Warrior King’s Splendid Love - C283 Conspiracy (2)
“That’s one of the reasons, of course, but there’s no such thing as a free lunch.” The man in black said, “I helped you. After this matter is completed, you must agree to give the position of the My Xiao Country’s State Grandmaster, and allow my career as an official to come to an end. ”
So that’s how it is, Xuanyuan Zhan thought in his heart. He could not help but snort and say, that’s right, why would there be people that did not covet fame and fortune.
“Alright, I promise you!” Xuanyuan Zhan said.
“If that’s the case, then do as I say.” “Right now, Xuanyuan Zhan, Empress Feng Yu, and the little crown prince are all not in the palace, and even that old thing, Xuanyuan Mo, is in bed due to your anger. The only person who can threaten you right now is only Rou Meier, and if she disappears, there’s no one to control you anymore, then isn’t everything still up to you?”
“But she belongs to that woman Xifeng and Shuo.” Xuanyuan Zhan was somewhat indecisive.
“So what? Xifeng and Shuo, that woman is not without flaws. With me by your side, what are you afraid of? Just do it obediently? Or do you really want to send you to the guillotine when they come back? ”
Upon hearing about going to the guillotine, Xuanyuan Zhan’s heart trembled. “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
“Don’t worry. Listen to me. I guarantee that this throne will definitely be yours.” The man in black turned to leave.
“When are you coming back?” Xuanyuan Zhan said. Rou Meier, that woman, has extraordinary kung fu, I am afraid … ”
“What are you afraid of? “Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to protect you.” The man in black said.
The black-clothed man stood on the roof of the palace, and smiled faintly as he looked in the direction of Xuanyuan Zhan’s sleeping quarters.
That’s right! Everyone loved fame and fortune. If a person who had nothing was able to make them feel how good or bad fame was, perhaps they would not do this, but once they let him be tainted with fame and benefits, he would go crazy. Once someone wanted to take back all of this from him, he would go and protect them without a care for his own safety.
Humph! All of this was the best time for others to make use of.
“Master!” In the dark night, a black clothed man rode a light movement technique and came over, kneeling beside the black clothed man.
“You should know the layout of the palace well!”
“From today onwards, you will stay by his side and watch over him.” The man in black said.
The next day.
“Chenqie pays her respects to Your Majesty.” Rou Meier’s weak and boneless voice came out.
Xuanyuan Zhan looked up and his expression immediately changed, “All of you can leave now.”
The crowd left and closed the door to the imperial study.
“How is it? Have you decided yet? ” Rou Meier’s face changed.
“What’s the rush?” Xuanyuan Zhan tried to curry favor with them, “Isn’t it still quite some time before they return? Furthermore, if I leave and there is no Emperor before the real Xuanyuan Zhan returns, those ministers will suspect me. ”
“Do I have a way to deal with all of this? Just leave. ” Rou Meier said, and turned to leave.
Looking at Rou Meier’s leaving figure, Xuanyuan Zhan gnashed his teeth in hatred.
“He can’t stand it anymore?” A man’s voice sounded.
“Who are you?” Xuanyuan Zhan was shocked.
“Don’t you know who I am?” “I came to help you.”
“Who are you?”
Hearing that the man admitted it, Xuanyuan Zhan could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
“Hurry up and help me. I want that woman to disappear.” Xuanyuan Zhan said angrily.
“Don’t worry, you’ll be able to torture her as much as you want very soon.” After saying that, the man bent down and whispered something into Xuanyuan Zhan’s ear.
Inside Rou Meier’s palace.
In the past few days, Rou Meier had always been a little anxious in her heart. She had always felt that it wouldn’t be so easy for Xuanyuan Zhan to give up the rights that he already had. That’s right, it was hard to predict other people’s hearts. Once a person gained fame and benefits, everything else would no longer be important.
Sure enough.
“Who are you?” Rou Meier was very vigilant of the man’s arrival.
“Tsk tsk tsk tsk!” It was said that the women of the Xifeng Kingdom were all beautiful like jade. Seeing each other today, he truly deserved his reputation. “What a pity.” The man raised his eyebrow, just as he finished speaking, he attacked Rou Meier.
Rou Meier turned and dodged. The man only laughed, and didn’t make any movements. Rou Meier had doubts in her heart, but she was still distracted for just a moment. Rou Meier suddenly realized that she couldn’t move, how could this happen? She was clearly just standing there doing nothing? Rou Meier could not help but feel shocked. Just how did he do it?
The man laughed, then walked to Rou Meier’s side. With a cold snort, he left Rou Meier’s side.
“Xiao Dezi.” Xuanyuan Zhan said.
“Your servant is here.”
“Bring people to Rou Fei’s place. Capture her for me and throw her into the prison.” Xuanyuan Zhan said.
When those guards locked him in the dungeon, whose entire body had gone limp, Rou Meier could not believe what had just happened. He had really underestimated that puppet.
