Feng Yi also thought of this, and his brows were filled with gloom.
Qu Li held his hand and said, "Ayi, what I have always wished for is peace in the world and happiness for the people!"
She had experienced war before she traveled through time. Whenever she saw the children who had lost their homes, parents and relatives, and saw their empty or even numb eyes, she felt heartbroken.
Feng Yihui held her hand and met her worried eyes, "Li'er, I promise, nothing like that will ever happen!"
He spoke with great seriousness, holding her hand very firmly.
Qu Li pursed her lips and tried very hard to suppress the excitement in her chest.
"The Emperor of Southern Qi will be here soon, right?"
That day she sneaked into the Lanyue Palace and heard the Emperor of Southern Qi say that if he was free, he would go to Long'an Temple to find Changsun Lingyue.
The Emperor of Southern Qi must see the true face of Changsun Lingyue with his own eyes and know her ambition of colluding with Zhuona to provoke a war among the Three Kingdoms!
"If you want him to come earlier, then he can come earlier."
Qu Li frowned, "Can you still influence his thoughts?"
"Li'er looks down on me!" Feng Yi's eyes showed some grievance.
"I didn't, I was just surprised."
She found that Feng Yi had been learning more and more from Goudan recently, and he would often show an aggrieved and pitiful look.
Even though she knew that he was most likely faking it, she still couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.
Feng Yi called out "big fire" and asked him to make arrangements.
Changsun Lingyue and Zhuona finally parted ways unhappily in the hall.
Zhuona gave Changsun Lingyue an ultimatum: if she refused to do as she said, she would destroy her!
Changsun Lingyue's back was already soaked with cold sweat, and her face was extremely pale.
Only when she heard the chorus of "The Emperor has arrived" coming from outside did she come back to her senses.
The Emperor of Southern Qi walked in excitedly, but when he saw that she looked unhappy and listless, he couldn't help but frown.
"My beloved, what's wrong? Are you sick? Or are you too tired from copying scriptures?"
As he spoke, he reached out and touched Changsun Lingyue's forehead, his eyes full of concern.
Looking closely at this face with loose skin like old tree bark, Changsun Lingyue's heart felt like it was being pierced by sharp thorns, and the pain was suffocating.
She could have had a bright future and had relatives who treated her like a treasure, but it was all ruined by Qu Li!
The Emperor of Southern Qi kept staring at her face, extremely nervous: "My beloved concubine, what's wrong with you? Do you want to call the imperial physician?"
"It's okay!" Changsun Lingyue leaned on his shoulder, her eyes gradually becoming fierce.
"If you feel any discomfort, you must tell me."
Smelling the stench of an old man emanating from him, Changsun Lingyue had already made up her mind.
She looked up, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
The Emperor of Southern Qi met her complex eyes, and the wrinkles between his brows deepened.
He could see that Changsun Lingyue was definitely hiding something from him.
Thinking of the secret letter he had received earlier, he suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart and said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely agree to it."
"It was widely rumored that I was good at predicting the future and that I was the reincarnation of a celestial being."
"My beloved concubine is so beautiful and can tell many things accurately. She must be a fairy!" The Emperor of Southern Qi smiled brightly and wanted to kiss her face again, but she cleverly avoided it.
The Southern Qi Emperor's smile was obviously a little stiff, but fortunately, he never showed his emotions on his face, so even if he was unhappy, he didn't show it.
"I can be absolutely certain that Feng Yi is currently in a small courtyard in the border town of Dagan."
When mentioning Feng Yi, the Southern Qi Emperor's face was filled with frost, and his eyes were like sharp swords.
"Your Majesty, you can send secret guards disguised as ordinary people to go to Dagan to take a look. If Feng Yi is really hiding there, you can let the secret guards find the local county magistrate." Changsun Lingyue suggested again.
The Southern Qi Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "I'll think about it again."
Changsun Lingyue nodded.
When the current emperor suddenly came to Longan Temple, everyone, from the abbot to the young monks, was on high alert, fearing that something might happen.
As night fell, Changsun Lingyue did not want to accompany the Emperor of Southern Qi, so she stayed in the hall on the pretext of concentrating on copying scriptures.
Perhaps it was because the hall was too empty, the wind blew in through the crack in the door, making people's hair stand on end for no reason.
Changsun Lingyue gathered her cloak tightly around her body, rubbed her hands, and resented in her heart that the Emperor of Southern Qi had nothing better to do than to go to Long'an Temple and prevent her from getting a good night's sleep.
Her eyelids felt heavy, and she thought she would just lie down and take a nap for a while before continuing to copy the scriptures.
On the other side, the Emperor of Southern Qi summoned his secret guards and asked them to go to the border town of Dagan to take a look.
“If that rebellious son is really hiding there, there is no need to contact the local county magistrate, just directly…” The Emperor of Southern Qi swung his knife, and the secret guard understood.
“Oh no!”
A panicked voice came into my ears.
The Emperor of Southern Qi's eyes darkened. "Go and see what happened?"
The secret guard took the order and left, but soon came back with a grim expression.
"What's wrong?" The Emperor of Southern Qi was still thinking about Feng Yi.
"Your Majesty, there seems to be something wrong with the Imperial Concubine. Please go and take a look!"
The Emperor of Southern Qi now treated Zhangsun Lingyue as the apple of his eye. Upon hearing this, he walked out with an anxious look on his face.
Before entering the hall, I heard a burst of ghostly howling sounds coming from inside the hall.
"I didn't! I really didn't! I just hated Qu Li so much! If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be in this situation today."
Inside the hall, Changsun Lingyue knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
The sound of kowtows was infinitely amplified in the empty hall.
Her forehead was swollen and blood was oozing out, but she seemed not to feel any pain at all.
The Emperor of Southern Qi's eyes were gloomy. "What's going on?"
Qu Li, dressed as a young monk, hurriedly said, "In reply to the emperor, Long'an Temple is blessed by gods and Buddhas. A pilgrim once said..."
"Stop hesitating and speak quickly!" The Emperor of Southern Qi shouted sternly.
He saw that Changsun Lingyue looked very abnormal, as if she had gone crazy.
"A pilgrim once said that her husband had done something wrong and suddenly knelt on the ground at night, saying that he saw gods and Buddhas. When the gods and Buddhas blamed him, he behaved like the Imperial Noble Consort."
Qu Li's eyes were timid, and his voice became lower and lower.
The eyes of the Emperor of Southern Qi were full of suspicion, and his gaze was fixed on Changsun Lingyue who was still kowtowing. He was so suspicious that he couldn't help but want to find out why she was blamed by the gods and Buddhas.
Qu Li successfully aroused the suspicion of the Emperor of Southern Qi, and then stood quietly aside, waiting for Changsun Lingyue to reveal herself.
"I'm not saying I'm the reincarnation of a fairy! It's all Zhuona. She hated Qu Li and wanted to avenge her children. It's all her!"
When she said this, Qu Li clearly saw that the Southern Qi Emperor's face was so dark that ink could almost be squeezed out of it.
The smile on Qu Li's lips deepened.
The Emperor of Southern Qi was already very suspicious, and Changsun Lingyue's words had stirred up a hornet's nest, and the consequences were serious enough for her to suffer the consequences.
