Chapter 594: Picking Flowers as a Gift to a Beautiful Woman (5)
"Who are you?" Princess Ming'an cried angrily, "Don't you know who I am? I am the princess of the Great Qin. With one command from me, I can make all of you lose your heads!"
Hearing this, the man in black paused, then chuckled softly. Even though his face couldn't be seen through the veil, his laughter was clearly joyful. However, Xie Changwu and Princess Ming'an seemed to be able to see the mockery in his face through the veil.
Princess Ming'an's face flushed crimson. She had never been treated so coldly before. But she felt a little confused. She felt like she had heard the man's voice somewhere before, but she couldn't place it. She asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"You are not overestimating your own abilities."
"You!" Princess Ming'an was furious.
"A mere princess of Qin, what's that to you?" The man said in a pleasant voice, but his words were harsh: "Even after she dies, she'll just be a pile of bones."
"How dare you!" Princess Ming'an shouted.
"I am bold, so what about you?" the man said slowly.
This king? Princess Ming'an was taken aback. In a flash, she suddenly thought of another person, that person's voice was also so fascinating. She looked up, but the face was covered by the veil, and the pair of eyes exposed were as intoxicating as peach blossom wine, as if they were full of affectionate smiles. But when she looked closely, they were full of indifference.
"You are... His Royal Highness Prince Rui!" Princess Ming'an cried out.
His Royal Highness Prince Rui? Xie Changwu looked sharply at the man in black. He felt that he was familiar with him, as if he had seen him somewhere before. However, he never expected that it was actually His Royal Highness Prince Rui of Daliang.
The man in black neither admitted nor denied it, which the two of them saw as a tacit agreement. Xie Changwu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why did His Highness Prince Rui come here?"
Even if Xie Changwu racked his brains, he couldn't figure out why Prince Rui was here. You know, Prince Rui and he had no relationship at all, and he didn't seem to have much contact with Princess Ming'an. So why was he here? What was he trying to do?
After Princess Ming'an recognized the man before her as Prince Rui, her fear completely dissipated, and she was filled with tenderness. She whispered, "Your Highness Prince Rui, what brings you here so late at night?"
Xie Changwu felt that Princess Ming'an was truly foolish. Since they had already killed the guards they had brought with them, it was clear that they had not come to reminisce about the past. Furthermore, this Prince Rui gave off an extremely dangerous vibe, and Xie Changwu felt a tremor in his heart.
Prince Rui ignored Princess Ming'an and instead looked at Xie Changwu and said, "You seem to have something to ask me?"
Xie Changwu forced a smile and said, "May I ask, Your Highness, have you ever met my third brother?"
The letter was written in Xie Changchao's handwriting, but the person who came was Prince Rui. Could it be that Xie Changchao had fallen into Prince Rui's hands? What was the feud between Xie Changchao and Prince Rui?
The man in black smiled and said, "I have seen him."
Xie Changwu's eyes widened: "He..."
"I killed him."
When these words were spoken, Princess Ming'an and Xie Changwu were both stunned and shuddered involuntarily.
After a long pause, Xie Changwu asked, "Why did His Royal Highness Prince Rui want to kill my third brother?"
"He messed with the wrong people."
Did he offend someone he shouldn't have? Xie Changwu was suspicious. Who was it? Could it be Shen Miao? The only person Xie Changchao had offended was Shen Miao. But why did Prince Rui stand up for Shen Miao? What kind of private relationship did Prince Rui have with the Shen family? Xie Changwu felt as if he had glimpsed the tip of an iceberg of a shocking secret, but because he couldn't see the whole picture, his mind was in a mess.
