Qi Lan lowered her head and replied in a low voice: "I just came back from the library. Before I could take a closer look, you came over."

Ziying stared at Qi Lan, his eyes drifting. After a while, he said, "Do you know the news of Xiang Liang's death in battle?"

Qi Lan nodded.

Ziying chuckled: "You are so calm. Are you not curious about how he is now?"

Qi Lan's hand unconsciously clenched her dress, and her expression suddenly became very unnatural. She had never mentioned Liu Ji these days, as if she didn't know this person. But the more she pretended to be nothing, the more panic she felt inside.

Lu Zhi is a woman who takes advantage of the situation. She is meticulous and well-versed in power. In the past, Qi Lan was with Liu Ji, but she still unscrupulously opposed her. Now that she suddenly left, Lu Zhi will definitely use all her skills to win Liu Ji's heart.

If you want to gain a foothold in the Xiang family, the Lu family's help is essential. Even if Liu Ji refused, he could only compromise in the face of endless wars. He had to rely on the Lu family to conquer a world.

In fact, even if Ziying didn't say it, Qi Lan understood that in the world of Han, the only one who firmly sat on the throne of queen would be the arrogant woman, and she would eventually be trampled by Lu Zhi.

Qi Lan replied lightly: "There is nothing to worry about, Aji will not die. With the Lu family here, he will only rise to the top."

Ziying looked at her deeply: "You are tactful. Now Miss Lu and Liu Ji are inseparable from each other, doing good deeds, helping refugees and sanctioning the people along the way. Everyone praised them as jade bi, deep affection, and reincarnation of gods and Buddhas."

Qi Lan's face was a little pale. Although she foresaw such a thing, hearing the facts with her own ears still made her suffer a considerable psychological blow.

Ziying sat leisurely on the chair and tidied up her clothes: "Liu Ji is not a good man. If you help me sincerely, I may be able to be compassionate and fulfill you and Han Xin. After I ascend the throne, I may be able to leave you a way out."

"No need-" Qi Lan refused firmly: "Whoever loses wins, will be determined. Although Liu Ji is not a good person, he is still much better than you."

Ziying's face darkened. Qi Lan's refusal without hesitation made him very angry. He stood up suddenly and wanted to leave angrily.

But as soon as he took two steps, he turned around and said to Qi Lan gloomy: "I will give you three days to study the contents above. If you find nothing within three days, you can wait for Han Xin to get so painful."

"Wait - three days too little--" Qi Lan was shocked and struggled to stop Ziying, but Ziying was very skilled in martial arts. Before Qi Lan could rush over, she turned around and left.

The room became quiet again, and Qi Lan stood there blankly, staring at the clothes on her hands, staring blankly.

Three days... there are only three days. If no news about the dragon vein is found, Brother Han will be poisonous and suffer unbearable pain.

Qi Lan clenched her fists hard. She hated and hurt at this moment, wishing to tear open Ziying's face, which was dressed in beasts. However, Ziying was in charge of the Chuling Pavilion and was very skilled in martial arts. She could not resist except by listening to him.

For the next three days, Qi Lan was studying the copied ancient books every day. For three days, she stayed up and held her clothes tightly, for fear of missing a word.

Unfortunately, this ancient book records the great achievements of the emperors of the Qin Dynasty, and even some of the meritorious ministers recorded in detail. Apart from this, there was no information related to the dragon vein.

Qi Lan was in a panic. Could it be that this ancient book really has nothing to do with the dragon vein? But since that is the case, why is this book placed in the secret space of the library?

Qi Lan covered her forehead with a headache. She anxiously wanted to find clues, but the clue was like a small fish in the ocean and could not catch it.

The candle was blown by the wind and shook it. Han Xin walked in with a glass of water and placed it next to Qi Lan's table.

"Okay, you have a rest." Han Xin wanted to take the clothes from her hand, but Qi Lan refused to let her go. Han Xin was an impatient person. He gently pinched Qi Lan's acupoint on Qi Lan's wrist, and Qi Lan let go of her hand.

"Oh, it hurts!" Qi Lan glared at Han Xin with resentment.

Han Xin took the clothes on her hand and threw them aside: "You, rest."

Qi Lan rubbed her hand that was pinched by Han Xin and said angrily: "I can't sleep. Ziying asked me to unravel the clues of the dragon vein within three days. I have no clue at all now. How can I sleep?"

Han Xin's face looked a little ugly. Ziying's martial arts skills were so skilled that Han Xin could not defeat him. Now that Ziying threatens Qi Lan so much, he is completely helpless.

Han Xin never hated his incompetence like today. In the past, he could protect Qi Lan behind her and protect her in a good manner, but in the face of such a powerful opponent, he could only become a weak bystander.

Qi Lan picked up the clothes and studied them again. Somehow, Han Xin felt so dazzling. Han Xin felt so hot. He even stood up suddenly, picked up the water cup on the table, and poured it on the clothes.

"Brother Han!" Qi Lan screamed in shock.

Qingshui gradually spread along the clothes, stained with black ink marks. The originally clear handwriting became blurry and could no longer be recognized. Qi Lan hurriedly wiped it with her hands, but the more she wiped it, the worse it became, and the handwriting had already turned into a pitch black ball.

"Brother Han, what are you doing!" Qi Lan was anxious and angry. The final clue was destroyed, and her only hope was lost. If Ziying knew about it, they would probably not be able to take it.

Han Xin grabbed Qi Lan's wrist without saying a word, pulled her in front of him, and looked down at her condescendingly: "Follow me and leave here."

"Leave? Where to go?"

Han Xin stared at her: "It's good to go anywhere, leave the palace and fly away."

Han Xin's sincere eyes made Qi Lan breathe. The black pupils reflected Qi Lan's surprised face. However, in just a moment, Qi Lan returned to peace. She also wanted to leave this lifeless palace as soon as possible, but what should she do with the poison in Han Xin's body?

Qi Lan must not tell Han Xin about this. She had to make up her mind and push Han Xin away, breaking away from his tightly squeezed hand.

"No, I can't leave." Qi Lan picked up her clothes again: "I want to find clues to the dragon vein."

"Why?" Han Xin didn't give up and asked tightly.

Qi Lan was silent. She could not tell Han Xin the truth, nor did she want to lie. Han Xin's question was unable to answer for a while.

After a long time, Han Xin's voice came from behind her. The voice was very small, completely different from his usual cold tone: "For... Liu Ji, do you want to help him destroy the dragon vein, right?"
