C15 Killing Intent

The Emperor pondered for a moment before asking hesitantly, "Then how do you want me to step forward?"

"Your Majesty, since you've come today, why don't you and this humble one act out a play for your good son!" Ninth Master said.

Hearing this, the emperor raised his eyebrows. 'Ninth Master' continued: "Your Majesty, as long as you express your determination to me and have the power to lift a nation up, you will definitely take me under your command! "After you leave, I will naturally spread the news that even His Majesty has set his sights on this humble servant as quickly as possible. I do not believe that my arm can be twisted even further than my thigh!"

As expected, after the Emperor heard the plan of Ninth Master, he praised it greatly. It was on the roof! When Wu Hen heard this, he immediately looked at this Ninth Master! As such, Wu Hen's interest in Ninth Master had deepened.

Although Wu Hen knew Ninth Master's plan, he didn't have any intention of revealing it. This was because he had no interest in anything other than missions!

After what the Emperor did, all the nobles and officials in Mizar City who admired the talents of the Ninth Master stopped thinking about it. What a joke! Who would dare to snatch the person the emperor wanted?! It's not like he was giving up his life!

This news had naturally spread to the Eastern Palace as well, but Yi Qianqian didn't mind in the slightest. There was no reason why Young Master Wu Hen could not complete the mission he had accepted. Even if he did not personally step in, he would still invite Nine to kill Che Lingjun!

The tenth day quickly arrived. Inside the Eastern Palace, Crown Prince Yi Qian had already ordered people to prepare a banquet for him.

During dinner time, the 'Ninth Master' arrived late.

Although Crown Prince Yi Qian had been waiting eagerly for the whole day, when he heard his servant say 'Ninth Master' had come, he immediately became excited.

The servant that came to report still wanted to say something, but Yi Qian had already angrily said, "Dog slave! What are you standing there for? Hurry up and catch up! "

That servant was scared out of his wits by the scolding. Their crown prince was a murderous demon after all. He had no idea how many of the palace servants in the East Palace had been changed. He couldn't just foolishly let the crown prince's good mood slip by.

Thus, the servant did not dare to say anything else, and chased after the crown prince's back in a flustered manner.

When they were almost to the dining room, the servant called out to Yi Qian in a hurry, "Hey! Your Highness, wait for your servant! This servant has something else to report to you! "

However, how could the anxious crown prince delay his advance because of the shouts of a mere servant!

He lifted his sleeves and stepped into the dining room without looking back.

Because the crown prince had been reading in his study, he had to walk around a corridor from the study to the dining room. Thus, when he turned around, his line of sight was restricted.

From Yi Qian's point of view, the most eye-catching thing was a small mahogany table in the middle of the banquet hall, where "Ninth Master" was sitting and leisurely sipping his tea.

"I even said 'Ninth Master' is not willing to give me face, but I didn't expect that 'Ninth Master' is a sensible person. It's even better this way!" As Yi Qian walked in, he said something crazy at the same time.

Ninth Master put down his tea cup and raised his head to ask with a smile that was not a smile, "May I ask Your Highness, what is a sensible person?"

Yi Qian let out a cold snort, raised his sleeves, and said majestically, "Of course I don't want that idiot Ling-Jun to die in vain! Have you forgotten that 'Ninth Master' warned you just nine days ago that if you didn't appear in the East Palace today, only Che Lingjun would be able to answer your question? "

Just as Yi Qian was secretly proud of his scheme, a dignified male voice suddenly shouted, "Impudent! Yi Qian, how can you talk to a State Grandmaster like that! "Who was it that allowed you to be so lawless?!"

When Yi Qian heard this voice, his body suddenly stiffened and his face twitched twice. Only then did he frantically and fearfully turn his body to a certain corner of the window's edge.

"This son pays respects to royal father! Long live royal father! I do not know that royal father has arrived, but I hope that royal father can forgive this son for his negligence! " He fell to his knees with a thud and kowtowed.

At the edge of the window, Mu Guo Emperor, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe and a Flying Dragon Crown was staring at the kneeling Yi Qian with a dark and cold gaze. The expression on his face was extremely sullen. The emperor suddenly threw the teacup in his hand, and the teacup instantly shattered into pieces, with some pieces even rolling towards Yi Qian's knee.

"Yi Qian! Do you know your wrongs!? " The emperor glowered at Yi Qian with an intimidating aura as he questioned.

Yi Qian laid his head low on the ground and replied in a good manner, "To reply royal father's words, this son knows his wrongs! It's all because of that servant of Seven Dog, royal father did not notify everyone when he arrived! "

Doggie Seven was the maid who had gone to the study to report the news. At this time, he heard the Crown Prince making a joke out of himself in front of His Majesty. He was so shocked that he shook his head and stammered, "S-His Highness the Crown Prince! "I was just about to tell you that the Emperor came too, but … but you left too fast, I didn't even have the chance to say it clearly!"

How could Eggy be bothered to speak, he immediately kicked Doggie out without saying a word.

The emperor saw that Yi Qian actually dared to attack in front of him, and was immediately enraged, "Yi Qian! Are you trying to intimidate me? "Hm!"

