373 The Ghosts 9 (2/2)
The Han Emperor still didn't understand that his well thought of plan was merely wishful thinking.
The palace guards started to move to obey the Emperor's word, in the end, no matter how nasty he was... the Han Emperor was still the current Emperor. They needed to obey his words. However, after only taking a few steps, they were stopped by Xiao Fang's words. ” Who dares to move?!”
They were rooted on the spot. Who dared to fight with a ghost ah~?!
The palace guards' leader furrowed his eyebrows in displeasure. He didn't believe that the ghost would capable to do something to him, so he decided to defy Xiao Fang's order and move once again. He was a general if he let a woman ghost deter him, wouldn't it ruin the fame that he had gained so far?!
Without saying another word, Xiao Fang smirked. This man was really looking for death ah~!
Suddenly, his head was cut off out of nowhere and the blood spurted out everywhere --- some of the palace guards' leader's subordinates were bathed in their boss' blood which made them stun and didn't even dare to move anymore. Their boss' skills were pretty good and yet, with a mere smirk of the ghost, he was dead just like that.
How could they not feel afraid? They decided to just disobey the Emperor's words.
This time, it wasn't Yao Ling's work because the latter's hand was being held down by Yao Ying. Her power stayed calm whenever Yao Ying was doing that.
It was one of Feng Yong Rui's hidden guards who actually did the killing. He was specialized in killing using soft and thin thread. He had been working on the trap slowly all around the Han Emperor and the wicked concubine because their main targets were those two.
They didn't plan to kill the Han Emperor, after all, he was still the Emperor. This thread was used to handle the Emperor's pesky subordinate. Everything had been within Feng Yong Rui's calculation from the very beginning.
Xiao Fang had served her purpose as a distraction with her ghost's disguise. No matter how powerful a man was, if his mind was distracted, he wouldn't pay attention to small details. Those generals were too shocked by the ugly truth and the nagging of their spouses, thus, they didn't realize when the trap was planted slowly. Besides, they sat pretty far from where the royal sat and there was no outstanding general at the Han Kingdom. The good ones mostly were guarding the borders at this moment and didn't join in with the fun.
Yao Ying was quite surprised by Feng Yong Rui's subordinate's skills. It seemed like the latter had a lot of hidden cards, otherwise, everything wouldn't be as smooth as this ah~! In a way, Yao Ying understood the reason why the Han Emperor wanted to get rid of Feng Yong Rui. The latter's influence was too powerful and outstanding. Judging from the look of it, if Feng Yong Rui wanted to become an Emperor, it was probably quite easy to seize the throne from the useless Emperor.
Just like how it was in each kingdom, the Emperor was always feeling wary of their loyal subordinates.
The audience stunned when they saw what happened to the palace guards' leader. They knew that the latter was quite powerful but his head was cut off easily by the Ce Fei's ghost, making them didn't dare to do anything. It was too scary ah~!
Looking at so many weird and unbelievable things, they started to feel even more afraid of the ghost.
