The Qin Dynasty: The Most Ruthless Prince, Lady Mingzhu Begs for Mercy

"Your Highness, shall we get out of the carriage and take a look?"

Ying Changqing held Yan Fei's hand and gently kissed the back of her hand: "No need, let's keep going."

The carriage headed towards Mount Taiyi.

The fact that Nangong Pushe is here indicates that she will definitely participate in the Covenant between Heaven and Man.

Ying Changqing was not in a hurry, because the covenant between heaven and man would not begin for another three days, and not all the members of the Hundred Families had arrived yet.

Three days is enough for him to arrange everything.

"Your Highness, there are still people watching."

Yan Fei glanced at Jing Ni, who was sitting on the other side of Ying Changqing.

Yan Fei was a little shy and tried to pull her hand away from Ying Changqing's.

Ying Changqing said, "Don't worry, Yu'er is not an outsider. You should treat each other like sisters from now on."

"The fish is already pregnant. When you are pregnant, you can ask her if you have any questions."

Yan Fei blushed upon hearing this, her face turning red all the way to her ears.

"Your Highness~"

Ying Changqing smiled and hugged her.

Jingni watched with a smile.

In that era, it was normal for men to have multiple wives, especially someone of Ying Changqing's high status.

Therefore, Yanfei didn't mind at all when she found out that Jingni was pregnant.

The two women were riding in the same car, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

……

At this moment, on the second floor of the inn.

Yaoyue and Lianxing watched Ying Changqing's carriage drive away before turning their attention away.

"Sister, he is a prince of the Great Qin Empire, and he will have many wives and concubines in the future."

"But you said you didn't want to share a husband with someone else, so sister, you'd better not..."

Lianxing's words immediately turned Yaoyue's face cold.

But when she thought of Ying Changqing's handsome appearance, she wavered again.

She lowered her eyes, watching Lianxing warily across from her.

"I did say that, but you didn't?"

"You're reminding me, are you also captivated by him, and do you want to marry him too?"

Lianxing trembled slightly and whispered, "My sister didn't have that thought, it's just that his identity dictates..."

"Alright, that's enough!"

Inviting Moon interrupted Lianxing and looked in the direction where Ying Changqing's carriage had left.

Her eyes were deep, but they were definitely not giving up.

Lianxing sighed softly.

She knew her sister had a strong personality and would never easily give up what she set her sights on.

She was trying to figure out a way to get Ying Changqing to give up his marriage for her, so that her sister wouldn't have other women sharing her husband.

But Lianxing was very clear-headed and knew that this was simply impossible.

Ying Changqing was a prince of the Qin Empire, and his status meant that his sister could not force him to do anything.

……

Yicheng is very close to Taiyi Mountain.

After passing through Yicheng, Ying Changqing quickly arrived at Taiyi Mountain.

Taiyi Mountain is crowded with people now, there are people everywhere.

The Taoists sent many disciples to maintain order.

The number of invitations from Taoists is limited.

Most of the people who came were martial arts practitioners who hadn't received invitations but wanted to see masters compete.

The Taoists did not stop these people from coming in.

Once it's confirmed that the other party is not a bad person, they can be allowed to go up the mountain, but no accommodation has been prepared for them on the mountain.

The arrival of Ying Changqing's carriage immediately caused a commotion.

Everyone voluntarily made way for Ying Changqing.

Because of such a magnificent carriage, the person inside must be very rich or of high status, someone that ordinary people like them in the martial arts world can't afford to offend.

"Your Highness, we have arrived at Mount Taiyi."

The driver said from outside the carriage.

Yan Fei hurriedly pushed away Ying Changqing, who was kissing her.

"Your Highness... I represent the Yin-Yang School and cannot lose my composure in front of the Taoists."

Seeing Yan Fei panting, Ying Changqing picked up a silk handkerchief and gently wiped the drool from her mouth.

"Don't worry, I won't let you lose face in front of others."

Yan Fei looked at the gentle Ying Changqing, her eyes filled with emotion.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"You're welcome."

After confirming that Yan Fei's lips were normal, Ying Changqing returned the silk handkerchief to her.

"alright."

"No one can see the tenderness Lord Dongjun showed just now."

