Huangfu Shenglin was emotionless and he refused to see First Prince’s vicious look. Several Qi Artists intended to fight against him, but all of them were killed by people who worked for Huangfu Shenglin, and there only left a pool of blood.

“You invited the greatest Qi Artist of Ouyang family—Ouyang Tian?

First Prince Huangfu Changyu cried in an incredible voice and stared at his younger brother reluctantly.

Huangfu Shenglin nodded and said, “First Prince, Your Highness, one shouldn’t be too pretentious, and shouldn’t do whatever he wants, even though you’re First Prince…”

Queen Liu’s face became pale and she stabbed her nail wraps deeply at her palm. Queen Liu had never thought that she and Liu’s family would fail so badly.

“Eleventh Prince, did you collude with Hua Qiyue? You did this so that we thought that Hua Qiyue didn’t stand up for you and we wouldn’t worry about anything?” Queen Liu asked in a serious voice.

Huangfu Shenglin looked at this woman who almost went insane, saying, “Your Highness, if I didn’t do it, you Liu’s family wouldn’t send someone to Red-crowned Crane Mountain to kill Hua Qiyue. Actually, we didn’t have many chances to win because two hundred of Qi Artists of Liu’s family were there too, and I was also afraid to lose my life!”

Hearing this, Queen Liu laughed coldly and said, “I misjudged you. Haha… Consort Mei, you have a good son!”

“Sister, no matter whose son he is, he must be loyal to the Emperor. If you’re unable to be loyal, you’ll have to die,” a woman said in a cold voice.

By the gate of the palace, a woman in a gorgeous robe was slowly walking into the palace. This woman turned out to be Consort Mei who was followed by two Qi Artists and two maidservants.

Consort Mei was very calm and walked to Changlong Emperor quickly, saying, “Your Majesty, are you okay?”

Changlong Emperor shook his head and his eyes gleamed with light because he saw that Consort Mei was more calm and attractive, compared with the beautiful girl in a coma on the ground.

“Someone, send First Prince and his accomplices to Celestial Prison, choose a proper date to—kill them!”

Changlong Emperor made the order indifferently. Hearing this, both First Prince and Queen Liu screamed and cried, begging the Emperor in a grieved voice.

However, Changlong Emperor had already been disappointed at them. First Prince had always been arrogant and high-handed. Although Changlong Emperor had warned him many times, First Prince was fickle and refused to listen to him.

Therefore, the one that Changlong Emperor highly regarded was still Huangfu Shenglin.

“Your Majesty and Father… Your Majesty and Father… please don’t kill me! I’m your child!” First Prince said and suddenly cried, crawling from the cane chair to the front of the Emperor and hugging the Emperor’s feet.

“Get away!” Changlong Emperor heavily kicked away First Prince and said with a cold face, “I’ve given you a chance, but you didn’t take it!”

The Queen, who was used to be dignified and steady, kneeling in front of the Emperor and begging him, “Your Majesty, I’m begging you to let go of Yu’er and leave him alive… I made him do this, it was me…”

“Yes, queen mother made me usurp the throne. Your Majesty and Father… you should blame queen mother, you should blame queen mother…” First Prince said and was kicked away. His lips were injured with blood, which looked a little horrible.

Seeing this, Consort Mei shook her head and sighed slightly, thinking, “The Queen was so partial towards Huangfu Changyu, but her son didn’t understand her…”

“Take them away!”

Changlong Emperor snorted. The Emperor was ruthless and he would no longer be soft-hearted once he found that someone intended to do harm to him.

He would think about it whether he should kill them or not.

