Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

This time, she would absolutely not let Ye Qiancao off the hook.

Because she actually dared to impersonate Chi Junlin!

She dares to impersonate! The Crimson Emperor!

Wenren Tianxia absolutely cannot tolerate this!

We will eliminate this demonic witch right here!

At this moment, Wenren Tianxia exuded a terrifying aura. He placed his hand on his sword, and the fierce sword force instantly pierced through the long street.

Ye Qiancao also lost her usual composure, and a hint of seriousness appeared in her eyes.

Because she could feel the chilling killing intent emanating from Wenren Tianxia!

She couldn't help but stick out her tongue, thinking to herself, "I've really messed up this time."

Then, a girl's angry roar echoed down the long street.

"Ye Qiancao! Today, you will surely die here!"

Chapter 126 Royal Bloodline, the Secret to Restoring the Kingdom

The weather is getting colder.

Along the southern city wall.

Previously, when Ye Qiancao entered the city, Chi Junlin and Wenren Tianxia were standing on the city tower.

There is no one else left in the entire city gate area.

Only Chi Junlin stood alone on the city tower.

He gazed at the desolate scene in the city from afar, seemingly lost in thought.

She was still dressed in white, standing with her hands behind her back.

A silver spear stood on the ground beside him.

The scenery in the city was mesmerizing, and something seemed to be attracting the attention of Red King's Landing.

Meanwhile, on the steps of the city gate tower.

Lou Xiangfei, dressed in light clothing with a solemn expression, slowly walked up the stone steps from below.

Only Chi Junlin was on the city tower, so Lou Xiangfei didn't need to look for anyone else.

Her gaze was very calm, and she showed no strange expression when she saw Chi Junlin on the city wall.

She simply clasped her hands in front of her abdomen, maintaining a dignified posture.

Then, she slowly began to speak, "Lin Jun, it was actually you..."

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin turned his gaze away from the distance.

Then, looking at Lou Xiangfei, he smiled slightly and said, "Aren't you surprised?"

Lou Xiangfei's face showed no smile, but rather some annoyance. She said to Chi Junlin, "I have treated Jianhe Sect well, so why should I go against the Lou family?"

Chi Junlin did not answer, but suddenly spoke up, "Aren't you wondering why I chose to meet here?"

Lou Xiangfei did not answer, but there was indeed a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Chi Junlin then explained with a smile, "After Wenren Tian came here last time, I discovered that this place is very nice."

The terrain is spacious and the air is fresh, making it a great place to enjoy the scenery.

Look, from here, you can see the prefectural city gates and the main streets all at once.

"We can see everything that's happening in the city clearly from here."

Upon hearing this, Lou Xiangfei actually looked in the direction that Chi Junlin had indicated.

Just as she said, this place is open and spacious, so any major personnel changes in the city can be detected immediately.

Normally, ordinary people wouldn't have the opportunity to stay in such a military stronghold for an extended period of time.

Thinking about this, Lou Xiangfei felt a little strange.

Where have all the guards around this city gate gone?

If Lin Jun could manage to mobilize these garrison troops, the hidden power behind the Sword Harmony Sect might be even stronger than she imagined.

That would be a bit troublesome.

Chi Junlin was unaware of what Lou Xiangfei was thinking at that moment, and did not give her much time to think.

Instead, he continued, "The wealth of the Lou family is comparable to that of half a country."

But at first I didn't understand where the money in your hands came from.

Later, I obtained another piece of intelligence.

I originally thought that the Lou family's wealth came from exploiting the people. But I never imagined that the entire commercial route in the south was actually controlled by the Lou family.

From large-scale military equipment to small-scale household goods, the Lou family has business shares in almost everything...

Lou Xiangfei, I admit I underestimated you.

The Lou family's status in the Southern Kingdom is truly akin to that of a ruler.

As Chi Junlin spoke, he turned to look at Lou Xiangfei.

Lou Xiangfei looked at Chi Junlin, suppressing her anger, and said as calmly as possible, "Return Fei'er to me, and I will grant you whatever you want."

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin looked at Lou Xiangfei with a smile on his face, remaining silent.

Lou Xiangfei suddenly realized that the woman before her sought neither fame nor fortune.

She didn't even know what the woman wanted.

This made Lou Xiangfei feel extremely uneasy.

Chi Junlin suddenly raised his hand again, took out an object, and displayed it in front of Lou Xiangfei.

When Lou Xiangfei saw that thing, her pupils suddenly contracted, as if she had been greatly stimulated, and she became both shocked and angry.

What appeared in Chi Junlin's hands was merely a silk scarf with an extremely simple design.

The embroidery depicts only a pair of mandarin ducks, but strangely, there seems to be a trace of blood on the corner of the scarf that cannot be washed off.

There was also a short poem tattooed next to it.

