Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

#2957 - Why are you in the Imperial City?

In a certain restaurant in the imperial city of Great Liang, which is owned by the eldest princess, Liang Wan'er.

The princes received a secret message that Qin Keqing, the Anping County Princess, was secretly hosting a banquet for some court ministers tonight.

At this time, the ministers who were invited had already secretly headed to the restaurant.

Several princes, each with their entourage, were also heading towards the restaurant.

… …

At the same time, in the most luxurious private room on the top floor of the restaurant, Qin Keqing was standing by the window with several guards, watching the myriad lights of the city as evening approached.

Qin Yu stood beside her.

Qin Yu felt very puzzled about coming to the restaurant tonight.

“Your Highness, why exactly are we here?”

Qin Yu's heart was filled with doubts.

This was the most luxurious private room in the restaurant, very spacious, and the decoration was even more exquisite, exuding high-end luxury at a glance, and the price was not cheap.

But after entering, almost half an hour had passed, and the princess had been standing by the window, silently watching the city lights, remaining silent.

The table was also empty; the princess had not ordered any dishes.

She really didn't understand why the princess came here alone, when Lord God and the others were still at the border.

Why did the princess avoid Lord God?

Did she have something on her mind?

Even if she had something on her mind, she shouldn't have come to a restaurant.

This was not the princess's style at all; she would never be so extravagant on such a matter.

You should know that even without ordering dishes here, just this luxurious private room is very expensive.

This place is the best restaurant in Great Liang, and ordinary people with money cannot enter; basically, only wealthy merchants and dignitaries with very high status are qualified to enter, and others will be stopped at the door.

“Don’t ask too much; you will know soon.”

Qin Keqing's voice was very soft.

The evening breeze blew in from the window, scattering her voice.

At this time, the sky was already very dark, with basically no daylight left.

The silver moon hung high, casting a bright moonlight, illuminating her face, adding a bit of hazy beauty to her stunningly beautiful face.

Qin Yu glanced inadvertently beside her and happened to see her breathtakingly beautiful profile, her expression momentarily dazed.

She thought to herself that the princess was too beautiful.

Although she had been following the princess for many years, protecting her by her side, and was used to her beauty.

But at this moment, this beauty still made her somewhat unable to resist, with a sense of breathtaking beauty.

“Your Highness, please forgive your subordinate for being nosy.

Does Lord God know that you are here tonight?

If Lord God doesn't know, and Your Highness leaves alone, seemingly with something on your mind, but refuses to tell Lord God, and comes here alone to relieve your worries, will he be angry when he finds out?”

Qin Keqing's expression paused slightly when she heard this, and she glanced at Qin Yu, chuckling, “Qin Yu, how long have you known Lord God? Now you're already considering Lord God's attitude first. Are you starting to turn your elbows outwards?”

“Your Highness, your subordinate dare not. Your subordinate just feels…

Your subordinate is just a little panicked at the thought of Lord God being angry, and doesn't know how to face him.

A man like him must be very oppressive when he gets angry, right…”

“Oh, I see. If Lord God says he wants you to be a guard by his side, I'm afraid you'd hesitate and struggle for a while before running off with him.

Look at you now; besides me, your master, you already have a second master in your heart.”

“No, Your Highness, your subordinate doesn't think that way. It's just that I feel Lord God he…”

Qin Yu hurriedly explained, but Qin Keqing laughed, “Alright, look at how anxious you are.

Then she was also infected by her smile, “Your Highness, you are too bad; you almost scared your subordinate to death.”

“Huh?”

Qin Keqing looked at Qin Yu with a strange gaze, as if she had just met her, “What's going on with our Commander Qin Yu?

The once heroic female general, the cold and alluring guard commander, actually has such a delicate daughter-like demeanor.

Why didn't I notice it before?”

“Your Highness—”

Qin Yu was embarrassed by what she said, and her face turned red.

At this time, she was indeed completely different from her usual self, like a different person.

“Your Highness, your subordinate doesn't agree with what you just said.

It's true that your subordinate admires and reveres Lord God. After all, a man like him has unparalleled achievements, and has a talent that no genius in ancient and modern times can compare with. He is also the only faith in the hearts of all beings in the three realms.

Who wouldn't admire such a man? Who wouldn't want to follow him into battle?

But Qin Yu will never leave Your Highness, even if you let your subordinate go to Lord God's side, your subordinate wouldn't.

Your subordinate has been accompanying Your Highness for nearly a hundred years.

When Your Highness was a young girl, your subordinate came out of the Qin family army, away from the battlefield, to become your personal guard.

These years of accompanying Your Highness are the happiest times your subordinate has had.”

“Qin Yu, in my heart, I have always regarded you as family. You are like my older sister.

Those words just now were just some teasing and joking; don't take them seriously. How could I not know your intentions?”

“Then, Your Highness…”

As Qin Yu just opened her mouth, she suddenly heard footsteps.

