The eldest daughter's scheming, the crown prince's exclusive favor to the venomous concubi

Hua Xiangrong pinched her cheek and laughed, "Silly girl, what's right or wrong? Just do what you want to do, that's right. There's no measure of right or wrong, only what you want is right."

Jian Yue was slightly taken aback: "Really? Whatever you want is right?"

Hua Xiangrong nodded: "Yes, instead of worrying so much, we should think about how to maximize our own interests. Murong Chuan is currently controlled by Gu worms and will make a move against you sooner or later."

He's not making a move right now only because of the armored soldiers, so I brought this.

As she spoke, Hua Xiangrong took something out of her bosom, wrapped in black cloth.

Jian Yue took it and opened it, her eyes changing as she said, "Crimson Coral?"

Hua Xiangrong said, "Yes, that coward Bai Jianan can't do anything right, and now he's being controlled by a woman. It's infuriating! He asked me to give you this blood-red coral, and his intentions are self-evident."

Jian Yue twitched her hand slightly, clutching the blood-red coral in her hand. Hua Xiangrong continued, but her tone was much colder: "So, people are all the same. For their own benefit, they will always make the worst-case scenario plan."

Jian Yue didn't speak, but stared intently at the blood-red coral in her hand. After a long time, she reached into her robes and took out the jade seal.

Hua Xiangrong blinked and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"If I'm not mistaken, she also has one of the things the armored soldier gave me."

As she spoke, she placed the jade seal on one of the gaps in the blood-red coral, and miraculously, they fit together. Hua Xiangrong's eyes lit up, and she said, "Is this part of this?"

Jian Yue nodded, her curiosity growing. She picked up the crimson coral and examined it closely, discovering a notch on the other side about the size of a jade seal. She looked at Jian Yue and asked, "Then who is the holder of the other seal you mentioned?"

Jian Yue raised her eyes and said, "My twin sister, Qiu Lingyu."

"You're saying the Qiu family's property was confiscated by the Crown Prince?"

"Yes, and it was your twin sister who did it. I never expected her to be so quick."

Yin San said, looking at Qiu Lingyu with a smile, "Tell me, what is your purpose in coming here? If you really want to annex Yue Kingdom, I think there's no need for all that trouble. Why not just wait for them to fight amongst themselves and weaken each other, and then we can reap the benefits?"

Qiu Lingyu frowned: "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Wait here, I'm going to the Crown Prince's residence."

As Qiu Lingyu spoke, she got up and left, but when she opened the door, she was stopped by someone.

Zang Feng smiled and said to Qiu Lingyu, "Miss Qiu, please forgive me. The young master said that it is not appropriate for you to move around freely at your current status. The commotion at the Qiu residence has caused quite a stir, and Miss Caiyue in the Crown Prince's residence has also become well-known. If you go out, it may disrupt the order of the capital. Please stay in the residence for the time being and do not go anywhere."

Upon hearing this, Yin San stepped forward and coldly said, "What right do you have to stop my young lady? Get out of my way!"

Zang Feng laughed: "Move aside? Sorry, this is the Princess's residence, the young master is in charge."

"presumptuous."

As Yin San spoke, the poisoned needle in his hand flew out. He twirled the Hidden Edge Sword and knocked the poisoned needle away, sneering, "The Poison Master Yin San is nothing but a name without substance."

"You're looking for death..."

"Yin San".

Yin San was furious and was about to attack again, but Qiu Lingyu stopped him.

Looking at Zang Feng, Qiu Lingyu said, "Bai Jianan did this on purpose, didn't she? Was she afraid I would disrupt her plans?"

Zang Feng remained noncommittal, only smiling and saying, "Miss, you are overthinking it. It's just that it's really not suitable for you to move around right now. I hope you will cooperate. The young master said that if you don't cooperate, that's fine too, but you will have to bear the consequences yourself."

After Zang Feng finished speaking, he turned and left. Qiu Lingyu stood at the door for a while and said to Yin San, "I'll go first. You wait here."

Yin San frowned: "Are you really going?"

Qiu Lingyu laughed: "Who I want to see is beyond his control. As for the consequences, they are simply things he can't handle. Don't you know my capabilities?"

After saying that, Qiu Lingyu left. However, less than a quarter of an hour after she left, the door was kicked open. Yin San turned around and looked at her with a gloomy expression. He saw Heli Hong staring at him with icy eyes and saying, "Take her down."

Yin San's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "What are you going to do? Heli Hong, don't forget the cooperation between Miao Di and my Mobei."

Heli Hong sneered: "Forgot? How could I forget? I'm afraid it's you people from the Northern Desert who have forgotten. I haven't even settled accounts with you for the wolf incident yet, and you actually colluded with people from the Crown Prince's residence to severely injure me."

Don't think that just because Qiu Lingyu is gone, I can't do anything to you. I'll kill you first, then go and seek revenge on her."

As he spoke, Heli Hong waved his hand, and a large number of assassins behind him rushed forward, instantly surrounding Yin San. A battle was about to break out.

After walking for a while, Qiu Lingyu noticed someone following her. She smiled, quickened her pace, and led the person following her around several times before frowning.

