Chapter 290: Chapter 288: Want to Leave?
He never understood why he ended up with such a fate, even until his death.
He was one of the rare Strategists among these barbarians.
Even in the barbarians’ Royal Court, he was to be esteed by the Khan as an honored guest.
But he had never imagined that he would et such an end.
If he had known earlier, he would not have followed the Second Prince here no matter what!
He had thought that after arriving here, he would at least live a carefree life for so ti.
After all, the Central Plains were much better than the barbarians’ land.
Especially the young maidens of the Central Plains; they were all so lusciously tender.
They were incomparable to those barbarian won.
Those big foreign mares had a certain… odor about them.
Even if one were to turn off the lights and pinch their nose, that pungent sll would instantly kill any pleasure.
But to his surprise, before he could enjoy himself fully, he t with such a demise.
With such thoughts in his mind, he fell unwillingly to the ground.
And thus, even when he fell headlong to the ground, his eyes remained open.
It was clear to see that he truly died with lingering regrets.
But obviously, no one was going to pay any attention to him.
At this ti, the Second Prince had already scrambled and ran into a room.
At the sa ti, those who had been with him also faced the second wave of Feathered Arrows!
With a swishing sound, followed by the thuds of arrows piercing flesh,
In the next mont, before they could react, they all fell to the ground as the arrows struck.
Seeing all the n in front of them shot down, the figures with their faces covered exchanged glances and nodded to each other, then they quickly retreated with a flash.
They showed no reluctance to leave nor any desire to pursue the leader; instead, they directly returned the way they ca.
Soon after they left, a group of barbarians wielding Scimitars hurried over to this side.
After all, this was an escort for the Second and the Young Prince together; naturally, the security couldn’t be taken lightly.
But considering this was within the Capital City, they dared not move too openly.
Especially with their weapons, they naturally didn’t dare to reveal them publicly.
Hence, within the mansion, they didn’t have too many people, just over twenty.
As for more manpower, as previously ntioned, they had been arranged outside the city.
But these twenty or so people were also scattered throughout the courtyard on guard.
After this incident took place, the Second Prince naturally had a ans to contact them.
This allowed them to swiftly gather and rush over.
However, when these n arrived at the scene, they were shocked to find no one there but a few corpses.
At this point, the Second Prince with manpower felt more confident.
Though still hiding behind others, he no longer needed to hide in the room, afraid to co out.
But upon seeing the scene before him, he was furious.
Especially when he saw that Master Lu had died right there and then, he beca enraged.
His eyes instantly turned blood red.
After all, Master Lu was not easily persuaded to join him as an Adviser!
But he had never expected him to be killed right here today.
For himself, this was a great loss.
And at this mont, he had already begun to loathe the Fourth Prince.
This treacherous old thing actually resorted to such sneaky attacks. It seed that their eting earlier was just to deceive him.
Their real trump card was what unfolded before his eyes.
“They probably wanted to confirm my identity alone, and once they knew I was here, they sought to kill to silence !
Master Lu did not deceive !”
These Han people were too cunning and deceitful; he should not stay here any longer.
With that thought, he imdiately signaled to his n to quickly pack up and leave the city.
After all, he still had a troop waiting outside the city.
Though not nurous, a few dozen n could at least ensure his safety.
As for the shops in the Capital City?
Ha, when life is at stake, one naturally cannot worry about these petty matters.
As for the Fourth Prince, he had already etched him in his heart, vowing to seek revenge sooner or later!
This old thing dared to deceive the Prince; this enmity was firmly noted.
One had to say, these barbarians moved very quickly.
Their important belongings were few, so they were soon ready to leave.
And their movents were of course noticed by the Shadow Guard.
Then quickly, they reported back to Lin Yi.
At this mont, Lin Yi had already left the Imperial Palace and entered a shop.
After all, the Imperial Palace was quite a distance from here, which was very inconvenient for ssage relay, and probably significant changes had occurred in the ti it took for a ssage to co through.
Therefore, when the barbarians were preparing to leave, Lin Yi also received the report from the Shadow Guard.
Yet faced with the Shadow Guard’s query, Lin Yi’s mouth curled slightly upwards, and he inquired to the Shadow Guard:
“Has the Fourth Prince made any moves?”
Upon hearing this question, the white-clad Shadow Guard imdiately saluted and said to Lin Yi:
“Reporting to the official, the Fourth Prince has been inford by our ssenger.
He threw a violent temper in his mansion, smashing many things.
anwhile, in his Prince Mansion, he is accumulating his Death Soldiers.
But as for the next steps, there is still no news yet.”
Lin Yi wasn’t at all surprised that this Fourth Prince Mansion had Death Soldiers in it.
In such societal tis with such high status, it would be strange not to have a few Death Soldiers at hand.
As to why he’s gathering them, Lin Yi of course had a clear idea.
After Lin Yi fanned the flas, the Fourth Prince must now be eager to finish off his opponent, he thought.
After all, the Fourth Prince wouldn’t tolerate such an affront.
If the Emperor got hold of this and wouldn’t let go, even if he wasn’t at fault, he would have no way to clear his na.
Escaping the situation would be very difficult.
By that ti, it would be fortunate if he could do so without losing skin.
He might even have to give up so of what he held in his hands.
… End of Chapter …
