He favored his concubine and I cut off my wealth. Everyone in the mansion was in a panic.

Shen Qing was a little confused, "Who are you hiding from?"

Looking at Yun Xiaoxiao's appearance, she didn't look like she was hiding from an enemy.

Yun Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. She just lowered her head and took a sip of tea. After a long time, she responded: "A bad fate."

Hearing this, a person's name suddenly flashed in Shen Qing's mind -

Chu Lingyuan.

Because Chu Lingyuan came to ask her once before when he left the palace in disguise, why Yun Xiaoxiao did not return to Shengjing to reunite with her family during the New Year. At that time, Shen Qing had already had suspicions, but now, it has been completely confirmed. .

Before Shen Qing could continue to ask what happened between the two of them, a sound of breaking the guard was heard not far away: "Bad fate? Which kid has this thing between you and me? Master, I will kill him!"

After the words fell, Rong Heng sat next to Yun Xiaoxiao with bright eyes, looking at Yun Xiaoxiao expectantly.

Yun Xiaoxiao ignored him and changed the subject: "I will go to the border to rescue people tomorrow. I will tell you when I get back."

As soon as he heard this, Rong Heng exploded, "No! You've lied to me with this excuse eight times! Can you come up with something new?"

Yun Xiaoxiao obviously didn't want to coax him, "There is news about southern Xinjiang in the border area, and maybe there is also the whereabouts of the Gu insect."

Rong Heng hesitated, and after a moment he said with a righteous expression: "As a miracle doctor, it is my unshirkable responsibility to save lives and heal the wounded."

Because Yun Xiaoxiao was there, the matter of Miracle Doctor Rong Heng going to the border area was easily finalized early tomorrow morning.

It was getting late, Yun Xiaoxiao was preparing to sleep with Shen Qing, and Rong Heng was driven to the guest room again.

In the room, Yun Xiaoxiao would sigh from time to time, sighing so hard that her head was a little big. She grabbed her hand and said: "Cousin has always been cool and unrestrained, why are you so distressed this time?"

Yun Xiaoxiao responded very quickly, her tone full of depression, "Words of love can harm people, but my old friend will never deceive me."

"My cousin doesn't like him?"

This time, Yun Xiaoxiao was silent, so the answer was the opposite.

Since you like it but hesitate to move forward, is that because you are not sure about the other person's intentions?

No, according to Yun Xiaoxiao's temper, if she really likes someone, she will never be secretive. She will go directly to the person's yard and ask him bluntly if he likes her. This is what she can do.

Shen Qing recalled that the court officials had been urging Chu Lingyuan to establish a queen these days, and Chu Lingyuan also kept delaying it. It seemed that the two of them were interested in each other.

In this case, one can only hesitate about the other party's identity.

At the same time, Yun Xiaoxiao's response reached Shen Qing's ears, "He said that when he ascends to the throne, he will marry me as the Lord of the Sixth Palace, but I don't want to."

It’s not that I don’t want to get married, it’s that I don’t want to enter the palace.

Deep in the palace, it is a place where people can eat people.

Shen Qing is worried about another point. Chu Lingyuan is an emperor, so it is impossible for her to be alone like Lu Yan. And Yun Xiaoxiao's temperament makes it impossible for her to serve the same husband together, so this fate is difficult to become.

Shen Qing clenched Yun Xiaoxiao's fingers slightly, "Cousin, it's not that I want to stop you, but His Majesty's status is really special, so you must consider it carefully."

Yun Xiaoxiao sighed again: "That's why I'm wandering around and don't want to go back to Shengjing. If my brother hadn't gotten married, I would never have set foot here."

Shen Qing pinched her palm and stretched out his hand to smooth her frowning eyebrows, "Don't worry, cousin. None of us can say anything about relationships. Since we are still not sure about our feelings, then we can go out for a walk. Relax and wait until you really make up your mind, no matter what decision you make, I will support you.”

Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded, "I understand, okay, it's getting late, you should go to bed."

The night was getting darker, Shen Qing's even breathing sounded in her ears, but Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't fall asleep. There was no doubt that she had suffered from insomnia again.

…

On the endless grassland, Lu Yan was dressed in a purple robe. Blood dripped down the corners of his robe, dyeing the large green grassland blood red.

Fuso Gu hung an inch in front of Lu Yan, and the originally round body had become completely shriveled, as if only the last layer of skin was left.

Red blood light flashed, and Lu Yan's already exhausted body fell backwards uncontrollably.

At the moment when his body was about to fall to the ground, the long sword in Lu Yan's hand penetrated straight into the ground. At the same time, he used the force to stabilize his body slightly, making himself half-kneeling on the ground, and then struggled to stand up.

The next moment, a woman's silver bell-like laughter came from the opposite side.

This time, Shen Qing finally saw her face clearly.

She has peach blossom eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, and exquisite facial features. She is a complete beauty.

However, the blood-colored scorpion-like eyebrow pendant on her forehead added a bit of charm and coquettishness to her beautiful face.

This scene makes people subconsciously think of a description——

Femme fatale.

Seeing those faces completely, Shen Qing couldn't help but feel a little familiar——

Mo Wansheng.

The woman's face was actually 50% similar to Mo Wansheng's!

However, Mo Wansheng was born in Lingnan, so naturally he has nothing to do with that woman. So the only person who has a close relationship with her is Mo Wansheng's mother, the orphan from southern Xinjiang who has been dead for thirty years. , Fu Zhi.

Fu Zhi was born in Southern Xinjiang and was the princess held in the palm of the Fusang clan. Later, her family was destroyed and Fu Zhi escaped from Southern Xinjiang with two Gu beasts.

This is the little information they know.

