Chapter 88: The Decisive and Killing Goddess of War vs. the Crazy and Paranoid Emperor 18

After Emperor Cangming finished his sword dance, he looked at Quan Jiuxi, only to find that Quan Jiuxi had fallen into a deep sleep.

Di Cangming chuckled softly, and his laughter seemed particularly gentle in the silent night.

He slowly walked towards the sleeping girl, and gently stroked her hair that was blown by the breeze with his slender fingers.

His eyes were fixed on her face greedily, his eyes were full of possessiveness. He forbearingly pressed his lips against hers. At that moment, his breathing became rapid, and the madness in his heart was almost out of control.

But he was afraid of waking her up, so he suppressed his impulse and instead gently touched her eyebrows and nose.

"Ajiu." His voice was low and gentle, but there was a barely perceptible madness hidden in it.

When the cool breeze blew, Di Cangming picked her up and carefully returned to her room. He gently placed her on the bed, covered her with the quilt, looked at her deeply, and then turned and left.

……

Quan Jiuxi woke up the next day still a little confused. Wasn't the little villain dancing last night? What happened next?

[Sir, the strategy progress has increased again.]

Quan Jiuxi ignored it and was still trying to figure out what happened yesterday.

"Miss, eunuch Xiao Fuzi from the palace is here to deliver an oral order." Cuizhu opened the door and walked in.

"Well, what did you say?" Quan Jiuxi was still a little dizzy after the hangover, and his voice was hoarse like sandpaper.

"His Majesty has released you from house arrest. You will need to attend court tomorrow."

Quan Jiuxi turned over and responded lightly.

"Miss, today is the coming-of-age banquet for Miss Jiang, the daughter of the Minister of War. The old lady wants to ask if you would like to attend."

Quan Jiuxi recalled his memory, Jiang Ruxue.

The two are two years apart in age. When they were young, he often did things against Quan Jiuxi and was always chasing after Lin Qinghuai.

Quan Jiuxi thought for a moment and said, "Go."

Lin Qinghuai must have known what she had done, so it was impossible for them to form a marriage alliance.

In this Great Xia, besides her, the only one who holds military power is the old man in the Ministry of War.

……

At the coming-of-age ceremony, Jiang Ruxue wore a gorgeous Confucian dress, the sleeves of which swayed gently in the breeze.

She knelt devoutly in front of the incense, her posture dignified and elegant.

An old woman from the clan combed her hair and said, "On an auspicious day in the month of the year, you will wear your first clothes. Let go of your childish ambitions and cultivate virtue. May you live a long and healthy life and enjoy great happiness."

After it was over, Jiang Ruxue slowly stood up, walked lightly with lotus steps, and returned to the east room. When she came out again, she had changed her clothes. She knelt in front of the Minister of War Jiang Lin, with a smile on her face.

The guests who came today were all ministers from aristocratic families who were on good terms with the Jiang family.

The guests were whispering to each other and talking a lot.

"Miss Jiang is now of marriageable age." An old man in a brocade robe said, stroking his beard.

"Yes, but I heard that Miss Jiang's heart belongs to Lin Qinghuai, the number one young master in our capital." A lady, holding a round fan, echoed softly.

"The two of them are quite a good match, and their family backgrounds are well matched." Another guest nodded slightly with a smile on his face.

After hearing this, Jiang Ruxue raised her chin proudly like a peacock, her eyes full of pride and longing.

Of course she and Brother Qinghuai are a good match, and she must become his wife.

In the corner, Chu Youran secretly mocked herself in her heart, tightly clutching her handkerchief. She had already secretly decided to spend her life with Brother Qinghuai, so there was no place for Jiang Ruxue.

However, at this moment, Lin Qinghuai walked in gracefully. Jiang Ruxue couldn't hide her smile, her cheeks flushed, "Brother Qinghuai, you're here!"

