Chapter 357: Man, you are playing with fire The
same is the palace of Huaxu Kingdom.
There was also a spacious and bright hall with dozens of thick candles carved with golden phoenixes hanging on the wall, making the room as bright as day.
A thin woman in a yellow robe was looking at something at a desk, with a flickering light in her eyes like a flame.
"Second Prince..."
At this time, a tall, thin, black-faced palace servant slowly stepped forward, approached, and whispered, "Why do you want to see me?"
He lowered his head, his dark face full of timidity, and it seemed that he had been afraid of the Second Prince for a long time.
"Manager Du, I called you here to ask you a few questions."
The Second Prince, who was sitting at the desk, saw him coming and slowly raised his head, with a look of majesty in his eyes.
"Do you know that three years ago, there was another steward in my palace named Jiang?"
"Hmm..." Manager Du pondered for a moment, then replied, "I know."
"Then do you know where he is now?"
"Well..." Steward Du answered cautiously, "Three years ago, wasn't he caught by the Second Prince as an undercover agent and thrown into the lake west of the palace and drowned?"
"Yes, you remember him." The Second Prince sneered, "Then do you remember a steward named Yang last year?"
"Remember." Manager Du nodded again.
"So where is he now?"
"Last year he was found to be an undercover agent, and then... he was thrown into the lake west of the palace and drowned..." Steward Du bent his waist even deeper.
"Then do you know who I hate the most in my life?" The Second Prince's eyes became increasingly dangerous.
"Is it... someone who can't swim?"
Manager Du answered tentatively.
“Do you think you’re funny?”
The Second Prince glared at him, and Steward Du's legs went limp.
Then the Second Prince slammed the table and shouted, "What I hate most in my life is traitors!"
Steward Du hurriedly said, "I don't know what the Second Prince means. I am loyal to the Second Prince."
"Oh?" The Second Prince's eyes were like knives, scraping at him: "You are not an undercover agent?"
"No!" Manager Du answered without hesitation.
"I'll give you another chance. Think about it carefully before you answer." The Second Prince leaned back, his tone steady, "You know, I hate people lying to me the most in my life."
"that……"
Cold sweat rolled down Manager Du's forehead.
"Second Prince, I have been thinking about it. But could you please give me a definite answer? What do you hate most, traitors or liars?" Steward Du asked weakly.
In this desperate choice, he was obviously lost.
As soon as these words came out, the Second Prince was so angry that he laughed and shook his head repeatedly: "When I first heard people tell me that you were an undercover, I was a little skeptical, but now seeing you like this, I can't help but believe it."
"Speaking of which, my eldest sister's methods are really despicable. I was wondering how she knew so much about me. It turns out that she had planted three undercover agents in my palace. Even with these underhanded tricks that cannot be put on the table, it's no wonder she can't beat me."
"Second Prince!" Steward Du bowed his head and said loudly, "This must be the slander of a villain. Someone must be jealous of my favor and made it up to slander me. I have no relationship with the eldest princess!"
The Second Prince said angrily: "All the 148 undercover agents I planted in the Grand Princess's palace saw you secretly meeting and heard you passing the message to her. How dare you be so stubborn?!"
“…”
Manager Du was startled, and his brain began to work rapidly, thinking about when he and the eldest princess had a "secret meeting" with hundreds of people at the scene...
"Okay, I can't believe it. I really can't understand why, haha. Back then, I valued you so much that I personally brought people to bring you into the palace and castrated you one by one, helping you get rid of your male identities and granting you the opportunity to practice the Huaxu Sutra. Now, why on earth do you betray me one by one..." The Second Prince said with great sorrow.
"Second Prince..." Steward Du raised his eyes timidly.
In fact, he really wanted to say, what is there to be confused about?
Isn’t the answer right there on the riddle?
But reason made him hold back.
"Forget it!" The Second Prince waved his sleeves again, "You have followed me the longest and have the deepest feelings for me. I will not drown you in the lake. That would make me seem too inhumane."
"Your Highness the Second Prince won't kill me?" Steward Du was overjoyed.
Then, the Second Prince shouted, "Drag him out, chop him up and feed him to the dogs! Remember, you have to chop him up for three days and three nights, and he must not die before you chop him up!"
Manager Du felt as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. He stood up in shock and wanted to point at her nose and curse, "What has your doing got to do with anyone else?"
But his mind was still clear.
Although the only thing that is strong in my body now is my mouth...
But now is definitely not the time to be stubborn.
So he continued to beg for mercy: "Second Prince, please listen to me for one sentence, just one sentence."
"Okay." The Second Prince raised his hand, "You tell me?"
Manager Du gritted his teeth and slowly organized his words: "Have you ever thought that the person who did those things was me yesterday. And the me today is a brand new me... I am no longer the me of yesterday..."
