Chapter 249: Wangye, paying more attention to a lover than friends

Once the Emperor learned the hidden valley in Southern Country, his face will inevitably change, but now is not the time…

Not to mention, Xiao Tianyao’s men haven’t started yet. But even if they did, the news will not reach the east quickly. The Emperor must wait for a while before he learns this thing.

During lunch, there was this deepening silence. However, Xiao Tianyao didn’t show any fear or uneasiness in front of the Emperor. After he ate, regardless the Emperor was still eating or not, Xiao Tianyao put down his chopsticks, got up and left. Completely ignoring the Emperor’s face.

The Emperor almost burst into anger, but he remembered he just asked Xiao Tianyao to stop his actions. So this time, he will not cause trouble to Xiao Tianyao, he will hold back his anger.

After the meal was finished, the Emperor no longer want to see Xiao Tianyao’s face again. He sent him out in the palace.

“This younger brother will retire.” Xiao Tianyao said and turned, then went outside.

But, as soon as he came out of the imperial hall, he saw the Minister of War Official rushing in. When the Minister of War Official was about to bump him, Xiao Tianyao tiptoed and lightly avoided.

When the Ministry of War Official almost bumps Xiao Tianyao, he wanted to open his mouth to apologize. But, he didn’t stop and continued rushing inside the imperial hall.

Right now, there was a more important issue than apologizing.

Xiao Tianyao didn’t get angry, instead, his lips curved into a smile.

He didn’t expect that those people will do it soon. The Emperor’s face must have changed drastically!

*Bang*

The Emperor slammed the table and stood up: “What did you say? Our grains were robbed? And there was no left behind?”

“Yes, yes.” The Ministry of War Official, who was kneeling on the ground, was about to cry.

It was a big disaster.

“Who on earth has the gall to rob the imperial court’s grains?” The Emperor clenched his hand into a fist. As his face become blue. Obviously, he was angry.

“It was the Ghost Mountain Bandits. They got our route of transport and ambush us. Then, they robbed all of our grains.” Under the great pressure of the Emperor, the Ministry of War Official almost faint. But because his blood circulation was good, he couldn’t faint at all.

“Ghosts Mountain Bandits? They have great courage.” Hearing the words bandits, the Emperor’s face become more unsightly.

He has repeatedly sent troops to encircle these bandits in the Ghost Mountain, but he never succeeds even once. The Ghost Mountain was very easy to encircled but hard to attack. The most important thing was, the Ghost Mountain lived up to its name. Troops that walked in there, seems like had walked over to a ghost wall, and never came out again.

“Huangshang, huangshang… …” The Ministry of War Official, who was still kneeling on the ground was so scared. His body was trembling with fear. But he still dared to say: “The front line was now in a tight position. We need to arrange another group of people to transport food.” They were short on foods, but it was not easy to transport grains.

“Transport grains again? Can you promise this time that it will not be robbed by the Ghost Mountain Bandits again?” The Emperor was almost certain that the Ghost Mountain Bandits will rob the imperial court’s grains again and Xiao Tianyao will fail to get rid of them.

Divine Doctor Mo conspired with the sects to robbed Xiao Tianyao’s grains and medicines. Right now, the grains of the imperial court was robbed by the Ghost Mountain Bandits. So if anyone will say that this was not Xiao Tianyao’s doing, the Emperor will not believe in it.

“This, this… … shouldn’t we send Xiao Wangye to eradicate the bandits?” The Ministry of War Official’s eyes flashed, and he remembered seeing Xiao Tianyao a bit earlier, so he busily said.

The Emperor was furious: “Stupid!” He doesn’t want Xiao Tianyao to have military power again. But this stupid official wanted to let Xiao Tianyao go.

If they will destroy the bandits, they must send out soldiers. Xiao Tianyao will have military power again by then. But after that, can he take it back again?