This matter quickly spread throughout the imperial court. In the entire imperial court, every single one of the civil and military officials were clapping their hands in celebration.
All he was thinking was that Rou Meier had messed with His Majesty, murdered the empress, made her act arrogantly all day without putting anyone in her eyes.
In the main hall.
“Everyone, I know that in the past few days, my personality has become tyrannical, and I’m truly ashamed of myself for killing only the ministers of the imperial court.” Xuanyuan Zhan said.
The ministers looked at each other. They had no idea what was going on.
Why does the king seem like a completely different person today? Mu Ming asked, puzzled.
“I know that all the ministers are puzzled, but I …” “Sigh!” Xuanyuan Zhan wanted to say something but hesitated.
“Zhen has let down the old Grand Preceptor …” Xuanyuan Zhan said, “We did not know that Rou Meier was actually someone from the Xifeng Kingdom, they are experts in using Gu arts to bewitch people, she bewitched us, and made us listen to her, and harmed many ministers in the imperial court.”
“Fortunately, two days ago, I visited and met an expert who managed to dispel the Gu that was in my body. “It was only then that I understood and came back to my senses.”
“Your Majesty, there is no need to blame yourself. Very few people in this world have managed to master the Xifeng Kingdom’s Voodoo Gu technique. It is reasonable that Your Majesty was deceived.” At this time, a man dressed like a Daoist who had been standing beside Xuanyuan Zhan said, “If it was not for the fact that this humble one had met such a person in my past life, this humble one would not have been able to deal with him.”
“So that’s how it is!” The officials whispered amongst themselves.
“All of Your Majesty’s actions did not come from his heart, it was all done by that demoness, Rou Meier. A minister said.
“This demoness, she deceived us and even caused the death of the empress. Father was so sick that he fell into bed. This Emperor orders that we will show her to the masses three days from now.” Xuanyuan Zhan said.
“Your majesty is wise!”
In the dungeon.
Rou Meier was trapped in the dungeon, her hands and feet were tied with iron chains, and her entire body was covered with wounds.
“Crash!” A basin of ice-cold water woke Rou Meier up from her slumber.
Rou Meier slowly woke up, and to her shock, she found that the one standing in front of him was Xuanyuan Zhan.
“You, you despicable scumbag!” Rou Meier roared.
“Bastard, is this us, you, someone you can scold as you please?” Xuanyuan Zhan said arrogantly.
“Me?” Rou Meier said, and then laughed out loud, “You really think you are the emperor. Don’t forget who put you in this position. You dare to capture me? ”
“Humph!” Hearing Rou Meier’s unrelenting words, Xuanyuan Zhan’s expression became even more sinister, he raised the whip in his hand and lashed out at Rou Meier.
“Look at you. You’re disgusting.” Xuanyuan Zhan said, “Oh right, let me tell you a piece of good news. In three days you will be cut down. Unfortunately, you will never see how your Xifeng Kingdom was flattened by me again. “Hahaha!”
“You!” Rou Meier was shocked, what did he mean by those words? What did he want to do to the king?
Damn it! The dark and damp dungeon was devoid of people, and only Rou Meier was trapped here. No, not even a guard. But Rou Meier knew in her heart that even if that was the case, she wouldn’t be able to escape. This dungeon was impregnable. Furthermore, her body was so weak right now. There was no way for him to run out.
Humph! Rou Meier sneered, it was unknown if she was laughing at herself or at others.
Life, what a joke!
Beijing.
When Xuanyuan Zhan and his group returned to the capital, they discovered that the defense of the capital seemed to have been strengthened even before entering the city.
“What’s going on?” Feng Yu asked.
“That’s right!” Didn’t Xifeng and Shuo say that she already had those two prepare to leave? “Then why …” Shangguan Yi pointed to the city guards outside the gates in the early morning and said helplessly.
“Looks like something has happened in the capital.” Xuanyuan Zhan said, “It seems like we can only disguise ourselves and infiltrate the capital to see what’s going on.”
“But we’ve all come back …” Shangguan Yi was obviously unconvinced, but when he saw everyone’s gazes, he could only shut his mouth.
Thanks to Xue Leng being an expert at disguising himself, coupled with Feng Yu’s modern cosmetics, the group of people were quickly decked out to the point that they didn’t look like themselves.
It was easy to get past the guards at the city gate and sneak into the capital.
“Where are we going next?”
“Isn’t that simple? Our families all have their own villas in the capital. Why don’t we just go there?” Murong Zhi said.
“No way!” Feng Yu said, “For a group of people like us, the target is too big. Furthermore, you guys have just left the capital not long ago. Now that you’re back, it’s hard to avoid people from suspecting you. ”
“I remember the Feng family had a courtyard outside of the capital. Ever since the Feng family was conferred the title, many of the villas have been destroyed. And now we can go there. ” Feng Yu said.
