Despite being stripped of his title, Mo Sheng found himself in a peaceful life, remaining Wang Qiaochuan's most capable disciple.
Looking at Murong Kui, who was smugly admiring herself in the mirror, Mo Sheng curled her lips in disdain: "Ridiculous, isn't it? This face was originally yours."
"But we have to live under someone else's name."
"Hmph!" she sneered.
"Imperial Advisor, oh no, that's not right."
"I should call you Young Master Mo now. Your provocation won't work on me."
"Don't think I don't know you like okra."
"But I absolutely will not allow her to live in this world anymore."
"Slap slap slap!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several crisp applause rang out.
Mo Sheng smiled slightly, his eyes carrying a hint of allure, living up to his reputation as a refined gentleman.
"Indeed, a woman's heart is the most poisonous!"
"The prince now thinks I am that woman, and he is very obedient to me!" She said, her face beaming with a sweet smile, seemingly already immersed in the moment.
"Don't forget who the Prince of Anyang is. He's not so easily fooled."
Murong Kui felt a chill run down her spine. These words were like a wake-up call, instantly sobering her up: "You mean he might be testing me?"
But after observing various things, he seemed to have completely come to believe it.
"what do I do?"
Are you sure the okra is dead?
Lost in her sweet reverie, Murong Kui was suddenly jolted awake. She had been so focused on pleasing Ye Lisheng these past few days that she hadn't thought about this at all!
"Isn't the Celestial Master able to open his third eye and see the past? Finding him will definitely provide a solution!"
She tried to pull him to find Wangqiaochuan, but he refused, saying, "Master is in seclusion, and no one is allowed to disturb him."
"Since this is Princess Murong's matter, then we will trouble the princess to resolve it herself!"
He then changed the subject and asked, "I heard that the Prince of Anyang is going to take you to Lanyi?"
"Young Master Mo's information network is truly impressive."
"The imperial edict is in Lan Yi, so his purpose in going to Lan Yi must not be so simple!"
"If the prince receives the imperial edict and becomes the emperor of Lingqi, then wouldn't I become the empress!"
"Pfft!" Mo Sheng laughed mercilessly, as if mocking her wishful thinking.
"There's nothing wrong with dreaming of becoming empress; the problem is when people don't know their place!"
Her slender fingers traced along her brows down to her neck: "Without her blood, you would still be an ugly monster who dares not see the light of day."
"You!!!" Murong Kui glared at her fiercely, her cheeks flushed slightly!
Looking at the two identical faces, even though they looked exactly alike, Mo Sheng just couldn't bring herself to like Murong Kui.
That person's face will always unconsciously appear in my mind.
"You'd better watch yourself; serving a king is like serving a tiger!"
Watching Mo Sheng's departing figure, Murong Kui felt a sense of heaviness, as if he were hiding many things.
...
The fire in the stove was burning bright red, with flames leaping high into the air.
Wangqiaochuan watched as the fire went out and reignited, reignited and went out again.
The spider lily in the corner had withered so much that even its roots were about to fall off.
Looking at the new wounds on his hands and his increasingly white hair, Wang Qiaochuan frowned and let out a heavy sigh.
"Master, is she really dead?"
Wang Qiaochuan shook his head. Without the other shore flower to identify her, he couldn't be sure whether she was dead or alive.
"What did the people sent out say when they came back?"
"Murong Kui had previously sent people to hunt down a woman, but it cannot be confirmed whether it was her."
"Snap!" A crisp sound rang out in the empty room.
A red handprint appeared on Mo Sheng's face.
"Are you an idiot? Why didn't you send someone to secretly follow that woman and find out her identity?"
A metallic taste of blood assaulted his taste buds, and he dared not move or argue, so he could only grit his teeth and swallow the blood down his throat.
"Master, please forgive me. It was my oversight and lack of consideration."
Where did that woman go?
"Judging from the direction they're heading, they must have gone to Lanyi."
"Take some men and go after her right now. If it's that woman, bring her back!"
"Disciple obeys!"
People always return to where they came from. A wicked soul from Wangqiaochuan lingered in the Reincarnation Well for a hundred years, and only after being reborn and in September was it able to have a physical body and come to the human world.
In the blink of an eye, a century has passed, and this body is becoming increasingly frail.
If he doesn't quickly obtain the Flower Spirit of Rebirth, he might be sealed back into the Well of Reincarnation, never to be freed again.
He felt a slight itch on his head, and when he gently scratched it, a clump of hair fell out.
...
"What are Your Highness's plans?" Prime Minister Su asked.
He smirked and feigned ignorance, saying, "I don't know what Prime Minister Su means?"
"With the departure of the Prince of Anyang, Lingqi City is now counting on Your Highness Prince Yu."
"That's not necessarily true. What if the Prince of Anyang finds the imperial edict early and returns victorious?"
"Your Highness is mistaken!" A sharp killing intent flashed in Prime Minister Su's eyes, as sharp as a sword.
"His Majesty's health has been poor lately, and it's uncertain whether he will be able to..."
He stopped speaking at this point, and the rest was self-evident; Prince Yu knew what he meant without needing to say it!
He stood up, offered him a toast, and said, "I would like to extend my congratulations in advance to His Highness Prince Yu."
"To ensure that Prime Minister Su's plans do not fail, I will make sure he never returns!"
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
...
The marriage procession marched in a grand procession toward Lan Yi, seemingly calm on the surface but with turbulent undercurrents brewing beneath.
