Traveling through another world to stir the emperor's heart

After hearing what Zizhu Yingchen said, Feng Qingyue quickly stepped out from behind him and clarified, "He's one of us! He came here with me."

At this time, Jun Lingyuan clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and saluted Zizhu Yingchen: "I am Jun Lingyuan, and I am honored to meet you, Senior."

"Jun Lingyuan? His Majesty Beiming Jun Lingyuan?" Zizhu Yingchen asked indifferently.

Jun Lingyuan smiled and nodded, responding gently: "It is me. Senior, do you know me?"

Zizhu Yingchen snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "I don't know him! I just heard of him."

After saying that, he turned to look at Feng Qingyue and warned her solemnly, "Qingyue, you must stay away from him! The men from Beiming Country are not good people!"

These words made Feng Qingyue stunned for a moment. She tilted her head, her face full of questions, and looked at Jun Lingyuan intently, as if trying to find an explanation from him.

Jun Lingyuan felt helpless when he saw her puzzled look, so he could only shrug his shoulders to indicate that he didn't know either.

Seeing this, Jun Lingyuan couldn't help but ask, "Senior, do you have any misunderstandings about my Beiming Kingdom?"

However, Zizhu Yingchen ignored him and continued to pull Feng Qingyue forward, saying as they walked, "Qingyue, come over here with your uncle and tell him how you have been spending the past ten years. Also, how much do you know about your mother?"

He looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, as if he had a lot of questions that urgently needed Feng Qingyue's answers.

Feng Qingyue was dragged by Zizhu Yingchen all the way to his seat. Before leaving, she looked back at Jun Lingyuan who was standing there, with a look of help in her eyes, as if asking, "What should I do?"

"Senior, it's getting late. Qingyue and I have to go back." Jun Lingyuan took a step closer to Zizhu Yingchen and tried to respond.

Zizhu Yingchen didn't care and turned to look at Feng Qingyue, "Go back? Where are you going back to? Qingyue, from today on, this is your home!"

He turned to Ali who was standing beside him, "Ali, go make some arrangements."

"Okay." Ali responded and immediately turned and left.

Feng Qingyue hesitated for a moment and spoke in a low voice, "Um... well, I think I should call you uncle, right?"

Zizhu Yingchen was slightly stunned, then regained his composure, nodded, and motioned for her to continue.

Feng Qingyue took a deep breath and said in a slightly heavy voice, "Uncle, I know you must have many questions to ask me now, but we are here today for a reason."

Since you are my uncle, I will not beat around the bush and will ask directly.

Are you the ones who used the minerals to pollute people's water wells and food?

As soon as the words came out, the whole hall fell into deathly silence.

Zizhu Yingchen remained silent for a long time, his eyes as sharp as knives, staring at Feng Qingyue quietly.

Feng Qingyue's heart tightened when she saw his cold gaze. She lowered her head involuntarily, fearing that she had said something wrong.

After a moment, she mustered up the courage to raise her head and look directly at Zizhu Yingchen.

"Qingyue, who asked you to ask these questions?"

"Uncle, no one ordered me to do that."

Zizhu Yingchen sneered, a barely perceptible flash of resentment in his eyes. "Hmph, I don't need to guess, I know it must be the current monarch, Lan Xuanming, who sent you here, right?"

Feng Qingyue quickly shook her head, firmly denying, "It wasn't him, Uncle. He didn't ask me to come. I came because I couldn't bear to see the suffering of innocent people. Uncle, no matter how much you hate the Lan family today, those ordinary people are innocent after all! What crime have they committed?"

Zizhu Yingchen's face darkened, his eyes widened in anger, and his voice almost trembled: "Haha, innocent? If only one of them had stood up and spoken for us back then, our Zizhu clan wouldn't have ended up like this!"

Feng Qingyue tried to persuade him, "Uncle, you are very clear-minded. This isn't their fault. In the face of such a powerful force, how could ordinary people have the courage to help anyone?"

However, Zizhu Yingchen's anger did not subside, and his emotions became more and more agitated. "But our Zizhu clan has protected them for over a hundred years! When we encountered disaster, where were they? Not a single person dared to stand up! Don't these ungrateful people deserve to die?"

Feng Qingyue shook her head lightly and said helplessly, "Uncle, if you treat them like this just because of this, it would be too harsh. They just want to survive, what's wrong with that?"

Zizhu Yingchen's eyes flashed with disbelief, and his voice grew hoarse. "What about our Zizhu clan? My parents, my sister, what mistakes did they make? Why do they have to endure such an unfair fate?"

At this point, Zizhu Yingchen's eyes were filled with tears and her emotions completely exploded.

As his emotions fluctuated violently, he suddenly released a powerful force that swept over him like a violent storm.

Feng Qingyue was shocked by this force and retreated repeatedly, staggering and barely standing firm.

Seeing this, Jun Lingyuan immediately judged that the situation was not good and rushed towards Zizhu Yingchen in an instant, ready to stop him.

However, just as Jun Lingyuan was about to approach, Zizhu Yingchen rushed out of the room like a meteor and disappeared into the night.

Outside the door, Ali came hurriedly. Seeing Zizhu Yingchen's disappearing figure, she was shocked and shouted quickly, "Yingchen!" However, her voice was swept away by the strong wind and disappeared in an instant.

Ali was so anxious that her heart was broken. She rushed towards Feng Qingyue and Jun Lingyuan, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Hurry up and chase him! He's gone crazy! If we don't stop him in time, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Feng Qingyue and Jun Lingyuan reacted immediately, exchanged glances, and simultaneously used their lightness skills to chase after him at high speed, like an arrow shot from a bow.

Watching them gradually disappear into the distance, Ali clenched her fists tightly, her heart beating rapidly as she paced anxiously, "What should I do? Qingfeng hasn't come back yet. If they can't catch up with Yingchen..."
