Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen

Zhan Yilu walked into the Yangxin Palace, where Emperor Xia Ming was waiting for her.

She stepped forward:

"Your Majesty, are you still awake so late?"

Emperor Xia Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at her:

"Did you find what I wanted?"

Zhan Yilu walked to a chair at the side without any rules, sat down, and poured himself a cup of tea.

She had come all the way back from Mount Yi and had not had time to drink a sip of water. After she quenched her thirst, she slowly said:

"How could I not help Your Majesty find out the information you want? Your Majesty is right. Feng Qingluan seems to have a hiding space that ordinary people cannot see."

Emperor Xia Ming's eyes lit up:

"What's going on? Tell me now!"

A few days ago, Emperor Xia Ming asked Long Yingwei to find Zhan Yilu, as he had a task to assign to her.

Ever since the last time the Dragon Shadow Guard leader Xuan Kong gave Zhan Yilu a martial arts secret book "Flying Star Technique", Zhan Yilu has been practicing in hiding for several months.

During this period, Xuan Kong kept in touch with her, telling her that it was His Majesty who saved her life, and gave her a martial arts secret book, hoping that she would grow up quickly and be able to rival Xie Jin in the future.

Zhan Yilu's goal is to kill Feng Qingluan, snatch Xie Jin away, and let him stay at her feet and become her man.

It is not easy to suppress Xie Jin. There are two ways to do it. One is to have higher martial arts than him, and the other is to destroy Xie Jin's martial arts.

If she wants to destroy Xie Jin, she doesn't have the strength to do so at the moment. She can only study hard and practice diligently, so that one day she can kill Feng Qingluan, avenge her previous revenge, and snatch Xie Jin away, thus having the best of both worlds.

Therefore, when Zhan Yiliu learned that the mysterious masked man who saved her twice was the leader of the Dragon Shadow Guard beside the emperor, she knew that Emperor Xia Ming was helping her with all his strength in order to use her to deal with Xie Jin and Feng Qingluan.

So she reached an agreement with Emperor Xia Ming.

The request was that Emperor Xia Ming must keep Xie Jin alive, and she promised to take Xie Jin away from the court and never let him pose any threat to Emperor Xia Ming again in this life.

Emperor Xia Ming agreed and specially found her to let her find out the secret hidden by Feng Qingluan.

Zhan Yilu's goal is to get rid of Feng Qingluan and force Feng Qingluan into a desperate situation. Feng Qingluan will definitely use a secret space to hide in order to save her life and avoid being hunted down.

At this moment, Zhan Yiliu was no match for Feng Qingluan. If Zhan Yiliu could kill Feng Qingluan in one fell swoop in the palace, he would have solved one problem for him.

It’s a good thing that Feng Qingluan’s secret cannot be found out even if she is killed.

Emperor Xia Ming knew that Zhan Yilu would come to see him tonight, so he didn't go to bed and waited for her to come.

Zhan Yiliu said: "Feng Qingluan thought I was still the snake girl as before, so she only left two people to protect me, hoping to lure me out and kill me, but she miscalculated.

When she was in danger, she asked Shen Wan and Xue Zimo to enter the room. I chased them immediately and unexpectedly found that the room was empty. Feng Qingluan and her two guards were nowhere to be seen.

There was no sign of human presence in the room. His Majesty said that she might have a space to hide in. She must have used the space to hide with others."

Zhan Yilu told Emperor Xia Ming what she had discovered about Feng Qingluan's secret. Emperor Xia Ming's eyes sparkled and he walked around the room excitedly.

"It is true! Feng Qingluan is carrying another dimension on her body!"

The time when Feng Qingluan brought him to Liu Ruochu's room to listen to her confession of her crime in person, she also used that space.

In that space, Emperor Xia Ming smelled a pungent odor that he had never smelled before.

He didn't know that it was the smell of disinfectant, he just felt that he had never smelled it before in his life.

Emperor Xia Ming had thought before that Feng Qingluan should have performed surgery on patients in that space.