It was normal to hear footsteps in this restaurant, but the footsteps were heading towards the top floor, so she had to pay attention.

People who can come to the top floor are not ordinary people.

The wealthy merchants in the city are not qualified; they must have extremely high status.

Moreover, because the price is too expensive, few people usually choose the top-floor private room.

“Someone seems to be heading towards our top floor, and there are quite a few of them.”

Qin Yu said in a low voice beside Qin Keqing.

“These are the main characters we are waiting for today.”

Qin Keqing told Qin Yu with her divine sense.

Just then, the void rippled slightly.

A figure appeared, startling Qin Yu.

“Lord God… Didn't you go to the border?”

Qin Yu was quite surprised.

Then she realized that it seemed Lord God and the princess had joined forces to set up a game.

Who exactly would be the one entering the game?

Are the owners of the footsteps that are heading towards the top floor the ones entering the game?

Her divine sense could not窥视 their aura and appearance.

Because this restaurant is very special, and the privacy is very good, with formations to isolate and shield divine sense perception.

Without seeing them face to face, you would not know who they were.

Unless their realm was high enough to ignore the restaurant's restrictions.

But obviously, Qin Yu could not do that.

“The one who went to the border was my incarnation.”

Jun Wuxie said, waving his hand, and many dishes appeared on the table, but they were all leftovers, and there was also unfinished wine.

Then, with another wave of his hand, a luxurious big bed appeared on the right side of the private room.

Qin Yu was stunned by this move.

Qin Keqing's face was slightly red.

“Qin Yu, you go guard the door.”

“Oh, yes!”

Qin Yu came back to her senses, took a deep look at the luxurious big bed, passed through the inner door, walked towards the door of the private room, closed the door casually, and stood proudly by the door with her sword in her arms.

Inside the room, Jun Wuxie casually picked up Qin Keqing, walked to the bed, and put her on the bed.

Throughout the process, Qin Keqing's delicate body was slightly stiff, trembling slightly, her face red, looking a little at a loss.

In this life, she had never experienced such a situation before; her heart was beating so fast.

“Don't be nervous, relax; it's just acting.”

Jun Wuxie gently held her with one hand, letting her lean against his arms, and then lowered the slightly transparent bed curtains.

Not long after, the footsteps approached, and Qin Yu's voice rang out at the door.

Her voice was obviously filled with some shock.

“Greetings, First Prince, Second Prince, Fourth Prince, Fifth Prince, Sixth Prince!”

At this time, she realized that the ones entering the game were actually five princes.

The Third Prince is at the border and not in the Imperial City; otherwise, he would probably be here too, right?

What exactly are Jun Shen and the Princess trying to do, attracting all these princes here?

"Commander Qin Yu, how is your Princess?"

The First Prince looked at her with a fake smile, glancing at the tightly closed door as he spoke.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Our Princess is doing well,"

Qin Yu adjusted her mood and said coldly.

The First Prince was angered by her tone and attitude.

The Qin Royal Residence is truly arrogant. A mere guard commander, only a fifth-rank military position, dares to speak to a prince like himself with such an attitude!

"Hehe, I didn't expect the Princess to have such refined interests, having the leisure to come to the most luxurious restaurant in the Imperial City and book the most expensive private room.

If I'm not mistaken, Princess Anping is hosting distinguished guests here today."

The Second Prince spoke.

"In response to the Second Prince, our Princess is indeed hosting distinguished guests here."

"Since that's the case, Commander Qin Yu, can you tell us who your Princess is hosting?"

Qin Yu's eyes turned slightly cold upon hearing this. "Who our Princess hosts doesn't seem to require questioning from you princes, does it?"

"Impudent!"

The anger in the First Prince's heart was difficult to suppress, especially when he thought of being severely dealt with and slapped in the face at the Qin Royal Residence that day, the hostility in his heart surged.

Now that Qin Yu was being so assertive, he really couldn't bear it.

"You, a mere guard commander of the Royal Residence, dare to speak to us princes in this manner!

Is this how your Qin Royal Residence teaches you to abide by the rules?

Do you even have a sense of hierarchy and respect for superiors in your heart!"

"Your Highness, I have said that who our Princess hosts is the Princess's right and freedom, and there is no need to explain it to you princes!"

Qin Yu's attitude was very firm.

"Hmph, what if your Princess is secretly hosting the various ministers of the court behind Father Emperor's back?

Do you know what crime that is!

Forming cliques for private gain and undermining the unity of the court officials, we, as princes, should of course intervene!"

Having said this, the First Prince was about to barge in directly.

Qin Yu reached out to block the door. "No one is allowed to disturb the Princess!"

"It seems you are courting death!"

The Fourth Prince's eyes were cold, and he gave his guards a look.

Two guards immediately stepped forward, their Creation Realm aura locking onto Qin Yu.

At the same time, the guards of the other princes also locked onto Qin Yu with their auras.

"Qin Yu, considering that you, the guard commander of the Qin Royal Residence, once came from the Qin Family Army, this prince and the others do not want to take action against you.

