It's hard not to feel a sense of frustration at their lack of ambition.
Yun Jianyue snorted: "If I'm not mistaken, it's definitely because of some woman. This guy is usually quite rational, but when it comes to women, he's like a complete idiot who's lost his mind."
Yan Xuehen recalled the past and nodded in deep agreement. This guy really would do anything for a woman. To put it nicely, he was loyal and righteous; to put it bluntly, he was blinded by lust.
Yu Yanluo outside was also startled, but she reacted quickly: "As far as I know, the Crown Prince has issued quite a few Golden Crow Tokens, so why are you so sure who it was last night? Do you have any audio or video evidence?"
“We have our reasons for this judgment, and we have already sent people to investigate those who have the Golden Crow Token,” Elder Wu said coldly. “Queen Medusa is speaking up for that person so much, it seems you two have a close relationship.”
Yu Yanluo replied, "That human was just a casual acquaintance I met by chance in Yunzhou City back then. After what happened last time, he was afraid of being retaliated against by the royal court, so he fled back to the human race. I don't know his whereabouts. I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint Elder Wu."
"Is that so?" Old Wu sneered inwardly. He had seen the two sides' close relationship when he was with the snake clan last time. How could they just be casual acquaintances?
The original plan was to take Queen Medusa back directly, and there were plenty of ways to get her to talk. However, they didn't expect there to be so many people from other races present. If word got out, it would have a really bad impact.
However, the Crown Prince's revenge cannot be left unavenged; if it is simply left unresolved, it will be detrimental to the Crown Prince's reputation.
So he took a deep breath and decided to take Queen Medusa back first, hoping that he could force the assassin in the shadows to come out and save her.
Just as he was about to give the order, a group of people suddenly appeared at the door: "Hey, what's Old Wu doing here too?"
When Wu Lao turned around, he recognized the other person as Kong Qing, a capable general under the Peacock King. Behind him was a group of people from the Peacock Clan, many of whom were carrying a lot of silks, satins, and household items.
"Kong Qing, what are you doing here?" Old Wu asked, frowning.
Kong Qing looked around and was secretly alarmed by the tense atmosphere of the Golden Crow Guards. After hesitating for a moment, he replied, "I am on the orders of the Ming King to deliver some daily necessities to Queen Medusa so that they will not have any inconvenience in their life in the royal court."
Upon hearing this, the leaders of the other tribes exchanged glances, wondering if the Peacock King had also taken a liking to Queen Medusa.
Old Wu was also shocked. He hadn't expected the Peacock Clan to have such close ties with Queen Medusa. Could it be that the Peacock King was behind this assassination attempt?
Inside the side room, Yan Xuehen exclaimed in surprise, "This Kong Qing actually dares to get involved in this mess and even brought up the name of the Peacock King?"
Yun Jianyue analyzed, "It seems that the Peacock Clan also harbors some resentment due to the Crown Prince's aggressive pressure these days. How could the Peacock King not have any thoughts when he was forced to resign? He probably also wants to use this opportunity to annoy the Crown Prince's side."
As Wu Lao's thoughts raced, he became even more determined to bring Queen Medusa back. If he could investigate Peacock King, it would save the Crown Prince a lot of trouble.
Just as the order was about to be given, another group of men suddenly burst in from outside.
