The first top lady

Written by Qiongtian Yu.

Qin Dian and his men went to the yard to welcome Song Yixuan and the others back, and the black umbrella they held up covered most of the sky.

The group passed under the umbrella and walked into the main hall cleanly.

"You must be frozen. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some sweet ginger soup and send it over right away." Qin Dian said with a smile.

Sheng Kai touched the beads of sweat on his forehead and confirmed that it was sweat, not rain. "Uncle Qin, it's over 30 degrees Celsius, how can you freeze?"

Look at the clothes without even a drop of raindrop on them. Do you still need to drink ginger soup?

"What do you know? There is hail in the dog days of summer." This is called being meticulous and taking precautions before it happens.

“Okay, okay.” Sheng Kai finally discovered that Qin Dian had completely become Song Yixuan’s “only fan”.

As soon as Song Yice entered the room, his face immediately turned gloomy. He threw his schoolbag on the sofa, picked up the fruit plate on the table, turned his grief and anger into appetite, and began to eat with relish.

Song Yixuan looked at him quietly and said softly, "Are you not having fun?"

Song Yi chewed the food that was stuffed in his mouth, put the fruit plate on the table, and said angrily: "You don't know, that Wu Lang is simply a beast! The three ghosts who pestered him are an eighty-year-old old lady, a pregnant woman who is about to give birth, and a three-year-old child."

Those tragic scenes seemed to be right in front of him. "The old lady was run over by a car. The driver accelerated and rushed forward. The person in the car who gave the order was Wu Lang. In order to catch a traitor, he killed everyone on the street where the traitor was hiding. One of them was a pregnant woman who was giving birth. And the child just passed by him, and he shot her to death. These are only the ghosts with more grievances. Who knows how many other wronged souls there are."

There was silence all around, and a heavy feeling filled the air.

Anyone who hears such a tragic story would feel sad and regretful.

Song Yishen said resolutely: "Why should I save him? This is his own karma!"

Sheng Kai, who originally hoped that Song Yice could help Wu Lang, changed his attitude after hearing what he just said.

He knew that there were no good people in the forbidden area. People like Wu Lang, whose hands were stained with countless blood, were common here.

Song Yixuan was pleased with the justice and kindness of Song Yice, but that was the rule in the Forbidden City.

There is no justice or fairness here.

"I just want you to have some fun. There's no need to be so hard on yourself. If you don't want to save me, then don't save me." Song Yixuan comforted him, "Okay, you're still not happy. There's an indoor shooting range in the back. Let Shengkai take you there to have some fun?"

Song Yi pouted and thought for a while, "Okay then." He really shouldn't be sulking because of a bad guy. After thinking it through, he happily went to play shooting.

During dinner, the rain had lightened a little, but thunder continued to rumble above the clouds, as if a bigger rainstorm was brewing.

"Butler Qin, Miss Wu from Heilitang is here and is waiting at the door. I didn't let them in." The guard came in to report.

Qin Dian ran in and told the news to Song Yixuan and Guan Qian who were having dinner. He guessed, "Is she here to look for Yi Ce?"

From what Song Yice said before, he could save Wu Lang but didn't want to.

Wu Kunyi must have come to ask Song Yice to go back and treat Wu Lang.

"Then I just rejected her directly." Qin Dian said and was about to walk out.

Song Yice's attitude had been made very clear in the afternoon. He would not let Wu Kunyi come in and embarrass Song Yichen's younger brother.

"Miss Wu, you should go back." Qin Dian stood inside the gate and said through the outermost hollow carved iron door, "Yice is a righteous child and very stubborn. He will not change his mind about what he has decided."

"Butler Qin, please go and pass the message again." Wu Kunyi stepped forward anxiously, and the female disciple holding an umbrella behind him hurriedly followed him, "I want to meet the young master in person. I understand his concerns, but I want to tell him something in person."

"Forget it, he doesn't want to see you." Qin Dian turned around and walked inside.

Wu Kunyi hurriedly opened his mouth and shouted, "Butler Qin, Butler Qin, I really have no other choice. Can you let me see Miss Song? I am willing to agree to any conditions! Please let me see Miss Song!"

“Miss…” She was the female disciple who had almost fought with Sheng Kai and Song Yi Ce in Heili Hall before. “I don’t think they will agree to save the hall master.”

