The Empress Dowager Duanmi stood there quietly looking at the young girl. After a long time, she slowly closed her purple eyes, walked up to her, and stretched out her hands to hold that stunning face.
"Sangsang... You have been with the Ai family since you were seven years old. Over the years, the Ai family has cultivated you and has been using you. The Ai family originally thought that when the Qianmi clan ruled the world, you would be my Qianmi." The saint of the family. Sangsang, why bother to give up your own life for a little fool? Biological sister, how hard have you worked by the side of Aijia to get to this day? She has been carefree in the Zhennan Palace for so many years, and she should do it These things are not in vain for her birth!"
What Duan Mi said was sincere. Not to mention the more or less affection these years, compared to the stupid and disobedient Ji Xiaoli, Qin Sang is really much more useful.
The poison was so powerful that even the base of Qin Sang's tongue began to tingle. She bit the tip of her tongue fiercely, and her words smelt sweet and bloody: "I don't miss this world... Xiaoli has a good home, and I will die with peace... If , Your Majesty insists... I will never live alone!"
The Empress Dowager Duanmi raised her sleeves, and a pungent scent brushed Qin Sang's nose. Her numb tongue recovered a bit: "Mother, please give me two hours. I want... to see someone for the last time."
"Who do you want to see?" The Empress Dowager Duanmi sighed and asked softly, "Since you don't miss this world, why would anyone want to say goodbye?"
"It's not saying goodbye, it's an old friend. I heard that he is about to get married, but I haven't congratulated him yet." Qin Sang said softly with his eyes downcast.
"Li Weiran?" Empress Dowager Duanmi slightly raised her eyebrows.
Qin Sang didn't answer, but lowered her eyes and said softly: "I have lied to many people, but I feel sorry for him. Please let me see him again."
There is something hateful about a poor man, and vice versa. Everyone who is hated by others has actually loved someone else sincerely.
The Empress Dowager Duanmi was silent for a moment, raised her sleeve to brush the young girl's beautiful face, the spicy and strange fragrance rushed into her nostrils, Qin Sang's blood was hot all over her body, and she regained consciousness in her hands and feet.
The Empress Dowager Duanmi took her by the hand and led her out, walked through the long secret passage, when the door of the outer secret room closed slowly behind her, Qin Sang felt at ease.
"The Ai family will give you two hours. If you don't come back after two hours, there are 200,000 troops outside the city and all the members of my Qianmi clan. No matter how clever Chen Yubai is, he is a mortal body after all. The 200,000 troops are enough to level the entire National Teacher's Mansion, when the time comes, the clansmen will capture Xiao Li, take her heart and blood, get the map, and we will return to the Holy Land immediately."
The Empress Dowager Duanmi's voice was soft and gentle: "Sangsang, go early and return early."

When Qin Sang rode out of the palace on a fast horse, it was already dawn.
The sun has not yet risen, the moon hangs faintly in the sky, facing the severe winter wind of Shangjing, this is the last winter of her life.
Spring will never come again.
But even now, with only two hours of freedom, she still felt that her life was too long.
A life is too long and has suffered too much, and now it is finally coming to an end, Qin Sang is not sad, she feels relaxed.
Her life was too difficult.
Those who have left traces in her difficult life, there are some people she really wants to meet, such as the king of Donglin Kingdom who once drank wine on the edge of the cliff, such as the beloved owner of the valley in Dark Night Valley. Concubines, such as His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince who is always frightened by her... of course her dearest younger sister, and... Li Weiran.
Qin Sang cherished in his heart and called his name.
So early in the morning, where will he sleep and wake up? Would he know that there was a person who was silently reciting his name so cherished and secretly during the last journey of her life
I wish he didn't know.
**
The morning of the National Teacher's Mansion is as peaceful and beautiful as ever.
