Chapter 137 Soul Devouring Gu Reappearance
Now that she had witnessed her own people being captured by them, no matter how strong Mu Ling Hua was, her heart had already collapsed. Thus, she looked at Huyan Mingshuo and Fu Ying Ran with red eyes and shouted, “It’s you again. Why are you guys always following me?” You have already killed my father and Mother, and destroyed my country. Aren’t you satisfied? Why are you still killing me?
Was it because I ignored your objections and insisted on marrying Huyan Mingshuo? Isn’t that already ruined by you? And I also ended up in this situation. If I, the dignified Princess of the Southern Region, were to give myself to a prince of another country as a concubine, wouldn’t that be enough? What else do you want? ”
Looking at the collapsed Mu Ling Hua, Fu Yingran’s face was expressionless. Hearing her hysterical shout, she only said to her, “Don’t always look for reasons from others. You should also look back and see if you did anything wrong. Although you’re right, I’m really unhappy that you insisted on marrying into the Crown Prince’s Mansion, and you paid the price for it.”
But didn’t you end up like this because your Southern Border’s ambitions were too great? If it weren’t for your father wanting to control the Great Chen Kingdom, why would he let you commit yourself to the Second Prince of the Great Chen Kingdom as his concubine regardless of your happiness for the rest of your life? “As for the death of your parents and the destruction of the Southern Region, I can only say that since you have the courage to challenge us, you must be prepared to fail. All of this is your own fault.”
Hearing this, Chen Bao, who had been sitting on the side with a cold face from the beginning, couldn’t help but look back at Mu Ling Hua in disbelief and ask, “Ling Hua, is what she said true? Did you marry me just to seize the power of my Great Chen Country?”
Ever since he left the Great Chen Kingdom, Mu Linghua’s nature was completely exposed. She was no longer the gentle and refined Concubine Mu in the Second Prince’s Mansion. Rather, she was acting like a barbaric princess. Along the way, she was also picking her nose at Chen Bao and cursing him. At first, Chen Bao thought that her mood had greatly changed because the country had been destroyed and her family had died, so he gave in many times. However, as time passed, not only did she not restrain herself, she even became even more fierce.
In addition, wherever they went, the subordinates of the Southern Region only treated her respectfully. They completely ignored his son-in-law. This was different from what he had thought when he left Da Chen, so he followed behind Mu Ling Hua with a cold face along the way.
Now that he had heard the conversation between her and Fu Yingran, all the dissatisfaction in his heart exploded out in an instant. Thus, he waited for Mu Linghua to reply with anger in his eyes.
After seeing Huyan Mingshuo and his wife, Mu Linghua had already lost his mind and could not control his emotions. He immediately shouted at Chen Bao, “So what? Otherwise, do you think that I, the dignified First Princess of Nanjiang, would be willing to marry an incompetent prince as a concubine?” “Second wife, you are destined to never be able to turn around. If it weren’t for my father using the Loyalty Gu to force me, how would I have agreed to marry into your Second Prince’s Mansion?”
Hearing Mu Linghua’s harsh words, Chen Bao could no longer control himself. He directly stood up and reached out to pinch Mu Linghua’s neck. His eyes were red as he said, “You bitch, you dare to lie to me. I’m going to strangle you to death.”
Looking at the twisted two, Fu Yingran and the others did not say anything. He didn’t plan to send anyone to pull Chen Bao away, Because they all knew that as long as the Tongxin Gu was still in their bodies, Chen Bao would not strangle Mu Ling Hua no matter what, so she just turned around and said to the leader, “Second Brother, please take the others away. As for this Princess Nanjiang, leave it to me. She is still useful to me.”
The person leading the troops to surround the restaurant was none other than him, It was Fu Yingran’s second brother, Fu Tianchen. After hearing Fu Yingran’s words, He nodded and replied, “Yes, Brother. Your mission is only to catch all the spies in the Southern Region. As for the Princess of the Southern Region and the Second Prince of Da Chen, I will do it myself. However, you must bring them away from the Great Wei Kingdom as soon as possible. No more people from the Southern Region are allowed in the territory of my Great Wei Kingdom.”
Fu Yingran immediately agreed, “Of course. Our purpose in coming to Great Wei is to bring them back to Great Chen as soon as possible and hand them over to His Majesty. Second Brother just needs to be at ease. We will bring her away from Great Wei as soon as possible and definitely won’t let anything happen to her in Great Wei.”
“Well, that’s good. I’ll take these people away first. Hurry up and deal with them. Let’s go back to see Mother Concubine. She heard that you’ve arrived at the Great Wei. Don’t mention how happy she is. She instructed the kitchen to cook your favorite dishes early in the morning and waited for you to return.” After Fu Tianchen finished speaking, he patted Fu Yingran on the shoulder and prepared to leave the restaurant with the others.
When Fu Yingran heard this, a flower appeared on his face. He immediately agreed, “Alright, I know. It’s better if Mother Concubine loves me. You can leave first. We have arranged things and will go back to visit Father, Mother, Concubine, and Big Brother immediately.”
“Alright, then I’ll go first. I’ll wait for you guys to come back for dinner at the palace.” As he spoke, he nodded to Huyan Mingshuo and Nalan Jinhong, and left the restaurant with everyone.
Seeing that Fu Tianchen had gone far away, Fu Yingran turned to Huyan Mingshuo and asked, “Mingshuo, what should we do with them next?” “If we send them back to Da Chen openly like this, I’m afraid many troubles will arise along the way. After all, there are still many people escaping from the southern border. We still have to act cautiously. If we can avoid them, then we should avoid them.”
