Immortal Fairies Always Have Designs on Me-Chapter 951 - 398: After All These Days, His ’Yang Energy’ Is Still Inside Me?

The Emperor has passed away, known throughout the world.

The slogan Dongfang Xinglan used when she first rose to arms was 'Clearing the King's Side, Saving the Nation from Calamity', meaning that the Son of Heaven, Emperor Jianing, was poisoned by those around him, leading to his grave illness, hence the uprising to eliminate the traitors.

Now, with Emperor Jianing having suddenly died in his prime, it serves as the best evidence, but this evidence still needs to be conveyed by public opinion.

Dongfang Xinglan, upon leaving the Divine Temple, plunged straight into the main hall of the City Lord Mansion, writing the obituary of the emperor's demise and the method to gather public sentiment posthumously, all without expression.

Due to the existence of the White Fox, even with the death of Emperor Jianing, the people would believe her statement, namely that the Crown Prince, along with certain senior ministers of the Cabinet, had committed patricide and regicide.

Coupled with the matter of Dragon Stealing, as long as she manipulates it properly, most of the royal family across the world will stand by her side.

Before Dongfang Xinghe ascends the throne, it is essential to create more chaos, allowing the common people to think that the Crown Prince is without virtue, thus invoking heaven's wrath and people's resentment.

Dongfang Xinglan wrote swiftly and fluidly, her handwriting full of both grace and resilience.

Lu Jin'an stood behind her, watching her finish writing the obituary before immediately taking up a military report transmitted from the Southwest to browse through.

She browsed at lightning speed, and her directives came just as fast.

While handing her a cup of tea, Lu Jin'an curiously asked, "How did you know Prince Ning would pass through this place? The road to Jiangde City is not just one, is it?"

Dongfang Xinglan lifted her eyes to look at him, her brows and eyes showing a bit more gentleness, then turned to the map to explain to him.

Ming Lan, who carefully brought in a stack of petitions from outside, blinked her eyes in slight amazement at Dongfang Xinglan.

Lord Qin never liked being disturbed while reviewing petitions, so the civil servants and military generals gathered under his command in the Southwest would always patiently wait when reporting affairs. Only when His Highness chose to speak did they speak.

But now, His Highness was interrupted, yet instead of responding coldly, he patiently explained to that 'traitor'?

Moreover, what happened to His Highness's expression? 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Having merely visited the Divine Temple, why is her demeanor suddenly so gentle?

Ming Lan didn't understand, nor did she think too much about it. She only quietly classified and arranged the stack of petitions on the desk, then quietly retreated out the door.

"You're not at the front line, yet you can see the situation so clearly?" After listening to Dongfang Xinglan's explanation, Lu Jin'an looked at her in slight amazement: "This capable?"

The reason the cultivator generals stationed at the Two Realms Pass can see the overall situation of the war largely owes to the coverage of Divine Sense, so they can make accurate judgments.

Given that Dongfang Xinglan has not yet opened her Sea of Consciousness, it's remarkable that she can accurately discern from war reports without speaking nonsense — it's either inherent talent or nothing at all.

"You don't believe me?" Dongfang Xinglan rolled her eyes at him in displeasure, then turned to lay out several earlier military reports in front of Lu Jin'an, tapping his arm with her hand to explain again: "Memorized it?"

"Memorized." Lu Jin'an nodded: "And then?"

Dongfang Xinglan then handed over a few military reports that Ming Lan had just brought in to him: "Here~ have a look."

Lu Jin'an unfolded and reviewed them one by one, precisely matching the previous military reports with Dongfang Xinglan's predictions.

Hiss...

Lu Jin'an's eyes mirrored surprise: "You even carried out the timing so precisely, truly remarkable."

To deduce the battlefield situation in the Southwest from a collection of varied military reports and petitions originating from different generals... this talent is truly terrifying.

Even if the defending generals in the Southwest are loyal and act according to Dongfang Xinglan's strategy, once the plan is initiated, there are bound to be unanticipated occurrences — yet Dongfang Xinglan can accurately assess the battlefield situation...

"This here." Dongfang Xinglan suddenly pointed to one of the petitions in Lu Jin'an's hand and said: "Jia Zheng, this General of Ningchuan State, has exaggerated, clearly seeking credit."

Lu Jin'an raised his eyebrows: "You can see through that too?"

Dongfang Xinglan smiled faintly: "He is not the only general involved. When combined with reports from other generals and the results, it's not difficult to tell."

Lu Jin'an turned to look at Dongfang Xinglan's bright eyes and slowly raised his thumb: "You truly are born to be an Emperor."

Dongfang Xinglan used her index finger to poke him in the side: "Although that compliment is sincere, I don't quite like hearing it."

"Is that so?" Lu Jin'an looked at Dongfang Xinglan with a smile as he raised his hand to encircle her waist and drew her into his embrace: "Then let me hear how you'd like me to praise you?"

After the embrace in the Divine Temple, indeed, Dongfang Xinglan's mindset altered somewhat; at the very least, he could sense that Dongfang Xinglan's attitude now carried sincerity.

"This will do." Dongfang Xinglan closed her eyes, nestled in his embrace, her voice soft: "Only you are left…"

Lu Jin'an could understand the deeper meaning in her words.

Her father, Emperor Jianing, had dealings outside the border for many years. Upon returning, he must have encountered some secret affairs, thus assigning Dongfang Xinglan to the Southwest, meaning, in a sense, Emperor Jianing became her backup in Shengjing.

Perhaps it pertains to Dragon Qi, perhaps other hidden powers.

But now that Emperor Jianing has passed away, the only power Dongfang Xinglan can wield is her own.

Though uncertain about the authenticity of Dongfang Xinglan's sincerity, for Lu Jin'an, it suffices for now.

"Sorry for taking up your entire morning." After a long while, Dongfang Xinglan released Lu Jin'an, offering him a slight smile: "It's time to depart."
