Chapter 366 The Night Attack (Part Two) (1/2)

”……” Yun Shang thought for a while and said, ”I had no choice at that time. Please forgive me.”

”You can call me Yinfeng.” Liu Yinfeng smiled like a fox.

Yun Shang frowned, but she was eager to know what the so-called incense of Buddha was. After a moment's silence, she cursed in her heart, 'Fox Liu.' But she gave a faint smile and said, ”Yinfeng.”

Liu Yinfeng nodded, his smile deepened and his voice was full of tenderness, ”the scent of Buddha is a common product of some famous killers in the state of Xia. It is used to mislead people's mind. The target would be drowsy. If someone is a little weak in will, he may have to answer the questions. However, this is weak in body, but it needs to be very weak in health. It is often effective for patients. If the dose were a little larger, people would directly pass out. But there is one flaw of the incense. It's a long-lasting and persistent scent. If the incense is not properly handled, it is very likely to reveal its whereabouts. ”

Yun Shang kept silent on Prince Jing's words. She now know why the odour of the oil in the prison was so strong that day. She guessed that the culprit was probably trying to mask the special smell of the incense of buddha. Since it belonged to the state of Xia, how could the crown prince of the the State of Xia not know it? And the emperor of the state of Xia also knew it. In order to cover up the truth, they used a lot of oil to make the illusion that it was burning in the prison.

The door wasn't broken, but Hua Jing had been replaced. There were many traps in the prison, but the guards were not activated. All Hua Jing needed to do was to verify whether the guards in the prison were cured or not.

”Since his crown prince has been in jail for such a long time, the emperor of the state of Xia would have saved him if he wished. Why?” Yun Shang looked at Liu Yinfeng and asked the question she had been thinking about.

Liu Yinfeng grinned and said, ”The crown prince... The emperor never fancies the crown prince, and... ”

And he suddenly stopped, smiling and squinting. ”These are some secrets of the state of Xia. It's not the right time to tell you.”

Yun Shang fell silent. Since the Emperor didn't like Xia Houjing, why did he appoint Xia Houjing as the crown prince?

The doubts in Yun Shang's eyes were too obvious, so Liu Yinfeng smiled again, ”why do you want Liu Qingya to be the empress, not your mother?”
