Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Pei Qian told the Fourth Prince everything and saw that he had been appeased, he had no intention of staying any longer. After all, he had a lot of things to do now. He really didn’t want to stay here and waste time with this piece of trash.

However, Pei Qian didn’t expect the Fourth Prince to suddenly cause trouble again.

“The sacrificial ceremony will be held the next day, but you’re saying that you won’t participate now?” Pei Qian frowned at the Fourth Prince. Although there was no anger in his tone, anyone who knew him would know that he wasn’t in a good mood.

“Things are so dangerous now. If 1 participate in the sacrificial ceremony, won’t I become a target? What if those northern barbarian spies choose to cause trouble at the sacrificial ceremony? What would I do?!”

The Fourth Prince had not forgotten what happened after he was kidnapped by mountain bandits on the way to the northern region.

He had once believed that the martial arts skills he had learned in the capital were enough. At least, he could deal with those experienced guards and martial artists in his residence with ease!

However, it wasn’t until he suffered that blow in the northern region that he realized that everything he had thought was his delusion!

…..

In front of those desperadoes, the dilettantish skills he had learned made it difficult for him to even protect himself, let alone kill enemies.

After understanding all of this, the Fourth Prince chose to be cautious. After hearing the Immortal Master say that he would have a bloody calamity recently, he thought that there might be danger at the sacrificial ceremony.

Originally, he was still a little hesitant. After all, such an event was very beneficial to winning over the hearts of the people. However, after hearing from Pei Qian that Pei Zhaoyue and General Gao had been killed in front of everyone, his original hesitation finally dissipated.

Yes, it was very important to win the hearts of the people!

But if he died, what was the use of winning people over?!

For them to visit his grave?

“Besides, Song Tao, I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to go personally.” As if seeing through Pei Qian’s plan, the Fourth Prince took the initiative to persuade him again. “The sacrificial ceremony is so important, so those northern barbarian spies definitely won’t let go of the chance to cause trouble that day. If anything happens if you go, I won’t be able to explain it to my uncle.”

The Fourth Prince’s words were very perfunctory, but he really didn’t want Pei Qian to go there personally because…

“Besides, that day was so important, so you have to stay by my side to protect me!”

Although he wouldn’t participate in the sacrificial ceremony, the Fourth Prince knew that he had to go there personally that day. Otherwise, there would be no way for him to explain himself.

The only person the Fourth Prince felt at ease with was Pei Qian. Therefore, he was worried that something would happen to Pei Qian and he wanted Pei Qian to stay behind to protect his safety.

Pei Qian stared at the Fourth Prince for a long time before saying in a low voice, “Then I can only let Erlang go.”

“Then it’s settled!” Upon hearing Pei Qian’s suggestion, the Fourth Prince immediately nodded eagerly and he quickly asked, “Isn’t he in charge of the defense of the entire Cloud Mountain City? Why did something happen to Aunt and the others?!

“With my temper in the past, I would have punished him long ago. I didn’t pursue the matter on account of you, Song Tao, so he should act as the chief priest this time to atone for his crimes!”

The Fourth Prince hid his sinister intentions as he looked at Pei Qian and asked, “He probably won’t refuse.”

Pei Qian didn’t say anything. He only nodded in agreement to the Fourth Prince’s suggestion before bidding farewell and leaving.

When Pei Qian came to look for Lu Ze, it was already late at night. After a night of trouble, he could finally enjoy a rare moment of peace.

After Pei Qian entered, he sat opposite Lu Ze. After he picked up the teacup on the tea table and drank it all, he praised in satisfaction, “This is good tea.”

After Lu Ze glanced at him, he ordered people to refill the tea. Then, he said, “You seem to be in a good mood. Why? Did my brother make your wish come true again?”

“Before I could mention it, he took the initiative to quit being the chief priest.” Pei Qian thought of the Fourth Prince’s actions just now. Although he had helped encourage all of this, he still felt disgusted that things had really developed to this point.

He actually spent so much effort to support such an incompetent person for so long!

“The arrangements have been made, but there’s something 1 think you should know about.” Lu Ze told Pei Qian about what had happened at the medical center. Then, he said, “Kong Xunqi wants to start with Duke Huai Yang’s ministry, and for the grandmother and grandson in Duke Huai Yang’s ministry, the best bait is letting Princess Ning Fu get what she wants.

However, I think that becoming the Fourth Prince’s concubine is no longer what Princess Ning Fu wants the most now.”

“She wants to escape?” When Pei Qian heard Lu Ze’s reminder, he guessed that Princess Ning Fu might have other plans. However, could it be that she was plotting with the head of a medical center to do something to the Fourth Prince?

“I’m afraid it’s not that simple.” Lu Ze shook his head gently and turned to look at the night sky outside the window. “The matter with the medical association will end tomorrow.”

Originally, 1 didn’t intend to alert the enemy, but there wasn’t enough time. Although there’s no conclusive evidence to prove that the Kong family’s medical center was involved in the hemp leaves incident, there are many clues that point to the Kong family.

Therefore, I’ll have to trouble you to make a trip tomorrow and deal with the Kong family.”

There was something fishy about Kong Xunqi. Lu Ze had begun to suspect Kong Xunqi right when he began to investigate the hemp leaves.

However, because Kong Xunqi had always been very cunning, they had not found any evidence that pointed to him.

“Don’t worry, we’ll deal with each one of them.” Pei Qian nodded. “We definitely won’t let a single fish escape!”

At this point, he suddenly thought of something and looked up at Lu Ze. “What about Madam Liu? Are you really fine with letting her face the people from the medical association all alone tomorrow?

According to my understanding, those people don’t have good intentions!”

“Sui Sui has already told me not to worry.” Lu Ze lowered his eyes and thought about what Lin Suisui had said to him previously. Although he was a little worried, he didn’t want to interfere with Lin Sui’s arrangements. “But I’ve already decided to go with her tomorrow. I just won’t appear in the beginning..”
