Heartless Phoenix Queen - C193
As for the Violet Garden, it guarded Helian day and night, and its servants and maids were not allowed to come close to serve Helian. They really did not want any information to leak out.
In order to express his sincerity, Zi Yuan ordered the army to retreat and set up camp again in the direction of the State of Yue. At the same time, he released Feng Lingxue.
It was unknown whether he had tricked Feng Lingxue, or whether Feng Lingxue had played the trick, but when he mounted the horse, he solemnly said that he would definitely bring back the antidote within five days. The serious expression on his face caused the Violet Garden’s heart to pound wildly. “Could it be that this goddess-like young duke has set his sights on me?” Or had he taken a fancy to Helian? If that was the case, then the weird actions from before could be explained, but … That’s impossible…
As a person born from two lifetimes, Zi Yuan was completely idiotic towards relationships. She and Helian had wandered around for so many years in order to cultivate properly. How could she have known that this deity-like young duke had indeed taken a fancy to her? As for Helian, he just loved the house more than anything else.
It is said that the person in love is a fool, while the person in unrequited love is a fool among idiots. Although Feng Lingxue had political motives when he first came into contact with the Violet Garden, he felt that he was completely captivated by this woman to this day. Let’s not talk about the shameful things when he was drunk. Just based on the interactions he had with her, he couldn’t help but admire the calm and decisiveness she had. When the two of them fell into the trap, he pretended to be unconscious for two days and secretly observed them. Later on, she thought that her life was going to end in that unfathomable trap. She told him of her origins, and it made him exclaim in astonishment. He held an indescribable admiration for her. And her deep affection for Helian moved him. That was why he had decided to give up his plan of holding this woman hostage in Dongping and instead had sent her back to Helian. He knocked her out, then used his lightness skill to jump out of the trap. He summoned his men to investigate Helian’s whereabouts, and sent her a letter containing arrows. After that, he carried her out of the trap, summoned his war horse, and rushed her all the way to the camp of Helian. He had extraordinary hearing. He had heard her whisper in Helian’s ear that she wanted to capture him. Thus, he willingly became their hostage. The tea leaves in his bag had a name that suited his mood, it was called “Lovesick”.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he did, it was impossible for him to obtain this woman. This woman belonged to that person called Helian Xuan Yi, so he couldn’t help but have a little bit of love for her. A man who was able to fall deeply in love with such a woman and was willing to battle the battlefields and dominate the world should be a decent man, right? Although Zi Yuan had done a great service to the Northern State of Yue, this man called Helian Xuan Yi was indeed someone to be reckoned with.
However, as the young duke of Dongping, what he could do was to protect the peace of Dongping and protect the king’s position. His political views would conflict with this woman and her man. At that time, he knew that she wanted the king of the Empire of Dongping to bring her away, which was why he took her away halfway. He just didn’t expect that he didn’t manage to get past the beauty barrier.
Although Feng Lingxue was surprised that the normally domineering Zi Yuan was suddenly showing signs of weakness, in his heart, he subjectively believed that it was because Helian Lie was on the verge of death due to the poison. He was completely carried away by Zi Yuan’s emotions and did not doubt the authenticity of the poison in the slightest.
The request that Zi Yuan had made seemed somewhat harsh and difficult to fulfill, but in reality, Feng Lingxue was a little ‘guilty of a guilty conscience’. It was true that Dongping had an intention to cooperate with WestLi before, and the king of Dongping had a good personal relationship with Murong, especially regarding the ‘medicine’. Feng Lingxue knew that the king of the Eastern Ping Kingdom also possessed the poison that had been poisoned. He felt that he must go and talk to the king. He had to confirm whether the ambush on Helian was by someone from the West, or was actually the king of the East Mountain!
On the other side, Feng Lingxue hurriedly went to find her monarch. On the other side, Lan Cang was secretly trying to find the traitor. He had no choice but to go to Zi Yuan in hopes of obtaining her help.
“There’s no hurry to do this.” Lan Cang didn’t expect Zi Yuan to say there was no hurry. Now that this traitor had harmed his best brother and the king of the Northern Yue was lying on his sickbed, he couldn’t wait to find out who this traitor was and hack him into a thousand pieces! But Princess Violet Garden actually said no! “Go!” Urgent!
“But if I don’t settle this matter, I won’t be able to sleep well!” “I haven’t slept properly for quite a few nights.”
“Lan Cang, then write down a list of the people you have questions in mind for me. Then, leave this matter to me. Sleep well.” Zi Yuan wiped the sleeping Helian Lie’s forehead.
“Alright!” When Lan Cang heard these words, he became somewhat happy. Zi Yuan was so smart, she could definitely find that traitor. That way, she would be able to avenge Helian! As he thought this, he picked up the pen and wrote down a few names for the Violet Garden. He then left the tent in a slightly relaxed manner.
When he returned to his tent, one of his men came forward and asked, “Chief, you seem to be in a good mood. Did the king cure the poison?”
After being asked like this, Ye Blueblue’s face darkened once again. With a downcast face, he said, “Not yet. It’s just … ah, I won’t speak with you anymore. Anyway, Zi Yuan will take care of this matter.”
“Head, how dare you call her by her name!”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Helian is my brother. Of course I can call my sister-in-law by her name. Alright, alright, I won’t talk to you anymore. Tonight, I can have a good night’s sleep.”
Zi Yuan looked at the blue and white names on the list and silently set them on the fire.