The Second Prince blinked and sneered: "I didn't expect you to understand philosophy."
After that, he snapped his fingers and ordered, "Chop it up."
"I'm not talking about philosophy, I'm talking about facts!" Manager Du shouted in panic.
But it was no use. The strong female guard had already stepped forward to pull him away. At the critical moment, Manager Du suddenly raised two fingers and shouted, "Sword Control Technique!"
With a whoosh, a flying sword flew out from his sleeve. Manager Du raised his hand and grasped the sword light, which immediately flew into the sky! Boom——
In the blink of an eye, the sword light broke through the dome of the palace and escaped.
Everyone in the hall was shocked. When had Manager Du ever used such a bizarre method before? They were all caught off guard.
But the Second Princess’s cultivation was very high after all, and after a moment’s hesitation, she leaped out.
Whoosh——
She leaped so fast that she caught up with the flying sword in an instant! Then she raised her foot.
Bang! Manager Du had just rushed through the hall, wanting to escape on the sword light. He smiled slightly, but before he could turn around, he saw a yellow shadow flash by.
Then a big shoe sole fell on my head...
Boom! The next second, Manager Du failed to take off and fell heavily to the ground, his life or death unknown.
This is the garden outside the Second Prince's palace. The Second Princess landed gracefully on the ground. Looking at the "big" shaped pit with smoke and dust rising from it, she said in a cold voice, "You still dare to escape? It looks like I'll have to torture you for a few more days."
Just as she was walking towards Manager Du, she suddenly heard a shout from the smoke and dust ahead: "Stop!"
"Um?"
The second princess's eyes suddenly became grim.
"Who else in this palace dares to be so rude to my Second Princess?"
As her voice fell.
The smoke and dust gradually settled, and a bright figure of a young man appeared. His face seemed a little dazzling.
The Second Princess was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly changed the subject: "Tell me your name, and I will forgive your rudeness."
"My name is Li Sanzhao."
The person on the other side gave his name. It was the most handsome man in Huaxu Country, Li Chu, who had just entered the palace with the little koi...
He pointed at Manager Du and said, "He is my friend, you can't kill him."
"Oh? You want to save him? That would be disobeying me, do you dare?" asked the second princess.
A strange expression appeared on Li Chu's face.
Seems to be saying.
What's there to be afraid of...
The second princess caught it, so her eyes curved into a dangerous arc and said in a deep voice: "Man, you are playing with fire..."
Li Chu was silent for a moment. If it weren't for Zhao Liangchen's mission, he wouldn't mind killing the second princess on the spot.
The little koi behind him hurriedly caught up and said, "Second sister, they are all my friends. I don't know what they did. Don't bother with them!"
The second princess looked at the little koi, then looked at Li Chu. She seemed a little confused, but she didn't reveal much in her expression.
"When my younger sister speaks, I naturally have to give her face." She suddenly smiled.
Then he smiled at Li Chu and said, "I remember now. So you are the most handsome man in Huaxu Country. You really live up to your reputation. Some people said before that you might be as handsome as Ying Li who lived five hundred years ago. I thought it was an exaggeration. But now that I see you, I think you might be more handsome than him."
"It's just the same." Li Chu replied indifferently.
"interesting."
The Second Princess looked at Li Chu's face with interest for a long while before she said, "You guys go."
"Thank you, second sister!"
Little Koi said something, and Li Chu carried Manager Du on his back and turned to leave with her.
After they walked away, a subordinate came up and whispered to the Second Princess, "Second Prince, Steward Du knows a lot of secrets in our palace. If we let him go like this..."
"It doesn't matter." The Second Princess shook her head. "Tonight is the time to start the rebellion. He doesn't know anything about this part of the plan. As for the rest... it doesn't matter."
The subordinate smiled and said, "Your Highness, did you like that man? Then why didn't you force him to stay?"
"There's no rush for that." The Second Princess smiled confidently, "Men are nothing but playthings. When our great event is settled, I will be the new Lord of Huaxu. By then, I will have as many as I want! What is the most handsome man? Isn't he going to offer himself to me?"
"And I have to find out how the two of them got back here! Those idiots of the South Wall Sect, I gave them so many resources, and they can't even do such a small thing?"
"Men really can't do anything..."
Her voice sank, and the air pressure around them dropped again.
…
"Master! I miss you!"
In the bedroom of the Third Princess, Little Koi, beside the bed, Old Du hugged Li Chu, and within a few moments, his clothes were soaked with tears.
"Chen Huaji! I'll fuck your ancestors!"
Tired of crying, Lao Du started to curse at the sky again.
Half an hour passed, and these two sentences were the only ones he kept repeating over and over again.
"Okay, tell me about your experience."
