Villain: I Can See Destiny

28: Chapter 28 Mingyue is willing to marry Young Master XiaoImperial Capital, Fengyun District.

This place is heavily guarded and serves as a retreat for some of the big figures in the Imperial Capital.

However, as the most outstanding member of the Dantai Princes Mansion of this generation, Dantai Mingyue naturally has the qualifications to enter this place.

One of the beautiful sights in the Fengyun District is Autumn Water Lake.

The lake water is reflected deep blue by the sky, set against several green mountains at varying distances, just like a sapphire dropped into green silk.

At this moment, Young Master Xiao Zimo is fishing by the side of Autumn Water Lake.

He is lying on a recliner with his legs crossed, wearing homemade sunglasses, holding a fishing rod in his left hand and the heavenly dao token of the Heavenly Dao Academy in his right.

Although in this Xuanhuan world, fishing doesn’t need to be so troublesome, life still requires a sense of ritual.

Young Master Xiao Zimo’s Divine Sense is quickly browsing the information inside the heavenly dao token, just like scrolling through Douyin in his previous life.

The heavenly dao token is a Sacred Artifact; ordinary information exchange, task bounties, and the like can all be accomplished through it.

And this is just a small part of its many functions.

It is also a defensive Sacred Artifact; it is rumored that when all the heavenly dao tokens release their defensive power simultaneously, they can block a strike from an Immortal.

What Young Master Xiao Zimo likes most is the information exchange function of the heavenly dao token. Although the Xiao Clan Young Lord token also has this function, the latter is too rigid and serious, dealing only with major matters.

The former, however, appears much more open. What Young Master Xiao Zimo likes most are the various ”beauty rankings” compiled by his academy friends.

There are Fairies, demonesses, mature women, and lolis; the realistic images make one feel as if they are there, as if the person is standing right in front of them.

Although Young Master Xiao Zimo does not lack beautiful women, he still likes to look at various beauties, which can be considered one of his little secrets.

After all, this does not match his persona outside; if discovered, it would truly be a social death.

Meanwhile, led by guards, Dantai Mingyue soon arrived at the location of Young Master Xiao Zimo.

She looked up and saw a white figure standing with his hands behind his back, gazing at the lake surface.

The other party seemed to sense her arrival and smiled slightly at her.

Then, he arrived in an instant, as if he had appeared out of thin air in front of her.

”Is Miss Dantai here to find me?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo asked gently.

Seeing Young Master Xiao Zimo appear before her, Dantai Mingyue bowed gracefully to him: ”Greetings, Young Master Xiao.”

Then she said: ”Mingyue does indeed have a request.”

Young Master Xiao Zimo nodded slightly, looking a bit surprised.

Dantai Mingyue directly stated her purpose.

”Mingyue has come this time to request Young Master Xiao to persuade Your Majesty to execute Luo Cang and return a bright and clear sky to the Imperial Capital!”

When speaking these words, Dantai Mingyue was also very pained.

Her former good friend would be sent to Hell by her own hands.

Young Master Xiao Zimo said indifferently: ”The Luo Cang you speak of, is he the Inspection Bureau commander who has been in the spotlight recently?”

Dantai Mingyue nodded.

”I remember, isn’t he your close friend? At the banquet that day, didn’t you two have a pleasant chat?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo asked, pretending to be curious.

A flash of pain crossed Dantai Mingyue’s eyes: ”He has changed, he has become insane, and will stop at nothing for power. I hope Young Master Xiao can help me persuade Your Majesty.”

”I can indeed persuade Brother Lin, but this Luo Cang is currently Brother Lin’s trusted aide. Why should I help you?”

Young Master Xiao Zimo restrained his expression and said coldly.

Dantai Mingyue hesitated slightly, her face showing shyness: ”Mingyue is willing to marry Young Master Xiao and serve by your side from now on.”

Looking at the shy Dantai Mingyue, Young Master Xiao Zimo sneered inwardly: ”Marry me? Don’t even look at your own status and position; does a piece of trash like you deserve it?”

