In the sunny weather, Bai Yi and Qin Zheng stood at the bow of the boat and watched the scenery and started chatting.

"Is Mr. Bai going to attend the auction conference in the Divine Soldier City? It's too late this month, but you can wait for the next month." Qin Zheng said with a smile.

Bai Yi nodded and asked Qin Zheng: "What about you? You don't look like you are going to attend an auction."

"We are going to join relatives and friends," said Qin Zheng.

"Relatives and friends? You and your parents are going to join relatives and friends. Where is your elder brother Lin?" Bai Yi asked Qin Zheng.

"Everyone Lin is here to pick us up to the Divine Soldier City." Qin Zheng said with a smile. Mu Lin told her that you don't have to be too nervous. Mu Lin's identity in the Divine Soldier City is not a secret. Anyway, Bai Yi will know it when he arrives at the Divine Soldier City.

"A Zheng."

Hearing Mu Lin's voice coming from not far away, Qin Zheng and Bai Yi turned around at the same time, and saw Mu Lin standing there, signaling Qin Zheng to go over.

"Young Master Bai, Brother Lin asked me, I'll go there first, let's talk about it another day." Qin Zheng nodded slightly to Bai Yi, and then walked towards Mu Lin quickly.

Bai Yi quietly watched Qin Zheng walk to Mu Lin's side, then took Mu Lin into her room, silently retracted his gaze, and looked at the seagull flying in the sky ahead, not knowing what he thought of, and sighed slightly.

"Brother Mu, what's the matter with me?" Qin Zheng asked Mu Lin to sit down and asked at Mu Lin.

Mu Lin glanced at Qin Zheng's bright and jade-like face and said, "I remember when I first met you, there was a scar on your face."

Qin Zheng looked slightly stunned, reached out and stroked her side face, smiled and shook her head and said, "Yes, that scar has been with me for many years, and it has existed when I was a child. After returning to Qingluan Kingdom, my grandfather... Qingyu specially found a magic medicine for scar removal for me to remove the scars, but she should just think that I can 'sell' this way' to a good price!"

Qin Zheng was sold to a brothel when she was a child. She wanted to escape, but she failed. When she was about to be caught back, she scratched her face with a knife. It was also at that time that Dugu Ao saved her and took her to the Yin family. There was no chance to remove the scar, but because Dugu Ao said to her, don’t care about her appearance, she really doesn’t care.

"It's been several years in a flash." Mu Lin said, "We will be able to arrive at the Divine Soldier City in three days. I can't ask my uncle and aunt directly, so let's talk to you."

Qin Zheng looked up and looked at Mu Lin and said, "Brother Mu can say anything directly."

"No matter whether your surname is Qing or Rong, you are the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Rong of Xuanye Kingdom. This will not change." Mu Lin looked at Qin Zheng and said, "Ye Minghua wants to marry you. This time Dugu and I took you away from Qingluan Kingdom, ruining Ye Minghua's marriage, but I believe my younger sister is capable of handling the relationship between Shenbing City and Xuanye Kingdom. I just want to ask you, are you really going to stay in Shenbing City in the future? Or do you want to go back to Rong's home and recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?"

Qin Zhengxiu frowned slightly and said, "Brother Mu, except for my father, I have never met anyone else in the Rong family, and there is no relationship. But my father, even my mother, has always felt ashamed of his grandfather and grandmother. My grandmother passed away two years ago and my father could not go back to attend the funeral. Although he didn't say it, he must be very sad. I have never talked about this with my parents, but if there is a chance, they will definitely want to take me to recognize my ancestors."

"You have to think clearly that the Rong family is a big family. If you choose to go back to Xuanye Kingdom and live with the Rong family, you will be subject to a lot of constraints in the future, including your marriage. Your grandfather has the full power to intervene, and the Xuanye Kingdom royal family also has the power to decide your life and death and future." Mu Lin looked at Qin Zheng and said, "The Divine Soldier City will not protect you at that time, but Qing Yu will not let you go, and will definitely attack you. The Rong family is a scholarly family, and I am afraid that it will not resist Qing Yu's conspiracy."

