The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 837 - Brothers II



Zhao Yi Chen was used to hearing Zhao Li Xin's sharp reply, he even felt a bit refreshed because lately he only heard people praising him and fawned him relentlessly after he became Emperor and it only made him feel bored and tired.

"Did you know Ying Xi Lu was dead?" Zhao Yi Chen suddenly broke the news.

Zhao Li Xin raised his brows for a second before his face became normal again, "Is that so?" Zhao Li Xin replied indifferently, he didn't look happy, relieved, or sad, just a straight blank look.

The truth was that Zhao Li Xin had long forgotten about Ying Xi Lu and he had not paid much attention to the matters of the Jiang Wei kingdom ever since Zhao Yi Chen became emperor.

Look at how calm Zhao Li Xin is. Zhao Yi Chen felt a little bitter, if only they treated Zhao Li Xin a little better maybe Zhao Li Xin wouldn't have withdrawn from trouble in the Jiang Wei Kingdom, Zhao Yi Chen had heard that Zhao Li Xin had given his support to the Liang Zu Kingdom and  After that, the situation in the Liang Zu kingdom changed for the better in a short time even though the kingdom was in a much worse situation compared to the Jiang Wei kingdom due to the emperor's scandal, corruption, murderer and so much more.

Of course, it was also because of Empress Ming's ability and the support of the three major clan families that she was able to suppress the influential Liang Zu noble family, but without the support of Zhao Li Xin and Hei Shen sect, the empress would not be able to control the situation in the kingdom in a short time without any significant resistance from the old and conservative officials.

Compared to how Zhao Li Xin treated the Jiang Wei kingdom with the Liang Zu kingdom is like heaven and earth, but he couldn't blame Zhao Li Xin it was good enough Zhao Li Xin didn't destroy the entire Jiang Wei kingdom and killed everyone in the palace after what they did to him in the past.

people say there's no medicine for regret and that' so true.

"Ying Xi Lu was infected with a strange disease and died not long after, immediately after the funeral Zhao Qin Feng left Nan Jing city and I didn't get any news ever since as if he disappear into a thin air" Zhao Yi Chen's expression turned grim.

"Maybe he returned to the Ying clan, have you checked there?" Zhao Li Xin asked.

"Of course, I did and that's when I got even more strange news" Zhao Yi Chen's voice became even more intense, "The entire family in the Ying clan suddenly had a serious mental illness, they hurt each other and attacked each other like a crazy beast. The situation got so bad that they were sent to a place to recuperate and since then I lose their trace just like Zhao Qin Feng." Zhao Yi Chen drew a long breath as his face turn bleak "Let me tell you, brother…I feel something awful crawl on my skin and it slowly penetrated my bones right to my heart"

Zhao Li Xin looked down at his empty cup, slowly but surely Lazarus had plunged its claws all over the world, soon there would be no safe place for everyone, "Zhao Qin Feng is cooperating with that Lao woman..."

"Lao Min Na?" Zhao Yi Chen was stunned, it was the name he was once held so dear and now become so distant and foreign. Never in million years, he would have thought that his relationship with the beautiful girl that he loved for the first time will turn out this way.

"Zhao Qin Feng met Yang Qiong Yan in the Liu Yan kingdom, Marquis Yang turned out to be a subordinate of Lao Min Na with her help Yang Qiong Yang was awarded the title of Marquis from Emperor Liu Yan and with his new title, he helped Lao Min Na to expand Lao Min Na influence in the Liu Yan kingdom," Zhao Li Xin explains as he poured himself a cup of wine and Zhao Yi Chen listened attentively.

"Then Yang Qiong Yang tried to approach Yuan Shao and Zhao Qin Feng to cooperate with him and it was a brilliant idea, Lao Min Na wanted to make Zhao Qin Feng the new emperor of the Jiang Wei kingdom and if you die as planned then the plan will go smoothly." Zhao Li Xin took a sip of his wine while Zhao Yi Chen tightened his jaw as he try to contain his anger.

