Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl-Chapter 992 - : The Empress ’Ruthlessness
Chapter 992: The Empress ‘Ruthlessness
“Are we really going to do this?” Su Qiutang hesitated.
The Empress put away her teasing and got up from the phoenix bed with a serious expression. Her gauze fell to the ground, revealing her jade-like skin.” Those who achieve great things do not care about trifles. If possible, I do not want to do this. But at this point, whether it is us, him, or others, we are all secretly plotting. If we miss a move, we will be doomed!”
He paused for a moment and asked.
“Even if we stop, do you think those people below will agree? No way! They will force us to act, so we can only walk on.”
“Sigh! I was too kind.” Su Qiutang sighed helplessly.
“The Snow Rock Garden has completely disappeared. The people we sent to follow it have all been killed.”
The Empress didn’t care. It was just an abandoned chess piece. It wouldn’t be of much use. She ordered,” Pass down my order. Have people try to provoke the Wu Tribe and the Jin Kingdom. If it’s not enough, try to get the Five Elements Tribe to take action.”
Hiss!
Su Qiutang drew in a breath of cold air. Her elder sister was truly ruthless. If that happened, the borders of Great Xia would no longer be peaceful. Once the flames of war broke out, countless people would die.
Especially the Five Elements Tribe, which was made up of five tribes: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. Legend had it that in the distant antiquity times, their ancestors were comparable to gods and devils. They were powerful and had boundless vital essence, standing at the peak of the continent. Even if their people failed to live up to expectations after countless years and could not reach their prime, with their large population and the cultivation of a single “attribute”, the combined strength of the five tribes was stronger than ordinary small countries even though they could not compare to the dynasty.
The empress’s voice rang out again.” Even if we take action, the people of darkness will not be idle. Once a conflict is stirred up, they will think of ways to intensify it and turn it into a war, forcing His Majesty to pay more attention.”
“These damn rats!” Su Qiutang cursed.
“How are the preparations on Du Chengming’s side?”
Su Qiutang said,” Just a little more. Once the preparations are complete, Zhang Ronghua will lose his position. At the very least, he will be idle for a few years.”
The Empress shook her head. With his talent, the Shang Dynasty must be very afraid of him. If they can pay a price to completely eliminate him, I think they will agree.”
“This, this…!”
“Do as you’re told!” the Empress said.
“Good!” Su Qiutang agreed.
In the royal study.
The news of the Crown Prince’s assassination was sent back immediately.
After Wei Shang reported the matter, he shut his mouth and said no more.
“I understand.” The Xia Emperor’s expression was calm.
Wei Shang understood and ordered the True Dragon Palace to investigate. As for the rest, His Majesty had his own plans!
..
When Zhang Ronghua received the news, he had already returned to his residence. After hearing Zheng Qingyu’s words, his first reaction was that the person who attacked was definitely not the Empress. Someone could not sit still and wanted to attack the Crown Prince.
At this juncture, who could it be?
He instructed them to cultivate properly before rushing to the Eastern Palace.
They arrived at the Eastern Palace.
When he saw the Crown Prince sitting on the main seat, he bowed and asked,”Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” The Crown Prince shook his head.
He took the initiative to explain the matter.
The news was similar to what he had received. Someone was disguised as Crescent Moon and set up an ambush on the way to the Grand Tutor’s Mansion…
Pa! Pa!
The Crown Prince clapped his hands, and Dark Moon walked out from the darkness. His aura was restrained and he did not emit a single bit. Even if he stood behind him, he would not be noticed. He continued,” This is Dark Moon. Fortunately, she was there. She saw through the fake crescent moon’s identity and disguised herself as me to lure the thieves into taking the bait. We captured them all in one fell swoop.”
Zhang Ronghua glanced at the man who was wearing a black mask. He looked ordinary and did not have anything special about him. He restrained his phenomenon and used his Spiritual Clarity Eyes. He understood everything that he did not understand. He was actually a Saint Realm Soul Master. The Saint Realm was far above the King Realm and was comparable to the martial path of the Heavenly Sealing Realm. He also comprehended the Great Dao. How did the Crown Prince recruit such an expert? Could it be that the Xia Emperor had sent someone to protect him in secret?
“Did they speak?” he asked calmly, suppressing the strange feeling in his heart.
” We’re still interrogating him,” the Crown Prince said.” The masked man who escaped has been severely injured by Dark Moon. The True Dragon Palace has taken over the investigation, but there’s no news for now.”
“What do you want me to do?”
” No.” The Crown Prince shook his head.” The person involved in this matter is very powerful. It’s beyond your ability.”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t say anything else. He stayed for a while and left.
“How is it?” asked the Crown Prince.
“Rank 8 Zongshi realm!” Dark Moon said.
“That’s not what I’m asking.”
“Your talent is not bad, but it’s a pity that you were delayed by the mundane affairs of the officialdom. Otherwise, if you cultivate diligently, you might be able to reach my level in the future.”
The Crown Prince corrected him.” Martial arts are important, but officialdom is the right path. There are countless experts in the four departments. The Soul Palace is especially terrifying. It makes people’s expressions change. So what? I still don’t dare to act rashly.”
Dark Moon added in his heart. That was because the royal family’s foundation was terrifying, and the experts were strong enough!
After a pause, the Crown Prince reminded him solemnly.
” You have been exposed. From now on, follow me and don’t leave my sight. Otherwise, they will kill you!”
“Understood,” Dark Moon replied.
He left the Eastern Palace.
Zhang Ronghua walked towards the manor. It was already dark, and the wind was very strong tonight. There was no moonlight, and as it whistled, there was a loud sound. It was cold, and people couldn’t help but wrap their clothes tightly. freewёbnoνel.com
When they passed the Bridge of Love, they stopped and walked to the side, looking down at the river.
On the surface, it looked normal and there was nothing strange about it. However, there was an additional deathly stillness in the surroundings that people without strong six senses could not discover.
The night wind blew, causing ripples on the surface of the river. Occasionally, huge splashes would appear, and the smell of moisture was very strong. Under the murky river, there was a black carp about 20 centimeters long, hidden in the water grass, motionless.
To be precise, it was lying down as if it was dead. Other than it, no other aquatic creature dared to approach it.
The corners of his mouth curled up, and a playful expression appeared on his face.
On the way back, he actually caught a big fish? It seemed like he was the beast (masked man) that had escaped.
“Come out for some fresh air?” Zhang Ronghua joked as he waved his fan.
Qing Yu moved a little. Her dead fish eyes looked coldly at the surface of the water. She thought to herself, How did a grandmaster find me?
He carefully sensed that there was no one around, and the True Dragon Palace’s people were not there either. Even if he was heavily injured by Dark Moon, it would be easy to deal with him.
With an idea in mind, the Sky-Swallowing Green Kun Fish no longer hid. It transformed into a middle-aged man and rushed out of the water. Standing on the surface of the river, it asked the question in its heart,” How did you find me?”
“Six senses.” Zhang Ronghua clasped his hands behind his back.
“Do you think I’m a fool?” The Sky-Swallowing Green Kun Fish mocked.
