Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler

Chapter 334. Will He Be Very Scared

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Late at night, the whole Palace of the second Prince was enshrouded in the anger of the Crown Prince.

“You such idiots! I just want the cause of the death of my brother! But now you all told me that you haven’t found it yet, and just told me my brother died of poisoning! Poisoning? Of course, I knew he died of poisoning! I want to know what the poison is and how he got poisoned! And you couldn’t answer any of them! You’re a bunch of crap!!! I’m going to tell the emperor and let them cut off all your empty heads!”

The Crown Prince’s anger made all of the imperial doctors quivered. they all knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

However, this was the only thing they could do now since they really couldn’t find out anything useful at this moment.

As for the imperial doctors, they could know the Crown Prince had been poisoned at the first met. Yet until now, they still knew nothing about the poison, let alone in which way the Crown Prince got poisoned. That was the shame of them!

However, now, there was one thing they could feel more at the bottom of their hearts than guilt, and it was fear.

After all, they all would be chopped off the heads once they couldn’t figure out which kind of poison the second prince got.

But unfortunately, they still couldn’t find out the answers, no matter how furious the Crown Prince was and no matter how the Crown Prince threatened them.

The second prince was poisoned, and this was the only conclusion they got after the whole night’s inspection.

Early in the morning, the Crown Prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince all came to the imperial court together.

Naturally, Lord Zhou had been very infuriated as soon as he heard the whole thing that happened yesterday night.

At this time, both Long and Shi stayed in the fourth prince’s Palace.

They were sitting in the room and Long now was rubbing his chin with his hand, “I never thought that the virulence of that poison dispensed by Liu Suifeng could be so fierce and no one would find out.”

Shi nodded approvingly, “Yeah.”

Long came closer to him, and kissed him on the chin, then said, “But they never think the second Prince actually had a chance to survive if you weren’t in there.”

Shi looked at him and then smiled gently, “Yeah.”

How could the second Prince get poisoned?

It was very simple. First, in the plan, they had Shi Qingzhou to flick a small ball of special powder toward the second Prince. Then, it was the turn of the smoke shell.

To the people who weren’t tainted with the special powder, the smoke shell was just a harmless smoke shell. But to the one who had the special powder on him like the second Prince, it was totally different.

The gas released by the smoke ball immediately reacted with the powder tainted on his clothes and created one unique smell that could only be sensed by the second Prince.

But this was not enough to take his life.

The most deadly part was a tide of rage surged in his heart.

The provocative words written on the stone lion was a summons to death for the second Prince.

At the moment he saw the words, Rage bubbled just below the surface of his mind.

And immediately, like the ends of the ball of thread were drawn out, a chain reaction had worked inside his body and finally caused his death.

Therefore, it could say that the second Prince might get enough time waiting for the imperial doctors to come to the rescue.

However, his anger gave him a mortal blow.

one ring linked with another, and this was a series of stratagems designed by both Long and Shi.

And the plan officially began after Liu Suifeng gave them the poison.

In the plan, anyone would feel provoked and became furious.

Especially, the second Prince was born with a bad temper.

In fact, being opinionated and bad-tempered was something in common for all of the princes.

Moreover, it was supposed to be the showtime for the second Prince. But instead, he was provoked in public and became a clown. How could he not be angry?

Just, he didn’t think that he would lose his life because of his anger.

“The second Prince died and it’s time for us to take the next action.” Long said.

Shi nodded his head, “Let’s wait for Fang Shuoyang to come back first so that we can start perfectly justifiably.”

“You’re right. By the way, Qingzhou, do you think Lord Zhou will put Fang Shuoyang and the other princes on the spot in the imperial court?”

Shi shook his head slowly, “He won’t.”

“Em? Why?” Long was a bit confused, “Even Zhou Suye was involved in the whole matter, I don’t believe that Lord Zhou will just let them go without saying anything.”

“Sometimes, it makes sense that the law can not be enforced when everyone is an offender. Besides, if Lord Zhou wanted to do something, he would do it on the yesterday night.”

“Oh?” Long touched his chin, “Well, what will he do next?”

“You know. The thunder is big, the raindrop is small. However, the princes showed up yesterday night were neither his favorite nor his true inheritor. So he may make them dog-eat-dog... As for how he’s going to use this matter, I have no idea. We just can take measures according to the actual.”

Long blinked his eyes after he heard what Shi said, “Qingzhou... if you were him, what are you going to do?”

Shi’s eyes narrowed, “You want me to think as Lord Zhou?”

“Yes.” Long said smilingly, “If we put ourselves in the position of Lord Zhou and consider things like him, we can take a better precaution. Right?”

But Shi shook his head to reject his suggestion, “It’s not that easy you think... You’d better ask yourself if you really want to know the answer since you’re also an emperor. You must know him better than me.”

