Regarding Ling Fengyang's death, Ji Yucang never had any doubts, nor did she deliberately find out whether there was an inside story.

Because when he died in the southern border three years ago, Ji Yucang was still in the cold land of Mobei, leading his soldiers to beat Mobei until Mobei cried for his father and mother. Moreover, the late emperor had not yet died at that time, so he did not care about the affairs of the court. .

Hearing what the eldest princess of Pingyao said at this time, he seemed to understand that if there was something else strange about Ling Fengyang's death, it was that the late emperor had made a plan when he was still alive. As for the specific arrangement of this plan, they might still need to go there. Check it out.

"If Ling Fengyang is really alive, will you still marry him?"

Princess Pingyao shook her head: "No."

Yan Qingchen was surprised, and Xie Tinglan was also surprised.

Isn’t it said that all women are infatuated?

Princess Pingyao noticed their looks, but she didn't want to explain too much and quickly stood up to leave.

She did want to send someone to investigate whether Ling Fengyang was still alive, but this did not mean that she would be threatened.

Three years is enough time to change a lot of things.

Regardless of whether what the emperor said was true or false, his wishful thinking was wrong.

There was a depressing silence in the study.

The eldest princess of Pingyao was gone. They didn't care much about whether Ling Fengyang was still alive. However, the emperor used this person to threaten the eldest princess with the purpose of killing the regent princess.

There is no doubt that the emperor's decision angered Ji Yucang. No man can tolerate a person who wants to kill his wife, even if this person is the emperor.

Xie Tinglan thought thoughtfully: "Why is the emperor so hostile to the princess?"

It's okay to be afraid of the regent. After all, the existence of the regent threatens the emperor's power.

But the princess is just a woman. No matter how arrogant and domineering she is, it is just disrespect on the surface. In the emperor's current situation, no normal person would have murderous intentions towards a woman.

If he had the power of life and death, he could have executed the Princess Regent on the charge of disrespect instead of borrowing the hands of the eldest princess. However, he did not have sole power of life and death at this time. Killing the Princess Regent would only anger the Prince Regent. , which will be even more detrimental to his future pro-government.

Based on Xie Tinglan's understanding of the emperor, although he was young, he was not an impulsive and brainless person. How could he make such an incredible decision?

Ji Yucang's expression was indifferent, and his eyes seemed to be condensed with a biting cold color. At this moment, he declared that his tolerance for the little emperor was over.

Thinking of Shen Ning who had been immersed in developing the antidote these days, Ji Yucang felt strange in his heart, got up and walked out.

The pharmacy smells strong.

Shen Ning stayed alone in the pharmacy for a long time and was busy. She accidentally raised her eyes and saw Ji Yucang standing outside the window. She was slightly startled and then raised her eyebrows: "What are you doing standing here?"

"look at you."

"What do I have to see?" Shen Ning packed up her things, turned around and cleaned her hands, then opened the door and walked out, "Is there something you want to tell me?"

Ji Yucang said: "Come for a walk with me."

Shen Ning didn't say anything and walked out with him in silence.

The two of them arrived at the back garden as if taking a leisurely stroll. The garden had a quiet scenery, rockery pavilions, and gurgling water.

Ji Yucang's voice sounded a little unreal: "I liked someone before."

Shen Ning was startled, not expecting him to say this, and subconsciously said: "Shen Ning?"

"No." Ji Yucang raised his feet and walked up the corridor, his profile showing a bit of loneliness, "The person I like is a man who is both civil and military, free-spirited, noble and dazzling."

Shen Ning's eyes were attentive, and a strange thought came to his mind uncontrollably, and he asked hesitantly: "Male or female?"

Ji Yucang's lips twitched and he turned to look at her subtly: "Of course she is a woman."

Shen Ning hummed.

"She is not from Yongguo."

Shen Ning hummed again subconsciously, then turned her head belatedly and looked at Ji Yucang's noble and cold face: "Aren't you from the Yong Kingdom?"

"No." Ji Yucang's voice was calm, but there was a hint of sadness, "She is already dead."

After saying this, Shen Ning stopped involuntarily, and the weird thoughts in her heart got even worse.

People from other countries, women, both civil and military, noble and dazzling?

She tilted her head to look at him, "Who are you talking about?"

"Her name is Yan Jiuli."

Shen Ning: "..." Her identity before rebirth.

Although she had some vague guesses after Ji Yucang said those words, she was still a little surprised when she heard the answer.

She had never met Ji Yucang.

Moreover, Nan Zhao and the Yong Kingdom did not actually have much contact. Those merchants traveling around various countries may expand their business territories in various countries, but as long as she can remember, Nan Zhao and the Yong Kingdom have always had a close relationship.

How could Ji Yucang fall in love with her?

Ji Yucang looked at her: "Do you know her?"

Shen Ning came back to her senses and said with a rare hesitation in her tone: "Do you think I should know you, or should I not know you?"

Ji Yucang raised his hand and rubbed her head: "Originally, we shouldn't have known each other. After all, a girl from the Shen family's boudoir has never left the house. How can she possibly know someone else's princess?"

Shen Ning smiled faintly: "But?"

"But you are proficient in medical skills and are both civil and military. These are not the abilities that a legitimate daughter of the Shen family should have, so if you say that you know Yan Jiuli, I will not be surprised."

Shen Ning was silent for a moment and asked lightly: "Why did you fall in love with her? Is it because we cherish each other, or because we met so late?"

"It's love at first sight, it's lingering dreams, it's the loss and sadness after knowing that she has a husband, it's the painful regret after learning about her death." Ji Yucang's expression was cold and hard, and his voice was filled with a bit of chilling air. "It's full of disgust and hatred that she can't wait to kill her enemy. It's the persistence that wants to bring her back to life at all costs."

Shen Ning was shocked and looked at him blankly.

Ji Yucang stopped and looked at her for a moment: "Are you surprised?"

"It's really surprising." Shen Ning nodded, "A man like you would actually fall in love with a woman at first sight."

Ji Yucang pursed her lips and was silent for a long time: "Things like feelings have never been reasonable."

"Perhaps you have made a mistake." Shen Ning said calmly, "The prince may just admire a woman. He admires her for being as brave as a man on the battlefield. He admires her as a woman who can also defend her family and country. She is no less capable than a man, but the prince still doesn’t quite understand her nature. If he did, he probably wouldn’t like her so much.”

"What is her nature?"

"She was superficial and stupid. She was gullible and harmed others and herself. She believed too much in men's sweet words and brought it upon herself. She ended up miserable."

Ji Yucang pursed her thin lips, and a hint of gloom flashed across her eyes: "Is it going to end badly?"

"It's miserable."

Ji Yucang asked: "If the people who harmed her were cut into pieces, would it be able to alleviate the hatred in her heart?"

Shen Ning didn't speak, but looked at the rockery outside the corridor, feeling overwhelmed and unable to calm down.

Ji Yucang, did he know something?

Since he liked Yan Jiuli so much, why was he so eager to marry "Shen Ning"?

When he told her this, did he know the truth about her rebirth?

But why would he know?

On the day he returned home on the third day, he said on the carriage that Nan Zhao proposed a marriage with Yong Guo, and that he wanted to marry a concubine... Only then did Shen Ning realize that he knew her identity at that time?

In other words, Ji Yucang knew it from the first day she became Shen Ning?

But how is this possible?

The Shen family frowned, they just couldn't figure out the whole story. It was true that he was the God of War of the Yong Kingdom, but he was just an ordinary person with a mortal body, not a Fangwai Warlock who was proficient in strange powers and chaos.

How on earth did he know?
