Chapter 391 Bai Yihao Advanced At Every Step
Although King Xuan, Feng Yuran, had a bad and dissipated reputation, Lin Yu, as the guard of Bai Yihao for years, knew clearly that King Xuan was the most terrible person in the Qin Kingdom. Superficially, King Xuan seemed to lead a raffish life as if he were a fatuous King who indulged himself into pleasure-seeking life, and although he was the most favorite son of Emperor Zongwen, he was just a little overlord like a straw bag.
But how was the fact like!
King Xuan had extremely atrocious means and took action resolutely without any delay. Besides, he was good at calculation, able to get 100% success every time he hit.
He could always launch an attack at the most suitable opportunity, no matter when he was grounded, reprimanded or injured… Every step he took was the most appropriate. It did make Lin Yu who once carefully investigated Feng Yuran’s file begin to worry about his own master. To provoke such a person merely for a woman was not a blessing for the Crown Prince.
As for Feng Yuran who was most likely to become the next emperor of the Great Qin, Lin Yu thought they should make friends with him instead of becoming foes. Otherwise, it would only bring trouble to the Yan Kingdom. After all, no one wanted to make any powerful enemy like Feng Yuran.
He was so calm and easy to play political trickery and handle things perfectly through simple talks and laughs. For many years, Lin Yu only saw one of this kind—his master who was able to advance at every step to make the enemy fall into the trap, even if he was tens of thousands of miles away. And now, there was one more person able to do so, Feng Yuran!
Diamond cut diamond! And the two were evenly matched!
They were just like a Roland for an Oliver. Lin Yu had to admit that if there was someone else in the world who could meet His Highness’s match, the one must be King Xuan.
How could such a person be offended casually? Besides, it was said that he loved his wife so deeply. It was not worth provoking him for a woman. Did His Highness have any other plan? Lin Yu did not dare to ask more, as he admired his brilliant and brave master from the bottom of his heart and believed that the master would not do such stupid things that even Lin Yu himself could see.
Therefore, Lin Yu did not cling to the previous idea too much and followed Bai Yihao’s order wholeheartedly.
But why was Lin Yu still entangled with doubt and anxiety?
“It doesn’t matter if it’s unsuccessful. Let them check the jade token. When the Third Young Miss Mo takes the jade token to ask them to take action, just go to get the jade token and take the Third Young Miss Mo to the Yan Kingdom.” Bai Yihao raised up his eyebrows and smiled thoughtfully, as if he was not annoyed at the inappropriate arrangement.
“Your Highness, should you pay more attention to the First Prince…” Lin Yu could not help asking after thinking for a while.
His words meant to remind Bai Yihao to put on the focus on the First Prince. The jade token was important, but the person was not so. Why did Bai Yihao insist on taking the person here? Lin Yu had a bad feeling.
“There is no need to worry about the First Prince. How is the investigation about his consort who is staying in Prince Manor since she arrived, my fifth cousin, going on?” Bai Yihao gave a slight smile on his glossy face and leaned leisurely against the wide chair back with a look of elegance and calmness on his flawless handsome face, as if all were in his grasp.
Lin Yu knew that his master did not want to talk about it, so he had to answer, “I have investigated that the Fifth Princess and her secret guards are not there, but only a woman looking like the Fifth Princess is in the manor. On the day when the First Prince fetched the bride, the whole welcoming team encountered robbers on the way back. More than half of his manpower was lost during the fight, and most of them were master hands whom the First Prince gathered privately.”
Speaking of this, Lin Yu showed greater admiration for His Highness.
Fortunately, His Highness had mapped out a strategy. The First Prince thought he could tie down the Qin Kingdom by marring the Fifth Princess and seek profit by using the Fifth Princess’s secret guards. But out of his expectation, the Fifth Princess would assassinate him, and he even killed the Fifth Princess with only one stroke, and then, the Fifth Princess’ secret guards fought against his own armed escort fiercely.
Although he had killed all the secret guards of the Fifth Princess, he also suffered a huge loss of manpower, which rattled Bai Yichen a lot. He did not dare to announce to the public that the Fifth Princess had died for fear of bringing the anger of the Qin Kingdom, because it was the crucial moment to fight for the throne. How could he dare to expose the thing at this moment?
Even if he said that the Fifth Princess tried to assassinate him, no one would believe him. After all, the Fifth Princess had died, and a dead person told no tales, so he could make up anything he liked.
His ally, Feng Yuzhen, once asked about the situation of the Fifth Princess for the Empress. Bai Yichen had to make an excuse that the Fifth Princess was ill because she was a newcomer there, and he arranged a person similar to her in his own yard. At this time, Bai Yichen extremely regretted what he had done. If he had not married the Fifth Princess, there would not have been so much trouble. Just as the saying goes, “go for wool and come home shorn”, it exactly described the First Prince’s feeling.