Seeing Fu Yingran ask, Huyan Mingshuo raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Linghua and Chen Bao, who were twisted into a ball. Then he walked over to Fu Yingran and whispered something in her ear. Fu Yingran’s lips curled up slightly as he praised him, “My husband is still smart. He really is scarlet. You’ve learned to be cunning when you’ve been with me these past two years.”
Huyan Mingshuo was not angry after hearing this. He only smiled and walked towards the two. He flicked his fingers lightly at the two and the two immediately fainted. Then, he saw a small green ball slowly crawling out of their foreheads. Then, Huyan Mingshuo put the two green balls in a brocade box.
He casually handed it to Nalan Jinhong, who was beside him. “I’d like to trouble you to find a few people, He quietly sent the two of them back to the Great Chen Kingdom. “When we arrive at the Great Chen Kingdom, we can break these two things and swallow the drop of blood inside. They will be able to wake up. At that time, you can hand them over to the Great Chen Emperor and let him handle them. After the matter with the Great Chen Kingdom is settled, send someone to inform Mu Hai to bring Mu Linghua away. This is also what I promised him.”
It turned out that Huyan Mingshuo had chased after Mu Lingfeng two years ago. At that time, Mu Lingfeng happened to have taken a large number of Soul Devouring Gu from Concubine Ni. He was fighting against Huyan Mingshuo, but he was no match for Huyan Mingshuo, so he threw a large number of Soul Devouring Gu at him.
Since Fu Yingran had already split his medicinal jade into two and wore the other half on Huyan Mingshuo, he was also able to avoid the Thousand Gu at that time. Thus, he collected the Soul Devouring Gu that Mu Lingfeng had thrown at him and kept it with fresh blood, just in case he needed it.
Fortunately, he also brought the Soul Devouring Gu with him when he was on the expedition just in case. He didn’t expect that he would use it now. He would use the things of the Nanjiang people on the Nanjiang people. This was also what Fu Yingran had done to her, Mu Linghua, and treated her with his own methods.
Nalan Jinhong stretched out his hand and took the brocade box that Huyan Mingshuo had handed over. He glanced at Mu Linghua and Chen Bao who were lying on the ground and couldn’t help but ask, “Is this the legendary Soul Devouring Gu? I’ve finally witnessed it. As expected, its reputation is well-deserved. Don’t worry, I’ll arrange for people to return to the Great Chen Kingdom immediately.”
After you’ve been to the Regent’s Mansion, you should catch up as soon as possible. After all, there’s still one Mu Lingfeng who hasn’t been caught yet, but you can’t be careless. In order to avoid a long night’s sleep, we still need to take down the Tianshui Kingdom as soon as possible and cut off his last path of retreat before we can completely deal with the remaining sins of the Southern Region. ”
Hearing his urging, Fu Yingran immediately became unhappy and became childish. “I know,” he said with a glance. “You just can’t see that I’m fine. It took me a long time to get home and see my family. I haven’t even returned yet. You’ve been urging me here, and I’ve never seen someone as blind as you.”
Three years, ever since she married Ye Lan, I never went back to my house, He had never seen his parents and elder brother before. Now that he had finally arrived at the door, he could go back and take a look. He had not even returned yet. He, Nalan Jinhong, urged her to leave quickly. No matter how strong she was, she would inevitably lose her mind. After all, she was only 19 years old. If she was in modern times, she might still be a mother’s treasure. How could he follow Huyan Mingshuo around like this? Therefore, the more Fu Yingran thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and his eyes immediately turned red.
After more than three years together, Huyan Mingshuo naturally knew what Fu Yingran was thinking, He couldn’t bear it anymore, He had always admired her strength, However, she ignored her fragility. Back then, she had no choice but to marry off to another country for the sake of Duanwang Palace’s future at a young age. Later on, she had no choice but to fight with people everywhere in order to survive in Ye Lan. Now, she wanted to help him rule the world. As he went around, she had indeed endured too much over the years.
Thinking of this, Huyan Mingshuo held Fu Yingran in his arms and patted her back gently. “Ignore him. We’ll stay in the palace for a few more days before leaving. Anyway, Tianshui Kingdom is there, so we won’t run away. It’s the same to fight early and fight late. What’s the harm of letting Mu Lingfeng have a few more days of leisure? It’s rare for us to come to Great Wei Kingdom, so we naturally have to go to see father-in-law and-law mother-in-law.”
Hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, Fu Yingran’s heart was no longer so sad. She leaned against Huyan Mingshuo’s embrace and said in a low voice, “That’s more like it. With your words, it’s enough. It won’t be necessary to stay for a few more days. I’m not someone who doesn’t know the weight of the matter.”
The current situation could be described as one of rapid change, One more day of delay means one more risk, “We just need to go back to the palace to meet our parents and brothers. After dinner, we’ll set off. Just like you said, the Great Wei Kingdom is here anyway. It won’t run away. When the world is settled, it will have plenty of time to come back and visit them. I was just feeling unhappy just now and complained.”
Huyan Mingshuo naturally knew that this was indeed the time to not tolerate her willfulness. The reason why he said that just now was to make Fu Yingran feel better. With his understanding of Ying Ran, as long as he followed her and waited for her to calm down after a while, she would know what to do. Sure enough, he still understood Fu Yingran. No, in just a short while, Fu Yingran had figured it out.
So he stroked her hair and whispered, “Alright, I know. Everything is up to you. We’ll leave after dinner. When the situation stabilizes in the future, we’ll come back and stay for a few more days. I want you to accompany father-in-law, mother-in-law, and two uncles and brothers.”