“This…official is stupid, this official asks huangshang’s forgiveness.” The Ministry of War Official pleaded for mercy, but the Emperor didn’t pay attention to him. The Emperor let his eunuch call the left and right prime ministers, Ministry of Revenue Official, Control Yuan into the palace to discuss the issue.

Xiao Tianyao looked at the guards who were rushing outside the palace. His lips were smiling, but this smile didn’t reach his eyes.

He will make the emperor pay his accounts one by one.

Back in Xiao Wangfu, the first thing Xiao Tianyao asked was: “Did Wangfei looked for benwang?” After a night, that stupid woman should finally understand the effect of the cold fruit.

If she didn’t come to thank him, he will choke her to death!

“Yes, Wangfei came and looked for Wangye. But when Wangfei learned Wangye was in the palace, Wangfei went to the injured guards.” Housekeeper Cao quickly followed behind Xiao Tianyao and reported Lin Chujiu’s movements one by one.

Seeing that Xiao Tianyao was still expressionless, Housekeeper Cao, who was uncertain about Xiao Tianyao’s thought, boldly ask: “Wangye, do you want this old slave to ask Wangfei to come over?”

Housekeeper Cao wanted to please Xiao Tianyao, but he didn’t expect he will refused: “No need.” He will wait for that stupid woman to come and find him herself.

Su Cha has long been waiting for Xiao Tianyao in the study room. So when he heard footsteps outside, he took the initiative to open the door, because he knew it was Xiao Tianyao.

Xiao Tianyao came inside. Housekeeper Cao knew they will discuss something important, so he busily left.

Su Cha closed the door and looked at Xiao Tianyao, who was sitting at the back of the desk. With a solemn looked, he said: “Wangye, Doctor Wu had an accident in there.”

“Speak…” Xiao Tianyao knitted his eyebrows, obviously, he was dissatisfied.

“The new batch of medicine has been mixed with poison. It was already late when they discovered it.” After he finished, Su Cha immediately bowed his head, he didn’t dare to look at Xiao Tianyao’s face.

“You ask benwang to stop, but you didn’t stop. Sure enough… … you wanted to keep the throne that bad.” Xiao Tianyao put his hands on the armrests and slightly leaned his back. His face was full of disdain.

“Wangye, what do we do now?” More and more soldiers were injured on the front line. But they continue to lose a batch of medicines, which was not easy to provide in a short period of time.

“Rob!” Xiao Tianyao tapped the handrail with his finger. His eyes looked as deep as a stagnant pool.

Su Cha was shocked and swallowed his saliva, then said: “Rob the Emperor?”

“Mmm. Let the people of the Devil’s Palace prepare.” When Xiao Tianyao gave his order, he didn’t even knit his brow.

“Won’t this expose our relationship to the Devil’s Palace?” Su Cha was even more worried about this.

“No.” The Emperor had just been robbed. If he was robbed again, he will only suspect the Ghost Mountain bandits. He will not suspect him.

“Okay, then I will arrange it.” Su Cha, who had a solemn looked nodded his head. But before leaving, he said another sentence: “Oh right, the poison mixed in our medicine came from Tiancang Pavilion.”

Xiao Tianyao has been humiliated several times because of Tiancang Pavilion.

“Tiancang Pavilion is really not afraid of death!” Xiao Tianyao’s eyes flashed with killing intent.

Someone will be unlucky.

Su Cha said from the bottom of his heart. Then, he silently prayed for the special envoy of the Tiancang Pavilion. He hoped he wouldn’t die too miserable.

Su Cha was preparing to go, but he heard the guard outside said: “Wangye, Wangfei seek an audience.”

At that moment, Xiao Tianyao’s murderous atmosphere disappeared at a speed that a naked eye couldn’t see. The temperature inside the room also became warm.

This is simply… …

Paying more attention to a lover than friends!

Su Cha opened his mouth to say something, but he heard Xiao Tianyao said: “Aren’t you going? Do you want benwang to personally see you off?”

“I…I am going!” Su Cha wanted to stay and watch the fun, but… …

He didn’t dare!
