The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

This is not how Jiang Chuan feels right now.

Although he did come to the palace many times, no one noticed.

That's how it is in the original work.

In the original novel, countless people, including Han Fei, Wei Zhuang, Yan Ling Ji, Tian Ze, and Bai Yi Fei, secretly infiltrated the royal palace and then calmly retreated. Moreover, for most of the time, the royal guards in the Han royal palace seemed to be dead, discovering nothing.

Jiang Chuan did not know whether the Imperial Guards were dead or not.

However, he knew for certain that these imperial guards alone could not protect the safety of the King of Han.

This also illustrates South Korea's weakness from another perspective.

South Korea has no army capable of fighting.

No wonder the Qin state conquered the Han state so easily in history.

All of this was foreshadowed.

They arrived at Lady Mingzhu's palace once again.

Jiang Chuan has been here countless times. Coming here feels like coming home; he's extremely familiar with it.

Coincidentally, when he arrived here tonight, the King of Han was sleeping here.

This is not surprising. Lady Mingzhu was a concubine whom King Han greatly favored. It would be a problem if King Han did not come to Lady Mingzhu's residence to sleep, as that would mean that Lady Mingzhu had lost his favor.

It seems that he trusted Madam Mingzhu and didn't want others to overhear their intimate moments.

When Jiang Chuan arrived, he did not see any imperial guards at the entrance of Lady Mingzhu's palace.

When he stepped into Lady Mingzhu's bedroom.

The King of Han had already fallen asleep on his bed, with the smoke of burning incense lingering around him—a special incense concocted by Lady Mingzhu.

Through a combination of intoxicating fragrance and illusion magic, Lady Mingzhu could make the King of Han have a beautiful dream. Over the years, she had used this method to deceive the King of Han, making him mistakenly believe that he had engaged in some pleasurable activities with her.

In reality, she remained chaste, while the King of Han was simply indulging in erotic fantasies.

"Cousin, if you keep acting like this, aren't you afraid that one day the King of Han will discover something amiss?"

Jiang Chuan, using a high-pitched, deliberately hoarse voice, spoke to Lady Mingzhu, who was standing guard beside King Han.

Upon hearing the sound, Madam Mingzhu turned her head to look, her pupils immediately contracted, and her expression changed drastically.

Chapter 133 The Vicious Bad Woman

"Cousin?"

After seeing the appearance of the newcomer, Madam Mingzhu panicked.

Because the face that came into her view was none other than her cousin, Bai Yifei.

She looks exactly like her cousin.

However, it was precisely because the visitor was her cousin that she was shocked and terrified.

Because if I remember correctly, my cousin is already dead.

She also concocted a corpse-dissolving potion, which dissolved the entire body.

But now her cousin has appeared in front of her, in the dead of night.

Could it be my cousin's ghost seeking revenge?

In the past, Madam Mingzhu did not believe in ghosts, but now, she couldn't help but believe them to some extent.

"Cousin, your death has nothing to do with me."

"If you want to take my life, don't come looking for me."

Madam Mingzhu hurriedly spoke to the figure in front of her, eager to clear herself of any involvement in the death of her cousin Bai Yifei.

Upon hearing this, "Bai Yifei" on the other side said coldly, "Although you didn't kill me, you destroyed my body, didn't you, cousin? I didn't realize you could be so ruthless."

"I..." Madam Mingzhu wanted to explain further.

Suddenly, she noticed something amiss.

That is, the cousin who came here actually has a shadow.

Under the lamplight in the palace, the other person's shadow stretched very long.

Although Madam Mingzhu did not believe in ghosts and gods in the past, she had studied Gu magic after all. Gu magic is a kind of witchcraft, so she had some understanding of ghosts and gods.

At least in legends, ghosts and the like don't exist in the traditional sense.

"You're not my cousin, so who are you?"

Realizing that the person before her was human and not a ghost, Madam Mingzhu immediately mustered her courage and asked the visitor in a cold voice.

