Chapter 628 She is Liu Enze
Chapter 628 She is Liu Enze
"Yes."
The maid responded and left, closing the door behind her.
Ye Qing'an's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly. She stood up and walked around the room twice before returning to the table. She found a seat with her back to the door and pretended to doze off, withdrawing her consciousness back to the Dreamland of Clouds.
The door was quietly opened a crack, and the maid who had been there earlier peeked into the room through the crack. She saw Ye Qing sitting on a stool, motionless, as if he was thinking about something.
The maid closed the door again and stood in the doorway.
Within the dreamlike realm of clouds, Jiuxiao blinked: "What are you doing, going in and out like that?"
Jiu Xiao walked around Ye Qing'an and clicked his tongue: "I have to say, of all the clothes you've ever worn, this one is the best looking."
After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Ye Qing'an thoughtfully: "Could it be that you're too nervous because you're getting married to Yi Moxu today, which is why you're going in and out like this?"
Ye Qing'an glanced at Jiu Xiao and shook her head: "Liu Enze is here."
"I knew."
Jiuxiao chuckled: "Yimoxu specifically instructed me to listen to your movements in this Cloud Dreamland, so that if anything goes wrong, I can go out and help you in time."
“I listened carefully, and I think you handled it very well. Wasn’t Liu Enze completely fooled by you? I also listened to the sound-bubble you put in earlier. Judging from the conversation between Liu Enze and the other people in the sound-bubble, he didn’t suspect you at all.”
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips tightly: "Yes, I did think so before. But..."
Did you hear the maid's voice when she spoke to me just now?
"I heard you." Jiu Xiao rolled her eyes, thinking that Ye Qing'an didn't trust her. "I already said I'd listen carefully. I've been listening intently to everything outside. Yi Moxu warned me before that tonight is crucial. If anything goes wrong, especially if you do something wrong, I'll be held responsible."
"I dare not disobey."
Ye Qing'an glanced at Jiu Xiao, remained silent for a while, and then said, "The maid who spoke to me just now was Liu Enze in disguise."
"Huh?" Jiu Xiao seemed to be momentarily stunned, looking at Ye Qing'an with a puzzled expression. After a long while, he finally realized what Ye Qing'an had said: "What? You're saying that the maid who spoke just now was Liu Enze in disguise?"
"Ah."
Ye Qing'an's gaze was deep: "Although he has done an excellent job of disguise and has even changed his appearance, I don't know what methods he used, but even his height has changed slightly."
"However, men and women are still different in some ways. Whether it is their words and actions or their subconscious little gestures, the most crucial thing is their eyes."
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips tightly: "It was because of his eyes that I recognized him."
Jiu Xiao carefully recalled what the maid had just said to Ye Qing'an: "She didn't seem to have said anything just now."
"Ah."
"I trust my sixth sense." Ye Qing'an flicked his sleeve. "Better to kill the innocent than to be careless."
"So what do you think? What do you want to do?"
Ye Qing'an pondered for a moment: "I suspect that Liu Enze did this because he doesn't trust me enough. He wants me to take Yi Moxu's head and then give a coded signal."
“Liu Enze doesn’t believe me. If I send out the signal later, he will definitely show up and come to check whether Yi Moxu is really dead.”
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips tightly: "If Yi Moxu dies, then all the plans can still proceed, and he will really keep his promise and take me away."
“But if Yi Moxu hadn’t died, he certainly wouldn’t have let me leave alive.”
Jiu Xiao's eyes widened: "Is it that dangerous? What are you going to do? Are you really going to kill Yi Moxu?"
"Pah, pah, pah, what am I saying? How could that be? Yi Moxu's drunkenness and the Chinese medicine are definitely an act. You can put on a show with Yi Moxu and join forces to take down Liu Enze, right? Even if Liu Enze is Ye Mei, he might not be your match."
Ye Qing'an walked back and forth several times: "Even if nothing unexpected happens and we capture Liu Enze... the subsequent plan to lure the Siyou Kingdom's army into the city will be completely ruined."
"We need to think of a way that satisfies both sides."
Ye Qing'an muttered to herself, then bit her lip tightly, her mind racing.
After a long while, Ye Qing'an turned her head to look at Jiu Xiao.
Jiuxiao took two steps back: "You, you, you, don't look at me like that. I always feel that when you look at me like that, it's never anything good. Speak properly, what do you want to do?"
Ye Qing'an pondered for a moment: "Among the spirit beasts you know, are there any earthworms or geckos that have cultivated divine consciousness and become spirit beasts?"
Earthworm? Gecko?
Jiuxiao's mouth dropped open, feeling as if his face was covered in question marks.
“Hmm.” Ye Qing’an nodded: “Earthworms and geckos have their own characteristics as spirit beasts; even if they are decapitated, they can still survive…”
Ye Qing'an thought about it more and more and felt that the plan was feasible: "Since Liu Enze drugged Yi Moxu, when Yi Moxu comes back, he will definitely be delirious or even unconscious."
"Then I conjured two spirit beasts that resembled Yi Moxu, made them take human form, and pretended to be Yi Moxu. Then I cut off his head..."
"If that's the case, even if Liu Enze really comes to check whether I really killed Yi Moxu, I won't be afraid."
Jiu Xiao stared wide-eyed at Ye Qing'an for a long time, then silently gave Ye Qing'an a thumbs up: "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant! I never expected you could come up with such a method."
"However... it seems that this is indeed a solution."
Jiuxiao was silent for a moment: "Wait for me, I'll ask a spirit beast I know to go find it."
Ye Qing'an nodded, then looked at Jiu Xiao: "Go to the front hall first and ask Yi Moxu to buy you some time."
"it is good."
After Jiuxiao finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.
Ye Qing'an stood still in the Dreamland of Clouds, carefully considering what was about to happen.
If everything goes smoothly, it is indeed possible to deceive everyone.
But the prerequisite is that everything goes smoothly.
Hopefully, everything will go smoothly as she expects.
Ye Qing'an took a deep breath and was about to leave when she saw Ling Yu walking over: "Ling Yu heard what Master and Jiu Xiao were saying just now."
Ling Yu took out a pill from her sleeve: "If we find an earthworm and a gecko to work together, Master can feed this pill to them first, so that the damage to them can be minimized."
Ye Qing'an looked down at the pill in Ling Yu's hand and smiled: "Good, Ling Yu is the best, like a timely rain."
