When Song Mingzhi walked into Qin Feng's room, seeing that Qin Feng was so haggard, Song Mingzhi felt like his heart was about to break.

"Qin Feng, what's wrong with you?" As Song Mingzhi said this, his face showed an expression of heartache. He walked forward with the intention to hug Qin Feng, but just as Song Mingzhi approached Qin Feng, Qin Feng was so scared that she dodged to the side.

Seeing Qin Feng being so afraid of him, Song Mingzhi's heart fiercely trembled.

"Qin Feng, what's wrong with you?" Song Mingzhi frowned, and looked at Qin Feng with a pained expression. Ever since Song Mingzhi met Qin Feng, he had never seen Qin Feng like this.

Seeing Qin Feng like this, Song Mingzhi rushed forward and hugged him. He did not know what Qin Feng had experienced in her life, but Song Mingzhi knew that he had to treat him well.

Qin Feng leaned her head against Song Mingzhi's chest, and only after some time did Qin Feng calm down.

"Qin Feng, it's fine, as long as I'm here, I will definitely protect you, okay?" When Song Mingzhi hugged Qin Feng, Xuanyuan Mocheng was right outside of Qin Feng's window watching him. Xuanyuan Mocheng's heart was still faintly aching, but Xuanyuan Mocheng told himself in his heart that from now on, he and Qin Feng were two completely different levels, and that there would never be another interaction between them.

When Song Mingzhi carried Qin Feng, he stood up and saw Xuanyuan Mocheng standing outside the window.

Just as Song Mingzhi was about to open his mouth to say something, Xuanyuan Mocheng reached out and indicated for him to stop talking. A complicated expression quickly flashed across his face.

I'll go back to Black Butterfly Villa first, and I'll appear when your plan starts. With that, Song Mingzhi carried Qin Feng out of the room.

Seeing Song Mingzhi walk out, Xuanyuan Zhiling let out a soft sigh. Previously, Xuanyuan Mocheng never thought he would ever see the day where he would helplessly watch Qin Feng disappear from her sight.

"Qin Feng, do you know? I once loved you so much, but all of this was my fault, I reaped what I sowed, I killed Chong Shan with my own hands, and you will never fall in love with me again. " When Xuanyuan Mocheng said till here, Qin Feng had already completely disappeared from her line of sight.

Xuanyuan Mocheng couldn't help but feel his eyes moisten a little.

"Goodbye, Qin Feng." Xuanyuan Mocheng said, then turned and left.

However, Qin Feng was trembling all the way while she was in Song Mingzhi's embrace. It was precisely because of Qin Feng's current state that Song Mingzhi decided to protect Qin Feng well, because in Song Mingzhi's memories, Qin Feng had never been like this.

"Qin Feng, don't be afraid. I will protect you well." Song Mingzhi lightly planted a kiss on Qin Feng's forehead. This kiss carried Song Mingzhi's heartache, and also Song Mingzhi's determination.

Qin Feng's pale face looked pitiful, and was even a little haggard.

"Chong Shan, Chong Shan, this sister has let you down." Qin Feng had always been reciting Chong Shan's name from his mouth, so Song Mingzhi had a rough idea of who this Chong Shan was from his mouth as well. But seeing Qin Feng's current state, Song Mingzhi was even more certain that this Chong Shan held such a deep position in his heart.

For some inexplicable reason, Song Mingzhi began to admire this Chong Shan a little. If only he, Song Mingzhi, could also enter so deeply into Qin Feng's heart like this, Song Mingzhi would have been waiting for this day to come.

Finally they arrived at the Black Butterfly Villa, and Song Mingzhi immediately asked the best doctor in the Black Butterfly Villa to treat Qin Feng. The doctor went to Qin Feng's room and checked his pulse: "Villa Owner, did Miss Qin suffered some sort of stimulation earlier?

The doctor helplessly shook his head, signalling to Song Mingzhi that he could not cure such a mental illness.

After Song Mingzhi heard this, he grabbed onto the doctor's collar tightly and stared at the doctor fiercely: "You said you can't cure Qin Feng's illness? If you can't cure it today, I'll make you disappear from this world! "

The doctor was so frightened by Song Mingzhi's intense reaction that he did not dare speak anymore. He could only kneel on the ground and beg: "It's not that I don't want to treat Miss Qin, it's just that Miss Qin's body is fine now, but there's a knot in her heart that has yet to be untied."

Hearing the doctor's words, Song Mingzhi immediately and angrily kicked the doctor out, causing the doctor to piss his pants and run away.

Song Mingzhi came to the front of Qin Feng's bed and looked at the Qin Feng who was lying on it with her eyes closed. They had only not met for half a month, yet Song Mingzhi clearly discovered that Qin Feng had lost an entire lap. Seeing Qin Feng's face that was as pale as a sheet of paper, Song Mingzhi felt as if his heart had shattered.

"Qin Feng, hurry up and wake up. Do you know how much I've missed you?" She did not know what Qin Feng had experienced. He knew about Chong Shan's position in Qin Feng's heart, but Song Mingzhi felt that he had to do without Qin Feng.

But there was no reaction from Qin Feng's bed.

Song Mingzhi lightly kissed Qin Feng on the forehead, then left Qin Feng's room with a little disappointment.

But at that moment, Qiu Shangjing had already rushed back to the palace, and secretly sent people to place a slip of paper on the table in his royal study. The reason why Qiu Shangjing dared to do so was because he was confident that Xuanyuan Zhiling would not suspect him.

When Xuanyuan Zhiling arrived at the imperial study to review the imperial reports, he saw the slip of paper that was placed on the table. Xuanyuan Zhiling's expression instantly changed greatly, and he thought that a thought had flashed past his mind.

