Inside the palace, the scent of sandalwood lingered.
"Prince Yu, you dare to defy the iron law that a vassal king cannot enter the capital?”
Wu Mingyue sat on the throne and looked down at her imperial uncle.
A square-faced man in a python robe stood at the head. Although he was nearly fifty years old, he still looked dignified.
From the corner of his eyes, he sized up his niece on the Wu family's genealogy. She still had ice skin and jade bones. Her palm-sized face was exquisite and noble, but there was a faint trace of violent hatred, as if it was shrouded in darkness at all times.
It seemed that signing the humiliating clause was like a huge rock pressing down on her heart, and she still hadn't recovered from it.
"Your Majesty, this king is only worshipping the imperial mausoleum and has violated the rules.”
Prince Yu's voice was respectful and indifferent.
Wu Mingyue narrowed her eyes and clenched her fists.
If it was before, she could casually accuse Prince Yu of overstepping the iron law and drive him away. She could even use this matter to make an issue out of it and seize Prince Yu's residence in one fell swoop.
But now, with the impact of the humiliating clause, her prestige had plummeted, and she no longer had the charisma of her peak.
Therefore, even though he knew that the other party wanted to take the opportunity to gain political capital, he was helpless. After all, the excuse of worshipping the imperial mausoleum was a high-sounding one.
"Stay for a few more days before returning to your fief.”
Wu Mingyue's voice was cold and domineering, and it carried an unquestionable command.
Prince Yu's eyes flashed and he said as if nothing had happened,
"Your Majesty, Su E'Liao really has no respect for the law. In the past few years, he has placed dozens of hidden sentries in Prince Yu's residence, as if this king is a prisoner waiting to be slaughtered.”
"If this king dares to move, those hidden sentries will definitely kill this king.”
"The hidden sentries disappeared some time ago. This king can finally take a breather.”
His words had a hint of gloating.
What a stupid niece!
A princess spoiled by the late emperor, a mediocre woman supported by Su Eoliao.
Su Eoliao is such a peerless talent, and you are actually playing the emperor technique of killing the donkey after it is done grinding?
He was really stupid to destroy his own Great Wall!
Wu Mingyue's body trembled slightly, and there was a look of horror in the depths of her eyes.
She actually knew nothing about all of this?
He thought that he was relying on his deterrence to make this Imperial Uncle hide in his fief all day and not dare to move.
"It's a pity that our Great Zhou has lost a hero who has made great contributions and is like a god of war!”
Prince Yu shook his head and pretended to be regretful.
He was the younger brother of the late emperor. Although he had no power, his status was extremely high.
So what if he mocked her?
What do you dare to do to me?
If Su E'Liao was still here, this king would still be worried about losing his head. Now, all the officials in the court are cowardly and incompetent!
Wu Mingyue's expression was cold. The word 'War God' had hurt her pride.
She wanted to be the emperor of the ages. She wanted to become the most brilliant figure in the history of the nine provinces. She was so outstanding.
How could he admit that he was wrong?
Although she had been shrouded in regret for countless days and nights, when she woke up in the morning, all her emotions turned into hatred!
She hated Su ELiao for hiding his military talent from her.
She hated Su ELiao for being ungrateful and always going against her, even humiliating her!
She hated Su Eoliao for being loyal to another woman!
"Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."
Prince Yu also understood that going too far was as bad as falling short, and he could not anger his niece too much.
Now was not the time to wait for an opportunity. His niece's rule was not in danger.
However, with her arrogant and selfish personality, it would probably be soon.
Wu Mingyue stared at Prince Yu's back, wishing that she could call out the machetemen to chop him to death.
If Prince Yu dared to be arrogant and despotic a year ago, that silent man would definitely…
Wu Mingyue was in a daze, but she immediately extinguished that thought. She was the emperor, and she had nothing to be afraid of.
Unfortunately, Su E'Liao is about to die. I won't have the chance to see him cry for forgiveness and regret leaving me.
Just as he was thinking, Eunuch Yu, who had been missing all this time, stood at the palace door and said in a hoarse voice,"
"Your Majesty, the mission failed. The cold-blooded killer died suddenly.”
Wu Mingyue's expression froze. She slowly stood up and stared at him. Her eyes were as sharp as those of a demon from hell.
Eunuch Yu bowed."
"This old servant is sentenced to death."
Every member of that assassin organization was a top-notch expert, and Coldblood was the king among the top-notch experts. He was known as an invincible legend and had never failed before.
He did not expect to die in Chu.
"You're saying that this one spent five thousand gold taels to obtain this piece of information?”
Wu Mingyue's phoenix eyes were gloomy, as if lightning was about to strike. Her beautiful cheeks trembled slightly, and she was extremely angry.
Eunuch Yu was silent for a moment before he said in a low voice,"
"This old servant is willing to die as an apology!"
Wu Mingyue stared at him coldly, trying her best to suppress her anger.
She did not have the courage to deal with the imperial family's internal experts.
"Su E'Liao killed him?" Wu Mingyue's voice was sharp.
"This old servant does not know."
Eunuch Yu answered truthfully. He didn't think Su Guan was as powerful as a five-star assassin.
"That means it could be Su E'Liao?”
Wu Mingyue clenched her fists tightly.
In her memories.
That taciturn man could only deal with those guards with third-rate martial arts.
She could never imagine that this demon would have such terrifying strength.
How much have you hidden from me?
It is this kind of wild ambition that never confesses to me that makes me suspicious.
The root of everything is you!
"This matter cannot be leaked." Wu Mingyue shouted. Once she was exposed, she would have to bear the weight of the fishing wheel.
Originally, he had wanted to send Yu Mao over, but he was worried that there were no experts guarding the palace, and if the assassins came, it would cause a disaster.
"This old servant will take his leave." Eunuch Yu bowed and left respectfully.
He hated himself too.
If he had stood up for justice and said a few words of justice for Su Guan, perhaps His Majesty would have thought more about it based on his importance.
Sigh!
……
In the afternoon.
A palace maid received a letter in the Imperial City. She passed it through layers and verified that there was no invisible poison on the letter. Finally, the palace attendant presented it to the emperor.
When Wu Mingyue opened the letter, she was hysterical. Her expression was filled with hatred, anger, and endless jealousy.
It was just a short sentence, and it was a few words that were like dragons and phoenixes.
I warn you, if you dare to touch Su Guan again, I will chop you off myself.
I'm tired of writing late.
Wu Mingyue raised her head. She felt an unbearable humiliation, and her cheeks burned.
Not long ago, the Empress of the Chu Country whom she had looked down on, a woman who had relied on luck to ascend to the throne, actually dared to provoke her like this!!
