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

Xie Jin smiled faintly: "How is that possible? Miss Feng just saved my life."

Feng Qingluan asked, "What does His Royal Highness Prince Rong want to talk to me about?"

Xie Jin said, "Jiang Qu, go make a pot of new tea and come in to entertain Miss Feng. I want to make a deal with Miss Feng today."

Feng Qingluan's eyes rolled slightly, and she leaned on the window frame with one hand and turned over the room.

Jinling walked over expressionlessly and closed the window.

Feng Qingluan looked at the broken tables and chairs on the ground: "The prince invited me to have tea, but there are not even tables and chairs."

Jinling pushed Xie Jin towards the antique display shelf, reached out and turned a vase on it, and the shelf split in the middle, revealing another private room. The two rooms were connected, and Xie Jin had been in this room just now.

Jiang Qu brought some new tea and poured a cup for Xie Jin and also for Feng Qingluan.

Feng Qingluan stared at Xie Jin: "I wonder what kind of deal does His Royal Highness Prince Rong want to make with me?"

Xie Jin picked up the tea and took a sip, then said:

"Before we talk about the deal, I believe Miss Feng must have understood one thing. The last attack on the palace was planned by my brother, and Chi Guang was a spy."

Feng Qingluan said, "I heard their conversation. No wonder you asked me to take off the wolf tooth chain that represents Wei You's identity. It was actually used today. If I hadn't killed Wei You myself, I'm afraid this person in front of me would have fooled me. Who is he? His disguise is amazing."

Xie Jin said, "His name is Jin Ling. He is my king's secret guard. He is good at disguise and imitation. I dealt with Wei You a few years ago and observed him. Most people would not find any flaws in his imitation."

Feng Qingluan said: "So that's how it is. My brother wants to eliminate me. I'm sure His Majesty will be shocked and saddened to hear this news."

Since ancient times, everyone in the royal family has experienced open and secret struggles. Emperor Xia Ming was afraid of Xie Jin's identity as the emperor's uncle and the god of war, but Feng Qingluan didn't feel too shocked.

Xie Jin raised the corner of his mouth, "This is not the first time, I guessed it a long time ago."

Xie Hong could not tolerate him, so he staged an attack on the palace in order to get rid of him and Wei You. This was a brilliant move to lure the enemy deeper into his territory.

Feng Qingluan said, "I knew about this and thought the prince would kill me to silence me. I never thought the prince would negotiate a deal with me. I am no longer the Princess of Chu, so I have nothing to discuss with the prince."

Xie Jin said: "Who said you don't have it? Isn't your superb medical skills your greatest reliance?"

Feng Qingluan raised her eyebrows: "Oh? What does the prince want to say?"

Xie Jin said: "You know I'm poisoned, do you have a way to detoxify me?"

Feng Qingluan said, "To be honest, I have never seen the poison in your body. I helped you suppress the poison that day, but it was a blessing in disguise. I can't cure it."

Xie Jin smiled jokingly, "Maybe since I didn't tell you what I would trade with you, Miss Feng thought it would be better to avoid trouble than to reject me. Especially since you know that the emperor wants to eliminate me, you don't want to have anything to do with me, right?"

Feng Qingluan said nothing and took a sip of tea.

She did think so. It was Xie Jin's fault for not handing over his cards first. She didn't know whether the conditions proposed by the other party would tempt her to take the risk.

Seeing Feng Qingluan was as steady as a rock, Xie Jin waited for him to continue, and said:

"Three years ago, the Marquis of the Protectorate was ordered to go to the South China Sea to eliminate pirates. When they were leaving after bombing the pirates' lair on Skull Island, their ship accidentally hit a reef, and all 53 people on board, including the Marquis of the Protectorate, were wiped out. Later, the governor of Haizhou reported the results of the investigation to Your Majesty. Miss Feng, as the daughter of the Marquis of the Protectorate, should know about this, right?"

Feng Qingluan unconsciously clenched her hands, and looked at Xie Jin with a focused gaze:

"Prince Rong, you may as well speak directly about what you want to say."

Xie Jin said, "Your mother's Yun family is a wealthy family in Jiangnan, and they are also involved in the shipbuilding industry. The Flying Eagle that the Marquis of the Protectorate took to Skull Island to suppress the bandits was built by the Yun family. I won't explain what this means. If such a ship had an accident, do you think it was really an accident, Miss Feng?"