"I have thought about these." Qin Zheng nodded slightly and said, "I will talk to my parents. In fact, my father has been separated from the family for more than 20 years. Even if he wants to go back, he may not be able to integrate into the current Rong family, let alone my mother. Besides, my father's behavior back then brought shame to the Rong family and was punished by the royal family. The Rong family may not forget it until now. I hope we can stay in the Shenbing City in the future, but if there is a chance, I want my parents to meet with my grandfather without causing trouble for you, and we will kowtow to my grandfather."

Mu Lin nodded: "I understand that uncles and aunts are kind and generous people, so you don't have to be too nervous. I just think that now you have contacts with the Rong family, which is easy to cause trouble for the Rong family. It is better to wait patiently for a better opportunity. When the Qingluan Kingdom is destroyed, you will be completely free."

Mu Lin told Qin Zheng that he did not want Rong Qian and Qingye to go to Shenbing City and then he was thinking about returning to the Rong family. If someone was interested in using it, he would cause trouble. Shenbing City and Xuanye Kingdom are just cooperative relationships. At the beginning of the alliance, there may not be any variables. Trust is mutual, but it is also limited. The relationship between Qin Zheng and Ye Minghua is destined to resolve the conflict between Xuanye Kingdom and Shenbing City in the future. Although Mu Lin felt that Ye Minghua would not turn against Shenbing City because of a woman, it was unpredictable. If Ye Minghua really fell in love with Qin Zheng and thought that Shenbing City's behavior was slapping him in the face, he would have a grudge against Shenbing City, or Ye Minghua didn't mind on the surface and hated Shenbing City in his heart, and waited for the opportunity to retaliate, he would have to use the Rong family.

Mu Lin felt that Rong Qian and Qingye were both good elders, but their personalities were a little simple. Compared to the fact that Qin Zheng, whose life was not smooth before, was more rational in the face of family affection, so Mu Lin told Qin Zheng about this instead of talking directly with Rong Qian and Qingye.

"Thank you, Brother Mu, for telling me all this." Qin Zheng looked at Mu Lin and said gratefully, "I will find an opportunity to talk to my parents about the Rong family. If you save our family, no matter what happens in the future, I will put the interests of the Divine Soldier City first and will not be impulsive."

"Okay." Mu Lin said as he stood up, looked at Qin Zheng and asked, "What did Bai Yi tell you just now?"

Qin Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Bai thanked me for the sweet soup the day before yesterday. He is actually not bad, but for some reason, he seems to be hostile to Brother Mu."

"Nothing." Mu Lin said with a faint expression, "Just a little girl who doesn't know the height of the sky and the earth."

Qin Zheng was stunned: "Little girl? Mr. Bai is..."

"Well, it's almost here. There is no need to have a deep relationship with her. We just did a business. The ship fare I paid was definitely something she earned. After getting off the boat, we parted ways. When we saw each other, we were just strangers we met." Mu Lin said to Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng then realized that Mu Lin mentioned that Bai Yi was not really asking her what she had talked to Bai Yi, but to remind her not to trust Bai Yi easily, and not to make friends easily.

Qin Zheng and Bai Yi didn't say a few words along the way. She nodded seriously after hearing this and said, "Brother Mu, don't worry, I understand." Qin Zheng said that Bai Yi is not bad, just a casual evaluation, which does not mean that she became friends after chatting with Bai Yi, even if she learned that Bai Yi was a female companion for men.

Qin Zheng is a very rational girl at heart. She is polite and polite to outsiders. She is not really so simple. She has been here for several years. She has not made a new friend here, and has no personal relationships with the princes of the Qingluan royal family. It is because she knows her situation, so she is very wary of people. Apart from her parents, she does not want anyone to be her ties, and she does not want to be used by anyone.

But people like Mu Yan and Dugu Ao, including Xiao Yuesheng, who had previously pretended to be Xiao Xinghan in Qisha City, were old friends to Qin Zheng and were definitely trustworthy people.

