The Lord God is kneeling on the washboard again

Princess Xiao, Nalan Qin, said, "You go down first."

The maid bowed and replied, "Yes, Princess." Then she retreated respectfully.

Nalan Qin picked up the embroidery again, but her thoughts drifted away involuntarily. She thought about the various plans of the beautiful concubine and sneered in her heart.

After sensing a familiar aura and dismissing the maids, a purple-red figure hiding behind the screen slowly emerged. Nalan Qin smiled and said, "Sister Xing Xuanli, you're here."

Xing Xuanli raised her hand slightly, indicating that she didn't need to be polite, and asked seriously, "What's the situation?"

Nalan Qin replied respectfully, "Sister, that beautiful concubine wants to get her sister close to the Regent in order to gain benefits."

Xing Xuanli snorted coldly: "You don't know your own strength. What will King Xiao do?"

Nalan Qin said: "Prince Xiao seems quite interested and is planning this matter."

Xing Xuanli frowned and said, "Keep a close eye on them and don't let their plan succeed."

Nalan Qin nodded and replied, "Yes, sister, I understand."

Nalan Qin then asked, "Sister, do you want to tell the Regent?"

Xing Xuanli pondered for a moment and said, "Not yet. I don't want him to worry."

Nalan Qin responded: "Yes, don't worry, sir. I will help you monitor every move of Prince Xiao's Mansion.

Xing Xuanli said no more, turned around and disappeared into the shadows.

Nalan Qin stood there, sighed softly, and thought to himself how to deal with it next.

However, little is known about the fact that Princess Xiao Nalan Qin has another identity - Shadow Killing Tower assassin (Blood Moon)

At this time, Lingxiao Sect's Grand Elder Duan Hong said: "Master, the Sun Moon Palace is developing rapidly now. We must find allies."

The head of the sect frowned slightly and said, "Great Elder, who do you think we should form an alliance with?"

Duan Hongdao stroked his beard and said, "In my opinion, Qingmu Sect might be a good choice."

The headmaster pondered for a moment and said, "Aoki Sect? How much help can they bring to us?"

Duan Hongdao said, "The Qingmu Sect is also quite prestigious in the martial arts world. If we can form an alliance with them, our Lingxiao Sect's position in the martial arts world will be more stable."

Luo Nanyang frowned and said, "How to form an alliance."

Duan Hongdao bowed and said, "Master, we can form an alliance with the Qingmu Sect. The Qingmu Sect has many outstanding male disciples, and we also have outstanding female disciples. Through such a marriage, we can not only consolidate the relationship between the two sides, but also achieve resource sharing and enhance each other's strength."

Luo Nanyang: According to the opinions of the elders, which female disciple should be chosen to marry into the Qingmu Sect?

Duan Hongdao pondered for a moment and said, "Master, I think Miss Luo Lingshan is the most suitable.

Luo Nanyang frowned and said, "Can she take on this important task?

Duan Hongdao hurriedly said, "Master, if this marriage can be accomplished, it will be of great benefit to our Lingxiao Sect. The eldest lady is extremely intelligent and will definitely be able to gain a firm foothold in the Qingmu Sect and gain more benefits for our Lingxiao Sect."

Luo Nanyang remained silent, as if weighing the pros and cons.

At this time, an elder said: "Master, the eldest lady is very understanding and will surely put the interests of the sect first."

Luo Nanyang sighed deeply and said, "Forget it, I'll discuss this matter with Lingshan again."

The elders said in unison: "Everything is up to the Sect Master to decide."

Luo Nanyang said: "Also, be sure to monitor every move of the Sun Moon Palace and the Regent Palace."

Duan Hongdao bowed and replied, "Master, rest assured. I have arranged for my disciples to keep a close eye on the situation. If there is any sign of trouble, please report it immediately."

Luo Nanyang nodded slightly and said solemnly: "Neither of these two forces should be underestimated. Any changes may affect the future direction of our Lingxiao Sect."

The elders said in unison, "We understand. We must proceed with caution."

Luo Nanyang waved his hand and said, "Everyone go down and be prepared to respond at any time."

After everyone saluted, they all left.

Someone, go to the back mountain and bring Luo Lingshan to me.

