Chapter 371 It's Time to Eradicate the Blood of Yan He

Then, Aunt Ping glanced at Runyu, who was sitting at the door. She walked straight to him, had a look, and then left.

Not unexpectedly, no wonder that guy liked this infanta. She must be something. Even Ghost Immortal escorted her to Beiling in person.

After Aunt Ping had left, Yingnuo walked up to Pei Moning and Jiang Wei and said to them, "This is Aunt Ping."

"Aunt Ping? Are you sure? She looks too young!" Pei Moning asked Yingnuo straightforwardly.

Yingnuo smiled and did not answer him. She said, "It's getting late. You may go to rest."

Then, she walked outside.

After Yingnuo had left, Pei Moning and Jiang Wei quickly went upstairs.

Runyu also stood up and followed them.

When they got to Yang Zijin's room, Pei Moning opened the door and went in first.

He went up to Yang Zijin and sat in front of her. Then, he asked, "Are you OK? Did that Aunt Ping embarrass you?"

"No." Yang Zijin shook her head.

As soon as Yang Zijin finished her words, Jiang Wei asked, "Your Ladyship... What did Aunt Ping tell you?"

"She said she could help us escape from the monitoring of Yan Ji's spies." Yang Zijin said with a deep gaze.

Her mind was still filled with Aunt Ping's words that she said when she left.

Now there must be Yan Ji's spies left around Snowy House.

They had no chance to get away and prepare for the future. Even if they could find some ways, they would also be seen to get on the carriage by the spies personally when those spies were sent to deliver something tomorrow morning.

It was also impractical to go directly to find her aunt. It must cause more trouble as they might have to reveal her aunt's secret.

Was this Aunt Ping credible? Who was "that guy" in her words?

When Yang Zijin was thinking about this, Pei Moning sat in front of Yang Zijin and asked, "Aunt Ping will help us? Do you know each other?"

"No, we don't." Yang Zijin shook her head.

Hearing this, Pei Moning frowned tightly, "You don't? Then, why will she help us?"

"I don't know." Yang Zijin shook her head again.

Pei Moning continued, "Since you do not know each other, why will she help us? There must be some reasons."

"No reason. But now we have no choice but to trust her. Now there must be many spies of Beiling Emperor around Snowy House monitoring us. Plus, Beiling Emperor asks someone to deliver us some stuff with the real intention of seeing us off rather than just delivering the stuff." Yang Zijin said.

Pei Moning pounded the table and spoke loudly, "We can kill all the spies if they do show up tomorrow. We are not afraid of them!"

Yang Zijin hove a sigh and said, "We can't. My aunt has hidden in Jing City for years without being perceived by Yan Ji. If we kill his spies in the meantime, it would be equivalent to revealing that we come to Beiling with other purposes. I'm afraid that Beiling Emperor will strengthen his investigation and seek our whereabouts as long as we have some actions. At that time, it will not be worth it if Yan Ji finds my aunt is in connection with us by following us."

Hearing that, Pei Moning clapped his hands and sat down. He looked at Yang Zijin and said, "Since this way won't work, you truly think that Aunt Ping credible?"

Yang Zijin looked down and nodded, "Yes. I think we can have a try."

Hearing that, Pei Moning stood up and said, "Then, we'd listen to you. It's late now. Early rest."

"OK." Yang Zijin nodded slightly.

Then, Pei Moning and Runyu got out of the room.

After they had left, Jiang Wei walked up and said, "Your Ladyship, I saw that Aunt Ping downstairs just now. She's not an ordinary person."

Yang Zijin sighed heavily and said, "I see. She seemed to know our track all the time."

It was uncomfortable to be seen through by others. It seemed that she was spied and controlled, like a moppet.

What was Aunt Ping’s background? Why did she know so much about her? Who was "that guy"? According to Aunt Ping’s reaction, Yang Zijin even saw a little tender love for "that guy" in Aunt Ping's eyes.

Thinking of this, she became more confused.

Then, she gave up thinking about this. As long as Aunt Ping was not hostile, this matter was not that important. What was the most urgent was to meet Yan Luo.

As long as Aunt Ping could help her, she could check her background later.

Thinking of this, Yang Zijin stood up and said to Jiang Wei, "You can go and rest. Let's talk about this tomorrow morning."

Hearing Yang Zijin's words, Jiang Wei nodded even if she wanted to say something else. She said, "Your Ladyship, please sleep earlier, too."

Then, Jiang Wei walked out and closed the door.

After Jiang Wei had left, Yang Zijin walked up to the bed and lay down.

As tomorrow was unpredictable, just let nature take its course. Now, she would like to have a comfortable sleep to gain enough energy for any emergency tomorrow.

