Zhao Min murmured, “I betrayed my nation, which is as far as I can go. I really can’t turn around and help you deal with them.”
“Is this really true?” Zhang Wuji smiled disdainfully, obviously he still thought that Zhao Min was just a beauty trick orchestrated by the Mongols.
Even Song Qingshu in the distance nodded secretly. Putting aside his grudges with Zhang Wuji, his words made sense. Maybe Zhao Min was really a pawn of Mongolia.
“I don’t have anything else to say if you really think like this…” Zhao Min finally regained her former proud look, “If I really want to use a honey trap on you, why do I need to do it myself? What is my status in Mongolia? If I, Zhao Min, don’t like it, even if Genghis Khan personally ordered the marriage to a man, do you think that I would agree to it?”
“I didn’t say you don’t love me,” Zhang Wuji snorted, “You can not only help Mongolia get rid of its serious troubles, but also be with the man you like. Of course you have no reason to refuse.”
“So this is how you see me in your heart,” Zhao Min sighed dejectedly, “I don’t want to dwell on this issue anymore, just think of it all as a conspiracy if you want to.”
Song Qingshu was full of doubts, thinking that even if Zhang Wuji really thought so, there was no need to expose these things to them. Apart from completely chilling Zhao Min’s heart, what else would it do? Based on Zhang Wuji’s behavior during this period of time, he shouldn’t be such an emotional person.
“Second question.” Zhao Min said with a blank look on her face.
“Say!” Zhang Wuji said with a resolute tone of voice.
“Do you still have the box containing the beads and flowers that I gave you?” Zhao Min had a hint of hope in her eyes.
“Box?” Zhang Wuji was stunned and got lost in thought. After a long time, he finally nodded, “Is that the gold box that contains the black jade intermittent ointment? I still have it.”
Seeing that he had to think about it for so long, the conjecture in Zhao Min’s heart grew stronger. She said more and more seriously, “Bring it to me and let me see.” After saying that, she stretched out her white jade-like palm and spread it in front of Zhang Wuji.
“Now?” Zhang Wuji looked embarrassed, “I am traveling all over the world, and it is not convenient to carry such a box with me, so I left it in the bedroom of Guangmingding. Next time you go to Guangmingding, I will bring it to you.”
Zhao Min’s expression changed, her heart felt cold, as she silently took back her hand, and murmured, “You always carried that box with you before…”
Zhang Wuji’s face changed slightly, and he forced a smile, “I said, people will change.”
“But some things should not change…” Zhao Min sighed, “One last question.”
Zhang Wuji said meaningfully, “It is not necessarily a good thing to make some things a bit too clear.”
Zhao Min had a firm look on her face, “There are some things that must be clarified!”
Seeing the two of them asking and answering questions like a riddle, Song Qingshu couldn’t help but be confused. When he heard that Zhao Min was about to ask the last question, he quickly pricked up his ears, and listened carefully.
“Do you still remember that you promised to do three things for me?” Looking at Zhou Zhiruo next to her, Zhao Min seemed to be lost in her memories.
Zhou Zhiruo’s face changed slightly. She was the victim of one of those three things, which could be said to be even more unforgettable than Zhang Wuji’s.
“I remember.” Zhang Wuji nodded without hesitation.
Zhao Min paced back and forth, looking worried, “The first thing, I asked you to lend me the Dragon Slaying Sabre, and you did it; the second thing, I asked you not to get married to Zhou Zhiruo in Haozhou City, you did it too.”
Hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo couldn’t help but snort coldly.
“The third thing…” Zhao Min paused and looked at Zhang Wuji quietly, “Do you still remember?”
Zhang Wuji frowned, but soon put on a smile, “Of course I remember.”
“What is it?” Zhao Min said coldly.
“You asked me not to be the leader of the Ming Cult, but to stay and live with you like a hermit, right?” Zhang Wuji said with a smile.
Looking at that familiar smile, Zhao Min felt a chill rise on her back and subconsciously stepped back. Even Zhou Zhiruo took a few steps back in unison!
Zhang Wuji looked at the two women with confusion on his face, “What are you doing?”
Zhao Min sighed, “Even Master Zhou remembers it, but you don’t remember it.”
Zhang Wuji was stunned and looked at Zhou Zhiruo inquiringly, ” Zhiruo, did I make a mistake?”
Zhou Zhiruo looked at him in confusion, then at Zhao Min, and replied in a deep voice, “The third thing Zhao Min asked you to do for her is to comb her hair every day.”
“I originally had been confused, thinking that you were just temporarily blinded by power…” Zhao Min suddenly changed her tone and shouted sternly, “Who are you!”
Zhang Wuji was stunned and quickly laughed, “It’s me, Zhang Wuji, who else could it be?”
Zhao Min shook her head, her tone was very sure, and she said word for word, “You, are not Zhang Wuji.”
Song Qingshu almost fell down from the tree after hearing this. Although he had doubted Zhang Wuji’s identity before, he still had no choice but to let go of his doubts. The Nine Yang Divine Art and the Heaven and Earth Great Shift were not something that could be faked.
However, Zhao Min was the person closest to Zhang Wuji, not to mention her intelligence and cunning, Song Qingshu didn’t think she was talking nonsense.
