Chapter 82.1: So It’s the Imperial Uncle
“Your Majesty, Mu Wushuang ate water chestnut cake, pineapple tart and other snacks. She also drank the tea, but…… she still did not die!”
While morning court was still in session, an ashen faced eunuch came shuffling in to report on the situation in the Imperial Garden.
“What? How is that possible! ?”
Ximen Sheng was so surprised he forgot to suppress his voice, and all the officials in court lifted their head to look up at them.
Ximen Sheng tried to pretend everything was fine as he glanced at Long Moshen seated just below him with a complicated look in his eyes. In order to have Mu Wushuang killed, he had purposely summoned Long Moshen who did not need to attend court to come in today, to avoid any unexpected incidents.
Never had he thought that Mu Wushuang would be able to still live after she ate the snacks laced with lethal poison, and remain unaffected.
In order to prevent any future nightmares, Mu Wushuang must be killed. With that thought weighing on his mind, Ximen Sheng was not really in the mood to attend morning court anymore.
“All my well cherished officials, bring forth any issues if you have any, or morning court will be dismissed if there’s nothing.”
Ximen Sheng called out in a clear voice towards the officials before him.
No one among the officials made a sound. Just as Ximen Sheng was about to dismiss morning court, he heard Long Moshen’s indifferent sounding voice sound out.
“Since everyone has nothing to bring up, then let this Prince here tell His Majesty about something that happened.”
Ximen Sheng’s brow knitted up, as an ominous feeling rose up inside.
Because Long Moshen’s legs were crippled, only he was sitting down while all the other officials were standing, but his presence there did not feel weak in the slightest. When his icy penetrating gaze fell upon a person, it made the person feel like there was nowhere they could hide.
Ximen Sheng hated Long Moshen deep in his heart, but he could never ever let that show on his face. Because Long Moshen had fought together with the late Emperor to build the Howling Moon Dynasty’s empire, he did not dare to disrespect the man too openly, as the spit of disgust he would come to receive from the older generation in the Imperial Court would be enough to drown him.
“A matter that the Imperial Uncle wants to talk about must be something of great importance. Will the Imperial Uncle please feel free to speak.” Ximen Sheng put on an earnest look, to appear like he was eager to learn from the man’s words.
But who knew that Long Moshen would go on to disregard all that completely, going on to snort derisively instead, before he pulled out a stack of papers to throw right onto the Second Prince’s face!
“The Second Prince has some doggone impetuous audacity to dare attempt to assassinate this Prince’s future bride to be. Will you also come to order a bounty onto this Prince’s head to have me assassinated as well?”
Those words immediately frightened all the drowsiness out of the Second Prince who was nodding off, almost losing his bowels. How did Long Moshen find out! ?
Ximen Sheng’s face turned pale as well, but his self control was a lot better than the Second Prince’s, and was still able to toss out a few words with a smile.
