393: C393 Enter the Harem

C393 Enter the Harem

Before Hsiang Yunjie and Hsiang Yunkong could meet, Hsiang Yunyang had already used so many tricks. Now, Hsiang Yunjie didn't even know where Hsiang Yunkong was in the Imperial City.

Furthermore, there was still no news about Ye Tian. In Hsiang Yunjie's heart, these two main pillars weren't present. Everything that happened had made him feel restrained.

"Number one, the most important thing right now isn't these things, but my observation. The distribution of power around the Imperial City has started to change!"

Golden Snake Guard Number Three's expression was also ugly. After being by Hsiang Yunjie's side for so long, although he was surrounded by danger and had been handling all kinds of unexpected incidents, this was the first time he had encountered such a problem.

The Imperial City had changed its defenses. Every time such a thing happened, it indicated that something big was about to happen. Furthermore, Hsiang Yunyang was now in power, and even if he used his toes to think, he would know what kind of defensive power it was.

"We still have to wait. Pavilion Master Ye and I, Second Elder Brother, have to appear before we have the right to make a move. Otherwise, if we confront the Crown Prince, we will surely fall into a passive situation!"

Hsiang Yunjie thought for a moment and decided to use the same method as before. After all, this was the only way to express Hsiang Yunyang's ambition.

Although the consequences might be severe, Hsiang Yunjie knew that he didn't have many choices left.

Golden Snake Guard Number Three looked at Hsiang Yunjie's gloomy face. Initially, he wanted to say something, but he could only swallow his words. After all, among them, the things that Hsiang Yunjie had decided on could not be changed.

For a moment, the entire Imperial City was shrouded in a gloomy and tense atmosphere. Perhaps ordinary people would not be able to sense anything, but it involved the important members of the Chu Country's Royal Court. They could feel that the blade above their heads was slowly descending...

In less than half a day, Hsiang Yunyang had already finished setting up the preparations in his hands. Beside him, a gray-white man wearing a coarse linen shirt stood calmly beside him.

This man had never appeared beside Hsiang Yunyang before. Even if Hsiang Yunyang brought him out now, no one would know the identity of this man.

However, in Poison Dragon Army, everyone knew who this gray-haired man was. This was the Deputy Commander of Poison Dragon Lord, Bai Shaan!

Bai Shaan had become the Deputy Commander. It could be traced back to the time when the Poison Dragon Army was founded. He was Hsiang Yunyang's most capable assistant. Hsiang Yunyang wasn't in the Poison Dragon Army, so Bai Shaan was in charge of everything.

Bai Shaan was in charge of the troops and the elite members. In the Poison Dragon Army, apart from the deputy commander, Bai Shaan had the title of teacher.

Bai Shaan's strength was mysterious. Perhaps only Hsiang Yunyang knew about this.

However, Bai Shaan's loyalty to Hsiang Yunyang was deeply rooted in his bones. Although he could replace Hsiang Yunyang, Poison Dragon Lord, completely, Bai Shaan had always regarded Hsiang Yunyang as his absolute master.

"Bai Shaan, the matter has already been laid out. All the activities in the Imperial City have been handed over to you. I still have a lot of things to do. Don't disappoint me..."

In the Crown Prince's Palace, Hsiang Yunyang sat on the main seat with his eyes closed. When he was talking, Bai Shaan quickly came to Hsiang Yunyang and bowed his head humbly, listening to his teachings.

"Rest assured, my lord. The soldiers who refused to listen to the Crown Prince's orders have been secretly dealt with by me. They are all our people now. As long as the Crown Prince shouts for them, it will be the best time to start a fight!"

Bai Shaan's answer made Hsiang Yunyang very satisfied. After all, this road was filled with blood and no mercy was allowed. Not to mention killing an army, even killing all the people in the Imperial City would not be a problem!

"Alright, I'm relieved that you're handling this matter. Now, let's go and prepare. My mind isn't calm, and I even got my old man to take a look at me. If we really find an opportunity, we won't have to go through so much trouble like now!"

As Hsiang Yunyang spoke, he didn't open his eyes. Even though it was just a perfunctory reply, Bai Shaan still respected Poison Dragon Lord's attitude.

After Bai Shaan left, Hsiang Yunyang also stood up and brought the inner official to the inner palace.

When they arrived at the inner palace, Hsiang Yunyang was stopped by the Golden Dragon Guard that was guarding Chu King's chambers. He did not give him any face at all.

Hsiang Yunyang didn't get angry with such a matter, nor did he leave. He quietly stood at a safe distance and waited until the old inner court official was called over.

"Crown Prince, the king's condition isn't serious, and it hasn't gotten any better. Let the king have a good rest now. If there is any situation, this old servant will report it to the Crown Prince at any time!"

The old chief steward appeared, but he didn't let Hsiang Yunyang go in to check Chu King's condition. Instead, he stood in front of Hsiang Yunyang and blocked his way, even more determined than the Golden Dragon Guard.

In this way, Hsiang Yunyang wouldn't be able to find any opportunity here, not even an imperial edict.

"The Head Chief has been taking care of me day and night. I am grateful on behalf of my father. However, the Divine Envoy is about to descend. This matter, if the king did not appear, I am afraid it would not be appropriate."

Hsiang Yunyang informing the old internal official about the Divine Envoy's descent was undoubtedly also secretly pressurizing the old internal official.1

Every time the Divine Envoy descended after the Divine Hall's trial, it was the country emperors of various countries who came to receive it. The Chu Country, which was closest to the Divine Envoy, was duty-bound to receive it.

However, Chu King was currently unconscious. If he wanted to fulfill this condition, the best way was to choose another country emperor to replace the current Chu King!

"Crown Prince, this old servant is really muddle-headed. Before the king was ill, he ordered you to manage the affairs of the Chu Country. Although he was not the king, he had the authority of Chu King. With such an identity, there was no mistake in receiving the Divine Envoy..."

The old official bowed and explained. He was naturally not troubled by Hsiang Yunyang's words.

In the old official's heart, he knew what Hsiang Yunyang wanted to say and what he wanted to do. However, there was a difference in status and the old official could not say it clearly.

"Also, the Crown Prince is still the Crown Prince. Although he is handling the matters of the empire, he can't represent the king completely. It is my duty to look after the king. Crown Prince, please don't speak on behalf of the king!"

The old official was polite and humble just now. Now, he had warned Hsiang Yunyang to lower his status.

In his eyes, there was only the current Chu King. Even the Crown Prince, who was in charge of the government affairs, was not within the range of the old official's flattery.

"Haha, this matter was overlooked by Bengong. The more you care about it, the more chaotic it will be. The Head Chief can understand my difficulties and I believe that Father can also understand the pain of my hands and feet that I am about to do and the pain that I have to bear..."

Hsiang Yunyang did not show any displeasure. Instead, what he said next made the old official who was bending over raise his head. His face finally revealed a trace of an ugly expression.

"I believe that the Head Chief knows about the matter of the surviving Golden Snake Guard from more than ten years ago, right? Our country's secret Public Order has not made any progress for many years. But recently, I suddenly realized that these survivors are actually by our side!"

"How can I ignore something that even Imperial Father wants to resolve? Although Yunjie is my younger brother, he has to pay the price for doing such a dangerous thing. Don't you agree?"

Hsiang Yunyang and the old internal official spoke very clearly. Not only did the smile on his face not have a trace of warmth, it even made the old internal official's heart palpitate.

Inadvertently, this old man's hands started to tremble uncontrollably!