"Don't you even recognize me?" Seeing that Madam Mingzhu had noticed something amiss, Jiang Chuan simply stopped pretending and spoke in his natural voice.

When Madam Mingzhu heard the familiar voice, she was taken aback, and then she realized who was in front of her.

"It's you?"

She looked surprised.

"How could you?"

Jiang Chuan knew what Madam Mingzhu was thinking and asked, "Are you trying to say why I came here looking like this?"

Madam Mingzhu nodded.

"Although Bai Yifei is dead, his legacy still exists in Snow Robe Fortress. I'm thinking about whether we can find a way to get our hands on his legacy. Besides, only a few of us know that he is dead."

"Perhaps, we can also make use of the identity of the Blood-Clad Marquis."

"So, you thought of disguising yourself as my cousin?" Madam Mingzhu immediately understood Jiang Chuan's intention.

Jiang Chuan said, "Unfortunately, you still saw through my disguise in the end. It seems that my disguise technique is still a bit difficult to impersonate Bai Yifei and deceive others."

Madam Mingzhu's face showed a complicated expression, and she hesitated before speaking, "Actually, I didn't see through your disguise."

"Hmm?" Jiang Chuan asked, puzzled.

Madam Mingzhu explained, "When you came here before, I really thought it was my cousin's ghost."

"Then how did you find out I'm not your cousin?" Jiang Chuan asked again.

“The shadow is your shadow. Ghosts shouldn’t have shadows,” Madam Mingzhu continued.

Jiang Chuan then understood the reason.

Madam Mingzhu carefully examined Jiang Chuan again, looking him up and down. If it weren't for the fact that the voice was Jiang Chuan's, she would have really thought that the person in front of her was her cousin. She couldn't help but praise, "What an exquisite disguise! If your voice hadn't remained unchanged, I would have thought that it was my cousin standing in front of me."

"I never knew you had this skill."

Jiang Chuan replied, "I just learned it."

These words startled Madam Mingzhu once again.

She had assumed that Jiang Chuan had studied disguise techniques for many years to achieve such skill.

However, Jiang Chuan told her that he had only been learning it for a short time.

This is just too outrageous!

Then, Madam Mingzhu thought of how Jiang Chuan had learned Gu techniques from her and inexplicably acquired the same physique as her. There were indeed many mysteries surrounding Jiang Chuan.

"By the way, where did Nongyu go?" Jiang Chuan suddenly shifted his attention and asked Madam Mingzhu about something.

"Tonight, the King of Han came to retire for the night, and I asked her to temporarily leave," Lady Mingzhu replied to Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan nodded.

Lady Mingzhu was a very clever person; otherwise, she would not have been able to win in the palace intrigue and become the most favored concubine of the King of Han. She looked at E Jiangchuan, who was still disguised as his cousin Bai Yifei, and said, "Your disguise skills have reached a level of lifelikeness. Even I cannot see through your disguise as your cousin, but you still came here."

"Let me guess what your purpose is."

A bright smile appeared on her lips.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "You want to know about my cousin from me?"

"Yes." Jiang Chuan did not hide anything and readily admitted it, even praising Madam Mingzhu, "Madam is truly intelligent."

Madam Mingzhu smiled, a smile of self-satisfaction.

Jiang Chuan said, "I don't have much contact with Bai Yifei. Although I can disguise myself as him, I don't know him very well, so I will inevitably reveal some flaws in my behavior."

“You are his cousin. You have been by his side since you were very young. Although he has kept your relationship a secret from others, you are still a very close person to him and someone who understands him exceptionally well.”

Madam Mingzhu said softly, "I can tell you about my cousin, but I have a request."

"any request?"

"That is, after you enter Snowcloth Castle as my cousin and inherit my cousin's estate, I want a portion of it," Madam Mingzhu stated her demand. "No, I should say that it should have been mine all along."

“I am my cousin’s only relative. He is now dead, so it is only natural that I inherit some of his estate.”

If it were a normal person, there would be no problem with saying such a thing.
