rip on the reins tightened.As Li Chen was returning to the East Palace, a six-person sedan chair, reserved for officials of the first rank, landed softly at the gate of the Duan residence.After finish...Chapter 979: To Zhao Mansion
Li Yinhu panted heavily, but he didn't make any crazier moves.
He raised his hand, spread open Li Yinhu's fingers, and straightened his collar before saying, "Your Highness, if you were King Wen, you would choose to bide your time at this moment, at least based on the current situation. We truly can't see where Your Highness could find a way out. Otherwise, we wouldn't be willing to waste so much upfront investment."
"If a miracle truly happens afterward, we wouldn't mind continuing our previous cooperation."
Li Yinhu sneered, "When I was in trouble, you guys kicked me aside. Do you think you can come back later when I'm better off Dream on!"
"If that day ever truly comes, perhaps the prince would change his mind again. After all, there are no eternal enemies in this world, nor eternal friends. As long as each party gets what they need, who would care about the past"
Having said what he had to say, Long Huaiyu bowed slightly to Li Yinhou and said, "I have finished speaking. Please rest early, Your Highness."
Having said that, Long Huaiyu slowly left the civilian residence.
With cold eyes, Li Yinhu stared at Long Huaiyu's departing figure, a murderous glint in his gaze.
He was considering whether to just kill Long Huaiyu.
But until Long Huaiyu completely left, Li Yinhu hadn't made up his mind.
With a slap that echoed across the room, Li Yinhu said in a low voice, "Zhou Lao, am I truly alone now"
Zhou Xingjia was just about to speak when a message came from outside.
"Your Highness, a messenger from the Zhao residence has arrived with a letter," Xu Wei said at the doorway.
"Get it!"
Li Yinhu's spirit lifted, and he immediately took the letter from Xu Wei's hand.
He tore open the letter and saw only a few numbers on it.
Although the content was scant, Li Yinhǔ did indeed burst into laughter after reading it, as if all his previous gloom and panic had vanished.
Xu Wei saw this and felt uneasy, like a cat scratching at his heart. He boldly asked, "Your Highness, what good news is there What could make Your Highness so happy"
"That's good news."
Li Yinhu turned and set the letter on fire in the candlelight, saying: "Wonderful news."
"In the most crucial moment, one must still look to the Elder's guidance!"
Although it was good news, the lack of specifics left Xu Wei feeling uneasy. He knew he couldn't ask for more details, or he might raise suspicions.
At this moment, Zhou Xingjia's ears twitched. He stood up and said to the prince, "My lord, we need to move location. People from the Dongchang have been searching near here."
Li Yinhu's face darkened, and he said, "Then let's go immediately."
Xu Wei's mind raced, and he asked: "Your Highness, where shall we move to next"
Li Yinhu let out a cold snort and said, "Zhao Mansion!"
"In this capital city, the Dongchang could potentially raid anywhere, but no one dared to go near Zhao's residence."
Xu Wei sighed in his heart, he knew that Li Yinhu's choice was absolutely right.
And Li Yinhu now dares to go to Zhao Mansion, it must be related to the letter that Zhao Xuanji just sent.
It's a pity he couldn't know the specifics.
Just as Li Yinhu and his men were hastily transferring to Zhao's mansion, Long Huaivyu had already arrived at a City God Temple in the north of the capital.
In the temple, the lamps flickered dimly, casting long shadows in the empty halls.
Long Huaiyu strode into the main hall, offered a joss stick to the City God, and then sat on the meditation cushion, waiting quietly.
Soon, an old man wearing a black cloak came in.
The old man removed his cloak, and the dim candlelight reflected in his features.
Zhao Xuanji.is very precious..."When Cui Zhu heard this, she snorted and became unhappy. She said, “What precious things hasn't my young mistress seen If you say it's so precious that you dare not give it to me,...
