Chapter 61 Did the princess have foresight?
Chapter 61 Did the princess have foresight?
She's being way too delusional; she's not even a hair on her head compared to her!
Zhong Liyu could not sense any love from Yan Ruoyu.
Her allure had no effect on him whatsoever.
She clenched her fists. It didn't matter whether he sabotaged it or not; he was just the least important part of the plan anyway.
After leaving the pavilion, the two Su brothers did not return to their own villa, but instead went to the Ghost Clan Inn outside the Imperial Court.
Their Shadow Guards, stationed throughout the city, would periodically deliver messages and meet here.
The two of them sat in the inn, and several slips of paper were faintly visible on the table.
The information they received was identical to what Yan Ruoyu had obtained; it was also the deployment map for this lantern festival.
She also took the opportunity to report on Yan Ruoyu, saying that she had gone to meet with Zhong Liyu in secret again.
Su Fengling clutched the note tightly in his hand. When he mentioned the relationship between Yan Ruoyu and Zhong Liyu last time, Zhong Liyueluo seemed unmoved.
He really couldn't figure out what Zhongli Yuelu was thinking.
He glanced at Su Fengjun sitting opposite him and asked, "Brother, should we go with the flow or go against the flow?"
"At least for now, our position is still that of the princess's consort."
His phoenix eyes were lowered as he pondered that Yan Ruoyu shouldn't be that kind of person.
"Brother, tell me, which side is that old man on?" He tilted his head and said the most vicious thing.
"Su Fengling, watch your words." His younger brother always speaks without thinking.
They called He Yuhuan an old monster and Yan Ruoyu an old man.
"This inn is almost entirely filled with people from my ghost clan. Do you think I'm afraid someone will spread the word?"
He stretched one leg out and placed it on the stool next to him, casually stroking his plum blossom dart in his hand.
Su Fengjun shook his head: "You need to keep an eye on whether there are any messages from your father. Gui Chouyuan probably really wants to cause trouble this time!"
"The Zisang clan has been fighting us for tens of thousands of years without a clear winner. Do you really think that cooperating with a foreign tribe this time will be enough to overthrow the Southern Demon Mountain?"
Su Fengling didn't take it to heart, a wicked smile playing on his lips.
"The twins of the Zisang clan are also quite capable. The fact that the two of us were able to injure them last time was purely by luck."
Su Fengjun has always been cautious, calculating the risks of every step he takes.
The two of them carried the weight of the Southern Demon Mountain on their shoulders, and dared not gamble lightly.
Seeing his serious expression, Su Fengling also pulled her feet back.
He stopped smiling and nodded, "I know, brother."
Su Fengjun then stayed at the inn, while Su Fengling closed his eyes and instantly transformed into a vengeful ghost.
They soon arrived near Ghost Sorrow Abyss, where the entrance was shrouded in a dark, oppressive aura.
Those little devils and evil spirits, under the pressure of the Su family, dared not approach Su Fengling at all.
Of course, he only stood at the door and didn't go in.
However, he could sense that their eyes were filled with a fierce light.
In the past, I mostly saw him with a submissive look in his eyes.
Now, with greed and murderous intent filling his eyes, Zisang Shi is no longer willing to live in this Ghost Sorrow Abyss!
Experiencing the atmosphere here firsthand confirms their desire to overthrow the Su family.
He stood there, and the fairy butterflies fluttered around him before entering his body, their information appearing directly in his brain.
Moreover, it appears in the form of a picture, showing a woman who looks similar to Zhongli Yueluo.
He was chatting and laughing with his father and mother, and then told him that it would be best if Zhongli Yueluo could be brought to the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan.
He didn't understand. Logically speaking, the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan should be very wary of the Blood Demon Clan.
Why did his father and mother get along so well, as if they were old friends?
What secrets did their previous generation hold?
However, since it was his father's order, it was fine to bring Zhongli Yueluo to the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan.
Then Yan Ruoyu would have absolutely no chance!
He simply refused to believe that, with his and his brother's abilities, they couldn't quell the Ghost Sorrow Abyss in cooperation with the Western Demon Mountain!
After receiving the message, he returned to the inn in an instant.
Looking at his brother, he said, "Father said to take the princess to Nanmo Mountain as a guest."
"What else did you say?"
Su Fengling shook his head, seemingly not sensing any sense of crisis in that scene.
The two exchanged some more words at the Ghost Clan Inn before returning to the Imperial Court.
Su Fengling couldn't sit still for a moment and wanted to go and tell Zhong Li Yueluo on him as soon as he got back.
Before he even went there, Yan Ruoyu went to find Zhongli Yueluo, and they were sitting in Ruoyu's courtyard at that moment.
Zhongli Yueluo dared not discuss such an important matter in her own room.
After all, she had many spies around her, from various factions.
Perhaps because she hadn't slept well last night, she looked tired and propped her head up with her hand.
The pearl hairpins on my head felt incredibly heavy.
His eyes were squinting, as if he was about to doze off, and his head almost hit the table.
Yan Ruoyu used the Xuan Gu Fan to lift her chin, supporting her like that.
Her eyes were closed, her face expressionless, and her hair fluttered slightly in the cold wind.
His eyelashes trembled, and he squinted at her.
The Silver Guard stood at a distance, not moving forward, while keeping an eye out for any other clans that might be listening.
“Princess, you came to my courtyard but didn’t say a word.”
"I just feel a little safer in your yard, since no other eyes are watching me. I'll take a nap a little longer."
She parted her lips slightly, mumbling as if she hadn't actually opened her mouth.
He loosened his Xuan Gu fan and gently supported her chin with his hand.
Her head had no support of its own; it rested entirely on his hands.
He sat closer, and she leaned against his shoulder.
His hair brushed against his cheeks, making him feel a ticklish sensation.
A few strands of hair accidentally got into her nose, and she sneezed twice in a row.
He stretched out his hand and the cloak appeared in his hand, then casually draped it over her, but she still didn't open her eyes.
He looked at her; her brows were slightly furrowed, and he couldn't tell what she was thinking.
He tapped her forehead with his finger: "Zhong Liyu asked me to go back then because of the matter of the deer guards' deployment at the lantern festival."
She didn't answer, she didn't even lift her eyelids.
He continued, "You're using the Black Deer Guards for those sentries in your city? Are you deliberately creating openings for them?"
"Yes, it was intentional, so your Zhenwei and their Guiwei need to cover for them in secret."
She rubbed her head together, shifting to a more comfortable position.
"You trust me so much, aren't you afraid I'm a double agent?"
His tone was full of laughter, and his eyes were smiling too; perhaps being unconditionally trusted makes one happy.
"That's exactly what I need—a double agent. Otherwise, how can I fool them?"
"But the course of history will not change. I can only minimize the losses. The chaos in Guichouyuan is still inevitable."
"Princess, do you have some kind of precognitive ability?" he asked earnestly.
"No, it's just based on evidence. You can find out by doing a little research."
She felt uncomfortable on her shoulder, so she simply lay down and half-reclined on his lap.
