"It's indeed a big deal!" Zang Yuhua's hands were trembling slightly, "Third brother has gone to great lengths to get rid of me!"

Scavenging bugs are voodoo insects that live in the human body. They are usually sealed in the teeth with wax balls, but once they are bitten, the voodoo bugs will pour out and swallow the person in the blink of an eye.

Once the poisoned blood is splashed onto the bodies of humans and animals, it can quickly kill them.

It is because the killing method of scavengers is very fast and abnormal, so it is also one of the commonly used assassination methods in Dongjiang Kingdom.

Chen Qianzhe looked at him: "Are you sure it was your third brother who did this?"

"Besides him, I can't think of anyone else who could harm me like this!"

"So……"

"Let's continue the transaction!" Zang Yuhua finally made up his mind: "You help me succeed, and I will make a contract with you!"

-

Ling Xi sat curled up in the carriage and thought for a while, unable to figure out what was wrong.

Subconsciously, she felt like she had an impression of the assassin's assassination, but when she searched her memory, she couldn't find any relevant memory points.

While he was struggling, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Ling Xi leaned back and almost fell over: "What's wrong?"

"Miss, it's a convoy. It looks like a wealthy family is buying a dowry. There are many things."

"Dowry?" Ling Xi casually raised a corner of the car curtain: "Speaking of which, I haven't gotten my dowry yet..."

With that said, she jumped out of the car: "You go to the intersection ahead and wait, I'll go shopping there."

"Miss, are you alone?" the coachman asked worriedly, "otherwise, you should go home first, call Hua Luo and bring a few people with you, and let them go shopping with you."

"It's okay. I'm going shopping in broad daylight. How could someone tie me up?" Ling Xi didn't care.

She had something on her mind and felt depressed, so she just wanted to take a walk, but she didn't really want to buy a dowry.

The dowry-buying convoy was very long, and there were a bunch of exquisite items on the car.

Ling Xi glanced casually a few times, and just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a voice: "Miss Ling, are you here to buy a dowry too?"

"Ah?" Ling Xi looked at the beautiful girl walking towards the crowd surrounded by flowers and flowers, feeling a little confused, "No, I'm just casually walking around..."

This girl looks familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen her before.

The life of the original paper person was very chaotic, and some memory lines did not exist. She did not dare to recognize him rashly. After saying hello, she turned around and left.

But the girl ran after her and stopped in front of her: "Sister, what do you mean? Why did you leave as soon as you saw your sister?"

elder sister?

Ling Xixin said that I only have a big heroine sister like Ling Xinyao, so where can I find another sister?
Could it be that she is the "illegitimate daughter" created by her old father?
Shouldn't it?

With a character like Ling Zaifu's, if a woman really married into the family, she wouldn't have an illegitimate daughter.

Seeing the bad look in Ling Xi's eyes, the girl smiled and said, "Isn't it possible? Sister doesn't recognize me anymore? I am Na Ling'er, and my father is Na General..."

"That Ling'er?!" Ling Xi finally remembered the name.

However, I didn’t know him because of the paper person, but because this name appeared in the red book in which the Queen Mother selected concubines for the tyrant.

In other words, the girl Na Ling'er in front of her is her "love rival" for favor in the future.

Thinking of this, she glanced at the carts of dowry behind her with a look of surprise and confusion.

"It turns out to be that young lady, but...are these things yours?"

"Yes!" Na Ling'er said arrogantly: "These are the best and most popular dowries in Kyoto. I have reserved them for a long time in advance, and I just got them now."

"That's my congratulations to that young lady," Ling Xi smiled politely with her eyes: "I didn't expect that after we haven't seen each other for a few days, that young lady already has a wife. I don't know which young master is so lucky that he can Marry that young lady as your wife?" "Miss Ling, are you real or fake?" The maid on one side rolled her eyes disdainfully and interrupted Ling Xi: "Our young lady was appointed by His Majesty for the wedding. Don’t you know?”

"……what?"

【Wedding? 】

[Picked by the tyrant? 】

[Did I miss something? 】

【its not right! 】

[My front foot has just left the palace! 】

[Even if the tyrant drafted the decree immediately, he wouldn't have sent it to the general's house so quickly, right? 】

【and……】

[If I remember correctly, the tyrant promised me that I would decide those two places! 】

[What Ling'er knows about things that I don't even know? 】

【Or……】

[The so-called selection of a concubine from the red book is just a formality. In fact, the Queen Mother has already chosen her own person! 】

[No matter which one the tyrant chooses, the Queen Mother will ultimately decide on the girl she chooses! 】

[And this Na Ling'er is from the Queen Mother! 】

【…】

Thinking of this, Ling Xi's mind changed quickly and she quickly adjusted her countermeasures.

She rolled back her long eyelashes and smiled awkwardly but politely: "I don't mean anything else, I'm just a little surprised... His Majesty actually chose that young lady to be his concubine."

"Ling Xi, what do you mean?" Ling'er's smile suddenly sank: "You can be selected by His Majesty, and he also said that you will be selected as the queen, why can't I be selected as the concubine?! You look down on me! ?!”

"No, no, of course not, it's just, this, me, that..." Ling Xi quickly waved her hands to explain, but she looked embarrassed and hesitated, as if she didn't know how to explain.

"What do you mean by hesitating?"

"No, it's not interesting." Ling Xi avoided Ling'er's eyes, as if she was in a panic: "I just find it strange that that young lady doesn't seem to be in the list of concubines appointed by His Majesty..."

"What did you say?" Ling'er suddenly grabbed Ling Xi's wrist and said viciously: "Why is it that I'm not on your Majesty's list? What list are you talking about?"

"I...I didn't say anything?" Ling Xi panicked and struggled quickly: "I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything."

"You just said that His Majesty has decided on the list of concubines?"

"……Uh?"

"talk!"

"..."

Just when Ling'er was about to explode, the maid was smart and quickly reminded her in a low voice: "Miss, there are so many people here..."

They were on the street at this time, and if something happened, it would spread throughout the capital in half a day.

Ling'er also realized it and immediately grabbed Ling Xi's wrist and dragged her into the teahouse on the roadside.

The maid threw down a bag of coins and cleared out all the guests inside.

Ling'er angrily threw Ling Xi onto the seat and said fiercely: "Tell me, what on earth is going on?!"

"No, nothing happened?" Ling Xi whispered pitifully and timidly: "Just, the Queen Mother gave Your Majesty a list and asked Your Majesty to choose a concubine from it... Your Majesty, the person chosen is not you!"
