Escaped Medical Concubine - C254

On the twenty-seventh day of the fifth month of the year 346 of the Yunmeng calendar, the Emperor of the Southern Champion Kingdom passed away from illness. He ordered the King to return to the capital shoulder by shoulder and conferred the title of the Prime Minister of the Regent.

This had always been the result of the nine days of waiting in the palace side by side, thus, after many years of struggle between the emperor and officials, he had emerged as the victor, holding the authority of the Southern Champion Kingdom and using the Regent’s name to assist in the succession of the newly-born monarch.

Filled with self-confidence, the palace shoulder to shoulder for nine days set off back to the Southern Champion Ancestor Dragon, handing over the great authority of Fengyuan to the Crown Prince Shang Qiuyuan.

Shang Qiuyuan was present in Pingcheng, and in the interim, he had taken over the management of all matters in the place of Prince Jian. As he sat in the great hall, the first thing he did was to have all the generals under the Shoulder King come to pay their respects. It was up to Zuo Si to announce the orders of the Shoulder King.

“Young prince, this matter has been settled long ago. All the generals are waiting at the front, waiting for young prince to order.”

Shang Qiuyuan nodded, the janissaries from the old days were by his side. He slowly walked out of the hall, the hall was suddenly silent, everyone then kneeled on the ground, “This general greets young prince.”

He swept his gaze across the generals. He had been waiting for this moment for too long. Finally, there would be a day when the arrogant and unruly people who mocked him for humiliating him would kneel at his feet and bow down before him.

“Get up.”

The generals stood on both sides of him. Shang Qiuyuan once again swept his gaze across the generals. Wherever his gaze passed by, all the generals lowered their heads. But now, Shang Qiuyuan’s gaze caused them to feel a great sense of pressure.

The five countries’ famous Commander Bai Lian held a different place in their hearts. Ever since they had started fighting in Fengyuan, they had been following Shang Qiuyuan and attacking cities and cities, and had long been convinced of his abilities. Not to mention that with the order from the King, no one dared to disobey Shang Qiuyuan.

They could still remember the city of Fenrir that was stained with blood, and the red palace, as well as the scene of Shang Qiuyuan’s ruthlessness and methods.

They had already understood that under that seemingly gentle and handsome face, there was a heart of steel within that refined body. Shang Qiuyuan’s prestige was built up by himself. It was not only because of his past reputation and military merits, but also because of his achievements and his slaughter after entering the military.

The generals once again faced Shang Qiuyuan. They could feel the faint pressure and pressure from this once refined and calm marshal.

Shang Qiuyuan, who was sitting on the King’s throne next to her, was no longer refined or indifferent. His entire body was emitting a cold air, causing them to not dare to look straight at him.

“Father went back to discuss the matters of the country with me. Before he left, he ordered me to command everything here. From today onwards, anyone who dares to go against the military order will be punished by the military law, and I will not slack off in any way.”

All the generals lowered their heads and said in unison, “This general shall obey the orders of the young prince without being negligent!”

The military order from Shang Qiuyuan was issued in an orderly manner. The generals were ordered to retreat while Zuo Si silently watched from the side. He understood why the King Shoulder had left the military medallion and handed it over to Shang Qiuyuan. It was because he was only a strategist and was only suitable for advice, but lacked the courage to command an army.

This was also the second time that they had stood shoulder to shoulder with the palace for nine days in an attempt to probe Shang Qiuyuan.

Be it loyalty or adultery, when the palace was not at the ninth day, Shang Qiuyuan’s heart could be seen most clearly. If he wanted to take action, he had to take advantage of this opportunity to keep Shang Qiuyuan in the flat city. No matter what Shang Qiuyuan did, it would not be able to escape his eyes, the eyes and spies left behind by the King.

If Shang Qiuyuan really wanted to do something that would harm the nine heavens of the palace, then the military order and military order would no longer be of any use.

Zuo Si sneered. There were some things that didn’t require the King to hand down his orders. His permission was just a useless military order.

After dealing with all these matters, Shang Qiuyuan looked at Zuo Si and said, “Advisor, please take a seat.”

“I dare not, how could I dare to be rude in front of the young prince?”