Zhou Zhiruo had always thought Zhang Wuji was a bit weird, but because she was now more focused on her relationship with Song Qingshu, she didn’t think much about it. Now that she heard Zhao Min say it, and then thought about Zhang Wuji’s changes during this period, she couldn’t help but agree with that terrible conjecture.
“After the Lion Slaughter Assembly at Shaoshi Mountain, you began to change, but I’m not an idiot. How could I not know that you secretly went out to find Zhou Zhiruo every night?”
Zhao Min seemed to be lost in memories and said to herself, “At first, I just thought that you were still in love with her. After all, you didn’t do anything extreme, so I pretended to turn a blind eye.”
“Originally, we agreed to rescue your adoptive father, and then you would resign as the leader of the Ming Cult and withdraw from the martial world. However, after coming down from Shaoshi Mountain, you didn’t mention this matter at all. I thought there were some unfinished matters in your Cult, so I suppressed my doubts and decided to return with you to Guangmingding.”
“Do you know when I started to doubt you?” Zhao Min looked at Zhang Wuji coldly.
“When?” Zhang Wuji was noncommittal.
A hint of blush flashed across her face as Zhao Min said, “After coming down from Shaoshi Mountain, you sneaked into my room one night.”
“I know best about my Brother Wuji’s temperament. No matter how much he wanted to, he was never brave enough to do such a thing. If he really was brave enough to do such a thing in the middle of the night, he wouldn’t continue to hesitate on us four girls for so long.”
Zhang Wuji snorted expressionlessly, “That’s why you shyly said that night that you don’t want to lose your first time in the inn, and you insisted on returning to Guangmingding to give it to me again. Did you lie to me?”
“Otherwise, how would I have a chance to escape?” Zhao Min smiled sadly, obviously feeling lingering fear about the situation at that time, ” I don’t know where the real brother Wuji is. Even if your identity was exposed at that time, the people of the Ming Cult obviously would not believe the words of a little witch like me, so I had no choice but to lie and find an opportunity to escape back to Mongolia.”
“Just because I went to your room that night, you doubted me? I am a man of great vigor, and you are so beautiful. Moreover, we are in love with each other. Is it really that strange that I couldn’t help but come to you at night?” Zhang Wuji said in a deep voice.
“Hey, who made me think too much,” Zhao Min sighed quietly, “I was originally a cunning fox, and I am suspicious by nature. Coupled with all the abnormalities before contacting you, I came up with many guesses. But I couldn’t be sure. How could I have been so stupid to give my body to you so easily before I cleared my doubts?”
Zhou Zhiruo’s face heated up, thinking of the time when Zhang Wuji came to find her on Shaoshi Mountain. Although she felt something was wrong with him, she still chose to meet him. (G: Chapter 6.)
‘Fortunately, I insisted on refusing his advances at that time. If I had made…a mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable…’
Zhou Zhiruo’s pretty face suddenly turned pale.
“After returning to Prince Ruyang’s Mansion, I was able to use Mongolia’s huge intelligence network to help me investigate this matter…” Zhao Min continued, “What I found out really surprised me.”
“The first was all about your matter with Zhou Zhiruo. And, for the rest, I found that you sent people to find the Ninth Princess of the former Ming Dynasty and let her serve as the saintess of the Ming Cult. Then you rescued Ren Woxing from the place where he was imprisoned and helped him regain his position as the leader of the Sun and Moon Holy Cult. At the same time, you took the opportunity to control the entire Sun and Moon Holy Cult. After that you established relations with Huo Qingtong, the daughter of the leader of the Mu Zhuolun tribe of the Hui tribe in the Western Regions. You even plan to marry Princess Xiangxiang, the most beautiful woman in the Hui tribe, to unite the strength of the Hui tribe and jointly resist the Mongols.”
Zhao Min stopped to look at Zhang Wuji, then continued, “No matter how I think, all of these things are a part of a great strategy, even I have to praise it, but…” She then changed the topic, “It’s just that these things are not something that my Brother Wuji can do.”
Zhang Wuji frowned, obviously surprised, “You actually found out in such detail?”
“Using Mongolia’s intelligence network, coupled with careful calculations and analysis of many rumors, it’s not too difficult to find out these things…” Zhao Min said lightly, “When I said that before we get married, I want to go back to Ruyang Prince’s Mansion to see my father and brother. But that’s what you also wanted at that time, right? With me watching your every move, you wouldn’t be able to carry out many of your plans. What’s more, if you calculate the date, it seems that you are planning to go to Mu Zhuolun’s department to meet sisters Huo Qingtong, right?”
“More and more evidence appeared in front of me, and I finally understood that you couldn’t possibly be my Brother Wuji. But what puzzled me most was your disguise technique, your Heaven and Earth Great Shift is not fake, and the characteristics of your body seem to be exactly the same as Brother Wuji, so I still held a slim hope in my heart. Just now, I asked you three questions, and your answers let me be sure that you are definitely not him.” Zhao Min said decisively, with a very firm tone.
“I have used all my strength during this period, but I haven’t been able to find out where the real Brother Wuji is. If what I predict is correct, he should be no longer alive, right?” Zhao Min suddenly became very sad.
Zhou Zhiruo stood stunned on the spot with a face of shock, obviously having trouble digesting such an explosive news.
In the tree in the distance, Song Qingshu’s eyes flashed, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