Yi Qian immediately kneeled down in fear, "Royal Father! How could I dare to show you my power! I am only teaching this dog slave a lesson, how dare he not report my royal father's arrival! This is disrespectful! "

Yi Qian's words were spoken with dignity, so the Emperor did not pursue them further. Instead, he said, "Alright, I will treat it as you teaching my family's slave a lesson. But Yi Qian, we didn't make you the crown prince of Mu, we didn't make you bully us! You can admire the talents of the honored Imperial Advisor, but you can't threaten the life of the person you care about and make him swear his allegiance to you! What's more, Che Lingjun is not only a Marquis of Zhenyuan, but also your cousin! If you kill him today, you'll be murdering your brother! Even if you were to ascend to the throne in the future, the people of the world would definitely poke your spine! "

The Emperor's words were very serious. He originally wanted to teach this son of his a lesson, but the speaker had unintentionally listened to him and the skeptical Yi Qian had automatically understood his words to mean that he was dissatisfied with his own intentions as the crown prince!

Yi Qian's heart turned cold, and his determination to take his father's place grew even stronger!

"Father's teachings are correct! This son should not have ignored his kinship, please do not worry royal father, this son will definitely remember royal father's teachings, and will definitely wake up from his mistake! " Yi Qian knelt on the ground and said in a sincere tone.

"Alright, since you've already realized your wrongs, then get up and speak!" The emperor slowly walked over to Ninth Master's tea table and said, "I won't bother with what happened today, but you have to remember that Ninth Master will be our State's Imperial Advisor from now on. You can't be rude to Ninth Master, and even more so, you can't be a threat to him!" As for the banquet that you've prepared, it will depend on whether Ninth Master is willing to accept it or not! "

When the Ninth Master saw that the Emperor had mentioned him, he slightly cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty must be joking. Your highness has invited me, is there any reason for me to be ungrateful?"

When the emperor heard this, his gaze turned to the crown prince, Yi Qian, and he ordered, "My son, why aren't you quickly preparing?"

Yi Qian had no choice but to obediently go down to let the palace people have a feast. After three rounds of drinking, the emperor and Ninth Master left together, and Yi Qian did not dare to bring up the matter anymore.

However, as soon as the emperor and the Ninth Master disappeared, he whistled into the darkness, and in an instant, a shadow appeared in front of him and knelt down, "Master! Why did you summon me? "

Yi Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Go and keep an eye on Sir Wu Hen. We must take Che Ling Jun's dog life tonight!"

After receiving the order, the shadow disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye. It truly came and went without a trace.

At this moment, in the Marquis' Mansion, a tight-uniformed Formless had quietly snuck into Che Lingjun's room. However, the moment his foot touched the ground, he discovered that something was amiss. There seemed to be something on the ground!

He concentrated his eyes and looked down. It was actually a floor full of poisonous snakes! Those poisonous snakes flicked their blood-red tongues, and before he could react, they immediately began to attack him in turns.

As for the car Ling Jun, he was sitting up straight on the bed, holding a handful of white jade in his hand, blowing rhythmically on his lips. As he played, groups of snakes attacked him alone or in groups. Suddenly, he attacked from the left and then from the right. He ordered a ban, just like a disciplined army!

The moment Wu Hen saw the color of the snakes, he immediately knew what had happened to them. The swords danced like flowers amidst the snakes, not daring to relax for even a moment. After the time it took to boil a cup of tea, although he could not kill a few snakes, the remaining snakes were still unable to approach him.

At this time, Che Lingjun stopped and said, "Friend, it's very rude to trespass into someone's room in the middle of the night."

Wu Hen smiled enchantingly as he held his sword horizontally across his chest, saying, "Marquis Zhen Yuan, take someone's money and do something for them. Someone offered a high price for me to kill you tonight. In my opinion, you should be the one to surrender obediently."

Cha Lingjun imitated him and laughed, and asked, "What if I don't?"

"Hahaha!" Wu Hen burst out laughing, "Then I'm sorry, if I die too unsightly, don't blame me! Once the Formless Blade is unleashed, it will turn into mincemeat! "

Hearing that, Che Lingjun paused, and then laughed out loud, "So you are the legendary Young Noble Wu Hen? "Aiya, it seems like my cousin the crown prince is really willing to spend a huge sum of money. He even invited the number one assassin to come out!"

Wu Hen confidently used the hilt of his sword to brush his hair, and laughed, "Hehehe, that's fine, I am the famous Wu Hen from the Jiang Hu Sect!"

Che Lingjun almost burst out laughing at Wu Hen's narcissistic actions. He had never seen anyone so narcissistic!

"Sir Wu Hen, why don't we discuss this?" Che Lingjun held back his laughter and suggested.

Sir Wu Hen raised his eyebrows, "Hm? Tell me about it! "

"I wonder how many rewards my cousin the crown prince gave you. I'll pay you double the price. Don't kill me, just kill him instead!" How about it? Are you going to do this? " Che Lingjun said with a serious expression.

Sir Wu Hen seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, laughing till tears streamed down his face, "Zhenyuan Hou, you sure are talented! Is this how you bribe assassins to kill former employers? How am I supposed to mess around in the underworld! However, your temper is rather to my taste. I've made you a friend! When I kill you in a bit, this young noble will consider letting you die a little better. "

However, because of the long time he had spent playing the flute, his cheeks were swollen from the pain.

The two of them were already exhausted, but at a time of life and death, when the other side was not stopping their attacks, neither of them dared to rashly stop.