Chu Youran stood up suddenly in shock, her eyes widening! Why is Brother Qinghuai here? And he brought a gift box with him! What does he mean by this?

Don’t you know the significance of giving gifts at a coming-of-age ceremony?

Then who is she?

As a modern person, does she have to be a concubine in ancient times?

Lin Qinghuai's lips curled up, his smile as warm as a spring breeze. He took out the gift box, gently opened it, and revealed an exquisite hairpin. He said slowly, "This hairpin is exquisite. I wish Sister Ruxue a prosperous life and a promising future."

Jiang Ruxue was filled with joy and bowed, the two of them seemed to be in love.

"Oh, it seems that both of them have this idea?" A guest joked with a smile.

"If it weren't for the Prime Minister...good things would probably be happening soon." Another guest shook his head slightly and sighed.

"Mr. Lin needs to observe mourning for three years." Someone reminded him in a low voice.

Lin Qinghuai looked around and frowned slightly.

That woman Quan Jiuxi didn’t come?

When he saw Chu Youran, he couldn't help but pause, a moment of panic flashed across his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and sent her a comforting look.

Chu Youran still stared at Lin Qinghuai, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

If Lin Qinghuai dares to make her his concubine, don't blame her for being ruthless. She is not powerless to compete in this world!

……

Quan Jiuxi stood on the wall, overlooking the scene in the courtyard, with a sarcastic smile on her lips. It seemed that her guess was right.

Next, Lin Qinghuai was going to suck the blood of the Jiang family. Tsk, didn’t he even look at the old Minister of War’s face, it was so dark that he was about to draw his sword and kill them.

Quan Jiuxi found it funny when he saw Lin Qinghuai's confused look.

He had no other choice, his father was dead and he had to rely on women.

Don't be afraid of playing with fire and getting burned in the end.

"General, do you think they are a good match?" Di Cangming's low voice suddenly sounded in Quan Jiuxi's ears. He didn't know when he came to Quan Jiuxi's side silently.

Quan Jiuxi was startled by the sudden sound and her eye twitched. She turned to look at Di Cangming, only to see that his black robe was swaying gently in the breeze, and there was a hint of resentment on his charming face.

After making progress in defeating the minor villain, he's still as clingy as ever.

"Instead of staying in the palace reviewing memorials, you appear and disappear like ghosts." Quan Jiuxi said unhappily.

Di Cangming smiled, his narrow eyes flickering with light, "Ajiu hasn't answered my question yet."

Quan Jiuxi looked him up and down carefully and didn't say anything for a long time.

Seeing that she was silent, Di Cangming raised his eyebrows slightly, and in a flash he stepped forward and pinched her earlobe, his warm breath spraying on her ear, "Ajiu, answer me."

Quan Jiuxi immediately pulled his hand away, rubbed his ear, and asked with a puzzled look, "What did you experience last night?"

Di Cangming put his hands behind his back and said, "Since the general is pleased with me, please come to the palace tomorrow to have dinner with me."

Quan Jiuxi: "..."

He's still sick, who gave him the courage to order her?

Quan Jiuxi simply didn't bother to pay attention to him and casually cast his eyes towards the courtyard below.

At this time, the coming-of-age ceremony had ended. Lin Qinghuai turned and left, with Chu Youran following closely behind him.

Di Cangming's gaze was on Quan Jiuxi from beginning to end. Seeing that she ignored him and looked down instead, his deep black eyes were filled with displeasure.

When his careless gaze fell on Lin Qinghuai's back, it was suddenly filled with a strong murderous intent.

Lin Qinghuai seemed to be aware of something and noticed this gaze. He turned around suddenly, but he noticed nothing.

He frowned and looked around vigilantly.

For some reason, ever since his father died, he always felt that he would be the next to suffer.

Quan Jiuxi touched his chin, looked thoughtfully at the two people who left together, raised his eyebrows and smiled, then flashed and flew towards Jiang Ruxue's boudoir, leaving Di Cangming there.
