Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Crown Prince of Great Wei felt that something was wrong!
A sense of crisis suddenly arose!
It made him uneasy. He was a little restless.
“It’s fine if one person disappeared, but if two people disappeared at the same time… could there be something fishy going on? Wait!” The Crown Prince of Great Wei suddenly reacted, his expression became extremely interesting at this moment.
A guess sprung up in his mind. Even he himself did not dare to believe this guess. If he believed this guess, then he would appear to be a complete idiot.
“Could they have betrayed me? I think I have everything under control, but in fact, I’m just an actor in their chess board?”
“No… impossible, absolutely impossible!”
The Crown Prince of Great Wei tried hard to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind. He gritted his teeth and muttered, “Perhaps, it’s just a coincidence.”
“Yes! It should be a coincidence!”
However, as time continued to pass…
The last thing the Crown Prince of Great Wei wanted to see was still happening. On the day he went to court, he suddenly realized that the atmosphere in the court today was very strange.
The moment he stepped into the court, it was as if all eyes were focused on him.
The eyes of the officials of the Great Wei dynasty flickered with either shock, anger, or regret.
Suddenly!
The Crown Prince of the Great Wei dynasty saw two familiar figures. One was Qin Jiao, who had disappeared earlier! Next to Qin Jiao was his sister, whom he hated the most, and also the person who posed the greatest threat to him — Chen Qianxue!
At the same time, the Crown Prince of Great Wei also felt a gaze. This gaze contained an angry expression.
It made him tremble in fear!
He did not dare to raise his head!
That was because the owner of this gaze was the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, and also his father!
Chen Fengyin!
“Bastard!” A sudden angry shout made the legs of the Crown Prince of Great Wei soften. Although the Crown PRince was at the Golden Core stage, he felt terrified. He almost kneeled down in the court.
The Crown Prince of Great Wei raised his head stiffly in shock and saw the face of his father, which contained anger.
He immediately broke out in cold sweat!
He had a bad feeling!
“That day, you gave me a plan, saying that you wanted to secretly send disaster relief supplies in the form of a caravan. I thought it was a good plan, so I left everything to you. I even sent a group of people to you and also sent a large amount of supplies from the national treasury.”
“I originally thought that these disaster relief resources would be distributed truthfully to every disaster victim in the disaster area. In the end, I really didn’t expect this to happen!”
“Men!”
Chen Fengyin used a tone that contained anger as he coldly said, “Bring those people to me! Let my good Crown Prince see if he knows those people!”
Very soon, a group of people with their heads lowered and dejected were brought into the imperial court. Every one of them was a powerful Immortal cultivator, but now all of their cultivation bases were sealed.
What made the Great Wei Crown Prince’s hair stand on end was that half of these people were actually the people he had sent out!
The other half were also his people!
The problem was… He had not sent the other half to do anything!
This was…
What was going on?
“Father… Father, I…” The Crown Prince of Great Wei, who realized that a disaster was about to befall him, tried to explain.
However, he was interrupted by Chen Fengyin in a cold voice, “Shut up! Men! Hand over the image jade slip!”
Image jade slip was a special item that could record images.
It could also be considered one of the spirit tools and was quite precious.
Of course, to the Great Wei Dynasty’s royal family, they could have as many of these things as they wanted.
“Bastard! You might not have thought that among the group of people that I sent to you, every one of them carried an image jade slip. They recorded everything that they experienced.”
“Give these video contents to my good Crown Prince and take a good look!”
As Chen Fengyin’s voice fell, a few eunuchs handed over a jade slip.
Then, they injected a trace of spirit energy, and a video suddenly appeared.
In the video, shockingly, it was the scene of the merchant caravan delivering disaster relief supplies being attacked by the Crown Prince’s residence!
This included the great battle that happened and the deaths of Immortal cultivators one by one.
Finally, the arrival of the Great Wei army in time.
It was all recorded clearly!
