Eternal Saint Doctor - C119
“Master, you, what did you say?” Staring at Qingyang in a daze, Shangguan Mu swallowed his saliva. “You can’t say such nonsense. I didn’t hear anything.”
Indeed, Shangguan Mu and the Shangguan family were very dissatisfied with the Nangrong family. However, they never had the thought of rebelling, not to mention helping one of the princes seize the throne.
Shangguan Mu only thought that if his powerful cultivation base made the Nan Rong family afraid in the future, he wouldn’t restrain the Shangguan family so much. He only acted as a deterrent and didn’t raise the flag to be a traitor.
It would be fine if they could really help the third prince seize the throne, but if they couldn’t, then it would be certain that the Nangrong family would annihilate the Shangguan family clan due to the anger that the Shangguan clan could not bear.
Not to mention the third prince, who was the least powerful among them all. Even the first prince, Nalan Rong, was defeated by the second prince, let alone the unarmed third prince, Nalan Ronglei.
He glanced contemptuously at Shangguan Mu, and naturally, Qingyang had guessed that Nan Ronglei would react this way. He said lightly: “I’ve already set up a restriction in this room. I’m just asking if you’re willing, so why are you so nervous?”
He finished the entire cup of tea in one breath and exhaled deeply. He then rolled his eyes and said to Qingyang, “Master, I’m not talking to you as a disciple. You can even say such outrageous words.”
“Insolence? Your Shangguan Family was born to be a servant of the Nangrong family? ” He lowered his head to drink the tea. He tapped the table lightly with his five fingers, but this seemingly ordinary remark once again stirred up a storm in Shangguan Mu’s heart.
“Master, you …” For the first time, anger towards Qingyang arose in his heart. Shangguan Mu couldn’t care about the name of master and disciple, and shouted directly at him.
“Weren’t you the one who said ‘treason’? “Since the Shangguan Family doesn’t want to be a servant of the Nangrong family, then how can my words be said to defy all principles?” Qingyang didn’t mind Shangguan Mu’s anger and rudeness. Instead, he asked with a smile.
Shangguan Mu was stunned, but he really couldn’t refute Qingyang. What Qingyang said was true, since he wasn’t willing to become a servant of the Nangrong family, the idea of seizing the throne didn’t seem too outrageous.
“I think that your belief that you belong to Nan Rong must be deeply rooted. That’s why you think that my words are a bit outrageous, right?” Seeing Shangguan Mu frozen on the side, Qingyang continued: “Helping the Third Prince seize the throne is not about letting the Shangguan family ascend to the throne. South Rongguo is still a member of the South Rongfu family, but your Shangguan family’s position will skyrocket.”
“Could it be that you think that this Nan Rong Lei is inferior to the South Rongyan Dragon?” He raised his eyes slightly to glance at Shangguan Mu before asking softly.
“I, I feel that the Third Prince is more than a level higher than the Second Prince in terms of character and temperament.” After hesitating for a moment, Shangguan Mu said lightly, “If the Third Prince can really ascend to the throne, he should be an enlightened monarch.”
“Since you feel this way, wouldn’t helping the Third Prince take the throne benefit the citizens?” “What’s so outrageous about that?” Seeing Shangguan Mu’s train of thoughts, Qingyang was overjoyed. However, no emotions could be seen on his face as he narrated it calmly like a spectator.
“However, the Third Prince doesn’t have anyone he can use. Right now, the Second Prince has overwhelming power. It’s easier said than done.” With a sigh, Shangguan Mu naturally knew Qingyang’s words were true. However, based on the current situation of the Third Prince, it was also true that he had taken the throne.
“Only a fool would use force to seize the throne. I believe that since the Third Prince is alive to this day, we should know quite a lot of things.” He rolled his eyes at Shangguan Mu before saying, “Do you think taking the throne is a fight between mortals? “This is a war of wits and tactics, and it is not something that can be decided overnight.”
Shangguan Mu pondered for a moment. Indeed, if he was well-prepared, he could decide who the throne belonged to. However, based on the current situation, it could only be a silent struggle for the throne.
“Then how should we help the Third Prince?” Shangguan Mu hastily said.
“Oh? You little rascal, you’re interested? ” Qing Yang smiled as he looked at Shangguan Mu, who was getting impatient.
“This, this is for the Shangguan Family to truly break away from the control of the Nangrong Family.” Scratching his head, Shangguan Mu smiled in embarrassment.
“There’s no need to worry. We still need to consider this matter carefully. However, tomorrow, we’ll need to find out what Nan Ronglei is thinking.” After drinking the cold tea in the cup, Qingyang’s eyes flashed with a ruthless light.
The next morning, Qingyang naturally followed Shangguan Mu to the Palace. When he arrived three years ago, his heart was filled with joy. However, three years later, Qingyang was secretly calculating how to get rid of this Nangrong family member.
