, I cut off his feelings with my own hands, and since then, there has been no way he could express any true feelings.
It's all just a show, I've known this for a long time.
Last night, she had originally felt sorry for him because he couldn't practice, and was being targeted everywhere in the Seven Stars Palace, and looked down upon both openly and covertly, so she had tried patiently to comfort him.
But he was drunk and kept pestering her, saying that they wanted to be Taoist partners and even get married...
Anyone who encounters this situation would wish they had lost their memory after sobering up.
Yun Qingqing suddenly wanted to laugh.
She wanted to laugh.
I want to roll on the ground laughing like Zhiluo.
Then she pointed at his nose and recounted the dark history of the previous night, and showed him her tangled hair, making him feel ashamed and angry.
But for some reason, she was in no mood to laugh. She just stood there and looked at him quietly, without any expression.
"Well, I'm glad you know."
She heard her own voice, as if it were an outsider speaking.
"Hurry up, don't keep me waiting."
After saying that, she turned and left the room, closing the door.
Xiao Changheng stopped moving, lowered his eyes to look at his palm, and slowly clenched it.
He closed his eyes, and the waves that were about to burst out of his black eyes were suppressed again. He spoke in a low voice:
"knew."
…
In the courtyard.
Yun Qingqing held the Dawn in her hand and drew the Divine Movement Formation on the ground smoothly. She had never felt that the Qingxin Jue was so useful.
A mind free of distractions and a light body is the ideal state for a practitioner.
She had lived like this for many years in her previous life, which is why she was able to catch up at such a young age and surpass those old guys to stand at the pinnacle of Xuanmen.
The master often said that although she was naturally gifted, her greatest advantage was her pure and clear mind.
That's how it should be.
It's just that I traveled back to the original owner's mortal body, and my realm plummeted to the bottom and started from the beginning, so it will always be a little uncomfortable for a while.
At this moment, Yun Qingqing was finally no longer troubled by the inexplicable feeling, and felt that her mind was extremely clear.
The door opened and familiar footsteps were heard behind him.
Yun Qingqing put away Dawn, turned back to look at him, smiled calmly, and extended her hand towards him:
"Just in time, come here."
Xiao Changheng looked at her quietly for a moment, stepped into the battle formation, and did not shake her hand in return.
Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows and sneered:
"This is a divine movement array. If I don't take you with me, where can you go by yourself?"
As she spoke, she put her arms around his waist, made a hand gesture, and a bright light flashed beneath her feet. A strong wind blew up, and the two of them disappeared in an instant.
…
Imperial Capital, Imperial Study Room.
"What! The emperor's younger brother was kidnapped in the Nanyu Honglu Temple?!"
The emperor stood up in horror, held his forehead tightly, and swayed.
"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!" Li Liangui hurried forward to support him, helping him to breathe and patting his back.
Xiao Zirui and several ministers were also in a panic, and someone shouted for the imperial physician.
The news came suddenly. They were originally discussing something, which was that Yun Qingqing had snatched the Tianfeng token in the street.
Several ministers were Xiao Zirui's followers, and they came specifically to help impeach the Regent Princess.
But before he could get to the point, he received an urgent letter from Nan Yu via carrier pigeon, which was the news that the Regent had been abducted!
Xiao Zirui looked shocked on the surface, and tried to comfort the emperor, but in his heart he was so happy that he was about to burst into laughter!
God is watching over us, and all our wishes come true!
It would be best if the Regent just disappeared and never came back!
Once that woman loses the support of the Regent, no matter how capable she is, she will never be able to rebel!
Xiao Zirui's mind turned, and suddenly another idea came to his mind. He slapped his thigh and exclaimed in surprise:
"Ah! Could it be that the Emperor's uncle is in trouble because of this?"
Everyone's attention was drawn to him. The emperor, who had just recovered his breath, also looked at him and asked with a heavy breath:
"Prince, what did you think of? Tell me!"
Xiao Zirui said with a heavy face:
"I was just about to report to Father that the Crown Princess and I had already brought back the spiritual object entrusted to us by Master Jingyuan from the Fahua Temple. However, Yun Qingqing suddenly appeared halfway and snatched the object away in the street!"
"What...why did she do this?" The emperor's mind was still on the kidnapping of Xiao Changheng. He didn't react for a moment, nor did he get furious as Xiao Zirui thought.
A dark light flashed in Xiao Zirui's eyes, and he frowned and said:
"I don't understand why. Perhaps Yun Qingqing has always disliked Yun Bailian and can't bear to see her being given a spiritual object by Master Jingyuan... But that's not what I really want to say!"
Seeing the emperor's annoyance, he quickly changed the subject and said:
"Yun Qingqing stole a spiritual object on the street the day before yesterday. After the incident in Nanyu, it took time for the carrier pigeon to send a letter back. So..."
"Wasn't it right after Yun Qingqing stole the spiritual object that the Imperial Uncle was abducted? Father, do you think this is really a coincidence?"
When he said this, several ministers immediately understood and spoke up:
"Hiss... is there such a coincidence? Something is fishy..."
"What a coincidence! That's a magical object that Master Jingyuan found during his travels. It must be very effective!"
"It's obvious that Yun Qingqing's forcible snatching of the spiritual object angered the heavens, causing the Regent to suffer this disaster!"
"Why would she want to snatch the spiritual object for no reason? She's not a Heavenly Phoenix, is she so jealous of the Crown Princess?"
"No matter how jealous you are, you can't be so excessive, right? Putting that spiritual object in Tianfeng's hands is related to the fate of the country!"
"That's right! The Regent is the pillar of our Daliang! The prince's safety is also related to the fate of the country! So it seems that Yun Qingqing has indeed angered the heavens and caused the prince to suffer a disaster!"
Several ministers were talking back and forth, and the emperor was almost out of breath. He slammed the table fiercely:
"Go! Xuan Yunqingqing, come to the palace! I want to ask her face to face what she wants to do!"
Just as he finished speaking, before he could execute it, someone came to report:
"The guards at the Prince Regent's Palace are requesting an audience with Your Majesty, saying they have important news regarding the Prince!"
The emperor was shocked:
"Let him in quickly!"
A moment later, the palace guards came before the emperor and knelt down to report:
"Your Majesty, the palace has received news from Lord Nan Zheng that the prince was kidnapped the day before yesterday at the Nanyu Honglu Temple. Fortunately, the princess went to look for the prince that day and sent back a message yesterday that the prince is safe and will return in a few days. Your Majesty, please do not worry."
The emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest fiercely:
"It's all right, it's all right!"
Xiao Zirui's mouth twitched when he heard this. He had thought that even if the Regent was fine, it would take some time for the news to get back. He could take this opportunity to deal with Yun Qingqing. By then, it would be too late and no one could do anything about it.
But I didn’t expect to be slapped in the face right before my eyes!
He said unwillingly:
"How is this possible? Nanyu is a long and arduous journey. Are you trying to say that Yun Qingqing just stole Yun Bailian's spiritual object on the street and then immediately arrived in Nanyu to look for the whereabouts of the Regent?"
"Could it be that she knew her actions would cause trouble, and spread false news to get away with it?"
