After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Leng Yuxie held the wine glass in his hand, his eyes darkened, and the glass shattered in his hand. As he opened his hand, the fragments fell onto the stone table and fell apart piece by piece.

Liu Yunxiang's heart suddenly tightened, so tight that he couldn't keep up with his breathing.

She looked at the fragments quietly for a long time and said softly: "We are friends, not enemies."

"There is a lot of opposition in the DPRK. Now is not the time to let you leave. Just wait." Leng Yuxie said calmly.

Liu Yunxiang did not answer and was silent for a long time. "By the way, how is the Queen Mother's health?"

Leng Yuxie glanced at her, "Since the death of her father, the Queen Mother's health has been deteriorating."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "I want to visit the palace."

"I know that you have some affection for the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother and I generally have to be stable with Beijin Sheji, so don't force her."

Liu Yunxiang lowered his eyes, meaning that he would not let her see him. She moved out of the Queen Mother at this time, and she did mean to put pressure on Leng Yuxie, but she didn't want to break up with each other, which would be of no benefit to them.

"Actually, it may not be safer for you to return to Da Rong than to stay in Jin'an. Emperor Da Rong is fatuous and an eunuch is in power. Your situation will only be more difficult. It would be better to stay in Jin'an."

Liu Yunxiang suppressed his fear and said: "We appreciate the emperor's kindness, but Darong is our home, and we must go back."

Leng Yuxie snorted, "You also said that your friend has no nostalgia at all and wants to leave me here."

This seemed to be a bit of a complaint, but Leng Yuxie smiled as if he was just joking.

Coming out of the backyard, Liu Yunxiang felt uneasy all the time. Leng Yuxie didn't give her an accurate answer, and his attitude seemed to be more inclined to leave them in Jin'an.

And she didn't mention the edict, so she might as well wait a little longer and give him some time.

When passing through the corridor, Liu Yunxiang saw a maid hiding behind the hanging flower door and secretly waved to her. She took a closer look and saw that this maid was the one beside Murong Zhixi.

"Wait a moment, I'll go to the latrine."

Liu Yunxiang said something to the boy leading the way, and then ran towards the Chuihua Gate. Because this was the Prince of England's palace, and there were guards inside and outside, the young man was not afraid that she would cause some trouble, so he did not stop her.

Liu Yunxiang ran into the hanging flower door, looked around, and saw the maid hiding under the verandah. He hesitated for a while, but ran over.

"Miss Liu, our princess asked me to bring you a message." The maid whispered to Liu Yunxiang while watching her surroundings, "She asked you... She asked you not to believe His Highness, no, Your Majesty."

This was said carelessly. Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment and asked, "Where is your princess?"

The maid's eyes widened, "Miss Liu, don't you know?"

"what do you know?"

"Our princess has passed away."

Liu Yunxiang was shocked, "You said your princess...is dead?"

The maid sighed, "Yes, it's been a month."

"what happened?"

The maid didn’t know what was going on specifically. But that day, Chief Assistant Murong Chi came to the palace and asked the princess to go back with him. The princess originally refused, but Murong Chi had a tough attitude and the King of England did not stop her. The princess was taken away in tears. Before leaving, she told her maid that she must send a message to Liu Yunxiang, telling her not to trust the King of England too much. The King of England was very deep and cruel.

On the second day after the emperor ascended the throne, he personally went to take the princess back to the palace. He had previously named the princess the queen. When he arrived at the First Assistant Mansion, he found that the queen and the newborn prince had been killed by Murong Chi.

The murder of the queen and the prince was a major crime against the Nine Clan. The emperor immediately issued an order to arrest Murong Chi and more than 100 people from the Prime Minister's Office. Three days later, Murong Chi and other members of the Murong family, a total of more than ten people, were beheaded at the Meridian Gate.

After listening to this, Liu Yunxiang felt a chill running down her spine. Leng Yuxue was too cruel, using the lives of Murong Zhixi and her newborn child to eliminate Murong Chi and clear the obstacles for herself.

But she still couldn't believe it, "Have you ever seen the princess's body with your own eyes?"

The maid lowered her head and wiped her tears, "The four maids in our room have been taking care of the princess, and they went there that day. The emperor went into the room first, and about a quarter of an hour later, we heard the emperor's cry, and we servants hurried When I went in, I saw the princess lying on the bed covered in blood, and the babies in her arms were also covered in blood, one big and one small had no breath."

"One quarter of an hour?"

If Leng Yuxie had discovered that Murong Zhixi and the child were dead as soon as he entered the door, he would have reacted immediately. How could it be a quarter of an hour late...

She couldn't help but think deeply, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

It was he...he killed Murong Zhixi and the child with his own hands!

The maid nodded and looked around again, "Miss Liu, I have brought you what the princess asked me to bring. Please take care of yourself."

After saying that, the maid ran away quickly.

Liu Yunxiang held on to the pillar next to him. Murong Zhixi must have noticed something when he was taken away by Murong Chi, so he asked the maid to bring this sentence to her.

But she probably didn't expect that Leng Yuxie would be so cruel, not even sparing a newborn child!

On the way back, there were still guards following her, and there were no people on the street at this time. At this time, a drunkard staggered over. He got entangled with two guards and even started to fight.

"Be bold, open your dog eyes and see who we are!"

"If you're not just a soldier, what's the big deal?"

Hearing this sound, Liu Yunxiang made up his mind. He raised his head and looked at the drunkard. He happened to look over as well, and their eyes met.

Ruan Lingyu!

Liu Yunxiang breathed out softly and pretended to stop the fight and stepped forward, while Ruan Lingyu took advantage of the two guards not paying attention and stuffed a note into her hand.

After that, Ruan Lingyu left cursing, and the two guards didn't pay much attention.

Back in the house, Liu Yunxiang woke up Yan Mu and opened the note. Seeing the news from Ruan Lingyu, Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu's expressions changed. Liu Yunxiang was angry, and Yan Mu was sarcastic.

"There are more than [-] people in the three states of Zhenbei. In order to eradicate you, the imperial court wants to cede it to Beijin. To come up with such despicable tricks, and the emperor also sent an envoy to negotiate, this kind of behavior is tantamount to treason. Throughout the ages, No matter how stupid you are, you will never be able to do such a thing!"

The news came from Wei Tian who had people working hard. Not only did Darong want to send Zhenbei to the three states, but he was also willing to send troops together with Beijin to attack the Zhenbei army from both sides. This is like kneeling down to deliver food to someone, and feeding it into their mouths with their own hands.

In this way, the Northern Jin court was naturally moved, and the ministers gave advice one after another, so Leng Yuxie said tonight that he couldn't help himself.

Yan Mu sneered coldly: "I'm not surprised, I just find it ridiculous. It turns out they are so afraid of me."

"Wei Tian sent a team of men to secretly sneak into Beijin. They are just waiting to meet up with Ruan Lingyu and the others in Jin'an. Then we will have no choice but to fight head-on."

"You no longer trust Leng Yuxie?"

Liu Yunxiang thought of Leng Yuxie who personally killed Murong Zhixi and her children. How could she trust such a cruel person.

"I am afraid that his promise will not be able to resist the temptation of the three states in Zhenbei."

"Winning the three states may seem like an advantage, but it will also lead to an endless war. Beijin and Zhenbei are still separated by a desert. Unless they continue to move south, Beijin will not be able to stabilize the situation in Zhenbei. .Although sweet potatoes are filling, they are also hot to the touch. Just wait a little longer, I believe Leng Yuxie is not stupid."
