Phoenix Returns - C73

That was true. Who wouldn’t think about such things? After all, this was the Nefarious Filthcloud Palace. Other than seducing the emperor, who would do such a shameless thing?

“Your Highness, I think you have misunderstood. Luo Qing is not a saint either. Although she also wants fame, she is definitely not after the harem. “Come over here and look at these paintings. Something’s wrong with them.”

Xue Wuhen clenched his fists tightly. Such a shameless drawing and he was telling him to look? How could the dignified crown prince look at such a filthy thing?

However, he still couldn’t help but get up and walk towards the wooden table. When he saw all the portraits on the table, he became dumbfounded.

The man and woman in the portrait were all taboos from the Snowy Orchid Empire, especially this woman. If the grand imperial concubine saw this, she would definitely sentence Luo Qing to death.

Xue Wuhen breathed heavily, tearing all the paintings on the table into pieces and closing the doors to the hall, afraid that anyone would see.

He grabbed Luo Qing’s arm and said, “How did you draw such a painting? Do you know that it would bring about a fatal disaster?”

“Oh ~ is that so? “I’m just curious about the man and woman in this painting, because this is the man who tried to assassinate me that night in the Ministry of Rites.”

“What?” You said this man assassinated you? ”

Xue Wuren’s face twitched, he was stunned! With a single glance, he could tell that he knew the truth behind it.

After slowly calming his breath, he asked, “When did you find out about this woman’s relationship with a man?”

“I saw it in a cave. That’s a mural. I couldn’t see it clearly in the cave at that time, but this man’s square face was quite prominent. I could recognize it with a glance. I just don’t know why he wanted to kill me.”

Xue Wuhen sighed, “Just pretend you didn’t see this. Otherwise, I won’t let you off while we’re in Xuelan, and my royal father won’t let you off either. It’s better for you to leave Xuelang City earlier, wherever you go, as long as you leave Xuelan.”

“This matter is related to my life and death, before I understand, I will not leave, and I hope that Your Highness can tell me a little.”

Xue Wuhen shut his eyes tightly. He sincerely wanted to help her leave. This matter had been going on for so many years, he did not know about it.

However, he had only heard his royal mother mention it before. His royal father had once had a terrible past; this was one of the great secrets of the imperial family of the Snowy Orchid Empire.

In the past few years, everyone had completely forgotten about this matter and no one brought it up. It was likely that the assassination of Luo Qing was related to that incident back then.

Luo Qing asked again: “Even if Your Highness did not say it, I would have investigated it myself. I don’t have to ask about other things, but as for whether I, Luo Qing, am alive or not, do you want me to stand idly by?”

“I’m not prepared for telling you, but I don’t know much about it. I don’t know if it will be useful to you. Twenty years ago, when my father went out on a trip to the snowy mountain, he brought back a woman. That woman was beautiful and when he came back he would take her as his concubine. They vowed to kill all of the Mu Family disciples in order to avenge their Imperial Bloodline. Then, Royal Father sent troops after them to encircle and annihilate the Mu Family Patriarch, Mu Jian Feng, in the midst of a snowy mountain. ”

“Then… What happened to the woman? ”

“Later on, when royal father returned to the palace, that woman had already left without a sound, leaving behind only a few portraits similar to yours. At that time, royal father was so angry that he vomited blood, unable to recover from his exhaustion.”

As a result, these paintings became forbidden words of the imperial family of Xuelan. The woman that Xue Feiyang had married back wore such a large green hat on her head. Of course, this was a humiliation to the imperial family, and no one could resist these discussions.

Then the reason Mu Jian Feng wanted to kill her was because he knew that it was very difficult in Xuelang Nation and he wanted to kill Xue Feiyang and stop her help.

If he did not get the nightingale zither, then the whole matter would be left to its own devices, watching the fall of the Snowy Court and its eventual destruction.

But with a nightingale, he would be able to give Shallan a chance at survival.

After understanding this, Master Chu finally understood why Mu Jian Feng wanted to kill her.

Seeing that Master Chu had remained silent, Xue Wu Hen continued, “I know about this, and I overheard the conversation between royal father and grandmother. I believe you also understand why Mu Jian Feng would want to assassinate you?”

“But if your royal father had already annihilated him in the snowy mountain, why didn’t he die?”

“Five years later, the Mu Clan’s power was re-established in the north. However, they were mostly in the business and did not involve any political power, nor did they have any grudges with the martial arts world. Although they also had the surname Mu, no one was sure that they were the descendants of Mu Sword Summit. In the blink of an eye, many years had passed and the Mu Clan and the imperial court had not been involved in this at all. My royal father also did not pursue the matter of the Mu Family. ”

Back then, the annihilation of the Mu Family was most likely related to a beautiful woman. She had a secret relationship with Mu Jian Feng and wanted to marry Xue Feifei later on.

However, because he didn’t want Xue Feiyang to know about the matter between her and Mu Sword Summit, he could only kill the Mu Family in one night.

Who knew that Mu Jian Feng would escape death and think that it was because Xue Feiyang had forcefully married that woman that he had tried to harm the Mu family?

Master Chu finally understood the relationship between the two of them. He looked at Xue Wuhen, but his heavy face pretended to be filled with many things.

It was because he was already exhausted from the danger of Xuelan and it was no wonder he wasn’t worried as he had charged out of Mu Sword Summit.

“I already know the cause and effect. From now on, you will pretend that you didn’t say anything to me. Of course, for my own safety, I won’t say anything.” The destruction of the previous Celestial Master Dynasty, wasn’t that the same thing as regaining control over the country? As long as there are people, the Heavenly Law will still exist! ”

Xue Wuhen placed his gaze on Luo Qing. She had suddenly mentioned the Heavenly Master Stage. Could it be that she …

He had once suspected that her zither skills caused the birds to dance wildly, and he had no choice but to connect her with the Chu Shiyu who had fought in the Western Territory.

However, with Xue Lan in the north, the Heavenly Jewel Master and Princess should have stayed behind to protect their Heavenly Jewel Master, otherwise they would not have come to the cold and bitter north.

However, from the very beginning, her body exuded a noble aura. That kind of arrogance and experience came from going through too many hardships.

Xue Wuhen said, “Rumor has it that the chief princess and master of Heavenly Master Tribe came back from the dead, helped my disciple seize power, killed off the God of War, and saved the neighbors in the south from the crisis in the west. In one night, tens of thousands of soldiers were lost, and in one battle, they made a name for themselves. I, Xue Wu Hen, long for such a prestige, and I am proud to have such a woman in the world. “But …” He suddenly released a fierce light, harshly saying, “I just don’t know the purpose of this Grand Princess coming to Xuelan.”

Chu Shiyu nodded and admitted that she was the Grand Princess of the Heavenly Master Kingdom, Chu Shiyu.

Even if Xue Wuhen wanted to harm her, he would not be able to kill her.

“Your Highness, don’t worry. This trip to the snowy plains is not a threat to the snowy plains. On the contrary, I will help the snowy plains to regain control of the land and drive these people out of the north.” When I helped the south, I only helped them for that reason. When the south was breached, Big Cang would lead the troops straight to the east and take down the Heavenly Master. Would I really be able to see the Heavenly Master fall into a quagmire again? ”

“But the snow orchid is far to the north, it has nothing to do with the Heavenly Master at all?”

“I believe Your Highness isn’t stupid. Do you still not understand the reason for Xue Lan’s predicament? Do you still have the Jade Dragon Scales?”

It was precisely because the dragon’s scale was not present that Xue Lan was in danger. Wasn’t she asking for it just because she knew it?
