Yan Qi only tasted it briefly and let go of Zhao Huayin after a light kiss.

Zhao Huayin stood there in a daze. She didn't expect Yan Qi to kiss her suddenly. When she came to her senses, she felt so shy that she buried her face in Yan Qi's chest.

Yan Qi smiled quietly.

"It's too late to hide now, be careful not to suffocate yourself."

Zhao Huayin refused to listen and buried her head even deeper.

Seeing that the atmosphere had become more relaxed, Yan Qi discussed the next steps with Zhao Huayin.

"I have just made an agreement with your father that I will go back to prepare and come to propose marriage as soon as possible, so I will go back to the Qin Palace today."

"you are leaving?"

Yan Qi has been guarding here these days, but to Zhao Huayin, it seemed as if Yan Qi was about to leave as soon as she woke up.

Why do I feel so reluctant?

However, Zhao Huayin also understood that with so many things happening outside, Yan Qi would definitely have a lot of things to deal with.

"Is your Majesty's injury all right?"

Zhao Huayin sat up and asked Yan Qi.

"Although it was a sword wound, the wound was not deep. It's just that my pampered body can't stand the hardship."

Speaking of Emperor Hui, Yan Qi's face was full of sarcasm.

Zhao Huayin felt a little strange. Emperor Hui had always disliked Yan Qi, and Yan Qi was not close to Emperor Hui. However, when talking about Emperor Hui in the past, Yan Qi was quite respectful. Why did he have such an attitude now?

"Prince Jin is accompanying him in the palace, so I won't go to join in the fun. The Xie family's troops need to be reorganized and dispersed to various places. I'm going to the Ministry of War to look after this matter.

Also, the city defense camp has dealt with the Xuanwang Mansion, and I have to go and see the other officials of the Xuanwang faction and report their crimes."

"Well, go and do your work first. I know you have a lot of things to do. Official business is the most important thing. You can prepare for the marriage proposal slowly. There is no rush."

"Of course, the proposal is urgent, but we have to choose an auspicious day before we can come. I guess your father will ask the Ministry of Rites to choose a date for me."

Zhao Huayin thought so too. Her father would definitely not be willing to hand this matter over to others, so he would have to keep an eye on his subordinates to do it.

"Daddy will definitely choose an auspicious date and let others tell you."

Zhao Huayin had a smile on her face. Having the love of her father and mother was the happiest thing.

"And Daddy must discuss the date with Mom, so that Mom can have time to prepare her dowry."

"So this period of time is enough for me to finish the things I have on hand. You just woke up, so don't rush out during this period of time. Nanny Qian will take care of Yunshangfang."

Yan Qi gently lifted the loose hair on Zhao Huayin's forehead and gave careful instructions.

"As for the person who bumped into you at the entrance of the restaurant that Qing Shuang mentioned just now, I will find out who it is."

"You don't have to check. I can guess who did it. Do you want to lock her up with King Xuan?"

"Do you know who it is?

Yu Ying'er and Zhou Pei, who wanted to harm you, are both stuck in Prince Xuan's mansion, could it be that they have accomplices?"

Zhao Huayin was a girl who stayed at home and had never been involved in the court. The backyard of the Shangshu Mansion was very quiet. Yan Qi could not imagine who would want to harm her.

"It's my cousin, Zhao Huaqin."

Zhao Huayin spoke calmly, and Yan Qi was indeed a little surprised.

"Your cousin is from your uncle's family who inherited the Zhao family's fortune, right? You have been living separately, and there is no family fortune to fight over. You should have lived in peace. Why would she want to harm you?"

“This is something I have never figured out. Ever since I found out that Huaqin placed something related to witchcraft in my yard, I have been trying to figure out why Huaqin wanted to harm me.

Until the last time she let me know that she was in contact with the sorcerer from Jiaozhi, and I confronted her, she just said she hated me but didn’t tell me why.”

Speaking of this, Zhao Huayin suddenly thought that perhaps Yan Qi could help with this matter.

Zhao Huayin smiled at Yan Qi.

"Why don't you take her back and ask her why she hates me so much? I asked her, but she wouldn't tell me. I remember that she is Hua Zhang's sister, and I have tolerated her many times. It's not good to let her hurt me all the time, right?"

"Since she was the one who harmed you, I will naturally take her back. Besides, it will be difficult for her to get out once she goes in."

Looking at Yan Qi's stern face, Zhao Huayin did not speak for Zhao Huaqin. Zhao Huaqin had hurt her time and again, and Zhao Huayin was not a kind-hearted person, so she could not let bygones be bygones.

"Then take him back and interrogate him thoroughly so that I can know the reason."

Yan Qi just mentioned Yu Ying'er and Zhou Pei, Zhao Huayin then asked,

"King Xuan was deposed, and the palace was sealed. What about Yu Ying'er and Zhou Pei? Did you also take them to the city defense camp?"

"They are still in Prince Xuan's Palace."

Yan Qi straightened the clothes Zhao Huayin was wearing before continuing,

"The black magic that hit you this time is extremely powerful and difficult to resolve. Not only is the black magic caster who cast the spell on King Xuan very skilled, but King Xuan also sacrificed a human life."

"Could it be..."

Zhao Huayin had a vague guess in his mind.

"Yes, you guessed it right."

Yan Qi nodded to Zhao Huayin.

“Zhou Pei and Yu Ying’er were both sacrificed, as well as the baby in Yu Ying’er’s belly.

I guess Yu Ying'er's child is not King Xuan's own flesh and blood."

"how do you know!"

"Prince Xuan's mansion has no heirs. If Yu Ying'er's child is Prince Xuan's, you will never be willing to kill your own child."

"That's right. Yu Ying'er and Zhou Pei have been together for a long time. The child must be Zhou Pei's."

"No wonder, King Xuan is a narrow-minded person, vindictive. These two people betrayed him, and he will definitely take revenge on them in the most vicious way.

Parsi Mumo saved you, but these two people suffered backlash and have to endure inhuman torture every day. It is worse than death, so I sent them back to Prince Xuan's palace to let them live well and for a long time. "

The fate of these two people really matched what they had done. Zhao Huayin couldn't help but sneer.

"That's what they deserve. That's what they deserve."

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and asked,

"Who is this Parsee mother you just mentioned? Was it she who saved me?"

Yan Qi nodded.

"Yes, you have seen her. It was after you saw her that you asked Qingshuang to send a letter to King Jin saying that King Jin had hired a sorcerer and asked King Jin to take some measures.

As a result, the King of Jin made full preparations beside Your Majesty, but they used evil magic against you. "

"It turned out to be her. She said that day that she came to look for her apprentice, but I didn't expect that she saved me in the end. I guess her magic must be very powerful."

"She is indeed very powerful, but when she saved you, she said that because your fate was different from others, your soul was not scattered and could be saved. Otherwise, if such magic was used on you, you would definitely die."

Different circumstances, does it mean that I have died once and now I am reborn?

I am so lucky. If it weren’t for this opportunity, I would probably have lost my life.

"Where is this Parsee mother now? I want to go and thank her in person."
