Grudge Breaker

Chapter 242 Dark Sea Tide Rising
"Lord Yuheng, Lord Sichen, could you please move aside for a moment? Weiwei and I get along very well and I want to have a few personal words with him."

Qin Xueying did not directly answer Song Weichen's question, but instead asked the other two to step aside.

"This……"

Mo Tingfeng hesitated a little, and he also noticed Qin Xueying's strange behavior. Just as he was about to say that he wanted to stay, Song Weichen shook his head at him and pointed at the door of the hall. Mo Tingfeng had no choice but to leave the marrow washing hall with Zhuang Yuheng.

Qin Xueying then dismissed all the maids in the palace, and this solemnity made Song Weichen uneasy.

What on earth did she smell? .
After everyone had left, Qin Xueying waved her sleeves, and a white breeze carrying magical power blew up in the hall, seeming to cleanse the entire air.

"Weiwei, let me smell it carefully again."

"Huh? Oh..."

Song Weichen reluctantly moved closer - the dignified Princess of Meijie was sniffing at her left and right like a drug-sniffing dog at the airport. The atmosphere was really weird.

……

"Have you been to the far north of Huangquan recently?"

Qin Xueying's unreasonable words made Song Weichen stunned.

"No, Xueying, why do you ask this?"

She moved closer to Song Weichen again and sniffed him, with a scrutinizing and questioning look on her face. She suddenly waved her sleeves, and her expression even contained a hint of undisguised disgust.

"Impossible, the smell on you means you've definitely been there!"

Song Weichen was completely confused, but because of Qin Xueying's identity he could only complain in his heart.

Tsk, why is her expression exactly the same as that of the fierce wife who captured her husband and went to fool around in Yihong Courtyard...

"I swear I've never been there, but I'm really curious about what it would be like if I had been there? And...can you quietly ask me what I smell like?"

Qin Xueying looked Song Weichen up and down, her eyes like thorns, making people feel extremely uncomfortable, but she couldn't leave, and the atmosphere in the hall became solemn for a moment.

After a long time, Qin Xueying sighed, stopped sniffing and examining, and leaned back and closed her eyes.

"You carry the aura of death from the Far North. Only people who have done extremely evil things have this aura. I thought you were kind-hearted, but now it seems that it was too early to draw that conclusion!"

……

"I'm tired, you can go back."

"not me……"

Song Weichen was speechless for a moment. She was caught off guard by Qin Xueying's sudden change of attitude.

What breath of death?
Today was really unlucky. From Li Qingshui to Qin Xueying, their words either implied that someone was plotting to kill her, or that she was carrying the spirit of death... Song Weichen really wanted to send each of them an emoticon of Mickey Mouse pulling his ears and saying "I heard it! Both ears heard it!"

Then he boasted to them, "Guess what, I still have the mark of my past life, Dort, on me. Are you surprised or shocked?"

I was complaining in my heart when suddenly an idea flashed through my mind!
and many more!

She might know what Qin Xueying meant by "dead air".

Could it be that she sensed the aura of the Death Curse on her body? That thing was extremely sinister and evil, so it was not surprising that it caused her to react like this.

But if it was really caused by this evil magic, she might not be able to explain it in detail to Qin Xueying now - she and Mo Tingfeng had deliberately concealed the matter of the corpse mask and the curse of death from Zhuang Yuheng, not wanting him to be affected by this sudden mask storm.

If he told Qin Xueying now that he was cursed to death, it would very likely cause the incident of Zhuang Yuheng's transformation into a demon to be brought up again because of the exposure of the mask - and this would be between the Supreme God and the royal family, which would be completely detrimental to Zhuang Yuheng!
Thinking of this, Song Weichen stood up and bowed to Qin Xueying, who still had her eyes half closed, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Princess, time will tell. Some things are inconvenient to talk about in detail now. After some time, when my personal affairs are settled, I will tell you in detail the whole story of the death aura on my body."

"I may not have a good business ability, but if you ask yourself, I have never done anything wrong in my life. You may want to observe me for a while before making a conclusion about my character."

"I will take my leave. I hope the princess will recover soon."

Hearing the footsteps of Song Weichen's departure, Qin Xueying, who had originally half-closed her eyes, opened them wide and stared at her back, while her hand on the brocade quilt unconsciously pinched a corner of the quilt, and her knuckles turned white due to the force.

"What I hate most in my life is hypocritical people like you who are sweet-mouthed but treacherous. I can't go into details now... I think you are making excuses because you can't find an excuse for the time being!"

"My father valued you so much because of the case of the ghost husband, and asked me to take the initiative to befriend you. Humph! I will expose your ugly face sooner or later!"

Qin Xueying was thinking angrily, and when she saw her personal maid Xia Bing peeking at the door, she waved for her to come in.

"Who did the White Robe Reverend come to see just now? Did you see clearly?"

"Replying to the Princess, the person who was having a pleasant conversation with His Excellency was none other than the woman that Mr. Shu arranged to deliver the medicine, Li Qingshui."

"is her?"

Qin Xueying raised her eyebrows and then smiled.

"Write a thank you letter to Mr. Shu for me, saying that the people in his house are capable and that the girl who came here is very much my favorite, so please come over often."
.
"What did the princess say to you in private?"

Mo Tingfeng and Zhuang Yuheng were waiting outside the palace. When they saw Song Weichen coming out, they hurried over, looking worried. "Hey, nothing."

