Dream of the Red Chamber: After being exiled, I went on a killing spree in Liaodong.

The group of imperial physicians turned pale, their eyes darted around, and their palms were covered in cold sweat.

The White Lotus Sect's holy maiden smiled.

A slight smile played on his lips, and an almost ecstatic smile appeared on his pale face.

—Can't you cure me?

Very good!

Brother Tianyi, wait for me, I'm coming...

She slowly closed her eyes, as if welcoming a long-awaited reunion.

The air seemed to freeze, and even breathing became a luxury.

The imperial physicians racked their brains and searched through medical classics, but their minds were as empty as a dry well that had been emptied.

No one dared to speak, no one dared to move.

"...She's out of breath."

An elderly doctor suddenly spoke in a trembling voice, his fingertip probing the airway, and he was struck dumb.

thump--

He collapsed to the ground with a thud, his whole body trembling like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.

"Whoa!!!"

"I don't want to die!!"

"It's all over...it's all ruined!!"

A cacophony of wails erupted instantly, plunging the underground palace into chaos.

Some people broke down in tears, some knelt down and kowtowed, and some even fainted on the spot.

Hearing the commotion, the guards outside the palace took off running and headed straight for the palace to report the news.

"Bang!!!"

With a loud crash, the inner gate of the Yue Kingdom's palace was kicked open.

"Useless! They're all useless!!"

The King of Yue, his eyes bloodshot, kicked over the dragon table, his roar causing dust to fall from the beams.

"What are those imperial physicians good for? They can't even save a patient?!"

"Pass down the order—execute the entire family! Leave no one alive!!"

"Yes!" The guard accepted the order and turned to run away.

The king slumped on his dragon throne, his knuckles clenched so tightly they turned white, and a barely perceptible tear flashed in his eyes.

The opportunity... just like that, it's gone.

What an enticing game of chess!

Once she is cured, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect will submit, the unrest in Guangdong and Guangxi will be quelled, and the world order will be completely rewritten!

But now, it's all ruined.

"Imperial Advisor!" He looked up abruptly. "Can we still make a move against Guangdong and Guangxi?"

The Imperial Advisor stepped forward slowly and said softly, "Your Majesty, why not send men to infiltrate Guangdong and Guangxi to search for any remaining White Lotus sect members who have escaped the net?"

"The Great Qian has already wiped them out once, how many are left?" the king sneered.

"What if?" The Imperial Advisor smiled slightly. "If someone really manages to escape, and we find them, it will be our chance to turn the tide."

Whether it will work out or not, no one can guarantee it.

But if you don't do it, you're destined to lose completely.

"Very well!" The king abruptly stood up. "Select the men immediately, and depart at once!"

"Yes." The Imperial Advisor bowed and withdrew.

at the same time--

News of Jia Yi's army sweeping across Guangdong and Guangxi and annihilating the main force of the White Lotus Sect had already spread like wildfire throughout the capital city.

"With the King of Qin taking action, how could he possibly lose?"

"The people of Guangdong and Guangxi have finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel!"

"A pillar of strength that can stabilize the seas! It truly lives up to its name!"

The topic was hotly debated on the streets.

But this news was not exactly a pleasant surprise for the people of Shenjing.

After all, in King Jia Yi's record of victories, this kind of victory would at most rank eighth from the bottom.

The Princess Consort and the Dowager Consort of the Prince of Nan'an rushed to the Prince of Qin's residence.

News has just come in—

The body of the Prince of Nan'an has been recovered and is being escorted back to the capital by the army.

The two noblewomen walked with tears in their eyes and heavy steps.

"Princess Consort of Qin, this time... we owe it all to the King of Qin!"

"If he hadn't sent people to retrieve the prince's body, my son wouldn't even have been able to enter the house!"

As she spoke, she broke down in tears.

They looked at Qin Keqing with eyes full of gratitude and respect.

To onlookers, this scene was like a knife cutting through their hearts.

Grandmother Jia's face turned ashen, and her fingernails dug into her palms.

She is the most respected matriarch of the Jia family!

