From beginning to end, Zhao Ji actually didn't pay much attention to Hua Wanqiu's life or death.

He knew his old comrade too well. With Luo Yan's intelligence, how could he give up his lifelong pursuit for a woman?

When he was young, he could watch Hua Wanqiu leave because of his ambitions. When he was old, how could he be manipulated by Hua Wanqiu for the sake of our sect?

Zhao Ji's focus has always been on our sect. Normally, our sect has little connection with the court, so he could turn a blind eye. But now, our sect's hands have reached the Prime Minister's position, which has already exceeded his tolerance.

Luo Yan's expression also became cold, and he slowly uttered three words, "Pingling Jun!"

"It's him again!"

Zhao Ji snorted coldly. He was already disgusted with his son, who had a high opinion of himself. With three thousand followers under his command and a well-known reputation among the people, this was the understanding of an ordinary person like Zhao Qi. But as long as one knew the inside story, they would know that he was just a puppet clown who thought he could maneuver between major forces.

Our sect approached Luo Yan in order to support Zhao Qi's rise to power. Luo Yan is the confidant of the King of Li. With his support, along with the cooperation of the Wei and Han families, it would not be difficult to overthrow the Crown Prince and seize the throne. However, how could our sect understand the friendship and ambitions between them as monarch and minister?

Zhao Ji couldn't help but sneer, "The Zhou royal family is becoming more and more useless. Even rats like our sect can cooperate with them!"

Luo Yan pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Your Majesty! Should I pretend to inquire about their internal affairs?"

"No need!"

Zhao Ji directly waved his hand to interrupt, "Our sect is just a small matter. Focus on implementing the reforms!"

"Yes!"

Luo Yan slapped his forehead, "By the way, Your Majesty, there is another matter! Last month, our sect made contact with me and asked me to compile a list of all the descendants of Zhuan Xu in the city of Jiang. I don't know the purpose if they are below the Embryonic Breathing realm."

"A list of Zhuan Xu's descendants?"

Zhao Ji was also a little puzzled. He stroked his beard and thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out.

"I know this!" Ying Wuji stood up. This was an easy question.

He briefly recalled and repeated everything Jiang Taiyuan had told him.

"King Zhou had a dream of being assassinated!"

"The assassin is a descendant of Zhuan Xu!"

These two pieces of information, combined with Nangong Ling, the descendant of the Martial Saint, leading a group of bandits, and the appearance of four martial energy auras, made the conspiracy too obvious.

Zhao Ji asked, "Is there any more detailed information?"

Ying Wuji shook his head, "No! He said he also accidentally heard about it. Perhaps only Nangong Ling and that divination official know what King Zhou specifically dreamed about!"

Zhao Ji nodded, "It seems that Nangong Ling came this time to find the assassin. However, there are many descendants of Zhuan Xu, with fourteen surnames of Ying and more than twenty large clans of Mi. There are quite a few gathered in Jiang this time. But... why does he only want information about those below the Embryonic Breathing realm?"

Zhao Ning smiled and spoke, "Your Majesty, I have a guess."

Zhao Ji nodded, "You can say it!"

Zhao Ning smiled and said, "Since King Zhou is making such a big fuss, it shows that he believes in this dream. But how could someone below the Embryonic Breathing realm possibly assassinate King Zhou? The one who kills King Zhou must be a master, but if he doesn't look for someone above the Embryonic Breathing realm, it means he is certain that this person has not yet broken through the Embryonic Breathing realm. The reason he is so confident, I guess, is because of the grade of the Spirit Embryo!"

Ying Wuji's eyes lit up, "Are you saying that this person has a very high grade Spirit Embryo, and there are very few such people in the world, and it doesn't match the information about the assassin. So it is certain that he has not yet broken through the Embryonic Breathing realm, but there is hope to condense a high-grade Spirit Embryo."

"Yes!"

Zhao Ning nodded, "Based on my estimation, it is at least a Spirit Embryo of the third grade or above."

Ying Wuji became a little nervous, "Could it be that he wants to use the bandit's tomb to directly hunt down the genius?"

"No!"

