Chapter 93
What Qi Tanying didn't know was that Yan Li was not lying.Qi Juemin was indeed killed by Lian Qichu, and he only played the role of a bridge in it.

Because, Qi Juemin was the chief culprit of the Lian family's fire, and the reason was to get the family heirloom of the Lian family - Nuanxiang Yubi.

Nuanxiang Yubi is a whole piece of jade five feet long and three feet wide, which is hot when it is cold and has a strange fragrance.

At that time, Qi Juemin got acquainted with a distinguished guest from Kyoto, and that distinguished guest came here for the fragrance and jade wall.

The Qi family and the Lian family are related by marriage, and Qi Juemin wanted to spend a lot of money to buy the Nuanxiang Jade Wall, but the Nuanxiang Jade Wall was a family heirloom of the Lian family, so the head of the Lian family naturally refused to sell it.

So he declined Qi Juemin.

Qi Juemin did not give up, and increased his bargaining chips, not only promised a lot of money to buy, but also a piece of Lantian jade as a gift.

The head of the Lian family still refused, and said that as a descendant of the Lian family, he must not break the inheritance of his ancestors.

Qi Juemin bumped into a wall one after another at the head of the Lian family, and was repeatedly urged and blamed by that distinguished guest. In a fit of rage, he wanted to kill people and seize treasures.

That's why there was the fire in the second year of Yuanhe.The fire burned for a day and a night, and more than [-] members of Lian's family were killed, except Lian's sister-in-law, who was married outside.

Nuanxiang Yubi, the heirloom of the Lian family, is also missing.

Just when everyone was feeling sorry and heartbroken for the Lian family, Lian Qichu, the younger brother of Lian's sister-in-law, did not die, but was rescued by a thief who sneaked into the Lian family to steal things.

Later, by mistake, he became a bandit in Limai Mountain. When he learned that the tragedy of extermination was caused by Nuanxiang Yubi, he tracked down Qi Juemin.

He hated Qi Juemin, resented the Qi family and the sister-in-law Lian who married into the Qi family, so he remained indifferent after the sister-in-law Lian was kicked out of the house by his heir.

Lian Qichu stayed in Limai Mountain for ten years. In order to get revenge, he climbed step by step from a young man to the position of bandit leader.

He once set up an ambush to kill Qi Juemin in Limai Mountain, but Keke escaped him every time, which also attracted the government to suppress bandits.Limai Mountain was seriously injured and had to retreat to the mountains to recuperate.

Qi Juemin thought that the bandits in Limai Mountain had been wiped out by the government long ago. He was cautious when passing through Limai Mountain in the past two years, but he has relaxed his vigilance in the past two years.

After years of dormancy, Lian Qichu finally got the chance to take revenge.

When Qi Juemin's head was cut off, warm blood splashed on his face, and Lian Qichu, who had been tortured by hatred for more than ten years, was finally redeemed.

When Yan Li told all the truth, Qi Tanying was terrified and couldn't calm down for a long time.

Qi Juemin's crimes exceeded her expectations, and the criminal evidence in her hands was nothing compared to the fact that he exterminated his family and seized the treasure. Those were more than fifty lives.

This happy death is considered cheap for him.

Qi Tanying really wanted to know who that distinguished guest from the capital was. If he hadn't coveted the treasures of the Lian family, the Lian family wouldn't have been destroyed.

Yan Li said: "At the beginning of the Holy Majesty's succession to the throne, King Yu was fed cold poison, and he needed to take one Tuhuo pill every ten days. One Tuhuo pill is worth a hundred gold, and he needs 36 pills in a year."

Tu Huo Dan is expensive, but it can only temporarily suppress the cold poison, it cannot cure the cold poison, but it will cause the cold poison to accumulate and shorten the lifespan.If there is a warm phase jade bi, it can not only alleviate the torment of cold poison, but also reduce the amount of Tu Huo Dan.

Qi Tanying couldn't believe what she heard, "You mean, Qi Juemin attacked the Lian family for the sake of King Yu?"

Yan Li looked at her and nodded slowly.

Qi Tanying trembled as if being poured with a basin of cold water on a cold day, "He actually took refuge in King Yu."

Her husband is the crown prince's confidant, and the Qi family has surrendered to King Yu, and together with her mother and younger brother, they have become the opposing camp of the crown prince.Now the prince and King Yu are still brothers and sisters on the surface, so when Ruozhen is going to fight to the death, what will her family do?
Seeing his wife's frightened and worried face, Yan Li hurriedly comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'm here for everything."

He assured her, "Mother-in-law and brother-in-law are also my family, and I will not put my family in danger."

He also told her that the people sent by Donggong to Wuzhou had already contacted Qi Weimin, and Qi Weimin had no intention of submitting to any party.If the Qi family remains neutral, it will have no influence in the East Palace.

Only King Yu was affected. After all, Qi Juemin did not know how much money Qi Juemin had sent to King Yu for so many years.

Qi Tanying thought of Shisanniang in the palace, "Qi Juemin used Yan Lang to blackmail Shisanniang, could she have fallen to King Yu?"

Yan Li shook his head. Since entering the palace, Qi Shisanniang rarely interacts with the concubines in the harem, except to pay respects to the queen, she hardly ever leaves Wuji Palace.According to reports from Wuji Palace's eyeliner, so far, no intersection has been found between Qi Shisanniang and Concubine Yun Gui, the mother of King Yu.

Now that Qi Juemin is dead and Yan Lang is in his hands, if Qi Shisanniang is smart, she will definitely not favor King Yu.

Qi Tanying was still worried.

People's hearts are changeable, Qi Shisanniang has been in the palace for a year, what if she loses her mind for Yan Lang?Or is there someone more worthy of her attention than Yan Lang?

Such as children.

She is deeply favored by the Holy Majesty, if one day she has a child, will Yan Lang outside the palace still make her miss it?

Qi Tanying expressed her worries, but Yan Li told her not to worry.There is a queen in the palace, and Qi Shisanniang has her own queen to supervise.For the crown prince, Yan Lang is much more important than a low-ranking concubine.

Never let Yan Lang fall into the hands of King Yu.

Seeing that Yan Li had his own ideas to deal with, Qi Tanying didn't say anything more.

A few days later, Mrs. Qi also received the news of Qi Juemin's death. She couldn't believe it at first, and was stunned for a while.After reacting, she immediately went to Yan's house. Such a big thing happened, and she didn't care whether it was impolite to rush to the door.

Although Qi Tanying already knew about it, she still had to pretend not to know.

"A Tan, why did you say he died suddenly?" Madam Qi murmured, "I've cursed him so many times over the years, but he's still alive and well."

Unexpectedly, he was killed by bandits in Limai Mountain, which is really unexpected.

Qi Tanying patted her mother's hand, "Mother, don't say anything like curses. If outsiders find out, it will cause trouble."

Mrs. Qi nodded repeatedly, her daughter was right, the two of them whispered this, but they must not let outsiders know.

"The clan originally wanted your third uncle to take over the position of patriarch, but he refused, and pushed his nephew Qi Yuwen to the position of patriarch."

Mrs. Qi was a little worried, "Although Qi Yuwen is Qi Juemin's son, he has always been cowardly and timid. As the patriarch, he is not as good as his father."

Mrs. Qi didn't know the inside story, so she said such a thing.

The position of patriarch has always been held by the eldest son's descendant. Although Qi Weimin is also a descendant, he is not as orthodox as Qi Yuwen.Yan Li said that the people of King Yu should not be allowed to know that they were interfering, so Qi Yuwen was appointed as the patriarch.

It is Qi Weimin who is really in charge of the affairs of the Qi clan.