But when the princess and the dowager princess arrived, they didn't exchange a single polite word, only expressing their deepest gratitude to Qin Keqing!

The bitterness in my heart almost burst through my throat.

"No need for such formalities, Dowager Princess and Princess Consort."

Qin Keqing gently supported the two of them, her voice gentle yet firm.

"We're all family, this is something we should do."

A look of pity crossed her eyes as she gazed at the two women torn apart by grief.

The Prince of Qin's residence was shrouded in deep sorrow.

And the Rongguo Mansion—

The place was already filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, and laughter echoed throughout.

"I knew it! With Third Brother leading the expedition, victory is assured!"

"With Third Brother's name mentioned, wouldn't those White Lotus Sect rebels be terrified and flee in panic?"

Xichun's eyes lit up, her tone full of admiration.

"Absolutely! I wish I could don armor and go into battle, following behind Third Brother to fight and achieve merit!"

Shi Xiangyun clenched her fists tightly, her eyes burning with anger.

From a young age, she was energetic and uninhibited, but now she wished she could be reborn as a man.

The mere thought of fighting alongside Jia Yi on the battlefield and commanding thousands of troops made her blood boil, and her fingertips trembled.

"If you really became a man—"

Lin Daiyu covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her eyes sparkling. "I'm afraid it'll tear the sky apart, leaving seven or eight holes in it?"

"Hahaha!"

The sisters burst into laughter, their voices clear and crisp like bells.

Interspersed among them was a strange "quack" sound, just like a duck whose neck had been stepped on.

The source is Jia Baoyu.

If we say that he used to be fair-skinned and chubby, he still had the air of a wealthy young master.

Now she is so tender that you could squeeze water out of her skin, her face is so delicate it's like it could be broken with a touch, and she exudes a kind of feminine charm.

The way people looked at him became somewhat subtle.

Since that incident, Jia Zheng has completely abandoned him and no longer pays him any attention.

Instead, it allowed him to completely let loose, spending his days frolicking among girls and forgetting all about home.

"In my opinion, it's more fun to be a girl."

Jia Baoyu sighed softly, his tone tinged with envy.

How wonderful it would be to be born a girl!

Lin Daiyu wanted to sneer and make a few sarcastic remarks, but she swallowed the words back down her throat.

Looking at his appearance, she finally softened.

Some scars should not be reopened.

"I think men are better," Shi Xiangyun said calmly, then fell silent.

She was afraid that in her excitement, she might speak recklessly and hurt Baoyu's feelings.

The atmosphere became slightly awkward, and the women tacitly changed the subject.

They then began a heated discussion about what kind of congratulatory gift would be appropriate to give Qin Keqing after the birth of her child.

They started arguing back and forth, and soon the argument was in full swing.

in the palace.

"During the Tang Dynasty, was the White Lotus Sect in Guangdong and Guangxi completely eradicated by Jia Yi?"

Emperor Yuankang smiled and gently placed the battle report on the table, then turned his head and asked.

"Your Majesty, the purge has not yet been completely eradicated."

Tang Shi bowed and replied, "The King of Qin has already dispatched troops in four directions to encircle and suppress them. The remaining rebels have fled into the mountains and forests, where they are being cleared out. It will take some time to completely eradicate them."

"Good!" Emperor Yuankang nodded emphatically.

His gaze immediately turned cold: "Order the Embroidered Uniform Guard—send more men into Guangdong and Guangxi, and make sure they cooperate with Jia Yi to eradicate the White Lotus Sect completely, leaving no one alive!"

"yes!"

During the Tang Dynasty, he clasped his hands in a gesture of respect to receive orders.

At the same time, Dai Quan immediately sent the good news to the retired emperor's bedroom.

"Hmm, not bad."

The Emperor Emeritus stroked his beard and smiled, a hint of approval in his eyes: "That lad Jia Yi has never disappointed us."

"Indeed! Your Majesty is wise and mighty! The Prince of Qin is brave and skilled in battle, winning every single one!"

Dai Quan smiled broadly, his flattery perfectly timed.
