Chapter 812: Chapter 810: Thwarting Wu Dao’s Conspiracy
“If I wanted to trap you to death, would you still be alive right now?” Chu Yifeng countered Chu Yihan.
Chu Yihan snorted coldly.
Su Yingxue tugged at Rong Sheng’s sleeve, “Sister Rong Sheng, did you poison him?”
Otherwise, how could Chu Yifeng’s attitude have made such a sudden three – hundred – and – sixty – degree turn?
Rong Sheng shook her head, “He will help us kill Wu Dao.”
???
If no poison was involved, then how did Chu Yifeng’s madness get cured?
Su Yingxue looked at Chu Yihan, who appeared unconcerned and even pushed a bowl of ginseng bird’s nest in front of her, telling her to replenish her strength properly.
Seeing that Chu Yihan had accepted the situation, Su Yingxue didn’t make a fuss and started eating.
However, she noticed some changes seemed to have occurred between Rong Sheng and Chu Yifeng.
Chu Yifeng was more enthusiastic towards Rong Sheng, constantly serving her food until she said she couldn’t eat anymore, and even then, Chu Yifeng was still thinking about what dessert to prepare for her after dinner.
As Chu Yifeng became happier, he ate more, and Rong Sheng occasionally served him a few morsels of food, then Chu Yifeng would behave like someone stricken with madness.
After they finished eating, the night was dark and windy.
When everyone had settled down to rest, Chu Yifeng led them to the underground information chamber.
This was an underground castle with rigorously designed mechanisms on all sides. Once the stone wall dropped, it became cut off from the outside world. Apart from Chu Yifeng, who could operate the mechanisms, no one else could leave.
Chu Yifeng allowed them to see it openly because each mechanism could only be activated with his blood.
Even if Su Yingxue saw it, without his blood, she couldn’t move any mechanism.
Once inside the Stone Chamber, Su Yingxue gasped, “Hubby, those who are ruthless to others are even more ruthless to themselves.”
To open the secret chamber just once required blood, which ensured high secrecy, but the cost to oneself was considerable.
If one had to open it several times a day, one would wonder if Chu Yifeng’s blood would be enough.
Chu Yifeng, as if having eyes on the back of his head, turned around and looked at Su Yingxue coolly, “If you hadn’t married Chu Yihan, your tongue would now be for sale on the black market.”
His Silver Moon Pavilion black market sold everything, not just gold, silver, and jewels which were common, but also human lives, and even positions of officials, empresses, and imperial consorts were available for purchase.
Su Yingxue puffed up her cheeks.
Chu Yihan rubbed her head, “Don’t be afraid, if he says it again, Your Highness will cut out his tongue.”
Su Yingxue’s smile blossomed beautifully, “Hubby is the best!”
The idea of a husband stabbing his brother for his wife’s sake shouldn’t be too adorable.
After a moment of levity, the group began to focus on their joint strategy.
Chu Yifeng was in control of Wu Dao’s whereabouts, “Wu Dao has reached the vicinity of Yungui City, but he has not entered the city and has not found me yet. 1 speculate that there are still people he is waiting for.”
“Who is he waiting for?” Su Yingxue asked.
Wu Dao had countless inscrutable schemes. Only Rong Sheng, who had crossed through time, could understand and grasp them clearly.
Rong Sheng told them, “He is waiting for the pillar of the Great Wei Dynasty, the royal family member.”
Chu Yihan said gravely, “Qin Muyan, half of the Great Wei Dynasty’s military power, is in his hands. Once Qin Muyan dies, Great Wei will be thrown into chaos.”
Just like him of the Great Cheng Dynasty, Han Yuwen of Qi State, and Princess Beiling Rong Sheng.
Each one was a power and military might consolidator among the Four Nations.
All were targets Wu Dao intended to deal with.
“That is to say, once Qin Muyan arrives, Wu Dao will make his move against you!”
Su Yingxue clenched her fist tightly. Wu Dao had used her death to strike at Chu Yihan, waging war against the Great Cheng Dynasty.
Han Yuwen, being his student, would undoubtedly submit to him. That left Chu Yihan, Qin Muyan, and Rong Sheng. By killing Chu Yihan and Qin Muyan, and making Han Yuwen and Rong Sheng conquer Great Qi and Beiling City for him, he could then let Chu Yifeng unify the Great Wei and Great Cheng Dynasties.
The Four Nations would all be under his control!
