Chapter 358: Jinse’s Scheme

Jinyu looked at Song Jinyu. Seeing that she was injured because of resistance, she felt both heartache and hatred. She ached for Jinyu's injury, and hated herself for still feeling heartache for her.

Not wanting to talk about the past anymore, Ouyang Jinshe put away her sorrow and smiled sinisterly. "Song Jinyu..."

"Do you think I've only captured Concubine Shu?"

She leaned slightly close to Jinyu's ear and said amorously, "Actually, in three days, the entire imperial palace will become a dead palace!" Hearing this, Song Jinyu raised her head. "You're crazy!"

Waving her hand, a sharp glint flashed across her fox-like eyes. "I'm going to destroy the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty."

Since Zhongli Mingye dared to snatch Song Jinyu away from her, she would destroy the entire royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty. So what if he wielded great power in the court? Back then, it was because she was not as powerful and influential as Zhongli Mingye that

Song Jinyu didn't take a fancy to her.

Now, she wanted to see how this prince would handle the situation! Would he fight desperately to save his beloved wife, or turn back to rescue the entire imperial palace?

She felt a sense of gratification. The humiliation of being trampled under Zhongli Mingye's feet back then gradually emerged before her eyes. At this moment, Ouyang Jinshe was gradually going crazy.

Song Jinyu closed her eyes and thought quickly. Had Zhongli Mingye discovered this predicament?

Now she also vaguely guessed the whereabouts of Concubine Shu. Ouyang Jinshe's activities in the capital relied on Zhongli Chengze.

Presumably, Concubine Shu must be under Zhongli Chengze's influence.

Where was she?

Song Jinyu cast her gaze on the half-dead man. A faint smile flashed across her lips.

"My lord! Your subordinate has found the trace of the princess..."

"This silk flower bears the exclusive mark of the prince's mansion... Presumably, the princess once took shelter in this abandoned temple."

After three days, they finally got news of her. Zhongli Mingye felt slightly relieved. "What about Concubine Shu?"

"Have you searched all of Zhongli Chengze's manors?"

Qingfeng and Xingjian knelt on the ground. "Your subordinate hasn't found her yet. We've searched all ten of Zhongli Chengze's manors..."

Zhongli Mingye calmed down. "He doesn't only have ten manors. There are also restaurants, taverns, and the Star-Picking Tower!" He had already investigated Zhongli Chengze's properties earlier.

Now it came in handy.

Song Jinyu had stepped into the tiger's den herself to buy time. If she hadn't gone, Concubine Shu might have been killed.

So, Zhongli Mingye felt heartache. It was all for him. He secretly made up his mind that when she came back, he would definitely confine her properly, confine her for a lifetime,

and keep her by his side!

It turned out that she loved him so much. Zhongli Mingye always thought that she was passively accepting his love. He never expected that one day, she would even disregard her own life for him.

Song Jinyu, Song Jinyu. Zhongli Mingye's heart panicked again. He didn't dare to think about the worst outcome...

He just regretted not confining her at home,

not tying her firmly by his side.

Wei Changyuan reported, "My lord, we've found the trace of spies from the Woluo Kingdom in the South China Sea..."

His phoenix eyes were dark and unfathomable. "They're courting death!" At such a critical moment, there were traces of spies from other countries. "Kill every single one of them. If there are two, kill both."

"Moreover, there must be someone in the court colluding with them!"

"Pass on my order. If anyone dares to collude, I'll exterminate their nine clans!"

"Yes!"

He also guessed the intention of the person behind this. Were they trying to force him to abdicate by using Song Jinyu as a hostage? Or was it for the imperial power? However...

The message left by Song Jinyu more clearly pointed to Ouyang Jinshe! A person who was supposed to be dead. "Someone, search the entire imperial palace inside out!"

"Order Yu Nianbai to take full control of the entire imperial palace. If you encounter any suspicious people, execute them first and report later!"

"Yes!"

The emperor was so hungry that he felt dizzy. Finally, a palace maid came. "Your Majesty, please have your meal."

This time, he finally stopped his hunger strike. Based on his understanding of Zhongli Mingye, he wouldn't be too heartless to him. It was just that...

