Ye Man finally understood, it was as if this Master Ren wanted to kill Qin Xuan and shift the blame to Yan Yuan.
"Sir's plan lasted only a few seconds."
Not only would they be able to kill Qin Xuan, they would also be able to allow the Nanling to start a war and send troops in the name of taking revenge for King Duanren.
When war and strife erupted in this world, then his role would come to fruition.
Just by thinking about it, Ye Man could not hold it in anymore, and immediately said to Ren Dao Yuan: "Don't worry, Master Prime Minister, leave this matter to me."
Ren Dao Yuan laughed, looked at Ye Man with satisfaction and said: "Senior Wu, if you succeed in handling this matter, the Emperor and I will not mistreat you."
"Thank you, sir."
After Ren Dao Yuan left, Ye Man's fawning smile immediately disappeared, and his killing intent instantly condensed onto his face.
He raised his head to look at his subordinate and said coldly: "You go find the people from night gate, spend a lot of money on the top ten rankers, and find a chance to kill that young man first. I don't care what methods you use, I must kill him.
Ye Man stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then said: "As for Qin Xuan, I'll think of a way."
It would not be a problem to let Qin Xuan die in the hands of those assassins, but if he wanted to pretend to die in the hands of Yan Yuan, it would take a lot of effort.
The most important thing was to kill that young man.
"Yes."
The subordinate accepted the order, then turned around and left.
The night gate was a famous killer organization in the martial world, the top 10 assassins in the rankings, all of them were experts that could fight one against one, if all the experts from the night gate were to go out, the people who were killed would have no chance of escaping.
However, to be able to harm night gate, especially the top ten assassins, it was impossible for them to not have a certain amount of wealth.
In order to kill Liu Ruo Qing this time, Ye Man had clearly expended a lot of effort. He definitely wouldn't allow something that he had meticulously crafted to end up bad in the hands of a young man.
Qin Xuan's internal injuries were severe, and he had to recuperate in Huiyang City for an entire half a month before he could somewhat improve.
"Tomorrow we will set out for the Nanling. For now, this king will not let Qin Mu Huai have any leads."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Qin Xuan got off the bed, put on his clothes, thought for a bit, then went next door.
"Brother Yan."
He called out from outside, and very quickly, Yan Yuan came over to open the door. He still had that cold and cheerless aura, but when Qin Xuan looked at his face, he could still find a trace of urgency in his eyes.
"Brother Qin, what's the matter?"
"We will set off for Nanling tomorrow. Does Brother Yan really plan to go back with me?"
Qin Xuan asked as he stepped into Yan Yuan's room.
Yan Yuan did not speak further, and only nodded his head without hesitation, "Brother Qin, you will not tell me where my wife is. I will not force you, but it will not stop me from finding her."
Hearing that, Qin Xuan's footsteps paused for a bit, and then only laughed softly, agreeing with Yan Yuan's words.
He turned his head and sat down on the chair in his room, raising his head to look at Yan Yuan who was standing, he thought for a moment, but could not help but ask: "Brother Yan, why are you so sure that Crown Princess Jing is still alive?"
Qin Xuan's words made Yan Yuan frown, he tried his best to suppress the bitterness in his heart, and then, he only said two words: "Use your heart."
Mind?
Qin Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked at him. He could not really understand what Yan Yuan meant.
Yan Yuan did not explain anything to him either. This was his personal relationship with Qing Er, he did not need anyone else to get involved.
Qin Xuan did not pursue the matter any further. Thinking of Liu Ruo Qing's bloodless face and the sorrow and heartache that faintly flowed out of her eyes when she looked at Yan Yuan, Qin Xuan suddenly felt a little panicked in her heart.
Perhaps it was out of curiosity, or perhaps it was for some other reason, but Qin Xuan looked at Yan Yuan and said: "Is Crown Princess Jing really so good that Brother Yan will never forget it?"
Perhaps it was because he had thought of Liu Ruo Qing, but in an instant, Yan Yuan's originally cold expression became much gentler.
He did not look at Qin Xuan, but instead cast his gaze outside the window. It was as if he was thinking about the girl that was hiding in his heart, thinking about every single one of her expressions and smiles, thinking about everything that happened between him and her …
Then, seeing his gentle smile, the sharpness in his eyes seemed to have been replaced by this gentleness and softness. "She's not that good."
Yes, she wasn't that good, but he just loved her so much he couldn't pull himself out of it.
In this life, he had used all of his heart to love her. No matter if she was good or bad, in the end, there was no one who could replace her.
Qin Xuan was startled by his answer, but looking at the extremely loving and gentle look that occasionally appeared on Yan Yuan's face, he knew, for a person like Yan Yuan to reveal such an expression, it must be Liu Ruo Qing.
"Brother Yan, don't you think that one day, you might meet a woman who is even better than Liu Ruo Qing?"
Why did he have to be so humble, obsessing over a person who had already "died"?
In the room, there was a long period of silence, Yan Yuan's eyes were dim without any light.
No matter how good others were, it wasn't her. No matter how bad she was, it couldn't be replaced by others.
After a long while, he smiled gently and suddenly raised his head to look at Qin Xuan. There was a trace of sadness in his eyes.
"After Liu Ruo Qing, there will be no more Crown Princess Jing."
These words were uttered very softly, every word was extremely light, and the words that came out of his mouth so casually caused Qin Xuan's heart to tremble violently.
After Liu Ruo Qing, there were no more Crown Princess Jing s …
He glanced at Yan Yuan and bit his lower lip, not saying a word. His gaze moved behind Yan Yuan and landed on the figure standing outside the door.
She should have heard it.
As for whether she was willing to see Yan Yuan or not, it was not his business.
Liu Ruo Qing never thought that she would hear such a conversation when she was passing by Yan Yuan's room.
After Liu Ruo Qing, there were no more Crown Princess Jing s …
She bit her lower lip, trying not to make a sound, but she could not move.
She had even raised her hand several times to push open the door and tell her that she was here, but she had mustered her courage when she thought of the incurable illness in her body.
A few days ago, she happened to remember the cause of her illness.
That day, she had transmigrated back to the modern era, and she had arrived at the research center for rare metals.
At that time, there were a lot of protection signs around her seat. She thought about it carefully and decided that it was probably used to store extremely radioactive rare metals. Researchers at that research center had to wear protective gear to enter.
She thought that her illness was probably caused by the radiation of the rare metals.
She understood what that would mean. Even in modern times, with advanced bone marrow transplant surgery, one would have to be lucky enough to meet a match in the bone marrow, not to mention the ancient era where medical technology lagged far behind.
