Chapter 523 - : Smoldering Fury (1/2)

“Your Highness, Courtesan Zheng is merely a n.o.body. Whether she gets eradicated or not, it’s all at Your Highness’s mercy.” Shangguan said softly as he followed the crown prince into the inner study.

“It wouldn’t be pretty if a rift forms between Your Highness and the king due to an insignificant n.o.body. Perhaps you wouldn’t mind, but in the future, Her Majesty and His Highness Yu…”

“Ever since Courtesan Zheng entered the palace seven to eight years ago, her favor with the king has never once diminished. It’s clear as day that she has the means to enact her schemes. Unfortunately, she hasn’t been able to birth a son, so she can’t at all threaten…”

The two’s voices got softer and softer, shutting the door after entering the inner study.

“It’s fine if Your Highness doesn’t wish to go to the Qin Estate. With Your Highness’s ident.i.ty, it’s all up to you whether or not you choose to meet a tiny elixirs patrician family. It indeed isn’t suitable for the king to send you there just for a few pills. As for Courtesan Zheng, you should just give her a lesson as a warning. This matter doesn’t require Your Highness to personally make a move…”

Huifeng waved his hand, dismissing the eunuchs and royal maids that were still kneeling in the study.

Suddenly, the window frame quivered, and a pitch-black figure floated in quietly.

“Are you so addicted to climbing through the window that you have to do it every time?” Huifeng’s eyes didn’t even s.h.i.+ft, not even bothering to give the newcomer half a glimpse.

Mei’ye flashed to the desk and grabbed the kettle, immediately guzzling water down into his stomach. “Where’s His Highness?”

“He’s talking with Mister Shangguan.” Huifeng walked up to him and eyed him suspiciously. “What did you find?”

“Miss disappeared after entering the city.” Mei’ye set down the kettle and switched to a serious and stern face.

This was already reported a few days back!

Huifeng rolled his eyes at him. Only after talking to this fellow some more would you realize that he was a clown by nature, and that it was only his exterior that exuded seriousness.

“You only brought this piece of news back to His Highness after such a long investigation?” Huifeng was rejoicing in Mei’ye’s misfortune. “Just you wait.”