Next day, Changlong Emperor declared that he would bestow one hundred thousand taels of golds and two cities on Prince Nan and Hua Qiyue because they helped Eleventh Prince eliminate the traitors. As for Eleventh Prince, he would be throned as First Prince. Every member in Liu’s family, Baili’s family, and Xia’s family would be killed because these families were traitors and they had killed Palace Guards and royal Qi Artists, which was harmful to the court! Queen Liu would be killed because she lacked the morality of mother and made First Prince usurp the throne! As for First Prince, who was selfish, cruel and arrogant, lacked morality of First Prince, and he would be demoted to ordinary people and never enter capital for the rest of his life!

Everyone in Hua’s Mansion was relieved after they knew this declaration. They thought that what Hua Qiyue had done shocked the world and made all the Qi Artists envy her, so, they also thought that she had been framed and would never succeed again. But unexpectedly, the thing changed from bad to good, and everyone was happy about it!

In Prince Nan’s mansion.

Hua Qiyue was on the third floor of the high tower and looked at Tianci who gathered anima energy on his palm. Tianci’s action was so fluent and he was no longer a beginner in Qi Art.

Tianci punched, only to see the spirit light fell on the wall of the tower, and then disappeared. Hua Qiyue knew that the wall was very special which was used to inhale anima energy and keep the anima energy inside the tower.

Therefore, they could practice here as long as they wanted and they weren’t afraid to disturb others.

After boxing, Tianci happily ran to Hua Qiyue and intimately rubbed himself on Hua Qiyue’s arms, saying, “Mom, long time no see, how about go back to Hua’s Mansion today? I want to have a good meal!”

Yun Shimo, who stood aside, immediately pulled a long face. Indeed, Tianci didn’t need to eat anything here because he was fed with anima energy. However, human beings had always lived on rice, how could they change this habit?

Actually, he wanted Hua Qiyue to live in Prince Nan’s mansion permanently, but his plan didn’t seem to work…

“Fine, let’s go home and visit your grandmother,” Hua Qiyue said and smiled tenderly, holding Tianci’s hand and going downstairs.

Yun Shimo looked like a thundercloud and followed them without saying anything. When they arrived on the second floor, they saw that Madam Yun was helping an emaciated man go upstairs.

This man was about forty or fifty and took half after Yun Shimo in appearance. Hua Qiyue paused, only to see that the corpse above the blue pool disappeared, and this man…

“Qiyue, this is my father,” Yun Shimo said calmly.

Yun Xuan looked at the woman in front of him who actually was Hua Qiyue, and Madam Yun had mentioned her to Yun Xuan before. This woman was in white and looked comely and attractive, and ordinary girls couldn’t equal her especially in the quality of dignity.

Yun Xuan was very satisfied with her and said, “Well, nice, nice.”

“It’s my honor to meet Lord Yun,” Hua Qiyue greeted politely. Yun Xuan still looked a little weak, but he started to breathe. After chatting with them, Yun Shimo sent Hua Qiyue and Tianci downstairs.

Hua Qiyue was very shocked because she didn’t expect that Yun Shimo could turn a corpse and a soul to a real man. What an awesome pill!

But Hua Qiyue had no idea that Yun Shimo’s entire body became black after he had gone through thunder calamity. Afterward, in order to meet Hua Qiyue, he took the desquamation pill which was the fourth pill in the world, and he went to visit her after he had endured the pain for one hour.

Yun Shimo sent her to the gate of the mansion and said, “Come here tomorrow.”

Hua Qiyue rolled her eyes at him who still looked very calm as if everything were natural to him, saying, “I’m busy!”

“What are you busy for?” Yun Shimo said and frowned unhappily.

“I’ll accompany my grandmother,” Hua Qiyue said coldly and took Tianci to the carriage.

Yun Shimo was still very calm, but he raised his voice greatly, saying, “Come here tomorrow. Mom said that she would ask a master to choose a perfect day for us to get married.”

Hearing this, Hua Qiyue didn’t stand steady and almost fell on the ground.

What?

Got married?

She was Hua Qiyue, and she didn’t make a decision, who else dared to decide it for her?

Hua Qiyue angrily glared at him and said, “Yun Shimo, I don’t want to get married now, you should wait until I want to do it!”

