Chapter 314 His Majesty truly favors Aqiao.
"The Rama Cauldron you have in your hands, and the Rama Heavenly Ice that you opened the cauldron."
Di Feisheng: Regardless of whether the cauldron is real or not, let's make her hand it over first and see if she will.
"Your Majesty, you...you knew everything?" Jiao Liqiao asked cautiously.
“I know what’s in Wuyan’s hands. I just didn’t know what you wanted to do with it back then, but now I do.”
“No, Your Majesty.” Jiao Liqiao quickly explained, “I didn’t mean to hide it from Your Majesty. When I found out that Luo Motian Ice was in Wuyan’s hands, I was a little surprised, but I didn’t have any intention of taking it. After all, what belongs to me is Your Majesty’s.”
"Unfortunately, this news somehow got to Feng Qing of the Wansheng Sect, who then sent countless people to snatch it. A Qiao on Wuyan's side was also keeping a close eye on these matters, and as soon as this news came, he immediately sent people to stop them."
"Thinking that the Silent Guards are responsible for protecting His Majesty's safety, if they keep the Luo Mo Cauldron with them at all times, Feng Qing will definitely not give up and will surely try countless times to send people to snatch it."
“But if that happens, Wuyan will be too busy taking care of himself to protect Your Majesty’s safety. So Aqiao suggested that Aqiao keep the Rama Cauldron safe and that Wuyan be the bodyguard to protect you.”
"You're kind enough, but you just took his things?"
“Your Majesty has wronged Aqiao.” Jiao Liqiao lowered her head, looking very disappointed. “Aqiao was only thinking of Your Majesty’s safety and came up with a way to temporarily keep it safe.”
"Your Majesty, you may take it if you wish, but we have not yet collected all the Luo Mo Heavenly Ice Aqiao. Moreover, the reason I have been feigning friendship with Zongzheng Mingzhu for so long is to use him to collect all the Heavenly Ice to open the Luo Mo Cauldron, so that Your Majesty can use it at will."
"At that time, everything will be under the control of the Venerable Golden Kite Alliance."
“The idea is good. Then leave it with you for now and proceed as usual. Have your Zongzheng Mingzhu find the remaining Luomo Tianbing as soon as possible. Once you have found them all, hand them over to me. I have other uses for them.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Jiao Liqiao: It seems that His Excellency is still the same as before, only focusing on improving martial arts and ignoring everything else. This time, he probably just happened to run into me while I was asking him this question.
Di Feisheng: That thing was fake to begin with. We deliberately let you steal it. What's the point of taking it back? It's better to leave it in her hands so she can feel at ease.
Jiao Liqiao: Your Majesty truly likes Aqiao; you didn't deceive me and even made sure I was at ease.
While Di Feisheng was away, Jiao Liqiao summoned her two trusted generals, Xue Gong and Xue Po, to discuss their plans.
At this moment, she had completely lost the girlish demeanor she had shown in front of Di Feisheng, and was now behaving like a leader.
"His Majesty seems to have learned of my royal bloodline in Nan Yin at some point, and even inquired about Luo Mo Ding and Luo Mo Tian Bing. He probably knows about my alliance with Wan Sheng Dao back then, and it was only a matter of time before he used the Heartless Locust Tree to scheme against him."
"Lord Xue, tell me, how will His Majesty view me then?"
Seeing Jiao Liqiao pacing back and forth anxiously in front of him, Xue Gong suggested, "Holy Maiden, haven't you already made preparations? Why don't we just go all the way?" Xue Gong made a throat-slitting gesture.
"Why not go all the way?" Jiao Liqiao murmured, her expression shifting unpredictably, as if she were engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
Jiao Liqiao casually plucked a brightly blooming flower from the side and gently stroked it, as if it were a precious treasure.
