“In short, we have to build a good relationship with Prince Ding during the royal banquet,” Xie Changchao said. After saying that, he raised his spear and stabbed it fiercely into the straw in front of him.

At this moment, the protagonist of their discussion was sitting at a table in the room.

The courtyard where Princess Yuqing used to live was filled with flowers and plants. Some looked lush even in winter. In front of the house where Xie Jingxing lived, the leaves of the trees almost blocked the entire window. Even in the daytime, the house still looked gloomy.

However, in the gloom, the young man sitting upright was as dazzling as the sun. The guard in front of him handed him a letter. He read it carefully and threw it into the heater in the house. In an instant, a puff of dust flew out and the letter disappeared.

“So, how’s the situation?” The young man in white poured tea for him in a relaxed manner, as if he was really here to drink tea with someone.

“The situation has changed.” Xie Jingxing did not turn around, as if he was thinking about something.

“Oh?” The young man in white paused and frowned at him. “Didn’t you already…”

“Gao Yang.” Xie Jingxing suddenly said, “How about we take action now?”

“You’re not like that.” Gao Yang was stunned at first. Then, he shook his head and said, “Don’t you always like to hide your strength and bide your time? If you aren’t one hundred percent sure you will win, you won’t do it. I’m surprised by what you said today.” He asked, “Did something happen to you?”

“I met a lunatic.” Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows. “She makes me realize that it’s not a bad idea to take a gamble.” He stood up. The corners of his purple robe were embroidered with cloud patterns with golden thread. If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to tell. However, in the dark, it emitted a faint glow.

“Are you talking about the daughter of the Shen family?” Gao Yang hit the nail on the head. “I heard from Tie Yi what happened that day. Although she’s bold, she’s too rash. Now that Shen Xin is back, I’m afraid with his personality, he’ll cause a scene again.”

“The thing is not in the Shen family.” Xie Jingxing said, “I’ve changed my mind.”

“You don’t intend to use the Shen family anymore?” Gao Yang was a little surprised.

“There are too many variables in the Shen family.” Xie Jingxing shook his head. Once the young man got serious, he revealed a calmness that exceeded his age. The natural elegance and nobility made him look mysterious and dazzling.

“What variables are you talking about?” Gao Yang asked.

Xie Jingxing smiled. “I have a feeling that the Shen family will become the greatest variable in the future of Ming Qi.”

Gao Yang seemed to be in disbelief, but his trust in the young man was stronger than the doubts. He said, “How do you know? How can the Shen family become a variable? Shen Qiu? Shen Xin?”

“There is someone smart from the Shen family.” Xie Jingxing said lazily, “But fate is too cruel. Her struggle will be futile.” He said, “In short, there’s a change in plan. Let’s think of another way.”

“Don’t tell me…” Gao Yang said with hesitation.

“I’ve endured it for too long.” Xie Jingxing said, “I endured it because I had worries, but now…” He smiled casually, as if the dark clouds had suddenly retreated and the sun was casting all its light into the room. Xie Jingxing stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently,” Gao Yang, I’m tired of lurking. I’ll take action in the shortest time possible. ”

“But what are you willing to let go?” Gao Yang asked.

“I’m willing to let go of anything.”

Gao Yang sighed. When he looked up again, he had already become determined. “In that case, we’ll do as you say. Let’s keep it a secret for now. Who do you think we should start with in the Ming Qi royal family?”

“As usual, I’ll throw a ball. Whoever the ball lands will be tackled first.” He smiled faintly. However, his fingers felt something in his sleeve. With a thought, he took out an exquisite bottle with his fingers. It was a medicine bottle given to him by Gao Yang. The medicine bottle was what Gao Yang called a priceless medicine. It was specially used to treat scars. Gao Yang said that with this medicine, no matter how deep the scar, it could be removed completely.

He held the bottle in his fist. When he let go of it, the exquisite bottle had already turned to dust.

Just like what Shen Miao did, a fire would break the false balance, and the ugly truth that was exposed was the real thing. Shen Miao used her scar to prevent the possibility of her plan falling flat. What about him? What would he do?

He glanced out of the window. He had seen the dark sky of the Marquis’s mansion too many times over the years. Because of the warmth in his memory, he was willing to maintain the false balance.

Now, it was time to break the balance.

He closed his eyes. His long eyelashes were as beautiful as butterfly wings in spring, but when he opened them, his gaze was sharper than the sharpest knife.

At this moment, there was a map spread out on the table. It was none other than the map of Ming Qi’s territory. From Youzhou to the Dingyuan City in the north, from Yuzhou in the south to Donghai, from Lin’an to Luoyang, the map covered every nook and cranny of Ming Qi and in the very center of it was the most prosperous Dingjing City.

The world was filled with heroes. He reached out and gently wiped his finger at the center of the map.

It was as if he was deciding the rise and fall of a dynasty.
