C548 Conflict (1/2)

Baili Jinxiu looked at the surrounding guards from the Prince An Palace with a complicated gaze, then turned and returned to the residence. It seemed that Gong Xiaohan had made his move.

When Gong Xiaoxuan returned, he saw the densely packed guards at the entrance, a dark light flashed past his eyes, and without showing any sign of happiness or anger, he directly entered the Duke Palace. Seeing this, the guards were all drenched in cold sweat. This was the Battle-King of Grean Yan, if he was angry, it was possible to kill all of them on the spot. After all, the rumored Battle-King was incomparably bloodthirsty.

Seeing Gong Xiaoxuan calmly enter the Duke Palace, the two tails behind him glanced at each other, and then flew towards the Eastern Palace. However, they did not know that all of this had entered the eyes of Gong Xiaoxuan and Baili Jinxiu in the Palace.

”Gong Xiaohan finally could not hold it in anymore. Should Prince add fuel to his fire? I just don't know where those kids are. ” Baili Jinxiu looked at the dark blue sky and sighed slowly.

As long as the Emperor in the palace did not wake up, Gong Xiaohan and the pressure on them would increase. Right now, making a move was something that was completely expected, but it was unknown where the children who were taken away were, or whether they were safe or not.

Gong Xiaoxuan s cold eyes slanted to the side as he gave a light grunt.

”The chess pieces have all taken effect.”

Hearing that, Baili Jinxiu's eyes lit up, the battle that had nothing to do with the smoke was finally about to begin.

In the Crown Prince's Palace, the steward was in a dilemma as he held the invitation in his hand.

This invitation was passed out from the palace. He had just browsed through it and it was actually the Princess Mingxi who had invited the crown prince to the palace to reminisce. Not many people knew about Gong Xiaohan's cooperation with Yue Yang, but the butler naturally didn't.

Thus, after seeing the invitation card, he was puzzled for a long time before feeling somewhat uneasy. Right now, the Emperor in the palace was unconscious, so the Crown Prince had to suppress the matter on the side of the Qing Jun. If he went to the palace to meet with the Princess Mingxi and spread some news, it would be bad for the Crown Prince.

He only felt that the invitation in his hand was burning in panic.

The steward anxiously looked to both sides, and through the flower bed, he could vaguely see a young master dressed in white playing with a zither. Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he took the invitation and walked over.

”Young Master Hua is in a good mood.” His name was Hua Chen, and he was the strategist the crown prince brought back a few days ago. It was said that he was extremely favored by the crown prince, and upon entering the Palace, he had the feeling that he was the leader of a group of advisors.

Hua Chen stroked the last zither note, and after smoothing the vibrating strings flat, he revealed a refined smile to the butler, and replied: ”I wonder what business does the butler have?”

Not only was Hua Chen favored by the Crown Prince, he was also very friendly with others and was welcomed after entering the palace for just a few days.

The butler studied Hua Chen and smiled as he passed over the invitation. ”Since the invitation was sent to you in the palace, and the crown prince is not here, please pass it to me, Young Noble.”

Hua Chen looked at the invitation with interest. The invitation from the palace was probably too bright and clear for him to sit on, but this butler … Hua Chen smiled lightly and received the invitation.

”It's my duty.”

The night was dark, and the study of the crown prince's mansion was extremely quiet. Gong Xiaohan read the letter that the secret guard had delivered, then turned to look, where Hua Chen was still studying his zither music.

He knew this Hua Chen from the teahouse. At that time, Hua Chen was sitting by the window with a zither on his back, the sound of the zither slowly poured out. It was as if he was enchanted and involuntarily made friends with his.

After finding out that Hua Chen was an idiot, she invited him to come to the palace to be his zither master. He didn't expect that not only was his zither skills outstanding, his strategy was also exceptional. If Gong Xiaohan got the problem that usually troubled him, it could be solved with just a few words from Hua Chen. Furthermore, Hua Chen never asked or cared about much. He was completely indifferent to fame and fortune, and would only get excited when he saw the zither music.

This completely dispelled Gong Xiaohan's worries, and normally, he would ask Hua Chen a few things that he could not discuss with others.