Zhao Ji directly denied this speculation, "Nangong Ling may dare to do this, but the Zhou royal family definitely wouldn't! The Zhao family is the royal family of the Li Kingdom, and the Mi family is also a prominent clan in the Chu Kingdom. There are no less than a hundred people entering the tomb this time. If the Zhou royal family dares to do this, the Li and Chu Kingdoms will dare to completely bring down the Zhou royal family."

"That's true!" Ying Wuji nodded. The Zhou royal family did not have the strength to do so. If they did, they wouldn't need to join forces with our sect to do these despicable things.

Joking aside, a large-scale massacre of Zhuan Xu's descendants in Jiang City would require a lot of courage.

Zhao Ji's expression became serious, "However, it is not easy to approach the bandit's tomb. You younger generation don't need to worry about the matters of the martial world for now. Focus on whether you can obtain the energy fortune from the Confucian, Mohist, and Legalist families!"The influence of the Bai family's energy cannot be underestimated. If it can be refined, even if it cannot break through the Lingtai stage, it will still greatly benefit cultivation. Even Zhao Ji, the king, is very envious of these energies.

"Yes!"

"Oh, Luo Xiang!"

Zhao Ning suddenly spoke, "What role did Li Caiyan play in this matter?" This was one of her concerns, after all, she had promised Li Caimei.

Luo Yan pondered for a moment and said, "She should be no different from a physician and has not done anything else!"

"I see!"

Zhao Ning breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Majesty, what do you think of Li Caiyan..."

Zhao Ji frowned slightly. "Colluding with the enemy for me is indeed unforgivable, but considering she has not committed any major mistakes, she will be confined to the Li residence and not allowed to leave without permission."

"Yes!"

"You all can leave. I have important matters to discuss with Luo Xiang!"

"I take my leave!" Ying Wuji cupped his hands.

Zhao Ji laughed and scolded, "You brat, you're getting used to it! Go back quickly!"

How could he not get used to it? Although there were interests involved, overall, his interests were highly aligned with the Li royal family. Even though Zhao Ji had only become his father-in-law for a day, he had enough reasons to protect himself. Unlike that old bastard from Kingdom Qian, who only had Ying Wuque in his heart. Even obtaining the official seal was a difficult task. Suddenly, he had a backer, and Ying Wuji felt much more relaxed, even his steps became lighter.

After leaving the Chongli Palace, Zhao Ning poked Ying Wuji's waist. "Ying brother, Ying brother! Do you have any extra jade soaps? Can you give me a few?"

As the Crown Prince, jade soaps were just tools to support the royal family's financial power. So she didn't pay much attention to the jade soaps themselves. But as a woman, suddenly getting rid of the burden of political affairs, she couldn't resist the temptation of something that could make people smell good. She couldn't wait for the day when they would be mass-produced!

Ying Wuji shrugged. "Aren't you too greedy? I worked hard day and night and only made a few. How many do you want with just one request?"

Zhao Ning became a little anxious. "We have such a good relationship, isn't it worth a few pieces of jade soap?"

"Fine! Come with me to the bookstore!" Ying Wuji nodded. This time at the Chongli Palace, although Zhao Ji was still hiding and concealing things about the marriage, his performance in other areas was not bad, especially in the matter of Hua Wanqiu, which was basically resolved.

"Ying brother, you're generous!" Zhao Ning didn't hesitate to flatter.

Ying Wuji lowered his voice and asked, "By the way, Zhao brother! Now that we're on the same side, can you reveal why the princess of your Li royal family is always staying hidden? I've been in Kingdom Li for almost twenty years and have hardly seen her. I remember that in the previous generations, this wasn't the tradition!"

"Well..."

Zhao Ning hesitated. "I'm not very clear either. I don't know why, but most of the princesses in the palace are weak and sickly, and they are lazy by nature, so they spend most of their time in the palace recuperating."

Ying Wuji was a little surprised. "Is that so?"

Zhao Ning nodded. "This is also a secret of the royal family. Ying brother, please don't mention it outside. After all, it's not a good thing."

"Don't worry!"

Ying Wuji nodded and pondered. The Li royal family had at least a dozen princesses, and if they were all weak and sickly, it couldn't be explained as a coincidence. Who dared to lay hands on the Li royal family? But fortunately, there were two exceptions. Zhao Ling, although more outstanding in political affairs, also had top-notch cultivation. As for the princess who refused to reveal her name, her talent in cultivation was even more terrifying.

