THE EVIL PRINCE AND HIS PRECIOUS WIFE
Chapter 56 – Danger in Front of Yu Shan
Over the years, the Prime Minister's Palace and Zhen's Residence have maintained close ties. However, ever since Murong Yue's death, Jian er's removal and the death of the two elders in Hou Manor, were, they began to interact less and less with other nobles and only showed respect and hospitality by exchanging gifts during the festive season.
Madam Du rarely held open banquets for the past ten years because she did not want Murong Ye to be close to them. To his dismay, this time they submitted a proposal to Murong Xue to arrange a dinner at the Zhen Residence; they even sent out invitation cards to invite him to the Prime Minister and Duke's Palace.
Are they trying to get that relationship back?
The Prime Minister's family and the Duke's family were the pillars of Qing Yan's strength, it was the right move for him to retract their relationship, but this was not the right time to do so…
“Nona Murong, what is your sister's plan after this?” Ye Tian Qi's voice sounded from behind once again, while Madam Du raised her ears and listened.
"It's me myself not so sure either." Murong Xue muttered.
Murong Ye did not like academia and martial arts, not to mention other things as well, if he became a general in government, he would definitely have it mess up everything, he said, it might be better to stay home and continue to be Lord Hou for the rest of his life!
Ye Tian Qi thought to himself, and continued, “If he wants to become a general, he can start with Chong Wen Men's right hand.”.
Chong Wen Men was a cunning general, but he was the one who could manipulate other generals and he was famous for his skill at nurturing new people. Ye Tian Qi's motive was clear, to develop Murong Ye……
Murong Xue looked at Ye Tian Qi and saw him smile, “This is the will of the Emperor.”
Murong Rou's unscrupulous plan against Murong Ye was known to everyone in the city, including the Emperor. His deeds for the past fourteen years were recorded and conveyed to the Emperor, it was apparent that Murong Ye had been manipulated.
Murong Ye and Murong Xue were the twin brothers of Murong Yue. It seemed that Murong Xue was very intelligent and intelligent, her own brother shouldn't be too bad. If he managed to gather himself back on the right path again, he would grow into an extraordinary person, even if he would never be as strong as Murong Yue in serving the country, she said, at least he can still ease the burden of the country…
“About this.. I have to ask my brother first.” Murong Xue explained further, “You should know, he is the most valuable in this house, if he starts his life with this position, he will not get used to it, he will not get used to it, and it would be a pity if he messed things up again…"
Ye Tian Qi nodded in agreement, “I understand this, your brother is still young, he may be a little mischievous, as you said. He will not get used to his adult working life, it all depends on him now.”.
The conversation continues. Madam Du could no longer listen to what they said, her brows furrowed tightly, and her eyes were filled with madness. Murong Xue had only suggested a plan yet she received praise and honor from the Emperor and the Emperor even noticed your Murong. The strategy must be very significant…
No wonder the Prime Minister's Palace and the Duke suddenly wanted to regain their friendship with the Zhen Residence.
The Prime Minister, Duke Cheng and Murong Yue had been childhood friends since they were children, yet they were no longer in contact because Murong Yue's own children were still too small.
Now, Murong Xue had solved the problems of the nation and the Emperor with her brilliant strategy, this was more than enough to prove that Murong Yue's daughter had grown up. Therefore, they were prepared to involve Zhen Manor in their upcoming moves and to increase Murong Ye's abilities as well!
Madam Du's thoughts were in her mind.
Now that Murong Yue had died, they decided to take on the responsibility of taking care of her children? It was certain that even though Murong Ye was incompetent or unable to do anything, they would still ensure Murong Ye's position in the palace and he would maintain a comfortable life for the rest of his life.
No, no, no, how did this happen? Murong Yue had long since gone from this world, Jian Er should have been in his position inside the house, Murong Hua was useless in his life, and was only a toy in his hands, he said, how could he possibly be the heir to Zhen Manor?
Undoubtedly, he had to make a suitable plan flawlessly before Jian Er returned, he could not let Murong Xue meet with the Prime Minister and Duke Cheng.
“There's something I have to do tomorrow. I will take my sister out for a vacation.” said Murong Xue indifferently. His order from the shop had arrived, and he had to start his journey to Mount Yu.
Ye Tian Qi nodded, “He is very young and with all the things he is facing, he should really come out and further clear his mind.”.
Madam Du's eyes immediately sparkled, she looked at Murong Xue and smiled coldly. He was just about to set up a plan for Murong Xue, and now Murong Xue himself had fallen into his trap, even the gods were helping him!
Murong Xue, just wait and see!
Ye Yichen stood nearby and seeing Du watching Murong Xue, he stared for a moment and suspected something…
Mount Yu was very far from the city. Murong Xue had chosen the best horse he could find in the city. After several hours of travel since midnight, he finally reached the foot of Mount Yu at noon.
Mount Yu was as tall as he could imagine, surrounded by mountain mist even after a warm sunlight shone on the mountain!
Murong Xue stood in front of his horse and raised his eyebrows upon seeing that huge mountain. It would definitely be hard to find Di Yang grass here, Master Teacher Ouyang only told him that the grass could be found at the top of the mountain, he had to climb all the way there to find it.
“Kakak, we're ready!” Murong Ye stepped forward. He was carrying a black bag behind his back, Shuang Xi and Feng Tuo who were following him were also carrying the same bag behind them, inside the bag was a piece of equipment that Murong Xue had prepared and some food.
"Let's go in!" Murong Xue muttered and stepped onto Yu Shan.
The sun shone on the leaves, the birds chirped merrily, and the whirring of the wind accompanied those who climbed the mountain.
“Ah... Snake...” Feng Tuo's groans sounded from behind. Murong Xue turned around only to see a five-meter-long green snake sticking its fangs deep into Feng Tuo's skin his blood turned black in an instant as it seeped into his shirt.
“This switch is venomous!” Murong Xue narrowed his eyes, turned his body towards the venomous snake quickly and stabbed it using a short blade from his sleeve.
The poisonous creature seemed to sense the danger around it, loosening its grip on his shoulder and crawling away as fast as possible, hitting Murong Ye and the fleeing Shuang Xi.
Shuang Xi did not expect such a powerful blow and was thrown into the bush for five meters, her eyes were tightly closed and her body was motionless, her face as pale as paper, and her, fortunately his chest moved up and down which signified he was still breathing…
Murong Ye dodged the snake's attack and jumped in front of Murong Xue, “Sister, we're in trouble now!”
“Of course!” Murong Xue knew that the mountain was extremely dangerous and that was why he prepared himself well for the test, however what he could not imagine was that Mount Yu was much more dangerous than he had anticipated, they only traveled a few meters and one trip…
He looked at the giant snake, he opened his mouth wide and ran forward towards the two…
