After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

If this is the case, then what is the point of his persistence and hard work over the years?

Endless humiliation and powerlessness came upon him in the vast afterglow of the setting sun.

Only at this moment did he truly feel that even though he had already achieved this point, he had become the emperor's most trusted minister and subordinate.

When faced with major issues concerning family and country, he still could not change anything.

The spear dance became more and more fierce, and each move was filled with surging murderous intent, as if he wanted to vent all his emotions at the moment.

"Sir!" Hei Shiliu approached from a distance, bowed to Qi Yu and said, "Yang Batian and Yang Baxiong have already been imprisoned, but that girl is crying and making a fuss to see you!"

Qi Yu put away his spear, thought of the emperor's instructions, nodded lightly, and walked towards the back house.

After washing up, all the fatigue of the day was gone. Qi Yu squinted his eyes, leaned on the small couch, and recalled everything he had experienced in recent days.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and then he snapped his fingers and asked the Black Dragon Guard who was leaping over, "Will there be any news from the Northern Di front line in the future?"

"Replying to the lord, no!"

Qi Yu tapped lightly on the table, making a slight whirring sound, his brows furrowed, as if he was in an unsolvable knot. This shouldn't be the case. He had already sent a letter to General Cheng when he led his men to Fengcheng to raid the Northern Di spies.

He was asked to conduct a thorough investigation on the border front, uncover the traitor who was secretly communicating with the Northern Di, set up additional checkpoints, and capture the Northern Di secret guards alive!

Such a long time has passed, and there is still no news.

Could it be that the three escaped secret guards did not sneak back to the country, but are still hiding in the territory of Dayong?

When searching, they had already sent out tracking bees, but this method also has its drawbacks.

As long as the other party hides in the mountains and forests, the tracking bee can do nothing.

Because it is really difficult to train this thing, once you enter a place like a forest with a lot of mixed smells, it is very easy to get lost.

If there is no abnormality on the front line, either there is an insider colluding with the enemy, working together inside and outside to let the Northern Di people out, or the Northern Di people are still hiding in the dark, so General Xing on the front line will get nothing.

Another possibility is that the person has been caught, but was delayed on the way and has not yet arrived in the capital!

The Double Ninth Festival Palace Banquet will be held in a few days.

The envoys of the three kingdoms will surely gather in Dayong. By then, if no news arrives and the spies cannot find any trace of them, I am afraid that there will be uncontrollable anomalies.

Thinking of this, Qi Yu ordered: "Continue to send people with tracking bees to continue tracking. The other party is very likely to have followed us into the capital. We must capture him before Double Ninth Festival!"

"I obey my orders!"

The Black Dragon Guards took the order and left. The small force was divided into several secret lines, hiding in the darkness to capture the hidden rats.

The guest rooms in Qi Mansion are heavily guarded!

Before Qi Yu got close, he heard a woman screaming and shouting from inside: "I want to see Qi Yu, I want to see Qi Yu, why are you locking me up here?"

"Do you know who I am? I am the biological daughter of the current emperor. If you treat me like this today, I will definitely make you suffer when I return to the palace!"

"I want to see my father, I want to see my father, Qi Yu, how dare you treat me like this? When I see my father, I will definitely teach you a lesson!"

There was constant noise and threats.

The Black Dragon Guard who was in charge of guarding her had a blank expression on his face, as if he was tired of hearing it and said, "Do whatever you want."

Seeing Qi Yu finally coming over, everyone felt relieved.

This woman is really noisy.

She was already seriously injured, so they asked the court doctor to treat her. She had just woken up and had been tormenting them for a long time.

Everyone just hoped that Qi Yu could quickly send this noisy guy away.

I'm so tired every day.

They might as well go out and look for clues together!

Qi Yu pushed open the door, strode in, sat down on the stool beside the dining table, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Seeing Qi Yu finally show up, Yang Ying couldn't contain herself any longer and excitedly stepped forward to ask, "Qi Yu, I want to ask you, does my father know about my existence? What did he say? When will he take me into the palace?"

Qi Yu drank the tea in his cup and then said slowly, "His Majesty has issued an edict today, conferring upon Miss Zhong the title of Princess Zhaohua, temporarily residing in Qionghua Palace."

"Impossible, my father would never do this to me." Yang Ying suddenly became furious and roared loudly, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Didn't you tell Father my identity? My mother's name is Lin Yanniang. She and His Majesty met on Sanhe Bridge and fell in love at first sight. Although they were together for a short time, he will definitely have an impression of her."

"Why don't you go and tell him who I am? I'm his biological daughter. How could he deny me? How could he deny me?"

Yang Ying's eyes were red and he was hissing with all his strength, unwilling to believe this result at all.

In her opinion, Qi Yu must not have told the emperor about her identity, and the emperor must not know it yet. Otherwise, why would he not recognize his own biological daughter, but instead recognize a woman who is not related to him by blood?

Qi Yu looked at her almost crazy look and spoke again:

"I have already informed Your Majesty of the entire situation, but Your Majesty said that the affair was consensual, and that she even gave him contraceptive soup as a gift. It is impossible for this gem to remain untold among the people."

"Furthermore, even if your mother did have a one-night stand with His Majesty, she later became a bandit and became your father's wife."

"How could His Majesty be willing to acknowledge the unknown bloodline born of a woman who cheated on him?"

"Your Majesty has decreed that anyone who attempts to confuse bloodlines must die!"

Qi Yu's words were so cold that they left her speechless and in tears.

She had clearly asked her mother repeatedly.

Back then, my mother was just a girl looking forward to the future, hoping that she could marry into a wealthy family. The man was very elegant and one could tell at first glance that he was from a wealthy family.

The mother has her own selfish motives and wants to bring her son home.

She didn't even drink the bowl of contraceptive soup.

But the man left so quickly that she didn't even have time to ask where his home was. But because she was unmarried and pregnant, she had no choice but to run away from home.

While she was still searching for her husband, she was abducted by bandits and taken to the mountains, where she became their so-called wife.

But my mother was very sure that she had been pregnant for two months before she married Yang Batian.

When she was born, she was not even a month full term.

Her mother said that she was not Yang Batian's daughter, she was an accident.

That person looks like the current emperor.

How could it not be?

Her mother didn't want to marry Yang Batian, and she was also abducted. Why did she treat her like this?

"Haha..." Yang Ying burst into laughter after crying, her laughter tinged with tears, making her look even more insane. "After living a new life, I still end up like this? God, if you don't care about me at all, why give me hope?"