Helian Lie had already changed into night clothes and was preparing to secretly patrol the camp. He had already found out who the traitor was. Moreover, this traitor was not one of the people listed in the list. In Lan Cang’s heart, this person was an important brother.
“Xuan Yi, do you think that Lan Cang would hate us for lying to him like this?” Zi Yuan asked worriedly.
“Lan Cang is a very good brother of mine. He will understand my painstaking efforts.” Helian Lie patted Zi Yuan on the shoulder. “It’s going to be hard on you again. I’m going out.”
“En, you should be careful since the arrow wound is real.” Zi Yuan drew a kiss at the corner of his mouth, and Helian Lie returned her kiss with a long tongue before he let her go.
“When the baby is born, you must make it up to me.” Helian said with a smile.
Violet Garden pushed him away with a smile. Then, her eyes turned cold as she said, “I feel that it’s better if you kill him today.” so that we don’t get into too much trouble. ”
“Mm, that’s fine too.” Helian Lie muttered to himself irresolutely, “This way, Lan Cang won’t feel injured. At most, he’ll feel the sadness of having lost a brother.”
“Why don’t I do it?” Zi Yuan looked into Helian Lie’s eyes. She was slightly worried that the injury on his right shoulder would affect his performance.
“You’re about to be a mother, so leave these bloody things to your father.” Helian kissed her on the forehead and jumped out of the large tent window.
Zi Yuan, on the other hand, pretended to be waiting for Helian, who was lying on the sickbed.
They were actively trying to eliminate the spies that Xi Li had planted to bribe them, while the people from Xi Li were plotting to make a comeback.
Murong Xiu had found out from the people he had planted in Blue Sky’s body that Helian had been poisoned. Although he was very surprised that he had been poisoned by the poison, this news was too shocking for him.
He felt that he needed to make good use of this opportunity to snatch the Violet Garden, as well as the Northern Yue.
However, he had also guessed that the person who used the poison was most likely the king of the Eastern Ping Kingdom who thought that he was very capable even though he wasn’t very smart. Only he would have the poison that he had used before.
This king wanted to frame them and make them think that Xi Li was going to fight them again. This way, if he came to deal with Xi Li, they would withdraw their troops from Dongping Kingdom.
“Foolish!” Mu Rong Xiu scolded the king in his heart.
However, it was also thanks to the move of the king of Eastern Ping Kingdom, that in a few days, Helian Profound Wings would ascend to the west! Hahaha! The more Murong Xiu thought about it, the happier he became. The more he thought, the more he needed to take advantage of this opportunity to make his move.
That night, Murong Xiu mobilized his forces and attacked the northern and western border small cities. The North Vietnamese garrison troops were caught off guard and utterly defeated. In one night, North Vietnam lost three small cities.
In the wee hours of the morning, the northern army, which was still in the East Peak Region, received an urgent report from the border of North Vietnam. General Ye Blueheaven was extremely worried, but he noticed Violet Garden had a crafty smile on her face. Under the light of the lamp, her handsome face carried a cold and elegant expression, as well as a mocking smile.
“Princess, should we mobilize some troops to reinforce the border?” Lan Cang asked with concern.
“Let them continue their sneak attack.” Zi Yuan snorted coldly. “When the time is right, we’ll make him spit out everything he eats!”
“Report!” Another person shouted from outside the tent.
“Speak!” Zi Yuan replied loudly.
“Reporting to the wangfei, I just found out that Zhao Mu, who was by the side of Great General Ye, is dead.”
“What?” Ye Bluelight was startled. He cupped his hands together with Zi Yuan and went to check his account.
Zi Yuan did not follow him out. Instead, he seemed to mutter to himself, “He fell into a trap.”
An extremely low “hmm” sound came from the poisoned king. Then, he tightly held the hand of Zi Yuan under the blanket.
The next step was to hope that Feng Lingxue would bring the news they had hoped for.
Feng Lingxue galloped like a galloping horse, and after a full day and night, he finally arrived at the king’s side, asking him for the antidote for the poison.
At first, the king of the Empire of Dongping was playing dumb with him, but afterwards, he could not help but reveal his thoughts.
Indeed, just as Feng Lingxue had guessed before, the king of the Eastern Ping Kingdom had used the news that Feng Lingxue had planted in the side of Ye Blueheaven to ambush the Helian Profound Wings.
“Hahaha, Helian Xuan Yi is about to die, that’s really good news!” The king of the Dongping Kingdom laughed so hard that tears nearly flowed out of his eyes.
“Brother Wang!” Feng Lingxue said anxiously, “Helian Xuanji cannot die!”
“Why can’t he die? For a woman, he attacked our borders, causing the people of our borders to lose their lives. A war demon like him dying is not something to be regretted!” The king of the Empire of Dongping said angrily.
“You’re changing your appearance to help that Murong Xiu!” “Royal brother, did you accept that Murong Xiu again?”
“No, I thought about this idea for a long time before coming up with it. With the death of Helian Xuanyin and the collapse of the Northern Yue, my anger has been released. ”
“Then have you thought about it? If Helian dies, can the Northern Yue really collapse? Okay, even if North Vietnam really did collapse, what about West Rift? Brother Wang, you should know about Murong Xiu’s wolfish ambitions, right? If Xi Li becomes strong and encroaches upon the Northern Yue, will there still be a place for us, the people of Dongping? ” As Feng Lingxue spoke, her tone became agitated and her voice became louder.
“But, with him having profound wings, will he also have a place for me? He could call for a woman! ” The king of the Dongping Kingdom’s voice also became louder.
