After rebirth, she killed her best friend and took over the scumbag's kingdom

"I say, stop being jealous here. What we should be thinking about now is what Taoist Qingxuan and your senior brother are planning by sneaking in here."

"Want to know? That's easy. Just go and ask them." Xiao Qiongzhu said as she was about to get up and leave.

Yun Kaizhou grabbed her and said, "Zhu'er, please be patient. Don't forget your senior brother's advice to stay away from that person. Just wait in this carriage, I will go and ask for you."

Xiao Qiongzhu slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, look at my memory. I forgot such an important thing."

She smiled a little embarrassedly, and then looked back at the lotus pond reluctantly.

The pond was filled with lotus flowers, some fully open, some half open, and some in bud, which were breathtakingly beautiful.

Xuan Wu saw through her thoughts and said softly, "Master, please wait in the car for a while. I will pick some lotus flowers for you. I guarantee that no one will notice."

Xiao Qiongzhu nodded.

After a while, Yun Kaizhou climbed onto the carriage mysteriously.

"Zhu'er, I found out everything."

He lowered his voice and said, "Your senior brother and Taoist Qingxuan and the others originally wanted to get a lock of Yun Jingxi's hair. But I didn't let them do it, and went straight to Li Meir. Now that the hair is in their hands, they have already returned to the Xiao Mansion."

"Then let's go back quickly." Xiao Qiongzhu said.

Yun Kaizhou pulled out a stack of property deeds from his arms and said, "Look what this is."

He handed over the stack of property deeds with a smug smile on his face, "I just went to the government office to transfer this today. All the property in the Lu Mansion is now in your name."

Xiao Qiongzhu took the stack of house deeds, took a look at them and handed them to Xuan Wu.

She was no longer interested in money. After all, she already had countless treasures and the Starry Pavilion that made a fortune every day.

"By the way, how is the recruitment going in Prince Duan's Mansion? If you need money, just tell me. The last thing I need right now is money."

Yun Kaizhou pondered for a moment and replied, "In Shangjing City, the money is enough for now. After all, the Prince Duan's Mansion has some background, so it's not so easy to be poor. However, the army is more expensive. Let's talk about those things later. I heard that the border may be uneasy recently and there may be a war. The court is currently lacking available military generals. If the Prince Duan's Mansion wants to gain military power in this war, I may need to go to the border in person."

After saying that, he was afraid that Xiao Qiongzhu would worry, so he comforted her: "Don't worry too much. I just said it's possible, it hasn't come to that yet. I will act carefully."

Xiao Qiongzhu shook her head. "I'm not worried. I've led troops and fought in wars before, so I'm not that fragile. I just think we should speed up the process of disintegrating Yun Jingxi's power."

She looked at the street scene outside the carriage and said, "It would be best to pull Yun Jingxi down from that position before the battle."

Yun Kaizhou heard her words and nodded: "You are right. I will contact my father. Yun Jingxi is not in Shangjing City. This is a good opportunity."

Xiao Qiongzhu seemed to have thought of something.

"What do you think would happen if Yun Jingxi had an accident in Cangzhou and Prince Duan was in Shangjing City?"

She leaned close to Yun Kaizhou's ear and whispered.

Yun Kaizhou turned around suddenly, his eyes fixed on Xiao Qiongzhu's face, trying to find out her true thoughts from her expression.

He saw that her expression was serious and she didn't seem to be joking. It was obvious that she really wanted Yun Jingxi to die in Cangzhou.

He tried to calm his inner turmoil and began to analyze the situation calmly.

After careful consideration, he solemnly said to Xiao Qiongzhu: "We can't let him die directly in Cangzhou, because that would implicate too many innocent people. We can't let innocent people be implicated for personal grudges. This is not just a few lives, but may involve the fate of several families."

Xiao Qiongzhu actually had this idea on impulse.

She didn't expect Yun Kaizhou to take this matter so seriously, and she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

She held Yun Kaizhou's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't let innocent people get implicated. I just had this idea suddenly."

Yun Kaizhou nodded. He knew that Xiao Qiongzhu was not really a cold-hearted person.

He comforted her, "Don't worry, your brother is already taking action. Even if he returns to Shangjing City, he won't live long."

Xiao Qiongzhu raised her eyebrows. She didn't know what her senior brother had done specifically, but she knew that as long as Yun Jingxi continued to indulge in women, he would be poisoned to death.

She was not worried about this, she just didn't want Yun Jingxi to die too comfortably.

After returning to the room, Xiao Qiongzhu summoned Xuanyi and ordered, "Go and see what my senior brother and Taoist Qingxuan are doing. They have been very secretive recently, and I don't know what they are up to."

Xuan Yi said with some embarrassment: "Master, Taoist Qingxuan and your senior brother are both masters among masters. I can't get close to them at all, let alone detect their whereabouts."

Xiao Qiongzhu sighed, knowing that she had made things difficult for Xuanyi.

She waved her hand and let Xuanyi continue to be invisible.

She decided to keep an eye on the two men herself to prevent them from getting into an unmanageable situation.

She quietly came to the gate of Taoist Qingxuan's courtyard, and when she was about to go in, she was stopped by Ji Guiyi who suddenly appeared.

"Junior sister, why have you been so mysterious these two days? What are you busy with?" Ji Guiyi asked with a smile.

Xiao Qiongzhu glared at him and asked unhappily, "Brother, don't pretend to be confused. I want to know what you and Taoist Qingxuan are doing. Tell me what you are doing?"

Ji Guiyi chuckled and said, "Junior sister, don't worry. We are performing a ritual to teach that dog emperor a lesson."

"Ah? Are you really performing a ritual? Can I watch? Does our Ghost Gate have this kind of skill?" Xiao Qiongzhu asked in surprise.

"Of course, come in." Ji Guiyi said, and made way.

Xiao Qiongzhu walked into the yard curiously, and saw a long table in the yard with an incense burner and several incense sticks on it.

Flags were erected all around, forming a Bagua formation.

Ji Guiyi was seen pointing his sword to the sky and muttering something.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and a bolt of lightning struck the Bagua Formation.

Xiao Qiongzhu was stunned. After the thunder and lightning disappeared, the dark clouds dispersed, the strong wind stopped, and everything returned to calm.

Ji Guiyi opened his eyes and said slowly, "It's done."

Taoist Qingxuan said quietly, "It's done? What will happen to the dog emperor now?"

Ji Guiyi raised his eyelids and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill him for now. I'll just make him spit out some blood."

"Brother, what kind of sect is our Ghost Sect? Why is it so magical?"