No wonder she always locked everyone out when she was treating a patient, because once someone entered the room during Feng Qingluan's surgery, they would definitely find that there was no one in the room. She had already taken the patient into a secret space for surgery.

Emperor Xia Ming paced excitedly.

Feng Qingluan can heal people with serious injuries or missing limbs in that space. Does that mean there are all kinds of rare treasures hidden there?

If he got Feng Qingluan's space, could he be treated in it if something unexpected happened in the future?

This can save his life at a critical moment better than the elixir of immortality he takes every day!

The more Emperor Xia Ming thought about it, the more excited he became. He was eager to get Feng Qingluan's secret space. He suddenly stopped and said to Zhan Yiliu:

"You did very well this time, and it was worth my training. In a month, Xie Jin will lead his army to the west to fight against the Kelun Kingdom. When he destroys the Kelun Kingdom, no matter you want to kill him or take him away, I will never let him return to the capital again. How and when to do it is up to you!

In addition, before you kill Feng Qingluan, force her to hand over the space to me. This is my only request of you. Otherwise, you know what the consequences will be. "

Zhan Yiliu sneered: "Your Majesty, are you threatening me?"

Emperor Xia Ming said: "I can support you, but I can also destroy you. Once you defeat Xie Jin, will he still be able to fight me? By then, I will kill the man you love, and everything you have done now will be in vain, right?"

Zhan Yiliu's eyes suddenly turned cold:

"You are worthy of being His Majesty, the ruler of the world. You clearly want to use me. I don't want to be an enemy of Your Majesty. I can agree to your request, but Xie Jin's life and death must be decided by me!"

Emperor Xia Ming said: "This is natural."

Zhan Yilu bowed and left the Yangxin Palace.

After she left, Emperor Xia Ming called out Xuan Kong.

"Send someone to follow her. If she dares to disobey my request and wants to take Feng Qingluan's space for herself, then wait until she defeats Xie Jin and kill the two of them."

Xuankong responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Hou House.

Jiang Qu came to see Shen Wan with a lunch box. He accidentally said something that revealed his feelings, which Shen Wan noticed and asked him back.

Jiang Qu had never thought that Shen Wan would ask him directly. He was confused for a moment and stood there with a red face. It took him a long time to come back to his senses under Shen Wan's gaze.

His face flushed and he swallowed nervously before putting the last plate of pastries in his hand on the table.

Having asked this question, he admitted that there would be two possible outcomes.

Either it succeeds, or Shen Wan rejects it.

After preparing himself mentally, Jiang Qu looked at Shen Wan sincerely:

"Well, I like you. I've had a strange feeling towards you since the first time we met."

After he said this, he didn't know what to say next and looked at Shen Wan nervously.

There was no trace of emotion on Shen Wan's face, and her eyes were even colder than before:

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint Guard Jiang. Before I avenge my father, I won't consider the relationship between men and women. I stayed in the Marquis' Mansion to seek revenge on the snake girl.

Once I kill her, I will leave. Guard Jiang, please do not waste your feelings on someone you just met by chance."

Jiang Qu had expected her polite yet distant refusal, but hearing Shen Wan say this in person still made him feel hurt.

Jiang Qu forced a smile:

"I see. I was just being sentimental. Snake girls are not easy to deal with. You may face danger if you want to avenge your father."

Shen Wan's eyes were firm:

"No matter what danger there is, I must kill Zhan Yiliu with my own hands!"

Jiang Qu stopped smiling and said in a deep voice:

"I hope you achieve what you want. If you need anything, you can call me. Also, just because I like you doesn't necessarily mean you like me. My feelings for you are not wasted. You should have a good rest. I will come to see you when I am free."

Jiang Qu clenched his fists, his palms sweating from nervousness. He looked at Shen Wan deeply and left the room.

Watching him walk away, Shen Wan thought that even if she knew Jiang Qu's feelings, her mood would not be affected.

But she was wrong. Jiang Qu's lost figure was imprinted in her mind, causing her heart to surge with indescribable emotions.

Shen Wan pursed her lips and decided not to think about it anymore.