Yun Shimo twitched his mouth, and he thought, “Hua Qiyue left no face to me, it seems that I have to take some special measures.”

Tianci blinked his eyes at Yun Shimo and made a mischievous smile, saying, “Daddy, if you intend to marry my mom, you have to send me, the childe, a great present!”

Yun Shimo was speechless and thought, “When did Tianci learn how to be a moneygrubber?”

But from Hua Qiyue’s attitude, Yun Shimo had no idea when she would be willing to marry him. There was no time to wait for this beautiful woman, besides, it would be humiliating if he still didn’t marry Hua Qiyue!

“However… the baby that you’re pregnant with… cannot wait!”

Yun Shimo said nervously as if he was very worried. While Hua Qiyue, who had gotten on the carriage, suddenly scolded him furiously, “Yun Shimo, if you talk rubbish one more time, I’ll pull down your Prince Nan’s mansion!”

“Ah… my wife, don’t be angry, it’ll be terrible if our baby is frightened!”

Yun Shimo screamed mischievously, which made Hua Qiyue so angry as to spit blood. Suddenly, a murderous look appeared in Hua Qiyue’s eyes, luckily, the coachman noticed her murderous look and thought, “That’s terrible, if the Princess-to-be and His Highness fight in front of the gate of the mansion, it’ll be embarrassing.” Therefore, he whipped the horse heavily, and the horse galloped crazily…

Hua Qiyue’s angry roar was getting far away, and Yun Shimo was satisfied and nodded. It seemed that this worked well since just in half a day, everyone would say that Hua Qiyue and he had already had a wedding…

Even the hare on his shoulder and Bingyi shook their heads speechlessly and they thought that the most mischievous prince might be Yun Shimo.

It was said that the rumors went very fast. As soon as Hua Qiyue took Tianci back to the mansion, Old Madame Hua and others were waiting for her in front of the mansion. When Old Madame saw her granddaughter, her eyes were filled with tears and she tightly held Hua Qiyue’s hands.

“Qiyue, it’ll be fine since you come back safely,” Old Madame Hua said and she seemed to be ten years older after this misfortune.

Hua Qiyue smiled and said at once, “Grandmother, I’m fine, don’t worry.”

Hua Liting also became tearful. For him, this daughter always brought him surprises and peaceful things never happened to her. He was getting old now and was unable to fight for the country any more.

Perhaps, he had to depend on his daughters. In Changjing and even on Tianyuan Continent, female Qi Artists were very popular.

“Right, Qiyue, I’ve heard that… you’ve been pregnant with Prince Nan’s baby, is that true?” Old Madame Hua asked in a low voice.

Hua Qiyue’s face became serious and she said, “Grandmother, that’s nonsense that Yun Shimo talked about!”

Old Madame shook her head, and she walked to the courtyard and said, “Qiyue, you’re not young. Prince Nan is handsome and talented, so, he deserves you, why not marry him? Besides, if such a rumor goes to the public, it will ruin a girl’s reputation.”

“Right, right! Mom, I want to live in Daddy’s high tower, too. It’s very comfortable!” The little guy cried excitedly and he carelessly became Yun Shimo’s “accomplice”.

“You bad boy, what are you talking about? Grandmother, don’t believe the rumor, it never happened!” Hua Qiyue cried unhappily.

“Qiyue, listen to us, you should marry Prince Nan as soon as possible. After all, the rumor is dreadful…” Hua Liting also said. Hua Qiyue twitched her mouth and thought, “Do the whole family want her to get married?” But she refused and changed the topic.

“The Emperor sent me a city, grandmother and dad, what do you think I should do with it?”

Old Madame laughed very happily. After all, Hua Qiyue owned a city, which meant that she was the owner of a city. It was a happy ending since she became an official. Was there a female owner of a city in Changjing Kingdom in history? But Hua Qiyue made it.