After all, regardless of whether the Shangguan Family had taken part in the Azure Sun Village or not, the Nan Rong family had been confirmed by Qingyang as the mastermind.
Even if it hadn’t been for the actions of the South Rong family, based on the attitude that they had shown three years ago, the threat that they had faced, and Hong Tian’s murderous intent, he still wouldn’t have been able to take advantage of the South Rong family.
Qingyang is no longer that innocent youth who can be slaughtered and controlled by others. If anyone offends me, then I will not offend them. If anyone offends me, then I will be exterminated!
Shangguan Mu wasn’t in the mood to size up the palace, which had the same scenery as three years ago. He showed the Shangguan Family medallion at the palace gate, then familiarly brought Qingyang to the third prince’s sleeping quarters, the ‘Jinyang Palace’.
“Who are you?” With a loud shout, the two strong guards at the door raised their halberds and blocked the two men’s path.
“Shangguan Mu of the Shangguan family.” Shangguan Mu took out his medallion, exuding the aura of a superior being. “This is my guest, Mister Tai Yi.”
Bowing to the side, one of the guards said respectfully, “Third Prince is already waiting for you two in the palace. Please, Young Master Shangguan.”
“Yes.” Shangguan Mu replied indifferently. He then entered the Jinyang Palace with Qingyang. Qingyang couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration as he saw the fake mountains and strange stones in the pavilions of the pavilions. The third prince truly knew how to enjoy himself.
Compared to the solemn atmosphere outside the door just now, it was truly a comfortable feeling.
However, Qing Yang also discovered that apart from a few guards, there were many maids in the Jin Yang Palace. It was no wonder that people often spoke of prince Feng Liu. As expected, some of the guards were women.
“Brother First Great Brother, Brother Mu, you really have made me wait for quite some time. This wine is so cold that it has turned cold.” “Hahaha.” A familiar laugh rang out from the nearby room. The person who spoke was the third prince, Nan Ronglei.
After the sound was heard, the two of them left. When they arrived in front of the house, Nan Rong Lei appeared in front of the door and smiled at the two of them: “Brothers, quickly come in. If you don’t come soon, I’ll drink this jar of Immortal Ascension to the end myself.”
“I have been delayed on the way. Third Prince, please forgive me.” Shangguan Mu and Qingyang also walked into the room, cupping their hands in greeting.
A wooden table and four circular chairs were placed neatly in the middle of the room. It was obvious that they were prepared for the two of them. The interior of the room was also elegantly decorated.
“I didn’t expect the Third Prince to be so relaxed and elegant. He made the Jinyang Palace look like it was built in the middle of a mountain. Even this drinking place was built in the wilderness. It’s rare to see such a place like this.” With a light praise, Qingyang was impressed.
“Brother Taiyi, please excuse me. There are no outsiders here. Why don’t you just call me Nan Ronglei?” The third prince was quite open-minded and allowed Qingyang to call him by his name. It was obvious that the distance between the two of them was getting closer.
Smiling at Nanyang Ronglei, Qingyang didn’t put on any airs, “This is good as well. Third Prince’s way of addressing him is truly different from what it used to be.”
“Come, come, come. Let’s have a taste of this supreme immortal drunk. Tsk, tsk.” After the two men sat down, Nanyun Ronglei poured them a cup of wine. This Immortal was so intoxicated that the aroma of wine immediately filled the air.
“This is indeed a good wine. I did not expect that you would have such a fine wine. The last time I came, you did not give it to me to drink. It seems that you have benefited from brother Tai.” Raising his wine cup and sniffing the air, Shangguan Mu’s face lit up and he couldn’t help sighing.
“This wine is indeed of the highest quality.” With a chuckle, Qingyang raised his head to look at Nan Ronglei, “However, the restrictions in this room aren’t bad either.”
Upon hearing this, the smiling face of Nan Rong Lei paled, but that look of shock quickly disappeared, and he immediately laughed out loud: “The rules in the palace are unavoidable, if someone tries to break in, it’ll just be a precaution.”
“Oh? However, this is indeed what the royal family should do. ” Qingyang faintly glanced at the empty chair beside him before he stood up and looked at a corner of the room. He softly chuckled, “However, it seems that the three of us are not the only ones in this room.”
Hearing this, both Shangguan Mu and Nan Rong Lei were surprised, but Shangguan Mu was surprised that he didn’t find anyone else in the room, while Nan Rong Lei was surprised that he was thinking about something else.
“Since we’re in the house, why don’t we have a drink together? “Why are you hiding your face?” After returning to his seat, Qingyang raised his wine cup with a smile on his face, “Could it be that you want to make the two of us stay here?”