"On the seventh day of the seventh month, in the Hall of Eternal Life, at midnight when no one was around, we whispered our vows: 'In heaven, we wish to be birds flying wing to wing; on earth, we wish to be trees with intertwined branches.'"

Lou Xiangfei gritted her teeth and looked coldly at Chi Junlin.

Because this silk scarf was something she kept in her secret room.

The fact that the silk scarf was in Chi Junlin's hands meant that she must have been to her secret chamber.

At this moment, a strong killing intent rose from Lou Xiangfei's body.

It seemed that she had never wanted to kill anyone so much in her entire life.

Chi Junlin, however, did not care at all, and looked at the silk handkerchief in his hand and said, "Before seeing this, I knew that Lou Lifei was very important to you, but I did not expect him to be this important."

In my opinion, a woman like you, Lou Xiangfei, is of no use to blood ties and family affection.

To achieve great things, one can even kill one's own brother.

But precisely because you want to achieve great things, you absolutely cannot lose Lou Lifei.

Chi Junlin unfolded the silk scarf in his hand and continued, "If it were anyone else, they might not know what this silk scarf means."

But coincidentally, I had spent some time in the palace and had heard some secrets about the Jiang family.

What do you mean by coincidence?

I happen to know that when Jiang Pingman swept across the four kingdoms, he had a deeply unforgettable love affair with a woman from the Southern Kingdom.

The woman's identity is unknown, and she only stayed by Jiang Pingman's side for a very short time. After that, she disappeared without a trace.

But after extensive investigation, I confirmed that this woman was indeed the daughter of the Lou family.

I have also wondered why, given the Lou family's status in the South, and how a hero like Jiang Pingman could be so foolish as to spare your lives and allow you to become so powerful in the South.

If it were me, I would have exterminated the entire royal family of the previous dynasty, not even sparing a dog.

Now I understand, it must have been this woman from the Lou family who intervened. Jiang Pingman was soft-hearted, which is why he didn't exterminate your entire clan.

This woman later gave birth to a son, who was Jiang Pingman's biological child.

Unfortunately, after giving birth to her son, Lady Lou died in childbirth.

Before his son could grow up, Jiang Pingman also died during his northern expedition.

Therefore, this child was destined to never be able to recognize his biological father.

And you think that this child's royal status can be used to your advantage.

She then adopted him into her own family and raised him as her foster mother.

If I'm not mistaken, after this, the Lou family will bind Jiang Mao to their war chariots, and then, with the help of his garrison troops as a base, they will spend a lot of money to raise a large number of rebel troops.

Then, Lou Lifei reveals his identity as Emperor Jiang's biological son, using the royal mandate as a pretext to cede territory and establish his own independent regime.

In this way, the military and political affairs of the Southern Kingdom will be in your hands, and you will also have a great cause to uphold. The restoration of the Lou family's kingdom will be just around the corner.

Am I right?

Lou Xiangfei's expression remained unchanged after hearing Chi Junlin's words.

But the fact that she did not refute it proves that everything Chi Junlin said was true.

Upon seeing Lou Xiangfei's cold expression, Chi Junlin slightly loosened his grip.

As a gust of cold wind howled, the silk scarf fluttered from her fingertips.

Lou Xiangfei immediately raised her hand and held the silk scarf in her hand.

She gripped her knuckles with extreme force, as if she wanted to tear apart this unjust fate.

Then Chi Junlin chuckled softly.

"What a pity. Just one move away, and you would have made the game live."

Chapter 127 Just out of the wolf's den, encountering tigers and leopards again

Before the main avenue of the prefecture, on the long street.

The "Red Emperor's" chariot was getting closer and closer to the ambush set up by the Lou family.

Tong Yan couldn't help but frown, feeling nervous inside.

Because she could already see with her naked eye that the Lou clan's retainers and servants, led by Lou clan members, were hiding in the shadows of the gate tower on the street ahead.

They are just waiting for the order to act.

Meanwhile, the young and strong maids responsible for the safety of "Red Emperor" around the white sedan chair were completely unaware.

His expression was even hazy and smiling, unlike a normal mental state.

Tong Yan still remembered what Chi Junlin had told her that day.

No matter what, we must not allow the Lou family to kill the person sitting in the sedan chair today.

Although Chi Junlin didn't know who would be sitting inside.

But since this is the result Ye Qiancao wants, Chi Junlin will definitely not allow it to happen.

As the sedan chair arrived in the middle of the road, the servants and retainers of the Lou family were about to make their move.

Tong Yan thought to herself, "There's no time to wait for Chi Junlin to arrive."

So he stepped forward and blocked the white-veiled sedan chair.

The sedan chair stopped immediately.

Upon seeing this, the Lou family members no longer hid.

Immediately, someone shouted, "Attack!"

Then everyone around drew their weapons and charged toward the sedan chair.

Seeing this, Tong Yan no longer hesitated.

He then shouted to those around him, "Sect leaders, now is the time! Follow me and protect our Commander-in-Chief!"
