Ninth Prince, proposing to make Murong Fei an Imperial Concubine?
When the Ninth Prince suggested this, Su Xinlie and Duan Xiaodao, who were beside him, both had a change in expression.
However, Su Xinlie's shock was tinged with delight, while Duan Xiaodao's shock was purely shock.
"Your Highness, if this is the case, this ti, we should resolve the great threat that is Qin Tian!"
Su Xinlie laughed, "In this way, Qin Tian would either have to give up his woman or confront us head-on. And since we are proposing to marry Murong Fei on behalf of the Royal Family, what else can he do against us?"
"Your Highness, this move might compel Qin Tian to act desperately. Please reconsider!"
Duan Xiaodao voiced an opinion completely different from Su Xinlie's, causing both the Ninth Prince and Su Xinlie to be taken aback.
The Ninth Prince turned to look at Duan Xiaodao, frowning slightly, and said, "Act desperately? Would I, Your Highness, fear Qin Tian acting desperately? Hmph, I want him to act desperately!"
The Ninth Prince's eyes carried suspicion as he looked at Duan Xiaodao, angrily stating, "At this mont, Qin Tian has no way out; hmph, can he still remain in the Imperial City?"
Before Duan Xiaodao could speak, the Ninth Prince waved his hand impatiently, saying, "The matter is settled, no need to discuss it further, you may leave!"
Duan Xiaodao was montarily stunned. He could see that the Ninth Prince was already sowhat angry, and he imdiately bowed and withdrew silently.
As he retreated, Duan Xiaodao noticed the suspicious look in the eyes of both the Ninth Prince and Su Xinlie, making him regret his rashness earlier. Could it be that they already doubted him?
Regardless of whether they suspected him or not, Duan Xiaodao knew in his heart that if the Ninth Prince were really to propose in person to the Murong Family and they couldn't refuse, Murong Fei would be in a difficult position, and Qin Tian would be forced to act.
After returning to his residence, Duan Xiaodao was restless and couldn't calm his thoughts. When deep into the night, he quietly disguised himself and sneaked out to the vicinity of Qin Tian's residence.
Duan Xiaodao previously agreed upon a unique contact signal with Qin Tian. Upon reaching the vicinity of the Qin residence, he slowly sent out a wave of True Qi towards the residence. Before long, Qin Tian erged from the gate.
At this ti, Duan Xiaodao did not imdiately make contact with Qin Tian. They both knew very well that, in the Imperial City, spies were always lurking in the shadows around Qin Tian's residence, observing everyone's movents.
After Qin Tian left the residence, he quickened his pace, using his speed and agility to shake off the spies following him in the shadows. He then circled back to rendezvous with Duan Xiaodao.
"Is it urgent, this late at night?"
Seeing Duan Xiaodao's troubled expression, Qin Tian already had a bad premonition in his heart.
Duan Xiaodao gazed sternly at Qin Tian, speaking with utmost seriousness, "Boss, the Ninth Prince has decided to propose to Sister-in-law Murong directly. From his deanor, action will take place in the next few days..."
Swoosh!
As soon as Duan Xiaodao spoke, Qin Tian's expression instantly changed, his eyes flashed with anger, "He, does he intend to ddle in my private affairs?!"
Duan Xiaodao didn't speak. After a brief mont of shock, Qin Tian quickly understood that this was a new dilemma posed by the Ninth Prince to catch him off guard and strike hard!
So vicious!
Qin Tian pressed his lips together, taking a deep breath, "If the Ninth Prince acts imdiately, this indeed becos a thorny problem..."
Duan Xiaodao comnted, "I tried to dissuade him, but the Ninth Prince and Su Xinlie seem quite satisfied with this decision, so I suspect they will act soon."
"Boss, I've thought it over carefully before coming. Currently, all our forces are in West State, leaving you alone in the Imperial City. If you confront the Ninth Prince head-on over Sister-in-law's matter, we have no chance of winning here!"
Duan Xiaodao's words tightened the feeling in Qin Tian's heart, sothing he had already considered.
"So, the only option I can think of is for you to quickly find Sister-in-law and the two of you to quietly escape the Imperial City within the next day or two. This way, the Ninth Prince's sinister plan will fail by itself."
Duan Xiaodao's idea is sothing Qin Tian had also considered in an instant.
However, easier said than done, given the current situation with Qin Tian's rocky relationship with Murong Tiannan. How could he escape the city with Murong Fei?
Moreover, it was clear that the Murong Family was already beginning to lean towards the Ninth Prince's side. If Qin Tian leaves with Murong Fei now and the Ninth Prince flies into a rage, the Murong Family would certainly suffer!
If sothing happens to the Murong Family, won't Murong Fei be heartbroken...
"I cannot allow Fei'er's situation to reenact within the Murong Family."
Thinking of the past, when Liu Fei'er's father and brother were killed and her family destroyed, a pang of heartache stabbed through Qin Tian.
His woman must be protected!
"Let
think about it. If I escape the Imperial City, the Murong Family would be dood..." Qin Tian shook his head.
Duan Xiaodao anxiously said, "But, Boss, if you're still worrying about the Murong Family's safety at this point, we're all finished!"
Seeing Qin Tian hesitate, Duan Xiaodao quickly added, "Boss, just take Sister-in-law away first. As for the Murong Family, I'll try to diate and prevent any major issues. Consider that the Ninth Prince is still in need of talents, and Mister Murong Tiannan is one of the four Great Generals. As long as you leave with Sister-in-law before the Ninth Prince officially proposes, the Murong Family isn't at fault. The Ninth Prince certainly won't bla the Murong Family for this, and the court ministers wouldn't approve either."
"I did overlook this. Indeed, as long as I take Murong away before the Ninth Prince proposes, the Murong Family's safety should be assured."
Imdiately, Qin Tian cald down, and after discussing with Duan Xiaodao, they decided to act without delay.
After seeing Duan Xiaodao off, Qin Tian returned to his residence, pondered deeply, and before dawn on the next day, quietly approached the Murong Mansion to call out Murong Ao.
"Lord Qin, this early, what brings you to ?"
Murong Ao arrived at the gate, smiling cheerfully at Qin Tian, and asked.
At this mont, Qin Tian was in no mood to smile. He stared at Murong Ao and said, "I'll disguise myself, then you take
into the Murong Mansion."
"Ah? Lord Qin, my uncle recently despises you fiercely, and you wish to enter the Murong Mansion? You..."
"No more nonsense, you must take
inside today, I have urgent matters!"
"Is it about Murong Fei? If there's anything, I can relay the ssage; no need for you to personally barge in..."
Murong Ao didn't finish his sentence before seeing Qin Tian glaring at him coldly. Knowing Qin Tian's temper, he quickly shut up: "Alright, I'll do as you say, Lord Qin. I'll wait here for you."
After disguising himself in a hidden spot, Qin Tian erged only to find a guard in a yellow vest stationed at the gate, his expression instantly changed—
This guard appeared to be the Ninth Prince's personal guard!
