Chapter 1772: Exposed!
Translator: Lonelytree
After an unknown period of time, a gust of wind blew through the dark and gloomy passage, causing the light of the oil lamp to flicker!
Then, he put down the oil lamp and touched the wall on the side. With a clang, a small hole appeared in the wall.
Under the illumination of the oil lamp, a mask and a sword appeared in the small cave.
After putting on the mask, he took out the sword and continued walking forward.
In a short while, he had already walked out of the entrance of the passage.
At this moment, he was already in a small courtyard on the outskirts of the capital.
It was obvious that this was the secret passage of the Imperial Grandprince Residence, or rather, it was a secret passage hidden in the heart of His Highness Yuwen Xuhong since he was young.
As soon as he appeared, three black shadows flew towards him and knelt before him. They shouted in a cold and emotionless voice,” Greetings, Hall
Master!”
The red-faced hall master of the capital city branch of the Yama Pavilion.
Regarding his sudden appearance, the three of them did not ask about it. None of them said anything, just fulfilling their duties.
Yuwen Xuhong asked coldly,” Has Cult Master appeared in the Demon Cult recently?”
The three black shadows replied,” Hall Master, no!”
“Then can you bring my words to Cult Master?” Yuwen Xuhong asked anxiously.
Whether it was his Imperial Uncle or his Imperial Grandfather, they were all suspicious of him. Moreover, because he had maligned Princess Lin Yuelan, his situation in the Imperial Court was already somewhat awkward and embarrassing.
However, it was a good thing that his royal grandfather had asked him to shut himself in to reflect on his mistakes.
He didn’t want him to face these gossips, mockery, and awkward situations.
However, what he did not expect was that during this period of time, he actually obtained an unexpected surprise.
One of the men in black said,” Hall Master, I’ve already sent your words to the leader. However, there hasn’t been any news from the leader.”
When Yuwen Xuhong heard this, he frowned and said in confusion,” How could that be? Could it be that the Cult Master had not returned to the Demon Sect? Otherwise, why would he not do anything about such a huge temptation?”
Then, he ordered,” Continue to send people to investigate. Then, reply to me as soon as possible!”
“Yes, Hall Master!” The three men in black immediately replied.
“I still have something to instruct you!” Yuwen Xuhong continued,” Quickly send someone to investigate Lin Clan’s woodworking workshop, Lin Clan’s housing company, Linyue Pavilion, and Mengyue Pavilion. What’s their relationship with Lin Yuelan? Could it be that the people in charge of these industries were really Lin Yuelan’s close friends? After you’ve investigated it, report it as soon as possible?”
The Lin Group’s woodworking workshop, housing company, and hospital were all linked to the Lin Group. Moreover, they all had the word ‘Lin’ in Lin Yuelan’s name.
These were most likely Lin Yuelan’s property.
The three men in black replied,” Yes, Hall Master!”
After Yuwen Xuhong instructed his subordinates, he thought for a moment and said,” Also, go and investigate if Jiang Yunfengs current fate has anything to do with Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan.”
He didn’t believe that Jiang Yunfeng had been thrown out of the carriage and ended up in this state.
Moreover, even if Jiang Yunfeng was really thrown off the carriage, Lin Yuelan was capable. Could she not save him?
Now, she was still letting Jiang Yunfeng continue to lie on the bed.
Obviously, this was intentional.
Therefore, he only needed to find out if Jiang Yunfengs paralyzed state had anything to do with Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan.
He also heard that Jiang Zhennan had invited Duke Guo to be the witness of the marriage.
Jiang Yunfeng was clearly still alive.
By doing so, they were clearly treating Jiang Yunfeng, their biological father, as nothing. This was extremely unfilial.
Right now, the people outside were charmed by Lin Yuelan and Jiang
Zhennan.
What he needed to do now was to expose their true colours.
However, this time, he must not be reckless. Otherwise, if he failed, his outcome would be the same as Noble Consort Zhou’s party.
He had to calm down and plan properly.
Black Clouds Kingdom
The man in black who had appeared in the backyard of the Imperial Grandprince Mansion was kneeling respectfully in front of Xiao Jingrui, the Emperor of the Black Cloud Kingdom.
“Master, this subordinate has already passed the message to Yuwen Xuhong according to your instructions! ”
Xiao Jingrui asked expressionlessly,” Did he have any reaction?”
The man in black said,” He seems to be very angry!” Whether it was targeted at Lin Yuelan or them was unknown.
Xiao Jingrui said coldly,” Well, that’s good! Where is that person now?” That person was the most important chess piece he had planted in the Longyan Kingdom.
” Yes!” The man in black replied,” He has arrived at the imperial city of Longyan Country!’
Xiao Jingrui replied,” Okay, give him an order. Tell him to stay put and wait for my order!”
He replied,” Yes, Master!”
