Shen Subing and Long Chu stepped together in the wide palace hall, surrounded by soldiers who already knew the identities of the two of them. However, these soldiers did not dare to reprimand or disturb them, but only watched from a distance with curious eyes.In the silence that enveloped the hallway, Long Chu spoke in a low voice, “What did you find during your investigation?”Shen Subing took a deep breath before replying, "There's nothing too suspicious. However, this is still strange. The reason is, only the three nearby kingdoms were present early. the Lei kingdom represented by King Lei Guang, the Chu Kingdom and the Bai Kingdom. With his representatives."Long Chu's expression became more and more serious, "Didn't King Bai come in person?"Hearing the question, Shen Subing shook his head, "No, King Bai did not come alone. He sent his representatives to attend this meeting. Maybe there's something more important he needs to take care of."Long Chu frowned, feeling that there wa
"Promise to help me become the Crown Prince, then I will say it," Qing Huan said sharply, confident that the information he had was very valuable and could be used as a bargaining chip."Are those the only requirements?" Long Chu asked with an expression of disbelief, his eyes focused on Qing Huan's face full of confidence."Of course!" Qing Huan exclaimed, clenching her fists and looking at Long Chu excitedly.Long Chu smiled sinisterly, then stood up gracefully, "Then just bury your dreams!" he said coldly, before continuing, "Thank you for the banquet." He prepared to leave, disappointing Qing Huan's expectations."Didn't you think further? This concerns your kingdom, Prince Chu!" Qing Huan exclaimed scornfully, trying to get Long Chu's attention back.Long Chu stopped in his tracks, his body trembled for a moment as if he was in deep thought. However, he then continued his steps without looking back. Meanwhile, Qing Huan smiled sarcastically, confident that she still had a trump c
That morning felt so calming, the sun slowly appeared, dispelling the darkness of the night. The cool air is filled with the sound of birds singing sweetly. The dew nesting on the leaves was blown away by the wind, creating perfect harmony.Long Chu woke up from his sleep, feeling strange and confused. The man blinked several times, trying to adjust his vision to the morning light that was starting to creep in.The strange feeling that came over his body became even more pronounced when he realized that something was unusual.When his vision cleared, Long Chu discovered a woman sleeping beside him. His facial expression changed to one of surprise and worry, "Ah shit, what happened?" he muttered softly.Long Chu tried hard to recall what happened last night. However, his memories felt vague and difficult to reach. He felt his body becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the presence of the woman beside him. Meanwhile, the woman sleeping beside Long Chu began to show signs of awakenin
Nam's bodyguard was seen running fast through the palace halls, his breath short. After asking several people, he finally found Long Chu's room and knocked on the door hastily."Prince, prince is serious!" shouted Bodyguard Nam while swallowing hard, his face ashen.Long Chu immediately opened the door of the room and saw Bodyguard Nam who looked scared. "What's wrong, Bodyguard Nam?" Long Chu asked while glaring at him and patting Bodyguard Nam on the shoulder to calm him down."Queen, Lady Mo, your grandfather, as well as Commander Shen, they are missing, Prince!" Guard Nam exclaimed in a trembling voice."Disappeared? How could that be? We are in the Imperial palace, not a place that anyone can enter!" Long Chu said with anger radiating from his sharp eyes.Long Chu ran out of his room, followed by Shen Subing as well as Bodyguard Nam who continued to tell how they disappeared without a trace. They ran towards the room where they were last seen, and saw the chaos that was happening
Long Chu took steady steps towards Prince Qing Huan. With a cold expression planted on his face, he stared intently into the young prince's eyes. "Oh, do you now accept my offer?" Qing Huan asked teasingly.However, before Qing Huan could get an answer, Long Chu suddenly pushed him with full force so that Prince Qing Huan bounced into the wall of the room. The objects around them scattered, impacted by Long Chu's push.Not only that, Long Chu also immediately strangled Qing Huan's neck tightly, making the young prince's breath hitch. Qing Huan's face was red, a sign that she was having difficulty breathing."W-what are you doing?" Qing Huan hissed, trying to speak even though it was difficult. In a state of urgency, he tried to kick Long Chu, but it was as if a force was locking his strength. His hands waved to the sides, looking for any help that might be around them, but in vain.Long Chu continued to stare coldly at Prince Qing Huan's face, as he continued to strangle his neck. His
Long Chu stood in his room, his brow furrowed because of the anxiety that had been haunting him for a long time. Suddenly, the bedroom door opened and Shen Subing walked in with unsteady steps."Did you get enough rest?" Long Chu asked, trying to hide his anxiety.Shen Subing shook his head, his face looked pale and haggard. "How can I rest when my heart is not in a good condition like this? I'm worried that they will kidnap him if I just stay in the room. Therefore, I and Nam's bodyguard continue to walk around the area."She held out a piece of paper that looked worn out, "This is a message from someone. He shot an arrow at us at that time."Long Chu received the paper, his heart pounding as he read the message written on it. His face changed, as if he had confirmed the anxiety that plagued his heart. His eyes looked at Shen Subing sharply, "We have to act now, before it's too late.""They are indeed quite brave," Long Chu said in awe as he folded the newspaper he had just read.She
Several figures penetrated the darkness, walking slowly towards the mysterious cave. Before long, they were greeted by a shocking sight: several people were tied to poles, helpless. "How did you sleep?" said a cynical man, his face flushed with satisfaction at having complete control over the situation. "Let us go, do you know that we are Imperial Guests?" Shen Zi Ran shouted full of anger and regret. A cruel laugh escaped the man's lips. "Ha ha. Of course I know, we were the ones who kidnapped you from the Palace. It is precisely because you are guests of the Empire that we dare to take this reckless step. You must have extraordinary valuables, don't you?" His posture was dashing, tall, with a short sword around his waist. The green clothes he wore made his cruel impression radiate even more. His hands were tightly clenched into fists, his eyes could not be separated from Queen Ling Hua whose face was untouched by time. Beautiful and charming, like a teenage girl. Ling Hua is kn
Long Chu lay weak, his body lying stiff and cold. He was still conscious, but didn't have the energy to get up and fight. This realization was a torture in itself, seeing himself in a helpless state.Po Lan was shocked when he heard the sound of approaching footsteps. He had just separated Queen Ling Hua from Long Chu and brought her to an altar that he had prepared, complete with a soft mattress waiting."What is it?" Po Lan asked in a wary tone, "why did you enter without permission?"“We brought the person we were instructed to bring, Master Po Lan,” answered one of them, pointing at the sprawled Long Chu."Good," said Po Lan, an evil smile on his face. "Put him there, right in front of the Altar. let him see what I will do to his mother, Queen Ling Hua."They obeyed Po Lan's orders and placed Long Chu's body at the designated place.Po Lan squatted in front of Long Chu and grinned, "It is rumored that you are a very great person. had even defeated King Bai. But look at you now, so
