C69 Part1

....

When Murong Ci came to the Phoenix Building, she happened to see Young Master Li being hung in the lobby by Princess Zhaohua.

That day, her dress was very ordinary, wearing a silver mask, hiding in the crowd watching from the sidelines, without saying hello to Rong Lan.

She didn't understand Princess Zhaohua's careful planning until Murong Yu arrived with his two attendants.

'Sister, your elder brother naturally hopes your wish will come true.'

The few officials in the Phoenix Building saluted Murong Yu respectfully, trembling all over.

A cold sweat abruptly wet the entire back of their robes.

She stood among the group of guests on the second floor, with her head facing down, and she saw Murong Yu's sword-pointed gaze sweeping past.

The heads of the officials were so lowered that their necks were almost like broken, and their legs were shaking harshly and non-stop.

Murong Yu's eyes slid past a white-clothed boy wearing a silver-white mask with his head down.

After a momentary pause, he slid his gaze away as light as a feather.

The silence spoke better than any other words.

He didn't say a word, didn't say anything, and that made those officials even more confused and panicked.

The rest of the guests, including those in the Phoenix Building, bowed and dared not move.

"Prince Regent, please help me..."

Murong Chang prayed in fear and very pitifully, with her soft eyelashes condensed with crystal clear tears.

When Young Master Li heard the officials salute the intimidating man respectfully, and called him the 'Royal king', he thought of the prestigious name and iron-blooded wrists he was famous for, and immediately wondered if tonight he'd come out of this place still alive after this.

'In the Imperial Palace, who doesn't know the fame and skill of the Royal King?

Who doesn't know that once you offend him, you will end up with a disability or spend the rest of your life in fear?

Who doesn't know it's wiser to take a detour when you met him on the other side of the street?'

Thinking of this, his head started shaking on his neck, and he knelt down immediately.

But as he did so, the stunning beautiful Young Man he was so fond of whispered to him:

"I'm Princess Zhaohua.

I order you to quickly take me as your hostage.

This Princess will reward you a hundred taels of golds, if you do so!"

'Princess Zhaohua?!'

Young Master Li was struck by a thunder again.

His face became pale instantly and he wanted to cry without tears,

'Of all people did I really provoke the beloved Daughter of the Emperor, Princess Zhaohua?!

Why did I f*cking offend Princess Zhaohua?!

But what's even weirder and unbelievable is that this aloof Princess actually wants me to hold her as hostage?

Did my ears mishearing or something!?'

"Hurry up and take this Princess quickly!

If you don't do as I told you, this Princess will make you break into pieces, and have you beheaded!"

Murong Chang whispered angrily.

"Eh......"

Young Master Li looked at her puzzled, then tugged at her, with an ugly expression on his face of someone who wants to cry.

Seeing this scene, Murong Ci looked at the sky speechlessly.

'Princess Sister, what kind of a tragicomedy are you dispalying in here...

Do you really think Murong Yu would turn into an ignorant man at your mercy?'

Murong Yu stared at Young Master Li coldly, and although Murong Yu's face was obviously beautiful and handsome, it made people feel like being stared at by the Demon Lord climbing up from Hell, with his dark eyes that turned like a pair of faint stars, that made people feel embarrassed, and his breath was like an arrow that could kill with a single shot.

Young Master Li was so frightened that his face was frustrated.

His knees gave out with a "plop", and he knelt on the ground and wailed:

"Royal King, please have mercy on me...please forgive me...

I didn't intend to harm the Princess!

It's the Princess that..."

"You A*shole!

How dare you hold this Princess hostage!"

Murong Chang scolded him harshly and kicked him hard.

Young Master Li was kicked to the ground, and didn't dare to get up, crying violently.

Murong Ci held her forehead with one hand,

'This Young Master Li is really just a failure straw-bag among the golden Jades!'

Murong Yu quietly looked at him, with a puzzled expression.
