Your Majesty, don't look back. I am Your Majesty.

After hearing this, Su Manying was shocked and said quickly, "In Manying's opinion, these two are just short-lived young dandies. They may not even be able to make it to the Grandmaster List in the future. How can they be qualified to make the peerless emperor of the ancient and modern times, the Great Xia Wu Emperor care so much about them?"

"That's true."

The man in the well seemed to be very pleased with his daughter's flattery. He laughed twice, and then his hoarse and rough voice became more human:

"Ayara, I'm sorry."

"The reason why father planted the blood parasite in you was because he was afraid that you would be like your brother, Longsheng, and go back on your word and betray father."

"It's okay, it's all over. Ling'er just hopes that father will let me go from now on."

Su Manying said with a sad look.

"Let you go? Damn, can you speak, kid? Didn't your father say it? One day, your father will take you to become an immortal, and completely transcend this mundane world!"

The man in the well spoke in an unhappy tone.

"I'm afraid that one day, my father will step on the corpses of all the people in the world and transform into an immortal dragon."

Su Manying smiled sadly.

"Okay, okay, my dear daughter, if you want to quit, I won't stop you. However, you have to help me do one last thing. After this is done, if you want to resign from your position as an elder and live in seclusion among the people, I will never stop you." said the man in the well.

"What's the matter?" Su Manying's eyes lit up.

"Four days from now, I want you, Elder Suyue, to attend the Jintan Dharma Assembly on behalf of the Zongwuyuan. Afterwards, you and your nephew, the young emperor Wudao, will order the abbot of the Jintan Temple, Monk Kongshan, to open the underground palace and help me see if the head of Queen Xiu is corrupt."

At this point, the man in the dry well sighed, his tone actually sounded a bit fearful: "Alas, at the beginning, I asked Su Wudao to split the body of Queen Xiu into two and find a way to destroy it, but I didn't expect that no matter what, he couldn't break the black ice on the surface of her body. In the end, it was the monks of Jintan Temple who came forward, took away her head, and buried it in the underground palace of the temple, using Mahayana Buddhism to permanently suppress her evil spirit."

"Father, Ling'er has two questions."

Su Manying listened quietly, and suddenly said in a low voice.

"go ahead."

"First question, the current Emperor Yuan Tai has completely become your supporter and believer. If you want to see the body of Queen Xiu, why can't you just let him go? Why do you have to let your daughter accompany you?"

Su Manying asked.

The man in the well hesitated for a moment and replied, "At first, I thought that Longsheng and Mingjing would not disobey me. But what happened? After they took the throne, they began to think about getting rid of my control and betraying the contract they had made with me. The "nutrients" they sent to me became less and less, and in the end, they even stopped coming to see me."

"So, how can I guarantee that Su Wudao will not go back on his word? That's why I asked you, my good daughter, to help me keep an eye on him. I guess it's like you two are supervising each other."

"So, does Wudao know the true identity of your grandfather?" Su Manying asked again.

"He doesn't know, and I have no intention of telling him. This way, he will be able to work for me with peace of mind, without worrying about the throne being taken back by me." The Man in the Well said with rare frankness.

"Okay, second question."

Su Manying asked again: "Why do you care so much about Queen Xiu's life or death?"

After hearing this, the man in the well sighed and said, "Ling'er, do you know why Emperor Ming Jing Su Yan went against all odds and married Empress Xiu, a half-demon woman?"

Su Manying shook her head.

"Because he wanted to rebel against me! And that damn half-demon queen of his almost completely wiped me out!"

Emperor Wu of Xia at the bottom of the well gritted his teeth with a look of resentment.

"I see"

Su Manying's beautiful eyes were deep. After thinking for a moment, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, Manying is willing to complete this last task for the emperor, but after this, Ling'er hopes that the emperor will let me go. I want to pursue the life I want."

“Okay, okay, as long as you two are sure that there is no possibility of Queen Xiu being resurrected, I will not look for you anymore! You can take your silly son with you and go wherever you want. Even if you want to find a young and handsome prince consort after being a widow for many years, father will gladly agree! Hehehehehehe!”

Seeing that his daughter happily accepted the task, the man in the well was ecstatic and let out a creepy laugh.

"Okay, then, I will bid farewell to my father for now."

Su Manying gritted her teeth and was about to turn around and leave.

Suddenly I was stopped by the other party.

"and many more."

"What else does Father want?"

"I asked Su Wudao earlier why he sent Concubine Li to the cold palace. Although this girl is not good-looking, she is reliable and keeps her mouth shut. Over the years, Su Wudao followed the secret passage in her palace and came to this abandoned courtyard without anyone knowing."

"She often comes to pay respect to my grandfather during festivals and has never failed to be polite. How could she suddenly..."

"That's all Concubine Li's fault."

Su Manying interrupted coldly, "Your Majesty, you don't know that Concubine Li had an affair with a guard in the palace and was caught by Concubine Wan in the harem. Your Majesty didn't kill her because of your face."

"I see. No wonder Su Wudao was too embarrassed to tell me the truth."

"This useless thing, as the emperor, was cuckolded by a worthless guard. It's really shameful for him to be the emperor!"

The man in the well sneered repeatedly, his tone full of mockery.