His manor had been in a mess before. In order to conceal the matter, he made great efforts to rearrange his backyard, so he had not time to deal with Bai Yihao’s returning to the Kingdom, which gave enough time for Bai Yihao to set a firm footing in the Yan Kingdom.
“Go to check the woman’s identity to see if she has any relatives, and then to the place where the Fifth Princess was killed and light candles to mourn for her. If someone asks you, you can say you come there for the family love that I have grown up with my cousin.” Bai Yihao instructed evenly after thinking for a while.
“The family love between the Crown Prince and the arrogant Fifth Princess? Did they have it? How can I not know it?” Lin Yu said to himself inwardly.
But he did not dare to say anything but took the order and retreated. Lin Yu knew that the Crown Prince had his own strategy, and every step the Crown Prince took was so meaningful that he could advance step by step.
Did he fail? Inside the room, Bai Yihao stood up, walked to the window and laid up his handsome smiling face. He looked out of the window blankly. The peach trees were in full bloom. As the wind blew, peach blossoms flew down to the ground. He seemed to return to the day when the peach trees were also in full bloom, and saw the beautiful but delicate face, striking and attractive. Since when could such a woman enter his heart and even he could not remove her…
Originally, Bai Yihao did not take the engagement paper seriously and even had some grudge of his mother. Since the third aunt did not want to take revenge for grandparents, how could his mother use such a method to force the third aunt to agree with the engagement that he did not like?
Didn’t his mother think he was unable to get married?
But when did the woman come into his heart? He did not know, and really could not tell, but only knew that he had meant to frame her up in the beginning. He did plan to use her to provoke enmity between Bai Yichen and his mother Empress in the palace so as to destroy their strong alliance.
The man-and-woman love relationship was rather unreliable. Besides, it was the Empress’s plot that the woman, Bai Yichen’s childhood sweetheart, could enter into the manor, but she could not keep the child in her belly and even could not get pregnant this life. It was impossible that there was no hatred inside. And what Bai Yihao did was just to give some strikes to their shallow relationship.
And the strikes directly split their intimate relationship.
But later, he changed his mind!
He maneuvered to send the Fifth Princess to Bai Yichen and carried out another plan. But frankly speaking, Bai Yihao did not like the current plan, because it would take a tortuous course and cause more trouble. That was why he did not choose the plan in the beginning. But when he recalled now, he still thought that this plan was good, at least, he promised her not to use her again.
Compared to Bai Yihao’s indifference, Feng Yuxuan got some exasperated.
An angry expression appeared on his usually gentle face!
He kept circling in the same place while Qin Yufeng held a book and read carefully.
“Yufeng, it is not so easy that you come here. Please tell me what I should do now.” Feng Yuxuan stopped circling, stood beside Qin Yufeng, and asked anxiously.
How could he not be in a fluster? He thought that he had taken a clever step. But he did not expect that none of the secret guards came back, and that he knew nothing about the condition. Even the group of manpower whom he thought he could use at any time also disappeared completely. How could he not reel in the current situation?
“Your Highness, what is the matter indeed? Why did those people seek to cooperate with you? Your Highness, have you ever thought about it?” Qin Yufeng put down the book in his hand and asked lightly. These days, he had been locked by Lord Qin in the room and read books, totally having no time to come out. If Feng Yuxuan had not sent people there, Qin Yufeng would not have sneaked out.
“The group of people were so powerful. When my people fought with them, both sides suffered loss, but they suffered less than I did. So I intended to recruit them, but they made a request that I had to help them to take King Xuan’s Consort away. So I set up the route…” Feng Yuxuan seemed to think about something and banged the table so angrily that the teacups on the table were shaken to bounce up. Then, he sank on the seat beside in anger.
It was only then that he figured out the whole thing, and he was too annoyed and regretful to say a word. How could King Chu suffer such loss? It was really infuriating.
“Your Highness, can you tumble to the fact now?” Qin Yufeng raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
Obviously, the opponent took advantage of Feng Yuxuan’s eagerness to recruit manpower and framed up Feng Yuxuan to set the whole plan to take away the King Xuan’s Consort. From the preparation and implementation of the plan to the inquisition, all were done by the people of King Chu’s Manor. And the opponents just hid behind the scenes and just ran away when the Consort was captured. When Feng Yuran investigated, the matter would fall on Feng Yuxuan.
Every step taken was watertight. Any trace exposed would provoke conflict between King Yan and King Xuan, and the opponents could keep out of the conflict. What a set of interlocking strategies! Sure enough, Feng Yuxuan was framed up by them as well. The opponents were so shrewd to read other’s minds accurately.
“Who set the trap? Dare to provoke trouble between Feng Yuran and me, and he could enjoy the fight beside. But it is a pity that I am not so easy to fool, and Feng Yuran cannot be used as he thought. That person thought it could pin down and disturb me.” Feng Yuxuan said fiercely, with cold anger filling his eyes.
Only he could scheme others, and when was he schemed like that?
He guessed a person because no one but he dared to scheme him at this time!