"Lao Min Na then wanted to support Yuan Shao to overthrow Emperor Liu Yan because she knew the grudge between emperor Liu Yan and Yuan Shao, she wanted to use Yuan Shao to conquer Liu Yan Yan's kingdom and make him as an Emperor or at least someone who is as powerful as the Emperor and if it succeeded then the two powerful man from two great nations would owe her, and think about how much advantage Lao Min Na will get later, luckily she failed…" Zhao Li Xin explained frankly without sugarcoating his words.

"Because you saved me and I know you accepted little sister Yuan Shao as a member of the Hei Shen sect." Zhao Yi Chen clenched his fists, he didn't expect how meticulous Lao Min Na plan was, how big her appetite it seems he doesn't know her at all.

"Yes…" Zhao Li Xin raised his cup and drink his wine.

Even though their people exchanged information from time to time, Zhao Li Xin seemed to be hiding some important information from him, "I heard about the existence of a strange-looking beast, according to the news it doesn't look like any animal I've ever seen before, unlike any beast I've ever seen before. other beasts, this beast is more vicious, extremely brutal, and can't feel any pain even if someone cuts off the beast's limbs, it will attack mercilessly as long as it can move… and you're saying that the beast has something to do with Lao Min Na?"

"Yes, in fact, she's the one who breeds the beast, we call it a hybrid beast because it is created by combining several beast cores to create a new type of beast" Zhao Li Xin explained.

"That's impossible!" Zhao Yi Chen suddenly smacked his fist against the table, "I heard rumors about beast cores but eating other beast cores can't possibly increase the strength of the other beast that eating the other Beast core if that can happen then everyone should know about this, Do you think because Lao Min Na was smart she miraculously came up with a method to manipulate beast cores?" Zhao Yi Chen sneered in disbelieve.

"What if she got help…." Zhao Li Xin 

Zhao Yi Chen jerked his head upwards, "Someone helped her?" he was taken aback.

"Not who but what?" Zhao Li Xin's dark eyes are gradually darker like a deep abyss, hatred, can't be clearer.

"Have you never wondered how a woman who spent her entire life inside a boudoir gained so much knowledge about alchemy, how could she who had never provided any education, training, or care all of her life suddenly rose to become the most talented alchemist and powerful cultivator?"

Zhao Yi Chen frowned, "Isn't that the same as you?" he retort, Zhao Yi Chen thought Zhao Li Xin and Lao Min Na were almost the same, everyone thought Zhao Li Xin was a man who just waiting to die but out of nowhere he became the most powerful figure in the world, maybe Lao Min Na was the same as Zhao Li Xin, so Zhao Yi Chen never thinks about it deeply.

"Fools!" Zhao Li Xin sneered, "I barely lived in the Imperial Palace because my dear mother and father the emperor sent me to the monastery to be left to die, there were years in my life that no one paid any attention to me because they wished I would just die quietly but not the same as that woman"

Zhao Yi Chen was silent, he also investigated Lao Min Na's situation in Lao manor when he decided to marry her from there he found out that Lao Min Na was abused and locked in a dilapidated courtyard in Lao Manor, out of jealousy Madam Lao never gave any further education besides basic reading and writing, she was worried that because Lao Min Na was very beautiful she would take the limelight from Lao Fei Yan beside and Madam Lao was also afraid that Lao Min Na would become difficult to control if Lao Min Na became too smart, that's why Lao Min Na was not given the opportunity to develop herself and she was confined in her own courtyard.

Therefore where did he get his knowledge from, when did he have the time, and if he is as smart as he is now why is her reputation so bad at that time, why are there unscrupulous rumors about her and Zhao Mu Fan, is it just Zhao Mu Fan's lies or something else that he doesn't know, in his opinion the Lao Min Na he knows is too smart and too cunning to fall for Zhao Mu Fan and Lao Fei Yan's cheap trick so what happened?

"The more you think about it, the more confused it becomes, right?" Zhao Li Xin laughed as he took a sip of his wine.

"You said she got help by….what?" Zhao Yi Chen cockled his head unsure what Zhao Li Xin mean was.

"You said he got help from....what?" Zhao Yi Chen tilted his head unsure what Zhao Li Xin meant.
