A large group of servants and maids knelt outside the Phoenix-resting Chamber, and only when the man had left did they dare to poke their heads out.
Behind the deep courtyard tree, three female servants were looking left and right, waiting for the show to unfold.
"She really doesn't know what's good for her. Many people dream of getting favored by our Prince, and this Luo Shang actually secretly took that medicine. She deserves it." The maidservant looked at the tightly shut door and mocked. If she had such good fortune, even if she died, she would still willingly die.
"Sister Yun Xiu, you are a true god. It's said that after that incident, Princess Wangfei was filled with grief and despair, and she even treated you like a passerby." After the two maidservants finished speaking, they giggled.
Yun Xiu proudly raised her head, and revealed a sinister smile, and said to them: "I'm afraid this time, she is even more miserable than last time."
The humiliation this time, was nothing more than sprinkling a handful of salt on Luo Shang's wound.
Prime Minister's Estate —
The prime minister, Yue Dongyang, was the blood brother of the late emperor and his fellow brothers. After the late emperor ascended the throne, he was also the highest-ranked prince among all the brothers. Logically speaking, there had never been a case of a prince appointing a prime minister in the history of Wu Zhou, but after the late emperor passed away, forcing all the princes to set him up as the prime minister, Qiu Shangming was the deputy prime minister of the imperial history, and so they all helped right each other.
However, he did not expect Yue Dongyang to become more and more domineering, rebel, and take the throne. However, he was not doing it for him, but for his master.
Inside the secret pavilion of the Prime Minister's Estate, the master, Yue Dongyang, was dressed in the luxurious clothing of a prince. Even the buttons on his clothes were inlaid with pure golden agate.
His face was full of wrinkles. Even though his hair had turned white, he still looked like an old man. His thick white eyebrows were raised as he slowly put down the cup in his hand. Back then, in order to pacify the various kings, the Han King made eight attempts at marriage. Now that he has sacrificed his beloved daughter, the gains and losses are truly unimaginable to both of us. "
On the guest seat nearby, Han King Situ Xianke hesitated, his head lowered in silence.
He had three daughters in his family, and the eldest had already married, but this second daughter was very similar to him and was also his favorite. It was known to all that Prince Jin had just married Lo Ke's sister a few months ago. If his daughter married Lo Ke, she would only be qualified to be his concubine, but it wasn't for her, but his most precious legal wife and daughter would actually be only fit to be her concubine.
"Prime Minister, can you change someone? Oh, this humble subject has a little girl in his family, can you …"
Yue Dongyang did not know if he did it intentionally, but with two light coughs, the servants behind him immediately went to massage his back, pinch his hands, and pour tea for him.
He slowly drank a mouthful of tea and said: "Is the lowly Shu girl worthy to marry into the Prince Jin Palace?"
Whenhise Han King heard this, although the anger in his heart rose, but he was also afraid. He smiled and said, "My second daughter has always been a treasure. If you marry her, you can only be a concubine. I'm afraid that she will bring you trouble."
Boom! *
All of the guards in the Dark Pavilion pulled out their swords from their waists, and pointed them at Han King, who was sitting on a seat.
Han King gulped down his saliva. No matter what, he was still a prince, and although he wasn't directly related to the late emperor, he was still part of the imperial family. "He was so scared that his face turned pale and his lips trembled." Prime Minister, this is … What does that mean? "
Yue Dongyang laughed, and slowly raised his right hand that was covered in a thin cocoon, gesturing for everyone to return to their original place, and then ordered a cup of tea for Han King to drink. What are you all doing? Han King is a family member, how can you face him with a blade and sword. "
He then looked at the sweating man beside him and continued, "Speaking of which, being a concubine lowers the status of a prince. However, it depends on whose concubine it is."
Let alone a concubine, even a personal maid would be better than the main wife of an ordinary prince. If the Han King did not appreciate this kind of deal, then it would truly be an unworthy act.
Han King sat upright on the bed and raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat off his forehead. The Prime Minister was right. It's just that this Prince Jin already has an imperial concubine. This old servant heard that he was extremely attentive to her, would he still be able to take her as his concubine? "
"Master has his own instructions." Yue Dongyang laughed meaningfully.
Master, just who is this mysterious master, even Yue Dongyang is so afraid of him, I am afraid he is not a small character, the Han King thought in his heart.
It was said that a few days ago, Vice Envoy Ge Zhong had suddenly died. Those inexplicable anonymous memorials in the imperial court, as well as the defense of the nation at the borders and the rebellion, including the epidemic in the capital not too long ago, had all been orchestrated by this rumored owner. However, he had never seen the appearance of this mysterious person before.
"I heard that Prince Han had been walking around the border of Wei Guo for the past few days. Fortunately, he and Prince Jin separated. Han King made a hand gesture that was quick after slashing. If he did not get rid of Prince Han, getting rid of him would not be easy.
At this time, the butler of the palace came in, bowed to Han King and said: "Master, the Miyagi team is back."
The Miyagi's team was an elite team of the Dark Pavilion, and they were also the most skilled killers, they never left any traces behind when they killed people. Han King stood up and bowed. This old official still has some matters to take care of at home, so I'll come visit the Prime Minister another day.
"Han King, take care. Someone, send the guests off." After Yue Dongyang watched him leave, he slowly stood up, went around the hall and entered the study.
The butler left after reporting some things to Yue Dongyang. Yue Dongyang did not allow anyone to enter the study room. He pulled at the mural on the wall, and the wide bookshelf split apart into two. A stone door suddenly rose into the air.
The secret room was very big, it was constructed with gold, most likely the entire Wu Zhou, it was the most brilliant and luxurious of secret rooms.
A man stood tall and straight in front of a sculpture. His tall and straight shadow was reflected on the wall and his black, silver cloak was like a god of death in the night. A terrifying aura of death lingered around him.
"Master." Miyagi came to report that the corpse found at the bottom of Langya Mountain has been verified, and is not the Wei Princess's corpse. " Yue Dongyang knelt behind him and reported everything.
"Master, please be at ease. I have ordered some men to search for it." Yue Dongyang knew how important the Wei Princess was to his master, which was why he gave it his all to search for him.
The man did not speak. Black sleeves slowly slid down from the exquisite sculpture, as if he was carefully savoring an elegant book.
Yue Dongyang suddenly remembered something. He wanted to say something, but stopped and opened his mouth. One more thing, killer Tang Ao … "He fled."
The hand that was touching the sculpture stopped instantly under the illumination of the candle flame. The man turned his head. His pair of ruthless eyes were like the dark clouds under the dark night wind. It was so deep that the bottom couldn't be seen.
"He escaped?" His voice was extremely sinister, even more so than the diabolical Earth Fiend.
Even the scheming and extremely vicious Yue Dongyang was drenched in cold sweat, and he hurriedly spoke out. Please rest assured master, I have already sent more men. In the future, I will definitely bring his head back to you. "
That day, Tang Ao had accidentally seen this person's face and thus called upon a fatal disaster. He didn't expect that even though he was heavily injured, his life would still be great. He actually managed to escape, and if he didn't get rid of this person, it would only lead to trouble in the future.
