CEO Comes from Ancient Times - C195
What a huge joke!
Under Master Zhang’s control, she hadn’t lost even after going through countless hardships, let alone losing now. Was it because Master Zhang’s spell was powerful, or was it because Third Master Xi Sanming’s ability surpassed the heavens?
Victory was a foregone conclusion, but the process would be more difficult. However, for Huo Li, for Luo Shan, for her little daughter who could not be born with her will, what did it matter if she worked hard?
Furthermore, she had suffered many hardships. It was far from the torment of Huo Li sealing her from living a life worse than death. Gritting her teeth, she had endured it!
Huo Li, I know you love me, but I know your heart is only temporarily deceived. Believe me, I will definitely change the hatred in your heart, and I will definitely dispel the dust in your heart.
Huo Li, I love you. No matter what you do to me in the future, I won’t blame you.
After being depressed, panicked, and confused, the thinking Xi Sanmo was like an unbeatable cockroach again. She walked out of the room to face the warm autumn sun, and smiled.
Luo Shan, come back quickly and bring back the news of Huo Li. I want to know where he is. I want to be familiar with all kinds of encounters, passing by, and having all kinds of fights!
Gracefully, Luoshan sneezed.
She was lurking in the He Yue restaurant opposite the Residence of Crown Prince, looking out the window to watch the activities of the Residence of Crown Prince. The spy she had bribed was also squeezed into the crowd, making small talk with the commoners about the current situation of Crown Prince Jing.
Soon enough, the spy left the crowd and ran into the restaurant, waving his short arm as he ran. He ran into her room and said with a fawning smile, “In reply to the lady, the emperor has ordered for Prince Duan to return from the palace today, but the prince has yet to return. It’s said that his women haven’t returned either, but the Prince’s estate has already prepared everything they need to clean up, so it’s only waiting for the king to return.”
“Good, very good. Have you asked when Prince Xian will come to the Xi Mansion?” Luo Shan took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and tossed it to the scout.
The scout caught the bounty with both hands and laughed so hard that his teeth could barely be seen. “I have asked, and this little one will remember all that the lady has told me. “The steward isn’t too sure about these things either, because up until now, the steward hasn’t seen Prince Yi, but …”
“But what?” Luo Shan’s unhappy eyebrows knitted together before quickly dropping. Prince Duan wasn’t anything special. If he neglected her and made her suffer too many grievances, the sword in her hand wouldn’t agree.
Seeing her gloomy face, the spy leaned forward and said ingratiatingly: “The steward said that the palace’s eunuch came to deliver the imperial decree, and told them to prepare the betrothal gift as well as tidy up the palace to welcome Prince Duan back. On the second day after he returned to the mansion, they would have to take the betrothal gift to propose marriage to the Xi Mansion. The Crown Prince had not come back yet, so the steward was not sure if he could go to the Xi Mansion tomorrow. However, the betrothal gift is fully prepared, this is something that the young lady can be at ease with. ”
She took out a piece of silver and tossed it to the scout, saying seriously, “From today onwards, you are my man, I want you to find a way to sneak into the Prince Yi’s estate, and keep an eye on Prince Duan. As long as you have anything to do with him, you must report to me. “These two pieces of silver are for the reward, and this one hundred taels of silver is for your month’s wages. Do you want it?”
One hundred silver!
What a fortune that was!
Back then, he had worked hard for rich people for a month, but he had only earned fifty copper coins. Now, not only did he get two pieces of silver, he also earned a hundred silver coins a month.
The spy’s big watery eyes stared fixedly at the banknotes on the table. His eyes became cross-eyed. “Want, want …”
“If you want it, then take it. In the future, be more quick-witted and don’t let Prince Duan see any clues from you.” Remember, money is not a problem. As long as there’s news, money will roll into your pocket. ” Luoshan took the bag of silver coins and weighed it in her hand. The sound of the money attracted the little spy’s attention.
The scout swallowed his saliva, hurriedly put away the money on the table, and bowed as he flattered Luo Shan: “Lady is the Bodhisattva of the mortal realm, the one who saved the most difficult person, the one who has hit the mark. Lady Rong thinks highly of me, my life, from today onwards, will be yours. Rest assured young lady, I will definitely not disappoint you. ”
Watching the little demon run away, Luo Shan snapped her fingers in the air and proudly said: “Miss’s mission is completed!”