...

After a stick of incense, Zhao Ning happily left Shangmo Bookstore with a bag of jade soaps and drove straight back to the palace. Ying Wuji stretched lazily, planning to find Hua Chao to have a good chat about Hua Wanqiu, but after searching for a while, he couldn't find her. He asked and found out that Bai Zhi had accompanied her to the theater troupe.

After all, a few days ago, the theater troupe had just opened and had encountered a robbery at the Liu family. It was indeed necessary to go and appease them. The theater troupe was not far away and was in the safest area, and with Bai Zhi accompanying them, it was unlikely that anything would happen. With nothing else to do, Ying Wuji hummed a tune and returned to his study.

The Bai family's grand event was about to begin, and he would probably be busy for several days. Before it started, he decided to write some scripts or catch up on reading "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio." After all, the business at the bookstore had been getting busier and busier recently. But as soon as he sat down, he remembered something.

Old bastard's fanfiction...

Thinking of this, he quickly opened the drawer. But after opening it, he found it empty.

"What the hell!"

Ying Wuji was stunned, feeling a chill running up his spine. This...

Where are my fanfictions? Did someone break into my house?

It must have been last night when the people from the bookstore went to pick him up from the Flying Fish Guards...He was extremely anxious. If this were to be known by others, where would he put his face? Not to mention his face, his life might not even be guaranteed.

The noble son of Kingdom Qian, the husband of Kingdom Li, was actually secretly writing erotic stories about his father, stepmother, and an unknown person named Iron Bull?

This is f*cking ridiculous...

Is this the end of the world? Ying Wuji was struck by lightning and slumped directly onto the chair.

At this moment.

【Essence】: +1+1+1+1+1+1...

【Energy】: +1+1+1+1+1+1...

【Spirit】: +1+1+1+1+1+1...

Ying Wuji was dumbfounded. Although he roughly knew that this was his marriage news and the emotional fluctuations caused by the Lihuo Palm Technique, who could guarantee that there weren't one or two people who were aroused by the erotic stories he wrote? He plopped down on the table, feeling as if he had lost all hope! Now, there was only one question left in his mind. Who was it exactly! Who had the audacity to come to the bookstore and steal a stack of erotic stories?

...

"Caimei!"

"Caimei!"

"Look at the good thing I brought you!"

In the small courtyard of Qingjiang Palace, Zhao Ning pushed open the door and entered.

Li Caimei, who was originally looking out the window and doubting her life, suddenly felt her heart race when she heard Zhao Ning's voice. She became nervous and her palms instantly started sweating. She was truly flustered. Since Ying Wuji came this morning, her heart had never been at ease. She had been replaying the conversation she had with Ying Wuji in the morning, trying to figure out where the problem lay. Why did Ying Wuji say that he would help her escape from the deep palace? And why did he say that the King of Li was hiding his highest-ranked daughter from him? This person... Could it be that he really knew the truth? But how could Zhao Ning possibly tell him such a life-or-death matter? What was Zhao Ning's purpose in telling him this? Or... Did I misunderstand? After all, although he said a lot, he never directly said that Zhao Ning was a woman, nor did he say that he was Li Caimei. But with this reason, there was simply no way to explain what he said!

Li Caimei thought for a long time but couldn't come to a definite conclusion. Her head felt heavy, and she just wanted to get a good night's sleep and sort out her thoughts after waking up.

As a result, when Zhao Ning pushed open the door like this, she instantly became alert.

What should I do? Should I tell His Highness that I already know?

No! What if I misunderstood?

Or... Maybe Ying Wuji didn't find out from Zhao Ning at all. If I accidentally let it slip in this situation, it would definitely put me in an extremely disadvantageous position. Even if Zhao Ning treats me well, it would be difficult to save my life.

Forget it! I'll just pretend not to know for now!

"Your Highness! Didn't you say there was something important today? Why did you come back so early?" Li Caimei smiled lightly, appearing quite relaxed and no different from before.

Zhao Ning looked at her curiously and asked, "Caimei, why is your face so pale?"

"Is it? Is it?" Li Caimei's heart tightened, then she smiled and said, "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night!"

Zhao Ning didn't pay too much attention to it. "So that's why. Guess what good thing I brought you?"

