After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Shen Qingci should have thought of this when she just heard the queen hysterically saying that she would not let go of every bloodline of the saint.

She was so frantic. Since she planned to take Sheng Tingye's life and make a human face Gu, she should also have a backup plan for the other two princes and the only princess Sheng Yizhen.

Coupled with the disappearance of Xiao Jiu that was reported in the palace before...

Shen Qingci's heartbeat skipped half a beat.

Not only Xiaojiu, but also Duan Wang!
Although they only met once, Shen Qingci had a good impression of Sheng Tingye, the eldest brother. Princess Duan was also pregnant, and she didn't want anything to happen to them!
And Sheng Yizhen.

Although the little girl is willful and has never dealt with Jiang Yuwan in the past, she is actually not bad in nature and is even very lovable sometimes.

Shen Qingci grabbed Sheng Tingye and said, "I'll go find Xiaojiu, and you go find the eldest brother and the princess."

Of course, Sheng Tingye also realized the seriousness of the problem. He was originally worried about Shen Qingci chasing him out alone, but he believed in Shen Qingci.

Moreover, King Duan and Sheng Yizhen really needed him to send people to deploy.

"Okay, go ahead."

Sheng Tingye gave Shen Qingci trust and respect.

Shen Qingci nodded and casually pulled the long sword from the waist of a secret guard behind him. He was about to climb up the wall when he remembered that the saint was still here.

The situation was urgent and he couldn't take care of much. Although he knew that there were Sheng Tingye's secret guards outside, Shen Qingci did not forget to tell Liusu before leaving: "Good Liusu, take good care of grandpa for my mother."

She wanted to say saint, but she was afraid that Liusu would not understand the powerful relationship. Then she thought that since her daughter-in-law called the saint father, Liusu could not call him grandfather.

In her desperation, she didn't even think about it.

I just feel that this relationship is the simplest, and it is also the easiest for Liusu to understand the importance of saints.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came out, everyone present looked like they had been struck by lightning.

The saint, who had just looked like an emperor, was almost shocked.

Sheng Tingye, who was already about to go out, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

After receiving the order, Liusu nodded obediently, then took two steps closer to the saint with his snake as thick as a bowl, and looked at the saint as if he was offering a treasure.

I got a great grandson for nothing and suddenly became a saint for my grandfather: "..."

The "culprit" Shen Qingci had already climbed up the courtyard wall and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

She wasn't chasing around like a headless fly.

Instead, they followed the traces of the fight between Qing Yi and Qing Yu and chased them all the way.

Her goal is Qing Yi.

It was impossible for Xiaojiu to disappear from the palace quietly. Instead of trying every means to get the news from the almost crazy Queen, it would be better to start with Qing Yi.

Judging from the respectful attitude the Queen and Princess Jian'an had towards Qing Yi before, Qing Yi knew everything about them.

To find Xiao Jiu, Shen Qingci chose to ask him directly.

The reason why she didn't ask Sheng Tingye to send more men to chase him, but chose to chase him herself, was because she still had something to talk to Qing Yi alone.

The two of them were fighting quite a lot, and Shen Qingci easily caught up with them.

But before she could get closer, besides the sound of swords clashing, she heard Qingyu's nagging while fighting.

"Hey? Your name is Qing Yi, right? By coincidence, my name is Qing Yu."

"I heard that your brother's name is Qinghe? By coincidence, I have a brother named Qingyun."

"Look, we are both young people, so we are very destined."

"Why don't we turn around and ask for help?"

"I'm eighteen this year, what about you? It seems like you are older than me, so I have to call you big brother."

Qingyu on the opposite side seemed to be unbearable, and even the movements of his hands became more murderous.

Seeing this, the careless Qingyu was also preparing to strike at the right moment.

When Shen Qingci saw this, he shouted sternly: "Qingyu, step back."

When the two people who were fighting were inseparable, they both stopped what they were doing with a tacit understanding when they heard this sound. They stepped back a few feet and stood on the left and right ends of the roof of a City God's Temple.

Shen Qingci waved his hand towards Qingyu: "I'll come."

If it were in the past, Qingyu might still hesitate in this situation, but ever since she witnessed the terrible scene in the Chu Palace where Shen Qingci was angry with her master, Qingyu looked at Shen Qingci more cautiously than she looked at Sheng Tingye, how could she dare to act like that? He used to act a little naughty in front of her like that.

"Yes, yes, you come."

Qingyu nodded hurriedly and retreated from the battlefield in a flash.

When only Shen Qingci and Qing Yi were left on the roof, Qing Yi, who took a moment to breathe, turned her wrist and already had the jade flute in her hand.

Shen Qingci remained unmoved and asked, "Why did you help Queen Daqi?"

