C132 Communicate with the enemy? (1/2)

”The current situation is even more difficult and troublesome than my own problem.”

After consuming the medicinal pellet, Qin Mai's complexion also improved a little. It had to be said that the effects of the medicinal pellet given by Qin Shaojie was indeed not bad, and was even more useful than the treasures he had obtained in the Imperial Palace. Although this pill would only be able to suppress his illness for three to five days, each and every day was extremely important to Qin Lie.

After pondering for a little, Qin Mai spoke to Qin Shaojie in a low voice. He was very clear that Qin Shaojie had personally come this time not only for his own condition, but also for the rumors in the outside world.

Although most of the people in the Great Yan Dynasty weren't sure what had happened, the Holy Flame Academy could clearly feel the change this time. Based on Qin Shaojie's situation in the Holy Flame Academy, perhaps he also knew that the decision the Holy Flame Academy made this time was related to the Imperial Family.

”I'm afraid Qin Zhu doesn't have that kind of ability.”

had personally interacted with this person before, and even though he was considered a pretty good existence among his peers, it was still not enough for people to see. In Qin Shaojie's eyes, Qin Zhu was just a clown. If not for his identity as the number one direct descendant of the Imperial Family, he wouldn't even be qualified for Qin Shaojie to remember his name.

If he was able to do this, then the Great Yan Dynasty would not end up as the backer of the imperial family.

”This matter is indeed related to Qin Zhu, and she is indeed the one who is in charge of it.”

At this point, Qin Mai's expression changed slightly. This entire matter was too sudden and even Qin Mai, who was within the imperial family, could not react in time. Even so, he had spent a great deal of time and effort trying to figure out some of these things.

However, during the process of stroking, he discovered many things that were unusual and even difficult to understand. First was the matter of royal father's illness. Although the emperor's health had not been as good as it used to be, with the presence of the strong and the alchemist in the palace, his body was still relatively strong. Even if his condition had returned to normal, it wouldn't be as serious as this time.

This time around, royal father's illness had reached a point where his life was at stake. Even a tier four alchemist would be powerless to personally help him. At this moment, royal father was lying on the bed due to a serious illness. His mouth could not speak and his ears could not hear. Other than that slight breath, anyone else would have treated him as a dead man.

No one knew what exactly happened to him, but everything in the palace was extremely normal. In the end, they could only treat it as a hidden illness.

As the emperor, he viewed his own body more seriously than anything. If there was a gradual problem, then it would be understandable, but suddenly seeing things like this was really hard to accept.

It was also because of this that the current Crown Prince Qin Zhu had rightfully begun to take over the matters of the imperial court. Although she was not able to completely control the entire Great Yan Dynasty, most of the authority was gradually in his hands. Once royal father passed away, under normal circumstances, it would be his succession.

Everyone in the palace knew that, so right now, almost everyone was fawning on Qin Zhu. It was precisely because of this that Qin Zhu's power was growing.

”Right now, it's only because he hasn't made a move yet. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so peaceful.”

At this point, the bitter smile on Qin Mai's face became thicker and thicker. Furthermore, for the past few years, he had never been on good terms with Qin Zhu. As long as he had the chance, Qin Zhu would definitely not let him go. This was also the reason why Qin Mai didn't wish for Qin Zhu to ascend to the top. However, at the moment, he couldn't find any reason to stop him.

Hearing that, Qin Shaojie nodded his head, Qin Zhu was a vindictive person, if not she would not have treated him like she did at Lingyun City, and would not have tried to kill him at Holy Flame Academy.

”Secondly, the boldness he displayed in the imperial court was completely different from before. That feeling was as though he already had enough energy to control the entire Great Yan Dynasty. This kind of behavior is very different from a normal phenomenon. ”

He had personally seen Qin Zhu's current state and had to say, that kind of aura was akin to that of a real monarch. At this time, royal father was still in a very ill condition. Although he was qualified to supervise the country, he was merely a supervisor, and it was not his turn to give orders. Most importantly, he was more cautious in this situation, the more careful he was, the more low-profile he would be. However, his current situation was completely against common sense.

This was also not the personality of Qin Zhu that she had seen in the past.

”So, giving up the position of Holy Flame Academy was indeed his order?”

He frowned, although he did not suspect Qin Shaojie, who was mentioned by Zhou Tian, but hearing it personally from Qin Mai, he still felt that it was hard to believe.

But Qin Mai's affirmation made the doubt on Qin Shaojie's face grow even deeper. He naturally knew that he had to make the Holy Flame Academy listen to Qin Zhu's arrangements. As for how much help it would provide to him in the imperial court, even the Holy Flame Academy had to follow his wishes.

But why was Qin Zhu so confident in challenging the Holy Flame Academy?

”Tell me your result.”

After taking in a deep breath, Qin Shaojie's pupils slightly flickered as well. He understood Qin Mai quite well. If that was all he was going to tell him today, then he really wasn't worthy of having Elder Ye help him concoct pills.

After saying so much, it was likely that Qin Li had already made some discoveries. Otherwise, he wouldn't have formed such a large circle.

Besides, it was just as Qin Mai had said, the most heartless family was the imperial family. If everything was just as he said, then Qin Mai now was either preparing to retreat quickly or he would bow down and bow down. However, he did not choose any of these paths. Instead, he quietly waited here, which was enough to point out a few problems.

”The reason why Qin Zhu did that, I am only afraid that he had colluded with the enemy!”
