Chapter 984:? The People From Xili Empire Infiltrated the Capital
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Two inconspicuous people wearing bamboo hats entered Prince Xuan’s Manor.
They were led into the study by a servant.
Prince Xuan and Princess Consort Xuan were already waiting in the room.
The two people took off their bamboo hats, revealing two extremely stern faces.
The middle-aged man standing slightly in front was filled with a biting cold killing intent.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had been located at the borders all year round, he wouldn’t have such a disposition.
His tiger eyes were cold.
Prince Xuan and his wife cupped their hands at him. “Governor Wei.”
Long ago, they had received a secret letter from the Xili Empire.
The letter wrote that the emperor, Ling Tianyin, had arranged for a capable official to come to Great Qi to do something big.
Ling Tianyin asked for Prince Xuan and his wife to give their full cooperation.
When they found out that Ling Tianyin had actually sent Governor Wei Cang, they were all shocked.
This was because Wei Cang was the most intelligent and brave warrior in the Xili Empire!
He was known as Xili’s eagle.
He had always won all the battles he had participated in.
The commoners of the Xili Empire all felt that if Wei Cang had been born more than ten years earlier, he might have been able to compete with the Great Qi’s invincible war god—Old Master Qiao!
Ling Tianyin had actually sent Wei Cang over. It seemed that what they were going to do this time would definitely be very prudent and have a tremendous influence!
Wei Cang said in a cold and unyielding voice, “His Majesty is very dissatisfied with your performance. First, Prince Guang’s family is lost. This made His Majesty very angry.”
Princess Consort Xuan hurriedly lowered her head. “We were lacking in consideration and were too rash. However, I hope His Majesty can forgive us in view of all the hard work we’ve put in for so many years while hiding in the enemy country.”
Wei Cang sneered and didn’t continue to reprimand them. Instead, he asked, “How was the prince taken care of by you guys?”
“His Highness is healthy. The two of us have always doted on him as our own child. It’s just that His Highness’s foolishness… has never fully recovered.” Prince Xuan lowered his head.
Wei Cang took a deep breath. “Her Majesty misses her youngest son very much. Back then, she had no choice but to let you bring the child to Great Qi.
“I’m here on orders this time for two things. First, His Majesty asked me to bring Princess Yaoguang back to Xili at all costs.
“Secondly, with regards to Prince Yun Linzhou, who has been hiding his identity and been proclaimed to the public that he’s your son, Her Majesty hopes that I can bring him back to Xili and return him to her side.”
Prince Xuan and his wife seemed to have been struck by lightning and widened their eyes in shock.
“Take… take Princess Yaoguang away?”
This news was even more shocking than when they heard that the Empress wanted her son, Yun Linzhou, to return to Xi Li.
Prince Xuan frowned anxiously. “This is no small matter. Governor Wei, you’ve never lived in Great Qi before. You don’t know how much the emperor of Great Qi, Gu Yihan, values this only daughter.
“Once he finds out, he’ll definitely go crazy and mobilize his troops to attack Xili.”
However, Wei Cang was very calm. He stared at Prince Xuan and said, “If we have Princess Yaoguan in our control, Gu Yihan will have no choice but to give in.”
“Unless he wants his daughter to die.”
Princess Consort Xuan trembled when she heard this.
She said hesitantly, “But Princess Yaoguang has many experts around her. For example, that Marquis Yongye is inhumanely amazing…
“In the past, we also sent people to try to take Her Highness away, but now, the leader has actually already submitted to Princess Yaoguang and completely became her guard.
“Moreover, this little princess is definitely not as simple as we think. Although she’s young, she’s smart and more amazing than many people.”