She did not rest well the last two days in the Palace, so she fell asleep not long after lying down.

At this time, Yan Ji went back to his palace after the dinner banquet.

Lying on the bed, he was thinking of Yang Zijin's words on the banquet. He thought that maybe he worried too much as her two men did not have any actions.

Then, he would let this Infanta Qingcheng go for the time being. He would like to prepare some stuff and ask someone to send it to Snowy House and follow that group of people to see them out of Beiling tomorrow morning.

After all, if some accidents happened to Infanta Qingcheng on her way, he, together with Beiling, would be the biggest suspect.

Thinking of this, Yan Ji lay down on the bed.

Late at night, Yan Ji was covered with sweat on his forehead, and his eyelids moved as if he had been having an extremely scary dream.

In his dream, Yan Ji was reading a memorial when he saw someone coming in with a sword.

Perceiving the unusual situation, Yan Ji cried out. But it seemed that all the people outside did not hear him.

At this time, he saw that blood flowed from the door and found that all the people outside had died.

That person was getting closer and closer to him, and he saw blood dripping from the sword in the person's hand.

That person walked up to him and stopped, making Yan Ji step backward. However, with he taking a step back, that person took a step forward.

Finally, he retreated to the corner and sat on the ground in fright. He looked at the woman in panic, finding that she had a veil on her face. The more he tried to see her face clearly, the more blurred it became.

That woman was approaching, and he was not able to fight against her. The woman put her sword on his neck and sneered, "After sitting on the throne for so many years, now it's time for you to return it."

When her voice had hardly faded away, she cut his neck with the sword. Then, he bled out.

Yan Ji covered his neck with his hand. He struggled to get up with strength coming from nowhere and lifted that woman's veil.

He saw that woman's appearance and said with difficulty, "It’s you, indeed."

Seeing this, that woman lifted her sword again and stabbed it right at his heart.

At this time, Yan Ji woke up suddenly, uttered a cry, and sat up in bed.

He breathed heavily with his body soaked with sweat. And beads of sweat ran down from his forehead.

Zhan Qi, Yan Ji's personal guard, heard the voice outside. He pushed the door and entered directly, "Your Majesty, what happened?"

Coming into the room and seeing Yan Ji sitting in the bed, Zhan Qi felt a little reassured.

Thinking of that woman's sword he dreamt of just now, Yan Ji closed his eyes and said, "It's time to eradicate the blood of Yan He!"

Hearing this, Zhan Qi frowned and said, "Your Majesty, this..."

He was confused by this. Everything was fine after the dinner as His Majesty only asked him to see Infanta Qingcheng out of Beiling. Why did he change his mind suddenly?

Before he could finish his words, Yan Ji opened his eyes and shouted at Zhan Qi, "Follow my words! What are you waiting for?!"

Seeing that Yan Ji was getting angry, Zhan Qi quickly said with his hands arched, "Yes, Your Majesty." Then, he asked, "When should I take action?"

At this time, Yan Ji's eyes were filled with homicidal intent. He gritted his teeth and said, "Kill them when the opportunity is right."

"OK. I'll go and plan for it." Zhan Qi replied to Yan Ji and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Yan Ji said with a profound gaze at the front.

Hearing Yan Ji's voice, Zhan Qi stopped and turned back. "Your Majesty, any other orders?" He asked, arching his hands.

Yan Ji beckoned to him, asking him to come over.

Then, Zhan Qi walked up to Yan Ji's bed, and Yan Ji whispered something to him.

Hearing his words, Zhan Qi nodded and said with his hands arched, "Your Majesty, please don't worry. I'll make all the matters settled."

"Go." Yan Ji said, waving his hands.

Then, Zhan Qi backed off.

After Zhan Qi had gone out, Yan Ji closed his eyes and thought about his dream. It seemed to be so real.

Previously, every time he dreamed of some women coming to kill him, he failed to see their appearance clearly.

However, in this dream, he lifted that woman's veil and found that woman was the double of Infanta Qingcheng.

He could not hesitate as the fright in the dream was so real. He did not want to have it again. The only way was to kill her, completely eradicating the blood of Yan He. Therefore, he would not have to wake up from nightmares in the future.

Infanta Qingcheng must die!

He also asked Zhan Qi to send a big "gift" for her, just in case.

Thinking of this, Yan Ji got out of the bed and opened the window. Instantly, he felt a current of cool air blowing in his face.

Now, every time he closed his eyes, he could see the scene where he suffered the attack. Then, he wanted those cold winds to make him sober.

The next early morning, Yang Zijin woke up and got up after a stretch.

Then, she walked to the window, opened it, and looked outside.

Seeing that Yan Ji's men had already been waiting below, Yang Zijin sneered and closed the window.