After sneering at his grandson for a while, Emperor Wu of Great Xia at the bottom of the well said proudly: "By the way, I heard from Chen Defu that I have been away from the palace for many years, but my Empress Xiao's Cining Palace still hangs my portrait. Take a look! This is the charm of an unparalleled hero!"

"Although I am not in love with this 'special Empress Xiao', she still regards me as her only man! Hehehehe~"

Listening to the disgusting laughter coming from the bottom of the well, Su Manying felt irritated and deliberately said, "Oh, Father, I forgot to tell you something."

"When Man Ling went to the Cining Palace to pay a visit to the Empress Dowager, she discovered that she had removed all your portraits in the palace."

"It seems that you are not so unforgettable in the heart of the Empress Dowager."

"Rong Ling'er, please be a little presumptuous. The Empress Dowager has an ageless face and is extremely beautiful. She has been a widow for many years. Maybe she is also like Concubine Li, unable to bear it. To some extent, you two can be considered to be of the same lineage."

"What!?"

169 Sorry Xuaner.....

Before I knew it, three days had passed.

There is only one day left before Emperor Xia will hold a ceremony at the Jintan Temple for Empress Xiu of the previous dynasty.

On this day, after Yu Da, the "most affectionate person in the imperial palace", finished his work with Concubine Wan, he accompanied the little princess Qingqing to the top of the Holy Beast Mountain to enjoy the view. They stayed there for two full hours, until the sunset faded and the moon rabbit rose in the east, and then they returned to the cabin by the Mirror Lake.

"Wow, this Minister Mo is really capable. In just a few days, my mansion is already halfway completed."

When passing by Mirror Lake, Yu Huaian stopped for a moment and looked at the building in the lake that had begun to take shape under the moonlight, and he could not help but marvel at it.

But then, a sense of disappointment arose in my heart.

Yes.

Ever since he heard from Concubine Qi that Queen Mingyue had returned to the palace, he had always had a bad feeling in his heart -

This Jintan Temple Dharma Assembly will be the most difficult one for He Yu since he traveled through it so far!

Maybe after this, the world will turn upside down, the empire will change dramatically, and he will leave the imperial city forever.

Naturally, I don’t have the chance to enjoy this Jinghu mansion anymore, alas.

"Well, we have to leave for Jintan Temple in the suburbs of Beijing before dawn tomorrow. I probably won't be able to sleep tonight, so I'll practice swordplay."

Yu Huaian made up his mind, summoned the Yuchang dagger from the storage space, and flew into the backyard in a flash.

Looking at the sycamore tree in front of the backyard, a memory suddenly flew into my mind.

"Yes, that day, Ling'er and I met the girl in the green dress with a proud bust here."

"And this girl in green dress called "Xiao Die" is Lan Yun's fiancée and personal maid."

Thinking of the girl in the green dress, he couldn't help but think of the eldest sister on the Tianjiao list who was dressed as a man.

His brows furrowed again:

"Lan Yun's family has a deep connection with Queen Xiu. She is definitely involved in those mysterious cases. According to the spies in the factory, she is still staying in the capital."

"So, is it possible that she will get in touch with Queen Mingyue and create a big event together at the Jintan Dharma Assembly?"

Thinking of this, Yu Huaian couldn't help but be shocked.

"By the way, the Empress Dowager said that the Lan family, like Queen Xiu's family, are both half-demons. So, if I really fight her, I'm afraid my swordsmanship will be more useful!"

With this in mind, Yu Huaian retracted the Yuchang Sword and took out the golden Hupo Sword!

"Ghost Hunting Sword Technique - First Slash!"

"The body turns into the Netherworld, and the demons surrender!"

Yu Huaian's eyes were as fast as lightning, and the obscure and mysterious ghost knife techniques quickly flowed through his sea of ​​consciousness. With a clanging sound, the tiger soul knife energy in his hand burst out, and the eerie ghost energy suddenly burst out from the blade!

The ghostly aura of the underworld quickly wrapped around him, disappearing his body at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning it into a blurry ghost shadow!

Then, he turned into a ghost and quickly shuttled through the void. Wherever he went, he left behind a powerful and long-lasting sword light in the void!

Just a moment!

The void was already filled with golden sword light, illuminating the dark yard as if it were daytime!

"The second knife, the world does not exist, only my heart remains!"

"The third sword, the sword energy is sweeping and sweeping, everything is thwarted!"

Yu Huaian's expression was stern, his mind was clear, and he continued to swing his sword, using all the mysteries of the Ghost Hunting Sword Technique that he had mastered!

"Bang bang bang bang!"

The continuous sound of slashing echoed through the void.

Each cut is faster than the last!

Each strike of the sword is more powerful than the last!

The more Yu Huaian practiced, the more passionate he became, and even his usual enthusiasm for fighting with a group of beauties was aroused!

In the end, the moonlight, the sword light, and his figure intertwined together, creating a dreamlike picture!

Ding.

"After some practice, your sword proficiency has improved."

The system prompt sound rang in my ears.

Yu Huaian then stopped, rested his energy and put away his sword.

"Fight! It's fun!"

At this moment, he just felt that his mind was clear and he felt refreshed!
