The next morning.

Shen Ningning's carriage appeared outside the prison of Dali Temple.

She went to see Qi Xiuwei in the cell alone.

I don't know what the two people talked about. The jailer was standing nearby and suddenly heard a sharp quarrel.

"Chen Ningning! It's in vain that I have always regarded you as a friend. Not only do you want to harm me, you also want to turn me into the princess of the Changliu Kingdom that everyone despises. What are your intentions in doing this!"

Qi Xiuwei was restrained by chains, but she still struggled.

The usually delicate face was full of anger and hatred.

Shen Ningning stood outside the cell, looking at her sadly.

"Xiaowei, if you don't do this, you will go to jail for ten years, or even more than ten years. Do you know how long that is?"

Her life will be ruined!

Qi Xiuwei cursed with bloodshot eyes: "I don't need your false kindness, get out of here, get out!"

Shen Ningning wiped away her tears and left, while Qi Xiuwei cried hysterically in pain in the cell, as if she was trying to vent something.

Soon, the matter was jointly reviewed by Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment.

Mr. Qi poisoned his own mother. He committed a serious crime and was sentenced to Lingchi.

And his daughter Qi Xiuwei was originally going to jail for poisoning her elders.

But not long ago, Shen Ningning introduced Xiumu to the emperor. After the two met, everyone knew that Qi Xiuwei was actually the tenth princess of Changliu Kingdom!

After her identity was announced, the whole capital was in uproar.

The most astonished person was Mrs. Qi. How could the daughter she had raised for more than ten years be from the Changliu Kingdom?

It was also at this time that Mr. Qi bit his tongue and committed suicide in prison. The jailer found a blood letter under his body.

In the letter, he clearly admitted his behavior of secretly exchanging children.

It turned out that Mrs. Qi had a difficult labor and gave birth to a stillborn child, who was sent away soon after.

Master Qi was afraid that she would be heartbroken, so he adopted a baby girl of the same age from outside.

This is Qi Xiuwei.

Mrs. Qi could not accept this fact and became ill.

When Qi Xiuwei was taken out of prison by Xiumu, it was a sunny day.

Her hair was messy, and with empty steps, she walked out of the dark cell and stood in the sunshine.

Qi Xiuwei raised her hand to block the dazzling sunlight.

She raised her head and looked at the endless sky, the sun was still shining brightly.

Xiumu stepped forward and saw a cold sneer in her eyes.

"See the Tenth Princess." Hideki saluted.

Tuoye behind him remained motionless, staring at Qi Xiuwei with suspicious eyes.

This girl looks nothing like him, is she really his sister?

Seeing that he didn't kneel down, Qi Xiuwei narrowed her eyes and looked at Tuoye.

Hideki tugged on his sleeves and forced him to kneel down.

At that moment, Takumi was secretly shocked, and Hideki became more and more disrespectful to him.

I wonder if it was his misunderstanding, but after discovering that Qi Xiuwei was the tenth princess, Xiumu's attitude towards him became increasingly bad!

A fierce emotion flashed in Tuoye's eyes.

"Princess Ten, it's great to find you. You have suffered a lot while living in the Cangyun Kingdom. Wei Chen has already written to the King of the Sun. After a while, you will be able to return to the Changliu Kingdom with us. !”

Qi Xiuwei looked at him with cold eyes.

"When I go back to Chang Liu Country, what can you give me?"

Hideki was stunned: "Of course it's power and status. You have everything a princess can have."

Qi Xiuwei laughed, her dark eyes seemed to be covered with two shadows.

"I originally had a satisfying life in Cangyun Country, but Shen Ningning harmed me. Do you really think I care about Changliu Country? If I hadn't been forced into a desperate situation by her, why would I have chosen you."

After that, she walked away: "Don't follow me, you make me feel sick."

This was exactly what Hideki wanted. He hurriedly chased after him.