Yan Fei glared at Ying Changqing, angrily lowered the carriage curtain, and jumped off the carriage.

Ying Changqing, supporting Jingni, said, "Be careful when getting out of the carriage, don't aggravate the fetus."

"You're pregnant, so be careful."

Jingni gazed tenderly at the considerate Ying Changqing, her eyes filled with affection, and said softly, "Thank you, Your Highness."

At that moment, Ying Changqing couldn't be sure whether the tenderness in Jing Ni's eyes was feigned or genuine.

He even thought that Jing Ni herself might not know.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Ying Changqing firmly believes that this tenderness will become real after the child is born.

"Heaven and earth have a beginning, yet I stand alone."

"The Tao gives birth to all things, and its transformations are boundless."

"The sage is empty and void, embodying the Dao and reflecting all things."

"Riding six dragons, galloping across heaven and earth, roaming in the vast sky."

"Mount Taiyi truly lives up to its reputation as a place where sages once lived; it is indeed magnificent."

As soon as Ying Changqing got out of the car, he saw the magnificent Taiyi Mountain in front of him and immediately exclaimed in admiration.

At this moment, several young Taoist priests quickly stepped forward and asked, "Do the three sirs have invitations?"

Jingni took out Ying Changqing's invitation from her sleeve and handed it to the young Taoist priest.

The young Taoist priest took the invitation, examined it carefully, and then showed a surprised expression.

He confirmed the invitation was genuine and immediately spoke respectfully.

"Welcome, Prince Yaoguang of the Great Qin Empire!"

"It is an honor to have Ying Changqing, the deputy leader of the Yin Yang School, and Yan Fei, the Dongjun of the Yin Yang School, grace us with their presence at the Taoist ceremony to witness the covenant between Heaven and Man."

After saying that, he hurriedly led the way.

Upon hearing the name uttered by the young Taoist priest, the surrounding crowd erupted in uproar.

Everyone looked at Ying Changqing in surprise, wondering what abilities this Prince of Qin possessed to be chosen as the deputy leader of the mysterious Yin-Yang School.

They were glad they had decisively given way to Ying Changqing, because they couldn't afford to offend any of these identities or statuses, let alone all of them.

"This is a prince of the Qin Empire."

"He is of noble status and is currently the vice leader of the Yin Yang School."

"The two women beside him were both very beautiful, which was enviable."

"Handsome, well-born, and with such a beautiful woman by his side, God is so unfair!"

"This isn't just enviable, it's downright hateful and infuriating!"

Hearing the discussions around him, Ying Changqing smiled calmly.

Amidst the envious and jealous gazes of everyone, the three of them entered the Taoist mountain gate.

Not far ahead, an old Taoist priest came running down the mountain.

"Greetings, Uncle-Master."

The young Taoist priest who was leading the way immediately bowed respectfully.

"Qingfeng, go and entertain the other guests. I will lead the way for the Prince."

"Yes, Uncle-Master."

The young Taoist priest named Qingfeng then left.

The old man turned to Ying Changqing and bowed slightly.

"I am Chi Xuanzi, greetings to Your Highness."

"Your Highness is of noble status, yet you have a mere Taoist boy to greet you; this is impolite."

"Given your status as a prince, you should be personally greeted by my senior brother, Sect Leader Chisongzi."

"But the covenant between heaven and man is approaching, and our sect leader is currently adjusting his breathing, preparing for a duel with the sect leader of the Xiaoyaozi Sect."

"That's why I'm greeting you on your behalf. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Ying Changqing smiled calmly and waved his hand gently: "Daoist, there's no need to be so polite."

"I now represent the Yin-Yang School, not the Qin Empire, so you don't need to stand on ceremony."

Seeing that Ying Changqing's expression was normal, Chi Xuanzi finally felt relieved.

After all, Taoism was within the territory of the Qin Dynasty.

They might disrespect the deputy leader of the Yin-Yang School, but they would never dare to offend a prince of the Great Qin Empire.

Otherwise, if the Qin Dynasty were to become angry, no one, let alone a Taoist, could withstand the consequences.

Even with all the philosophers of the Hundred Schools of Thought gathered atop the mountain, they could not stop the mighty army of the Qin Dynasty.