If Dantai Mingyue didn’t have a lover, he wouldn’t mind having a fleeting romance with her.

However, on the surface, he feigned a sigh: ”I thought this Luo Cang was a hero, but I didn’t expect him to be blinded by power.”

”Since that is the case, I will help with this, but you must follow my arrangements...”

...

Lin Zong, commander of the Lin Family Army, led many mansion guards to the front of the Inspection Bureau.

The usually arrogant inspectors lowered their proud heads at this moment.

They could be arrogant to others, but they dared not be rude to the Lin Family Army. In a few days, when the new Emperor ascends the throne, they would be the Emperor’s personal guards.

Lin Zong didn’t even look at the people of the Inspection Bureau and led the group straight into the main residence of the Inspection Bureau.

The Inspection Bureau was just a mad dog raised by the Emperor; he didn’t take it seriously.

And this scene was also seen by many forces paying attention to Luo Cang.

For a time, rumors spread throughout the Imperial Capital...

Inside the main residence of the Inspection Bureau, Luo Cang was studying which forces still needed to be dealt with after Emperor Lin Shu ascended the throne.

Hearing the commotion outside the mansion, he frowned slightly.

Hadn’t he said that he should be kept quiet while he was working?

Just as Luo Cang was about to get up and go out, he saw Lin Zong leading the Lin Family mansion guards breaking into the residence.

Looking at Lin Zong’s sneer, a bad premonition arose in his heart.

Luo Cang said in a deep voice: ”I am the commander of the Inspection Bureau, a third-rank official. I don’t know why you are breaking into my Inspection Bureau?”

Lin Zong mocked and said indifferently: ”Your Majesty has an edict: Inspection Bureau commander Luo Cang has abused his power and harmed loyal subjects. His crimes deserve death.”

After speaking, he waved his hand, signaling the mansion guards to take him down: ”Take him to the Heavenly Prison and wait for execution.”

Luo Cang’s face turned pale, and he looked incredulous.

How is this possible?

He had been working wholeheartedly for Emperor Lin Shu these days, doing all kinds of dirty work, and his performance was seamless.

Although he had thought about whether Emperor Lin Shu would abandon him one day because of his bad reputation.

But such a thought only flashed by, because he was Young Master Xiao Zimo’s man!

And Emperor Lin Shu was just a dog by Young Master Xiao Zimo’s side; how could he dare to touch him?

”C-could it be that Young Master Xiao Zimo gave the order?”

Luo Cang was startled by the thought that popped up in his mind.

It’s impossible; he shouldn’t have revealed any flaws.

All thoughts occurred in an instant; at this moment, he had already been detained by the Lin Family mansion guards.

Luo Cang did not resist; he knew that if Young Master Xiao Zimo really wanted to kill him, he would be dead no matter where he ran.

The moment Luo Cang was taken out of the Inspection Bureau, the news swept through the entire Imperial Capital like a prairie fire.

After everyone learned that Luo Cang had been thrown into prison, it was a celebration for all.

From aristocratic families down to ordinary commoners, everyone was filled with joy.

There were even outrageous rumors that the new Emperor was a wise ruler, even though the order was given by Emperor Lin Shu and Luo Cang was just an executor.

This shows how much the world hated Luo Cang.

...

Meanwhile, at the Luo Residence.

Unlike the celebration outside, a sense of sadness permeated the Luo Residence.

Although Luo Cang’s methods were unpopular, he was also single-mindedly for the Luo Residence.

When the old master fell from power before, they saw and remembered how Luo Cang was anxious, couldn’t eat or sleep, with a worried face, running around to find connections.

Luo Qing was crying even more miserably; although Luo Cang had committed an unforgivable mistake, that was, after all, her brother who was like a father to her!

Minister Luo Liang also had tears in his old eyes; he couldn’t understand why his previously upright and kind son had become this kind of person that everyone shouted to beat.