"Ten Princess! Weichen knows the resentment in your heart. Please forgive Weichen for saying something unpleasant. Princess Funing seems to treat you as a friend and does everything for you, but the tragedy you are in today is all because of her. .”

Qi Xiuwei suddenly stopped and stared at him with cold eyes.

"Do you even think so?"

"If she hadn't been so meddlesome and brought Xie Ming'an, the minister of Dali Temple, to the Qi Mansion, how could you and your family be separated by life and death?"

After Xiumu finished speaking, Qi Xiuwei gritted her teeth and nodded: "It's okay if the old lady is dead, she shouldn't be alive, but Shen Ningning made me lose my parents, and made me a member of the Changliu Kingdom, forcing me to leave The home where I have lived for more than ten years.”

"If I don't retaliate for such hatred, I'll be nothing but a human being!"

Xiumu bowed his hands and said, "Wei Chen is willing to help the princess! Eradicate Funing and let you vent your bad breath!"

Qi Xiuwei laughed, not taking it seriously.

"It's just you? This is Cangyun Kingdom. She is the most favored princess. The emperor, prince and prime minister all indulge her. What can you do?"

"This is very simple," Xiumu lowered his voice, as if he had already made a plan: "I heard that Princess Funing is sad because of you, so as long as you pretend to make peace with her, you can force her to hand over the secret recipe of gunpowder. Give it to you, or you will break off all relations with her.”

"Make good use of Princess Funing's guilt and sympathy. Princess Ten, you are bound to win. Once we get this secret gunpowder recipe and bring it back to Changliu Country, Princess Funing will naturally become the sinner of Cangyun Country."

There was a hint of laughter in his tone, and it was so vicious that it was terrifying.

"When the time comes, it is conceivable that what you are experiencing now will be returned to Princess Funing a hundred times a thousand times. Princess Ten, this is a good opportunity. Don't miss it and never come back again!"

Qi Xiuwei's face turned cold: "I have completely severed ties with her. Do you think she will still believe me if I go to find her now?"

Hideki glanced at Takuno beside him.

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, his eyes dark, looking scheming.

"There is a bitter plot. I don't know if the tenth princess is willing to cooperate with the minister."

Qi Xiuwei took two steps forward: "You should come and listen."

*

Five days later.

Shen Ningning sat alone on the second floor of the spacious restaurant, looking at the passers-by on the street.

The girl held her chin up with a sad look on her face.

She has been frowning for many days, and her friends all know that she feels guilty about Qi Xiuwei.

It was impossible for Shen Ningning to watch Qi Xiuwei sit in prison for ten years, and the emperor would not let Qi Xiuwei go.

Therefore, she chose to let Qi Xiuwei recognize her identity as the tenth princess of Changliu Kingdom.

But what she did was equivalent to ruining Qi Xiuwei's future life. She had no way to stay in Cangyun Country.

Just as Shen Ningning was sighing, suddenly, a bloody man fell from the roof, smashed the tiles, and fell directly to her table.

Shen Ningning was so frightened that she turned pale. After seeing the other person clearly, she exclaimed: "Tuo Ye? Why is it you?"

Tuoye covered the wound on his arm and staggered to his feet.

"Princess, save me, someone is trying to kill me!"

Before Shen Ningning could think about it, a killer in black jumped down from the roof.

The princess's secret guards hiding nearby immediately swarmed up and fought with them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Ningning protected Tuoye and hid in the private room aside, holding on to the door.

Tuoye was bleeding profusely and his lips turned white.

Shen Ningning quickly took out the water bag she carried with her and cleaned his wounds.

Tuoye clenched his teeth in pain.

"Not good!" Shen Ningning pointed to his wound: "Those assassin knives are poisonous! Look, your wound is turning blue."

Tuoye lowered his head and saw that, as expected, the edges of his injured area were glowing green and black.

He was shocked and felt something was wrong.

Hideki didn't tell him that those assassins' knives would be coated with poison! (End of chapter)