"What?" Li Caimei was actually quite curious. Zhao Ning had sent her quite a few compensatory gifts for her, but they were all of average quality and were directly delivered by palace maids. Only the ones he truly thought were good would he personally hand over to her. It seemed like there was another good thing now.

"Jade Soap!" Zhao Ning smiled and took out a box of jade soap from his pocket, teaching Li Caimei how to use it.

Li Caimei looked at her fair and slender hands and became quite fond of this item. She asked, "Where did this jade soap come from? Why have I never heard of it before?"

"Guess!" Zhao Ning smiled.

"I guess..."

Li Caimei thought for a moment. "The Hundred Schools Gathering is coming soon, and envoys from various countries should have arrived. Among them, the Kingdom of Qi values etiquette the most, so it should be brought by the envoy from the Kingdom of Qi!"

"No, that's not it!"

Zhao Ning smiled and said, "If you guess like this, you won't be able to figure it out. Let me tell you directly, this was made by Brother Ying."

Brother Ying! Ying Wuji? Li Caimei's heart skipped a beat. She recalled everything and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. Because all the things Zhao Ning personally gave her recently had nothing to do with Ying Wuji.

"Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio"! "The Peacock Flies Southeast"! And now this jade soap!

Before, she thought it might be because Zhao Ning admired Ying Wuji. But now...

Could it be just a coincidence?

Li Caimei forced a smile and said, "It's a very nice item. Thank you, Your Highness!"

Seeing her expression, Zhao Ning couldn't help but think to himself, She doesn't seem to be happy enough even though she says she likes it!

Zhao Ning thought for a moment and smiled again, "There's another gift, this one you'll definitely like!"

"What is it?"Li Caimei pursed her lips, looking very expectant, but in her heart she kept muttering: Please don't let it be Ying Wuji again, please don't let it be Ying Wuji again!

Zhao Ning waved his right hand, and a thick stack of paper appeared out of thin air on the table.

"I went to Ying Xiong's study this morning and took out all of his rough drafts while he was away. Take a look first, and I'll give them back to him after you're done!"

Li Caimei: "......"

She became more and more uncertain. In these years in the deep palace, she had actually lived a relatively peaceful life. But now... she had a vague feeling that there was a big plan targeting her being implemented. Did Ying Wuji get lost when he was looking for Zhao Ning, or did Zhao Ning instruct him to come in? What exactly did these two people want to do?

Seeing her face turning paler, Zhao Ning couldn't help but worry: "Are you sick? Why do you seem so absent-minded?"

Li Caimei pursed her lips. Is he testing me?

She shook her head: "It's nothing. I had some trouble with my cultivation last night, but resting will be enough. The relationship between His Highness and Young Master Wuji is getting closer. They even dare to steal books."

Since you're testing me, then I'll test you too.

Zhao Ning thought she was joking and smiled in response: "Can we call it stealing when it comes to scholars? Even if Ying Xiong is here, I can take them away in front of him. What's the difference between him and me?"

This statement was sincere. Ying Wuji's soapstone business had directly alleviated the financial pressure on the royal family. He was one of their own.

Li Caimei asked: "What if Young Master Wuji asks His Highness for something valuable?"

Zhao Ning laughed: "As long as he doesn't want the Great Li's kingdom, I'll give him whatever he wants!"

Li Caimei: "!!"

This...

Give him whatever he wants? Does that include the nominal wife? But didn't you say that you would set me free when you take power?

Seeing her look confused, Zhao Ning curiously asked: "Caimei, what's wrong with you?"

Li Caimei: "......"

But judging from her expression, it doesn't seem like that's what she meant. Could it be... there's a misunderstanding here?

She couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness! Have you made some kind of deal with Ying Wuji?"

Zhao Ning nodded: "Sort of! That's what we mainly discussed today!"

Li Caimei: "......"

She thought of Ying Wuji's words from this morning: In the afternoon, I will talk to the Great Li about a major matter. He may not immediately agree with me, but it's only a matter of time. Let's keep a low profile during this period of time, and remember to continue displaying the red and gray stones. After all, we need to give him some face. Is it settled just like that?

Her voice trembled: "So, how did it go?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Zhao Ning couldn't help but feel happy and relaxed: "It went very well! Ying Xiong's actions today will definitely alleviate the urgent situation of the royal family and have a profound impact."

