When Tong Qi returned to the Ziyan tribe, he did not go to Tong Xin, but went to Tong Xuan's valley first.
"Auntie, I'm sorry to bother you." Tongzaki saluted respectfully.
"Is something wrong?" Tong Xuan had just come back from Tong Xin. Ever since she told her about the marriage that day, Tong Xin had become very silent. She didn't make any noise or cry, but she stopped talking. She seemed to have suddenly lost her life and become numb. In a trance again. Tong Xuan felt uncomfortable seeing her like that, but she didn't know how to comfort her.
"I just came back from Fusheng Island." Tong Qi secretly glanced at Yougu and said in a low voice, "I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter? Tell me."
"Hmm..." Tongzaki hesitated.
Tong Xuan waved her hand to signal the old woman deep in the valley to step back first. "There's no one else here, go ahead."
"Aunt, I... I saw someone on Fusheng Island, no, no, he was looking for me." Tong Qi didn't want his aunt to have any misunderstandings.
"Who?" Tong Xuan replied casually, thinking more about Tong Xin and cherishing Tong Xin. She wanted to save Tong Xin, but there was no way she could do it. After all, they all live in the Ziyan Clan. Sometimes, the three characters of the Ziyan Clan are like a protective umbrella, guarding everyone inside. Sometimes, these three characters are like a cage, trapping the people inside.
The words "Taking care of the overall situation" made her breathless. If she were in an ordinary family, she would be able to show her so-called bloody nature, but it would never be allowed in a complex and ancient family like the Ziyan Clan.
Tong Qi hesitated again and again, then gritted his teeth and said, "Qin Ming!"
Tong Xuan's confused eyes suddenly became clear, and her tone became stern: "Who?"
"Qin Ming! He is waiting for me in my manor on Fusheng Island and asked about some clan affairs."
"Is he alone?" Tong Xuan was surprised, Qin Ming dared to show up? Or find Tong Qi
"He's the only one."
"Why are you waiting for you? Has anyone else seen him?" Tong Xuan's eyes were sharp and she wanted to see through Tong Qi. There was no room for nonsense in this kind of thing.
"No one else saw him and I don't know why they looked for me."
Tong Qi is very depressed, is there no one else to look for? Do you have to involve me
My delicate identity and embarrassing position might all be lost.
Tong Xuan's tone was stern: "What did he tell you? Just say it word for word."
Tong Qi hurriedly told the whole story, of course ignoring the fact that he messed with three women, and also tactfully avoided Qin Ming's words that mocked the Ziyan clan. "Qin Ming asked me to bring a brocade box to Tong Xin. I think it's better to show it to you first. There is also this letter, which Qin Ming left for you."
"Have you read them all?" Tong Xuanfeng frowned and took the brocade box and letter. Does he still have the nerve to give things to Tong Xin? Don't you think the insult to her is not deep enough
"I didn't touch it!" Tong Qi shook his head quickly, how could I care to look at that.
"Does anyone else know about this?"
"No, I came directly to your place as soon as I came back."
Tong Xuan held the brocade box and her expression changed for a while: "Go back and rest. Don't mention this matter to anyone."
"Aunt, don't worry." Tong Qi hesitated for a while, but then said bravely: "Aunt, I actually wanted to lure Qin Ming here, but he..."
"No need to explain, you did a good job, go back."
Tong Qi breathed a sigh of relief, finally showed a smile on his face, bowed, and exited the valley.
Tong Xuan looked at the brocade box, her brows knotted, what else do you want to do? Should we make a clean break, or should we apologize? Damn bastard, you ruined her life!
Click...
The brocade box was smashed into pieces in Tong Xuan's hands, sawdust scattered everywhere, and a crystal jade pendant fell into her hand. It was as smooth as agar-agar, shimmering, and exuding a delicate fragrance. There were two lines of small characters engraved on the front and back.
Tong Xuan was startled, her eyes flickered, and there were two lines of words on the jade pendant - If you don't give up, I will live up to you.
Tong Xuan recited it over and over again, her tense face slowly relaxed, the resentment between her brows gradually dissipated, and her heart suddenly felt as if she had knocked over a five-flavor bottle.
For a long, long time…
Tong Xuan sighed, why bother!
However, when she unfolded the letter written on the brocade cloth, her delicate eyebrows frowned again: "June 10th, Fusheng Island, come alone to meet me."
