The Legend Of Beishang
138. Work Together

Lin Qiaofeng's sword tip drained Xi Qi's fresh blood, just a single scratch but deep and ruthless, this kind of attack was not something everyone could learn.

To do so requires a lot of determination and most people still feel hesitant to kill their enemies.

But, Lin Qiaofeng did not hesitate at all, if from the very beginning he had said kill, then nothing could change his decision.

That was him, people would mock him as a cold-blooded and stubborn person, but he did not care because it was in this way that he could survive.

If he was filled with doubt from the start, would he be able to stand up to this point ? Of course not !

"Why did you kill him ?" Asked Lin Yue still staring forwards.

"Because he has no other use, because he already knows who is a traitor and who is not then it is better to gather troops and form a faction. " Said Lin Qiaofeng.

"But, won't it be too late ?" Asked Lin Yue doubtfully.

"Emperor Lin Yi is not as weak as you might imagine, he can still lead a war. Can a weak poison kill him ? The slowest-acting poison can only function after 6 months. How long has the First Prince been visiting your father ?" Asked Lin Qiaofeng.

Lin Yue seemed to think and think things through hard.

"Maybe 3 months ago. " Said Lin Yue.

"Therefore, there are still 3 months, no need to worry. We have to make bets, life is always full of bets. You have to risk something to get what you want. " Say Lin Qiaofeng calmly looked out the window.

Although he seemed calm and untouched or disturbed, his heart actually felt unsettled as well.

This fellow has extremely strong abilities, this Lu Wang has an lifespan older than 8 years. To have this much ability, it really does not disappoint.

His brain kept turning until it finally stopped in one name, the whole clue very suitably passed on to this person he thought of.

But, there was no stronger evidence and this was just his suspicion. If it was indeed that person who did this then he would have to be careful in the future.

"You're really similar to dad, he said the same thing in the same tone as me when I was 10. " Say Lin Yue while pouting.

Lin Qiaofeng only responded with a thin smile, having this complicated relationship with Emperor Lin Yi made him feel at a loss for a way to respond to her.

If people get this then they will be very happy as if they got a prize from a lottery and want to immediately claim their prize.

But, Lin Qiaofeng was different, he had high self-esteem, was unshakable and always lived alone. Merely, seeing Lin Yue's violent reaction made her doubtful as to what she should do in the future.

"Do you have some guesses about who this Lu Wang is ?" Asked Lin Yue while looking at Lin Qiaofeng's wrinkled expression.

Lin Qiaofeng thought for a moment and did not directly answer Lin Yue, not knowing whether to tell Lin Yue his conjecture or not.

Before finally advancing his head and whispering something to Lin Yue, upon hearing who she was guessing, Lin Yue rounded her eyes and looked surprised.

"You're sure of your conjecture ?" Asked Lin Yue in surprise.

"Not sure, it's just that some evidence and the possibility leads to it. He's strong and talented but unfortunately lacking in the army, I'm afraid it's just that I didn't know that all along he was the Prince. We lack the evidence to say this, only that I have at least 50 percent confidence in myself. " Say Lin Qiaofeng with a serious look.

Lin Yue sighed heavily and looked at him with a serious look as well.

"Do you have a way for this ?" Asked Lin Yue.

"The only way is to gather the loyalty of the entire Pillar of the palace, so we have a much greater chance of winning. " Said Lin Qiaofeng.

"But this will derail your previous plans. Are you sure to do this kind of thing ?" Asked Lin Yue.

"Why not ? I have become used to releasing the little things for the bigger things, however if war breaks out then mountains of corpses and seas of blood will be seen where. Compared to my revenge plan, which one is more important ?" Said Lin Qiaofeng with determination.

"I didn't expect that you would choose this path, I thought before that you would still stand firm with your stance. " Said Lin Yue in disbelief.

"I'm not a fool blinded by revenge, it's not too late for me to take revenge in the future. " Reply Lin Qiaofeng while looking at the distance.

"The heart of people can not be guessed, if indeed that person is the culprit then I will regret having believed him before. " Next Lin Qiaofeng.

"You didn't tell me you were working with him. " Rully Lin Yue.

"That's nothing to be proud of right now, I thought before that I could ask for his help in the future not expecting that things had turned 180 degrees like this. Then, it seemed like I had offended one of his subordinates. " Reply Lin Qiaofeng.

"Who ? Who are you talking about ?" Asked Lin Yue enthusiastically.

"Chief of the Treasury Bureau, Yue Huo. At that moment he quietly walked towards the Emperor's treasure room and I reprimanded him. Now, he must be looking for a way to take revenge on me. I should be more vigilant in the future, because after all this identity as Consort Yanping is still very useful to me. " Said Lin Qiaofeng calmly.

"He must have wanted to expel you but couldn't do it, because you were disguised as Consort Yanping who was the Emperor's Beloved Consort. That evil old man can only do one thing to you, which is poison you. " Lin Yue said seriously as if this was a very important matter.

"I thought Yue Huo wouldn't be that stupid and take it that way, although poison was very easy and effective to kill his enemy but it still left a trace and Consort Yanping would die with the best impression on the Emperor's heart, at that moment in grief the Emperor would examine everything clearly and at that moment Yue Huo would eventually be caught. " It was clear Lin Qiaofeng was at length on Lin Yue.