The civil and military officials in the Imperial Court all looked on with disdain. Some of the officials of the Crown Prince’s camp were the same. They seemed to have seen these scenes and were not shocked by what happened in the scene.
Only the Crown Prince of the Great Wei was the only one who stared at the contents of the scene with his mouth agape.
He was dumbfounded!
Since when did he send people to rob the Dao?
The problem was, the people who robbed the Dao in the screen were indeed his people.
He was stunned!
Suddenly, the Crown Prince of Great Wei turned his head abruptly, his bloodshot eyes locked onto Chen Qianxue and Qin Jiao.
“It’s you! Chang Ning! Qin Jiao! From the beginning to the end, it was you who set me up! !”
“That advisor is also one of your people!”
He could not help but grit his teeth and shout.
The Crown Prince of Great Wei only felt his entire body tremble with anger. He felt a chill all over his body. He was angry, trembling, and cold!
He realized that he, who had lived for so many years, was actually being played around by a little girl who was only a few decades old.
He also did not expect that the people around him had long been the subordinates of the other party.
Also, that damned Qin Jiao!
This damned woman had such a vicious heart! She had been scheming against him all along!
“Bastard! In the Imperial Court, you’re shouting like a madman! Without any evidence, you’re framing your royal sister! What’s the point?”
Chen Fengyin interrupted the Crown Prince of Great Wei and took a deep breath.
When he looked at the Crown Prince of Great Wei, there was no anger in his eyes. There was only disappointment.
“I finally know why the people of Great Wei don’t get much every time disaster relief materials are distributed,” he said expressionlessly. “So, the biggest pest is right under my nose.”
The Crown Prince of Great Wei widened his eyes.
He opened his mouth. He wanted to quibble.
He really wanted to say ‘Father, I have indeed been greedy for disaster relief materials in the past, but this time, I definitely wasn’t greedy!’
However… If he said this, he was afraid that his Father would not be able to control the anger in his heart and remove his Crown Prince position.
“Men.”
Chen Fengyin regained his calm and said, “Bring this bastard to the Cold Phoenix Palace and make him face the wall for 100 years! At the same time, take the items in the Crown Prince’s residence and use the Crown Prince’s property for disaster relief!”
The Crown Prince’s face was ashen. At this moment, he realized that his hateful sister also gave him a disappointed look.
It was as if this matter had nothing to do with her.
The Crown Prince of Great Wei’s blood pressure increased!
Then, he saw Qin Jiao, who was beside Chen Qianxue, actually grin and give him a brilliant smile.
The Crown Prince of Great Wei’s eyes widened in anger!
The countless negative emotions in his heart almost condensed into a Mental Demon!
If it was not for his higher cultivation level and better state of mind, he might have already gone mad.
He forcefully suppressed the mouthful of blood that was about to spurt out.
His face turned from a deathly gray, looking like a pig’s liver.
[The Crown Prince of Great Wei wasn’t stripped of his status as the Crown Prince. He was only thrown into the Cold Phoenix Palace to face the wall for 100 years. Chen Qianxue had already expected this result. She wasn’t surprised and wasn’t disappointed at all. Because what Chen Qianxue wanted to achieve had already been achieved.]
[All the officials that the Crown Prince of Great Wei had gathered over the years all fell for Chen Qianxue. Even some of the other disciples of the Great Wei royal family were trying to be nice to Chen Qianxue.]
[Age 75, Chen Qianxue and Qin Jiao coincidentally broke through on the same day.]
[Fu Shuangni, who was far away in Great Yan City, also learned about what happened in the Imperial City.]
“You did well.” Fu shuangni said, “Don’t leave Great Yan City during this period of time. Although the Crown Prince of Great Wei has been ordered to face the wall for 100 years, his subordinates will not give up on looking for you.”
In front of Fu Shuangni was a human Immortal cultivator.
This person nodded respectfully, “Yes, City Lord.”
If the Crown Prince of Great Wei was here, he would be shocked to discover…
The person in front of Fu Shuangni was the advisor he could not find!