June 10th, three days later
Qin Ming wants to see me
Why
Doesn't he still think the Ziyan tribe he harmed is not miserable enough
Tong Xuan looked at the jade pendant and then at the brocade cloth in her hand. According to Tong Qi, Qin Ming should have just come to deliver the brocade box, and finally tore a piece of brocade cloth from the table and wrote this letter.
What does Qin Ming want to do
Knowing that the Sea Clan is fully searching for the Heavenly King Palace, he actually dares to meet me at this time
Tong Xuan didn't think Qin Ming wanted to harm her, nor was he trying to capture her and use her.
But what else can Qin Ming do? Aren't you afraid of being surrounded? You must know that the Ziyan clan is in urgent need of a chance to save their face. If they can seize Qin Ming and declare it to the world, it will be equivalent to a victory. With Qin Ming's shrewdness, he should have thought of this, but why did he ask to meet
Tong Xuan's mind changed rapidly. Should she go or not? Do you want to inform the clan leader
Tong Xuan is usually strong and calm, and has rarely been so upset. Logically speaking, she should decisively go to the clan leader, join forces to make a plan, take Qin Ming, and maybe capture the Tianwang Palace as well. But for some reason, Tong Xuan was still undecided. Because Qin Ming is not stupid. He knew he was going to die, so why did he come? There must be something wrong inside!
Could it be Qin Ming making plans again? Under the guise of an appointment, just wait for her to lead people to surround Fusheng Island, and the Heavenly King Palace will take the opportunity to counterattack
Could it be something very special? For example...for example what? Tong Xuan's thoughts are stuck here.
Until dawn, Tong Xuan had not thought clearly, let alone made a decision.
… …
When Tong Xuan came to Tongxin Palace Garden, hundreds of craftsmen inside and outside were renovating the palace garden, adding some festive elements in preparation for the upcoming marriage.
"The divorce is still a month away. Who asked you to do this?" Tong Xuan's face immediately sank, feeling uncomfortable.
The guards in the palace quickly saluted: "The people from the Moon Worshipers are here and are discussing the specific details of the marriage with the lady. They hope that we can make preparations in advance."
"Didn't you say we'd discuss it half a month before the wedding?"
"The Moon Worshipers..." The palace guards hesitated and couldn't say anything.
"explain!"
"The Moon Worshiping Clan said that although it is a concubine, it is their young master's first marriage. They should try to make it as grand as possible, grand and standard. They hope... I hope that we, the Ziyan Clan, will not embarrass them too much."
"Too embarrassing?"
Tong Xuan got angry and ordered all the craftsmen to leave the palace to negotiate with the Moon Worshipers.
Before entering Tong Xin's yard, the Moon Worshiping Clan's team had already withdrawn, led by a highly respected clan elder. "Haha, Tong Xuan is here."
"Ji Qingshan! Explain to me what it means to be too embarrassed!" Tong Xuan said with a stern face.
Um? Ji Qingshan raised his eyebrows and said, "We are all understanding people. Some words should not be said too clearly."
"I really don't understand."
Ji Qingshan smiled but said: "In front of so many people, don't make it too embarrassing."
Tong Xuan calmed down her anger: "I'm warning you, Ji Qingshan! Tong Xin is the daughter of the clan leader and also my niece. You'd better be careful what you say in the future."
"We pay great attention to it, but the bad comments from outside make our faces look disgraceful."
"Then cancel the engagement."
"It's pointless to talk like this. Do you think Ji Zhuoyan really wants her? Now that the whole sea knows that she is engaged to Qin Ming and living together, who still wants her? Who dares to want her? You have to know, we Ji Zhuoyan is expected to take over the Moon Worshiping Clan, and marrying such a woman who stinks all over the ancient sea will affect his reputation."
"You bastard, don't humiliate my young lady." The palace guards were angry.
"Humiliation? Haha, does she still need to be humiliated?" Ji Qingshan smiled and shook his head, beckoning the team to leave.
Tong Xuan stopped in front of him, her teeth trembling with anger: "Apologise!"
"Apologise? You should be the one thanking us! Thank you to us, the Moon Worshipers, for taking what you handed... Haha, that word doesn't sound good, so I won't say it." Ji Qingshan knocked Tong Xuan away and led the people away.
The guards in the palace were furious and wanted to go up and give the old guy a few slaps.
"Just do whatever you have to do." But Tong Xuan couldn't make trouble anymore. The trouble got bigger and bigger, and it was Tong Xin who was embarrassed.
