Shen Qingwu and Xiao Qingyi were having dinner in Wangyue Tower. Looking at the gold, silver and jade articles seized from the *** mansion on the street, the people were pointing and talking, their faces full of anger.
"The net is about to close." Shen Qingwu has helped many people recently and can clearly feel that her cultivation has increased by leaps and bounds. When she woke up this morning, she found that she was about to break through the Nascent Soul stage and was about to become a god.
All these changes are also because Chu Guannan's dragon energy has been getting stronger and stronger recently. The combination of the two makes her seem to grow faster.
"How bloody will it be?" Xiao Qingyi murmured, supporting her chin.
Recently, the Xiao family’s business has also been affected.
The emperor wanted to do business with the barbarians. The imperial power was supreme, and the blatant monopoly made the Xiao family fill the hole.
Fortunately, the Xiao family had hidden a lot before the incident, so they were not seriously injured.
"It's just a few damned people who died." Shen Qingwu was much more indifferent.
"Is it King Yan?" Xiao Qingyi closed the window and asked Shen Qingwu in a low voice.
She had been secretly guessing for a long time, but didn't dare to ask.
Shen Qingwu agreed.
Xiao Qingyi's eyes suddenly lit up, she was right.
"The Xiao family should not go out on business recently to avoid hurting innocent people." Shen Qingwu put down his wine glass and stood up to leave.
…
"Your Majesty, something happened." It was late at night and the secret guards hurriedly woke up the sleeping emperor.
The emperor didn't respond for a long time. Zheng Hong stepped forward and pushed the emperor again, and he sat up sleepily.
Taking advantage of the fact that the emperor's property was confiscated and he was about to be executed, he claimed to be ill and handed over power to the prince. However, he did not expect that after lying down, he would actually feel a lot of discomfort in his body.
The emperor was woken from his sleep and looked very unhappy. "Why are you so flustered?"
"There's something wrong with the soul-calling flag, and several Taoists said they can't suppress it anymore." The secret guard said with a pale face.
He accompanied the emperor in and out of the underground palace all year round. Although he had good kung fu skills, after seeing those Taoists, he also realized that it was difficult for human power to compete with those demons and monsters.
The emperor became much more sober and walked quickly towards the underground palace.
…
"My father actually got up in the middle of the night. It seems that the story about the soul-calling banner is true." The prince looked at the superstitious banner that the queen had someone send out overnight, narrowed his eyes, and set it on fire.
"It seems that my father really wants to be immortal and live forever." The prince was in a trance. He seemed to see a baby in the ashes smiling at him strangely.
The prince's hand trembled and he loosened his grip, letting ashes fall to the ground.
The wind blew outside the window and the shadows of the trees swayed.
"It's going to rain in the capital." said the secret guard.
The prince felt sleepy and raised his hand, "Go away."
…
"Everything is almost ready." Chu Guannan sat in front of the window, listening to the storm coming in the dark night.
Shen Qingwu poured him a glass of wine and handed it to him, "May everything go well for us."
She was promoted again today and has reached the Wuxiang Mirror.
Such a rapid advancement made her feel dazed, as if it was making up for all the training she had worked hard on for hundreds of years but had failed to improve.
Although it was incredibly fast, she could feel that every step she took was solid.
"The queen finally chose to indulge her son." Chu Guannan said regretfully.
He originally thought that the queen's love for her son was worthy of admiration, but he didn't expect that they would end up being strangers.
"My father has already handed over the military order. This marriage is no longer useful to the prince. Now we just have to wait for him to take action." Shen Qingwu and Chu Guannan clinked their wine glasses, and both of them smiled as if everything was under control.
"You will be free soon, congratulations." Chu Guannan congratulated sincerely.
After getting to know Shen Qingwu, his luck improved a lot.
After Shen Qingwu joined the game, he pushed many things forward faster. He was able to predict the future and take precautions in advance, thus avoiding many troubles.
Most importantly, the military power obtained was more than expected.
Chu Guannan initially only had the military power under Xie Ming. Xie Yuening went through a lot of trouble and made great sacrifices before finally getting the military power of the Imperial Guard.
Now, because of Shen Qingwu, Xie Yuening also obtained the military power of the camp outside the capital. Adding the military power in the hands of Shen Lan, the entire Daxia is under control.
But what he always wanted was not to cause any harm to the people by not understanding a single soldier.
…
It was not until the third day after Shen Lan came back that he went to see Zhao Qiuyi.
Zhao Qiuyi's emotions could never calm down.
"I know you can hear me, Zhao Qiuyi." Shen Lan was very calm. They were the only two people in the room. "I won't pursue what happened back then. Qing Lei is still a child of the Shen family after all. He was innocent, but you hurt Qing Wu. The Shen family cannot keep you."
Zhao Qiuyi, with her eyes covered by a white cloth, subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound. She kept shaking her head and mumbling something, but no one could understand her and no one wanted to listen.
"Zhao Ruyun is your mother's child. She has lived in the Shen family for these years and has lived a better life than my daughters in the Shen family. Her life is worth it. After Qingwu's coming-of-age ceremony, I will send you back to the Zhao family. You don't have to worry about Qinglei's future." Shen Lan said the future arrangements for Zhao Ruyun without any emotion.
Zhao Ruyun kept shaking her head, but Shen Lan turned around and left.
The Zhao sisters who were eavesdropping at the door quickly hid.
Looking at Shen Lan's retreating figure, Zhao Ruyun's eyes flashed with cruelty, "Shen Lan is trying to force us to death."
As she spoke, her hand fell on her lower abdomen.
There was a glimmer of pride in his eyes, a look of determination to win.
Zhao Rufei nodded, "Sister, what should we do?"
Am I really going to be sent back?
"Don't be afraid, I'll find a way." Zhao Ruyun held her sister's hand soothingly.
…
The coming-of-age ceremony.
On the fifth day after Shen Lan returned, he finally found the opportunity to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for Shen Qingwu.
He also agreed with the emperor to propose marriage today so that the two children could get married as soon as possible.
The Shen family was busy early in the morning, and everything was going on in an orderly manner.
Zhou Silin, Xiao Qingyi and others also came to watch the ceremony with gifts.
Chu Guannan, Guo Chuan and others also came. Xie Enyu came to deliver gifts on behalf of Wang Shuying, and Su Zeyan came to ask for a favor.
"Now Shen Qingwu is the living devil of my Kyoto City." Guo Chuan said jokingly with a smile.
"Yes, now the people of Kyoto City love and fear her. Shen Qingwu can help them find missing people, but she can also see through the filth in their families." Xie Enyu couldn't help but continue.
Everyone was lively and cheerful.
Under the guidance of Xiao Qingyi, Su Zeyan finally arrived at Wutong Garden.
Ah Heng and Ah Huan hid behind the sycamore tree, making no noise, and newcomers did not notice them.
"Ms. Chen, I've been wanting to ask about my little sister Yaoyao. She's been acting strangely lately, always laughing weirdly and saying a lot of weird things." Su Zeyan handed over Su Zhiyao's birth date and asked Shen Qingwu to give him some advice.
As soon as Shen Qingwu took it, there was a commotion outside the yard.
Sun Wang hurried in and said, "Miss, many imperial guards have arrived. They say the general is secretly communicating with the barbarians, and that the barbarians are feigning surrender."