Qing Yi had no expression on her face and said concisely: "Repay the favor."

Shen Qingci thought for a moment and then understood.

"Because Sheng Tingjing killed your brother Qinghe, and Sheng Tingzhao killed Sheng Tingjing for you?"

How should I put it, in his mind, maybe avenging him could be considered a kind of kindness.

This was Shen Qingci's guess, but Qing Yi's expression was enough to show that her guess was correct.

At this point, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

Things weren't as bad as she originally thought.

But on his face, Shen Qingci raised his eyebrows and said, "They killed Sheng Tingjing and you wanted to repay them. What if I killed Gu Qiuli?"

"Do you still have to offer me as a Bodhisattva?"

Qing Yi frowned, as if he felt insulted.

But before he could take action, Shen Qingci raised his wrist and swung out a sword energy. The majestic sword energy cut off half of the beam.

Qing Yi was suddenly startled.

After all, the Shen Qingci he saw outside Netherworld Valley before was still a weak woman who was kidnapped by Xiao Wenyan out of necessity.

I never thought that this weak woman would turn out to be a master!
Moreover, it is definitely above him and the annoying guy who just called himself Qingyu Yaoyao!

Qing Yi's fingertips moved slightly, about to pick up the jade flute.

Shen Qingci suddenly said: "Your poison is useless to me."

"Do you want to know why?"

Qing Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Under the moonlight, there was a touch of disdain on his handsome face, obviously not believing Shen Qingci's words.

After all, he was originally the leader of the Dongyi clan. Although his talent was not as good as that of his elder brother Qing He, he was definitely unmatched by others.

The man he had just fought with was so good at Qinggong that he had to keep close to him to fight, leaving him no time to activate the Gu snake.

Moreover, all the poisonous poisons he had on him were used up while chasing Gu Qiuli, and there was nothing suitable for refining the poisonous poisons on his way to Daqi.

Otherwise, it would not be the turn of the little girl opposite to say something shameless about not being afraid of his poison.

But before Qing Yi could return his sarcasm, Shen Qingci's next words made him shudder.

I saw her holding a crisp sword flower casually, her tone was cold, but her words were extremely indifferent: "Do you know why I didn't kill you before?"

Tsing Yi frowned.

Ridiculous.

This woman is crazy enough.

But the next moment, Shen Qingci's behavior made him dumbfounded.She raised the sword, but instead of stabbing him, she pricked her fingertips, then pulled off the scarf to cover the blood stain, and threw it towards him.

"Since you are a member of the Dongyi tribe, you must be familiar with this."

To be precise, the aura of Lihuozhu is familiar to the Dongyi people.

Even if the Lihuozhu was taken out of Netherworld Valley by Marquis Pingyang in the early years, the last generation of Dongyi people had never seen the Lihuozhu with their own eyes.

But Tianchi, which has contained the Glass Fire Beads for hundreds of years, is still there, and the aura of the Glass Fire Beads exuding from it will last forever.

Recalling that in Yunzhou, Qinghe didn't even see Shen Qingci's blood, and almost recognized her just by the smell of her body.

Gu Qiuli was also a genius in poison poisoning, and had been imprisoned in Netherworld Valley for so many years as a medicine man, so he could recognize Shen Qingci at the first sight when he saw her reborn.

Although Qing Yi's attainments in poison are not as good as Qing He's and Gu Qiuli's, they are enough.

"have a look."

Ever since he saw Shen Qingci's attack, Qing Yi had been extremely wary of Shen Qingci. In addition, he himself was a poisoner, so he might not be wary of what Shen Qingci threw at him.

Therefore, he turned his wrist holding the jade flute and directly used the flute to firmly catch the veil.

Although he had concerns, he also knew that it would not be easy to escape from Shen Qingci, not to mention that there was the annoying Qingyu staring not far away.

Under Shen Qingci's gaze, Qing Yi carefully picked up the veil.

At first, he was very confused about Shen Qingci's behavior, but as the bloody aura dispersed, his expression gradually changed.

"how?"

Qing Yi's lips trembled: "This is..."

Shen Qingci raised his eyebrows: "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

Others may be faked, but the blood flowing out of the body nourished by the Lihuo Pearl cannot be faked.

As a member of the Dongyi tribe, Qing Yi knows better than others.

He suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Shen Qingci, his eyes full of shock, surprise, and disbelief. In the end, he suddenly lowered his head and knelt down towards Shen Qingci from a distance while holding the jade flute.

"Tsing Yi meets the young master!"

Due to the blood relationship, those who can obtain the Glass Fire Pearl must be direct descendants of the Xiao royal family.

