Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl-Chapter 987 - : The Empress ’Ruthlessness

Chapter 987: The Empress ‘Ruthlessness

“Sit down and talk slowly,” Zhang Ronghua said.

He took a banana, peeled it, and handed it over.

Ji Xueyan’s red lips parted slightly, and she took a bite. Her deep and beautiful eyes fell on him, waiting for an answer.

He still held her hand. If possible, Zhang Ronghua didn’t want to be like this either. There were some things that couldn’t be said clearly. For example, this time, he had clearly taken the blame for the Xia Emperor. Once it was exposed, the hidden mastermind would know that the Emperor’s body had recovered, and the consequences would be very serious.

He could even be poisoned in the palace. He could guess with his toes!

In the eyes of the mastermind, the Xia Emperor’s body was deteriorating day by day. He had to wait patiently. When he died, it would be the time to turn the tables and change the situation.

If he had known that the Xia Emperor had lived for another eleven years, or even twelve years, would he still be as calm as he was now?

With Emperor Xia’s great talent and strategy, even if he calculated it according to eleven years, he would be able to solve most of the problems and return the Xia Dynasty to peace. He would ensure that the imperial power would be handed over to the Crown Prince.

The mastermind behind the scenes had also thought of this and would definitely not give it to them. Otherwise, they would be the ones to die. A cornered dog would do anything. If they worked too hard and something happened to Emperor Xia’s body, the Xia Empire would be in danger! The Shang Dynasty would definitely not sit still and wait for death. They would definitely join forces with ferocious beasts, true spirits, demons, and ghosts to pounce on them and bite off a large piece of meat, or even destroy the country!

Even if the Xia Emperor was able to hold on, he would still suffer great losses if he were to engage in a battle with the people in the dark. It would also be disadvantageous for the Xia Empire, losing at least several prefectures, or even more, and countless soldiers would die tragically on the battlefield.

The current method was just right. It was like boiling frogs in warm water. They would advance quickly according to the plan and devour them. By the time they realized that the situation was already set, there would be no way to turn the tables.

Right now, he was only friends with Yang Hongling! ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Hiding her cultivation wasn’t because she didn’t trust Ji Xueyan, but because she had two identities. The first was her own woman, and the second was the precious daughter of the Grand Tutor.

What if!

If she and the Grand Tutor went against each other and fell out with each other, only one side would survive. Which side would she stand on?

If it was just him, it wouldn’t matter.

But he also had family and friends. Once he lost power or was killed, who would protect his father, mother, uncle’s family, and those who followed him?

At that time, it would not be just one person who would die, but countless!

He couldn’t afford to gamble! He didn’t dare to gamble!

Unless the Grand Tutor was toppled and he stood at the peak of power in Great Xia, he would be able to face everything. Even if he were to be enemies with the dynasty, he would be able to win. Only then would he be able to lay his cards on the table?

He was responsible for himself, his family, and his friends.

He thought about a lot of things in a moment, but he did not show it on his face. He said gently,” The Five Elements Righteous Sword Technique has the experience of the Righteous Lotus Sword Formation. With this as the foundation, it is not difficult to create a profound sword technique. I’ve been thinking about it all this time. I have a ready-made prototype in my mind. Only by combining the two can I achieve what you see.”

Ji Xueyan passed the peeled fruit over. Zhang Ronghua took a bite and continued,” But these five martial arts techniques are different. They involve a whole new path of cultivation. There are many more problems to consider. If there is a slight mistake, the person who cultivates them will be doomed. How can a person who has spent so much effort to cultivate fall on such a small matter? That’s why I spent a lot of energy.”

Ji Xueyan believed him. It wasn’t difficult to create a normal martial arts technique. With her current martial arts foundation, she would be able to create a yellow grade martial arts technique with some time. As for the mystic grade martial arts, it would take more effort. To create a martial arts technique with the Righteousness attribute, and it was even a top grade mystic grade martial arts technique, it would be even more complicated. The effort required would definitely be huge!

Other than that, one also had to have heaven-defying talent.

Zhang Ronghua was able to create five in five days. No matter how terrifying his talent was, he had to put in a lot of effort to do it.

After everything was cleared up, she stuck out her delicate tongue like a little girl who had done something wrong. Her crescent moon-like eyebrows blinked.” I’ve wronged you.”

Zhang Ronghua was not feeling good either. If there was a small possibility, he would have laid his cards on the table. However, there were many things involved. Imperial power, family, and so on. All of these had to be considered. He did not say anything and carried her over. With her back facing him, he held her soft hands and rested his chin on her shoulder.

The two of them did not speak, enjoying this rare quiet time.

Suddenly.

Ji Xueyan’s exquisite and beautiful face turned red, like the sunset. It dyed the rainbow red, all the way to her ears. She said in an inaudible voice,” D…” It’s my turn.”

“Ignore him,” Zhang Ronghua said.

“Oh!” Ji Xueyan gave a long reply.

After a while.

Seeing that his breathing had become hurried and unnatural, she gritted her teeth and pressed her tongue against her teeth, as if she was making a decision.

Thinking of Zhang Ronghua’s contribution without any regrets, silently standing behind her, supporting her with his actions, giving all the glory to her, even if he had been ordered by the old man to stay in the Hall of Ten Thousand Books for five days, he still thought of her. His heart felt warm, and his hesitant heart became firm. He stood up from his arms.

Zhang Ronghua didn’t understand. It wasn’t even midnight yet and he was going back?

What Ji Xueyan did next was something he never expected. It was true! He didn’t think about it at all.

With a clap of her jade-like hand, a palm wind fell and extinguished the lamp.

In the darkness.

Ji Xueyan knelt on the ground and slowly lowered her head…

He did not expect that this would be the result.
