A red mark appeared on Ye Qing's neck, and blood gushed out. Ye Qing glanced at Zhong Tian, ​​then looked at the world with a lingering affection, before collapsing to the ground, her body limp.

Zhong Tian looked at Ye Qing! He was dead just like that!

This happened so fast that Nakata was caught off guard!

Zhongtian ran to Ye Qing and covered Ye Qing's neck with his hand. There was so much blood that it had stained Zhongtian's robes red.

Even as she struggled to cover her wound, Ye Qing's body gradually grew cold and stiff.

Zhong Tian's eyes were red! She and Ye Qing came from the same place. Even though Ye Qing was aloof, the two got along well. Their shared culture gave them a natural affinity, and she understood her!

But now she's dead, so hastily!

She looked up at Prime Minister Jiang and questioned, "Even if Ye Qing wanted to kill you, shouldn't you have interrogated her first? Why did you just kill her so hastily?"

Prime Minister Jiang sneered: "Those who kill me do so either out of revenge or for personal gain. If I don't eliminate them completely, am I supposed to wait for them to kill me again? Lord Zhong, by questioning me like this, you have abdicated your duty as a subordinate!"

Zhong Tian closed her eyes to hide the tears welling up in them. It was her first time meeting Prime Minister Jiang, and she had witnessed his decisiveness and ruthlessness. He would not care about human life!

Therefore, Zhongtian turned to look at His Majesty with grief and indignation, and asked, "Your Majesty, Ye Qing is also a court official. Prime Minister Jiang has rashly killed a court official, which is disrespectful to Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to do justice for Ye Qing!"

His Majesty glanced at Ye Qing lying on the ground, then looked at Prime Minister Jiang.

"Ye Qing intended to kill Prime Minister Jiang. Prime Minister Jiang is the cornerstone of the nation, and his crime is unforgivable! Now that he is dead, Zhongqing, go and bury him yourself."

Zhongtian lowered his head in disappointment and turned away with a sense of grief and indignation.

Zhongtian held Ye Qing's body in her arms, and it felt incredibly light; Ye Qing was so thin and frail!

She was different from her. Zhongtian was a soul transmigrated, while Ye Qing was a body transmigrated. She came into this world all alone.

Ye Qing's hair was disheveled and fell behind her, revealing her eyes. Zhong Tian was somewhat surprised to find that Ye Qing must be very young, probably still in college in modern times.

Who knew what deep-seated hatred he had for Prime Minister Jiang! He actually risked his life to assassinate her.

Zhongtian's eyes were extremely sore.

Xia Muning received the news and rushed over. Seeing the bloodstains on Zhong Tian's body, she was somewhat alarmed and called out to Zhong Tian again and again, "My wife, my wife."

Zhongtian was lost in her own fantasies. Today, she had witnessed Ye Qing's death. She couldn't protect her friend, so what about the future? Could she protect her husband? Could she protect the people she wanted to protect?

Xia Muning called out to Zhong Tian repeatedly until she woke up. Zhong Tian looked up at Xia Muning and said softly, "Muning, come with me to bury Ye Qing."

"it is good."

This is a low, small grave. In winter, it will be covered with snow, and in spring, it will be full of beautiful little flowers. One day, Nakata will bring the culprit to give this lonely soul from another world an explanation.

Ye Qing died quietly, without even causing any discussion, but it caught the attention of General Yue. General Yue rushed over to protect the emperor and, upon hearing about the crossbow that could fire seven times in a row, his eyes lit up!

General Yue knew very well how powerful this would be on the battlefield, and he excitedly went to ask Prime Minister Jiang who had created it.

Prime Minister Jiang pointed at Zhong Tian's departing figure and said coldly, "The dead body in Zhong Tian's arms was made by someone else. Go ask him!"

General Yue's temper was so fiery that he almost got into a fight with Prime Minister Jiang. Prime Minister Jiang and General Yue were a civil official and a military general, respectively, and their political views differed, so they had never gotten along!

Zhongtian listened with a mix of sadness and helplessness as the matter gradually subsided.

One night, a man knocked on Zhongtian's door, and Xia Muning greeted him.

He was an extremely handsome man. Xia Muning looked him over carefully. With her experience, even though the man in front of her tried his best to hide it, she could still see the slightly frivolous look in his eyes.

This is a man from a less than privileged background!

She looked around the Zhong residence and said to Xia Muning bluntly, "I am Ye Qing's widow, and I'm here to see Madam Zhong!"

Xia Muning immediately brought the man to Zhong Tian.

Zhongtian was taking stock of her assets. Shunning Express had brought her a generous reward, and her uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

She felt uneasy, as if a storm was brewing, and asked when she saw the man Xia Muning had brought in.

"Who are you? What is your relationship with Ye Qing? Why have you come to see me?"

The man brushed the stray hairs from his forehead and said in a sorrowful tone, "Ye Niang and I are husband and wife; we are already married!"

"They got married?!"

The man hesitated, seemingly finding it difficult to speak: "I... I come from a humble background, but... Ye Niang doesn't mind. Ye Niang doesn't seem to have any elders either, so we didn't tell anyone else and got married under the witness of heaven and earth."

"I came to find you because Ye Qing left something for you."

What Ye Qing left for Zhong Tian was very simple: a breakdown diagram of a crossbow.

Ye Qing's hatred for Prime Minister Jiang was long-standing. She studied this matter day and night and finally came to the initial prototype. She seemed to know that this assassination attempt on her might be a one-way trip, so she made the arrangements for this matter a long time ago.

With a hint of pity in his eyes, Nakata asked, "I still don't know your name?"

"Duckweed".

Indeed, he was like a drifting duckweed, with no fixed abode.

"Ye Qing is dead. What are you going to do now?"

"I don't know." Her expression was extremely sorrowful, and large tears fell from her eyes: "With Ye Niang dead, I don't know what to do?"

Zhongtian glanced at her and said softly, "You can stay in my residence for now. I will take good care of you for Ye Qing, so don't worry!"

Dan Fuping nodded hesitantly, but finally agreed.

Xia Muning instructed Shishu to take good care of Shan Fuping. Shishu glanced at Shan Fuping and understood immediately.

After Shan Fuping left, Xia Muning stood beside Zhong Tian and asked softly, "My lady, do you believe him?"

“Look, he even carefully planned the way he stroked his hair and the angle of his crying. There’s not a trace of sincerity in him. When Ye Qing died, he didn’t even go to pay his respects or investigate her. There are too many suspicious things about her.”

"Okay." Xia Muning nodded.

Surprisingly, what he said was true; he actually married Ye Qing.

However, the surveillance on Shan Fuping was not relaxed. Every day when Shi Shu delivered meals, she could see Shan Fuping holding Ye Qing's portrait and secretly shedding tears.

Just as Nakata was wondering if he was judging others by his own petty standards!

One evening, a monk from Wudao Temple rushed over with a letter from Le Xingxi, the ink still wet on it.

There are only two words on it!

"Run away!"
