“Do you know each other?” Yuwen Jing asked.
Guo Lingxi was stung by Su Xiaoxiao’s smile and said coldly, “She’s from the Great Zhou and I’ve seen her in the Great Zhou. I’m not familiar with her. Does Jing’er know her too?”
Yuwen Jing said disdainfully, “She’s the girl who snatched my Snow Lotus I mentioned to you. She claims to be Mr. Zhuge’s sister.”
“Her? Mr. Zhuge’s sister?” Guo Lingxi laughed as if she had heard a huge joke. She looked at Su Xiaoxiao and said, “You really dare to make it up!”
“What do you mean?” Yuwen Jing asked.
“Since she claims to be Mr. Zhuge’s sister, why don’t we bring her to see Mr. Zhuge and acknowledge her in person? If Mr. Zhuge is willing to acknowledge her as his sister, I’ll chop off my head!”
Guo Lingxi didn’t expose Su Xiaoxiao’s true identity because it wouldn’t be fun if she did. She just wanted to see Su Xiaoxiao’s face being slapped in public.
The maidservant at the side suddenly pointed ahead. “Look! Mr. Zhuge is coming! ”
AZhuge Qing was pushed by a Black Armored Guard and was wearing a mask. His characteristics were obvious and were very easy to recognize for those who were familiar with his recent situation.
Although everyone found it strange why he suddenly put on a mask, they did not take it to heart.
“Stop,” he began.
The Black Armored Guard stopped the wheelchair.
Zhuge Qing turned to look in the direction of the grass field.
Xiao Hu sat in Wei Ting’s arms and cried, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Dahu looked up and said, “I didn’t do it on purpose. I already said that you couldn’t take it, but you insisted. I’m very strong! Next time, it’s your turn to kick. I’ll take it, alright?”
Erhu also advised, “That’s right, that’s right. Xiaohu, come down. Don’t let Daddy carry you. Play with us!”
Mei Ji followed Zhuge Qing’s gaze and couldn’t help but widen her eyes.
“Heavens, isn’t that that blind man? Why is he with my three little husbands? My little husbands still call him Father? Did I hear wrongly? I must have heard wrongly!”
The three little ones were not loud. Ordinary people could not hear them, but martial artists could hear them clearly.
“I heard it too. They just called him Father,” the assassin added.
Mei Ji glared at him.
Zhuge Qing looked at them with a burning gaze.
Wei Ting seemed to have sensed something and looked over.
Zhuge Qing retracted his gaze in time and said calmly, “Let’s go.”
Wei Ting’s gaze landed on Zhuge Qing. Was this the person he had met in the pavilion just now?
The young Princess of Western Jin walked over. “Wei Ting, what are you looking at? Ah, Zhuge Qing!”
Wei Ting frowned. “He’s Zhuge Qing?”
“Master Zhuge.. ”
Yuwen Jing hurriedly went down the steps, planning to greet Zhuge Qing. However, Zhuge Qing had long been pushed away by the assassin and did not even look at her.
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows at Guo Lingxi. “Go and call him. Stop my brother and get him to confront me.”
Guo Lingxi gritted her teeth. “Don’t be smug! Mr. Zhuge left first because he had something on. If you meet him again, you won’t be so lucky!”
Su Xiaoxiao snorted and looked up at the sky.
In the Imperial Study, the Western Jin Emperor called a few imperial heirs over and ordered them. The content was nothing more than that of his birthday banquet. They had to behave themselves and not cause trouble for the envoys of other countries.
The royal heirs repeatedly expressed their filial piety, indicating that they were brothers and sisters and were harmonious. Father was overthinking.
After coming out, all of them raised their noses to the sky and ignored each other. They left without looking back.
Yuwen Huai and Yuwen Xi walked at the back.
In Yuwen Huai’s opinion, the two of them were the most powerful competitors for the throne. The other younger brothers were just there for show.
He looked at Yuwen Xi meaningfully. “I believe you understand what Father means. ”
Yuwen Xi said calmly, “I don’t care what Father means. I’m willing to listen to what Big Brother means.”
Yuwen Huai smiled. “Big Brother is overjoyed that Sister was released.”
Yuwen Xi sneered. “Save your nice words for your advisor. Perhaps he won’t be able to hear them in the future.”
Yuwen Huai’s smile remained unchanged. “It’s better to say a few more words to Sister. Perhaps this is the last time I’ll see Sister come out.”
Yuwen Huai muttered,” Zhuge Qing will consign you to eternal damnation tonight!”
Yuwen Xi griited her teeth,” I’ll consign Zhuge Qing to eternal damnation tonight!”
“Hmph!”
The two of them rolled their eyes at each other and walked away.
After returning to their respective pavilions,
“What did you say? Mr. Zhuge left?” Yuwen Huai was in disbelief. What happened to the agreement to deal with Yuwen Xi? Why did he suddenly leave?
Yuwen Xi’s reaction was not much less than Yuwen Huai’s.
“Why did he leave? I spent so much effort to teach him a lesson tonight! Wouldn’t I have worked for nothing if he left!” The siblings were furious.
Zhuge Qing got into the carriage and left the palace.
The long-awaited peace was broken. His thoughts surged and he could not calm down for a long time.
His leg began to hurt again.
It was the pain of needles, the tearing pain, and the discomfort of thousands of ants gnawing at it.
He couldn’t get excited. It would make his situation worse.
However, he could not calm down at this moment.
He clenched his fists. It was unknown if it was pain or longing, but his eyes were slightly red.
Suddenly, a figure opened the back door and flashed into the car. He sat down beside him and pressed the cold dagger against his neck.
It was Wei Ting.
“You’re Yuwen Huai’s trusted aide. You should know that I went to the opera house to look for someone. What did you do to the person in the portrait?”
Zhuge Qing did not speak. He used a lot of strength to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.
“If you don’t say anything, I’ll kill you! Or cut off one of your arms and send it to Yuwen Huai’s residence. I believe he’ll be very happy to make a deal with
me.”
Zhuge Qing’s nails almost dug into his palms.
An arrow was shot.
Zhuge Qing suddenly pushed Wei Ting away and shielded in front of him.
Wei Ting was shocked. He pressed down on his arm and broke the arrow that was about to hit his heart!
Not far away, the assassin and Mei Ji appeared and rushed towards the archer who shot arrows at Zhuge Qing.
In the carriage, Wei Ting looked at Zhuge Qing curiously. “You just…”
Zhuge Qing tried his best to maintain his composure, but his breathing betrayed him.
The reason why his expression did not change even if Mount Tai collapsed was that he did not care.
However, how could he pretend to be calm when he heard that a certain silly kid did not hesitate to offend the royal family of the Western Jin on his own to find him?
Wei Ting switched the dagger to his left hand and pointed the tip at himself. He slowly stretched out his right hand to remove the mask on his face.
Zhuge Qing turned his head and avoided his hand.
Wei Ting looked at the pale chin exposed under his mask and said in a daze,
“Second Brother?”
