Chapter 778: The Prince Is Really A Warrior
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
News of Prince Guang’s family entering the capital but completely offended His Majesty, the Empress, Noble Consort Qiao, the little princess, General Bai, and Marquis Yongye quickly spread throughout the capital.
Even for an upright and slow-witted official like Censor Zhang…
When he heard this, he couldn’t help but comment in a daze, “The prince is really a warrior.”
He had offended the people who shouldn’t be offended the most the moment he returned to the capital.
Precise strikes were also a capability.
In an inconspicuous courtyard in the capital.
The purple copper furnace with a crane pattern on the table was burning a pleasant agarwood fragrance.
The spring sun was velvety, casting light and shadows in the room through the tightly shut window.
A young master sitting on the chair was listening to the hidden guards report the recent whereabouts of Prince Guang’s family.
“The Prince offended General Bai because he tried to rope in the general by attempting to get him infatuated with women. He offended Marquis Yongye with his words of disrespect to the princess.
“During that invitation to General Bai and Marquis Yongye to a meal, not only did he not get anything, but I heard that he was also scalded by chicken soup. This was because he angered the general so badly that the latter flipped the table.”
“Later on, Commandery Princess Rouqing quarreled with Princess Yaoguang over a tree at the state school. At night, Grand Consort Yu went to Noble
Consort Qiao’s place to intercede and was scolded and chased out of the palace.
“The grand consort then tried to find the empress to reason things out. Commandery Princess Rouqing was grounded by the empress for five days on the grounds of recuperating. She hasn’t left Zhuyou Palace yet.”
When the hidden guard mentioned Princess Consort Guang, he couldn’t help but look up at his master.
“As for the list of consorts and concubines in the harem that Princess Consort Guang has offended, this subordinate has listed them on paper. Master, please take a closer look.”
After saying that, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve.
The young master took it and glanced at it.
There were more than ten densely packed names.
After knowing that Prince Guang had an unsuccessful start and had offended almost all the powerful factions,
The young master finally couldn’t hold back anymore.
His slender palm suddenly slammed on the table, unable to maintain the elegant expression on his face anymore.
“These trash have almost lost the entire game before they even made a move!” The piece of paper filled with names slowly floated down from the table.
The hidden guards silently felt their master’s anger, but they didn’t dare to persuade him.
He only said truthfully, “Currently, the only person in Prince Guang’s family who hasn’t caused public anger and knows his place is the heir, Gu Xinghan.”
The young master looked up. “Oh? According to what I know, Gu Xinghan is frivolous and unrestrained. He likes to cause trouble the most. Why is he being honest this time?”
The hidden guard pursed his lips and seemed to slow down for a moment.
He then cupped his hands and said, “Three days ago, spring thunder resounded through the sky. His Highness is probably afraid of the thunder. This subordinate heard that he’d been lying in the Zhuyou Palace for two days and has only gotten better recently.”
The young master couldn’t help but pinch his glabella.
His face was filled with worry.
Originally, with Prince Guang’s identity, he wanted to make some plans in the court.
However, he didn’t expect Prince Guang’s family to be so useless.
After a long while, he said again, “Think of a way to send a message to Prince Guang and tell him to keep a low profile for the next few days.
“There’s even less of a need for him to come and look for me now. Otherwise, my identity will be exposed if so many pairs of eyes are on me. Tell him to also remember to take his family in hand and not cause trouble.”
The hidden guard immediately said, “Yes!”
The young master couldn’t help but say, “By the way, is everything ready with regards to the people we arranged?”
“Master, don’t worry. The person we’re looking for stayed in the capital a few years ago and later offended the princess. It wasn’t easy for him to escape death. When he comes back again, he’ll definitely be ruthless and won’t show mercy.”
“Keep an eye on him. Don’t let there be any more mistakes..”
