Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C1039 1038 Crown Prince Longdi

“Yan Yuan, if it really comes to that day, and I don’t want to live like that, promise me, promise me, okay?”

What responded to her, was still a long period of silence from Yan Yuan.

This feeling of being powerless made Yan Yuan feel endless torture. He thought that he was omnipotent, but on his own wife, he had never truly done anything for her.

How was he supposed to retort that he was going to kill her in the future?

“Yan Yuan…”

It was as if a whole century had passed before she finally heard Yan Yuan’s soft reply, “Okay.”

It was just one word, but it seemed to have used up all the energy in his body.

His eyes were bloodshot as he released her. His eyes were filled with self-blame and guilt. He gently caressed her face and said, “I’m sorry for making you suffer so much.”

Liu Ruo Qing shook his head, “What does this have to do with you, it’s just my bad luck.”

She said those words calmly and easily. After experiencing so many things, she had already met with the worst case scenario. No matter how bad it was, it would only result in death. She had already thought things through.

It was just that she didn’t know if the fool in front of her would really let her go that day.

She didn’t tell him to keep him alive. Like he said, sometimes it was easier to die than live, and she couldn’t be selfish enough to make decisions for him.

She said she was out of luck, probably because the best luck she’d had in her life had been to meet him and make him fall in love with her.

Yan Yuan smiled gently, but his eyes were still filled with bitterness. “Then you also promised me to bring you to find Shen Gu Zi, and it’ll be two days, three days, two years, three years, twenty years, thirty years if you can’t find him in a single day …”

Liu Ruo Qing nodded his head, then said: “But the matter at Yizhou has not been resolved, can you really leave?”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already arranged everything here. If anything happens, Sixth Brother will send someone to find me.”

He gently kissed her soft lips and said: “In the palace, there are Sixth and Eighth Brother, Eighth Brother, and even the Prime Minister Wang. Currently, the Kaiser has sufficient power to control the entire situation, so even without me, the world would not be in chaos.”

Liu Ruo Qing still had some doubts in her heart, and wanted to say something, but wanted to change his mind, so that Yan Yuan could change his mind, but she heard Yan Yuan continue: “Let’s go find Shen Gu Zi, if we are lucky, we would really meet him.”

Liu Ruo Qing, hearing the hope in his words, could not bear to erase this tiny bit of hope, so after hesitating for a while, she nodded and agreed.

Seeing that she had agreed, Yan Yuan’s face lit up, and immediately went to the study room to arrange his travel.

On the same day that they were leaving, Yan Xiao came to King Jing Palace, he did not ask Yan Yuan why he wanted to leave, but at this crucial moment, he left the imperial hall, thinking that he had met with some huge matter.

Yan Xiao did not ask, but told Yan Yuan the news that came from the New Yi Country. “The New Yi Country has already found out that the hidden underground water tunnel at the borders of the Yizhou, New Yi City, was secretly dug by the Second Prince. Right now, the Second Prince is controlled by the King’s men.

Hearing that, Yan Yuan laughed, and a look of ridicule appeared on his face, “An unfavoured prince, if you don’t want it, then you don’t need it, this is also called sincerity.”

His eyebrows twitched as he looked at Yan Xiao. “The mastermind behind that water channel, is it really the Second Prince?”

An unfavoured Second Prince did not have anyone he could use. It was not reasonable for such a person to have the ability to quietly dig such a underground tunnel near the Yizhou’s border without anyone knowing.

Hearing his question, Yan Xiao also laughed. The two brothers had a tacit understanding with each other, and said: “I have secretly sent people to get close to the Second Prince, if he really is the scapegoat, then at this time, I’m afraid that he will be silenced.”

The conviction of the Second Prince shows that he has no room for rebuttal. Under the premise that he was found to be the mastermind, the other party killing him would only raise suspicions that the Second Prince was the scapegoat. The other party would not be so foolish.

Yan Xiao understood what Yan Yuan meant, and laughed: “Regardless of whether or not the other party will kill to cover it up, we have to let the Second Prince know that someone wants to kill him. Only when he knows that his life is threatened will he speak the truth.”

After Yan Yuan finished listening to what Yan Xiao had to say, a look of understanding appeared on his face.

If there was no killer, then he would create them. If he let the Second Prince know that he was already an abandoned son, then what else could he care about?

“Then I’ll leave these matters to you, Sixth Brother.”

“Alright, I won’t ask too much about your leave of absence. Be careful on your way.”

“Yes.”

Yan Yuan brought Liu Ruo Qing and left the capital, while people from the New Yi Nation sent people to escort the Second Prince to the capital to ask for forgiveness.

At the same time, the person that Yan Xiao had sent to find the Second Prince had already returned to the capital and silently snuck into the Prince Rui’s Palace in the darkness.

“Pavilion Master.”

“Have you found anything?”

“According to the pavilion master’s instructions, this subordinate disguised himself as an assassin to assassinate the Second Prince to silence the Second Prince, while another group of us secretly saved the Second Prince.

Long Di made him bear the crime, and promised him, that he would take this opportunity to save him. This time, when our people went to kill him, he thought that Long Di was the one who went back on his word.

After hearing the person in front of him reply, Yan Xiao smiled with satisfaction. “You should go down first, send someone to keep an eye on Long Di, he probably has something big going on in the next few days.”

“Yes.”

Yan Xiao held onto the informant in his hand, and his long fingertips lightly brushed the edges of the informant. His clear and cold pupils slightly contracted, and became deep and unfathomable.

One day, Yan Xiao left the study and headed towards the courtyard Qin Sang lived in. At the entrance of the courtyard, he coincidentally met Qin Sang who was walking out.

Seeing him, the bottom of Qin Sang’s eyes lit up, and her face revealed undisguised joy: “Xiao, you’re looking for me?”

“Yes.”

He nodded indifferently. The cold lines on his face revealed a hint of indifference. “There’s something I need to ask you.”

Qin Sang’s gaze flashed, but on the surface, she asked: “What is it?”

Yan Xiao walked into the courtyard and sized up the arrangement of the courtyard without batting an eyelid, and asked carefully while looking like a machine: “Are you used to living here? Has the mansion’s servant neglected you? ”

This was the first time Yan Xiao asked about her place since he followed his to the capital, and he was secretly happy.

“It’s quite good. Since they knew that you brought me back, they naturally wouldn’t neglect me.”

Between her words, intentionally or unintentionally, she expressed her close feelings towards Yan Xiao. Lifting her eyes to look at this angular and distinct handsome face, her cheeks slightly flushed.
