Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C1045 1044 Homicide
It was still the same wooden house. It was still the same gentle looking man in the luxurious clothing. He had a kind and amiable face when facing his subordinates.
Only those who were familiar with him would know that under this kind of kind face was a ambition that was perfectly concealed.
After the man in black finished speaking, there was no reply. He was in no hurry. He had been by his master’s side for decades, so she was naturally very familiar with his master’s temperament.
Behind that calmness was a profound mystery, a foresight.
After a long while, an emotionless sneer came from his mouth. “This King’s younger brother cannot be underestimated.”
He had never dared to underestimate them, so even the simple and crude matter of assassination had been arranged so meticulously that he was afraid of being seen through.
That’s right, in the Yizhou, that mysterious power had come from his kind hands, and it was unknown if his little brother suspected him or not.
That day in the study room, Yan Yuan had told him everything that he knew, and even now, he still could not figure out if that Ninth Brother of his actually believed him without reservation or used those things to test him.
He squinted his eyes. He had once felt that the throne of the Easternum was right in front of him, just a little bit more, but he missed it by a small margin.
How could he be willing to accept this.
For decades, he had pretended to be indifferent to politics and had pretended for decades. Only the heavens knew how much he longed for that position and the feeling of having the world in his hands.
However, his opponents were too strong, and the younger brothers that he had high hopes for were all sincerely supporting the young Emperor. He was their older brother, and he had the ability and capital to support them.
He sincerely valued his little brothers and had also thought that if he could master this world, he would treat them better than Yan Shuo and cherish them.
However, he also knew that if his brothers didn’t die, then he would be the biggest obstacle in this world.
He ruthlessly attacked them. When he found out that his ninth sister’s fate was unknown, he was both heartbroken and happy. It took him several months to recover from the conflict in his heart.
This was his youngest brother. Although he was not born from the same mother, he was like the previous Emperor, and treated him like a brother from the same mother.
It was said that the Tian Family was the most heartless family. Father, son, brothers, their affection for each other was extremely weak. However, he …
After thinking for a long time, Yan Xie’s face loosened up a little, and his indifferent eyes revealed a bit more pain. After a while, he said: “Since they have found out, then Long Di naturally cannot stay.”
Long Di and him were inextricably linked, and they were not idiots like the Second Prince Long Kan. If Yan Xiao followed the clues left behind on Long Di’s body, they would find out about him sooner or later.
Even though everything was ready, he wanted a perfect body. If he could leave his brothers alive, that would be for the best. If not …
The hand of benevolence tightened. Since the Tian Family had never had a close family relationship before, they naturally had to know how to choose.
“Yes, this subordinate will go and kill Long Di now.”
Long Di, this person has a crucial role to play in this matter, he did not dare to go hand in hand with others, it would be better if he could do it himself.
Kindness did not stop him from speaking, but he nodded and tacitly agreed with his thoughts.
Not long after the king of New Yi Kingdom handed over Long Kan, she once again received an imperial edict from the Heavenly Court stating that the real owner of the underground passage was Crown Prince Long Di and that the second prince Long Kan was only the scapegoat.
When the king received the edict, he was paralyzed.
Long Di was his most beloved son. He had placed all the hope of New Yi Kingdom on him, and when he found out that the water channel had nothing to do with the crown prince, he even heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as it wasn’t the crown prince, he wouldn’t care about losing one or two sons of the others. But now …
On one side was his beloved son, and on the other was the mighty and powerful Upper Sky Empire.
He knew that the current New Yi Country had no way to fight against the Sky Empire. Was he going to abandon the entire people of New Yi Country for his son?
But if he were to call out to Long Di …
His most precious son.
In just one night, the King of New Yi fell into a coma. After the Crown Prince knew that the Emperor had found out that she was the one in charge, he was worried that his father would hand him over like a second brother.
However, in the blink of an eye, the news arrived. It was that his father was gravely ill.
He was happy and worried. He was glad that the king was so ill, which meant that the court was in his hands now, and he didn’t have to worry about his father handing him over.
What he was worried about was that his secret would be discovered by the court officials. This meant that many people would not accept him, and would even secretly cause trouble for him.
Furthermore, he was not sure what actions would be taken at Easternum …
“Someone, come.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Go, tell King Carefree that I want to see him alone.”
Just as the guard was about to leave, he heard a low and gloomy voice come from the darkness, “There’s no need. If Your Highness has anything to say, you can just tell me.”
This voice wasn’t unfamiliar to Long Di. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he waved to the guard, signalling him to go down. After the door to the study closed, that person walked out from the shadows.
Long Di wasn’t on guard against him at all, and he hurriedly said: “King Carefree should have received the news as well, I’ve been exposed, did you bring along the words of King Carefree to me? What does he want to do now?”
“My prince means …”
With a thick cocoon on his hand, he slowly extended towards the sword at his waist. Immediately afterwards, a blinding sword light flashed, and the sharp blade came out of its scabbard, directly aiming to stab towards the defenseless Long Di.
That movement happened in a split-second. Even if Long Di wanted to dodge, it was already too late.
He looked on helplessly as the sharp blade streaked past his eyes. He thought that he was dead for sure this time. He was angry and unwilling at the same time.
But in the next second, the expected death did not come. He could only hear the clashing of blades before his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, there was a soul-stirring battle sound.
He gradually opened his eyes. In front of him, other than the person who wanted to kill him, there were three or four other experts whose martial arts were similarly not weak.
The martial arts of these people were obviously not the guards under his command, and he did not recognize them.
Why would these people hide in the shadows and save him when the people from the King Carefree came to kill him?
Long Di had too many questions in his heart, but these things were far less important than his own life.
Taking advantage of the time when these people were fighting, he quickly rushed out of the study and escaped. “Someone come! There’s an assassin! Quickly catch him!”
“Someone come quickly …” “Catch the assassin …”
