Chapter 278 - Gossip, You’re a Cheap Woman (1/2)

There were traces of big boss blackening due to his past, but right now, Nan Xun has no idea where she provoked him. It’s him who made her learn the art of witchcraft, but he blackened when she showed her smarts, and he blackened even more when she deliberately slowed down.

Gosh, he’s so hard to please.

Little Eight comforted her, “Don’t worry, don’t worry ah, if he’s blackening then so be it, his original blackening value was 90, it wouldn’t be that much different if he turned 100. Anyway, as long as his evil value doesn’t rise, it can be counted as successful.”

Nan Xun crossed her arms, “But a big boss with 100 blackening value is a bit abnormal… I’m afraid”

Little Eight, “What a bull, your last syllable still can undulate and turns up and down three times, and you say that you’re afraid?”

Fortunately, Gong Moran’s blackening value finally stopped at 96 and didn’t grow any more, which gave Nan Xun a breath of relief.

Since the last time they met, the Fifth Prince had shed his impulsive movements, bringing himself with a low-key attitude. It was obvious that ever since he heard that shocking secret, he started to devise another plan. However, there’s no movement from Gong Da too except for occasional glances that hid a murderous intention towards Nan Xun.

As for Princess Yao that clamored that she wanted Gong Shijiu to die an unnatural death, she became even more unusually obedient, as if she had forgotten about her mortal enemy.

Nan Xun looked at the little paper man that she drew with Five Heart Locking Spells, one more thread has broken.

Everything seems calm on the surface, but who knew if it was actually the calm before storm?

Little Eight yawned, “It’s been boring recently ah, big boss evil value hasn’t dropped, that Princess Yao is about to marry to Donglin Kingdom, she wouldn’t just let things be for you, how come you’re meditating right now?”

Nan Xun, “Little Eight, what do you mean? You don’t like me being idle, and you’re so anxious for someone to make trouble for me, is that it?”

Little Eight stopped talking.

“I’m inseparable from big boss every day, it’s not strange that Princess Yao doesn’t act against me, she just couldn’t get the opportunity to act.” Nan Xun said, her tone was a little smug.

However, Nan Xun’s face quickly swelled up.

Overnight, the story of her seducing and tarnishing State Teacher had spread through every street and lanes, and more importantly, the fact that she was once the top-star of Drunken Moon Tower was also spread out!

Everyone cursed her for being a shameless woman, and how although she was the elegant Lady Qiangwei, she’s still a prostitute after all. They thought of how noble and refined she was, but she actually planned to defile the revered State Teacher. Such a shameless loose woman!

This gossip stirred up a spectacular unrest that the matter was heard by the royal court above on the second day.

State Teacher wasn’t a monk, but he was just like one who has a pure heart and have a little to no desires in the eyes of everyone.

People in the royal court impeached Gong Moran one after another, thinking that he had broken his abstinence for a woman’s lure, moreover, this woman was once a brothel woman, his ‘divine’ character has been defiled and that Gong Moran was no longer worthy to be Nanyun Kingdom’s noble State Teacher any more.

These courtiers who gave impeachment were all Second Prince’s subordinates who wanted to promote him. Second Prince already realized that State Teacher stood by Fifth Prince’s side, that’s why he just couldn’t wait to get rid of this thorn in his flesh.

But the Old Monarch obviously believed in State Teacher, he became furious and demoted those courtiers as punishment when he heard these impeachments.