The weakness in his lower body was extremely terrifying. It was impossible for the emperor to move as freely as before!

He picked up the imperial edict and handed it to the palace maid. "Give this imperial edict to Prince Yu!"

However... Zhongli Mingye coldly threw the imperial edict aside. Did he still need this imperial edict at this moment?

After the incident, he hadn't visited the emperor in the palace again.

Now, if Concubine Shu and Song Jinyu were safe, he could still let the emperor enjoy his twilight years in peace. If something happened to them, his gaze became even more sinister.

If something really happened!

He would definitely not let the emperor spend his later years easily!

Today, Ouyang Jinshe brought Song Jinyu to a mountain villa. "This time, we'll travel by water!"

She glanced at Zhongli Chengze out of the corner of her eye. She recalled that just now, while Ouyang Jinshe was away, she had managed to find out the whereabouts of Concubine Shu. It turned out that she was hidden in the cellar of the cold palace!

What a clever move.

In the chaos, Zhongli Mingye and the others might have thought that she was in Zhongli Chengze's hands. They never expected that the person was right under their noses!

However, it seemed that she had been fed a Gu poison. It was a pity that Zhongli Chengze had fainted later. Otherwise, she would have found an opportunity to ask more questions.

Looking back at this mountain villa, it wasn't very large. However, these people were extremely respectful to Ouyang Jinshe. Presumably, they were the hidden forces of the Golden Water Palace.

After all, it was the second most powerful sect in the martial world. Sure enough, not long after, someone came back to report that the boat was ready.

However, to avoid suspicion, they had chosen a very inconspicuous ordinary fishing boat.

Gradually, Song Jinyu guessed Ouyang Jinshe's purpose. It was to force her out of the Prince Yu's Mansion! She became even calmer. "You've made such a big fuss just for me?"

Ouyang Jinshe gently stroked her charming face. "Yuer, let's go to a place where no one can find us."

"For the rest of our lives, it'll just be you and me..."

Looking at Ouyang Jinshe, who now looked completely like a woman, Song Jinyu shrank back fearfully. "I think I'd rather be your sister!"

These words enraged Ouyang Jinshe. "What did you say?" She immediately pounced on her and sneered. "If you were to submit to me... would he still want you?"

"Even if he takes you back, every time he makes love to you and sees the marks I've left... Ha..." Song Jinyu's gaze fell on her high chest, which was no less prominent than her own.

She wanted to laugh but also felt sad.

For the moment, she stopped talking and took the opportunity to break free from her confinement. Ouyang Jinshe thought she was scared and stopped. She murmured amorously in her ear, "Yuer..."

"Be with me!" Just as she was secretly fingering the hairpin on her head, about to seize this opportunity to strike her down,

unexpectedly, Ouyang Jinshe's gaze fell on her head. "This hairpin is really unique!"

She pulled it out and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, she laughed. "Song Jinyu, you're really amazing!"

Having been seen through, Song Jinyu smiled. "One should always be on guard against others. I didn't know if you would harm me, so I brought it."

"It's a bit ugly. Why don't you help me choose a nice pearl hairpin, Jinshe?"

Song Jinyu sat up. Her bright eyes were filled with an inexplicable joy. "I've never received a pearl hairpin from you, Brother Jinshe."

"In the past, Yan Fei gave me a hairpin, my elder brother gave me one, and Mingye also gave me one. Only you... never did." These words made Ouyang Jinshe abandon the idea of punishing her.

She looked at her with a complex expression. "If I give it to you, will you wear it?"

Looking up at her, Song Jinyu smiled brightly. "I hope you'll put it on for me yourself." Ouyang Jinshe couldn't quite believe it. Suddenly, she rushed out of the door in a hurry.

Song Jinyu immediately turned cold. "Travel by water? That means going south!" The largest river in the Great Xia Dynasty was the Min River. Apart from going overseas,

it seemed that she had no other choice!

No, the place where she fell off the cliff back then. Ouyang Jinshe had no certainty of going overseas! The fact that she had become like this today must mean that she had experienced something under that cliff!
