Hongyue Qingcheng was just the most unfavored daughter of the city lord of Hongyue City. Hongyue Lingxiao could not imagine what kind of inside story there was about Hongyue Qingcheng's life experience.
"Elder Lingxiao, you have now seen Qingcheng. Do you think Qingcheng will pose a threat to anyone?" Ling Xuewei asked, "We were deceived by Wang Caifeng before and thought that Hongyue City could not be tolerated at all.
We couldn't leave Qingcheng, so we took Qingcheng and left quickly. It was obvious that after we left, we would never set foot in Red Moon City again. Even if Wang Caifeng felt that Qingcheng was a potential threat, as we left, this threat should disappear.
That's right, why do you think Wang Caifeng still has to die in Qingcheng?"
"This..." Hongyue Lingxiao couldn't answer.
"Also, when Taihe Sect came to Red Moon City and robbed Qingcheng, as far as I know, Taihe Sect's losses were very heavy." Ling Xuewei continued, "Elder Lingxiao, Taihe Sect is just a place in Middle-earth.
This humble little sect, why do you think they are willing to pay such a high price just to kidnap a daughter who has no cultivation and is hated by the Lord of Red Moon City?"
Hongyue Lingxiao broke out in cold sweat. He found that he could not answer any of the questions raised by Ling Xuewei.
After Ling Xuewei said this to Hong Yue Lingxiao, he also discovered that Hong Yue Qingcheng's life experience was not as simple as it seemed.
"Of course, you can say that someone promised enough benefits to the Taihe Sect that the Taihe Sect was willing to take such a big risk, but what was the other party's purpose? If Qingcheng didn't have enough greatness to attract them
Profits, why would they promise such generous rewards to the Taihe Sect?"
Ling Xuewei continued.
"So I believe there must be some secret hidden in Qingcheng, and this secret is the real reason why Wang Caifeng must put Qingcheng to death."
"I really don't know that this niece who has been imprisoned on Huxin Island since she was a child still hides secrets that we don't know about." Hongyue Lingxiao said, "But Miss Ling, what you said makes sense. Wang Caifeng tried every means to do so.
The earth wants Hongyue Qingcheng’s life, there must be many things hidden behind this that we don’t know!”
"As for whether I can be sure that Wang Caifeng secretly poisoned the city lord, I think I need to diagnose the city lord before I can make a judgment." Ling Xuewei said, "We can't just insist on this without even investigating the cause of the city lord's coma.
Everything was done by Wang Caifeng."
"What Miss Ling means is...as long as you can see our city lord, you will definitely be able to find evidence that Wang Caifeng assassinated the city lord?" Hongyue Lingxiao said thoughtfully.
"I am 80% sure. At least after meeting the city lord, I will diagnose the city lord first. At least I can find out the cause of the city lord's coma. With better luck, maybe I can find a way to wake up the city lord." Ling Xuewei told Hongyue Lingxiao.
said.
"Miss Ling has a way to wake up the city lord!" This was the best news that Hongyue Lingxiao heard today.
"Elder Lingxiao, please don't get excited. I'm just a fledgling alchemist. I only know some heretical techniques. My medical skills are definitely not comparable to Young Master Yuchi and Elder Lingxiao.
But sometimes, you might just have to rely on some unorthodox methods, and you might be able to achieve the therapeutic effect by accident?"
"Miss Ling, you are too humble. No matter what method you use, as long as you can make the city lord wake up, you will be our benefactor in Red Moon City."
Hongyue Lingxiao was so excited that her whole body couldn't help but tremble.
He kept saying, "Great! This is really great!"
"The most important thing for Elder Lingxiao now is to determine the cause of the city lord's illness. I wonder when I can go to diagnose and treat the city lord?" Ling Xuewei asked.
"this……"
Hongyue Lingxiao suddenly became embarrassed, and the excitement on his face disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"It's really difficult for outsiders to see the city lord now." Hongyue Lingxiao couldn't help but sigh when she talked about this matter, "Miss Ling, you and Mr. Yuchi haven't been able to see you since they entered Hongyue City.
To the City Lord, it’s really not that we deliberately made things difficult for you. It’s just that after the City Lord fell into a coma, Wang Caifeng set up a lot of rules for the City Lord’s safety. The purpose was to prevent other people from disturbing the City Lord’s recovery. Although you are
The alchemist I spent a lot of effort to invite, Wang Caifeng, still refuses to let you see the city lord because of her distrust of outsiders. However, some elders are very supportive of her decision."
"The city lord has been in coma for a month or two. They are not in a hurry to cure the city lord at this time. They are still worried that our group of alchemists who came to Red Moon City will be harmful to your city lord?" Yu Chixi laughed angrily,
Princes and nobles invited the alchemists of the Yuchi family to treat many diseases. This was the first time that Yuchixi saw patients who did not trust the alchemists so much.
