120: Bury it

An hour later, Liu Shuwan found the two.

"Wan'er, are you looking for me for something?"

Qin Jiang asked.

Liu Shuwan pointed outside the mansion and said:

"The Divine Dragon Emperor sent someone to bring an old lady who was tied up."

"Hmm?"

Qin Jiang was stunned, then immediately reacted:

"Is that the Ninth Prince's maternal grandmother?"

"Probably."

Hearing this, Qin Jiang looked at Xia Qianling. He had originally planned to use this old woman to threaten the girl into submission.

But now, the Divine Dragon Emperor was too understanding.

He directly sent the person to their doorstep.

"Let's go take a look."

Qin Jiang took the lead and walked towards the outside of the mansion, while Liu Shuwan held Xia Qianling's small hand and followed beside Qin Jiang.

Outside the mansion.

The Third Princess had already rested well. At this moment, she was outside the mansion, looking at the old lady kneeling on the ground, and for a moment, she didn't know what had happened.

She naturally recognized this old lady, the Ninth Prince's maternal grandmother. Because of the Divine Dragon Emperor's favor towards the Ninth Prince, the old lady's status had also risen significantly.

Even higher than her status as the Third Princess.

The one escorting the old lady was the Fourth Guardian.

He was a bit depressed. He didn't really want to do such dirty and tiring work.

But in order to please Qin Jiang.

He still came personally.

After a while, footsteps sounded, and Qin Jiang and the others appeared outside the mansion.

The Third Princess immediately came forward to greet them.

No need to think too much, this kind of thing must be related to Qin Jiang.

"Hehe, Young Master Qin..."

At this moment, the Fourth Guardian also came closer, chuckled, pointed to the old lady, and said:

"His Majesty was quite enraged when he learned of what she did, so he ordered this old man to send her over. How to deal with her is up to you."

Qin Jiang looked at the old lady. Perhaps she had no cultivation talent; she was only in the Qi Blood Realm and was already very old, on the verge of dying.

Was the Divine Dragon Emperor sending a dying person to pull the Ninth Prince out of this situation?

Qin Jiang withdrew his gaze, looked at Xia Qianling, and said:

"You decide."

"I..."

Seeing the culprit who caused her father's death, Xia Qianling's face turned slightly pale, and a trace of hatred flickered in her beautiful eyes. However, when the power to decide the other party's fate was placed in her hands, Xia Qianling was somewhat at a loss.

She was just an ordinary person.

She had never imagined that one day she would be able to decide the fate of an important figure.

"You can do whatever you want, just don't go against your own heart."

Qin Jiang said softly.

Hearing this, Xia Qianling glanced at Qin Jiang, clenched her fists slightly, turned her head to stare fixedly at the old lady, and with a trembling voice, stated her decision:

"I want her to die!"

Although her voice trembled, every word was full of determination.

As her voice fell, Xia Qianling lowered her head.

Liu Shuwan, who was beside her, gently patted her shoulder, comforting her.

The Fourth Guardian looked at Qin Jiang.

The final decision still had to come from Qin Jiang.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Qin Jiang waved his hand:

"Bury her."

"Yes."

The Fourth Guardian responded, waved his arm, and a group of imperial experts took the old lady away.

From beginning to end, the old lady was very calm.

As a family member of the Son of Destiny, it must be said that her psychological quality was quite strong.

Perhaps, from the moment the Divine Dragon Emperor took her away, she understood her fate. At the same time, she also understood that only by appeasing Qin Jiang's anger could she protect her grandson.

Therefore, she did not resist at all.

Moreover, in this life, she had enjoyed enough glory and wealth. Being able to help her grandson ward off a disaster in her final moments was already a life well-lived.

However, she seemed to have forgotten.

This disaster was one she had brought upon herself. Of course, even without her, Qin Jiang would have found trouble with the Ninth Prince.

Therefore, this disaster was destined to be unavoidable.

Watching the old lady being dragged away, the Fourth Guardian rubbed his hands, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Young Master Qin, the Ninth Prince is the most talented among the next generation. Therefore, His Majesty's intention is that he hopes this matter will not implicate the Ninth Prince."

He can apologize on behalf of the Ninth Prince to Young Master Qin and this young lady."

Although it hasn't been officially decided, almost everyone defaults that the Ninth Prince is the future crown prince and heir to the throne. Even the Divine Dragon Emperor himself defaults to this.

As long as the Ninth Prince's strength becomes a bit stronger.

He will confer him as the crown prince. For so many years, he has also been focusing on cultivating the Ninth Prince.

No matter what it is, the Ninth Prince always chooses first, and only the rest are for the other princes and princesses. It is precisely because of this that many princes and princesses are somewhat dissatisfied with the Ninth Prince.

But the support of the Divine Dragon Emperor makes them have to yield no matter how dissatisfied they are. Moreover, the Ninth Prince is quite good at dealing with people.

Many times, the treasures bestowed by the Divine Dragon Emperor are also distributed to other princes and princesses, which has won him quite a bit of support.

As for Dragon Xiner, she has always been at odds with the Ninth Prince.

Moreover, this grievance was left from the previous generation. Dragon Xiner's birth mother and the Ninth Prince's mother were in a state of opposition, but...

When Dragon Xiner was around ten years old, her birth mother suddenly died violently.

Dragon Xiner has always suspected that the Ninth Prince's mother was behind it, so she has always been against the Ninth Prince.

Unfortunately, their strengths are not equal.

Moreover, without her birth mother's support and not being favored by the Divine Dragon Emperor, the Third Princess's forces will only become weaker and weaker, making it difficult to cause trouble for the Ninth Prince.

At this moment, hearing the Fourth Guardian's words, the Third Princess let out a cold snort.

A great emperor, for the sake of one prince, is actually willing to apologize. One can imagine how important the Ninth Prince is in the Divine Dragon Emperor's heart.

"No need for an apology."

Qin Jiang waved his hand and said indifferently:

"As for whether the Ninth Prince will be implicated...

It depends on my mood."

Hearing this, the Fourth Guardian's face twitched.

This means he doesn't plan to let the Ninth Prince off!

However, this is none of his business. He just needs to inform the Divine Dragon Emperor and let him worry about it himself.

"There is one more thing."

The Fourth Guardian changed the topic:

"Five days from now, the Shenlong Nest will open. At that time, members of the royal family and children of influential families will enter the Shenlong Nest. The Divine Dragon Emperor specifically reserved a spot for you."

"The Shenlong Nest?"

"Yes.

The Shenlong Nest is a Secret Realm controlled by the divine dragon royal family. According to rumors, it was left by the ancestor of the Divine Dragon Empire. It contains countless opportunities and only opens once every hundred years. Young Master Qin, your timing is perfect.

I wonder if Young Master Qin is interested?"

The Fourth Guardian gave a brief introduction.

Qin Jiang smiled and nodded, saying:

"I am interested, but one spot is too few."

"How many does Young Master Qin want?"

"It would be best if everyone I brought could enter the Shenlong Nest."

The Fourth Guardian: "..."

Everyone entering the Shenlong Nest?

What is this? Are you going to stock up?
