Traveling through: the princess under the ugly face and tears

Chapter 249 Conspiracy Part 1
The once magnificent Murong Bieyuan is now desolate, with broken tiles and broken walls everywhere, and bloodstains everywhere on the ground. The blood stains on the ground are no longer bright red, but faintly black. There are no corpses on the ground. The palace soldiers of the imperial court retreated, and all were cleared away, and now there is only deathly silence.


The cold night wind whistled over the Murong Bieyuan, occasionally mixed with the chirping of a crow, making the Murong Bieyuan look like a hell on earth, with the breath of death everywhere.


In such a terrifying atmosphere, a figure suddenly appeared in the Murong Bieyuan. The figure passed through the broken tiles and broken walls, then stopped, listened carefully to the surroundings for a while, and then disappeared at the door of a room .


Under the faint moonlight, above the room, two large characters with slightly shining golden light can be faintly seen: study room.


In the secret room, a huge candlestick was burning, and the red flames illuminated the entire secret room. Murong Qi closed his eyes and sat on the ground practicing exercises. There was a mist.


When he was going to hunt down Ye Wu, he was suddenly attacked by a man in red. He was accidentally hit by the soul-chasing silver needle, which sealed his meridians. Therefore, he had to use his skills to force the silver needle out , to be able to restore all his skills.


After a few days of continuous exercise and pressing the needle, now, he is almost successful.


The mist on Murong Qi's body was getting thicker and thicker, his face was even more terribly red, the sweat on his forehead was still flowing, but he was still motionless as if he had been in a trance.


As time passed bit by bit, the fog on his body became thicker and thicker, gradually enveloping him, and his body could no longer be seen. After an unknown period of time, his body began to tremble slightly. Suddenly, he shouted loudly, and following his shout, two silver rays of light shot out from the mist, and then sank into the wall.


With the shooting of the silver light, the mist on Murong Qi's body gradually dissipated. After a while, he took a deep breath, stood up suddenly from the ground, and let out a burst of laughter.


The door of the secret room was pushed open silently, and Murong Xue walked in, seeing Murong Qi laughing, she couldn't help asking, "Grandpa, have you succeeded?"


Murong Qi glanced at Murong Xue, stopped laughing, nodded slightly, with a look of resentment on his face, and asked coldly, "Xue Er, how many of us did Chu Xuechen kill?"


Murong Xue pondered for a while, and said, "Grandpa, Chu Xuechen has now ordered us to be hunted down. Most of us, I have obeyed your order and told them to stand still. However, I went to assassinate Chu Qingchen with me earlier. The casualties of the secret agents were extremely heavy."


Murong Qi frowned upon hearing this, and said, "Did you kill Chu Qingchen?"


Murong Xue lowered her head and said softly, "No, at first, my grandson was about to succeed, but a man in red appeared, and it was he who saved Chu Qingchen."


Murong Qi had a gloomy face, and after a long silence, he said coldly, "It's him again? Good! Very good! He hurt the old man, and the old man was looking for him, but now, he actually came to the door by himself, that's the best Already!"


Murong Xue looked at Murong Qi worriedly, and said, "Grandpa, this man in red is not easy to deal with. The silver needle he used is exactly the nemesis of our Poison Palm."


Murong Qi walked to the back of the desk and sat down, said coldly, "The old man knows, but he hasn't perfected his soul-chasing needle yet. If not, he would not only hurt the old man, but kill the old man!"


Murong Xue remained silent, and after a while, she asked again, "Grandpa, since your injury has healed, shall we leave the capital first? Next time, ask when we will start raising troops."


Murong Qi pondered for a while, and asked, "Now, Chu Xuechen already knows that we are going to raise troops to rebel. In addition, you failed to assassinate Chu Qingchen, they must have taken precautions. If we rashly raise troops now, what will happen? It is extremely unfavorable to us, what do they say about Chengwang now?"


Murong Xue frowned, and said a little displeasedly, "The Black Wind Nation insists that we raise troops first before they can attack Chu, and they refuse to start a war with Chu first."


Murong Qi listened to Murong Xue's words, snorted coldly, and said, "This old fox, King Cheng, is so precise!"


Murong Xue asked, "Grandpa, what should we do now?"


Murong Qi didn't answer Murong Xue's words in a hurry, but closed his eyes and meditated. After a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes and said, "There is no other way now. Now, our affairs have been exposed. Even if we don't rebel, Chu Xuechen will not let us go, the only way out now is to bite the bullet and raise troops first, and then wait for King Cheng's army to arrive, other than that, we have no other way to go!" Murongqi said here, After a pause, he looked at Murong Xue and asked, "Chen Baisu, what do you say?"


Murong Xue said, "Aunt Su has agreed to cooperate with us, and now she is trying her best to persuade Li Ming to join us."


Murong Qi pondered for a while, and said, "It would be great if she agreed to cooperate with us. However, now that Chu Xuechen has ascended the throne and Li Minggui is the head of a country, he probably won't change his mind easily."
