he'll be fine."The tone unconsciously carried a slight hint of sourness.How could he possibly have hoped Jun Liye would live by smearing lard on herIt's best if she dies, that way she wouldn't have t...Seeing her worry, Jun Liye couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips in a faint smile. A gentle warmth welled up in his narrow eyes, "Don't worry, the toxins in my body have been removed, and I'm fine with using my skills. It's just this height, it won't be a problem for me."
"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Su Qingying finally let out a slight sigh of relief.
She secretly cultivated her internal energy, lightly tapping her toes, and she and Jun leaped onto the opening of the ice cave on the roof one after another.
They landed lightly, and to their surprise, they emerged from an abandoned well that had been left to decay for a long time. Surrounding them were rows of houses, desolate and eerily silent, devoid of any sign of life. It appeared as if no one had lived there for years, truly unsettling.
"Having been a mouse for half a month, I can finally crawl out and breathe fresh air! So comfortable!" Su Qingying stretched languidly, half-closing her beautiful eyes to meet the light, as lazy and carefree as a cat.
“So this ice chamber’s exit actually connects to the Cold Palace's dry well. Shangguan Jianren's mind is truly meticulous!” Shangguan Jinghong raised her eyes and looked at the rows of buildings around her, a sense of familiarity washing over her. The corners of her mouth curled up, a chilling edge to her lips.
Ordinary people wouldn't come to this Cold Palace at all, let alone know that there were so many dry wells here. No one would ever guess that beneath these wells was a connected ice chamber and secret room.
This Shang Jianren, he's really thoughtful! He even kept this from me, the "prince" who's lived in the palace for over ten years!
Jun Liye leaped out, clutching Shangguan Yanan's corpse in his arms. Without the poison's suppression and restraint, his body felt inexplicably light.
Lowering her head, she looked at the gradually warming body of Shangguan Yanran in her arms. Jun Liye's brow furrowed tightly as she quickly left the cold palace. "Don't say so much, let's go back home. Once Mother Fei's body leaves the ice coffin, it won't be able to maintain its form for long. We have to bury Mother Fei and Father together as soon as possible."
Having been forcibly separated from his family and loved ones by Shangguan Jianren for so long, the empress dowager must be deeply missing her husband. He must reunite them!
"We should waste no time, let's go!" Su Qingying nodded and followed Jun Liye's pace.
With Jun Jinghong, someone familiar with the secret passages of the palace, around, it wouldn't be difficult to leave the palace unnoticed by the Imperial Guard. Soon enough, they had completely left the palace grounds.
The Regent Prince's Mansion was desolate and dilapidated, with everything in ruins. All the furniture had been overturned and destroyed, as if it had just gone through a catastrophe.
"Good heavens! How did the Imperial Residence become like this Was it ransacked by Shangguan Jianren" Su Qingying strode into the Imperial Residence, her phoenix eyes radiating killing intent.
Damn it! You don't need to guess, it's Shangguan the scoundrel! Truly worthy of being called a scoundrel, so damn shameless!
She, Su Qingying, is the future mistress of the Prince Regent's Mansion! Doesn't he know that all the wealth of the mansion belongs to her!
This is all money, money! Every single thing in the prince's mansion is priceless, and he just smashed it all!
Her heart was bleeding!
"Hmph, with me gone, Shangguan Jianren naturally wouldn't let go of any opportunity to strike at me. Besides, he must think that this time we are bound to die, so what would he have to worry about" Jun Liye was not surprised at all; he had expected this situation long ago.
However, seeing the heartbroken girl beside him, his face still twitched involuntarily, and a strange mixture of amusement and pity filled his heart.
This girl, I really don't know what to say about her.
Let's go and have a look at Rong Fei in the secret room. " Jun Jinghong didn't seem to care at all. He was preoccupied with finding a wife, not even glancing at the heartbroken woman before him. He rushed into the palace.
"Rong Fei! Rong Fei!" As soon as Jun Jinghong entered the courtyard, he began to call out along the way.
"Master! Jing Hong! Is it really you" A faint voice reached her ears, causing Xuen Yuan Rong Fei's eyes to well up with tears. She immediately opened the secret chamber door and ran towards the source of the voice.
"Rong Fei, I miss you so much!" Finally seeing that familiar figure, Jun Jinghong's heart warmed. He tightly embraced Xuen Yuan Rong Fei who had thrown herself into his arms, his eyes slightly red.
“Where have you been all this time Why haven't you given any news at all I was so scared and worried about you!” After being worried sick for so many days, Xuan Yuan Rong Fei seemed to want to vent out all her grievances from the past half month, crying so hard that she couldn't even speak.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm late. I'm so sorry." Jun Jinghong was heartbroken, apologizing repeatedly while constantly kissing her face and holding her tighter.
Finally, when Xuan Yuan Rong Fei had cried enough, she remembered that Su Qing Ying and Jun Li Ye were standing beside her. She suddenly felt a little embarrassed, her pretty face flushed slightly.
Wiping away her tears, she looked apologetically at Su Qingying and Jun Liye, “Right, Master and Grandmaster, I’m sorry, yo didn't manage to protect the palace well, Bei Ling Huang he…” "We all know, we don't blame you, we will settle this score!" Su Qingying smiled lightly, shaking her head.
Sheng Shangjian was a despicable person. How could such a delicate little girl possibly stop him
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Rong Fei blushed and nodded heavily. Her gaze shifted to see the stunning woman being held in Jun Li Ye's arms, causing her to be taken aback for a moment. "Who is she..."
"It's a long story, let's first go together to bury A-Li's mother. We can tell you everything on the way." Su Qingying held her hand and led Su Junli towards his father king's tomb.
A-Li's mother concubine has been out of the ice coffin for so long, if she doesn't go into the ground soon, she might turn into something else.
……
"I didn't expect that I would actually become family with my master, it's really great." After burying Shangguan Yan and hearing Su Qingying recount the whole story, Xuan Yuan Rongfei's eyes lit up, excitedly grasping Su Qingying's hand, "Master, now you are my sister-in-law."
Su Qingying playfully poked her forehead with her finger and asked with a twinkle in her phoenix eyes, "By the way, Rongfei, have there been any major events while we were away for these past two weeks"
Xuan Yuan Rong Fei rubbed her aching forehead, a pair of glistening eyes clouded with mist, gazing at her reproachfully.
After some deep thought, she shook her head in annoyance and mumbled with a pout: "This, I don't know. Ever since the Northling Emperor raided our house last time, I've been hiding in the secret room. I'm cut off from the outside world and have no idea what's going on."
After a moment's pause, her mind suddenly lit up as if she had just remembered something important. She hurriedly said, "Oh, right! Last time I snuck out, I heard people outside talking everywhere. It is said that the emperor of Beiling had appointed five hundred thousand troops to leave the country half a month ago and haven't returned yet."
"Five hundred thousand troops What is he trying to do Is he going to war" Hearing this, Su Qingying and the others all changed their expressions, their faces becoming solemn.
Hearing this, for some reason, Su Qingying's heart suddenly tightened. It was as if something had gripped her heart, making her inexplicably apprehensive and uneasy.ky on his face."Second Prince, you're awake" A soft and indifferent female voice drifted in, and Su Huitian only then realized there was a woman sitting in his room at some point.The woman was dressed...
