352. To Make the Announcement Fair and Square (III)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

“The only person who didn’t know that Fang Shuoyang wasn’t Fang Qiuhua’s son was just his mother Zhou Huan, right?”

Liu let a long sigh out. “If so, what did Fang Qiuhua really want to do?”

“We don’t need to know what he wanted to do. He was either tempted or threatened. The one we should care about is Tianxiang Zi. What does she want to do? To get revenge?”

“She is a woman. She can’t be the emperor here, right?” Liu frowned.

“It is impossible for her to the emperor here, but... if she is ambitious, she can control the emperor and reign behind a screen.”

Liu frowned. “She’s just a woman. Is it possible?”

Long shrugged. “Who knows? We don’t know much about her, so we’re just trying to speculate about her motives as much as we can. However, when you mentioned that sacred object, I was suddenly enlightened. Tianxiang Zi must know this stuff!”

After a pause, Liu said slowly, “Since she knows it, perhaps we can ask her directly.”

“Hmm?” Long raised his eyebrows. “Ask her directly?”

“Yes. Let’s do it directly and see if she’ll hide it or not...”

Long touched his chin thoughtfully. It seemed that it had become his signature posture when he was thinking. “That’s a good idea. When nothing is clear, this is the best way to sound her out.”

Liu smiled faintly. “If you think so, let’s just do it.”

“Mhmm. But we have to think about the details, lest we fail to get anything from her, but expose ourselves.”

“I don’t like to think about things like that. You can deal with it. I need to go out soon. Otherwise, I won’t get any corpses for my experiment.”

With that, Liu left directly.

Long thought for a long time in the room.

This time, Fang Shuoyang didn’t return until late at night, but he got angry once he came back home.

The servants had already reported it to the government. Moreover, on his way back, someone also went to report it to the emperor.

Because he was on the way, he didn’t meet the man who went to send the message.

Fang went to Long’s room once he came back. After knowing that Long had thought of a plan, the two of them discussed the assassination.

After that, Fang hurriedly went to the palace.

What was he going to do? Of course he was going to complain!

In addition, he took something with him, which was a portrait of Zhu Qingzi.

Why was that? Because some Shadow Guardians saw the assassin’s face when her veil fell off during fighting!

The assassin just looked like that!

Zhu Qingzi and Tianxiang Zi looked the same. On the surface, Tianxiang Zi was working for Fang at present. However, Fang just took the portrait of Zhu Qingzi and went to the emperor. To be honest, it really wasn’t good for his partner, Tianxiang Zi.

But Long suspected that Tianxiang Zi had an ambition of achieving something in his nation and she had started to take action many years ago.

Therefore, Long didn’t care if she would be hurt or not!

Once Fang arrived at the palace, the emperor met him.

Emperor Zhou flew into a rage after learning that the mansion of the fourth prince, his beloved son, was attacked.

At this time, Long was already asleep in the bed.

The next day, the portrait of Zhu Qingzi was posted and she was wanted all over the country.

Zhu Qingzi never thought that Fang would do this!

Wasn’t her dear sister working with Fang these days?

So what if she tried to assassinate him the previous night?

Shouldn’t such a thing be kept to themselves?

How could he expose her portrait just like this?

Zhu Qingzi was very surprised and angry.

Worry flickered in the crown prince’s eyes. It was no secret that Zhu Qingzi was staying in his mansion.

On the contrary, not many people knew that Tianxiang Zi was cooperating with Fang. At least, no one would get the evidence.

Zhu Qingzi was wanted. The crown prince thought if someone reported that this woman was with him...

then others would think that the one who attacked the fourth prince’s mansion the previous night was him.

The crown prince gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

Zhu Qingzi happened to go to meet him, but he gave the orders immediately.

“Guards! She’s the assassin! Arrest her!”

Coldness filled Zhu Qingzi’s eyes. “Humph, Your Highness, you’re so cruel...”

“How vicious you are! I was almost deceived by you. With good looks, you insisted on staying in my palace, but now you even want to assassinate my brother. You are so bold! Guards! Arrest this assassin right now!”

The crown prince had given orders, so his subordinates didn’t dare to refuse.

Soon, several guards surrounded Zhu Qingzi.

How could the woman allow herself to be seized so easily?

Therefore, a fierce fight started.

Zhu Qingzi always carried a lot of poisons on her.

While fighting, she sprinkled a handful of poisonous powder.

“Ah!” The person who touched the powder immediately screamed.

Then, Zhu Qingzi sneered and sprinkled some powder toward the crown prince.

The crown prince was terrified and tried desperately to hide. Fortunately, he moved fast enough and two guards stood in front of him, so the powder didn’t fall on his body.

Even so, the crown prince was still so scared that he directly fell to the ground, which was really humiliating.

Zhu Qingzi, at this time, had already jumped onto the high wall and left...

The crown prince knew how powerful Zhu Qingzi was in term of poisons, so he began to worry after that woman left.

Moreover, he was burned with anger.

It was Zhu Qingzi who came up with the idea of attacking them the previous night, but she made such a big mistake! How dare she still try to assassinate him? She was really courting death!

The crown prince was furious, so he ordered the guards to chase that woman.

As for himself... he put on the formal costume for the crown prince and hurried to the imperial palace.

He had to go there to apologize and ask for punishment.

Because he failed to identify an evil woman...

It didn’t take long for the things in the crown prince’s mansion to be known to almost the entire imperial city.

After all, he had ordered a lot of guards to hunt down the assassin!

Moreover, he himself also hurried to the imperial palace... So, how could the people in the imperial city not know?

Working for the crown prince earlier, Zhu Qingzi was a big threat. If she could be eliminated in this way, it would be good for everyone...

Long was really very satisfied with the result!