After receiving the order, a disciple hurried to the back mountain.

Soon, Luo Lingshan was brought before Luo Nanyang. She was slender and pretty, but with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Luo Nanyang looked at his daughter, wanting to speak but hesitant. Luo Lingshan asked, "Father, why did you call me here in such a hurry?"

Luo Nanyang sighed lightly and said, "Lingshan, I have an important matter to discuss with you."

Luo Lingshan frowned slightly and said, "Father, please feel free to speak."

Luo Nanyang then slowly told the story of the marriage.

Luo Nanyang looked solemn as he looked at Luo Lingshan in front of him and slowly said, "Luo Lingshan."

Luo Lingshan was filled with confusion at this moment, wondering why she was urgently recalled from the back mountain. Hearing her father's call, she looked up at Luo Nanyang, her eyes filled with questions.

Luo Nanyang took a deep breath and continued, "We called you back from the back mountain this time because our sect intends to arrange a marriage between you and the Young Master of the Qingmu Sect, Li Fengjue.

Luo Lingshan's eyes were red, tears welling up in her eyes. She shouted at Luo Nanyang, "Father, you asked me to marry into the Qingmu Sect. I clearly have Nangong Han in my heart, but you asked me to marry!"

Luo Nanyang's face turned pale, his eyes wide open, and he shouted angrily: "If it weren't for you, a fool, would my Lingxiao Sect be able to dominate the Sun and Moon Palace?

Luo Nanyang glared at Luo Lingshan and shouted, "Luo Lingshan is a few years older than Xing Xuanli. Xing Xuanli now sits on the position of Palace Master of Sun Moon Palace and helps (Nangong Han) with many military strategies. Do you think (Nangong Han) will give up a woman like Xing Xuanli and choose a fool like you?"

Luo Lingshan's face turned pale in an instant, her lips trembling as she tried to refute: "Father, that's not the case. How can you measure feelings in this way?"

Luo Nanyang sneered: "Humph, you are so naive! Xing Xuanli is powerful and intelligent. She can give Nangong Han advice at critical moments and help him achieve great things. And you? Besides acting recklessly, what else can you do?"

Tears welled up in Luo Lingshan's eyes, and she cried, "Father, my feelings for Nangong Han are sincere. You can't deny me just because of these external things."

Luo Nanyang's face was full of disdain: "Sincerity? In this cruel world, how much is sincerity worth? Nangong Han is an ambitious man. What he needs is a partner who can lend him a hand, not a useless woman like you."

Luo Lingshan cried out in despair, "Father, why do you belittle me like this? Am I so despicable in your eyes?"

Luo Nanyang frowned and said, "The facts are before you. Think about it carefully. Nangong Han will not choose you. You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible."

Luo Lingshan bit her lips, her body trembling slightly, her heart filled with pain and unwillingness.

Luo Lingshan returned to the courtyard in a daze, her thoughts involuntarily drifting back to the scene of the decisive battle with Xing Xuanli in Lingwu Square.

At that time, Nangong Han's indifference was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart. "Luo Lingshan, the only person I've loved from beginning to end is Li'er. You're so self-righteous, you idiot." Nangong Han's cold and ruthless words seemed to still echo in her ears, every word hammering at her soul like a heavy hammer.

Luo Lingshan closed her eyes in pain, tears streaming down her cheeks. She couldn't understand why she had given her heart and soul to someone so heartlessly.

At this moment, Xing Xuanli's mocking voice rang in her ears: "Luo Lingshan, are all of you book-traversers as foolish as you? And you still want a strategy?"

Luo Lingshan suddenly opened her eyes and looked around angrily, as if Xing Xuanli was standing right in front of her, mocking her. "No, that's not the case!" she cried hysterically.

However, all she heard was the empty courtyard and her own voice. Luo Lingshan slumped to the ground, her heart filled with despair and regret. She recalled all her efforts to capture Nangong Han, and now it all seemed like a joke.

"Am I really that stupid?" Luo Lingshan murmured to herself, "But my feelings for him are real."

The wind blew gently, ruffling her hair, but it couldn't blow away the pain and confusion in her heart. Luo Lingshan didn't know what to do in the future. She felt as if she had fallen into an endless dark abyss and could not find a way out.