Li Caimei quickly asked: "What conditions did Ying Wuji propose?"

Zhao Ning smiled: "Ying Xiong is interesting. He made Father King swear an oath the first time they met!"

"An oath!"

Li Caimei was shocked: "What kind of oath? Is he crazy to force Father King to swear an oath?"

Zhao Ning shook her head with a smile: "It's not a particularly heavy oath, just a promise from Father King that no matter which daughter of his Ying Xiong wants to marry, Father King cannot refuse."

After saying this, she also felt something strange. But thinking about it, her teacher who taught her the technique of transforming her fetus had once said that he was the only person in the world who mastered this technique and would only teach it to her. Unless someone leaked the secret and taught Ying Wuji this technique, he wouldn't know about her being a daughter. Now, everyone who knows about her being a daughter is on her side and under her control. Moreover, transforming the fetus was one of the most difficult techniques among the thirty-six techniques of the Heavenly Gang. It took her a long time to master it. How could Ying Wuji possibly know? She was just scaring herself!

But when Li Caimei heard this sentence, it sounded different to her.

She breathed a sigh of relief. So he wants to marry Zhao Ning, and he didn't mention me. He simply wants to set me free. But that doesn't make sense. He has shown so much sincerity, is he just thinking of setting me free? It's hard to understand... But it's good that the person he wants to marry is Zhao Ning. After living in the deep palace for so long, she didn't want to be remarried to someone else.

Li Caimei felt a little relieved and smiled slightly: "In that case, congratulations, Your Highness!"

"It is indeed a great joy!"

Zhao Ning nodded in agreement, then smiled and said: "By the way! There's another good news!"

Li Caimei asked: "What is it?"

"Your sister!"

"My sister!"

Li Caimei suddenly became nervous and looked at Zhao Ning with anticipation.Zhao Ning smiled and said, "Today, because of Brother Ying's matter, Father King seems very happy. With financial support, Father King doesn't even care about our sect. I took the opportunity to mention your sister's situation. Although Father King is displeased with her, he only ordered her to be confined and did not impose any substantial punishment."

"Really!"

"Of course!"

"That's great!"

Li Caimei was extremely surprised.

Zhao Ning smiled and said, "I was also worried before, about how to save her. But now I realize that many things are insignificant compared to the bigger picture. As long as the important matters can be resolved smoothly, many difficult things we thought of can be easily solved."

"Is that so..."

Li Caimei pondered secretly. Could it be that they are planning to use this incident to help me regain my freedom? It seems like it, what Zhao Ning said matches what Ying Wuji said. Seeing her improved expression, Zhao Ning stood up and smiled, "I've said everything I needed to say! By the way, Caimei, the grand gathering of the Hundred Families is approaching. It's a good opportunity for me to make a breakthrough. I have already closed myself off in name, so I won't be staying here for the next period of time."

Li Caimei nodded, "Yes! Your Highness, being busy with political affairs and having more exposure to the thoughts of the Hundred Families will indeed help with your breakthrough!"

Zhao Ning stood up, "Since that's the case, I won't disturb your peace. These scattered manuscripts should be enough to keep you entertained. You can transcribe them, and I'll return them to Brother Ying tomorrow."

"Yes! Your Highness, take care!"

Li Caimei saw Zhao Ning off, and most of her burden had been lifted. She took a deep breath of the air in the courtyard, feeling that the world was so beautiful. Whether it was in front of her or in front of King Li, Ying Wuji never mentioned forcefully marrying her. But his implication, along with Zhao Ning's hint, both indicated that they wanted to help her regain her freedom as soon as possible.

That's great!

She lay on the bed, feeling a bit tired but also relieved. Talking to Ying Wuji and Zhao Ning was exhausting, every word had to be carefully considered. She didn't have to beat around the bush so much when talking to Zhao Ning before! But thinking about it, as someone who would become a king in the future, how could she not learn these things? Moreover, this matter was originally a secret, so it was normal for them to speak indirectly. Although it wasn't necessary, she could still understand. It just exhausted her.

After lying for a while, she sat up from the bed and hummed a tune while picking up the scattered manuscripts stolen by Zhao Ning.

She was pleasantly surprised, "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio! It's so thick, there must be at least three volumes. I can enjoy it in advance."