Huo Li wouldn’t have paid any attention to the Prince’s Mansion, which was so large. With one more servant and one less servant, Huo Li wouldn’t have paid any attention to them. Besides obtaining first-hand information now, anyone who wanted to make things difficult for them would have received the news as soon as possible.
However, that prince, when are you coming back? You haven’t come back yet, which has caused me to be unable to report the situation to you.
Come back quickly!
Huo Li didn’t want to go back, nor did he want to stay at the palace. If he was asked where he wanted to go, Huo Li would say, “I don’t know either.”
During the past few days when he had been back at the palace, he had been in a daze whenever he had the time. Whenever he was in a daze, his mind went blank. He tried his best to think about it, but no matter what, he couldn’t remember what had happened in the past few months.
Now that he had suddenly returned, the ones who were shocked weren’t only his royal father, but himself as well.
He did not know why he did not die, did not know how he came back, had lost his target, did not know what to do next. His heart was completely empty, completely empty, so empty that he could only think about that damned Xi Sanmo over and over again.
He stood in the courtyard of the Xuan Yu Palace with his hands behind his back. The golden sunlight that enveloped Xi Sumo also enveloped him, but when it shone on him, it did not reflect any of the enchanting halos nor did it warm up his cold body. An irresistible cold current permeated his entire body, causing people to stop in their tracks.
He looked at the osmanthus tree in front of him, but his dark eyes pierced through the osmanthus tree and lost their focus.
Outsiders only knew that he was quietly thinking. Only he himself knew that his heart had long since been thrown into disarray. Even the fragrance of the sweet osmanthus that he loved the most could not penetrate into his heart and calm the wild restlessness in his heart.
What right did this stinking woman have to marry him? What right did she have to be his concubine? Since royal father liked her so much, then he would take her in as his concubine. Why did he have to hand her over to him?
He hated her, he hated her, he laughed and laughed, and even when he heard her voice, he had the urge to rush forward and crush her.
Why was she wearing that tie? Why was her illness cured so promptly, so promptly, and also her appearance?
Why was there tears in her eyes when she looked at him? Why was she pretending to be familiar with him when they were clearly seeing each other for the first time? What kind of play was she acting, fawning on him, or perhaps she still wanted something from him?
“Xiao Qian, go and check on the relationship between the Empress and the waiter. I want to know if the Queen is particularly close to Xi Sanmo. That demoness Xi Sanmo is definitely not as simple as she pretends.” Huo Li hated her to death. His eyes were filled with killing intent. It was as if his crimson eyes could devour a person.
Xi Sanmo, you don’t even have the right to ask me to marry you!
Xiao Qian was one of Huo Li’s generals. He had been following Huo Li and risking his life on the battlefield, and due to his meritorious service to the Emperor, he was awarded the title of an extraordinary general. He took a step forward and asked with a puzzled expression, “Your highness, you suspect that Miss Xi and the Queen have a conspiracy? You suspect that Miss Xi was arranged by the empress? ”
“The Serpent of Hundred Feet will not freeze even if it dies. Don’t think that by being placed under house arrest, the empress will be able to learn how to settle down. If that’s really the case, then she won’t be able to sit in the empress’s position today. This King is worried about the Queen’s foresight, worried that she has already prepared a path for him, and that Xi Sanmo is the chess piece she is playing right now. ” The cold smile on Huo Li’s face sent chills down everyone’s spines.
Xiao Budian knew the viciousness of the Queen, so he naturally didn’t dare to underestimate her. It was just that how could Xi Sanmo be that kind of person? She looked so calm, so gentle, and so kind.
Xiao Budian didn’t say anything else. He turned around to leave. When he turned around, he saw a trace of bright yellow clothes faintly floating around the corner of the wall. It was him …
He was eavesdropping on their conversation outside. What did he hear? Would he tell the emperor? After all, Xi Sumo was the future daughter-in-law in the eyes of the emperor. He could not tolerate anyone from saying half a word of ‘no’ …
Xiao Budian did not utter a word, nor did he look down on Huo Li. He pulled on Huo Li’s sleeve expressionlessly.
Huo Li turned his head to look. When he saw the corner of Huo Li’s clothes, he couldn’t help but smile. “Come out, Your Highness.”