Generally speaking, when the alchemist is invited to the Yuchi family, who is not anxious to ask them to cure the patient quickly?
"Mr. Yuchi, what you said is wrong. The city lord has been in a coma for a month or two now. I think the city lord's condition is very stable. He has been lying in bed for so many days anyway, so they don't want to wait a few more days.
, after ensuring that we will not be disadvantageous to the city lord, we will slowly decide whether we outsiders should go to diagnose and treat the city lord." Ling Xuewei said with a sneer.
"Hey..." Hongyue Lingxiao sighed heavily again, "It is said that doctors have a parental heart, and alchemists are very particular about their reputation. If you enter Hongyue City to treat the city lord, you will end up cured.
If the problem is solved, this alchemist will no longer be able to hang out in Red Moon City. Unfortunately, no matter what I say, they are not willing to listen, and they just want to stick to the rules set by Wang Caifeng to protect the city lord."
"So... Xuewei can't go and treat the city lord..." Qingcheng murmured to the side, unable to hide the disappointment in her tone.
Qingcheng's mother is gone, and her father is her closest relative in the world. Although Qingcheng has no memory now, she still wants to see her father with her own eyes.
No matter what kind of attitude her father had towards her, how much he hated her.
"Qingcheng..." Hongyue Lingxiao glanced at Qingcheng, and he suddenly began to sympathize with this niece who encountered various misfortunes since she was born.
Hongyue Lingxiao could see Qingcheng's desire for family affection from Qingcheng's eyes. Even if she was abandoned by her father when she was a child, being sent to the island in the middle of the lake was not much different from being abandoned.
But even like this, Hongyue Lingxiao did not feel any trace of hatred towards Hongyue City from Qingcheng.
Hongyue Lingxiao immediately felt that a kind-hearted girl like Hongyue Qingcheng should not have to suffer this.
"Now it is very difficult for Miss Ling and Yu Chixi to see the Lord of the City. This is not something I can decide. Even if I take you to see the Lord of the City, you will definitely be stopped directly. I am really sorry.
…”
The last sentence of apology was said by Hongyue Lingxiao to Hongyue Qingcheng.
"Elder Lingxiao, we haven't even tried it now, why do you say we can't do it?" Ling Xuewei rolled her eyes, and she suddenly understood why Wang Caifeng could cover the sky in Red Moon City with one hand.
Because these elders of Red Moon City are really easy to fool.
"It's impossible to know this kind of thing without trying. There are seven guards where the city lord is now. If you try to force your way in, you won't be able to get into the city lord's location. You will be blocked at the gate.
." Hongyue Lingxiao sighed helplessly.
"Elder Lingxiao, who said you were going to force your way in?" Ling Xuewei covered her forehead speechlessly. She only felt her head hurt.
"You will not be allowed to approach the city lord, especially Miss Ling. You are now a wanted criminal in Hongyue City. As long as you show your face in front of others, you will be arrested immediately." Hongyue Lingxiao said seriously.
"Elder Lingxiao, I know I can't show up now. Young Master Yuchi can't get close to the city lord without permission." Ling Xuewei said to Hongyue Lingxiao in the same serious tone, "There is no way we can see him.
I know very well about the city lord, but as the most powerful alchemist in Red Moon City, Elder Lingxiao always has to check the city lord’s health every day, right? If Elder Lingxiao wants to see the city lord, it must be a very simple matter.”
"Miss Ling, you..." Hongyue Lingxiao had already realized what Ling Xuewei was going to say to him.
"Didn't the wife of the city lord strictly prohibit outsiders from approaching the city lord? If they are servants of the city lord's palace, they can't be considered outsiders, right? For example, when Elder Lingxiao goes to do a routine inspection for the city lord, he brings two of his men or a girl with him.
Do you want to go with us?"
A sly smile appeared on Ling Xuewei's lips.
"I know that I am a wanted criminal in Red Moon City, but everyone thinks that I have escaped from Red Moon City. They don't know that I have returned to the City Lord's Mansion. Now the only person in the City Lord's Mansion is Mr. Yuchi, a foreign alchemist.
, as long as Young Master Yuchi stayed in this courtyard honestly, who would have thought that Elder Lingxiao would take a key criminal who had left Hongyue City to treat the Lord of the City? They would definitely not care about their own people.
Too many precautions!”
"Miss Ling, you are really smart!" Yu Chixi said with great admiration, "I am the only one left among the three alchemists invited by Elder Lingxiao. I believe that the wife of the city lord will only guard against me now. Since Elder Lingxiao regularly
I will go to the city lord for a physical examination, but no one would have thought that Elder Lingxiao would use this opportunity to send Miss Ling, who has already left the city, to the city lord, so that Miss Ling can diagnose and treat the city lord!"