The Dongyi people have been loyal to their monarch for generations. From Qingyi's point of view, now that the female monarch is on the throne, the young girl in front of him should be the young master of the Dongyi people and the future heir apparent of the Chu Kingdom.

Shen Qingci waved his hand casually, "I am not a young master."

"I'm just telling you all this to prove to you that I was the one who killed Gu Qiuli."

"Now are you trustworthy?"

Now that Shen Qingci's identity has been confirmed, how could Qing Yi not believe it.

However, when he thought about Shen Qingci's current identity and the things he had done for Queen Daqi before, he felt extremely guilty.

"Before, Qing Yi was stupid and did something wrong, which caused a big disaster. Please punish me, young master!"

Shen Qingci casually threw the long sword in his hand to Qingyu not far away, then turned to Qingyi and said: "Do you still remember what I asked you just now?"

She said, do you know why I didn't kill you before?

Qing Yi was surprised.

With her skills and status, if she wanted to kill him, she would have done it outside the Netherworld Valley.

However, she didn't.

why?
Qing Yi was confused.

Shen Qingci turned around and glanced at the noisy Princess Jian'an Mansion not far away, which was surrounded by imperial guards. She did not answer Qing Yi's question immediately, but said calmly: "I know that the Dongyi people have only obeyed the orders of the past generations. For the king of Chu, it is the most powerful sword in the king’s hands, and it is also a life-saving talisman.”

"You have been imprisoned in the Netherworld Valley for cultivation since childhood, because the environment in which you live and grow is different from ordinary people, and you do not have the so-called sense of right and wrong that we people have."

"You only know how to carry out the king's orders. You don't think or ask too much about anything else."

"Back then, in order to protect me, the queen sent some elite members of the Dongyi tribe, and at the same time, she also cut off the connection with the Dongyi tribe. I never thought that she would later ask Gu Qiuli to fight back to the Netherworld Valley."

"You were lucky enough to survive, but you lost your tribe and your faith. The only faith that can sustain you is revenge."

"Later, Xiao Wenyan was appointed as the crown prince and took the initiative to seek your help. At that time, the queen was critically ill. As the heir to the throne, Xiao Wenyan should be used by the Dongyi people. What's more, he also promised you that he would find Gu Qiuli to take revenge. "

"So, you became his right-hand man."

"I guess right?"

After saying that, Shen Qingci turned to look at Qing Yi.

He gripped the jade flute tightly and lowered his body a little lower, "Yes, exactly."

Shen Qingci smiled: "Although you did something wrong, the key is to use your people."

"So, I won't kill you."

There is another reason.

The Dongyi tribe was wiped out, and now they are the only three people left.

In addition to Qing Yi and Liu Su, who is simple and pure in mind, there is also a crazy Mama Liao.

The latter two have different meanings to Shen Qingci.

Qing Yi, on the one hand, was loyal to others, and on the other hand, he wanted to avenge his clansmen, which brought him to where he is now, and he has not yet reached the point where his crime is unforgivable.

She is willing to leave this only inheritance for the Dongyi witchcraft and poison clan, which has been developed for hundreds of years.

Of course, it can no longer be like the Dongyi tribe before. How to develop and use it, the key lies in the people who use it.

Shen Qingci already had some calculations in his mind.

Moreover, regardless of the cause and effect, after all, she inherited the Lihuo Pearl, which can be regarded as repaying the Dongyi clan's love.

"However, I have something I need you to do in the future."

Hearing this, Qing Yi lowered his head and said loudly: "Qing Yi swears by the spirit of my people in heaven that I will treat the young master with the same heart."

Finally, he thought for a while and added: "No matter whether the girl inherits the identity of the young master or not, she will never betray."

After all, Shen Qingci's possession of the Glass Fire Pearl cannot be changed.

This is the belief of their Dongyi clan.

Shen Qingci had no doubts about this.

She responded lightly, then asked about the purpose of her visit: "Do you know where the Ninth Prince was taken?"

The Queen and others trusted Qing Yi so much before, and at the same time they also relied on Qing Yi's snake to spy on and spy on the news.

Then he is very likely to know the whereabouts of Xiao Jiu.

Now that he has gained Qing Yi's trust and loyalty, if he knew about it, he would naturally not hide anything.

Sure enough, Qing Yi didn't hesitate at all when he heard this, and immediately nodded and said: "I know."

Speaking of this, Qing Yi's face was full of guilt and annoyance.

"They were thinking of using the child's blood to feed human face Gu, so they just imprisoned him in a secret room and did not harm his life."

This was the case before, but now that the queen's first and second-hand plans have failed, it is difficult to ensure that the people under her will not die when they hear the news.

Shen Qingci didn't hesitate at all: "Take me there quickly."
