Chapter 615 – Lighting up fires and looting (9)
Not to mention, the woman he loved was standing beside him right now. Such a great opportunity to show off his brilliance and military might, how could he let it go.
Nangong Liuyun cast a faint glance at Emperor Jing, his eyes turning cold: “Father Emperor, face and respect is not for people to give, it is something you must strive to acquire. At this moment, do you insist on being partial to him?”
Looking at Nangong Liuyun’s pair of profoundly deep eyes, Emperor Jing’s heart had some restrained fear, and he coldly said: “Then what do you want to do?”
Nangong Liuyun: “Still those same words, it is heaven’s law and only proper to pay back a debt.”
“How many properties and industry of his did you destroy? Can’t even count it ……” Emperor Jing complained.
Suddenly, a list written in black and white, was placed in front of Emperor Jing’s face, that list was clearly classified with the addresses arranged neatly.
He was investigating the Crown Prince? What did he want to do with such a thorough investigation of the Crown Prince? Could it be that he wanted to replace the Crown Prince?
Emperor Jing raised his eyes, stunned, and met Nangong Liuyun’s pair of dark, cold and cynical eyes. That enigmatic expression in those eyes would frighten a person’s heart.
Now, Emperor Jing suddenly recalled a saying: the golden scales of a person with no particular talent, after encountering challenges, would turn into a dragon.
Such a brilliant and splendid Nangong Liuyun, now, he was already a giant among men. How could this tiny Eastern Ling country hold him? How could the position of the Crown Prince even enter his eyes as worthy?
Emperor Jing immediately swallowed his original words of criticism that was in his throat.
Nangong Liuyun raised his eyebrows with a ghost of smile said: “How much the damaged properties were worth, is all clearly listed here, does Father Emperor have an objection?”
Emperor Jing felt very helpless.
He was obviously the ruler, why did he feel like he was being led by the nose by this second child?
He snorted twice: “Yes, can be considered clear and understandable.”
Nangong Liuyun unflinchingly said: “If it was not for the Crown Prince escaping, today’s affair also would not have occurred, Father Emperor, you tell me, am I right?”
The more the Crown Prince listened to this conversation, the more he felt something was fishy……
Emperor Jing, nevertheless, helplessly nodded: “What do you want?”
“This son, your official, only wants fairness.” Nangong Liuyun’s eyes became slightly cold, “Now, even though the Crown Prince was the main culprit, but this son is still willing to assume half of the Crown Prince’s losses, does Father Emperor have any objections?”
Before Emperor Jing could reply, the Crown Prince jumped up: “Who are you calling the main culprit? I can only see that the real main culprit is her!”
The Crown Prince’s finger pointed directly to Su Luo.
Su Luo frowned slightly.
She was just curious about how the emperor of ancient times looked in the flesh, therefore, when Nangong Liuyun consulted for her wishes, she just followed him without saying a word.
She was merely here to watch the play and didn’t want to participate in this performance. But the Crown Prince, being this flustered and exasperated, could offend Nangong Liuyun ah.
Su Luo crossed her arms over her chest, casting a sidelong glance at the utterly discomfited Crown Prince. The corner of her mouth lifted into a careless smile.
Because of being pointed out by the Crown Prince, everyone’s line of sight was concentrated on Su Luo.
Needless to say, the Empress’ expression was not good.
Emperor Jing was now looking at Su Luo, with a dark look, his eyes narrowed dangerously.
Emperor Jing frowned with displeasure: “When did this emperor’s imperial study become a place that anyone could just wantonly enter?”
Su Luo indifferently glanced at Emperor Jing, coldly smiled and said: “The Emperor reminded this subject, this subject will now leave.”
When Su Luo turned to leave, her slim white wrist was pulled to a stop by Nangong Liuyun. They only saw Nangong Liuyun smiling towards Su Luo and whispering something in her ear. When his eyes lifted up again, they were already hazed over.
Those jet-black as ink eyes, were oozing with horrifying light, sinister and bloody, truly would terrify people.
Even Emperor Jing couldn’t help but retreat a step back.
The corner of Nangong Liuyun’s mouth held a sneer, and his sinister words sounded: “Father Emperor, by becoming the emperor, this king’s Luo girl can enter and exit this imperial study at will?”
