Ever since the assassination of his mother, Torrigo, the noble princess had been hiding in her own royal tent. Other than visiting Torrigo with the princess, she had never left her house.
One day, while he was lost in the sea and drinking with a few dancers, an order came from Han Ting, ordering him to go immediately.
He thought to himself, "Could it be that my secret plan has come to light? My mother, Torrigo, has always been ruthless and unscrupulous. If that's the case, I'm afraid my life will be in danger."
Thinking up to here, I really want to run away.
But the officials who gave the orders had experts of the Shadow Legion following behind them. Even if they wanted to escape, they couldn't.
He had no choice but to pretend to be calm. He let the servant help him tidy up his clothes as he arrived at the golden tent of Torrigo with a nervous and uneasy feeling.
When you look carefully, you see your mother sitting in the middle of the golden tent, happily enjoying the singing and dancing.
Seeing that his own son had come in, Torrigo's usual attitude very amiably indicated for him to sit by his side, accompanying him in watching dancing and drinking.
The more Torrigo was like that, the more frightened he became. He couldn't really sit, he couldn't even stand, and he didn't even have the mood to enjoy the dance.
After a while, the noble lady couldn't hold it in any longer and asked her mother why she had summoned her.
Torrigo ignored the noble question, still enjoying the dance.
It was only after the dance was over that Torrigo waved his hand at the female dancer, stared at her and said, "Eiji, I know you like dancing, but Eiji is the master of the Great Mongolia, and we have a lot of things to take care of every day, you and I rarely see anything else. Naturally, we are a lot more unfamiliar with each other now that we are free today, so I'll let you come and enjoy this new dance together."
From the looks of it, his mother must have discovered his secret by doing this. She must have tried to play a trick on him before she executed him.
In the end, he couldn't hold it in anymore. He knelt in front of his mother, Torrigo, and said loudly, "Mufei, if you want to kill the noble cause, then so be it. Mongol men are not afraid of death, so why be so secretive?"
Torrigo laughed heartily and said, "I heard that you've done quite a few good things recently."
"Eiji, you are making fun of me. You have already decided on all the big matters in Mongolia. My son can only drink in his own tent every day. What else can I do?" "Yes, sir," Yu said snappily.
Torrigo said, "Is that so? I'm afraid that he is still thinking about something earth-shattering even as he is meditating on the road and drinking in the dark."
Thus, he raised his head and put on an air of righteousness as he said, "Your son does not dare to take my words seriously. You should know that my every move is not monitored by you, my lord."
She really did not expect that the normally weak and noble character would actually have the bearing of a Mongolian man, which was out of her expectations.
In order to test the strength of his son, Torrigo asked seriously, "Honestly speaking, my dear, were you the one who instigated the assassination attempt on my son?"
"In the conscience of heaven, no matter how bad my cause is, I will not assassinate my own mother. "Besides, my son's every move is being watched by you. In front of you, I don't have any secrets." The noble one was not convinced.
Torrigo knew that this was a matter of himself arranging for the lost sea to spy on him. He thought to himself, "This kid is good. Not only did he not admit to assassinating me, he even killed me."
He then poured out a cup of wine, took out a small porcelain bottle, poured some powder into it and said, "Esteemed wangfei, this is a poisoned cup of wine. Since you said you are loyal to your benefactor, then drink this cup of wine now, and then return to your own tent to wait for death!"
"The monarch wants the subject to die, but the subject has no choice but to die. You and I are both subjects of the monarch, and we are mother and son. Our son has nothing to say." After he finished speaking, he picked up the wine cup and finished it in one gulp.
Then he got up and left.
Strangely, his son drank the poison. This Torrigo wasn't in a hurry at all. A knowing smile even appeared at the corner of his mouth.
When Torrigo saw that the noble figure had disappeared, he lightly clapped his hands.
As soon as the applause ended, two people walked out from behind her tent. It was her trusted Imperial Advisor Huo Shi.
After the two of them sat down, Torrigo smiled and said, "How is it? Your actions today are really unexpected. It's said that no one understands a son as their mother, but this consort is a little confused about her son."
Just now, this old official was listening to your conversation from behind. He was thinking, perhaps the prince had received some expert's guidance in secret, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to think of a way to assassinate you, but instead of bringing disaster upon them, let us fight with each other. Grand Imperial Adviser Huo Zhi pondered for a moment before replying.
After hearing Huo Zhi's words, Torrigo nodded and said, "That's a possibility, but who is this master?"
"There is one person who is the most suspicious." Huo Shi replied.
Torrigo asked, "Could it be lost in the sea?"
After saying that, he shook his head and said, "Impossible. You must know that Lost Sea has always been my trusted aide. He would never have betrayed me. Without this Concubine, she wouldn't be where she is today."
"My first wife, you must know that Hai Bian is currently a noble couple, although they are not on good terms with each other, it is hard to say that they didn't intentionally do it for us. You must know that if he assists your highness to become a great sweat, then he will become the same as you, the 'Princess Han' of Mongolia. This kind of temptation is irresistible to her." Huo Zhi said.
"That makes sense. No matter how well this concubine treats her, it won't be as close as the relationship between them is between husband and wife."
After saying that, she continued, "To be honest, this Concubine looked down on this son of mine, but I didn't expect him to become so scheming, so ruthless, and so venomous. Now, I admire him a lot. This is exactly what a sweat should have."
"There won't be a day when, for the sake of his own schemes, Torrigo will throw out his own. If that's the case, then I must make some preparations in advance."
It seemed that even if they were lovers of comrades in the same trenches, at certain times, they would also have their own plans, a terrifying field of power …