Master Guoshi had a great time last night, so when he woke up this morning, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
The person who was deeply asleep in his arms had pink eyes slightly swollen because of crying too much last night, and now he was sleeping soundly on his chest, his mouth was slightly open, and his hands were tightly clutching the front of his chest. .
Chen Yubai lowered his head and kissed her slightly opened mouth, cursed "Idiot" in a low voice, and stretched out his hand to untie her fingers bit by bit.
As soon as she opened her hands, she realized that she closed her eyes and said "hmm!", put her hands on his neck, rubbed her face against his heart vigorously, and fell asleep again as she clung to him.
Chen Yubai hugged her and enjoyed it for a while, then woke her up with a deep voice in her ear and said, "Do you want me to get up and practice the sword, or not to get up and practice you?"
The scorching breath sprayed on the softest piece of skin behind her ear, Xiao Li trembled all over in his dreams, and opened his eyes in a daze, he repeated it again, scaring her to push him away quickly, Rolled up the quilt and rolled to the side of the bed.
Chen Yubai smiled happily, and couldn't help but chase after her to hold her down. Xiao Li was really bullied by him so badly last night, and now he still remembers it vividly, he closed his eyes tightly, and cried when he was cornered. Chen Yubai made her cry for a while, then got up satisfied, took a bath and changed clothes, and went to practice sword in the courtyard.
**
After practicing a set of sword skills, the steady and familiar footsteps of the old butler hurried over and stopped at the gate of the courtyard. The old butler said respectfully in a low voice: "My lord, there is a message from His Royal Highness's residence, please go to the house immediately. Come on, say yes—it's urgent!"
Chen Yubai shook off the petals of plum blossoms on the sword, and slowly withdrew the sword.
After a moment of silence, he lightly replied yes, and turned back to the house.
In the inner room, Xiao Li was still sleeping, Chen Yubai had finished bathing and changing clothes, he had already walked to the door but retreated back, sat down beside her bed, stretched out his hand and hugged her out.
Xiao Li was woken up by him, thought he was teasing her again, and very unhappy stretched out his hand and pushed his face away forcefully. Chen Yubai grabbed her hand and held her in his arms, whispering in her ear: "I want to go to the palace, you... stay at home and wait for me to come back."
Ji Xiaoli didn't notice what was going to happen at all, her world was warm and quiet, just like the quilt at this moment.
She rolled up the quilt and muttered vaguely: "Go away... I want to sleep!"
Chen Yubai sighed in his heart, and lowered his head to touch her flushed face: "Okay... I will try my best for you."
The last sentence was too low, Xiao Li didn't hear it at all, and was put back on the bed by him, and she continued to sleep soundly without any worries.
Chen Yubai walked out slowly, the carriages and horses were already waiting outside the gate, and the servants sent by the First Prince seemed to be capable and reliable, when he saw the Master of the State Teacher coming out, he saluted in a calm manner and lowered his voice. Said: "His Royal Highness sent a young man to spread the word: The triumphant army of 200,000 li outside the city may have some changes today, General Shen Wu has gone to stabilize the morale of the army, His Royal Highness, please go with Master Guoshi."
At this time, Chen Yubai had no objection, and only asked when leading the horse: "Has your master entered the palace yet?"
"The master left the city early in the morning."
Chen Yubai's eyes dimmed, but he had nothing to say, and got on his horse lightly.
**
At this moment, many people were galloping in the icy cold wind of Shangjing, some were anxious, some were gnashing their teeth, some were murderous, and some didn't know it was farewell, but were still full of tenderness.
When Qin Sang returned to Qianmi Hall, the Empress Dowager Duanmi was relieved when she saw her walk in, but then she sighed softly and looked at her with complicated eyes.
Standing beside the Empress Dowager Duanmi was a purple-haired man, thin and lean, with deep eagle eyes, as if he could tear out a piece of flesh just by looking at him.
That is the patriarch of the Qianmi clan, with extremely high martial arts skills, he obeys the orders of the Empress Dowager Duanmi, and the Empress Dowager Duanmi has relied heavily on him for so many years.
