Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 525 - 524: I always feel that Ali is so strange
Yu Linglong left.
Jian Wuying watched Chu Qianli, her clothes in disarray, drenched in blood.
After Yu Linglong’s departure, the blood that had been gushing out in large quantities was now gradually lessening.
Perhaps, once a person dies, their blood flows more slowly.
Jian Wuying was an assassin, and by his own admission, he had killed many, but he had never witnessed the process of a person bleeding out before.
Today, even he didn’t know why he stayed by Chu Qianli’s corpse.
To throw her out to feed the wolves...
Finally, Jian Wuying stood up, supporting himself against the stone wall.
The wound in his abdon no longer bled profusely, but a small amount of blood still seeped out.
This injury was stranger than any injury he had ever sustained before.
Was it retribution?
He had never believed in retribution before, but now, he began to sowhat believe.
"Probably, it’s the heavens punishing ," he said.
Jian Wuying let out a cold laugh and was about to pick up Chu Qianli’s body.
To feed the wolves, he had no such intention.
After all, this girl was also rather remarkable.
He planned to take her out and find a quiet place to bury her.
But unexpectedly, just as he lifted Chu Qianli’s body, he distinctly felt as if she had moved slightly.
Jian Wuying had a strong nerve and never believed in such things as the dead coming back to life.
He imdiately put Chu Qianli back on the ground, his long fingers touching the tip of her nose.
The breath that had ceased just a mont ago, now, intermittently, returned.
His eyes lit up, feeling a sense of joy as if he had regained sothing lost.
"Little thing, it seems your life isn’t over yet! But, whether you can truly survive, that’s up to you," he said.
He gritted his teeth, enduring the severe pain in his abdon, carried her in a fireman’s lift, and quickly left the cave.
...
That night, Long Ziyue held the Imperial Decree, feeling uneasy.
By tomorrow morning, this Imperial Decree would surely cause an uproar in the court.
She had lived for so many years yet had never faced such a great challenge.
To stabilize a kingdom that had just been brought to order, and as rely a Prince, how easy could it be?
If only her mother were here, how nice would that be?
Long Ziyue tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, not knowing how long she had been rolling about, finally, she got up.
She had to find Fu Long, perhaps Fu Long could give her so advice.
At least, she wouldn’t feel so isolated and helpless in the court tomorrow.
Long Ziyue changed her clothes and imdiately left her room.
Fu Long lived next to the sleeping chambers of the monarch due to the Empress taking the throne only recently and many affairs remaining unsettled.
The palace was still sowhat chaotic.
Everyone’s living arrangents were provisional, even Long Ziyue remained in the Imperial Palace and had yet to return to the Prince Residence.
The more it was so, the more Long Ziyue knew that with Ali’s departure, the more responsibility would fall on her shoulders.
In this Imperial Palace, aside from Ali, Fu Long was the person she trusted the most.
But what Long Ziyue didn’t expect was, before reaching Fu Long’s courtyard, she saw a figure entering a nearby sleeping chamber.
"Ali?"
Long Ziyue doubted whether she had seen correctly.
But that face...
"Ali."
Long Ziyue imdiately followed after her.
Yu Linglong’s footsteps halted, and the call from the person behind her startled the maids in the sleeping chambers.
The maids and guards rushed out and, on seeing Yu Linglong, imdiately kneeled to greet her: "Your Majesty!"
What’s odd is, why was Her Majesty coming back in from the outside at this hour?
Long Ziyue caught up as well, and upon seeing clearly that it was indeed Chu Qianli, she was taken aback: "Ali? You... You weren’t..."
Yu Linglong glared at her.
This glare, indescribably icy, frightened Long Ziyue into shutting her mouth imdiately, not daring to speak.
Indeed, no matter why Ali had returned at this ti, her departure from the Imperial Palace was also sothing that no one should know about.
Long Ziyue looked down and said, "Your Majesty, this official has sothing to report."
Yu Linglong thought for a mont before saying, "Follow ... follow Us inside."
They entered the bedroom.
As soon as the door closed, Long Ziyue, with a face full of curiosity, quickly walked toward Yu Linglong: "Ali, how co you..."
"Presumptuous!" Yu Linglong’s face darkened as she said displeasedly, "What did you call Us?"
Long Ziyue was a bit slow to react, looked around carefully, and still couldn’t grasp the situation.
Perhaps there was soone else in the room: "Ah... Your Majesty, why have you returned at this ti?"
"This is Our Imperial Palace, why can’t We return?"
"But..."
Yu Linglong glanced at her, then furrowed her brows in thought, probably realizing sothing.
Her voice softened, "There was a sudden situation."
Long Ziyue looked at her, still with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
She always felt that the Ali before her was sohow different from usual.
But where the difference lay, she couldn’t quite put her finger on.
It was clearly Ali, but why did it feel... so strange?
"Why do you look at Us... look at like that?" Yu Linglong suddenly curved her lips into a smile, chuckled, "There were outsiders just now, I had to be serious, you wouldn’t take offense, would you?"
"How... how could I?" Long Ziyue forced a laugh.
This was Ali, after all! That glance she had given her just now must have been just for show, right?
After all, she was now the Empress. In front of outsiders, she couldn’t be too casual.
"So, Ali, now that you’re back, what about... the Imperial Decree?"
Yu Linglong almost blurted out, what Imperial Decree.
However, with her ticulous mind, she could figure out a lot of things with just so thought.
"There has been a change in my plans. You go and retrieve the Imperial Decree first, we will discuss everything else tomorrow."
Not suspecting anything, Long Ziyue quickly went back, retrieved the Imperial Decree, and handed it over with both hands.
Although Ali seed a bit different tonight, it was good enough that she stayed.
However, Chu Qianli seed very tired, glanced at the Imperial Decree, and sent her away.
When Long Ziyue walked out of the Empress’s bedroom, her heart still felt uncertain.
There was an indescribable feeling, sothing odd that she couldn’t quite identify.
"Ziyue?" Fu Long just happened to be passing by and saw a dazed Long Ziyue coming out of Chu Qianli’s bedroom. He was sowhat startled.
The fact that Ali had left—could it be that she hadn’t told Long Ziyue?
But she had clearly called Long Ziyue over before she left.
Hearing her na called, Long Ziyue looked up.
Upon seeing Fu Long’s figure, she suddenly clutched at him like he was a lifeline, hurrying over and grabbing the hem of his clothes.
"Fu Big Brother, I feel... I feel sothing odd."
Fu Long glanced in the direction of the bedroom and then pulled her to a corner, lowering his voice, "Didn’t she explain everything to you before she left?"
Based on his understanding of Ali, she wouldn’t have left without explaining everything.
After all, he wasn’t from Longteng Country, and to stabilize the court, he had to rely on Long Ziyue.
How could he not inform Ziyue about such a matter?
Long Ziyue shook her head, "She did explain, but she... she ca back."
"Ali is back?" Fu Long was taken aback.
But what was with Long Ziyue’s expression now?
Ali’s return, shouldn’t it be a good thing?
However, what could have happened to Ali that made her change her mind so abruptly?
Suddenly, Long Ziyue seized his wrist, "Fu Big Brother, I... I have this very odd feeling, about Ali... could you go and see her?"