When Mu Lin came out of Qin Zheng's room, he saw Bai Yi standing at the bow of the boat. He just turned around and looked at each other. Mu Lin withdrew his gaze indifferently and turned into his room. The faint smile that originally appeared on Bai Yi's face was stiff at the corner of his mouth...

Xuanye Guozi Night City.

Ye Minghua had already returned to Midnight City. When he entered the palace to meet Ye Zhao, Ye Chonghua was also there.

"Congratulations to my third brother." Ye Minghua was obviously in a very good mood and looked at Ye Chonghua with a smile on his face.

Ye Chonghua, who was sitting in the wheelchair, was still so thin, and he looked at Ye Chonghua, smiled bitterly and said, "He Xizhi? My father forced me to marry a woman I didn't like, what's there to be happy about?"

Ye Minghua was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Ye Zhao's face sinking instantly. Ye Minghua actually didn't know why Ye Chonghua suddenly wanted to marry a wife. He thought that Ye Chonghua finally got ready and stopped pursuing the dreamer, but he didn't expect that he was forced by Ye Zhao.

"Chonghua will go back. I will get married the next day. I don't want any problems in this." Ye Zhao frowned and looked at Ye Chonghua and said.

Ye Zhao has always loved Ye Chonghua very much. Whether it was Ye Chonghua who used to be or Ye Chonghua now, this love is different.

Ye Chonghua was born with a disability but had a very good personality, was optimistic and filial. Ye Zhao loved him simply because of his father's love for his son.

But when Ye Chonghua got seriously ill, as if he had changed someone, Ye Zhao's feelings for Ye Chonghua changed. Ye Zhao always remembered the words of the monk who became a Taoist monk, and he also felt in his heart that the original Ye Chonghua was dead and a new Ye Chonghua was reborn, otherwise many things would not be explained, such as Ye Chonghua's medical skills.

Ye Zhao still felt that Ye Chonghua is his son now, because he is still the same person. But Ye Chonghua's character now makes Ye Zhao very troubled, and sometimes he is a little bored. His favor for Ye Chonghua has gradually faded away by Ye Chonghua. Now it is more because of the assertion of the monk. Otherwise, Ye Zhao would have been unable to stand Ye Chonghua's disobedient son who always causes trouble for him.

This time, forcing Ye Chonghua to get married was also a test for Ye Chonghua. If Ye Chonghua dared to disobey again, Ye Zhao would be completely disappointed with him. Ye Chonghua had also realized this.

Hearing Ye Zhao's words, Ye Chonghua lowered his eyes slightly: "Father, my son has surrendered."

Ye Chonghua was pushed away by someone. Ye Minghua looked at his back and frowned slightly. After sitting down, he asked Ye Zhao: "Father, will it be counterproductive to force his third brother to marry a woman he doesn't like like this?"

Ye Zhao snorted coldly: "What else do he want? Do you let him continue to be willful and then go to find the dreamer? That person exists, Jin Liancheng knows who it is, and says that the person has become a biological child. I can't tolerate Chonghua being so obsessed with it anymore! What's wrong with whether he likes it or not? If you are born in the royal family, don't be a kind of infatuated person! Otherwise, there will be no good result! Chonghua must understand, and you must remember it too!"

Ye Minghua was stunned for a moment: "Father, this..." Ye Minghua felt that part of Ye Zhao's anger seemed to be related to him, and the last sentence seemed to be deliberately said to him, but he didn't understand what he did wrong? He liked Qingxue, but he never was willful and impulsive. This time, it was Qingluan Kingdom who took the initiative to propose marriage. Ye Zhao agreed and sent a message to him to come back...

"Look at this!" Ye Zhao said, throwing a piece of paper in his hand to Ye Minghua.

Ye Minghua frowned, held it in his hand, glanced at it, and said in disbelief: "This is impossible!"