"Xuanyuan Zhiling, right now, Qin Feng is in my hands. If you want to obtain Qin Feng, if you still have Qin Feng in your heart, you better come here and meet me at Black Butterfly Villa right now. Otherwise, I guarantee that you won't be able to get Qin Feng in your entire life." The name on the signature was Xuanyuan Mocheng's.

After Xuanyuan Zhiling saw this piece of paper, a complicated expression quickly flashed across his face.

This piece of paper could actually be delivered to the imperial study room without anyone knowing, which meant that there was Xuanyuan Mocheng's spy inside the imperial palace, and perhaps not just one of them at all.

Thinking to this point, Xuanyuan Zhiling's expression immediately became ugly. However, at this time, a name flashed past Xuanyuan Zhiling's mind. Could it be him? Xuanyuan Zhiling didn't even dare to keep thinking about it.

Xuanyuan Zhiling then found Qiu Shangjing and went to the royal study to discuss the matter.

"Your majesty, you're looking for me?" When Qiu Shangjing walked in, his face was full of seriousness, as if nothing had happened. However, Xuanyuan Zhiling would not relax his suspicions because of this.

When Xuanyuan Zhiling saw Qiu Shangjing, he laughed blandly as he stood up from his chair and walked in front of Qiu Shangjing: "Qiu Siping, you have been by my side for a long time, right?" Xuanyuan Zhiling's words instantly caused Qiu Shangjing's heart to fiercely tremble, but Qiu Shangjing was still extremely calm.

"Yes, the emperor knows this subject best. This subject has been working from the lowest county magistrate all the way until now, when he has finally become someone close to the emperor. All along the way, the emperor has done his best to promote this subject." Qiu Shangjing said, his eyes flashing with light.

Xuanyuan Zhiling's face turned cold when he heard Qiu Shangjing's words, "That's right, but I have never understood where your hometown is. Normally speaking, since you have been with me for so long, I should have a good understanding of you.

Xuanyuan Zhiling said with a complicated expression.

When Qiu Shangjing heard Xuanyuan Zhiling's words, he was so frightened that his entire body immediately broke out in cold sweat. He he explained, "Why is Your Majesty suddenly interested in this subject's origin today? "The Emperor has never asked before." When Qiu Shangjing said this, his forehead had already started to exude fine beads of sweat.

"Yes, it's precisely because I've never asked about the origin of Qiu Lingzhi before. Therefore, I want to get a better understanding of her background this time around." Xuanyuan Zhiling's tone of voice carried a bit of sternness when he said this.

Qiu Shangjing's expression immediately changed slightly upon hearing Xuanyuan Zhiling's words. "What exactly does Your Majesty mean? "This humble subject feels that it would be better if the emperor wanted to ask this humble subject directly. Such a roundabout way is not the emperor's style."

After Xuanyuan Zhiling heard what Qiu Shangjing had said, his expression quickly became gloomy.

"Really?" Alright, we will ask you now, are you really Xuanyuan Mocheng's spies? " Xuanyuan Zhiling roared out loudly, causing Qiu Shangjing's heart to fiercely tremble again. After all, he had been hiding by Xuanyuan Zhiling's side for so long, there was still a bit of pressure to resist.

Qiu Shangjing chuckled upon hearing Xuanyuan Zhiling's words, "The emperor is actually suspicious of this humble subject? This humble subject has been by the side of the emperor for so many years. Didn't the emperor want to kill this humble subject many times? "However, this humble subject is still as blunt as before. I didn't think that the emperor would still suspect this humble subject today." As Qiu Shangjing spoke, a trace of coldness and despair quickly flashed through his expression.

"Really?" If you weren't Xuanyuan Mocheng's spy, why would this slip of paper appear in our royal study? Who else is free to enter and leave the royal study? " As Xuanyuan Zhiling said this, his eyes stared straight at Qiu Shangjing.

Qiu Shangjing sighed and said, "It is clear that if Your Majesty truly suspects this humble subject, then the emperor can investigate this humble subject's background. But this humble subject knows in his heart that this humble subject is innocent."

Hearing Qiu Shangjing's words, Xuanyuan Zhiling's face suddenly changed as he said, "Why must Qiu Siping be so serious? We were just casually asking, there's no need for Qiu Siping to be so nervous." Saying that, Xuanyuan Zhiling clapped his hands, and immediately a group of guards walked in through the door.

When Qiu Shangjing saw this scene, he became even more flustered. A trace of unease quickly flashed across his face. "Your Majesty, what are you trying to do?" Qiu Shangjing said, his expression quickly becoming complicated.

Xuanyuan Zhiling smiled lightly and said: "You still can't tell? You're going to eat prison food. They're the ones who took you in. " Xuanyuan Zhiling said, with a slight smile on his face, causing Qiu Shangjing to not be able to see through his thoughts.

"Your majesty, I am Qiu Shangjing. I am your most trusted subject." Qiu Shangjing was truly afraid this time. His legs started to tremble, and his true nature was quickly revealed. Seeing this, Qiu Shangjing could not help but sneer, "What, isn't our Qiu Siping always extremely righteous? "What, are you scared now?"

Xuanyuan Zhiling's tone carried a tinge of ridicule.

"Alright, since you can see through it, I just want to ask how did you know? Am I not good enough? "You know that I almost died several times over the years, but I always relied on my intelligence to survive. I finally thought that I had gained your trust, but I never thought that you were even scarier than I imagined."

Qiu Shangjing looked at Xuanyuan Zhiling in fear when he said this. Qiu Shangjing suddenly felt that the Xuanyuan Zhiling standing in front of him was an extremely terrifying monster.

"How do I know? With your lousy acting, you think you can fool me? " Xuanyuan Zhiling said, and laughed sarcastically. Who does this Qiu Shangjing think he is?
