Chapter 903: Chapter 837: Recruiting the Order of the Heroes!
“How is the Prince?”
Princess Consort Lin ngbai heard that the Prince suddenly fainted while discussing matters with his trusted aides, so she hurried over imdiately.
From a young age, Lin ngbai had a lofty dream.
In Sword South Path, the highest status belonged to King of Shu, Yang Ling.
Moreover, since marrying King of Shu Yang Ling, she had been greatly respected wherever she went, deeply satisfying Lin ngbai’s inner self.
This satisfaction was far beyond what the identity as a granddaughter of the Sect Master of Qing City Sword Sect could provide.
Therefore, all along, Lin ngbai had shown extraordinary concern and endless flattery towards King of Shu Yang Ling.
Even among the concubines around King of Shu Yang Ling, one-fifth were purchased with her own money.
The remaining three-fifths were bought using Yang Ling’s money, specifically to please Yang Ling.
So, when she heard that Yang Ling had fainted, she rushed over imdiately.
Although many in the mansion felt that King of Shu Yang Ling wasn’t always good to the Princess Consort, no one ever thought the Princess Consort was bad to King of Shu Yang Ling.
In fact, everyone thought the Princess Consort was exceptionally kind to the King of Shu.
At this mont, seeing the King of Shu lying on the bed, the anxious Princess Consort Lin charged in, imdiately asking the doctor, “How is the King of Shu? What exactly happened? He was fine this morning, but fainted when discussing with you in the afternoon. Did any of you upset the Prince?”
Everyone stared at each other.
Who upset the Prince, don’t you have any idea?
“What exactly happened, speak up! Are you all mute?”
Following Lin ngbai’s roar, finally a brave soul stood out.
“Princess Consort, it’s the news that just ca in. Qing City Sword Sect has announced its decision to join the Town Martial Office.”
Lin ngbai snorted disdainfully upon hearing this.
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I know my grandfather better than anyone. How could he let Qing City Sword Sect join the Town Martial Office? His lifelong dream was to spread the Sword Dao of Qing City Sword Sect, can the Town Martial Office actually extend Qing City Sword Sect’s lineage across Great Sui…”
Midway through her speech, Lin ngbai suddenly realized.
If Qing City Sword Sect truly joined the Town Martial Office, wouldn’t her grandfather’s dream be realized?
After all, Qing City Sword Sect’s swordsmanship would be established within the Town Martial Office.
And with the Town Martial Office spread across the land, Qing City Sword Sect’s three major core sword techniques would beco the core sword techniques of the Town Martial Office!
Realizing that the situation indeed seed rather unfavorable, Lin ngbai quickly turned to the doctor beside her and asked, “How is the Prince currently? I’ve already arranged for an ancient ginseng on the way over, make sure to nourish the Prince first.”
The doctor beside her awkwardly said, “Actually, there’s no major issue with the Prince. Despite being thirty years old this year, many of his bodily functions are very youthful, it’s just… just… just that his kidneys appear in a sowhat weakened state akin to a seventy-year-old.”
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”
Lin ngbai coldly snorted, sternly telling the doctor, “The Prince can stand firm for a fifth of an hour each ti, he’s quite mighty! How can his kidneys be failing!”
In that mont, the silence in the room was deafening.
Everyone wanted to say sothing, but upon reflection, it was better to let the Princess Consort remain in her naïve belief, it’s best for both the Prince and Princess Consort.
And just then, the King of Shu Yang Ling woke up on the bed.
Lin ngbai imdiately rushed over, looking anxiously at Yang Ling.
“Prince, are you feeling better?”
Yang Ling smiled and nodded, reassuring the Princess Consort.
“I’m feeling a bit better. It’s just… it’s just… Qing City Sword Sect seems to…”
Lin ngbai promptly reassured him, “Don’t worry, Prince, it must be Zhang San spreading false news to shake the military’s morale. Relax, Prince, I’ll send soone to deliver a ssage to Qing City Sword Sect right away, the truth will erge soon.”
With that, Lin ngbai rose, telling the doctor beside her, “Take good care of the Prince, stew that ancient ginseng for the Prince as well. If he needs nourishing, do it, don’t let the Prince suffer.”
After speaking, Lin ngbai turned and left the room to find soone to inquire about news from Qing City Sword Sect.
Despite Lin ngbai’s firm belief that her grandfather wouldn’t lead Qing City Sword Sect to join the Town Martial Office.
Lin ngbai knew deep down that her grandfather could indeed do such a thing.
Especially Qing City Sword Sect wasn’t very cohesive internally, so encountering resistance, eventually leading to full incorporation into the Town Martial Office wouldn’t be surprising.
Just then, a maid entered to report.
“Princess Consort, outside there’s soone claiming to be a disciple from Martial Marquis Manor, seeking you.”
Lin ngbai was taken aback because she never knew any disciple from Martial Marquis Manor.
Moreover, Martial Marquis Manor just announced joining the Town Martial Office.
But thinking it over, since both families joined the Town Martial Office, perhaps the visitor might know sothing.
“Ask that person to co in, I’ll be waiting in the side courtyard!”
Soon, Xiao Aotian was brought into the side courtyard.
“Xiao Aotian, an abandoned disciple from Martial Marquis Manor, greets Princess Consort Lin.”
Lin ngbai glanced at Xiao Aotian, he looked quite robust and energetic, appearing to have so skill.
“An abandoned disciple? What’s the matter?”
Xiao Aotian imdiately knelt, recounting the entire incident at Martial Marquis Manor to Lin ngbai.
Lin ngbai was astonished to hear Xiao Aotian’s account.
“What!? Zhang San actually used you and your elder sister to threaten the Old Manor Master Zhuge?”
“What!? Zhang San’s sworn brother actually coveted your elder sister’s beauty, forced her to marry him? And your elder sister actually sacrificed herself for Martial Marquis Manor. This… this… is so moving…”
Lin ngbai was sowhat touched by Xiao Aotian’s tale.
But ultimately, through Xiao Aotian’s confirmation, Qing City Sword Sect indeed announced joining the Town Martial Office, it wasn’t fake news spread by Zhang San, it was undeniably true.
Lin ngbai had initially harbored a sliver of hope for Qing City Sword Sect.
Now even that final sliver of hope was extinguished.
“Then why have you co to see ? Just to lant your tragic experience?”
Xiao Aotian promptly explained, “Princess Consort Lin, it turns out that Zhang San is our common enemy! Don’t you want to deal with him?”
Lin ngbai thought about it, indeed she felt so.
For herself, if King of Shu Yang Ling succeeded in rebellion, she would beco the Empress, reigning over the land, wouldn’t it be even better?
And Zhang San is here to suppress the rebellion.
When reckoned, Zhang San is her greatest enemy.
“You are a disciple from Martial Marquis Manor, so you must know many martial artists from Sword South Path, right?”
Xiao Aotian realized that Princess Consort Lin had a plan.
But he also knew the people he knew were all from Martial Marquis Manor, now Martial Marquis Manor hadn’t killed him, considering his master’s sake, had only expelled him from the sect, it was already quite gracious.
Yet Xiao Aotian still promptly agreed, “Yes.”
“Alright, I’ll draft a recruitnt Order of the Heroes, you’ll find a way to distribute it, let the talents of Sword South Path see it, then join my Lin ngbai’s forces, together we’ll deal with this great villain Zhang San!”
Although Xiao Aotian didn’t know many people, isn’t distributing flyers not a difficult task!
“Rest assured, Princess Consort Lin, Xiao Aotian will go to any lengths!”
