Chapter 1757: Obstacles!

Translator: Lonelytree

The Royal Palace of the Black Clouds Kingdom

In the royal study, Xiao Jingrui, dressed in a yellow dragon robe, was reading memorials. Suddenly, a man in black appeared in front of him.

Xiao Jingrui didn’t even look up. He took the brush and kept drawing on the memorial. He coldly spat out a word,” Speak!”

“Your Majesty, the first plan has failed!” The man in black reported to Xiao Jingrui.

Xiao Jingrui’s face suddenly darkened, and he coldly spat out two words,”

Continue!”

The man in black lowered his head and said,” Your Majesty, a secret agent has reported that Zhou Wenya’s identity has been exposed. However, when she heard about the marriage between Princess Lin Yuelan of the Guguo of the Longyan Dynasty and the Defender General Jiang Zhennan, she went crazy with anger and is now locked in the imperial prison by the Longyan Dynasty’s Emperor…”

After Xiao Jingrui heard about the marriage between Lin Yuelan and Jiang

Zhennan, a fierce light suddenly flashed in his eyes. He put down his pen, raised his head, and looked at the black- shirted man with a cold and stern expression. He asked,” You mean Zhou Wenya went mad when she heard about their marriage?”

The man in black replied,” Yes!”

“Why?” He had seen Zhou Wenya before and knew her very well. She definitely wouldn’t go crazy from anger when she heard that they were getting married.

Although he wasn’t in the imperial city of the Longyan Dynasty, he had sent countless spies into the city. He knew every move of the capital like the back of his hand.

He was the first to receive the news that Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were getting married.

Therefore, he immediately felt that the opportunity had arrived and immediately deployed all his plans.

His main goal was to get rid of Jiang Zhennan.

Hearing the report from his subordinate, Xiao Jingrui’s eyebrows moved slightly. He was satisfied and puzzled,” Could it be that Yuwen Longyan, the old emperor, really trusts the two of them?”

Most of the time, the reason why emperors were heartless was that the person who became an emperor would become suspicious and have all kinds of suspicions towards others, whether it was his wife, children or subjects.

He had investigated Yuwen Longyan before and knew him very well. Of course, he knew that Yuwen Longyan, the emperor, was suspicious.

Therefore, he didn’t care how much Yuwen Longyan doted on Jiang Zhennan. After all, if it involved the throne under his butt, would he continue to trust him?

Therefore, this was his first plan: to sow discord.

They would make use of their marriage and use public opinion to frame the two of them. Then, they would use the mining of the two mines as evidence to further destroy them.

He wanted to see how the old emperor Yuwen Longyan trusted them then.

However, the information that the scout reported surprised him greatly, but it also seemed to be within his expectations. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had a second plan.

However…

Xiao Jingrui frowned slightly and asked with some doubt,” Zhou Wenya went mad?! Why?”

The moment Zhou Wenya’s identity was exposed, she was no longer of any value.

When those schemes were exposed, if she could escape, it was because she had the ability. If she couldn’t escape, it was her fate.

In any case, her exposure would not affect the next step of his plan.

But why did she suddenly go crazy?

The man in black reported,” Master, according to the secret agents, Zhou Wenya became a lunatic because she heard that the Longyan Dynasty’s Defender General married their Princess Gu as a live-in husband…

“What?” After Xiao Jingrui heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn’t believe it. He said sternly,” Tell me again, what happened?”

The man in black was stunned for a moment. After a moment, when he reacted, he immediately reported carefully,” The Emperor of Longyan Country has announced to the whole country that the Defender General Jiang Zhennan will be married to Princess Lin Yuelan of Guguo on the sixth day of the ninth month of the autumn. The whole country is celebrating. For this reason, the farmers will be exempted from taxes for a year…”

The black-robed man lowered his head and reported carefully. However, he was very afraid in his heart. His Majesty, who was as gloomy as a storm, was the most terrifying. He could kill people invisibly, no matter who they were.

In the two years since Xiao Jingrui ascended the throne, although he had received the secret support of many ministers in the court, it was still full of blood and brutality..
