Devil Sovereign Gets Married - C14 I'm Sure You Wouldn't dare to Do It
After drinking a bowl of porridge, he finally recovered a little and asked: “What happened outside these few days? Has the First Prince and the others left? ”
The steward was holding a pair of chopsticks for him to eat when he found time to reply, “It seems like he left the day before yesterday. Before he left, the First Prince sent him a box full of gifts, saying that it was for you.”
“What did they send?” Yin Xu asked.
The steward’s face twisted as he lowered his head and replied, “Three quilts.”
“…” “Oh.” The corner of Yin Xu’s mouth twitched, and sighed: “Tsk tsk, it looks like this His Highness The Prince isn’t that open-minded.”
That night, Yin Xu had indeed done it on purpose. This villa was so big, it wasn’t difficult to find four or five rooms, and it wasn’t impossible to find a single bed for the blanket.
He just didn’t like having someone on his turf.
“Don’t say those words outside. Be careful not to say them out loud.”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.” Yin Xu suddenly thought of something and asked the butler to change out of his dirty clothes.
Yin Xu took out the three pieces of banknotes and handed it over to the butler. “Take it, use this money to repair this manor from inside out, and then build a huge hot tub. This young master has had enough of this narrow bathtub.”
The steward stared at the banknotes in his hand with wide eyes, and the hand holding the banknotes began to tremble. “This …” This… Where did the money come from? ”
Yin Xu replied with a “Why are you asking so many questions” look.
The butler stared at his young master for a while, and after confirming that he couldn’t get an answer, he kept the money away. Something like silver was always better than nothing.
With this money, they would be able to live a very good life for the next year.
Huo Yiloong had not had a good night’s sleep for the past three days. There were large black circles under his eyes and he looked much more haggard.
“Still not found?” he asked coldly.
Four burly men knelt in front of him, their heads drooping even lower as they heard his words.
“Young master, we’ve interrogated him in detail. No outsider entered the main courtyard that night.”
Huo Yiloong crushed the teacup beside him, “Never entered by myself before? Could it be that this young master will run away with all the silver notes he has on his body? Or perhaps … It’s you idiots who are keeping watch by themselves? ”
“This subordinate would not dare!” The four guards answered in unison.
“Humph!” You all probably wouldn’t dare! ” Huo Yiloong did not really doubt his own bodyguards. These people had followed him for more than ten years.
However, it was a fact that the three thousand taels of silver that he kept close to his body was missing. Moreover, he was certain that it had been lost that night.
However, this matter was very strange. If someone had really stolen it, how could he not have noticed?
His sense of alertness was not low, and his skills were not weak either. How could he let someone touch his personal banknotes without even knowing?
Unless he was drugged and couldn’t wake up even if he wanted to.
Thinking about his condition that day, it was possible that there was such a possibility. It was just that he didn’t know where this expert came from, to be able to come and go freely in this heavily guarded magistrate court without being discovered.
“Young Master, let’s not let County Magistrate Chen investigate. After all, it was stolen from his place. Even if County Magistrate Chen cannot find the thief, he should compensate you for your losses.”
Huo Yiloong glared at the person who spoke, “You want to make this young master lose face, right? If others find out that I don’t even know that there’s a thief in my sleep, wouldn’t it make them laugh their teeth out? ”
“This subordinate would not dare!” The speaker bowed his head in acknowledgment of his mistake.
Huo Yiloong was angry for a moment, then waved his hand, “Forget it, it’s just three thousand silver. If it’s lost, then it’s lost.
Huo Yiloong was not the kind of young master who only knew how to be brave. In his eyes, nothing was as important as his own life.
He would not risk his life without an absolute chance of victory.
However, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart and felt a faint unease.
“Is the First Prince still copying the Buddhist scriptures in his room?” Huo Yiloong asked with an indifferent expression.
“Yes, I heard from the guards by the First Prince’s side that His Highness has decided to fast for seven days.”
Although Huo Yiloong felt that the First Prince’s actions were unnecessary, he would not foolishly refute the First Prince’s decision.
Their goal for this trip was Riverside County. Rumor had it that one night, the northwest side of Riverside County suddenly began to shine brightly, and thousands of people personally witnessed the shocking scene. A brilliant dragon shadow hovered in the air, and they even heard the dragon’s roar.
However, it only lasted for a short period of time and did not appear again afterwards.
Huo Yiloong did not believe it at all, but hearing rumors like this happening year after year, it was not strange at all.
However, the First Prince was currently worrying about the Emperor’s birthday. When he heard the news, he could no longer sit still. Regardless of whether it was true or false, he had to personally pay a visit before finding out.
Thus, their trip to Riverside County took place.
Huo Yiloong thought that after arriving at He He County, the rumors would spread by themselves, but he never expected that the local people would spread it to be even more outrageous.
Fortunately, there were no princes in the palace recently. Otherwise, this rumor alone would have been enough to kill the child eight times over.
“This is already the third day. Just you wait. It’s not as if you need these next few days.” Huo Yiloong waved his hands, getting the guards to withdraw, and then sat cross-legged on the bed, meditating.
These days, when he was cultivating, he could not concentrate at all. He thought it was the side effects of being drugged, but after seeing it, the doctors all said that he was healthy without any problems.
Huo Yiloong calmed his Qi and channeled his Qi to his body, circulating it through his meridians. Normally, at times like this, he would be able to feel a dense amount of Profound Spirit Qi in his Dantian, making his whole body comfortable, but now, after circulating it for a full cycle, he did not feel a thing.
Could it be that his Flame Yang Spell had already reached a bottleneck?
The Flame Yang Spell had a total of five floors. He had just passed the second floor not long ago, so he shouldn’t have reached the bottleneck so quickly.
Huo Yiloong was a little agitated in his heart, secretly regretting his actions. If his father knew that he was so close to the First Prince, he would definitely be flogged.