The letter was written by Qing Yu and written to Ye Zhao. The letter said that the royal family of Xuanye Kingdom was betrayal and said that Ye Zhao was a shameless villain. She knew that Ye Minghua liked Qingxue, so she made a great concession and made an exception to let Qingxue marry outside. However, she did not expect that the royal family of Xuanye Kingdom had a set of tricks in person and secretly kidnapped Qingxue's family. On the surface, she pretended to agree to humiliate Qingluan! Qingluan said at the end of the letter that the royal family of Qingluan and Xuanye Kingdom had no possibility of alliance! Let the royal family of Xuanye Kingdom take care of themselves!

"Minghua, tell me, what's wrong with Qingxue being kidnapped?" Ye Zhao looked at Ye Minghua and said coldly. Not many people have known about Ye Minghua and Qingxue's engagement so far, and Qingyu has not chosen to publicize it now, because it does not benefit Qingluan Kingdom.

"Father Mingjian, Erchen has never left Shenbing City before, and has never sent anyone around him to Qingluan Country." Ye Minghua frowned and said, "I don't know anything about this! Erchen likes Qingxue, but he has no intention of doing anything that shouldn't have done!"

Ye Zhao looked at Ye Minghua with deep eyes: "You really don't know?"

Ye Minghua nodded: "Father, I can swear! No matter who kidnapped Qingxue, it must have nothing to do with me!"

Ye Zhao looked inexplicably: "I believe you won't do that kind of stupid thing. Then what do you think is going on? Since Qingyu wants to join forces with Xuan Yeguo to deal with Shenbing City, marriage is true. She will not go back on her word and make up a story to hide Qingxue. Since it's not you, who would take Qingxue away? She also took Qingye and Rong Qian, and even the servants of her confidants."

Ye Minghua's face was not good-looking because he returned to Midnight City with joy, waiting to get married with Qingxue, but he didn't expect that such a thing would happen. He had a bad premonition that his marriage with Qingxue was probably lingering...

Ye Minghua was silent for a moment and said, "I also know about Qingxue's situation in Qingluan Country. She has not made friends with anyone. She usually doesn't leave her home and has no friends. But she is very smart and wants to find someone to help. Could it be that she doesn't want to listen to Qingyu's arrangements and marry me, so she took the family away?"

When Ye Minghua spoke of this possibility, his heart was very cold. He felt that he had nothing wrong with this person, he was not ugly, had a high status, and was very kind to others. As the prince of a country, there were not many women in the palace, so he could be considered a cleansing person. Why didn’t Qingxue look down on him?

"She is not stupid, but I don't believe she has such great ability. Can she ask for help and pay for a master? But in Qingyu's letter, it must be based on your own. The spy in Fengming City at that time said that someone was driving a carriage and swayingly took Qingxue's family out of Fengming City, so someone must be manipulating all this behind the scenes. The one who took action was definitely not ordinary people." Ye Zhao shook his head, not agreeing with Ye Minghua's speculation.

Ye Minghua frowned and pondered for a moment: "Qingxue has been wandering away since she was a child. After returning to Tianyuan Continent, she has no friends, but she may not have no friends in another continent."

"What do you mean? Even if she has friends there, she can't come just by wanting to come. Besides, the people over there are generally not as good as those of the masters here." Ye Zhao shook his head.

"No, there is someone who I always thinks what does it have to do with Qingxue?" Ye Minghua said thoughtfully.

"Who?" Ye Zhao asked.

"Ming Xiu." Ye Minghua said two words slowly.

Ye Zhao was stunned for a moment: "You mean, is the one who kidnapped Qingxue? "

"When Ming Xiu returned to Qisha City, I was curious whether he and Qingxue knew each other there, but they were like strangers, and there seemed to be no contact with each other." Ye Minghua said, "But the people who took Qingxue away this time not only took her parents away, but also her trusted servants, which shows that the person behind the scenes must have something to do with Qingxue, and it is really necessary to completely escape Qingxue's control. If it were the people from there, besides Mingxiu, I would never think of anyone else, and who would have such ability!"

"Minghua, what you said is not impossible, but there is no basis." Ye Zhao shook his head, "Where is Ming Cultivation? Why don't you go back to the Ming Kingdom? We don't know these."

