Chapter 199 Prince Pu Xin's Self-Strategy
The Imperial Master nodded silently.
The Queen said angrily:
"At first, I thought Xiao Changheng had died on the battlefield, and Yun Qingqing suddenly disappeared without a trace. This was the perfect opportunity for her to become a scourge to the nation, a demonic concubine who could never recover. But who knew Xiao Changheng was so lucky and could actually come back alive."
"But even so, we shouldn't disrupt our original plan!"
"Yun Qingqing had already lost her patience and resorted to those treacherous tactics. As long as you, Imperial Master, determine that those were all sorcery, you will be able to confirm her identity as the evil concubine who brought disaster to the country!"
"Why did you suddenly change your tune? Not only did you not take action to subdue her, but you even praised her as a master? You must explain today's events to me clearly!"
The Imperial Master looked like he had a toothache.
He sighed:
"Empress, it's not that I don't want to subdue her, it's just... I can't do it!"
"What?" The queen's brows were furrowed so tightly that a fly could be squeezed to death. She didn't want to think about the true meaning of his words.
But the Imperial Master had already shaken his head and said:
"Even in a hidden sect like the Seven Stars Palace, only the most gifted inner disciples can learn the Qimen Dunjia. I know from Yun Qingqing's attack today that she is no match for me!"
"That's why I changed my tone and covered it up as a misunderstanding, so that I wouldn't fail and end up being hated by her. That would be a huge problem in the future!"
The Queen was shocked and unwilling:
"Is she really that powerful?"
The Imperial Master sighed again, and the Queen fell silent.
Xiao Zirui finally understood and suddenly remembered the talisman paper and peach wood sword given to him by the Imperial Master:
"National Master, so those protective items you gave me were just for show, to irritate Yun Qingqing so you can act more easily later?"
He was somewhat displeased, feeling that he was being used as a tool by the Imperial Master to frame Yun Qingqing, and he was completely unaware of it.
The Imperial Master was stunned and shook his head in denial:
"Your Highness, you're worrying too much. The Emperor has been ill recently because of an evil spirit. Those protective items are meant to protect Your Highness from the evil spirit... I didn't expect you would try to use them against Yun Qingqing."
The Imperial Master's expression was indescribable.
Xiao Zirui: ...
He was unhappy, but when he saw the look in the queen's eyes, he didn't ask any more questions.
The emperor's father was possessed by evil spirits, but the imperial teacher did not exorcise the evil spirits but let it go. Xiao Zirui already understood the queen's plan.
But I didn’t expect Yun Qingqing to suddenly appear, and Xiao Changheng was not dead after all.
All plans have to be put on hold until the next opportunity comes.
After a moment of silence, the Queen's face was already filled with gloom:
"So, if Yun Qingqing is so capable, then we won't be able to do anything to her, right?"
The national teacher said:
"That's not the case. She's still young, and even if she's talented, she's still limited by her experience. She's nothing compared to a true master."
"I will set off today to ask my uncle to help me deal with her!"
The Queen was delighted:
"Is he your uncle who is extremely talented and defeated the previous master when he was only a teenager?"
"That's right." The Imperial Master smiled faintly and reminded, "However, while I'm away, Your Majesty and the Crown Prince must remember to keep a low profile and not go against Yun Qingqing for now."
On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Zirui's mind was in a mess.
It was not until today that he found out that Yun Qingqing was actually a sorcerer to whom even the imperial teacher had to be defeated!
How does she know this?
If I had known this at the beginning... Xiao Zirui clenched his fists until the knuckles turned white, and became more and more unwilling to accept it.
That woman was originally his fiancée. She should have been completely devoted to him and would not marry anyone else!
Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? He just took a concubine for his future, why can't she accept it?
How could she forget the friendship they had since childhood?
Why would she turn around and marry the blind and crippled Regent?
The carriage shook violently, and Yun Bailian, who was lying opposite and still unconscious, slid off the seat and groaned in a daze.
The imperial physician gave her some medicine to reduce swelling and relieve pain, and said that she would not wake up until a few hours later. She needed to return home and take good care of herself, and take medicine every day to detoxify.
Xiao Zirui looked at her swollen face, and Yun Qingqing's elegant face appeared in his mind again.
He frowned, kicked Yun Bailian aside in disgust, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
It seems that Tianfeng is only effective against ordinary people. Compared with sorcerers, it is useless.
Xiao Zirui was very clear that he was somewhat regretful now.
But it doesn't matter. Yun Qingqing just married the disabled man Xiao Changheng out of shame and out of spite.
All she wanted was for him to regret asking her for help.
She beat and scolded him because he had trampled on her self-esteem.
The more harshly she speaks to me, the more it shows that she hasn't let it go, right?
Xiao Zirui opened his eyes, his determination to win revealed in his eyes.
"Qingqing, I already know what you want, and I will satisfy you in every way."
"I will definitely let you see your true heart!"
…
Yun Qingqing knew nothing about the self-improvement strategy of a certain Prince Pu Xin.
After she returned to the palace, she had been busy regulating her breathing and digesting the spiritual power, willpower, and the residual power of her heart blood that were filling her body to the point of congestion.
Although this body has been reborn, it is still a mortal body after all. The spiritual power has grown to this point and is about to reach a bottleneck.
Yun Qingqing knew that it was time to prepare for body training.
Xiao Changheng was busy in the palace for three days and finally dealt with the backlog of political affairs, and the good news from the northwest had also been reported back.
At the same time, he also brought news: Xilan and the defeated barbarians will send envoys to the capital.
Xilan naturally came to negotiate peace and discuss compensation.
The barbarian tribes, however, joined forces with Xilan to attack Daliang, but were nearly wiped out. Finally, they became frightened and were willing to submit to Daliang and pay tribute every year, sending people to offer tribute and letters of surrender.
The emperor was overjoyed and in much better spirits. He resumed attending court. Only then did Xiao Changheng have time to return to the palace.
Yun Qingqing had almost finished regulating her breathing that day. She went to Tianming Pavilion and dealt with the backlog of matters. It was already late.
As soon as she went out, she saw the expensive carriage of the Regent's Palace parked on the side of the road.
Next to him was a man sitting quietly in a wheelchair, his dignified face half hidden in the night, and the gaze from his deep black eyes was impossible to ignore.
Yun Qingqing paused and walked over.
"Why are you here? Are you done with the palace affairs?"
"Well, I'll pick you up."
The man smiled gently, naturally pulled her to his side, unfolded the cloak in his hand and wrapped her tightly.
His hand brushed against her cheek carelessly, bringing a cool feeling.
The early winter evening breeze was blowing in my face, and it was a bit biting.
Yun Qingqing frowned slightly:
"How long have you been outside? Why don't you wait in the car?"
Xiao Changheng didn't say anything, but reached out to open the car curtain and motioned her to come in.
It was not until the carriage started that he curled his lips slightly and said softly:
"I want to see you soon."
Yun Qingqing suddenly turned her head, pursed her lips and looked at him without saying a word, but the wariness in her eyes was clearly visible.
Xiao Changheng's bright eyes dimmed slightly, he lowered his eyes and said in a low voice:
"Qingqing, I feel like I'm frozen. I'm cold."
As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and held her hand. The cold touch made her heart skip a beat.
She subconsciously pulled her hand back, but the man held it tightly.
"I'm waiting for you all this time. You have to hold me close." Someone took her hand into his arms relentlessly.
Yun Qingqing stared at him, speechless.
Listen to what this guy is saying! Can you please be reasonable?
