3901: The End of Princess Rao (2)

The End of Princess Rao (2)

"Right now, the Junwu Empire and the Dongsang Kingdom are fighting fiercely in the Peace Grassland. They're about the same level, and it's still too early to tell who's going to win."2

The more Raoxi said, the more excited she became. "This is the best time for the Northern Yan Kingdom to get involved! We'll get a big share, no matter if we side with the Dongsang Kingdom or the Junwu Empire!

"Father, I'm in favor of…"

However, before she could finish, the king silenced her with a wave of his hand.

Princess Raoxi looked at him in bewilderment.

The king stared at her. "Is that why you wanted to kill Feng Wu?"

Princess Raoxi said, "Yes! It's said that she's Jun Linyuan's favorite. Capturing her will keep Jun Linyuan from taking action. Father, what's wrong with that?"

The king thought to himself, "Normally, I wouldn't think much of it, but things are different now. Feng Wu is…"

"Father, Feng Wu has to die!" Raoxi screamed at the top of her lungs. Her head kept banging on the ground, and soon, blood covered her forehead. It was a ghastly sight.

Normally, the king wouldn't have let his daughter do such a thing, but now, he was staring at Princess Raoxi with a cold look in his eyes.

The queen looked from the king to Princess Raoxi…

Somehow, she felt uneasy.

The king sighed and said to Princess Rao Xi, "So, apart from trying to kill Feng Wu, you also wanted to kill me, didn't you?"

He had almost been tricked by Raoxi and forgotten about her most fundamental mistake.

Princess Raoxi shook her head repeatedly. Her pale face looked so harmless, but…

The king didn't give her a chance to explain herself. Instead, he summoned Zhao.

Soon…

Little Dian, who worked in the royal study, Lady Mei, and all her servants entered the hall.

Seeing this group of people, Princess Raoxi didn't seem pleased.

As expected…

Her father knew!

Princess Raoxi remained calm, but the queen was panic-stricken.

Princess Raoxi threw a dirty look at her, telling her to calm down.

The queen wanted to calm down as well, but she couldn't. That was the crime of trying to murder a king…

The king stared at Princess Rao Xi. "I'm giving you one last chance. You'd better tell me yourself. You know what will happen if I reveal the truth!"

Raoxi looked up at the king and asked a completely unrelated question.

"Father, you won't do anything to Feng Wu, will you?"

Although the king didn't answer, Princess Raoxi wasn't stupid. She knew that her father wouldn't touch Feng Wu.

She smiled bitterly. "Father, why? Why? Is she that likable?"

The king thought, "That's right. Feng Wu is the Patriarch's favorite."

It didn't matter if he liked Feng Wu or not. The Patriarch liked her.

He was the ruler of the kingdom, but the Patriarch was the real leader behind everything. He could make anyone the king. That was just how things worked.

Princess Raoxi smiled bitterly. "Father, it's Feng Wu… I've found out everything. Feng Wu had the study set on fire on purpose, and she was the one who sold the medicine to Lady Mei… She has poisoned you so badly. Father, please believe me!"
