“Send someone to Qi Feng Hall immediately and invite the esteemed guest here,” he instructed the eunuch.
Upon hearing the command, the eunuch looked up at the old Emperor.
If the old Emperor had looked at the eunuch, he would have noticed a hint of disdain in the eunuch’s eyes.
How could the Emperor of Daqing Kingdom value a prince of Shang Kingdom so much? How could he even call him an “esteemed guest”?
That person came quietly. Perhaps even the Emperor of Shang Kingdom had no idea. He was not even an envoy, but the Emperor still wanted to treat him as such.
Couldn’t he see that he was trying to sow discord within Daqing Kingdom?
Since he couldn’t handle Prince Zhan Yun, who was a tough nut to crack, he decided to let the old Emperor do it. He would reap the benefits while they fought amongst themselves.
The poor old Emperor could not even see through this obvious scheme. He even thought he was kindly reminding him of the dirty affairs between Qian Jiyun and the Third Prince.
“Yes, Your Majesty. I’ll go now.”
The eunuch did not dare to say anything, let alone remind him. He could only follow the old Emperor’s instructions and go to Qi Feng Hall to invite the person.In Qi Feng Hall…
The person inside was not Shang Ningyi, but Shang Ningshen.
When he heard that Qian Jiyun had returned, his hand, which was holding a pastry, could not help but tremble.
He believed he was no match for Qian Jiyun, so he had been instigating the old Emperor of Daqing Kingdom to find those around Qian Jiyun to deal with him.
He had also been preparing. He had stationed many people at the exit of Huayan Peak to find out when Qian Jiyun would return so that he could be fully prepared and take him down in one strike.
However, while he had been informed that Qian Jiyun had returned, he had not received any news from his people.
How was that possible? He had a feeling that something had gone wrong.
He had sent several groups of people to watch over different spots. How could every group fail to catch sight of Qian Jiyun?
Unless Qian Jiyun wiped out everyone and left no one behind?
“He’s back?”
There was a dangerous glint in his eyes as he looked at the person reporting.
“Yes, Young Master. Prince Zhan Yun is back. He’s already in the palace.”
The person who came to report was a little eunuch whom Shang Ningshen had bribed. He was aware of the recent events.
Thinking of Qian Jiyun’s amazing actions, even he felt a little stunned.
How could Prince Zhan Yun dare to come to the palace? The Third Prince had fled, but Prince Zhan Yun entered the palace the day after he returned.
“Heh! Qian Jiyun is quite bold! How dare he enter the palace!”
Despite being fully aware of the many traps waiting for him in the capital, he still dared to return and enter the palace boldly?
Shang Ningshen could not help but admire Qian Jiyun’s boldness. He did not understand who gave Qian Jiyun the courage to enter the palace alone. Was he not afraid that he would not be able to leave alive?
“That’s right. I’ve been wondering about it too, but it’s true. Prince Zhan Yun really entered the palace with the civil and military officials. He should be waiting for the morning court assembly in the hall.”
“I understand.”
Shang Ningshen nodded and glanced at his servant, who was standing next to him.
The servant understood and took out a silver pouch from his pocket. Walking forward, he stuffed it into the little eunuch’s hands.