"Then, what could the old bastard do again other than poison it ? Killed him directly ?" Asked Lin Yue in confusion.

Hearing this made Lin Yue widen her eyes before finally nodding.

"There was no more good impression in the Emperor's mind, even Yue Huo would get a good name for revealing such a heinous crime, so terrifying. " Say Lin Yue immediately understood what she meant.

"I have an idea, here the name Yue Niang is here it means the Empress is one of the minions of this evil force. What if we deflect the direction of the attack ?" Asked Lin Qiaofeng with an evil smile.

"You're going to do the same ? How could ?!" Asked Lin Yue.

"They've been so cruel, why can't I do the same ? " Task Lin Qiaofeng indifferently.

"Who do you think will be the man in this grueling drama ?" Asked Lin Yue to shift the subject.

"Possibly is.......... Envoys from the Tang Dynasty. It's as I expected, just need to wait for the play date. I became very excited to wait for this. The empress who was so arrogant would ultimately be unable to withstand this humiliation." Said Lin Qiaofeng viciously.

"If that's the case, isn't that envoy from the Tang Dynasty also their person ? Why did they make him a scapegoat ?" Asked Lin Yue did not understand.

"Because, they must have guessed that we will get information from Xi Qi. So they deliberately do this as if they are not on the same side, this kind of plan is actually very good but very difficult to execute. " Say Lin Qiaofeng nonchalantly.

"Qiaofeng, what are we going to do to the Xi Qi family ?" Asked Lin Yue.

"Bring them into hiding, the evil of a husband cannot be bestowed upon his son and wife. See if they have any good actions or not, if you don't then let it go and if you think they have no connection with that person then take them to one of the mountains to hide. " Said Lin Qiaofeng.

"But, is there not a saying that reads that we must cut the grass to the root of its roots so as not to cause problems in the future. " She complained Lin Yue.

"They don't know that we killed Xi Qi, if it can be a small savior for them, they will probably give us some things we want." Said Lin Qiaofeng with both hands tied behind his back.

"What do we want ? What ?" Asked Lin Yue did not understand.

"I heard that Nobility Xi of Tang is very good at making weapons, I want them to forge weapons for our troops. " Said Lin Qiaofeng with an indifferent face.

Hearing his words, Lin Yue was again surprised at the cleverness of her sister, Lin Qiaofeng.

"Yes, they were the best blacksmiths in the Tang Dynasty. True you said, it is very dear if the rest of it is just let go. " Said Lin Yue enthusiastically.

Lin Qiaofeng only let out a light sigh before finally jumping through the window and not wanting to pass through the front door.

Lin Yue who was thinking silently kept silent and did not realize that her sister had disappeared in the darkness.

Once conscious, Lin Yue stared around and could only find Xi Qi's corpse and this irritated Lin Yue.

But, despite being annoyed at being lived alone by her brash sister, Lin Qiaofeng. Lin Yue still did not forget her promise to the owner of this brothel and put 20 Gold Taels as her gratitude.

"Qiaofeng, you are so cruel and left me here alone. " Murm Lin Yue while pouting and coming out of the window then disappeared in the dark of the night.

Lin Yue searched for Lin Qiaofeng before finally finding Lin Qiaofeng was fighting with a man who could not see his face.

The man seemed to be quite familiar to Lin Yue after taking a closer look turned out to be Yang Xin, Lin Qiaofeng's face looked annoyed.

"Jie ! Until when are you going to keep dodging ?!" Yang Xin asked in frustration.

"Dodging what ? I'm not your jie jie, you've mistaken me for someone else twice !" Said Lin Qiaofeng furiously.

"Jie, I already know everything ! I've found out everything from Bei Wang !" Shouted Yang Xin.

"Yang Xin, no matter if you know what not, it's none of your business to interfere in my affairs. " Speak Lin Qiaofeng coldly and turn around.

"Jie ! All this time I just loved you ! Are you satisfied to hear all that ?! I tried to cheer you up and make you happy but in the end you chose that bastard man ! " Shouted Yang Xin.

Hearing this Lin Qiaofeng was speechless but did not show any excessive emotions like a normal person getting a declaration of love from someone else.

While the two men were fighting, the other person who was there was listening with glassy eyes and clenched hands.

It was Lin Yue, Lin Yue laughed inwardly and regretted for having come here so quickly.

It was better to accompany Xi Qi's corpse for longer and Lin Yue would not listen to this painful reality.

"Yang Xin, I appreciate your feelings but I don't want to give you hope because I never considered you more than my own sister. Yang Xin, I have people I love, you will meet people better than you. Don't you have a pretty girl as your student ?" Asked Lin Qiaofeng.

Yang Xin's face turned dark and prepared to say something but Lin Qiaofeng's face turned dark as well and immediately stopped Yang Xin.

Lin Qiaofeng knew that there was Lin Yue here and judging from Yang Xin's face, the words that the young man was about to say must have been painful for Lin Yue.

"If you don't like it, don't say anything hurtful. " Speak Lin Qiaofeng before finally walking into the darkness.

Yang Xin was still standing at the back and looking at Lin Qiaofeng's back with a nimble look. On the other hand, Lin Qiaofeng walked a bit away from there and looked at one of the roofs.

"Yue, until when are you going to stand there with your hands clenched like that ?" Asked Lin Qiaofeng while sighing.
