Chapter 455: The Wife-Indulging Devil King x The Useless Third Miss 24
On the day of Xiao Mohan and Qiao Jinjin's wedding, the streets were filled with people. They heard that the horrible poison scar on the Ghost King's face had been cured by a mid-level pharmacist, and today his original appearance was revealed.
Xiao Mohan sat on a tall horse, his handsome appearance drew cheers, and those young ladies from official families felt extremely regretful in their hearts.
If they had known that the Ghost King had such a appearance, they would have asked for his marriage long ago. It's too late to say anything now. The position of the principal wife has already been chosen, and it seems that they can find a way to make her the Ghost King's concubine.
Yue Jiao and Liu Zhi were in the crowd, watching the wedding procession passing by. Yue Jiao said meaningfully, "Zhi'er, we have to speed up. How can my daughter be just a princess?"
Liu Zhi followed Yue Jiao's advice and thought for a moment before saying, "Master, do you want to meet Sister Jin'er first? Listen to her opinion?"
Yue Jiao waved her hands and said, "It's not the right time yet. Let's talk about it after your master wakes up."
Ever since Xiao Mohan got married, his aura has become much softer, not as murderous as before.
It is precisely because of this that many people think that Xiao Mohan is easy to bully. For example, at the morning court, General Wang actually asked the emperor for a marriage without any scruples, and his daughter must be the principal wife.
The emperor glanced at Xiao Mohan, then looked at General Wang who was waiting for his order, and laughed, "General, the Ghost King already has a princess. Your request is inappropriate, isn't it?"
General Wang actually looked at Xiao Mohan with his head held high and said, "That's nothing. She is a princess without the support of her mother's family. It's a great honor for her to be a concubine."
"Ah..." General Wang had just finished speaking when Xiao Mohan, who had been smiling before, now had a gloomy face and used his mysterious energy to knock General Wang away.
"Puff..." General Wang spat out a mouthful of blood. The injury must be serious. "You... you actually dared to attack in front of the emperor!"
Xiao Mohan ignored the emperor who was already drooping his lips, walked up to General Wang, and stepped hard on his chest. "So what if you hit me? Do you think my princess is easy to bully? Believe it or not, I can kill you right now."
General Wang had his chest stepped on and he couldn't get up. He was scared and angry. He was scared because he was afraid that Xiao Mohan would really kill him, and he was angry because Xiao Mohan didn't even give him the slightest bit of face.
"Han'er, stop it now!"
The Emperor's stern voice was then rang out, making General Wang hate Xiao Mohan, but also grateful to him. This was really a deep calculation.
Xiao Mohan then retracted his foot, looked at the ministers in the hall who were afraid to breathe, and said, "You'd better not think of attacking the king and the princess, otherwise the king doesn't mind killing a few more people."
Xiao Mohan left after he finished speaking, even ignoring the emperor.
The emperor looked at Xiao Mohan, who didn't take him seriously at all, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
I thought the matter was over, but at night, General Wang died quietly at home in a particularly shameful way.
General Wang died in the woman's bed, reportedly from a stroke.
The first thing Xiao Mohan thought when he received the news was that this matter was not simple. How could it be such a coincidence? He did not order to deal with General Wang, but now the way General Wang died, it seemed as if someone was venting his anger for Jin Jin Qiao.
However, General Wang's position became vacant, and Xiao Mohan planned to promote his own confidant. The emperor's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger now, and he can't just muddle along like before. He has a wife now, and he is no longer alone.
Xiao Mohan never dreamed of having children. Almost all strong men above the purple level cannot have their own children, especially since he and Qiao Jinjin are both strong men above the purple level.
Although General Wang's death was not caused by Xiao Mohan, the death was too coincidental. Many people speculated that General Wang was killed by Xiao Mohan.
Xiao Mohan did not bother to explain. If he was dead, he was dead. In this world where the strong were respected, the death of a person was a normal thing.
However, no one dared to mention being Xiao Mohan's princess or concubine anymore. Nothing was more important than one's own life.
Today, the emperor suddenly had a whim and wanted to go to the secret room to see the beauty. The beauty had been sleeping for so long, and he felt itchy every time he saw her.
But when the emperor walked into the secret room, he was so angry that he almost fainted.
"Who, who took my woman away?"
The emperor immediately ordered a city-wide search to find the person.
"Master and Master's portraits are everywhere."
The moon mermaid raised her head, and to everyone's shock, her eyes turned red. The blood-red color was scary to look at.
Liu Zhi was used to it, but he was still a little worried about "Master"
As Liu Zhi shouted, Yue Jiao's eyes slowly returned to their original color.
"Emperor Tianwu is damned, he actually claimed that my wife is his woman"
Then Yue Jiao's eyes suddenly brightened and he said, "Zhi'er, take action. He has lived long enough."
The emperor died suddenly. The news shocked the court and the public the next morning. Surprisingly, the emperor left behind an imperial edict to pass on the throne before his sudden death.
No one doubted whether this imperial edict was fake. Even if it was fake, no one doubted or objected. Xiao Mohan was too powerful, so powerful that it made them jealous.
Except for one person, that is King Chen who has disappeared for half a year.
Xiao Jingrui was wearing armor and pointing his sword at Xiao Mohan who had just received the imperial edict, his tone full of disbelief.
"Brother, you actually killed your father to seize the throne"
Xiao Mohan glanced at Xiao Jingrui calmly and said, "Please be careful with your words and actions, King Chen. I didn't do anything."
"You should know very well how your father died."
"Even my wife is only an intermediate pharmacist. How can she get the elixirs of advanced pharmacists?"
Prince Chen was choked all of a sudden. According to the investigation, his father was poisoned by a high-level pharmacist, and the poison killed him in an instant.
But since he died in an instant, how could the emperor have the time to write an imperial edict? This is what no one understands.
"Prince Chen, my father has issued an imperial decree to pass on the throne. You are pointing a sword at me now. Are you planning to rebel?"
Xiao Jingrui gritted his teeth and put away his sword. Even though he had been secluded for half a year, he was still no match for Xiao Mohan. Rebelling now would be like hitting a rock with an egg.
"Brother, please grant me a fiefdom after you ascend the throne. I will never return to the capital."
Xiao Jingrui did this for the sake of self-protection. If he wanted to stay alive, he could only make Xiao Mohan believe that he really had no intention of rebelling.
Xiao Mohan is not the kind of killer who kills anyone he sees, and Xiao Jingrui has indeed not caused anything that requires him to kill him.
"I promise you, as long as you behave yourself as a prince, I will not care what you do in your fiefdom."
