Chapter 493: Mass Poisoning and Imprisonment
Shen Zhao and Xie Yuheng looked towards the person who came, but saw that the person was dressed in white and smelled of medicine. When he walked, he needed the support of a maid who was also dressed in white.
He held a feather fan in his hand, covering half of his face, and coughs kept coming out of his mouth.
The left protector suddenly retracted his crescent-shaped sword and glanced at the person who came over reluctantly.
"Young Master, it's a dark and windy night, and the weather is cold. You'd better not wander around too much, otherwise the Master will punish the servants who serve you in the manor."
The young master's voice was as gentle as jade, clear and gentle.
"Left Protector's teaching is correct."
His attitude was sincere and humble, without any trace of the arrogance of a young master.
The manor owner's wife glared at the left protector unhappily.
"No matter what, Bin'er is still the only son of the manor owner. How can you scold the young master of Yunlong Mountain Villa casually?"
The young master did not speak to stop them, but let the master's wife blame the left protector.
At this moment, the second prince suddenly roared.
"Mother! Are you saying that the Seventh Brother is the Young Master of Yunlong Villa?"
"Is he your son too?"
Shen Zhao and Xie Yuheng looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
This is the Seventh King who is said to be an expert in both Chinese medicine and poison.
Wasn’t his mother the late emperor’s unfavored concubine?
No, no, no!
Now it should be said that the Seventh Prince is not the flesh and blood of the late emperor, but the wife and offspring of the owner of the manor.
The Second Prince and the Seventh Prince are not half-brothers, but half-brothers from the same mother!
"Brother, it's been a long time since we last met. Have you been doing well these years?"
"Second brother, don't blame Mother for not looking for you all these years. In fact, you are a past that Mother doesn't want to talk about."
"Now that you have come to Yunlong Villa, as my mother's heir, I will ask my father to let you stay in the villa to accompany my mother."
A look of displeasure flashed across the face of the manor owner's wife.
She didn't want her eldest son to stay in Yunlong Villa. His existence would only remind her of the past that she didn't want to recall!
"Bin'er, what are you talking about? You are my only child. Where did your brother come from?"
"You are the only child that your mother has ever acknowledged and is willing to acknowledge. If you and any other people know what's good for you, get out of Yunlong Villa and disappear from my sight forever."
The words of the Seventh Prince and the Manor Lord's wife stung the Second Prince's eyes so much that they hurt.
He looked at the scene of his mother and the seventh son being so loving and filial, and his heart felt as if it was being tightly grasped in someone's hand, squeezing it so hard that it hurt and made it difficult for him to breathe.
The Seventh Prince is the only child recognized by his mother, so what does he count as?
"Stop trying to act out this mother-son scene. Young Master, I want to ask you, where are those women we sent to your courtyard today? Are they still there, or have they been imprisoned in the dungeon?"
He doesn't even take the current owner of the manor seriously, so how could he respect a young owner?
Besides, now that he has found his brothers, he doesn't want to stay in this crappy villa for a moment after he finishes the tasks assigned by the young master.
His father and brothers in the clan wrote to him, asking him to take time out to return to the clan someday. It was indeed time for him to go back, as the clan had been in chaos because of the disappearance of the master and the disruption caused by those bastards.
If only the master were still here.
"Why is the Left Protector asking about those people? They were captured by my father. If the Left Protector still regards my father as his master, then he should not interfere in this matter."
The left protector sneered.
"I have always had only one master. Everyone else is nothing in my eyes. I respect him as the owner of the manor, but I don't regard him as my master. Young master, you'd better stop flattering yourself. If I dare to acknowledge him, then ask the owner of the manor if he dares to be my master!"
The left protector attacked everyone indiscriminately, even the owner of Yunlong Villa was treated equally.
"Stop talking nonsense. I want to take the person away wherever he is."
He had wasted decades of his time in Yunlong Villa, and now he didn't want to stay here for a moment.
"Left Protector is determined to become an enemy of the Xuanyuan clan for the sake of an outsider."
The Seventh King's voice also grew a little colder.
The left protector's eyes also became extremely cold.
"You are not even qualified to represent the Xuanyuan clan. Don't you consider your own origins? How can you have the nerve to represent the Xuanyuan clan?"
"Even your father, despite his high status in the clan, serves me tea and water, and I despise him for his humble origins."
"Do you really think that being the owner of the manor for a few years can change the fact that he comes from a humble background?"
"I can send a letter back to the clan and expel your branch from the Xuanyuan clan!"
The left protector pointed his crescent-shaped blade at the seven kings.
"I advise you to be smart and hand the person over quickly, otherwise don't blame me for sending you on your way early."
The Seventh Prince smiled.
"Left Protector has forgotten what I do."
As the Seventh King finished speaking, the crescent-shaped sword in the left protector's hand fell to the ground with a bang.
His legs began to tremble.
"How dare you, a bastard, poison me!"
Chen Zhao and the others also felt very uncomfortable, their bodies were soft and weak, as if they were about to fall to the ground in the next second.
They were careless. The Seventh Prince was an expert in both medicine and poison. Even if he gave them a blow in front of them, they would not notice.
"Ahem...Left Protector, this isn't the clan's home, this is Yunlong Villa in Nanchu."
"Even if the Left Protector dies, the clan won't hold us accountable. After all, the Left Protector died fighting against foreigners to protect Yunlong Villa and the Xuanyuan clan."
"Ahem...Left Protector, although you were disrespectful to me, I will still leave you with a good reputation for the sake of being from the same clan. You don't need to thank me. I just hope that in your next life, Left Protector, you will not be just a warrior without brains."
The Seventh Prince said to the guards behind him:
"Catch them all and put them in a dark cell."
"Ahem... It just so happens that I'm short of people to test my medicine. This way, I don't have to sacrifice anyone around me... Ahem..."
"It's late at night, mother. Go back and rest early."
The guards looked at each other, clasped their fists towards the Left Protector and said:
"I beg your forgiveness for any offense I have caused."
The left protector shouted at the departing figures of the Seventh Prince:
"You sinister and treacherous villain! If anything happens to me, my clan will definitely raze Yunlong Villa to the ground!"
"If you are still from the Xuanyuan clan, capture that bastard for me."
The Seventh Prince ignored the Left Protector's shouting, but supported the manor owner's wife and walked further away, leaving behind a sentence.
"The victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. I am waiting for the tribe to eliminate me."
Shen Zhao and his group were taken to a secret cell.
As soon as he was locked up in the cell, he heard several familiar voices from the cell next door.
"Chu Mu, how come you were also captured by the people from Yunlong Villa?"
"Husband...husband, are you hurt?"
"Heng'er, why did you come in too?"
Well, everyone is locked up here.
The Ninth Prince, Chu Mu, the Loyal Prince...
At this moment, the left protector and the group of men in black, who should have been weak, stood up under the surprised gaze of everyone, and did not look like they were poisoned at all.
