Martial Arts Universe: With a single command, 100,000 iron cavalry will sweep across the martial wor

Looking at his disheveled clothes, Su Qingfeng simply took out a new set from his system space and changed into them. He had only come to subdue the Tide Demoness Lady Mingzhu, but he hadn't expected that he would end up on her bed.

They've already brought him to the bedroom, isn't that enough to completely subdue him?

He turned to look at Madam Mingzhu, who was still fast asleep, with a sense of helplessness—after all, he was her first man.

Right now, Su Qingfeng is figuring out how to get her away from Han Kingdom. After all, Lady Mingzhu is still the king's concubine. If he really pushes the King of Han too far, there's no guarantee that the other party won't resort to desperate measures.

Su Qingfeng didn't want to waste his energy on this. Even if he destroyed the Han Kingdom, it would only benefit King Ying Zheng of Qin. He wouldn't do something so thankless.

When Madam Mingzhu woke up, she saw Su Qingfeng sitting to the side, lost in thought. She secretly took out her hairpin, intending to kill the woman who had ruined her reputation.

Her innocence, which she had guarded for so many years, was ruined by this man, and her emotions were in turmoil.

But holding the hairpin, she couldn't bring herself to do it. After all, he was her first man. After a moment's thought, she decided to let him go.

"You scoundrel, why aren't you leaving yet?" Madam Mingzhu said, both embarrassed and annoyed.

Su Qingfeng was speechless when he saw that she wanted to send him away as soon as she woke up. He felt as if he had entered a brothel and had to leave after the service was over. He looked at Madam Mingzhu, who was even more radiant than usual, and smiled: "You really want me to leave?"

Seeing that he was still grinning, Madam Mingzhu angrily scolded:

"Get out! Get out of my palace right now!"

Su Qingfeng instead sat down on the edge of the couch, lay down, and said somewhat awkwardly, "Um... I was about to leave, but... I wanted to ask you for a favor."

When Madam Mingzhu saw that he dared to approach and even asked for her help, she immediately gripped her hairpin tightly and said defensively, "Help with what?"

"Could you please provide me with the antidote for the Gu poison that Tianze has been afflicted with?"

"Are you from Baiyue Tianze?"

"No. I made a deal with him. He did things for me, and I got the antidote for him."

Madam Mingzhu hadn't expected Su Qingfeng to come asking for the antidote to the Gu poison. Although she knew how to concoct it, what right did she have to help him?

Bai Yifei was, after all, her cousin. Even if she never truly trusted him, she had once been fond of this much older man. Madam Mingzhu would never help Su Qingfeng ruin Bai Yifei's plans. "Go. I won't give you the antidote."

Su Qingfeng sat down beside her and smiled, "Don't be so heartless. Even a night of marriage can have a hundred days of kindness; you should at least remember some of our past affection." Madam Mingzhu, seeing him sit down next to her, was both ashamed and angry: "Who gave you permission to come here? Leave immediately; I never want to see you again."

Su Qingfeng didn't care, only smiling as he watched her annoyed expression. He had noticed the hairpin in her hand earlier—she had wanted to stab her earlier, but ultimately didn't.

Women who have been with him before are indeed different. If he hadn't had any physical intimacy with her, he probably wouldn't be talking to her now; this ruthless woman would have killed him long ago.

"Mingzhu, I made a promise to Tianze. You wouldn't want me to break my word, would you?"

"What does this have to do with me? Forget about the antidote. I won't give it to you even if you kill me."

"Why would I kill you? You might be the mother of my child someday."

"The child's mother..." Lady Mingzhu was slightly taken aback. She had never thought of such a thing. Ever since Bai Yifei sent her to the palace, she had planned to live out her life alone.

Helping Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei was merely a matter of self-preservation. Otherwise, Bai Yifei would likely not let her go even before Ji Wuye made a move.

She subconsciously touched her lower abdomen. Could it be... she really be pregnant?

She pondered silently, suddenly wondering if Su Qingfeng truly had the ability to protect her and any future children she might have.

At this moment, she even felt a little tempted to help him, but he had to be a reliable person. Otherwise, she and her child might not be able to save their lives in the future.

"Who exactly are you? I need to know everything about you."

Su Qingfeng almost laughed when he saw her touching her belly—it's only been a few times, how could she get pregnant so easily? She wasn't a god, otherwise Yanfei and Jingni would have been pregnant long ago.

His expression was somewhat strange as he slowly spoke:

"I am Su Qingfeng, the Martial Lord of the Southern Song Dynasty. I have now raised an army and established my own rule. The south of the Song Dynasty is now in my hands, and within a year, I may be able to rule the entire Song Dynasty. I also have influence over the Sui Dynasty across the sea. Even your Qin Dynasty in the Eastern Continent has tens of thousands of my elite troops stationed there. I am an ally of the King of Qin."

"Why aren't you saying anything?"

"I've said everything that needed to be said."

"I'm so angry! You're not trying to hide the fact that you have a wife, are you? Tell me everything—how many wives you've married and how many children you've had."

Madam Mingzhu was furious. Although the man's words had startled her, he hadn't revealed a single detail about how many women he had. Madam Mingzhu guessed that this guy must have quite a few women around him.

She never imagined that this seemingly unreliable person would be the future ruler of the Southern Continent—an empire far larger than the Han Kingdom. She had heard that the Southern Continent had been divided in two, but even half of it was roughly the same size as the Eastern Continent. Moreover, Su Qingfeng had formed an alliance with the Great Qin, which surprised Lady Mingzhu even more.