The autumn afternoon was not scorching, with a gentle breeze. It was perfect for reading. Li Caimei leaned against the window and read carefully. Although the intention was far from the classics, the stories were extremely vivid and interesting. She was happy as she read, with a smile on her lips. But as she read, the smile on her face disappeared, replaced by an indescribable shock.

"King Qian!"

"Lin Qing!"

"Iron Bull..."

These are...

At first, Li Caimei thought that these were materials written by Ying Wuji as a hostage to maintain sensitivity to the situation in his homeland. But as she read further...

"Hoo..."

"Hoo..."

"Hoo..."

Li Caimei kept exhaling, her face turning red. This plot was really exciting! She remembered when she was a child, she accidentally found a picture book in her sister's room and was reading it with a flushed face when her father caught her. Then Li Caitan was hung up and beaten for an hour.

Ying Wuji only wrote words, but they were even more... But why did Ying Wuji write such vulgar things? And it was arranged with her father and the favored concubine? Could it be for revenge? Impossible! It wouldn't achieve revenge, it would only anger King Qian and harm Ying Wuji. Could it be just to vent her anger?

But writing these things, it doesn't seem like it would vent any anger!

Li Caimei touched her hot cheeks and felt that she couldn't continue reading. But just as she was about to put it down, she saw a sentence from Ying Yue in the book: "The Li family sent you here, they really planned it meticulously." As soon as she thought of this, she became furious. Watch me tonight...!

"Wait!"

"The Li family?"

Li Caimei's heart tightened. This Lin Guifei is actually from the Li family? She knew quite a bit of information about the outside world through Zhao Ning, but most of it was just trivial matters from the countryside, rarely mentioning prominent families. In other words, what she knew was what Zhao Ning allowed her to know. She had heard some things about the Qian Kingdom's royal family, but she only knew about Ying Wuque, who made Ying Wuji's situation very difficult, and she didn't know about Lin Guifei's background.

Lin!Li Caimei remembered that when she was young, her sister told her that there have been many geniuses in the clan in the past hundred years, and three of them possessed the Kun Cheng physique. The so-called Kun Cheng physique is an extremely rare constitution, also known as an ancient bloodline. Kun represents the Kun in Qian Kun, which symbolizes the heaven and earth, yin and yang, and parents. Kun is the origin that nurtures all things in the world. The Kun Cheng physique can only be possessed by women, and the remaining children will have extremely high talents. If the child's father also has an ancient bloodline, the probability of awakening the child's ancient bloodline will increase to an extremely terrifying level.

The most famous Kun Cheng physique in history is the Huangdi's main concubine, Lei Zhu. She gave birth to two sons for Huangdi, Xuan Xiao and Chang Yi. The former inherited Huangdi's world, while the latter, although only serving as an assistant, was also talented and had a son named Zhuan Xu. The Li family's bloodline has a great connection with the Kun Cheng physique. Even if the Li family women do not awaken the Kun Cheng physique, they can nourish their babies with their own origin. Among the three Kun Cheng physiques mentioned by Li Caitan, two of them are sisters. Because of the Kun Cheng physique, the two sisters received more love and restrictions since childhood.

Li Caitan was unwilling to accept her predetermined fate and directly used medicine to make herself infertile. As a result, she received severe punishment, but she finally gained her freedom. When she traveled the world, she met a lover, but later discovered that he was after her Kun Cheng physique. When the lover found out that her Kun Cheng physique was destroyed, he immediately wanted to abandon her. However, he did not say it directly but treated Li Caitan even better. Li Caitan was completely infatuated and eventually did something that angered the heavens and the people under the influence of her lover.

That incident almost destroyed the entire Li family. In the end, Li Caitan was sent to the palace, and Zhao Ji intervened to resolve the situation. Since that day, Li Caitan has become the self-destructive person she is now.

Because of her Kun Cheng physique, those who know the truth cannot doubt Zhao Ning's gender. This is the fate of the two sisters.

Li Caimei had asked her sister before who the other Kun Cheng physique belonged to, but Li Caitan replied that she didn't know, only that she left the Li family for some reason and changed her surname to Lin.

It turned out to be this Lin Guifei. Ying Wuque's awakening of the ancient bloodline was not accidental. So, what does this article written by Ying Wuji mean? This... definitely isn't a simple erotic story! A winner! A Kun Cheng physique!

Did he help her because he also wants to have a son with an awakened ancient bloodline? Li Caimei's expression froze, her hands and feet turned cold, and for a moment, she felt overwhelmed by despair, as if her whole body was enveloped in it.

"I have been trapped in the deep palace for so many years. Don't you plan to let me go? Zhao Ji, did you really trade me away?" For a moment, she even had the thought of ending her life.

But she quickly realized that the situation was not so bad.

"If Zhao Ji really made up her mind to trade, why didn't she tell me directly? She could have used my sister's life to blackmail me!"

"She probably didn't promise Ying Wuji or intend to force me, so she didn't say it directly. She just implied it like this, probably wanting me to make the decision myself, so even if it fails, no one will be embarrassed."

"No wonder she was so subtle when mentioning this matter. It turns out it's because of this."

"Also, no matter what Ying Wuji did, even if it's important to the royal family, it can't compare to a Kun Cheng physique!"

"In this case, it's not difficult to guess Ying Wuji's intentions!"

"After all, he is just a hostage from another country. It's already difficult for him to marry Zhao Ji. How could he forcibly marry himself?"

"So, the initiative is in my hands!"

"As for Liao Zhai Zhi Yi, Peacock Flying Southeast, Yu Zao, and that poem about the market... he is seducing me!" Li Caimei shook her head, feeling that using the word "seduce" was a bit excessive. After all, Ying Wuji was quite elegant, and these gifts truly touched her heart. But when she thought about the fact that he gave her these gifts because of the Kun Cheng physique, bitterness filled her heart.

"Let it be!"

"Let nature take its course!"

"After all, he didn't force me."

"My sister survived, and he also put in a lot of effort."

"And he took the initiative to use this play to indirectly tell me that he came for the Kun Cheng physique. It's also a rare honesty."

Li Caimei sighed lightly, looking at the setting sun on the horizon. The palace would soon become cold again.

...

【Hint】: Emotion fluctuation value exceeds 90, randomly obtain the Earth-ranked spell "Thirty-Six Techniques of Heavenly Gang: Instant Blossom."

Ying Wuji: "???"

He was dumbfounded. Who is this kind person who sent me such a popular gift? What the hell is going on? He rubbed his head, unable to figure it out even if he thought until his head was bald. Who could it be?The Thirty-Six Techniques of Heavenly Gang: Instant Blossom - It can make all plants grow rapidly and quickly adjust, mastering the secrets of withering and flourishing. It can even absorb life force from external objects and infuse it into oneself or others, healing and replenishing mana, a divine technique.

If it were before, Ying Wuji would probably be grinning from ear to ear, happy to obtain such a powerful spell for free. But now, he felt a bit anxious. Even a fool could tell that someone who mastered this spell must be a big shot.

Why would a big shot have such strong emotional fluctuations towards him from a distance? Damn it! Without thinking, it must be because of that explicit text! Did the big shot's defenses break because of that explicit text? Was it Lao Bi Deng or Lin Guifei? Who was the person who stole the text? Was it Thirteen? Or was it Thirteen who mastered the Instant Blossom technique? He overheard the actor reciting the script to Tieniu with great enthusiasm, but he himself hadn't submitted a new script yet. Then he became anxious and took the opportunity to steal the script while he was in prison. This explanation seemed more reasonable and easier to accept.

"What the f*ck!"

"Oh no!"

Ying Wuji leaned back in his chair, staring blankly at the ceiling.

At this time, the voice of the servant came from outside the door.

"Young master, Luo Ming is here to see you!"

"What is he here for? Tell him to get lost!"

"Yes!"

The servant responded and left. But after a while, Luo Ming's voice came over, "Get lost? Why should I get lost? This is my big sister's data. Why does Ying Wuji have the right to drive me away... Hey! Ying Xiong, you're here. I haven't seen you in a long time. I missed you so much!"

Ying Wuji didn't say anything, just looked at him scrutinizingly.

Luo Ming felt a little embarrassed under his gaze, and his voice became softer, "I admit, the things I did before were really disgusting! But it was all because my father forced me to do it. I didn't have any bad intentions!"

