He watched with detached indifference, filled with admiration. He knew that these methods must have been the work of Meng Chan.
No wonder she was the woman who competed with Bi Linglong back then!
No wonder he was the person I admired back then!
Meng Chan was just a hair's breadth away from succeeding.
Who could have predicted that Zu'an, at such a young age, could even instantly kill a terrestrial immortal?
It was truly not a fault of war; it was simply the will of Heaven.
However, this time the Prince of Dai and the Meng family are completely finished, and Meng Chan, as the Princess of Dai, is naturally finished as well.
If a hero were to appear at this moment, give her hope, and rescue her, she would surely fall in love with him.
The image of himself descending from the sky in golden armor to rescue her from the Meng family flashed through the King of Ying's mind. His heart was filled with excitement, and he involuntarily took a step forward, even subconsciously wanting to fly towards the Meng family.
However, the cold night wind immediately brought him back to his senses.
It's okay to fantasize about this, but to actually do it...
He was quite aware of his own limitations; that guy surnamed Zu could kill him with just one hand... no, even one finger.
What a pity...
Thinking of the tragic future of his former love, he was filled with pity, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
He dismissed his subordinates, turned around and took out a bottle of wine he had treasured in the cabinet. Over the years, he had always been very self-disciplined and rarely drank alcohol in private, because he was worried that alcohol would affect his judgment.
But today, all he wants to do is get completely drunk.
...
All of this happened in many households. Those people might not necessarily have the same deep feelings for Meng Chan as the Prince of Ying, but their actions were almost identical to those of the Prince of Ying.
They all stopped all their conspiracies and plans without prior arrangement. After all, Zu'an's performance today was too explosive, and they didn't want to accidentally provoke this living devil.
However, compared to the grieving families in the princes' mansions, an old man in a secluded courtyard in the capital was extremely excited, slapping his thighs so hard they were almost raw: "I never imagined that the imperial grandson would be so amazing!"
"Truly, Heaven blesses our Great Meng Dynasty!"
At this moment, a woman nearby sighed, "It's a pity that he doesn't seem to want to acknowledge the identity of this imperial grandson."
Her face was covered by a veil, so her appearance was not visible, but she had a graceful figure, a straight back, and an outstanding temperament.
“This is his destined responsibility, and he has no choice but to admit it,” the old man paced back and forth in the room, clearly a little agitated. After a while, his eyes lit up. “I’ve got it. In the coming days, instruct our people to find more storytellers in the streets and alleys, especially on overpasses where crowds gather.”
"After some time, when his reputation has grown, we will spread the rumor among the people that he is the grandson of the emperor."
The woman was startled and hesitated before asking, "Won't this completely enrage him?"
“How could we anger him? We’re on the same side as him after all. Even if he has some resentment, it’s not a big deal,” the old man laughed. “This guy is just too lazy. Since he doesn’t want to get involved, we’ll force him to.”
The woman looked out the window, a hint of worry in her eyes.
It must be said that the other party's suggestion was ingenious. Once the rumors about the imperial grandson spread, the Great Zhou court would definitely be highly vigilant.
Even if he were the Regent of Zu'an, he wouldn't be able to protect himself. On the contrary, this identity would make some people in the Great Zhou even more wary.
The two sides will inevitably clash again. In the end, Zu'an only dealt with the Meng family and Zhao Chen, a mere Earth Immortal, tonight. The state machinery of the Great Zhou Dynasty was not fully mobilized.
However, if it concerns the grandson of the former emperor, no force would stand idly by as they have tonight.
At that time, Zaun will be an enemy of the world, and naturally they can only get support by siding with us.
The plan was good, but...
Considering the fighting prowess and temperament that Zaun displayed tonight, is it really safe that something bad will happen?
...
Within the Sang family, the members were also in a state of extreme shock.
Looking at Zheng Dan, who was laughing foolishly in the distance, jumping and skipping around, Sang Hong sighed inwardly, then said to his daughter beside him, "Qian'er, let Sisi take his surname in the future."
Given the strength Zaun has shown so far, who would dare let his bloodline be with someone else?
Moreover, given the current situation, it would be more beneficial for the Sang family for Sisi to take Zu'an's surname, and it would also allow Sang Qian to rightfully move into the Regent's Palace.
Sang Qian shook her head: "Let's not. It would make our Sang family seem too materialistic. Let's stick to what we agreed on before and let things take their natural course."
She knew very well that Brother Zu had a wife, and there was always something missing in the relationship between her and him.
Sang Hong was taken aback, then nodded: "That's right, you've thought it through. I was just too excited."
He then added, "But you'd better work harder and try to have ten or eight of Azu's children."
Sang Qian stamped her foot, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, and said, "Dad, I'm not a pig, how many babies can I have in a year?"
"You can bring him along..." Sang Hong's face flushed slightly, and he was a little embarrassed. He said a few words casually and then left in a hurry.
Aunt Mu, knowing he was too embarrassed to admit it, tried to help him by whispering in Sang Qian's ear, "Qian'er, you could actually ask your sister-in-law to help you..."
Sang Qian: "..."
Her face was already flushed red with embarrassment!
"Last year I drew a portrait of Yun Jianyue, and today I drew a portrait of the Crown Princess Bi Linglong. I posted it on my public WeChat account, so you can check it out."
