Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1472 - 1410: Someone Wants to Kill You

The mid-autumn moon was full in August, and the garden at Changqing Residence was adorned with many lanterns. A few octagonal Palace Lanterns hung from the small pavilion. Tonight, there was no wind, only the floating fragrance of osmanthus and the rich aroma of wine.

Wufu and Noble Master Ah Jiu sat in a triangular arrangement in the pavilion, with several dishes to accompany the drinks and festive mooncakes on the table.

"Wufu, I wish you a happy reunion," Master Gui raised his wine cup in a toast to Wufu.

A reunion of people and the moon, nicely said. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Wufu glanced at Ah Jiu, also raised his wine cup in return, "I also wish Master Gui all the best in everything."

The two drank their wine in one gulp, and Ah Jiu took the wine pot and poured more for the two.

Master Gui felt a bit flattered and slightly avoided, but Ah Jiu held his hand steady and filled it up.

"I also offer a toast to Master Gui," Ah Jiu smiled slightly, "I’m not good with words; I see Master Gui still living alone, looking lonely, so I wish you an early discovery of a fitting wife."

Pfft!

Wufu spit out a mouthful of wine, glancing at Ah Jiu, are you deliberately mocking him?

Ah Jiu was incredibly calm, stating it was a fact!

As it’s high time to get married rather than just watching others.

Master Gui was also taken aback, his mouth twitched a bit, "Then I accept your kind words."

The two clinked their cups together, the crisp sound brought out many sparks.

How childish!

Wufu picked up a chopstick worth of cold dish, chewing while observing the two, my goodness, they’re just engaging in drinking contests.

"Ninth Master... no, perhaps I should call you Prince Jin?" Master Gui rubbed the rim of his wine cup, looking at Ah Jiu.

Wufu paused in her sipping action and looked at Master Gui.

Ah Jiu showed no surprise and smiled, "Master Gui is indeed well-informed, no wonder you are the Pavilion Master of Wind-Listening Pavilion and manage such a large Noble House."

You exposed my identity, but can’t I expose yours? Everyone has their secrets, neither should laugh at the other’s shortcomings.

"There’s no need for the Prince to act like it’s a state of emergency, I mean no harm."

"You misunderstood, this is not a state of emergency. I, the prince, do not change my name nor surname, and entering Changan City means there’s nothing to fear!" Ah Jiu said calmly.

"Indeed," Master Gui glanced at the people in the garden and those hidden in the shadows, and said, "the Prince has so many capable people under him, there’s truly nothing to fear."

Ah Jiu lightly sipped on his wine glass.

"However, no matter how many capable people there are, there may still be places of oversight. The Prince’s status is noble, and many are secretly watching you!" Master Gui said.

Before Ah Jiu could speak, Wufu furrowed her brows, saying, "Master Gui, do you know something? Feel free to share, we will surely remember your kindness."

This sounded as if someone was targeting Ah Jiu, who?

Master Gui heard the care in her words for Ah Jiu, feeling a bit dark inside, his mouth twitching, "Someone spent one hundred thousand taels of silver to seek out Wind-Listening Pavilion, wanting the top three elite assassins to take the prince’s life."

"Who!" Wufu’s voice suddenly turned cold, applying slight force inadvertently, shattering the wine cup in her hand.

Ah Jiu frowned, took a handkerchief to wipe her hand clean, and chided, "Look at you, what are you getting excited for, how will you manage if you injure yourself?"

Wufu glanced down and retracted her hand, "I’m fine!"

Upon hearing someone wanted to kill him, she became agitated, who had the audacity to hatch such a plan?