Ying Wuji sneered, "Just admit that you did it?"

Luo Ming pondered for a moment, "Ying Xiong! I have to tell you why I did these things. Why should I be blamed for what Luo Yan's son did? The identity of Luo Yan's son and Hua Chao's brother has been completely severed because my sister has cut off all ties with Luo Yan. So you have no reason to drive me away!"

"You f*cking..."

"I know what you want to say. You want to say that Luo Yan's son is Hua Chao's brother, right? But think about it, my sister has already severed her father-daughter relationship with Luo Yan, which means the identity of Luo Yan's son and Hua Chao's brother has been completely cut off. So you have no reason to drive me away!"

Ying Wuji twitched his mouth, "Your father sent you to study with a famous teacher, and you learned how to argue?"

Luo Ming modestly waved his hand, "Not just arguing, as a top student of the Confucian school, I also have to debate with the masters at the Hundred Schools Gathering!"

"Privileged dog!"

Ying Wuji cursed, feeling hurt in his heart. He only obtained a spot by copying a famous work, but this argumentative guy got it directly through connections. But he didn't drive Luo Ming away, after all, this guy was just a bit indecisive, but he was not bad at heart.

Luo Ming curiously looked around, "By the way, Ying Xiong! Where is my sister?"

As soon as the words fell, Hua Chao's voice came from outside the door.

"We're back! Wuji, look what I brought for you!"

Hua Chao returned to the study with light footsteps, walked up to Ying Wuji with her hands behind her back.

"Brother, I'm here!"

"Shh! Don't speak yet!"

Luo Ming: "..."

Ying Wuji looked at Hua Chao's gentle smile and pondered for a while, "Bun!"

"No, guess again!"

"Mask!"

"Ah?" Hua Chao was stunned for a moment, then took it out from behind, it was indeed a mask used for singing.

She was a little surprised, "You guessed it so quickly?"

"I deliberately guessed twice to give you some face!" Ying Wuji smiled and took the mask, singing definitely required some sense of ceremony, either makeup or wearing a mask. Most of the current pigments were harmful to the skin, so they chose masks. The paint on this mask hadn't dried yet, it was obviously just painted. He looked at Hua Chao's hand, which was still stained with colorful paint.

"Is it pretty?"

"It's pretty!"

"You're lying to me. It's obviously so ugly."

"Even if it's ugly, I still like it."

Ying Wuji smiled and waved his hand, "Go wash your hands quickly, it's harmful to your hands."

"Okay!"

Hua Chao nodded and went to wash her hands. Since joining the Flying Fish Guards, she had more smiles on her face than before, and occasionally she had a girlish feeling.

Bai Zhi glanced at Hua Chao, then at Ying Wuji, and muttered softly, "How can she like something so ugly? When did she go blind?"

Ying Wuji: "..."

Hua Chao finished washing her hands and came over, then looked at Luo Ming, "Hey? When did you come?"Luo Ming: "Damn it..."

He rubbed his temples: "You're my sister, I should be able to visit you anytime, right?"

Hua Chao smiled and nodded: "Indeed!"

Luo Ming glanced around surreptitiously and asked in a low voice: "Sis, what on earth happened? Today, father came back from outside and immediately put that fake Hua Wanqiu under house arrest. If anyone is found helping her to leave, they will be punished severely. They argued for quite a while..."

Hua Chao looked puzzled: "Really?"

Luo Ming couldn't help but say: "Isn't it because you told father something that made him realize what he was doing?"

Hua Chao shook her head in confusion, not understanding how things had come to this point.

Luo Ming, feeling helpless, decided not to mention it anymore.

Instead, he turned to Ying Wuji: "Brother Ying! Actually, there's another thing I need to tell you!"

"Go ahead!"

"After the announcement of your engagement to the princess, many people were dissatisfied. However, the emperor was very firm, so they didn't dare to oppose openly. Instead, they resorted to some underhanded tactics. I'm afraid there will be quite a few people coming to challenge you in the coming days. Moreover, rumors have already spread that ever since you almost died in the High-class Brothel, you've been impotent!"

Ying Wuji was furious: "Damn it! They say I'm impotent?"

Hua Chao looked worried: "People coming to challenge?"

Bai Zhi looked dumbfounded: "Huh? The young master is getting married?"