Shang Qiuyuan smiled. “Military Advisor, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. Even Royal Father has a seat in front of him, not to mention me.”

Zuo Si looked calm and composed, but he didn’t seem to be restrained at all. “Thank you, young master, for the seat.”

He sat by Shang Qiuyuan’s side. For the past few days, his actions had made it impossible for him to find any fault with Shang Qiuyuan. He also rarely spoke, only following Shang Qiuyuan’s military order.

“Does royal father have any news?”

Shang Qiuyuan sighed in his heart. He would only find out late about the news of the Southern Champion Ancestor Dragon, but he knew that the spy left behind by the Nine Heavens Palace was definitely in the hands of Zuo Si.

“Reporting to your highness, your highness will be entering the Dragon City today. If there is any special news, I will definitely report it to your highness as soon as possible.”

“I’m very worried.”

He had the nagging feeling that there was something about it that he did not know, but if it was something that even the Nine Heavens Palace’s spies could not find out, how would he know?

“Young Marquis, what are you worried about?”

“I’m worried about royal father. I hope my worries are unnecessary.”

Zuo Si cast a sidelong glance at Shang Qiuyuan, feeling that he was still unable to see through this young prince. Was he really worried about the King sitting side by side, or was he just putting on an act for him?

He secretly guessed that there was no need for Shang Qiuyuan to perform for him to see, it seemed that he was truly worried.

That night, Shang Qiuyuan was deep in thought in his room, when the faint sound of the wind attracted his attention. He raised his eyes to take a look at the house beams. He knew that an uninvited guest had arrived. The person who had managed to avoid the layers of guards and enter this place was undoubtedly an expert amongst experts. He did not say anything. There was no killing intent on this person’s body, so he must have come for some reason.

He was waiting. He did not know if this person was a spy from the King. However, the King did not need to risk going into the city’s garrison to look for Zou Si.

It was unknown when, but a black shadow had already appeared in the corner of the room and blended with the surrounding shadows.

“Greetings, marshal. I am here on the orders of the esteemed lady.”

There was no aura on the black shadow’s body. Upon landing, he saw Shang Qiuyuan’s sharp eyes staring at him as he hurriedly knelt in the shadows, indicating his intentions for coming here.

“Which lady sent you?”

“He is an old friend of the marshal. Your adopted sister, the esteemed imperial concubine, ordered the marshal to bring something over. From now on, please take a seat at the Drunken Immortal Tavern in Ping City. In the future, someone will spread the news to the Drunken Immortal Tavern.”

“Why did the Empress send you here?”

The black shadow took out a piece of white silk and said, “The Empress ordered me to pass this item to the Grand Marshal. The black shadow took out a piece of white silk and said,” The Empress ordered me to pass this item to the Grand Marshal.

“Got it.”

“This lowly official will take his leave.”

The black shadow placed the white silk on the ground and disappeared into the darkness. Soon, it disappeared from the Guardian’s Mansion.

Shang Qiuyuan walked over and picked up the white silk on the ground. When he saw Bai Ling, he believed that Ji Tian Ning had sent her. She was the only one who could use this method to transmit the Wordless Heavenly Tome.

However, Shang Qiuyuan was still extremely puzzled. She was already in the palace, how did she manage to get an expert to secretly transmit information for her? Besides, judging from the title of that expert, he should be one of the Emperor’s subjects.

After a quick check to make sure there were no suspicious people around, Shang Qiuyuan placed the white silk into the water. Slowly, faint words began to appear on the white silk. Shang Qiuyuan sucked in a breath of cold air, all his secrets were now understood.

He hastily washed off the writing on the white silk and poured out the water in the basin. His heart was in turmoil as he stood by the window and pondered for a long time. Finally, he ordered people to call over the golden guardians.

The nine days before the palace’s departure had been very thoughtful. He had transferred some of his old tribe over, and he had left behind a few people to accompany him at all times. These people were people he could completely trust.

The Golden Armor and the others were ordered to leave. Shang Qiuyuan knew that as long as he didn’t make any big movements and did anything harmful to the King, the men of the King would not make any movements.