Seeing Qin Sang coming back, he turned around and walked back without saying a word. The Empress Dowager Duanmi got up slowly, glanced at Qin Sang, and asked, "Have you seen it?"
Qin Sang smiled slightly, a faint but touching smile, "Yes, I saw him."
"Qin Sang, it's too late to regret it now, go and arrest Ji Xiaoli." Empress Dowager Duanmi stepped down from the golden seat, lightly grabbed Qin Sang's hand, and persuaded in a low voice.
Qin Sang shook his head, didn't say anything else, and walked resolutely to the back of the hall with his head down.
Behind the Qianmi Palace is a hidden small garden. At this time, the entire Qianmi Palace was guarded by the confidant guards of the Empress Dowager Duanmi. No one noticed the abnormality of Qianmi Hall in the harem.
A small altar was set up in the small garden, and on the altar was enshrined the picture scroll made of thousands of dense flowers. The Empress Dowager Duanmi and Qin Sang knelt down. The last ray of light was swallowed up by the earth, and the pale full moon hung faintly on the treetops in the sky. Qin Sang got up and walked to the altar calmly. Turning over, a flash of light flashed, and when she looked closely, a dagger had been deeply inserted into her chest. On the handle of the dagger was a unicorn with its teeth and claws, and Qin Sang's soft and slender fingers pressed on it, poignant and decisive.
Such a deep cut went straight to the most vulnerable heart, but Qin Sang didn't let out a cry of pain, and even his expression remained calm.
When she pulled out the dagger forcefully, she frowned slightly and grunted. The dagger was pulled out from her heart, and a large amount of blood spurted out. The map on the altar was soaked in blood. At the big acupoint, the spurt of blood stopped immediately, but after all, her heart was completely broken, Qin Sang knelt down softly on the ground clutching her heart.
The whole garden is filled with a rich and strange fragrance at this time, making people feel intoxicated. Qin Sang felt that her body was getting colder little by little. She rubbed the unicorn on the dagger in her hand, but her fingers gradually disappeared. strength…
The Empress Dowager Duanmi squatted beside her, her lips moved slightly, and was about to say something when the patriarch over there suddenly yelled: "Your Majesty!"
Empress Dowager Duanmi's heart skipped a beat, she quickly let go of Qin Sang, got up and walked quickly over!
On the altar, instead of showing the map of the Holy Land, the picture soaked in the blood of the Qianmi Saintess, the whole picture gradually changed from lavender to black. It can't be pierced by a knife, and can't be destroyed by fire, but at this time it is strangely blackened and curled up... as if it was corroded by some invisible poison, and it turned into a pile of black ash at an extremely fast speed!
When the wind blows gently, the thousand-year-old dream disappears.
The Empress Dowager Duanmi took a breath in disbelief, and turned her head slowly, the expression in her purple eyes was chaotic and crazy, she stared straight at Qin Sang, her eyes were almost bleeding!
Qin Sang, who was curled up on the ground and clutched her chest, had a strangely sweet smile on her pale face.
"You raised my father for seventeen years, but you made him suffer all his life, and he couldn't escape until his death. I only lived with my father for seven years, but my father said that these were the happiest seven years of his life." The stunningly beautiful woman drained all the blood from her heart, she was as pale and thin as a piece of paper, as if she could go with the wind, but she still smiled beautifully: "I am my father's daughter, his I will complete the unfinished ambition for him...Grandma, I not only know that the inkstone and picture scroll were made by my father with the ancient method of picking thousands of flowers, but I also know something you don’t know—my father found the secret of thousands of flowers. Nemesis Wanli Grass... Before I came back, I drank the juice of Wanli Grass. Now that I have destroyed this scroll, there are no more Qianmi Flowers in this world except for the Holy Land. From now on, the Qianmi Clan Don’t even think about going back to the Thousand Secret Holy Land!”
