Gu Tianqing caught a breath and then buried her face in his back before saying, "That ugly face is so lucky… But it seems weird… How did Rong Yi die? Wasn't his spiritual power going to reach level four? Even you and I could not get near to him. I never thought that he would…"
Rong Yan clenched his fist and said, "Our initial plan should have been perfect to help you get revenge and to remove that ugly girl from the picture. Never thought that there would be such a careless mistake. Sigh. What makes things worse is that master Hu might be onto me for this…"
Gu Tianqing’s complexion started to turn pale but she still consoled him saying, "You were not the murderer… we have nothing to fear. Don’t worry."
Rong Yan shook his head and said, "Most importantly, that incident is a coincidence. Master Hu is afraid that I am trying to frame your sixth sister, therefore, he intentionally brought up Rong Yi's murder… Besides, all this while Rong Yi and I have not been on good terms. Two years ago, he even humiliated me in public, which really shamed me. Right from the start he had not even the slightest respect for me as the prince. Now that this is the situation, the first suspect would, unfortunately, be me!"
Gu Tianqing was stunned and said, "That can’t be!"
Rong Yan laughed coldly in reply, "Why not? If I didn't know what happened and things had developed to this stage, even I would think the same."
Gu Tianqing gritted her teeth and said, "Even if… Even if they… Do think… But they still don't possess any evidence! Even if they suspect you, what could they do? Besides, you are the honored prince and the emperor adores you. Whether you murdered Rong Yi or not, the emperor will not punish you heavily.
Rong Yan shook his head, "That is hard to say! Rong Yi is the only offspring of King Lu who always adored him like a gem. Now that he is dead, uncle Lu had been complaining to the emperor every morning during the court meetings and pleading to the emperor to judge this case heavily and find the real culprit to get revenge for his son. He has an army within his control and my father, the emperor, is aware of this and thus could not refuse this plea. He ordered to have San Si to investigate this case and made note that this case will not be taken lightly…"
After further discussion, Gu Tianqing became angry. "It's all that ugly girl's fault! If not for her, there wouldn't be so many problems! Right, how about we come up with a plan to get rid of her? Let's say that she is Rong Yi's murderer..."
Rong Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "She does not have talent in spiritual power and does not know martial arts. Saying that she managed to kill a fourth level spiritual power like Count Le Hua… Do you think anyone would believe it?!"
Gu Tianqing was disappointed but agreed with his point!
Rong Yan pondered for a while and asked, "Tianqing, the other day when your sixth sister went out, did you see her? Is there any other witness?"
Gu Tianqing shook her head, "I’m afraid when she left there was someone blocking the way. The person that saw her was the one that accused her in front of everyone…"
Rong Yan frowned his eyebrows, "Those two had been imprisoned on the pretense of framing the general’s daughter. I heard that they were even beaten severely, however, they both managed to keep their mouths shut and did not reveal that they were acting under your instructions…"
Gu Tianqing’s heart skipped a beat, "Leaving those two alive is bound to come back to bite us. Rong Yan, you better figure out a way to get rid of them to cut off loose ends."
"I understand, I’ll come up with a plan to keep their mouths shut forever!" Rong Yan said with a murderous air.
They discussed the matter a while longer and the content of the discussion was how to dispose both "witnesses" quietly, as well as how to get Gu Xijiu into a trap.
They both came to an agreement that the priority would be to get rid of the two "witnesses" quickly. However, the matter of how to trick Gu Xijiu into a trap had them entangled.
Gu Tianqing looked soft and gentle, but had plenty of evil thoughts and ideas! However, her ideas were being shot down one by one by Rong Yan. Gu Tianqing started to get impatient and said, "This is not allowed, that is not allowed! Are you still hesitating to dump her? Have you fallen for her?"
Rong Yan’s body stiffened. He blatantly denied it, "How is that possible?! I have always hated that ugly girl. If not for that marriage, I would not even look at her! Tianqing, don’t worry! Even if I’m forced to marry her in the future, I will figure a way to demote her to a mistress and make you my rightful wife."
Gu Tianqing blushed from his response and replied, "I don't want to be married to that bitch! You mustn't marry her!"
"Alright, alright, I won’t marry her. Besides, she is still young, we can slowly devise a plan." Rong Yan tried to calm her down.
"Rong Yan… You can wait. I can wait. Even she can wait. But our child in my tummy cannot wait! Another two or three months and my belly will reveal itself…" Gu Tianqing started to get anxious.
Rong Yan started to get a headache, "Alright, let me think for a moment… Let me think. I will definitely come up with a solution."
He raised his head and looked at the sky and then looked at Gu Tianqing who was beside him. He spoke softly saying, "The sky's getting dark. Tianqing, you should go home. We are in very critical times! Best not to let others know of our relationship…"
They had a brief intimate talk and then released each other hesitantly and went on their separate ways.
The forest regained its peace and quiet. However, as the breeze blew, the leaves from a big tree nearby shook and a person in black could be seen.
All that could be seen was a small head with eyes glimmering as bright as the stars in the sky. It was the ugly Gu Xijiu that they were talking about!
It was apparent that she was not only skilled with teleportation as even her camouflage was top tier!
She hid within the tree, blending into the darkness. Even though they talked for so long, no one noticed her.
She sat on a tree branch with one leg swinging in the air. It seemed relaxing. Furthermore, it proved that sacrificing her beauty sleep to stalk them ended up being fruitful!
She had heard plenty of inside scoops! "Pearl carved with name… Pregnant for around two months… Cruel plan to get rid of the two witnesses..." How could she live up to their expectation if she did not come up with a plan of her own?
She looked down for a moment and stood up to stretch her back. It seemed like she would not be getting her beauty sleep tonight as she needed to get some stuff done and let this evil couple suffer!
Just when she was about to get up, she felt a presence and quickly turned back! But behind her were only trees, there was nothing else in sight. She raised her eyebrows curiously as she felt a breath behind her neck just now…