But if you resist, you will surely be killed here today!

You must think clearly, your stubborn resistance will only give the Qin Royal Residence a handle.

If you step aside now, things won't be so serious, and there may still be room for maneuver.

After all, Father Emperor has always been particularly gracious to the Qin Royal Residence.

But if you go too far, Father Emperor's wrath will still descend!"

Qin Yu's face showed hesitation and struggle upon hearing this.

The five princes looked at her expression, all with cold faces, not saying a word.

In the end, Qin Yu compromised, retreated to the side of the door, and let them make way.

At this time, the First Prince kicked the door open with a bang and directly led people in.

The other princes were the same, not wanting to be robbed of the first credit by the First Prince, and entered one after another.

"Princess Anping, you have great courage, daring to secretly contact the ministers of the court here behind Father Emperor's back!"

The First Prince shouted loudly as soon as he entered.

As a result, after passing through the inner door, he did not see the figure of any minister.

The table was full of leftovers.

Too late?

The princes' faces were gloomy. Could it be that these ministers had heard the commotion earlier and ran out the window?

That's not right, there are restrictions in this restaurant, and it is impossible to go out the window; you will be bounced back by the restrictions.

Immediately, their gazes turned to the bed on the right side of the room.

Huh?

When did this luxurious bed get placed in the private room on the top floor of this restaurant?

Could it be a new addition by the restaurant?

Faintly, through the bed curtains, one could see a figure on the bed.

The princes looked at each other, all seeing the surprise in each other's eyes, and then a meaningful smile appeared on their faces.

Only the Sixth Prince frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

His mind raced, thinking, standing still in place.

The other four princes led their people towards the bed.

"Good for you, Princess Anping. So, you're this kind of person!

I wonder if your fiancé, Yuan Chu, knows…"

"What do I need to know?"

The bed curtains were lifted, and Jun Wuxie got off the bed, looking at the princes with deep eyes.

The Sixth Prince's heart sank, and he immediately knew that he had been tricked.

He did not hesitate and turned to leave.

However, the door slammed shut, and many sword energies suddenly appeared in the edge area of the room, rising and falling, cutting off the princes' retreat.

"You… Yuan Chu… impossible!"

"Didn't you go to the border? How could you be in the Imperial City!"

"What do you want to do? Is this a setup you made, deliberately luring us here?"

The princes were not stupid. If they still didn't know they had been tricked, then wouldn't they be stupid to death.

Yuan Chu's appearance here was the best proof.

"Young Master Yuan Chu, I once saw your demeanor during the Three Kingdoms Martial Arts Competition.

After some days of not seeing you, Young Master's demeanor is even better than before.

Today's matter is purely a misunderstanding. We received incorrect information, which led us to mistakenly break into this place, disturb Young Master and the Princess's refined interests, and for any offense, please forgive us."

The Sixth Prince apologized very sincerely, his attitude very proper.

He knew very well that Yuan Chu's setup today, luring them here, must have a purpose.

At this time, if he softened and lowered his posture, perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope, at least things would not get worse and worse.

If he was unruly, with Yuan Chu's unscrupulous style of doing things, it was hard to guarantee what he would do.

After all, he was a personally transmitted disciple of a top-tier Daoist sect. With a top-tier Daoist sect backing him, he would inevitably be unscrupulous in his actions.

"I will ask you a few questions."

Jun Wuxie's tone was calm, and one could not hear his emotions.

"Young Master Yuan Chu, please speak."

The princes knew that the situation was stronger than them. This Yuan Chu's strength was terrifying. Although there were Creation Realm guards beside them, and there were many of them, they might not be able to defeat him even if they joined forces!

"With my identity as the Chief Personally Transmitted Disciple of the Supreme Offering of the Jinyun Immortal Sect, in this cultivation world, compared to your Father Emperor, who is higher and who is lower?"

"This… In terms of status, Young Master Yuan Chu is comparable to Father Emperor.

Young Master has a top-tier Daoist sect behind him, which our Great Liang cannot compare to."

"Very good, I am quite satisfied with your answer.

Second question, if your Father Emperor and Imperial Consort were enjoying themselves in the bedroom, and you suddenly brought guards in, and you used such remarks to him, would he spare you?"

"This…"

The five princes' faces suddenly changed greatly.

"Yuan Chu, what exactly do you want!"

The First Prince roared, "Today's matter is clearly a setup by you to lure us here. This is your conspiracy.

Now you are blaming us!"

"I made a setup? What evidence do you have? You should ask your intelligence network what they are doing.

Besides, isn't it because you used the wrong logical analysis that you came to the wrong conclusion?

You have also been secretly monitoring me, you are really audacious.

If I tolerate you like this, where is the dignity of my Jinyun personally transmitted disciple!"

As Jun Wuxie spoke, he took a few steps towards the middle of the room, scaring the princes into trembling.

Especially the First Prince, his legs almost gave way.
