Legitimate Daughter, Precious Phoenix - C286 Counterattack

Song Qingyu walked out of the house at an unhurried pace. As the curtain of pearls was lifted, the sky outside was already very bright. Song Qingyu looked towards the direction of the storage palace and saw smoke rising slowly.

Song Qing and Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

Taking a step forward, the curtain behind him was lifted with a ‘swoosh’, followed by hurried footsteps as he approached. Song Qingyu turned to look behind him.

Sure enough, Susining was heading this way.

Susning anxiously approached, he first glanced at Song Qingyu, and his gaze was like a knife that was resting on Song Qingyu’s face.

Susining hated Song Qingyu’s face.

Soon, he calmed his tone and said, “Miss Song’s chess skills aren’t bad either. She must have been imparted to her by a master teacher. May I ask who is Miss Song’s master teacher?”

Song Qingyu’s eyes were calm, as if he had expected Su Shining to ask, “I came from the countryside, and my father didn’t have the time to consider my chess skills. Anyone who heard of a master teacher would be considered a queen. ”

“That’s not right, your chess moves are very clear. It’s completely different from the way the empress plays chess.”

Song Qingyu pursed his lips and laughed lightly, “Miss Su, you really misunderstood me. How could I have any chess path? It’s getting late, I’m in a hurry to go back and check on the situation in the Palace, so I won’t disturb you any longer. ”

Song Qing and Yu lowered their eyes and bowed. He immediately turned around and left.

Su Sining refused to accept this. Still, he returned the greeting with a smile on his face, but his hands were clenched tightly in anger. The sharp pain in his nails reminded Su Shining to remain calm and not embarrass himself in front of Song Qingyu again.

In the room, Aunt Rong saw that Song Qingyu and Su Shining had walked far away. She put down a corner of the curtain and walked towards the empress. “The empress’s matters have been settled.”

The empress nodded her head and cast a sidelong glance at the chess piece on the table. “Go and check how Song Qingyu went from the Rookie Hall to the Phoenix Nest Palace that night and set the snakes on Si Ning.”

Susenin had always been a proud man, but he could not bear any provocation about Zuo Linyi.

Back then when Zuo Linyi taught her to play chess, he had told her that there were many traps. Zuo Linyi had specifically told Song Qingyu that there were many solutions, but according to his temper, he would only choose the most risky one. Ordinary people would not easily choose.

Therefore, Song Qingyu had left behind that son of his and purposely provoked Su Sining.

As she walked, she thought of Su Shining’s angry appearance. Although she did not know why she did this, she was in a very good mood.

The men from Phoenix Nest Palace saw her out, but they didn’t follow her. Song Qingyu was much more carefree when he was alone. The palace lamps along the road slightly illuminated the blue and white porcelain tiles.

The path was charmingly spread forward.

Song Qingyu’s pace slowed down again. She was in no hurry to return. After all, there was nothing to see about a dead body. She lowered her head, counting the bricks step by step.

As the empress dowager’s birthday feast drew nearer, Song Qingyu thought that it would be another good show.

Suddenly, he felt a chill. With the arrival of the noisy summer wind, Song Qingyu quickly reacted and dodged to the side. All she saw was a sharp dagger pass by her waist.

That person leaped into the air and attacked Song Qingyu again.

Song Qingyu used the moonlight to finally see the appearance of this person. Yue Zhijun’s body was clean, there were no traces of burns at all. Now, he had come with the determination to kill Song Qingyu.

She was very skilled, and her moves were extremely vicious as she closed in on Song Qingyu. Caught off guard, Song Qingyu retreated a few steps towards the rock garden behind him.

Song Qingyu was about to call for help, but he did not say anything at the same time.

“Why did you stop shouting?” Are you afraid that if people find out, the empress will expose her intention to kill me? I didn’t expect you to gain the trust of the empress so much that she would personally send someone to silence you. Since I can’t live, I won’t let you live! ”

Yue Zhijun laughed out loud.

Song Qingyu ignored her words as he swiftly dodged Yue Zhijun’s attack. At the same time, his right hand reached out with a silver needle, “Just because I’m not speaking doesn’t mean I’m being humble.”

Yue Zhijun smiled and looked at Song Qingyu’s movements, “Song Qingyu, I know you are very skilled, but if you don’t die tonight, I will tell the emperor that it is the empress and you that are joining forces to kill me.” Do you know what will happen to the queen, who has always been respected? She definitely won’t admit it. If you die early, you die late. It would be better to die together with me. ”

Song Qingyu laughed coldly, “I have one other choice, and that is to just kill you.”

Yue Zhijun had been in martial arts training since primary school and wore a set of experienced clothes. Her movements were very convenient. On the other hand, Song Qingyu’s hands and feet were tied at every turn. However, it did not seem to be at a disadvantage at all.

Yue Zhijun sneered, “Do you dare to kill me? If I die here … Can you escape? There are hands everywhere here, and whoever sees you will be doomed for sure. ”

Song Qingyu pulled out the silver needle and stepped forward. With one hand, he held the hilt of Yue Zhijun’s saber and pushed Yue Zhijun onto the fake mountain. With the other, he directly stabbed the silver needle into Yue Zhijun’s throat.

“Yue Zhijun, you’re a threat to the empress. I won’t let you leave this place alive tonight.”

As Song Qing Yu spoke, he sent the silver needles up without hesitation.

Yue Zhijun was astonished. She knew that Song Qingyu was skilled, but she did not expect him to be so skilled. It was like — a man who had been through a long fight.

Seeing the approaching silver needles, she immediately grabbed onto Song Qingyu’s hand, stopping him from getting any closer. “Even if Song Qingyu wanted to, you can’t escape. Everyone knows that you’ve been here before.”

“That’s my problem. You don’t have to worry about it.”

Song Qingyu used all his strength.

Yue Zhijun was completely controlled by Song Qingyu. When she felt his killing intent, she could not break free and shouted, “Help! Help!”

Unexpectedly, Song Qingyu released Yue Zhijun with his left hand and two silver needles appeared on his waist. She was about to pierce into Yue Zhijun’s fatal acupoint at lightning speed.

As long as she could kill Yue Zhijun straight away, Song Qingyu thought, there would be no proof for Yue Zhijun’s death.

Thinking of this, Song Qingyu moved even faster.

“Stop!” Suddenly, a loud voice rang out.

Song Qingyu’s movements paused slightly, but he did not stop there.

The person pushed the two away and Song Qingyu was pushed to the side by the sudden force.

He was only able to see the black clothed figure. Song Qingyu fell against the rock wall of the fake mountain and knocked his arm against it. He frowned in pain, but at the same time, he could clearly see who it was.

Li Yi was wearing embroidered clothes. By her side stood Zuo Ya Feng, who had already been scared silly.

She stood up in a sorry state. When she saw the newcomers, her face instantly lit up with joy, “Princess, Sir Li, you must avenge me. You saw that the Song Family’s doctor wanted to kill me.”

Song Qingyu’s eyes flashed with a sharp glint, but the killing intent in his eyes did not subside. She knew that if Yue Zhijun did not die, she would bring about endless trouble. Even the empress might be implicated tonight.

Hearing her words, Zuo Yafeng reacted immediately. Her eyes were filled with surprise as she turned to look at Song Qingyu, “You dare to kill people in the palace?”
