Chapter 106 Got Angry (1/2)
Zui Linglong stood outside the door and listened quietly to the voices inside. She felt very happy in her heart and could not help but smile proudly.
At this time, the surroundings was quiet, and the sky was smoky, dotted with a few flickering stars. The faint brilliance was sprinkled onto the original golden roof tiles. Only a few dark colors could be seen faintly.
On the long corridors, there were soldiers in armor who were patrolling the area with long guns. The cold moonlight reflected on their silver rifles, giving off a chilling light.
The palace in the distance was bright, and people thought that it was like daytime there. But the other side of it seemed like a woman who preferred the moonlight, and it was a little quiet.
Zui Linglong selected a remote place to hide. She wanted to eavesdrop on the conversation between the emperor and Tang Xia, and later recall the conversation to Your Grace in the harem.
Zui Linglong had thought of a wonderful idea this time. Let the emperor think that Tang Xia did not like him, but preferred the gentle prince. The emperor would be very angry and lose any affection he had for Tang Xia, and then it would be easy to deal with Tang Xia.
After all, Zui Linglong felt that Tang Xia was not a good woman who could threaten her position in Xia sooner or later.
This woman was so powerful that no emperor had ever loved a woman like this before. But Tang Xia did it. She could get everything after winning the emperor's love.
She would not think about retreating, since she had already promised Your Grace in the harem that she would help them realize their wishes that was to kill Tang Xia.
Although Tang Xia had the emperor's love, it was only for a while after all. If the emperor loved the new and abandoned her, then her status would soon fall into the mud. It was not worthy of giving her everything.
After all, Your Grace in the harem should be more reliable. They not only depended on themselves, but also relied on the sergeants, who were the dignitaries and nobles. If Zui Linglong wanted to stay in Xia for a long time, she could not afford to offend them.
Therefore, Nanmen Yi who came from Nanmen was undoubtedly the best tool. Using Nanmen Yi to divide the feelings between Tang Xia and the emperor, and let the emperor believe that Tang Xia did not like him but had feelings for the prince.
As long as the emperor believed that, it would be much easier.
Today, Nanmen Yi drank the wine mixed with medicine, and crashed into Tang Xia and then was hit by the emperor. Zui Linglong knew that the plan was already half successful. The rest would be easy as long as they had a fight and hurt each other.
Chu Tiankuo's heart was full of fire which did not disappear at all, but instead became more inflamed.
Recalling what he saw earlier annoyed Chu Tiankuo immensely. But luckily he still had his senses or Chu Tiankuo would have killed Nanmen Yi from Nanmen.
Nanmen Yi was so bold that he dared to touch his woman. Is Nanmen Yi looking for death? Did Nanmen Yi think that he would be afraid to do something? He was just a prince of Nanmen. Why couldn't he do something to such a prince?
When he thought of this, Chu Tiankuo's face turned black suddenly, and the anger was clearly evident in his eyes. Chu Tiankuo wanted Tang Xia to tell him that there was nothing between herself and Nanmen Yi. It was just a misunderstanding, and nothing happened.
Only he could hold Tang Xia so intimately. Others were not allowed to do this. If anyone dared to do this, he would be Chu Tiankuo's sworn enemy.
”I will not let Nanmen Yi go so easily.”
Chu Tiankuo told himself in his heart.
”Xiaoxia, what happened to Nanmen Yi? Did he have the audacity? What was he trying to do to you?”
Tang Xia was brought back to the present by Chu Tiankuo's obvious mellower voice. In the beginning, Tang Xia had been distracted. She wondered how it would be.
Nanmen Yi did not seem the type of villain who treated women so casually. How could he suddenly rush to hug her? There must be something wrong.
If there was really a problem, then it must be the glass of wine. It seemed that Nanmen Yi started to act strangely after drinking that glass of wine.
He was polite and gentle before. It was impossible to become so strange the next moment. Was she too beautiful?
If the problem lay with the glass of wine, then Nanmen Yi would be innocent too.
He had only recently taken over from the Nanmen Emperor and came to seek divination for Nanmen's destiny. If there was any life and death issues in Xia, it would be really pitiful. It was absolutely impossible for Chu Tiankuo to let him go easily.
No, she had to help Nanmen Yi.
Chu Tiankuo saw Tang Xia lowering her head, and thought that Tang Xia was still thinking about Nanmen Yi. A flame flared up again in his heart, which made his senses almost flare up. Thinking of the scene just now, Chu Tiankuo suddenly said angrily,
”How is it that you are still so casual about what happened?”
Tang Xia didn't want to say anything yet. She wanted to see how Nanmen Yi was, so she had to pass Chu Tiankuo and leave. But she was stopped from seeing to Nanmen Yi after taking only two steps. Tang Xia's arms were grasped by Chu Tiankuo, and she couldn't move at all.
Chu Tiankuo quickly stepped towards Tang Xia, and held her between the wall and himself. He looked at Tang Xia quietly, and then left.