Wu Kunyi retracted his gaze, which had long since lost sight of Qin Dian, and turned to the person next to him and said, "Fu Qing, you are the only person I can trust now, so you have to go back and help me take care of my dad."

"Miss, then you..." The female disciple Fu Qing was a little hesitant.

"I will beg them here until they are willing to see me." Wu Kun said with a firm look, "As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, I can't give up."

"Miss," Fu Qing wanted to say something but stopped, but seeing that Wu Kunyi was determined, he knew that he could not persuade her, so he stopped trying. "Miss, don't worry, I will take good care of the hall master and wait for you to come back."

She stuffed the umbrella into Wu Kunyi's hand, ran back to the car in the rain, and then returned to Heilitang.

……

At this time, Zhang Qingdong's men had also arrived at Heili Hall, and they were confronting Hu Quan's men in the hall, neither of them giving in.

"Hu Quan, Hu Quan, I didn't expect you to be so despicable that you came to murder the hall master behind my back." Zhang Qingdong spoke slowly, with a hint of disdain and sarcasm on his lips.

He had heard about how Hu Quan was thrown into the rain by Song Yixuan, and was glad that he came a little late and did not meet Song Yixuan, whom he could not afford to offend.

Hu Quan snorted coldly and cursed, "Why are you still pretending to be stupid with me? Aren't you here to rebel as well? The hall master is lying in the room in the inner courtyard, do you dare to kill him?"

It would be great if I could use Zhang Qingdong to get rid of Wu Lang. In this way, no matter how much Qiong Tianyu investigates, he can't be blamed.

However, he was very curious whether Guan Qian and Song Yixuan were protecting Wu Lang and Wu Kunyi.

It was this ambiguous attitude that kept him from knowing where to start.

It is not right to kill, and it is not right not to kill.

"Then why don't you kill him?" Zhang Qingdong saw through Hu Quan's provocation. "A dying man, how can you not defeat him?"

"There's no point in us arguing here. Wu Kunyi has already gone to Qiong Tianyu to ask for help." Hu Quan said slowly, "If she really finds help, none of us will have a chance to take the position of hall master."

"Didn't you see Master Jin and Miss Song in person this afternoon?" Zhang Qingdong continued to twirl the Buddhist beads in his hand calmly. "You should know whether she can invite people here or not."

Otherwise, could they still sit here and talk peacefully like they are now?

"Okay." Those words just now were just a test of each other. Hu Quan picked up the teacup and said blatantly: "Then we will wait here for the hall master to die. Who can ascend to the throne of the hall master after that will depend on who has the greater ability."

"Okay." Zhang Qingdong continued to twirl the Buddhist beads and slowly closed his eyes.

None of them dared to test Qiong Tian Yuzhe's intentions, so they did not dare to kill Wu Lang.

Zhang Qingdong suddenly opened his eyes and said, "If she really convinces Qiong Tianyu..."

"You'd better not think so!" Hu Quan said unhappily.

……

Qiong Tianyu was standing outside the door, where Wu Kunyi was wandering with an umbrella. She stood on tiptoe to look inside, but she never saw another person.

It had been dark for a long time. A sudden thunder gave her goose bumps all over her body. Heavy rain poured down, dipping the umbrella in her hand.

The drainage system in the forbidden area was not very good. After an afternoon of heavy rain, the ground was already ankle-deep with water.

Wu Kunyi had been soaking in the water for three hours in her single shoes. Now the rain was getting heavier and most of her clothes were wet. She felt the cold air around her beginning to roll towards her and invade her body.

Suddenly, a light flashed in the yard, and she immediately shouted, "Miss Song, Butler Tan..."

"Wu Kunyi wants to see Miss Song! He wants to see Dr. Song!"

"Wu Kunyi wants to see Master Jin!"

……

Mao Yilong quickly turned off the flashlight. "What's going on? Wu Kunyi from Heilitang? Why is she here?"

Di Shuai was curious and wanted to go over to check, but Leng Yuyang, who came from behind, pulled him back and said, "Don't cause trouble!"

"Ah? Not really."

Mao Yilong glanced in the direction of the main hall and said, "Butler Tan hasn't come out yet, so we'd better not go there."
