Xie Lingqin stared ahead, but from beginning to end, she remained fully alert and vigilant. After all, she knew nothing about the man in black robes before her. Now, upon hearing his words, a chill ran through her. "Who exactly are you?"
To be able to see through the mystery in a single sentence, to know that the Emperor sent secret guards to kill her, but the one who was injured was the Crown Prince, this person...
Who exactly is he, and how much does he know?
Their eyes met.
After a moment, the man in black robes smiled and said, "The Crown Prince is indeed a good one, but I don't think highly of him. Moreover, you are destined to be widowed, and the more you love, the more tragically you will die."
"Are you cursing me?"
"Give me kind advice."
"I'd rather tear down a temple than ruin a marriage. Do you want to break up this loving couple?"
Xie Lingqin's words were sharp and incisive.
The man in black smiled. "I've said it before, the Crown Prince is good. I just don't want you to harm him."
Upon hearing this, Xie Lingqin's strength dissipated. "Fine, I can't beat you anyway, and you're hiding your strength. Let's go back to our respective residences."
“Little girl, if you want to obtain my inner strength, you can come to the Heavenly Mystery Hall. I left something for you there.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the black robe disappeared from sight.
Xie Lingqin felt depressed.
Hearing the first sentence, she was still puzzled. This person was actually from the Heavenly Mystery Hall. She never expected that he had just left something for her in the Heavenly Mystery Hall.
In other words, the other party unwittingly showed off again.
He must be incredibly capable to leave something in the Heavenly Mystery Hall without being detected by its inhabitants.
And to this day, he still hasn't received a single piece of news from the Heavenly Secrets Palace.
Not to mention the Heavenly Mystery Hall, there hasn't been a trace of the Yama King's Hall lately either.
Oh no!
Xie Lingqin suddenly rubbed her forehead in annoyance.
I completely forgot to ask the man in black if he had taken away the fake Xie Lingyu back then, and whether he knew anything about Li Junru's and Xie Lingyu's deaths, as well as Miao Qiao's death.
Why!
She made such a huge mistake.
The night was deep, and the watchman's drum had sounded several times.
Xie Lingqin did not return to the General's Mansion, but went to the Crown Prince's Mansion.
Yuwen Yao is now truly seriously injured and will likely need to recuperate for quite some time.
Xie Lingqin finally understood. No wonder, back then, although it was just acting, it would have been enough if Yu Qingyi had been injured. Why did he have to get injured? Now that she thought about it, it was all for tonight's performance.
He endured all his suffering alone.
When Xie Lingqin entered the room, Yuwen Yao had his eyes closed and seemed to be fast asleep. His wounds had been bandaged, and the room was filled with his faint, pear-scented fragrance, which was refreshing and pleasant.
Xie Lingqin stood for a moment and then quietly withdrew.
"Miss Lingqin, there was a fire in the palace just now, and it turned out to be the location of Hualuo Hall." Tingfeng walked over immediately, looking quite excited.
Therefore, these subordinates really didn't have a good impression of Yuwen Yao's father.
"Yes, I did it." Xie Lingqin readily accepted the credit.
very good.
She saw Tingfeng and Tingyu looking at her in shock.
"He dared to hurt my man, so I destroyed his beloved possessions. It's only polite to retaliate, and I didn't want to be impolite." Xie Lingqin lied with her eyes wide open, and she did it with a straight face.
Listening to the wind and listening to the rain, they found it extremely reasonable and couldn't refute a single word of it.
"However, this matter should not be told to the Crown Prince, after all..."
"I already know."
Before Xie Lingqin could finish speaking, the door to the main house opened, and Yuwen Yao came out.
Despite being stabbed, he didn't stay in bed but went out.
Xie Lingqin immediately went over and said, "What are you doing out here? Go back to bed."
"I'm afraid if you don't get up soon, you might burn down the Crown Prince's residence."
Upon hearing this, Xie Lingqin paused, then looked up at Yuwen Yao.
His face was pale, but when he looked at her, there was obvious blame in his eyes. Xie Lingqin got angry and said, "Do you still have any lingering feelings for your heartless father?"
"Xie Lingqin, he is the Emperor."
"I know he's still your father, so you feel sorry for him?" Xie Lingqin's anger flared up, and she stepped forward. "But he almost killed you."
"Xie Lingqin!"
Yuwen Yao's face darkened. After calling out loudly, he immediately clutched his chest and looked at Xie Lingqin, "He didn't mean to kill, he just..."
"I know you pretended that I took the sword for me in my bed. So, Yuwen Yao, I didn't even take his life, I just burned down one of his palaces. Why are you looking at me with such a pained and blaming expression? Instead of praising me or showing concern for my safety on this trip, you're making this face." Xie Lingqin became more and more angry as she spoke, meeting Yuwen Yao's dark and complicated gaze. "You want to apologize, right?"
"The burning of a palace can be large or small..."
"Shut up."
Before Yuwen Yao could finish speaking, Xie Lingqin raised her hand to interrupt him, "You sound so aggrieved as soon as you open your mouth. Stop giving me lectures. You weren't even born when I was trying to understand reason."
"Thanks……"
Yuwen Yao wanted to say something, but as soon as he moved his lips, his face turned even paler, seemingly angered, and he explained with a deep gaze, "I am a few years older than you."
"So, you want to take advantage of your age? You want to lecture me for burning down the palace? Who was I doing this for?"
Xie Lingqin was furious with every word she spoke, and seeing Yuwen Yao's face turn pale while he still stubbornly held his own opinion, she became even more furious.
Are you mute?
Meanwhile, those watching from the side, listening to the wind and rain, almost forgot to breathe.
These two were doing fine, how did they suddenly start arguing?
Furthermore, Miss Lingqin, the Crown Prince is injured; could you please... give way to him?
This is the sound of the wind.
Even listening to the wind and rain makes me anxious, let alone the wind.
