Chapter 41 When did we start having secrets?
Zhongli Quanhuang's voice was very authoritative. Zhongli Yueluo nodded, but looked up as if she noticed that his expression was not quite right.
Zhongli Yueluo nodded: "Your subject will follow your father's teachings and will live in harmony with the princes and build a good relationship between the three clans."
"Alright, alright, step down," Zhongli Quanhuang waved his hand, his voice weak.
Could it be that Yin Manling secretly made a move behind the scenes and used some other trick?
Her gaze sharpened, but she still led the three of them out of Taiyuan Palace.
He seemed lost in thought the whole way, casually placing his hand on Su Fengjun's, seemingly unconcerned about the feelings of the other two.
Su Fengling was a little upset. What? Was his brother's hand softer and easier to touch?
No way! He grabbed Su Fengjun's other hand and squeezed it. No, it wasn't as tender as his!
"Princess, I'll head back to my courtyard now."
Yan Ruoyu cupped his hands slightly, a smile in his eyes, because he knew she would come to find him next.
"Oh, okay," she replied casually.
Seeing that Yan Ruoyu had left tactfully, Su Fengling's smile grew even wider.
Just then, Zhongli Quanhuang's personal attendant suddenly caught up from behind: "Oh, Princess, wait for this old servant."
She stopped and turned to look at him. He said, "The Demon Lord says that the princess is now married, so this token will be handed over to you."
It's a silver-edged black token; isn't this the token of the Medicine Deer Clan's army?
Why would they give it to her? Of course, the Su brothers recognized it!
"What did the sovereign father say?"
"Yes, it's the Demon Lord. In addition, there are the Silver Deer Guards and the Deer Shadow Guards, all of whom are under the princess's command. The decree has already reached the various camps."
Zhongli Yueluo held the plaque, a question lingering in her mind.
Even if there is a transfer of power, it shouldn't happen this quickly. Could something have gone wrong?
With keen intuition, she squinted her eyes in thought, wanting to ask more questions, but she couldn't completely trust the two people beside her.
She could only accept the plaque and go to Taiyuan Hall later to see if anything had happened.
The Su brothers exchanged a glance; now they were truly going to focus their attention on this princess.
The most important military power of Ximo Mountain has been transferred to her, and who to help is entirely up to her.
After the eunuch left, Su Fengjun noticed that her brows were furrowed, as if she was thinking about something important.
His gaze fell on the sign, and he seemed to be deep in thought.
Su Fengling lightly tapped her furrowed brow with her fingertip: "What are you thinking about, sister? Your brows are furrowed like that, it doesn't look good."
With a casual wave of her hand, she put the token back into her pouch. She needed to find a chance to get rid of these two and go find Yan Ruyu.
Thinking about it, He Yuhuan twirled the golden mace in her hand from a distance, her eyes lighting up: "Yuhuan!"
He Yuhuan heard the shout and stared blankly in this direction.
He first grinned, but then frowned when he saw the Su brothers.
"Master." She approached.
"Yu Huan, weren't you going to buy roast chicken on the street today?" She blinked.
He Yuhuan tilted her head and bit her nails. "Really? Is that so?"
Seeing her confusion, Zhongli Yueluo knew she was just struggling to understand.
"Yes, you said it in your dream. How about letting my two sons-in-law accompany you?"
He Yuhuan's mouth gaped open, too angry to speak: "Then, then I won't eat it!"
Su Fengling's eyes turned cold, revealing his displeasure, knowing that Zhongli Yueluo only wanted to get rid of them.
They didn't want to stay with He Yuhuan either.
It's hard to accept having such a terrifying face.
Su Fengling suddenly scratched the back of his head, feigning a completely innocent look.
“Brother, we didn’t have time to tidy up the yard when we came here yesterday. Let’s go back and tidy it up first.”
Su Fengjun nodded; he knew she was just looking for an excuse to leave.
But as he left, a hint of warmth flickered in his cold eyes, as if he were concerned about her.
Zhongli Yueluo nodded slightly to him: "I will visit your courtyard later. I do have some personal matters to attend to today. You two consorts should go back first."
She revealed two shallow dimples, waved mechanically, and watched them disappear on the other side of the corridor.
She squinted and asked, "Yu Huan, can you smell any kind of poison?"
"No, it has to be something I've already eaten," she answered honestly, poking her chin with her fingernail.
"I suspect that after Yin Manling failed to poison my father, she tried other methods to harm him."
Seeing Zhongli Yueluo's frowning expression, she said, "Master, how about I use my golden mace to kill her?"
This time she was tempted to agree, but He Yuhuan was afraid she couldn't beat Yin Manling's methods, so she shook her head at her.
The smile on Su Fengling's face and in her eyes vanished completely as she turned her head.
He tossed his hair with a playful gesture: "This princess doesn't seem to trust us at all."
"Even princesses have their own stance."
"Brother, what exactly did the princess say to you yesterday? You didn't even tell me."
"secret."
"Do we brothers have secrets now?" He put his arm around his shoulder.
He pulled his head closer, his eyes trying to see through him, even though neither of the two brothers fully knew what the other was thinking.
"Brother, you don't like her, do you?" A hint of coldness appeared in his eyes, and his smile froze on his face.
His ear tips turned slightly red, but his facial expression remained unchanged. I gently pulled his hand down.
"We have achieved our first objective. Staying here is just to see if we can get the princess's help. If we don't, it won't be a big loss for our ghost clan."
Your avoidance is very suspicious!
He poked Su Fengjun's chest with his hand, then resumed his smiling expression.
Su Fengjun blinked, looked to the other side, neither answering nor denying.
Su Fengling smiled and said, "Brother, you go back first. I'll take a stroll around here."
"Don't cause trouble."
He nodded, and his body, like smoke, disappeared into the distance along the corridor.
He went there because he could smell Yan Ruyu's scent. He wanted to see what Yan Ruyu was up to behind the scenes instead of sticking to the princess!
As a result, they saw Yan Ruoyu's figure in the opposite direction, with a woman standing in front of him.
He had seen that woman in the main hall; she was Zhongli Yu, Zhongli Yueluo's older sister.
Zhong Liyu seemed to be saying something to him, but he was too far away to hear clearly.
But he didn't dare get too close, after all, they both had thousands of years of cultivation. If he wanted to get closer, his brother could, but he couldn't.
He strained his ears, trying hard to listen.
Zhong Liyu held a feather fan in her hand, and despite the freezing weather, she was dressed in Lingyan silk.
Her inner garment was barely visible, and her eyes held a seductive glint as she blocked Yan Ruoyu's path.
"Isn't this Young Master Yan? We meet again. I heard that my sister didn't stay in your room last night."
Yan Ruoyu's lips curled up; Zhong Liyu was indeed still persistent in his pursuit of him.
Why not seek help from the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan? Is there some leverage or conflict involved?