“It should have already begun, and I don’t know who won in the end. Luckily Ning’er sent me a message, otherwise, I might have been in the dark for many days.” This matter, I believe that Zuth will not be able to get any definite information about it in the near future, and thus can let me arrange everything beforehand. ”

Staring at the chilly moon in the sky, Shang Qiuyuan knew that it would be another sleepless night. Tonight would be the ninth day of the palace entering Dragon City. Presumably, the fierce competition had already begun. It was an extremely rare opportunity for him to see whoever won or lost.

“Men, invite the Left Military Advisor.”

It was already night time. Zuo Si had some doubts, as there should not be any urgent matters to deal with right now. He brought a few guards with him to wait outside the courtyard and entered Shang Qiuyuan’s room alone.

“This subject pays his respect to the young prince.”

“Military Advisor, I suddenly feel a pain in my heart. I can’t sit still.”

“Young Marquis, why are you like this? However, my body is not feeling well. This subject will call the military doctors to treat Young Prince’s illness. ”

“No, I don’t know why, but I feel like something big is going to happen. This matter has to do with my father.”

“Young prince, why do you think that?”

“Father and son are linked. Just now, my heart was suddenly filled with pain and cold sweat. My heart was anxious and anxious, fearing that my father would be in danger. Zuo Si, you have ordered your spies to scout out the area and send back news of your father every day. “Also, immediately order all generals to get ready for battle and to keep them on high alert.”

“Has young prince learned of some news?”

Zuo Si’s eyes flickered as he looked at Shang Qiuyuan. He suspected that Shang Qiuyuan’s action was to seize control of the spy in his hands, but he could not hand this over to Shang Qiuyuan.

Shang Qiuyuan grasped Zuo Si’s arm tightly and shook his head, “How would I know something that even the Military Advisor doesn’t know? It’s just …”

Shang Qiuyuan tightly clutched his chest, his face pale and dripping with cold sweat as he gazed towards the south, in the direction of the Ancestral Dragon.

“Young prince, is it okay for this subject to call a military doctor to diagnose and treat young prince?”

“There’s no need, Military Advisor. You should secretly arrange father’s concubine in a place no one knows about and ensure that she is strictly guarded. Also, arrange for a few pregnant women who are similar to the three of them to stay in the mansion. Hopefully, my premonition and anxiety were wrong and my father had returned safely. “Zuo Si, go and make the arrangements.”

Shang Qiuyuan feebly sat down, leaning back in his chair. His face was full of worry as he painfully creased his elegant brows, cold sweat unceasingly dripping down his face.

“Please do not worry, young prince. If there is any news from the prince, I will report it immediately.”

Seeing Shang Qiuyuan weakly nod his head, Zuo Si left, filled with doubts. Even so, he still passed down Shang Qiuyuan’s military order and carried out the arrangements according to Shang Qiuyuan’s instructions.

On the morning of the next day, only then did Shang Qiuyuan fall into a light sleep. Suddenly, he heard the sound of someone running to the door and hurriedly got up. He slept in his clothes, so he only tidied up a little.

“Young prince, the Military Advisor requests to see you.”

Shang Qiuyuan had already instructed his subordinates to address him as the young prince, so that they would understand what identity he was using to replace the one in charge of the King’s military affairs.

“Invite the advisor in.”

Zuo Si quickly walked in, not caring about giving Shang Qiuyuan a proper greeting. Looking at Shang Qiuyuan’s appearance, he knew that Shang Qiuyuan might have been sleepless the entire night.

He leaned close to Shang Qiuyuan and whispered, “Reporting to the young prince, something has happened to Zu Long.”

Shang Qiuyuan grabbed Zuo Si, “How is father?”

Zuo Si’s eyes flickered as he looked at Shang Qiuyuan. “How does young prince know that it has something to do with you?”

“Zuo Si, Zu Long is fine. Royal Father entered the Zu dragon last night and you rushed over early this morning to report to him. Who is it that has nothing to do with royal father? I fell asleep in the early hours of the morning and suddenly had a nightmare. You don’t have to suspect anything.

“Zu Long has changed a lot, but this official still doesn’t know what happened.”

Shang Qiuyuan stared at Zuo Si, “Is there any news from royal father? Did royal father enter the palace last night?”

“Your highness entered the palace last night, and has not left yet. Rumor has it that there was a huge change in the palace last night, and the gates have already been sealed.”
