Ferocious Princess - C416 What a disgrace

Hearing Shangguan Minghao asking about that thing, the black clothed man gritted his teeth. After being bitten like that, he felt his hands become numb, so he did not fight anymore.

“Yes, that is a snow-white habit that looks like a fox but also a tiger. It doesn’t look that big, but its reaction is abnormally fast, so your subordinate didn’t have much time to react. In order to complete the mission as fast as possible, your subordinate dodged it and quickly left, not finding any other problems!”

Shangguan Minghao’s attention turned entirely to this mysterious little thing. When he saw the description of the Divine Beasts at the front of the book, why did it look similar to the description his subordinate had given him.

This knowledge made Shangguan Minghao very afraid, what did he feel that he had neglected? Shangguan Minghao felt that if he was going to threaten his river and mountain, then he had to speed up his relationship with the National Lord Wei and directly take over the Zhuo Family’s people. Only then would he be able to solve the problem in his hands.

“Someone, come!” Shangguan Minghao made a gesture with his hand, and a man dressed in black appeared in front of him.

He waved his hand and said to the first man in black, “You may leave, continue watching!” Right now, other than this arrangement, he had no other choice. He could only have him monitor Zhuo Lei closely, “That’s right, all of you watch carefully, see if that person has the thing you were talking about!” Shangguan Minghao revealed a smile, and said.

That person cupped his fists and quickly retreated, then quickly disappeared within the Imperial study.

Shangguan Minghao then said to the man in front of him: “Hurry up and inform National Lord Wei that we want to meet him. Let him appear as soon as possible in front of us, or else we will not be able to protect his life.”

Shangguan Minghao was getting more and more nervous. Towards that book, although he did not know, he could not understand it, after all, those words did not seem to belong to the language of his own country, which made him even more afraid. If he had to leave that book behind, there would definitely be people who could comprehend it.

It seemed that he still had to make a trip to Fei Yan’s place. Last time, because he was too nervous and panicked, he believed in Fei Yan’s words.

However, before this, Shangguan Minghao wanted to meet Zhuo Lei first, it had been a long time since they last met, and on this mission, he dared to go against his, the smile on Shangguan Minghao’s lips became like the hot summer sun, it clearly didn’t look like he was trying to scare him, but it still pierced his eyes, and even his heart.

“Go, gather Zhuo Lei and enter the palace!” After Shangguan Minghao finished instructing, he returned to the table and looked at the stack of reports.

When Fei Yan finished reading all of the content, his brain was like a copy machine as it imprinted all of the content into her head. Fei Yan had no choice but to admire her photographic memory, this kind of ability was something that very few people knew, the reason why Fei Yan could remember everything that happened in the past, and even the symptoms of all kinds of medicine, she did not have enough energy to learn them.

When she was done, she quickly put the book away, but the hand holding the book was still shaking.

It had been a long time since she had a sense of crisis like this. Even if she didn’t have a memory then, even if something happened before, she had never felt this kind of pressure before, and she didn’t know when the sweat had drenched her clothes completely. When she thought of the method to remove the curse, she was initially somewhat happy, but soon after, she felt a little afraid.

Fei Yan used her other hand to pat his disappointing hand, but discovered that she was afraid in her heart, unable to close his hand in any way.

Closing her eyes, she tried her best to calm her heart. She slowly breathed in and out before finally letting out a breath. Only then did she realize that her heart had calmed down a lot.

When her emotions calmed down, she stood up and wanted to leave, but remembered that Zi Yan was still outside, and that her whereabouts would be known if she went out. She packed her things and placed them in a hidden place, then coughed lightly.

“Zi Yan, this I wants to take a bath. Go and prepare a bath for this I!” Fei Yan felt that her entire body was drenched, and secretly cursed herself in embarrassment. Although the things on the board were extremely terrifying, but she should not be scared like this, not to mention, haven’t I already seen him die, what’s there to be afraid of?

Fei Yan knew that Zi Yan was not far away from him, so she was not worried that Zi Yan would not hear him.

Actually, the only thing that Fei Yan did not understand was that she had just heard about the Profound Black Token. There should be a legend about it, and the book did not explain it in detail, it only mentioned a little, and that after the Blood Alliance was removed, the seal there would be opened.

Fei Yan was the noble empress, so her treatment was exceptionally good. With a special bath, it would not be easy for water to cool down in this kind of weather.

Actually, Fei Yan wanted to make use of this time to let Bai Yi return the things to his mysterious uncle. As for the other things, Fei Yan would personally explain them to him, at least for now.

Being in the bath, Fei Yan felt refreshed. She was really tired after taking care of things recently, but she didn’t know how it was going with him.

“Zi Yan, have you heard of the Black Token?” Fei Yan kept having the feeling that Zi Yan’s identity was still a little suspicious. At least speaking from the point of view of learning martial arts, since Shangguan Minghao had saved her before, her skills were lacking, but why did she fall into that kind of predicament? Hence, Fei Yan felt that Zi Yan had concealed something from him.

