Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

Xiao Wuji asked, "Don't you have any thoughts on this?"

Jiang Yeqian cast a sidelong glance at Xiao Wuji, who was leaning against the stone wall. "What kind of thoughts do you wish I had?"

Xiao Wuji said, "Qingzhou City is Northern Liang's territory after all."

Jiang Yeqian's face twisted into a slight smile. He muttered through the heat, "Are the spies planted here from each of your countries all for decoration?"

Xiao Wuji stayed silent.

The other people were also wondering who the mysterious murderer in Qingzhou City was; possessing the strength of a grandmaster, and yet staying hidden so deeply!

Gu Cheng said, "Now that you've shown up, surely State Preceptor Li Ruoxuan will arrive soon."

Jiang Yeqian said, "Let him come. I quite miss him too."

Xiao Wuji chuckled. "When Li Ruoxuan comes, I'm afraid it will be to kill you again."

Jiang Yeqian was leaning there with the white towel placed atop his head covering his face. His low voice came out from under the face towel. "Last time he bribed a tea server and successfully poisoned me. He will not be so lucky next time."

Qi Qingyao, who overheard this, raised her brow.

It seemed that some of the things he said were true, and that he really had enmity with…the State Preceptor!

Gu Cheng looked at Xiao Wuji and exchanged glances with him before asking curiously, "As the Head Grand Secretariat who hasn't returned to Capital City recently, did you know that Da Ming and Eastern Ling were going to invade Northern Liang from both sides simultaneously? However, because of the Lingyun Restaurant Massacre in Qingzhou City, they were forced to give up the operation for the time being."

Jiang Yeqian said dismissively, "They want to start annexing Northern Liang? Looks like the little empress has failed too much."

Qi Qingyao's heart rattled. 'F*ck, there's going to be a war?'

Gu Cheng continued, "Da Xing is going to be nine years old after the Lunar New Year. The little empress is still not married and has no heirs. Once Southern Ming and Eastern Ling invade Northern Liang simultaneously, the little empress will be in no mood to get married. As long as Southern Ming and Eastern Ling seize three cities each within seven months, the little empress will fall into an impasse. I think Northern Liang will be wiped out within two years."

Jiang Yeqian took off the towel on his face. The towel was a little cool and his hair was slightly wet. With heartless eyes, he said mockingly, "Man proposes, but God disposes."

Gu Cheng said with a half-smile, "That's right. The news of the Lingyun Restaurant Massacre in Qingzhou City has reached the capitals of the various countries. I think the war that was initially supposed to break out next year might be put on hold."

Qi Qingyao, "..." 'There's no war anymore, that's great! The civilians don't need to be displaced!

Jiang Yeqian looked at Gu Cheng and Xiao Wuji leisurely and said, "Whether there's going to be a war or not has nothing to do with me."

Gu Cheng asked, "Aren't you the Head Grand Secretariat?"

Jiang Yeqian said dryly, "I'll return to the Capital City next year and resign!"

Gu Cheng was thoroughly shocked. "You're greatly valued by the little empress. I'm surprised you want to resign!"

Xiao Wuji was even more shocked. He had purposely disclosed the news in hopes that Jiang Yeqian, who was in Qingzhou City, would cooperate with them and hand over the identity of the eighth grandmaster.

The Head Grand Secretariat who he held in high regard actually wanted to resign.

Who the heck resigned in their twenties?

It was not even a resignation caused by the helplessness of a changing dynasty.

He did not really understand what Jiang Yeqian was thinking.

Jiang Yeqian, however, saw through their thoughts and said, "As you all have said, there will always be war. If I don't hit the road quickly, should I remain in the imperial court of Northern Liang and wait to be buried together with the little empress?"

Xiao Wuji was not sure whether to laugh or to cry. He said, "Anyhow, you're an official loyal to the sovereign! Don't you find it inappropriate for you to say these kinds of words?"