Song Weichen pretended nothing happened and left with Mo Tingfeng.

"Boss Mo, let's go. I want to go back and take a shower."

"and many more."

Zhuang Yuheng quickly stepped aside to block the way and glanced at the door of the Marrow Cleansing Hall.

"Let's talk somewhere else, let's go to the medicine room."

After he finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash, pulling Song Weichen with him, and Mo Tingfeng also disappeared.

The three of them appeared in the Sikong Mansion's pharmacy at the same time. Zhuang Yuheng waved his hand to set up a sound barrier, and then he looked at Song Weichen carefully again.

"You don't look very well. What did the princess say to you? Don't force me to ask her myself."

"Oh, I'm telling you..."

Song Weichen glanced at Zhuang Yuheng, walked to his cupboards filled with various medicinal herbs, looked left and right, with a look of indifference on his face.

"I was embarrassed to say it, but you insisted on digging to the bottom of it - Xueying said that I smelled strongly of farts, and she was embarrassed to say it directly in front of so many people, so she asked you to temporarily avoid it and tell it in private. That's all."

"Fart, fart smell?"

Zhuang Yuheng never expected this answer. His CPU was nearly paralyzed for the second time. He imitated Qin Xueying and pulled Song Weichen over, sniffing her body carefully, with a look of suspicion on his face.

"No...it smells pretty good."

"I guess it's gone by now. Didn't I just chat with that little beauty with Xiao Biezhi? In order to find out the gold content, I persuaded the little meatball to use some unconventional means. I guess I was also marinated by its nitrogen and carbon dioxide at that time."

"Oh, right! Let's get down to business. That little beauty is Li Qingshui!"

Song Weichen took the blame on the fat guinea pig and made up stories for a long time, and finally found a reasonable reason to divert Zhuang Yuheng's attention.

"Li Qingshui?" Mo Tingfeng frowned, "The fourth daughter of the non-existent governor of Danxia Town?"

"Yes, it's her!"

Song Weichen told the two of them the entire content of the conversation. Mo Tingfeng's expression was unclear, but Zhuang Yuheng frowned repeatedly as he listened.

She suddenly appeared and disappeared in the ghost market, but appeared again in Qin Xueying's temporary palace in Sikong Mansion, and she bluntly revealed Song Weichen's dual identity right away. Who is she?
"She is the female relative that Boss Shu arranged to deliver the medicine. The visiting card she carried was written by Shu Tinglong himself. The medicinal materials in the brocade box are also fine. I personally checked them before letting her into the palace. Could it be that... her identity is fake?"

"Boss Shu's female relatives?"

Song Weichen was stunned. This was new information, but Li Qingshui didn't mention it at all. Oh, it seemed like he didn't ask at all...

Could it be that she is from Wangyue Tower?
What was going on? Song Weichen felt that his cerebral cortex was gradually becoming smoother.

……

"Her identity may not be false," Mo Tingfeng groaned for a moment, "I'll be back soon."

As he spoke, he disappeared. Song Weichen and Zhuang Yuheng stared at each other, not knowing what he was doing. However, after a cup of tea, Mo Tingfeng appeared again.

"It's confirmed. This woman's identity is true. She is indeed related to Shu Qilong."

A moment after leaving, Mo Tingfeng returned to the Xisui Hall. For the sake of beauty, some paths in that area were paved with fine white sea sand, and walking on them would leave footprints.

Mo Tingfeng remembered the direction that Song Weichen and Li Qingshui took when they had a private chat. That area happened to be a small sea sand path. When he turned back, the footprints of the two were clearly visible.

The row of footprints in the middle were exactly the same in size and depth as the footprints outside the window of the private room in Wangyue Tower. Moreover, the special indentations on the soles of the feet, which looked a little blurry at the time, were particularly clear on the sea sand in front of them. They were a five-petal flower - there was no doubt that this Li Qingshui was the person who eavesdropped outside the private room that day!

Many fragments of information began to gradually piece together into the answer in Mo Tingfeng's mind.

"Let me smooth it out for you."

"First, Li Qingshui can freely enter and exit the ghost market dungeon; second, the mask that Shu Xinglong gave Yuheng was the mask of the great master Suzaku; third, Li Qingshui must have a close relationship with Shu Xinglong - Weiwei and I just went to Wangyue Tower yesterday, and the person who eavesdropped outside the private room was her, and because of this, she knew that Weiwei was Sang Pu."

"Through these pieces of information, we can at least confirm that Shu Tinglong is deeply involved in the Ghost Market. It doesn't mean he is the boss, but he is definitely someone who can talk directly to the big boss. It is even possible that he has some say over the boss."

“No matter whether Shu Tinglong has any direct connection with Weiwei being abducted to the ghost market, at least now it seems that he is the most suspicious, and he is even connected with the forces behind the ghost husband case, Nian Niang case, and even the white robe disappearance case!”

“He is definitely a key to solving the problem.”

"It's just that... the wife of a wealthy businessman can be easily allowed to enter the princess's temporary palace. It's hard to say that the power behind Shu Long has no connection with the Qin family. If this is true, we must be extremely cautious in touching him. We must have sufficient evidence and certainty."

……

After listening to Mo Tingfeng's analysis, the two were silent for a while.

Indeed, there are too many suspicious points about this business tycoon who suddenly emerged.

...Not to mention that he has a face exactly like Gu Cangyue's.