Madam Mingzhu couldn't understand why Su Qingfeng was already making moves in the Eastern Continent when he hadn't even conquered the Southern Continent yet. She shook her head, deciding not to dwell on it. She was now quite satisfied with Su Qingfeng's identity; this meant she and her child wouldn't have to live in constant fear anymore.

"I have three wives. One is in South Korea... well, I guess. And I only have one daughter."

Su Qingfeng told Madam Mingzhu somewhat awkwardly. He hadn't expected Madam Mingzhu to care so much about how many women he had; it seemed women were all pretty much the same in this regard. Luckily, this was ancient times, otherwise he would be juggling several relationships—and that didn't even include his confidantes.

"You, the dignified Lord Wu Xiang, only have three wives? You're not lying to me, are you?"

Lady Mingzhu was skeptical. In Han Kingdom, even a random nobleman had multiple wives and concubines; Su Qingfeng was about to unify the entire continent—how could he only have three or four wives? Who would believe it?

Su Qingfeng looked at Madam Mingzhu helplessly. Was it shameful to have few wives? He knew that those noble officials all had many wives and concubines, but each of his wives was a peerless beauty, one of them was worth more than a whole group of others.

Why would I lie to you? You'll find out sooner or later anyway, so what's the point of hiding it from you now?

"So, you're a respectable man after all?"

"Ahem, of course I'm serious."

"Pah, I'd never believe you! What are you being so serious about?"

Su Qingfeng put his arm around Madam Mingzhu and gave an awkward smile.

"Alright, Madam, I have other matters to attend to. In the next two days, prepare the antidote for Tianze's Gu poison, and also make your own preparations. I will come to pick you up to leave this place in two days."

When Madam Mingzhu heard that Su Qingfeng would be taking her away in two days, she was overjoyed. She hadn't expected him to act so quickly and take her away from this troublesome place.

However, this is, after all, Xinzheng in the Han Kingdom. If Su Qingfeng secretly takes her away, will it anger the King of Han? Lady Mingzhu asked with some worry, leaning gently against Su Qingfeng's chest.

"You really think you can take me away? We're in Han Kingdom now, and your troops aren't here. Are you planning to secretly send me out?"

"No need to sneak around. I have a way to make Han Kingdom hand you over to me willingly. The Qin envoy was killed this time, so I can use this to threaten King Han. If he doesn't agree, I'll have Qin send troops to scare him."

"Su Qingfeng, Lü Buwei is currently in power in Qin, and the King of Qin has not yet assumed personal rule. Do you think the Qin army will listen to you?"

"Heh, I have the Black Dragon Token. Do you think King Han will be afraid when he sees it? On one hand, he's willing to go to war with Qin for a woman, and on the other hand, he's willing to sacrifice a woman to preserve peace. King Han will weigh the pros and cons."

Lady Mingzhu was immediately relieved when she heard that Su Qingfeng possessed the Qin Kingdom's Black Dragon Token. She thought that the Han King was so cowardly and greedy for peace that he would never offend the Qin Kingdom for a woman, and he would surely abandon her upon seeing the token.

She couldn't help but laugh when she saw Su Qingfeng's mischievous expression:

"You're really wicked. I'll wait for you to come pick me up in two days. I'll prepare the antidote for Tianze's poison in the next two days. Oh, and I'll take all my maids with me too. They're all tulip-like girls I trained myself, and I can't bear to leave them behind."

Su Qingfeng embraced the beautiful Madam Mingzhu, kissed her, and asked, "Alright. By the way, who is the Straw Raincoat Guest? Do you know?"

Madam Mingzhu blushed and glanced at him:

"I don't know. This person is very mysterious, but he knows everything about the nobles and officials of South Korea. I guess he might be an official of South Korea, or a member of the royal family."

"Could it be the Fourth Young Master, Han Yu?"

Su Qingfeng stood up, stroked his chin, and voiced his guess. He wanted Madam Mingzhu to help confirm it, since she had been with the Nightfall organization for many years and should know some clues.

"Hiss... Now that you mention it, it really could be him. He has a thorough understanding of both the palace and the outside world. Apart from the Fourth Young Master Han Yu, no other young master or official has such abilities."

Su Qingfeng nodded, it seemed his guess was correct. This news might make Han Fei owe him a favor in the future.

If Han Fei is captured by the King of Qin in the future, perhaps he can be invited to work in his future empire. Han Fei is exceptionally talented, and Su Qingfeng does not want him to be buried in obscurity.

"Well, these things are none of our business. I just want to do Han Fei a favor. After I leave, you should persuade King Han to release Han Fei and let him take over the investigation of the assassination of the Crown Prince and the Qin envoy."

"I understand. Be careful of Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei when you're out there, especially Bai Yifei. His martial arts have already reached the peak of the Grandmaster level, and he'll probably break through to the Great Grandmaster level soon."

"Don't worry, two of your sisters are Grandmasters, and another is about to break through. I'm not afraid of them."

The gate of Xinzheng City.

An ordinary carriage entered Xinzheng City. As soon as they entered, the people in the carriage noticed an unusual commotion; city guards were searching everywhere, as if something serious had happened. "Gai Nie, Xinzheng City is in such chaos, what has occurred?"

"This is probably a serious matter; we've come at an inopportune time."

Seated in the carriage were King Ying Zheng of Qin, the swordsman Gai Nie, and Wang Hu, the commander of Su Qingfeng's guards, all from the Qin state.

They should have arrived much earlier, but Ying Zheng changed his mind on the way and detoured through the State of Wei, which is why they arrived late at Xinzheng in the State of Han. At this moment, a guard stepped forward to report:
