I'm not a scumbag

Pure material rewards mean little to Zhong Qingmei.

She has been tortured since childhood and is more determined than ordinary people.

In the Yan Kingdom, where women are respected, Zhong Qingmei's biological father really broke the secular prejudice and rose to power with his numerous military exploits, becoming the first male general in the history of the Yan Kingdom.

The father that everyone praised was Zhong Qingmei's nightmare when she was young.

Zhong Qingmei slowly closed her eyes.

He buried the unbearable past deeply in his heart.

Promotion into a noble title should have made many people envious and jealous, but in her opinion, this was not enough.

She wants more than that.

The first king with a different surname in the history of Yan Kingdom, this title is not enough.

What she wants is the whole world.

Qin Zuo's reputation was mentioned again with the victorious army.

This is no longer a public opinion that Ling Tingyu can suppress.

As the saying goes, good deeds never go out and bad deeds travel thousands of miles away. In comparison with Zhong Qingmei, Qin Zuo was completely criticized.

Qin Zuo, the person involved, did not panic at all.

He still has a trump card that he hasn't revealed yet.

"Are you not in a hurry at all? That woman Zhong Qingmei is too vicious, right? She has a good reputation, so why should you take the blame?!"

Ling Fantian is angry. His injuries are almost healed and he can go to court long ago. When he hears the arguments that are not conducive to Qin Zuo, he can't help but argue with you every time.

But because of his status as a prince, others didn't say anything on the surface, but they were disdainful in their hearts.

He Shan, who was recuperating in Qinzuo Courtyard, couldn't help but said, "Sir, why don't you let someone show up and wash away your grievances?"

This He Shan was a member of the death squad who narrowly escaped death on the battlefield of Chu State, and was one of the thousand households who were formerly part of the vanguard.

After being rescued by his brother, he hurried back to deliver the message after learning that Zhong Qingmei had not listened to Yang Mian's advice to withdraw his troops.

One person and one horse, she rushed back to the Yan Kingdom ahead of the large army. After Yang Mian's death, she could no longer trust outsiders, and it took several twists and turns to find Qin Zuo.

She is Yang Mian's confidant, Yang Mian has a relationship with her, and the He family is originally from the Yang family.

This is why after Yang Mian entered the Chu Kingdom, he did not look for other secrets, but went straight to He Qian.

Just as Qin Zuo opened his mouth to calm everyone down, he heard a voice coming from outside the door.

"Your Majesty orders everyone to enter the palace quickly."

The person who came was none other than the palace maid who was waiting beside Ling Tingyu. At this moment, her face didn't have the same eagerness as before, but only anxious.

Qin Zuo and Ling Fantian looked at each other and did not dare to stay any longer. After packing up, they followed the palace maid into the palace.

"He Qianhu, please join us."

Qin Zuo thought for a while and took He Shan with him.

The palace maid didn't think much and honestly led the way.

"But what happened?"

Qin Zuo took a step forward and asked in a low voice.

In his hand, he silently took out the banknote from his sleeve and stuffed it into it.

The palace maid didn't dare to answer, so she thought about it and replied truthfully, "Zuo Xiaoyi escaped."

At this time, everyone's eyes were solemn.

If you don't run away early, you won't run away later, but at this time.

No one can be picky about Zhong Qingmei's reward, and even Ling Tingyu's words cannot be taken back.

Next is a series of plans and punishments for Zuo Xiaoyi.

Although he was a prince of a foreign country, oh, he was a prince now, and the two countries could not cut him off due to diplomatic relations between the two countries, it was still easy to cut off his arms or legs.

Let him become a useless person, even if the envoy of Chu State blames him, there will be various reasons to stop it.

But now he has escaped.

Although this is not the Chu Kingdom, it is still the place where he has been planning for several years. The foundation is not shallow. If he really disappears, it will be a big hidden danger.

As for Zhong Qingmei, even a fool would not believe it when she said that she and Zuo Xiaoyi had no secret collusion.

They can understand these things, but the people don't.

Before everyone could enter the palace, they were stopped outside the palace by the guards.

The palace maid was so angry that she revealed her identity, but was kidnapped. Qin Zuo and his party saw something was wrong and had no time to save the cannon fodder palace maid, so they ran away.

The guard waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him chased Qin Zuo and his party.

It wasn't until Qin Zuo and others could no longer be seen that the guard released the maid. The maid regretted, "It's a pity that the fish didn't take the bait."

The guard glanced at her and praised, "You have done a great job. You have turned from darkness to light. The lord will definitely reward you greatly."

The palace maid's face lit up with joy when she heard this.

......

"Why so urgent?" Zhong Qingmei was very dissatisfied with Zuo Xiaoyi's unauthorized actions.

What's more, all of this was part of her plan. Originally, she only had to slowly erode the court like a frog in warm water, and finally she would be able to successfully force him into the palace. However, Zuo Xiaoyi changed his mind at the last minute, escaped by himself, and made his own decisions.

Zuo Xiaoyi's calm face showed a rare hint of anxiety, and he said in a hoarse voice, "The little princess is sick."

Zhong Qingmei's already frowning brows were almost twisted into knots.

"What's going on? Your people are so unreliable?"

Can't even take care of a little baby?

If something happens to the little princess, she will no longer be able to 'justify her name'.

Zuo Xiaoyi was also a little angry and said, "It's all the fault of that crazy woman Yang Mian."

Somehow, he tried his best to take Wang Cong away. If Wang Cong was still alive, would he be in such a mess?

He was also tied up and paraded around by this woman Zhong Qingmei!

"Now is not the time to shirk responsibility from each other. You don't need me to teach you what you are going to do next, right?"

Zuo Xiaoyi didn't want to argue with a woman. No matter which country she was from, he would be disgraced if he won the argument.

What's more, the situation is urgent now. I don't know how long the little princess can last. It's not a wise choice to waste time here.

Zhong Qingmei rubbed her brows and said, "You don't need to tell me, my Qinglong Army has already controlled the inside and outside of the palace. No one can come in without my permission."

"What about over there?"

Even though Zhong Qingmei was steadfast in her words, Zuo Xiaoyi did not believe everything. He also had his own plans and plans.

As soon as he said this, a soldier came forward in a hurry and whispered something in Zhong Qingmei's ear.

Zhong Qingmei looked complicated, but after thinking about it, she felt it was reasonable.

"What a coincidence, the news I just received is that Ling Fantian has slipped away."

Now it was Zuo Xiaoyi's turn to call Zhong Qingmei's people useless. Not to mention Ling Fantian, that dude also ran away?

"Forget it, let's ignore them for now. How is Ling Tingyu doing?"

After they finish dealing with Ling Tingyu, those people won't be able to make any trouble.

"Deng Zhuang has rebelled."

Another bad news.

But this unexpected situation was expected by the two of them.

Deng Zhuang doesn't love the country but loves beauty. He has no ambitions. He switched sides when he met Ling Tingyu because of his ability. If they had followed the previous plan, Deng Zhuang's reaction might not be so big, but now they can't wait any longer. Don’t get rid of Ling Tingyu.

This was naturally strongly opposed by Deng Zhuang.

Unfortunately, the objection is invalid.

It was because they underestimated Ling Tingyu and they didn't expect that this woman had some abilities. Not long after she took over, several of the traps they had laid were pulled out.

Naturally, we can't keep her anymore.
