Chapter 1291: Spit It Out?
....Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xue Wufu began to try and untangle his rope, trying his best to hide behind the bed.
He was on the bed and there were also many blankets. No matter how much he tried to hide, it was obvious that there was someone there.
Fu Ying walked to the side of the bed and lowered her eyes slightly. She looked down at the person who was tied up and gagged. After a long time, she finally said, “When he comes back, you must thank him on behalf of me.”
These words were obviously directed at the butler of Prince Xu’s estate who was following behind.
The butler had not seen the appearance of the person that Prince Xu had ordered to be captured. However, he had heard Empress Fu Ying say that this person was very good-looking. Otherwise, she would have made a big fuss instead of asking to say her thanks. It was true, Xue Wufu was very good-looking. Naturally, he did not feel like there was anything wrong. He only hurriedly replied, “Yes, yes, yes. I will let him know immediately. Thank you, Your Highness.”
Immediately, two guards came up and carried Xue Wufu away.
Xue Wufu struggled violently.
“He’s not very obedient.” Fu Ying said lightly.
One of the guards immediately understood what she wanted them to do and raised a hand to knock Xue Wufu unconscious.
Xue Wufu was speechless.
Not long after Xue Wufu was taken away by Fu Ying, Fu Xu returned.
The butler quickly reported that Fu Ying had come over and was very satisfied with the person who was gifted. Fu Xu was happy that he had brought the person into the palace today.
He felt that with a handsome man accompanying her, Fu Ying would not be in the mood to deal with any government affairs. In that case, it would be even easier for him to replace her in the future.
“Your Highness, there’s one more thing. This is it.” The butler reported. As he spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve. “This was sent by a beggar. He said that an unknown person gave him two pieces of silver and asked him to send it over at noon. Because it was shown on the letter that it was personally from the Emperor, I did not dare to open it casually.”
Fu Xu took it suspiciously and opened it.
When the letter was opened, it read…
“Da Ling Emperor’s fifth brother, Xue Wufu, is currently in the second room in the West wing of the main courtyard behind your residence. I estimate that Emperor Xue Yan will come personally in less than a month to find him. Pay attention to what happens next.”
Fu Xu was shocked and quickly sent someone to check the place that was mentioned in the letter.
At the same time, he studied the letter.
Rumor had it that Emperor Xue Yan was extremely loyal and even protected his foster parents’ family very well. If Emperor Xue Yan’s brother, Xue Wufu, was really in his residence, he could wait for Emperor Xue Yan to walk right into his trap!
Usually, he did not dare to do anything to anyone in Da Ling. However, such a big pie, no, a fat piece of meat, had fallen from the sky… Why should he give away the best piece when it was the one served right in front of him?
Moreover, as long as they could capture Emperor Xue Yan, the Emperor of Da Ling, they could not only threaten Da Ling to hand over the method of making cannons and gunpowder but also steal their current weapons and change the tides. This move could severely dampen Da Ling’s spirit.
When he ascends the throne and becomes the Emperor of Beicheng, he would have cannons and gunpowder in his hand.
What’s there to be afraid of?
The butler glanced at the contents of the letter and muttered with a frown, “We went to that room just now. The Empress was there too. The servants threw the Ni family’s third son into that room. The Empress said to take him away from that room. I don’t see anyone else…”
Sure enough, after a while, someone came to report that there was indeed no one in the room.
Fu Xu was furious. “How dare you play with me! Men, go and capture that beggar. Make sure that he is interrogated properly and find the person behind this silly prank!”
