Chapitre 33: So Ugly

Éditeur: Atlas Studios

Zheng Fugui returned quickly and threw Zhu'er to the ground. The latter was already terrified. If she had known this would happen, she would not have coveted the ten taels of silver.

There was no need to interrogate him.

Zhu'er told him everything that had happened.

The patrolling soldiers of the Five City Defense Divisions happened to pass by. Seeing the fight here, they came in to check. Zhang Ronghua ordered them to take Zhu'er away and deal with Shen Hongniang's corpse.

They were the only ones left in the room.

Ma Ping'an asked, "What do you plan to do with the Heavenly Fragrance Tower?"

"What's the word?"

"Do you still remember Eunuch Xiao, who came to the East Palace to deliver the message last time?"

"His descendant outside the palace?"

"Granddaughter!"

Seeing that he was deep in thought, Ma Ping'an continued, "The Heavenly Fragrance Tower also suffered an undeserved calamity. With her intelligence, she will compensate us when we get out. It's better to sell Eunuch Xiao a favor and forget about it! Of course, you have to decide what to do. If you want to touch him, I'll support you!"

Zhang Ronghua smiled and patted his shoulder. "One more friend means one more path. Since it's none of her business, forget it."

Zheng Fugui, who had been listening intently, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his cousin let go of Xiao Mi. If his cousin really wanted to touch her, he would extinguish the only good impression he had and stand firmly on his side. To him, no matter how big the world was, it was not as important as his cousin. If anyone dared to harm his cousin, he would destroy their entire family!

"Go!"

They left the room.

Xiao Mi had been waiting in the courtyard with two maidservants for a long time. The moment the door opened, he quickly welcomed them with a smile. "I've frightened the three lords. This is a gift I carefully prepared. Please accept it!"

Two maidservants stepped forward, holding three exquisite purple jade boxes.

Zhang Ronghua said, "The Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant is a famous restaurant in the capital. It's very high-class and receives guests from the upper echelons. Such a thing shouldn't have happened to you. You should reflect on yourselves."

"You're right!"

He accepted the jade box and left.

While her cousin was not paying attention, Zheng Fugui winked at her as if to say that he had played a huge role in this matter. She shot him a grateful look.

They parted at the door.

When they returned to Vermilion Bird Workshop, Shi Wen was still awake. He was waiting for them and closed the courtyard door. "Two young masters, I've made a pot of chicken soup. Drink it before sleeping!"

"Sorry to trouble you."

After drinking the chicken soup, they entered the room.

Zhang Ronghua sat on the bed and took out the purple jade box that Xiao Mi had given him.

After opening it, there was a crescent moon embroidered with the words 'Heavenly Fragrance'. It was purple, and there was a hundred-year-old Vermilion Fruit beside it that contained majestic and rich spiritual energy.

"How generous!"

Just a Hundred-Year Red Fruit was priceless. He wondered what was in their jade box.

He put away the crescent moon token and ate the Hundred-Year Red Fruit. A huge amount of spiritual energy circulated in his body and circulated the Black Yellow Heaven Splitting Technique to refine it, making the Black Yellow True Essence improve a little. He would be able to break through in a few days.

In the morning.

As soon as he came out, Zheng Fugui finished practicing the Mountain River World Suppressing Fist and couldn't wait to come over. "Cousin, what's in your box?"

"A crescent token and a hundred-year-old Vermilion Fruit."

"Why is mine a Profound-grade high-grade pill?"

"Ask her."

Shi Wen had already bought breakfast. After eating, they went to the East Palace.

The Crown Prince was not around. As soon as the sky lit up, he brought Qing'er into the palace. Only Shuang'er was present. The Empress had ordered someone to send a batch of spiritual items that contained the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that was not visible on the market.

"Come and help."

Zhang Ronghua went over and took these things into the storeroom with her and placed them on the shelf.

Looking at the Sky Jade Jade Brew, there were a total of 30 pots. Could so many Crown Princes finish it?

Noticing his gaze, Shuang'er teased, "Are you addicted to alcohol?"

"It tastes good."

"Want it?"

"Can you make the decision?"

"I can't say anything else. I'm in charge of the logistics. I can still make the decisions for two pots of Sky Jade Jade Brew."

Zhang Ronghua did not stand on ceremony. He took the Sky Jade Brew from her and put it into his Five Dragon Spirit Control Belt. "Has Your Highness gone to receive the envoys of the Nanman Kingdom?"

Only the two of them were present. Shuang'er did not hide it. She raised her chin proudly and sneered. "They're not worthy!"

"The morning court is going to discuss their reception today. His Highness naturally has to be present."

They left the storeroom.

Ma Ping'an found him and handed over a list of names and cultivation introductions. "These are the people I chose from the Golden Scale Mystic Heaven Army. Take a look. If you have no objections, transfer them to the Flood Dragon Guard."

The Golden Scale Mystic Heaven Army was the Imperial Guard and was in charge of the Imperial Guard Palace. They were all elites and their individual strength was comparable to the Flood Dragon Guard.

"Have you informed the higher-ups?"

"His Highness has suffered such a loss. They have to compensate."

"You're in charge of this."

When they reached their usual spot and stayed in the shade, Zhang Ronghua continued to slack off. Occasionally, he would take out a purple grape and throw it into his mouth.

In the afternoon.

As the Crown Prince returned, he was forced to end his slacking and call him to the Xuanhe Hall.

"The envoy of the Nanman Kingdom has been arranged to be in the Qinghua Hall. The True Dragon Hall is in charge of protecting him. He'll rest for a day today. Tomorrow, I'll bring them around the capital."

The Qinghua Hall was a high-level posthouse. The imperial family was specially used to receive dignified foreign guests.

"What about the marriage?"

"The candidates have been chosen. There are a total of three of them. They're all from the side branches of the imperial family. They have empty reputations and no power at all. The painter will arrange their appearance and birth characters and hand them to him in the afternoon. On the other hand, Princess Fenghe is more difficult to deal with. Ever since she saw me in the hall, she insisted on being my concubine. I've already rejected her righteously. She hasn't relented and is in a temporary stalemate."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Wait for the mastermind to attack!"

The next day.

Zhang Ronghua led the Flood Dragon Guard and guarded the Crown Prince. He saw the envoy of the Nanman Kingdom in the Qinghua Hall.

In addition to Crown Prince Fengyi and Princess Fenghe, there was also a Prime Minister called Feng Zhengyi.

The Feng surname was the national surname of the Nanman Kingdom. He was a member of the imperial family.

Unlike the people of Great Xia, their eyes were dark gold, and their hair was mainly golden. The men were rough, the women beautiful, and their figures were fiery like a foreigner.

After staying for an hour, according to the agreed agenda, they strolled around the capital. The soldiers of the Five City Defense Divisions cleared the area in advance and stayed for a while at every famous place.

The next day, Crown Prince Fengyi found an excuse to leave with the side family's Princess Anhe to increase their relationship. Only the Crown Prince was left with Princess Fenghe. She was not tired at all. She walked many places in a day and seemed to not stop until she had seen all of the capital.

Meditation Lake.

The periphery was surrounded by soldiers from the Five City Defense Divisions. There were Flood Dragon Guards protecting it, as well as the personal guards she had brought—the Qiong Qi Guards. They surrounded this place like an iron bucket.

In the pavilion, they were playing chess.

Zhang Ronghua was standing relatively far away and only Zheng Fugui was beside him. Seeing his lips curl in disdain, he asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"She's so ugly!"