Not only did she not shake off the person who was following her, but the distance he maintained while following her remained unchanged.

You should know that she changed her speed three times along this route, and he not only kept up with her, but the distance between them didn't change either.

Without warning, her expression darkened, and she turned to look behind her, saying, "Friend, what is the reason for following us for so long?"

Zang Feng pouted and emerged from the shadows. Qiu Lingyu was taken aback, then saw Zang Feng laugh and say, "What a coincidence! Don't worry, I wasn't following you. We're going the same way."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Lingyu sneered, "I've circled around here three times already. You actually enjoy circling around here just like me?"

Zang Feng smiled and said, "Yes, we were originally going to the Crown Prince's residence, but we got so captivated by the scenery here that we ended up here without really thinking about it. By the way, where are you going? Are we going the same way?"

The last word, Zang Feng's tone suddenly rose and took several turns, sounding harsh to the ear.

Qiu Lingyu stared at Cang Feng in silence for a long while before saying, "What if I say it's not on my way? What will you do then?"

"How about we go together? If it's not on my way, I'll just go my own way. You can take your time and we'll meet again sometime."

As Zang Feng spoke, he pushed off with his feet and leaped into the air, disappearing from Qiu Lingyu's sight in an instant. Qiu Lingyu squinted at the direction he disappeared for a long time, then thought about what Zang Feng had said earlier, and her gaze suddenly changed.

There were many things to do that day, and with the Crown Prince's wedding the next day, Jian Yue didn't return to her room until midnight. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Qiu Lingyu, smiled slightly, and said, "I still have one more person to give you, and you will still wait silently."

Qiu Lingyu pursed her lips, frowned as she looked at Jian Yue, and after a long while, after Jian Yue walked to the table and sat down, she said, "Do you really want to compete with me?"

Jian Yue raised an eyebrow: "Compete? When have I ever competed?"

"If you're not going to fight, then why did you let Bai Jianan capture my people?"

Qiu Lingyu looked at Jian Yue, disappointment in her eyes, and said, "I thought you were different from me, but now I realize that you are just as greedy."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yue suddenly smiled and said, "What kind of person do you think I am? Someone blinded by greed? Do you know why I would be blinded by greed? It's because your father took you away and left me behind, which led to everything that followed, didn't it?"

Qiu Lingyu was taken aback by his words: "Are you taking revenge on us?"

"No, you and I have nothing to do with each other, and everything I did was what I wanted to do, and it has nothing to do with you. As for what you said about Bai Jianan capturing your people, please don't make things up if you don't have any evidence. You are currently living in his mansion. If he captured you and it is discovered that he is hiding people from the Northern Desert, wouldn't you be beheaded?"

Qiu Lingyu immediately retorted, "If it wasn't him, who else could have captured my people? We've already cooperated with Miao Di, it couldn't have been Heli Hong who did it."

Jian Yue smiled and said, "Some people say you are better than me, but I find that you are even more naive than me. Do you really think that Heli Hong cares about cooperating with you? All she wants is a face that resembles yours and mine."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Lingyu shook her head and said, "Of course I know she wants to use me to test Bai Jianan, but now, even if she thinks I'm useless, she would never attack me without a clear reason."

Jian Yue looked at Qiu Lingyu with disbelief in her eyes and said, "So you doubt me? Because I was chosen just like you? Do you think I want to compete with you for the right to use the armored soldiers?"

Qiu Lingyu lowered her eyes: "Isn't that right?"

Jian Yue laughed loudly: "You really flatter me too much. However, your idea is also correct. After all, we are both in a dilemma. From birth, this ending was destined. So, sister, are you trying to persuade me to give up?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Lingyu stared intently at Jian Yue and said, "Isn't it good? Isn't it good to live a comfortable life with the one you love?"

"Okay, of course it's good, but can I? Do you really think this situation can be resolved just by me withdrawing? My sister, I'm not saying you're naive, you're even more naive than me. Have you really never thought about why such a magical being as the armored soldier could separate us sisters?"

Qiu Lingyu was immediately startled. She had never thought about these questions. All she knew was that their existence was to fight for the right to use the armored soldiers and to fight for the right to possess the world.

Now, Jian Yue's words struck her like a heavy blow to the heart, and she hurriedly asked, "What exactly do you mean by that?"

Jian Yue shook her head and chuckled: "It's nothing. Some things are better left unsaid. If you don't have anything else to say, please leave. I'm afraid if you don't leave soon, you won't be able to leave at all."

Qiu Lingyu was puzzled and was about to ask again when she suddenly heard the sound of the door being kicked open. She turned around sharply and saw dozens of golden-armored guards rushing in and surrounding her and Jian Yue.

Jian Yue shrugged helplessly and said, "This time, we really can't leave."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Lingyu suddenly sneered: "Besides the Heavenly Wolf of the Northern Desert, no one else can keep me here."

As she spoke, she charged toward the swarming golden-armored guards, and in just a few rounds, she reached the courtyard.

Jian Yue followed, wanting to help her, but was stopped by another group of golden-armored guards. One of the guards, who had been with him for a long time, said to Jian Yue, "It would be better for you to stay here, Miss. The Crown Prince has ordered that this woman be captured alive."
