The Killer's Cleansing Manual

Chapter 157 He Qing - Liuhe

There was a lot of noise in the room, and the few people were ultimately unable to subdue Ye Lang, and he broke free.

He Qing had already seen Ye Xiurong rushing in outside, and let Ye Lang throw her onto the bed.

"Today I'm going to let you know what a woman should do! How to please me!"

Just as he untied his belt, something fell out of his arms and landed in He Qing's arms, who quickly picked it up.

"Bring it to me!"

Before Ye Lang could open his mouth to curse, Ye Xiurong stepped into the room. Seeing this scene, he wanted to kill him with a knife.

"Ye Lang! Get out here!"

A loud shout like a lion's roar sobered Ye Lang up a little. He followed out in a daze and was scolded by Ye Xiurong.

The lady was also angry and did not plead for mercy. She came into the room to comfort He Qing.

"If that's not the case, let's sleep in separate rooms for now. Ye Lang really deserves to be punished. I'll ask your father to send him back to the southern border to temper his temper!"

He Qing showed a look of fear, and her silence made the lady very anxious. After a while, she finally spoke:

"Mom, I want to sleep in Xi'er's yard."

The lady let out a sigh: "Okay, let's go to sleep in Xi'er Courtyard."

Ye Lang was forced to sober up after being half frightened and half shocked. Ye Xiurong was very disappointed with Ye Lang and ordered his deputy general Li Chou to punish him with twenty military sticks.

Before leaving, he left a sentence: "You useless thing! How could I give birth to a loser like you who beats women!"

This sentence completely ignited Ye Lang's suppressed emotions. He broke free from the encirclement of the soldiers without saying a word, then grabbed a horse and ran out of the general's mansion without looking back.

Although the map was still with He Qing, he had almost memorized the route, so there was no need to go back to get it.

Seeing that he dared to escape, Ye Xiurong angrily ordered several people to chase him, but Ye Lang had already disappeared.

This incident gave Ye Xiurong a headache. After comforting He Qing, the general's wife ran to find her husband, extremely worried.

He Qing watched them leave before closing the door of Ye Xi's room and taking out the map to look at it.

It was clearly written on the paper - "Yuezhou".

Ye Lang rarely even went to the training grounds, so why would he go to Yuezhou? He had no relatives in Yuezhou, so what was he going to do in Yuezhou?

Xier, where did she go?

He Qing took the picture and pondered it carefully, remembering what Ye Xi mentioned before leaving, "traveling with the prince consort." Although she didn't want to meet that Prince Xihe so soon, she had to go and verify it.

The carriage from the general's mansion wobbled to the gate of the princess's mansion. Qi Zhaomian was listening to Yue Liu reporting the news about Lin Shanjuan and Ye Xi when Xiao'er knocked on the door to report.

"Your Highness, the young lady from the General's Mansion is here to see you."

He Qing? What is she doing here?

Qi Zhaomian didn't have a good impression of this person, not because of Ye Lang, but because when they first met, she wanted to give her respect, but He Qing not only didn't appreciate it, but stubbornly treated herself as an imaginary enemy.

Qi Zhaomian usually has a very strong prejudice against people who possess this kind of stupidity.

But the person was already at the door, and it would be inappropriate to chase him away in front of everyone, so he had to meet him.

The two sat opposite each other in a pavilion. Yue Liu looked at He Qing with sharp eyes and was very wary of her.

"I came to see Your Highness today for this."

He Qing didn't want to beat around the bush. If it was really as she thought, then Xier's trip would be extremely dangerous and they should be prepared as early as possible.

Xiao'er spread out the blueprint on the table. Qi Zhaomian only took a quick glance and realized that this was a shortcut to Yuezhou.

"Where did you get it?"

Facing Qi Zhaomian's sharp eyes, He Qing did not feel guilty or timid like last time, and her attitude remained neither humble nor arrogant:

"Ye Lang was drunk and left this thing behind. I know Xi'er was traveling with your Highness's consort, so I came to inquire about it."

She said seriously, "If Xi'er and the others also went to Yuezhou, then Ye Lang deliberately took a shortcut to get there. He must have the same goal as them. We should stop him as soon as possible."

Qi Zhaomian admitted that what she said made sense, but at the same time, she also noticed a more critical problem.

"who are you?"

He Qing was stunned and looked away for the first time since she came in: "He Qing."

Qi Zhaomian became more and more certain of his guess: "I have met you once before, and comparing the two, the feeling you give me is far different."

Especially since He Qing clearly loved Ye Lang, how could she do something that was obviously detrimental to Ye Lang? Even if she had doubts, she should have gone to the general and his wife, not herself.

Unless, the person she was worried about was not Ye Lang, but Ye Xi. Ye Xi must not have told anyone about her trip to Yuezhou, so the reason she took the risk to come and see herself was because...

She wanted to confirm whether Ye Xi was going to Yuezhou, and she wanted to save her.

He Qing had long known that Xihe was sharp and intelligent, but she had no idea she was so smart, and was unable to answer for a moment.

"What Ye Lang did...is chilling. I just don't want Xi'er to be implicated by him. After all, Xi'er has treated me well."

This reason sounds impeccable to others, but it is full of loopholes in front of Qi Zhaomian.

People are most easily controlled by emotions. If He Qing was really disappointed with Ye Lang, she would also leave room for him because of their relationship as husband and wife for so many years.

But when He Qing brought this picture to her, it was equivalent to completely abandoning Ye Lang.

How could He Qing, who loves Ye Lang like her bones, do such a thing?

She must not be He Qing.

"Xiaoxi and my husband did go to Yuezhou. Now that I'm telling you, do you have any good ideas?"

She skipped over the topic not because she believed it, but because she already had a definite answer and didn't want to waste any more time.

Realizing this, He Qing couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed at herself for being too concerned and revealing such a big flaw in front of her.

"I..." She gathered her thoughts and told him her plan. After all, although this prince was dangerous, it was also related to her husband, so she would not do anything to her easily.

Moreover, they are now their only allies, and there is no benefit in hiding things from each other.

"I'll immediately set out in pursuit, saying that Ye Lang has left something behind. The old general and his wife will surely have their followers go with me. I'll catch up with him on horseback, and even if he wants to do something, I'll still be able to stop him."

Qi Zhaomian analyzed the feasibility. She herself also wanted to go, but in this crisis, she could not play a big role. Moreover, if she left the capital casually, it would be easy for Ji Shihan to take advantage of the opportunity, so she could only stay in the capital.

Her suggestion is good, but I don't know how capable she is.

"Why did you come to Jingguo?"

He Qing paused, "My father is old, and my elder brother does not want to start a war with your country again. I am here now just to pick up my younger sister and visit old friends."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes, her gaze darkening. "Like Your Highness, I do not want the people of our two countries to suffer from war again. It would be ideal if we could continue the peace we have now. Therefore, I will never take the initiative to provoke trouble."
