To know a word is to works

Starting from 655

    

e didn't want to make public and needed us to resolve it privately.When I attend meetings, it's difficult for me to focus my attention. Instead, I forget to be nervous. When it's my turn to speak, I...I turned to Meng Shu and said, “This ghost had some connection with me in life. Would it be alright if I spoke to him alone for a few words”

Meng Shu's eyes widened. "Alone! No, no! What if something happens suddenly How about this: we lock him in the Bamboo Grove first. Your Highness, you go talk to him, and we ensure he doesn't touch you. Otherwise, it would be our failure..."

I nodded, just the chance to ask him alone could tell me things I couldn't see.

When I first met Situ Lin, my brother and I were still novices, reckless and unskilled. Our magical powers weren't strong either, and at that time, there was a rift between me and Jiang Qiyun because of our child.

Many things happen out of my sight, like Mu Yunliang's death.

He was skinned and his soul forcibly extracted and refined. His flesh became a human skin scarecrow, used as a tool by Situ Lin, while the other half of his soul transformed into a bloodthirsty monster.

Sipu Lin, also known as Lao Xie Dao, played with living souls in the palm of his hand. Although his years of planning ultimately failed, there were still many disciples from the Sipu family involved who remained oblivious to the truth.

These disciples didn't know Lao Xie Dao's life history and his plans, so they foolishly became cannon fodder.

But in Lin Yanhuan's eyes, these people were a danger. The safest way was to eradicate the Si family completely, leaving no future troubles.

“I don’t know what happened either… ever since our master lost consciousness and went to the hospital, and the young master disappeared mysteriously, all the disciples of the Situ family became wanted criminals overnight! We are hunted down with nowhere to hide, yet we don’t even know what we did wrong!” This ghost cried tearfully.

The disciples of the Situ family all had some cultivation. Though he had become a new soul, his thinking and logic were still clear.

He spoke earnestly: "Miss Mu, we were just following orders back then, and we didn't do anything that was harmful. Why would we be assassinated The ghost officer who arrested me even said I would be imprisoned in the Twenty-Four Hells... Please show mercy, Miss Mu, and spare me!"

You were so convincing, I almost believed you.

But Jiang Qiyun said, don't believe what ghosts say.

When a person dies, their three souls leave the body and their seven spirits dissipate. Without the three souls and seven spirits, there would be no seven emotions and six desires. Therefore, a complicated-minded ghost is basically a cunning trickster.

“You said you were innocent... You were the one guarding Mu Yunliang, weren't you You were watching outside when he was skinned alive While you might not be the main culprit, your 'accomplice' crimes are cruel and vicious. Do you still dare to beg for mercy” I said with a frown.

"But I'm only following orders!"

"Don't try to argue. As a sane person, you should be able to distinguish right from wrong. Haven't you heard the saying 'to be an accomplice of a tiger' The final outcome is always reaping what you sow."

He opened and closed his mouth nervously, as if racking his brains for an excuse.

"I, I have news about a very important person! Can I say it to get myself off the hook!" He shouted at me anxiously.

"That depends on the value of what you have to say." I told him frankly.

He nodded frantically. "Yes, yes! There must be! I was going to keep this secret and report it to the people who tried to assassinate me, but when I was running away, I got into a car accident... I know something important about someone!"

I nodded. "Okay, tell me what you have. I'll decide if it's worth asking for you."

Meng Shu stood at the edge of the bamboo forest, watching me approach with a gloomy face. She stuck out her tongue and said, "Little Empress, you really amaze me."

"Hmm"

"Now you speak and act with such dignity!"

I was just scaring him, that's why I pretended to be fierce. I don't have any dignity at all! I'm more like a plaything for your Emperor, who can squeeze and flatten me as he pleases.

However, this fellow did truly remind me of one almost forgotten piece of important information.

I lowered my head and hurried back, just as I came down from the Nai He Bridge, I bumped into a hard chest.

"...."

“...”

I looked up, and Jiang Qiyun stood before me with his hands on his hips, a faint smile playing on his lips, as if waiting for me to run into his arms.

"What are you doing standing here" I asked.

"I'm here to pick you up. Do you want to climb Yinjing Tian Palace by yourself And cry your way up"

He pulled me by the hand into a sea of flowers, crimson as blood.

"Qi Yun." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Huh"

Those who participated in plotting against me, you still shouldn't punish them individually…

Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly and turned back to me, "Why"

"... it would make people think you're playing favorites, wouldn't it ... What if that became your karmic burden"

Jiang Qiyun sneered: “It’s one thing for them to scheme against you, and another to scheme against the son of God. Even if I don’t punish them, those old men would still instruct me to reward good and punish evil. Protecting and helping mortals who aid the son of God will bring them fortune, longevity, and happiness. Conversely, those who plot against him will also be punished accordingly. This is the righteous path, not a personal vendetta on my part.”

He hesitated for a moment, letting out a dismissive snort: “If it weren’t for my divine position, I would have wiped these people out long ago!”

"Well, the Purple Emperor must have intentionally put you under some constraints. Otherwise, you'd be just like Jie, doing things entirely on a whim. If you're not in the mood, you cause trouble, and if you catch someone, you just start a fight." I said with a smile.

Jiang Qiyun said faintly, "Don't change the subject. What did you go to Wu Wangtai for"

“…Qiyē said the wine at Wàngtái is very good, even if I can’t drink it, it would be nice to smell it… Then I met a former disciple of the Sītú family. He pleaded with me and told me some important things.”

"What's wrong" Jiang Qiyun looked at me.

"Could there be another important fish that slipped through the net in the Si family I vaguely heard about it once, but afterwards things became chaotic and I overlooked it."

“......”

“But you and Lin Yanhuan have been investigating from all sides. You two must have discussed this person during your private meetings. Now that the investigation has come to a dead end, Lin Yanhuan refuses to allow a ticking time bomb to exist. So he decided to eliminate them all at once, sending these ghosts to the underworld. The underworld has plenty of ways to get them talking, right”

Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at me: "… Bai Wu Chang is using you to persuade me"

"Seven Lords wouldn't harm you... I think these mortals don't feel a thing. Lin Yanhuan shouldn't increase his sins for these mortals, and you don't need to punish these ghosts specially."

Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly, as if she found me a little too involved.

"Qiyun, even without divine status, you can no longer be carefree and unrestrained..."

Why

I patted my flat belly, which wasn't even a little bit round: "You're going to be a dad again! You have more responsibility now. Where is there freedom From now on, you also need to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, so that your child can be blessed."

He chuckled lightly and pulled me along.

"...Alright, as you wish."wner who released the harmful Gu, his target should have been Teacher Ou, but by accident, he put it on Teacher Ou's mother instead.I nodded and said, "Master Yunfan, what you said makes sense. I feel...