Ye Minghua looked at the letter in his hand again and said with an ugly expression: "Are you really lucky and Qingxue?"

Ye Zhao sighed and said, "Don't think about those things! Where can a living person hide? Unless they all run there, as long as they stay in Tianyuan Continent, they will always appear! You said that your princess must marry a woman you like. I promised you that I will not force you to marry someone else now, but Qingxue still advises you not to wait. With your conditions, she rejects you because she is afraid that she has something to do with her heart."

Ye Minghua smiled bitterly: "Maybe."

"Tell me about the auction conference of the Divine Soldier City." Ye Zhao looked at Ye Minghua and said.

Ye Minghua calmed down and began to report to Ye Zhao about his previous visit to the Divine Soldier City, especially the group of very powerful young people in the City Lord's Mansion.

After hearing this, Ye Zhao nodded slightly and said, "The Divine Soldier City is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Qing Yu's trust is not to worry about her. I have never thought of forming an alliance with her. She is not trustworthy at all! But now Qing Yu is not aligned with us. I am afraid that she will win over the Tianming Kingdom again, because she will not give up the fat piece of Divine Soldier City."

"Will Ming Yufeng cooperate with Qing Yu?" Ye Minghua asked Ye Zhao.

Ye Zhao sneered: "Didn't you say that Li Yue went to Shenbing City but was humiliated and driven away? Shenbing City dared to do such a thing, I'm afraid that it really has any personal grudges with the royal family of Tianming Kingdom or Li Yue. Ming Yufeng may cooperate with Qingyu, but he may also choose to watch the fire from the other side of the river. He is very scheming!"

When Ye Zhao heard Ye Zhao say that Shenbing City had any personal grudges with Li Yue, a thought flashed in Ye Minghua's mind, but he didn't catch it. He always felt that he had missed a very important message, but he didn't understand what it was.

If Ye Minghua then put everything together and thought about it, he would think that the group of people from unknown origins in the Divine Soldier City may have come from another continent. Ye Minghua had seen it with his own eyes in Qisha City. Li Yue and Ming Xiu looked like water and fire, and Ming Xiu didn't know where he went after he disappeared from Qisha City. Combined, he could draw a conclusion that the person in charge behind the scenes of the Divine Soldier City is Ming Xiu...

However, Ye Minghua was feeling a little depressed because of Qingxue being kidnapped, and he didn't think so much about it at this moment. What's more, when he left the Divine Soldier City last month, Mu Yan congratulated him very sincerely on marrying his sweetheart. How could he think that Mu Yan was the mastermind behind the abductee of Qingxue?

"Father, the strength of the Divine Soldier City will become stronger and stronger. The trip I went there before, I felt that there was nothing that the Lord Ajiu wanted to do." Ye Minghua said to Ye Zhao.

"In short, you must be trusted and guarded." Ye Zhao said with a serious expression, "The Qingluan Kingdom and Qisha City should not be with it. Ming Yufeng can cooperate sometimes, but you must be careful. We have already paid a lot on the side of the Shenbing City and must get more benefits. This matter will be left to you."

Ye Minghua nodded: "When Chonghua gets married, I will go to Shenbing City again." As for his own marriage, he felt really uncomfortable when he saw that it was over. After all, he was always very happy after receiving the news, but he didn't expect that this would end up like this...

But Ye Minghua is the prince of a country after all, and there is nothing between him and Qingxue. It’s just that he unilaterally likes Qingxue, so his sadness means that his emotions are a bit depressed.

On the other hand, Qin Zheng calculated the day after tomorrow and could arrive at the Divine Soldier City. She was looking forward to it in her heart. What she most looked forward to was to see Duguao, because she had liked Duguao for too long, and silently missing her has become a habit that she has penetrated into her bones.

"Young Master, there is a boat coming in front of you!" Someone quickly went to report to Bai Yi.

Bai Yi went out and saw a large ship appearing in sight, and was coming towards him quickly.

"It looks like a ship from Qisha City." Bai Yi's subordinate said.
To be continued...