As for the status of the Fusang clan in Southern Xinjiang, who the enemies of the Fusang clan were, and how Fu Zhi escaped from the heavily guarded Southern Xinjiang, they had no idea.

The beautiful woman in front of him was a new clue.

After a chuckle, the woman approached Lu Yan. As she walked, the centipedes and golden toads on the embroidered shoes under her crimson skirt kept appearing and disappearing, leaving a series of winding afterimages on the green grass.

In just a blink of an eye, the woman had already walked in front of Lu Yan, looking down at him, with a crazy smile on her beautiful face, "Hehe, even if she escaped from Southern Xinjiang, her descendants are still destined to come back and die."

Shen Qing was stunned... According to the woman's meaning, Fu Zhi's matter was probably related to her.

Although Lu Yan was in a loser's position, he was always at a disadvantage in terms of momentum, "So what? You haven't been able to kill her yourself."

Lu Yan's words made the woman's expression change, but she had no intention of attacking Lu Yan at all, but kept looking at Lu Yan, as if there was something she wanted on Lu Yan.

After that, Shen Qing could not hear the conversation between the two.

At the end of the dream, Shen Qing opened his eyes.

Looking outside, it was still dark, and Yun Xiaoxiao next to him was staring at the top of his head in a daze, looking like he hadn't slept all night.

Shen Qing first asked the night watch girl to call Chan Yi and a few others. When they came, he ordered in an orderly manner: "Chan Yi will do my makeup, Haitang and Mujin will go to inform Fu Yi and Li Yu, and we will set off immediately after the curfew is over."

Yun Xiaoxiao, who was originally unhappy, instantly became energetic after hearing this, "Where are you going?"

"Southern Xinjiang."

Yun Xiaoxiao glanced at Shen Qing's belly in silence, and the meaning in her eyes was obvious: Are you sure you are not kidding?

Shen Qing said "um", "A Yan needs me."

As for the rest, Shen Qing didn't say much, and didn't know how to say it.

Predictive dreams are absurd in themselves, and Master Fu's words make it sound even more absurd, but Shen Qing believes it.

Seeing this, Yun Xiaoxiao did not stop him and said directly: "Then I will go with you."

It just so happened that she did not want to stay in Shengjing.

She had not slept since the first day she came to Shengjing until now.

Shen Qing reminded him, "Southern Xinjiang is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will never come back."

Yun Xiaoxiao answered as a matter of course, "That's why I want to go with you to protect you."

In terms of means of escape, Yun Xiaoxiao has many more ways than Shen Qing.

Shen Qing could not persuade her, so he took her with him. At worst, he would leave her at the border.

When Shen Qing and his party left the house, a ray of light just appeared in the sky. Rong Heng yawned and went out, and saw three carriages parked at the door. It looked like they were going on a long journey.

"What are you doing?"

"Of course I'm going to the border with you."

Rong Heng looked suspicious, "Don't bluff me, your cousin is six months pregnant, are you sure she's sending me instead of me escorting her?"

Yun Xiaoxiao waved her hand, "Oh, it's all the same, hurry up and get on the car, or there won't be a place for you soon."

Rong Heng got on the pirate ship with doubts, and the three carriages rushed towards the city gate at the same time.

This time, in addition to Rong Heng and Yun Xiaoxiao, Shen Qing also brought Fu Yi Li Yu, twenty secret guards and ten days of food. It seems that he is going to travel overnight.

Fearing that his body could not hold up, Shen Qing also asked Fu Yi to prepare some pills and herbs for stabilizing the pregnancy.

Seeing that it was a carriage from the Jing'an Palace, the guards at the gate quickly let it go, and the three carriages drove quickly to the south and disappeared from everyone's sight soon.

...

At the same time, somewhere in southern Xinjiang, the scene in Shen Qing's dream was being played out in reality.

Lu Yan held the hilt tightly, supporting himself on the ground with one hand. Behind him were the dead bodies of the secret guards. All the people Lu Yan brought in were here, a total of six, not one less.

Seeing Lu Yan struggling, the beautiful woman only found it interesting. The little red snake on her wrist slowly approached the Fusang Gu, spitting out its tongue provocatively.

Lu Yan directly took the Fusang Gu back into his body and faced the woman and the snake Gu.

The woman smiled, "The most famous Fusang Gu in Southern Xinjiang is just like this."

Under the joint attack of her and Chi Yan, it only lasted less than half an hour before being defeated. It was really too weak to withstand a single blow.

His body had reached its limit, and Lu Yan didn't hold on any longer. He slightly loosened his hand and sat on the ground. Supporting the ground with one hand, Lu Yan looked up at the woman, "Now I have become your defeated general, so what do you want to do?"

Yesterday evening, just after Lu Yan wiped out all the small tribes with the Fusang Gu in his hand, he suddenly received some kind of call.

Lu Yan knew something was wrong and wanted to leave the area, but he was controlled by that power and passed through the strange forest. Six secret guards followed him in to protect themselves.

After passing through the forest, he saw the figure of the woman in front of him. Lu Yan fought with her fiercely, and finally all six secret guards died, and he was defeated by the woman.

Obviously, the so-called summoning was most likely the woman's psychedelic witchcraft.

"What? Of course, I will take you back to the palace for my entertainment."

Although he knew it was useless, Lu Yan still said something nonsense to test it: "I am the King of Jing'an of the Great Chu. If you capture me, there will be a war between the Great Chu and the Southern Xinjiang."

Hearing Lu Yan's words, the woman seemed to have heard a funny joke, and laughed more and more loudly, "There will be a war? I took great pains to capture you, isn't it just to declare war on the Great Chu?"

Before Lu Yan could speak, the woman continued to speak, her clear and pleasant voice carrying a domineering attitude that looked down upon the world, "Only the weak will yearn for peace, the strong should unify the world!"