Feng Qingluan narrowed her eyes slightly. In the original owner's memory, when her father, the Marquis of the Protectorate, died three years ago, her mother, the Yun family, went crazy and told the official who announced the incident that it was impossible. The Flying Eagle was the best and most solid warship built by the Yun family at a huge expense. It was impossible for it to hit a reef and sink to the bottom on a river without wind or waves. The helmsman and the windlass on the ship were all experienced. Even if there was a problem with the ship, there was a spare ship on board. They would definitely find a way to save the Marquis of the Protectorate.

But Yun just couldn't believe that such an indestructible warship sank into the river with all the people on board after a great victory in suppressing bandits.

When Feng Qingluan heard Xie Jin mention it today, she remembered that the Yun family had once suspected that the shipwreck was not an accident, and they firmly believed that it was man-made.

Because she seemed to have heard her mother say that the Marquis of Protectorate had sent her a letter before his death.

The original owner was still young at that time, so Yun didn't say much.

After the Marquis of Huguo was in danger, no one knew what Yun was busy with all day. Later, her spirit collapsed and her body could not bear it. After half a year of anxiety and physical exhaustion, she fell ill and died.

Thinking of this, Feng Qingluan felt depressed and uncomfortable, and said:

"My mother suspected that my father's death was intentional. Your Highness brought up the old matter again. It seems that you want to use this matter as a bargaining chip. Have you found the person who killed my father, or found something else?"

The room was silent for a moment, and Xie Jin said slowly:

"Miss Feng guessed correctly. I have found the only survivor from the Flying Eagle."

After a pause, he continued, "Your mother also found him."

Feng Qingluan was shocked. "What did you say? There are survivors, and my mother knows about it?"

She stood up excitedly: "Who is he? Where is he?"

Xie Jin said: "I placed him in a mountain villa outside the capital. He hit his head after the Eagle fell into the river and has no memory of what happened on the ship. Your mother tried to treat his amnesia, but it had little effect.

So my deal is, you help me detoxify, and I'll give you the person. As for whether you can help him recover his memory and get clues to find out whether your father was framed, it all depends on your own medical skills. How about it, Miss Feng, do you want to cooperate?"

Cooperation?

Feng Qingluan wanted to know the truth about the original owner's father's death.

Because of her father's death, her mother died of excessive grief. The person behind the scene directly caused the death of the original owner's parents. Now that the key person has appeared, how can she not investigate?

Without any hesitation, Feng Qingluan said:

"Your Highness Prince Rong's poison is not completely hopeless. Give me some time to study it. But I'll be frank with you. I can't guarantee that I can cure your poison after studying it. Are you still willing to hand you over to me?"

Xie Jin said, "Yes, he is a man without memories, and he is useless in my hands. The Marquis of Protecting the Country has made great contributions to Daxia and defended our country's southern border for decades. He has made an indelible contribution to Daxia's prosperity. If we can find the murderer who killed him, it will also comfort his spirit in heaven."

Feng Qingluan said, "Okay, it's settled. I'll make this deal."

Xie Jin said: "The man's current name is Ge Ming, and he lives in Ningxiang Village outside Beijing. If you have time, I will let Jinling take you there."

Feng Qingluan said: "Okay, Your Majesty, please stretch out your hand and I will take a tube of your blood."

Xie Jin stretched out his left hand, Feng Qingluan flipped his sleeve, and a blood collection tube and a blood collection needle appeared in his palm.

She lifted up Xie Jin's sleeve, injected the syringe into his veins and drew a tube of blood, preparing to take it back for testing.

While she was doing this, Xie Jin stared at the strange tube:

"What is this? It can draw blood from people. I have never seen this before."

Feng Qingluan: "This is a blood collection needle. I am the only one in this world who has it. It's normal that Your Majesty has never seen it."

She took out some strange things again. Xie Jin remembered that day when he was unconscious in the mountains, he vaguely heard Feng Qingluan talking about space and medical room. This woman's behavior and manners, as well as the things she took out were all very special.

After drawing blood, Feng Qingluan put the things into the space and prepared to say goodbye and leave, but heard Xie Jin say faintly:

"Yesterday, the king asked Jiang Qu to deliver the thank-you gift. What do you think of it, Miss Feng?"