Zi Yan heard Fei Yan’s sudden words, her hands paused for a moment, but continued to move, and smiled at Fei Yan: “Empress, how would this servant know, this servant is a poor girl saved by the emperor, how would I know about this mysterious thing?”

Zi Yan thought that her words were watertight, but Fei Yan could hear all the loopholes in her words. Fei Yan’s face, which was hidden in the mist, revealed a hint of meaning, and with a few cool words, she lightly brushed past Zi Yan’s ears, but it was like a sharp blade, and without even feeling it, she already bled. When she felt pain, her hand was already injured.

“Zi Yan, the I seems to have told you that the I hates people who lie the most. Do you know how the I usually makes a person who lies disappear from the life of the I?” Fei Yan half asked and half told Zi Yan of her power.

Zi Yan immediately stopped what she was doing and knelt down. However, she liked Shangguan Minghao so much that she was absolutely loyal to him.

However, Fei Yan had already caught on to the loophole, so she was naturally not anxious at all. Gently lifting her lips, she slowly said: “When did I ever tell you that the Profound Black Token was mysterious? Even I herself didn’t know about it, yet you actually knew about it?” Through the mist, she looked Zi Yan straight in the eyes. “Also, when I asked you about the Profound Black Token, your hand trembled a little, and from that sentence, the strength of your hand started to vary. Zi Yan, you know I is not stupid, so you naturally know that even if you do not admit it now, I will think of a way to make you say that you know!” Fei Yan sneered, now she had to admit that she was using Zi Yan, but if she had not deceived her, she would not have done so.

Zi Yan had no way to refute him now. She was still pondering on how to open her mouth. “Reporting to the empress, this …”

“Reporting to the empress, the emperor wants you to wash up and go to the Imperial study!” Just as Zi Yan was thinking about how to speak, Fei Yan felt that it was more real.

Fei Yan scolded in her heart, but she knew that something was up. Shangguan Minghao would very likely come looking for him at this time, then she might have made some major discovery, or perhaps the emperor had found a special guest. Fei Yan did not hesitate either, temporarily putting aside the topic of conversation with Zi Yan.

“That’s right, Zi Yan, you can go back and think of the best way to answer that question. Although I seems to have a calm personality, she’s not someone who likes to wait!” Fei Yan turned her head towards someone who had already begun to secretly rejoice, and said seriously.

Now, it was Zi Yan’s turn. Fei Yan was very satisfied with Zi Yan’s expression at this moment, and her mood inexplicably brightened up.

“Zhuo Lei, we are very curious, have you not reported to us for a long time?” Shangguan Minghao looked at the very indifferent Zhuo Lei who was seated across him, and asked with a smile.

Zhuo Lei’s expression was very calm, even though Shangguan Minghao asked, Zhuo Lei did not waver in the slightest, “Reporting to the Emperor, the other party has really given too few clues, and I just found a clue, in the end, all the clues are all gone. This humble one is currently trying to find another way to break through, I hope the Emperor can give me some time.” Zhuo Lei was neither humble nor arrogant when he said these words, and he did not have a single trace of fear on his face.

This undoubtedly made Shangguan Minghao even angrier. It was obvious that the person in front of him was becoming more arrogant to the point that he was even more unbridled to himself.

“I’ve heard that you’ve been doing a lot of business recently!” Shangguan Minghao really did not believe it.

Zhuo Lei laughed coldly, but he looked calm on the surface as he looked at Shangguan Minghao and said, “Your majesty, this commoner is a merchant, so I can only do this a little. Moreover, the business is getting more and more difficult, if this commoner does not work hard, this commoner’s business will really collapse!” Zhuo Lei’s words were reasonable, but only he himself knew that, although there was no intent to rebel, but if there was one day when Shangguan Minghao slandered their Zhuo Mansion as having the intention to rebel, then he would definitely not allow his Zhuo Mansion to receive any harm. The only thing he did not listen to his father was that his Old General Zhuo completely listened to him, and did not resist at all.

Hearing Zhuo Lei’s words, Shangguan Minghao became even angrier, and directly looked at Zhuo Lei without showing any mercy, and laughed: “Zhuo Lei, you are actually very smart, but don’t be too smart to the point that you think you are too arrogant. We know your little tricks very well, and remember that this Jiang Shan is surnamed Shangguan, even if that child of Fei Yan is also Shangguan, and furthermore, now that child has disappeared without a trace, we are prepared to find a problem, don’t even think about using that child’s name to give you some ideas, let us see if we will give you a chance!” When Shangguan Minghao said this, he was only thinking of provoking Zhuo Lei, but he did not expect that because of his impatience, Fei Yan had already arrived at the door. The last few words he said, without missing a word, had landed in Fei Yan’s ears. Fei Yan’s heart was slightly hurt, maybe she felt that it was just a slight tremble, and was not really a big problem, she chuckled, pushed away Zi Yan’s hand that was supporting her, and walked straight in.