Seeing that he had almost finished crying, Li Chu prepared to talk about business.
"My experience... wuwu..." Lao Du wiped his tears and said, "Before we entered the projection, I... I thought about the place Chen Huaji mentioned was so good, so I bowed to Xiaoyue and said, let me go to that place to have some fun."
"Who knows..."
"He didn't say he was going to be a eunuch... No, he's not a eunuch yet, he's a palace servant!"
Lao Du said in a trembling voice: "When I arrived, I saw that the surroundings were indeed magnificent, and all I saw were women... But as soon as I walked, I found something was wrong. Why did I feel a chill under my crotch..."
"This is not right... I have been looking for it for a long time..."
"What's next?" Li Chu asked mercilessly.
Obviously that's not what he cares about.
This question made Lao Du's tears well up again: "There's nothing below!"
“…”
“…”
After a moment of silence.
Old Du seemed to understand what Li Chu meant and smiled awkwardly, "Then I discovered that I was not a simple character. I was actually an undercover agent planted by the eldest princess in the second princess' place."
"This is quite interesting to me. After all, there is a lot of room for development in this role. I think no matter which side wins, I will be able to protect myself in the end..."
"I didn't expect that I would be reported by more than a hundred people the moment I turned around..."
Just when the master and disciple were having a serious conversation.
The little koi fish over there has been busy with its own things, putting up curtains, spreading out bedding, and arranging pillows...
Lao Du didn't notice it at first, but when he paid more attention, he found that she had already crawled into the bed and seemed to be going to sleep! "Hey, Miss Yue'er, what are you doing?"
Lao Du felt a little strange. After all, they had just met up and were discussing the situation. Sleeping... wasn't appropriate, right?
The little koi turned around and told him seriously, "Do the task."
"Oh..." Lao Du nodded, not quite understanding.
Li Chu asked again: "By the way, has your mission been triggered?"
"Mission..." Lao Du thought for a moment and said, "I feel like there is a sense in the dark telling me... to help the eldest princess defeat the second princess and support her to ascend the throne of Huaxu Kingdom."
Li Chu frowned again.
It was enough that he had quelled the riots and Zhao Liangchen had helped the Second Princess defeat the First Princess, but now there was something even more outrageous...
It's completely blocked at both ends.
Perhaps when this task was assigned, they didn't want so many people to receive the reward?
While he was thinking, Lao Du didn't say anything and the scene became quiet.
Then, Lao Du heard a burst of even breathing sounds.
“Hoo…Hoo…”
He turned his head and found that the little koi fish over there had fallen asleep...
And within a moment, she was already in a state where she was holding a pillow in her arms, with her head resting on the blanket, and her legs resting on the railing...
The sleeping posture is quite messy.
no……
In this projection, the situation is turbulent and we are facing a formidable enemy. We are studying the complex mission situation.
You're not in the right state, are you? "Don't wake her up." Li Chu also said seriously, "She's doing a mission."
"Huh?"
Lao Du's face was full of confusion and awe.
Li Chuze was still thinking about the mission, and touched his chin, "This matter... is a bit difficult to handle."
…
late at night.
A muffled sound suddenly occurred in the bedroom of the king of Huaxu State.
Bang, bang, bang! The sound came quickly and went away quickly.
After a while, it became quiet again.
An old woman wearing a golden phoenix robe and with an old face was lying on the ground, blood oozing from her mouth. She raised a trembling finger and pointed it forward.
"You... you actually mastered the eighth level of the Huaxu Sutra... you... cough cough!"
"My dear mother, you have praised me for my strong talent in martial arts since I was a child. My daughter is like this, so I have lived up to your expectations."
In front of the palace, there was only the Second Princess with a sneer on her face.
The one lying on the ground was none other than her mother, the Huaxu King of this generation!
"But... I'm obviously more gifted in martial arts and smarter than my elder sister. Why do you insist on believing in the bullshit rule of the eldest daughter and pass the throne to my elder sister?"
"You..." The voice of Huaxu King trembled, "Don't say anything, you win. Just don't kill me, and you can do whatever you want."
"Don't worry, I am your most filial daughter..." The Second Princess smiled, "I will definitely give you... a grand funeral!"
puff--
A streak of blood splashed onto the window frame.
The second princess slowly walked out of the bedroom and instructed the people on both sides: "Spread the word, the king has passed away, and left a will for me to succeed him."
"Second Prince..." A subordinate came over and said, "Shouldn't we release the news later? After all, we haven't controlled the entire royal city yet. At this time..."
"Haha." The second princess smiled and said, "My mother is dead. Now, looking at the entire Huaxu Kingdom, who dares to touch me, the second princess!"
"No, it's the new Lord Huaxu! Hahaha..."
Just as her laughter became more and more wild, a soft voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"Certainly."
