The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Chapter 784 Red Blood

Faced with Ji Bingyan's repeated request, Jia Daoshi naturally understood her meaning.

In fact, Jia Daoshi's desire for Ji Bingyan to sit on the throne was not out of personal motives, but because he felt that this should be the only option for the Great Jing Dynasty.

The eldest prince is not suited for this position.

And Wuqing Night...

Regardless of Wu Qingye's character, as long as he becomes emperor, there will definitely be a rebellion in the south.

Wu Quan would definitely not stand by and watch Wu Qingye sit on the throne, so he will definitely rebel when the time comes.

With Wuqing's rebellion at night, the Great Jing Dynasty will definitely not have a peaceful day.

Ji Bingyan is different. After all, she is Jia Daoshi's wife. With him as her husband, he will definitely help her clear away all obstacles.

Unfortunately, Ji Wuxin seems to have overlooked this point.

"It's alright. She is, after all, our elder. I won't make things difficult for her."

Jia Daoshi smiled and patted Ji Bingyan's head.

Hearing Jia Daoshi say this, Ji Bingyan felt much more at ease.

"My husband is so good!"

After the two returned to the Imperial City Guard, Yi Qianxiao and Weng Changting suddenly came over looking anxious.

"My lord, Ah Jiu is in trouble! We need to rush back immediately!"

"Ah Jiu is in trouble? What happened?" Jia Daoshi was stunned. He had only been gone for such a short time, and Ah Jiu was already in trouble?

“That’s right, not long after we set off…”

……

"Your Majesty, the princess and her consort suddenly left the capital shortly after returning to the Imperial City Guard."

In the Imperial Garden, Song Zhaoruo reported the situation to Ji Wuxin.

"Hmm? Did you leave in a hurry?" Ji Wuxin, who was drinking tea, was startled upon hearing the news.

“Yes, they left in a hurry,” Song Zhaoruo said, bowing.

Ji Wuxin remained silent for a moment before saying, "I understand. By the way, the High Priest hasn't returned yet?"

"No."

"Could it be that something happened to him too?" Ji Wuxin muttered to herself, then said, "Alright, you should go and rest too. You've worked hard these past few days."

"Yes!"

Song Zhaoruo agreed, but did not move her feet.

"What? Is there something else?" Ji Wuxin asked, somewhat surprised.

Song Zhaoruo was silent for a moment: "Your Majesty, Jia Tisi is building up his own power and cultivating his own strength in Youzhou County. I think he has big ambitions! We should pay more attention to him!"

"Hmm? That's your view. So, how do you think we should pay attention to this?"

Ji Wuxin remained calm.

Song Zhaoruo said, "I think we should send the Dragon Guard Manor to Youzhou County to investigate thoroughly, if..."

"okay!"

Ji Wuxin interrupted Song Zhaoruo directly.

"Yes! This servant knows her crime!"

Song Zhaoruo immediately knelt on the ground.

Ji Wuxin didn't blame her. He poured himself another cup of tea and said, "I don't mean to blame you. However, you don't need to concern yourself with Bingyan's matter anymore."

"This servant understands." Song Zhaoruo's clothes were soaked with cold sweat from the back.

"Alright, you can go now." Ji Wuxin waved his hand.

This time, Song Zhaoruo didn't dare to stay any longer and immediately left.

Ji Wuxin picked up the teacup in front of her, took a small sip, and her face remained expressionless.

No one knows what this emperor was thinking at that moment.

In fact, what she wanted to eliminate in this scheme was not just a few princes.

"Could it be that I was too impatient again..."

Ji Wuxin looked at the tea in front of her, a thoughtful look in her eyes.

……

Cliffside City.

Jia Daoshi rode in a motorized vehicle and sped back.

Jia Hu, Jia Bing, and their group lagged far behind.

There was no way around it; this machine-driven cart was indeed much faster than a horse.

I just entered the city lord's mansion.

"My lord, something has happened to Ajiu."

As soon as Shen Li saw Jia Daoshi, she rushed over anxiously.

If even someone as worldly-wise as Shen Li is flustered, this matter must be quite significant.

"What exactly happened?" Jia Daoshi asked, frowning.

With the city lord's mansion's protective system, who could possibly break in and cause trouble here? It's simply unbelievable!

As Jia Daoshi walked toward the inner courtyard, he asked the question.

Shen Li walked beside Jia Daoshi and explained, "On the second night after you left, the Skeleton Blood Guards suddenly broke into the manor. These Skeleton Blood Guards were not the kind that had lost their self-awareness that we had encountered before. They were extremely powerful. Even with all the elites in the manor mobilized, they were not able to completely stop them. In the end, it was only with the combined efforts of several of us that we were able to stop them. But what we didn't expect was that their target this time was Ajiu! After we were forced to fight back, Ajiu was attacked. That Skeleton Blood Guard was even more powerful!"

"What's Ah Jiu's situation now?"

Jia Daoshi's eyes already revealed a chilling murderous intent.

Shen Li was silent for a moment, then continued, "A-Jiu was hit by the Blood Palm and is now poisoned, remaining unconscious..."

"These bastards!"

A strong killing intent erupted from Jia Daoshi, and with a flash, he rushed towards the inner courtyard at top speed.

Murong Jiu was the first person he met after coming into this world, and she held special significance for him!

"My lord, you're back! Come and see A-Jiu!"

Inside Murong Jiu's room, Di Qinglin, Yan Ruyu, Mu Weishuang, Haila Sunazha, Xiao Reba, and their group were all present.

Di Qinglin grabbed Jia Daoshi's hand and cried out, "My lord! You must save Ajiu!"

"Okay, don't rush, let me take a look."

Jia Daoshi was also very anxious, but seeing the distraught state of the women, he calmed himself down and offered words of comfort.

Jia Daoshi walked to Murong Jiu's bedside, and his face darkened when he saw Murong Jiu's condition!

At this moment, Murong Jiu's originally fair face was covered with bulging, ferocious red blood vessels, which looked like centipedes crawling all over her body.

Murong Jiu's brows were tightly furrowed, and it was clear that even though she was unconscious, she was in great pain!

“Ajiu was poisoned by the Crimson Blood Poison. If she hadn’t been playing with Da Bai, Er Bai, and Xiao Bai’s family at the time, and Da Bai and his family hadn’t shielded Ajiu, and Xiao Bai had even taken the blow with his body, Ajiu might have died on the spot…” Yan Ruyu said in a deep voice.

After Jia Daoshi went to the capital, Yan Ruyu and Mu Weishuang rushed back to the city lord's mansion, fearing that something unexpected might happen.

But unexpectedly, even though they rushed back, they couldn't prevent the tragedy from happening!

If it weren't for the Bai family, Murong Jiu might have died on the spot!

Yan Ruyu was furious!

"Crimson Blood Poison?" Jia Daoshi's expression was also very grim. He took Murong Jiu's hand and began to take her pulse.