“Not exactly!” Long shook his head with disfavor, “I can’t guess it, Qingzhou. You have a smarter brain.” Shi raised his eyebrows and said slightly, “You’re too modest.”

“I’m not modest! I just tell the truth!” Long smiled, brazen-faced.

Shaking his head again, Shi didn’t say anything.

About two hours later, Fang Shuoyang came back.

Long and Shi followed him into the study.

“What’s going on in the imperial court?” Long asked at once.

Fang Shuoyang grinned with a smile, “Lord Zhou got very mad today and ordered the Ministry of Punishment to catch the assassin with the Dali Temple. Some of the officials who had been to the birthday party yesterday were rebuked harshly, but not because the second Prince was killed.”

“Oh? Not because of that?” Long was surprised, “then why were they rebuked?”

“Just to warn them.” Fang Shuoyang curled his lips.

“So Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple now begin to investigate?” Long continued to ask.

“Yes. They already initiated the investigation.” Fang Shuoyang nodded, “But no one knows whether they could find out the assassin or not.”

“They will find out the assassin.” Long said, with a meaningful look.

“Em?” Fang Shuorang raised his eyebrows confusingly.

Shi then slowly explained, “To an emperor, Lord Zhou’s son was murdered, and there will definitely be the one who’s responsible for it. As for whether the one is the real murderer or not, it doesn’t matter at all. Sometimes, they need a result more than truth. Therefore, they just need to find an unlucky guy in due course.”

“Em?” Fang Shuoyang was deep into thinking after hearing Long’s words, “I see...”

“Yeah.” Long smiled, “It’s just how it is. So you’d better keep yourself away and don’t find yourself troubles.”

With a wry smile, Fang Shuoyang said, “Got it.”

Looking at him, Long then continued to say, “Since you came back now, we can take advantage of this opportunity for the second prince to be killed and do something we should have done earlier justifiably.”

Fang Shuoyang was dazed for a second, but soon he understood Long’s meaning.

Long and Shi were going to expel the finger men that were sent by the others in his Palace clean.

Immediately, Fang Shuoyang nodded, “Alright. What should I do?”

“Just be furious.” Long smiled.

Therefore, this night, Fang Shuoyang smashed up all the cups in his study angrily. With a sneer came from the inside, Fang Shuoyang rebuked in a loud voice,

“Oh? It really surprised me a lot that there are so many people living in my Palace but doing nothing. Since you are all working for the others, you’d better get fucking out of my Palace right now, or I don’t mind let my guardians break your legs and throw you out!”

“Yes!”

Then, almost more than twenty people were thrown out of the Palace.

Some of them kept silent all the time while the others kept yelling ‘they were treated unjustly’.

Naturally, the speechless persons were directly thrown out.

Yet, the noisy persons finally got their arms broken before they were kicked out.

During the whole process, Long and Shi stayed together all the time.

Sometimes, Shi would help the guardians to deal with them, and Long would assist him.

In this way, they also solved ten persons.

Among the ten persons, two guys had good cultivation of Martial Arts and they also ran away. But in the end, they were still caught up by Shi and Ying Feng.

Actually, both Shi and Ying Feng could catch them alone.

But they still needed to hide their real power in the Palace, so they combined against a common enemy.

After all the finger men were ‘cleaned up’, Fang Shuoyang stood in the middle of the yard with a gloomy face, looking at the rest people.

“Remember! Here is my Palace. Anyone who doesn’t work for me, you’d better get out of here as soon as possible. And I just give you only one chance! The next time when I find it again, you will die!”Fang Shuoyang’s chilling voice echoed around and made the people trembled in fear.

At this time, Long and Shi were standing among them.

After the rest people left, Long and Shi also came back to the room.

“Fang Shuoyang an air of authority now.”

Shi Qingzhou glanced at him and said, “To be a prince, it’s enough, but to be an emperor, it is a bit short still.”

Long smiled slightly, “Take it easy. I believe that the people who were waiting and seeing now will begin to choose their side after this.”

Hearing what he said, Shi suddenly said, “What if they believe Lord Zhou still has a long time to live?”

“So what? They still need to choose one side in time. Otherwise, it will be late for them after everything has been settled. Besides, the coming months promise to be eventful since the second Prince died.”

Shi took a quick think and then nodded, “You’re right. Let’s just wait and see.”

“Em. Especially the Childe Suye, I really want to see his expression right now.” Long said smilingly.

Shi looked at him strangely, “Although the second Prince was his brother, they didn’t have any feelings. What kind of expression do you think he will show on his face?”

“Haha.” Long shook his head with a smile, “You’re wrong. Qingzhou... That Childe Suye has a great opinion of himself. In this case... will he be very scared after watching a person be killed right before him?”
