Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1275: Chapter 298: Su Yunjin: Husband, You’ve Finally Returned

”Prince, please, no need to see us off, no need to see us off!”

In the Longxing Prefecture, despite the sounds of battle drums shaking the sky, the cries of slaughter and shouting rising one after another, the harmonious atmosphere within the Ruyang Royal Mansion remained unaffected.

The Ruyang King looked at Yuan Sanjia and Master Kudu, who were about to leave, and said: ”Won’t you both stay a little longer?”

Yuan Sanjia replied: ”The matter is finished, and the Prince needs some time to restore stability in the city. We shall not linger here to disturb you.”

The Ruyang King said: ”Master Yuan, I am not convinced by today’s game of chess. If there is a chance, I would like to seek your advice again.”

Yuan Sanjia glanced at the Ruyang King and said: ”Prince, in light of your cooperation today, would you like me to give you a prognostication?”

The Ruyang King said: ”I would be grateful for your effort, Master.”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards Yuan Sanjia, for his trigrams were renowned, especially his life predictions, which seldom proved false. Receiving a prognostication from Yuan Sanjia was considered a great fortune.

Everyone watched Yuan Sanjia as he took out a turtle shell he carried with him.

He took out six Copper Coins, placed them into the turtle shell, rattled them~

He shook it three times and then spread his left hand, letting the Copper Coins fall onto it.

Six Divination, Yin Yang, Zhou Yi, divination.

At this moment, Yuan Sanjia touched the six Copper Coins, assessed their faces, and said: ”Above is Heaven, below is Marsh, this is the Tenth Trigram of Zhou Yi [Heaven and Marsh Trigram], depicting a journey across a marshland, where one may encounter danger if not careful.”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the Ruyang King, whose brows furrowed slightly without speaking.

Yet Yuan Sanjia continued: ”The trigram is destiny. Although it appears thus on the surface, when connected with the internal eight trigrams, the Prince will die at the hands of his own people.”

What!

Upon hearing this, the faces of those present became grim. Lord Wuxiang and Wang Baobao looked at the Ruyang King in shocked surprise.

Their faces showed fear, that the Prince would die by the hands of his own people, this...

However, the Ruyang King returned to normal and clasped his fists towards Yuan Sanjia, saying: ”Thank you, Master Yuan, for dispelling my doubts.”

With these words, a few people fell silent. Why was the Ruyang King so magnanimous? Yuan Sanjia chuckled, then turned and left the place.

Watching Yuan Sanjia depart, Wang Baobao asked: ”Godfather, what about this trigram?”

The Ruyang King laughed: ”Haha, this trigram is interesting indeed.”

”Godfather, Yuan Sanjia’s trigrams have never been wrong. Godfather, should we investigate our people to see who harbors disloyalty, to take early precautions?”

The Ruyang King said: ”Own people do not necessarily mean those of the Ruyang Royal Mansion. The court also counts as our own people. Hasn’t Tuotuo been discussing with Boluo Timur about summoning the regional Vassal Kings to reclaim military power?”

With these words.

Wang Baobao said: ”You mean, they want to?”

The Ruyang King said: ”Haha, what can they do even if they want to? As long as Li Siqi and I remain steadfast, it’s not yet Tuotuo and Boluo Timur’s turn to call the shots.”

Wang Baobao bowed his head silently, but after a long time said: ”What if the State Preceptor asks you to relinquish military power?”

The Ruyang King was silent for a moment but then said: ”The State Preceptor will not.”

Everyone fell silent.

”Prince, the Wu Mu’s Legacy was stolen by those Jianghu people. Will this affect us?”

Upon hearing this, the Ruyang King said: ”Haha, it’s good that it was stolen. This thing is useless to us because it’s fake.”

”But if these Jianghu people have stolen it from here, hahaha, then that’s great. The fake becomes real. Now there will be something interesting in the Jianghu. By the way, do you know who took the secret manual?”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Our people did not say who it was.”

The Prince said: ”Regardless of who it is, we need to put on a show. Get them to investigate thoroughly and then issue a Jianghu Kill Order from my Ruyang Royal Mansion, saying that my Ruyang Royal Mansion will offer ten thousand taels of gold as a reward for the Wu Mu’s Legacy. As long as someone can return the real Wu Mu’s Legacy to my Ruyang Royal Mansion, I shall give ten thousand taels of gold in gratitude.”

Upon hearing this, Lord Wuxiang said: ”No one would return the Wu Mu’s Legacy.”

The Ruyang King said: ”Of course, who would be foolish enough to return the Wu Mu’s Legacy? But as long as we issue the reward, everyone in the Jianghu will know that our mansion truly lost the Wu Mu’s Legacy.”

As for who took it, the Ruyang King laughed: ”It couldn’t be anyone but those few who entered the Ruyang Royal Mansion last.”

Upon hearing this, Lord Wuxiang said: ”Alright, Prince, I understand, let them kill each other.”

The Ruyang King said: ”Yuan Sanjia thought I was using the Wu Mu’s Legacy as bait to annihilate the enemy completely at the Military Department, but little did he know that my real plan was to let them all go free. Only when they are all set free will the Jianghu descend into chaos, hahahaha...”

The Ruyang King burst into laughter.

At this moment, Wang Baobao said: ”Godfather, you are wise. By the way, Godfather, what about Chen Jiusi, who fouled up our plans?”

The Ruyang King said: ”Hmph, I won’t let him off lightly.”

And so, the Longxing Prefecture City was chaotic all night, with countless Jianghu people captured.

Midway through, a Shadow Assassin returned, kneeling before the Ruyang King, saying: ”Prince, I, I failed. Please whip me, Prince!”

The Shadow Assassin knelt on the ground, handing a whip to the Ruyang King. She had failed to kill Han Miaozhen, and failure in her mission warranted punishment.

The Ruyang King looked at her and said: ”Lan, you have really disappointed me.”

”I’m sorry... I...”

Just as the Shadow Assassin was about to say something, someone outside said: ”Commandery Princess, you’re back.”
