She would try her best to shield her beloved ones. Yun Xiao was her man, so she wouldn’t let those who had hurt him live……
The Imperial Palace was in the midst of chaos. At this moment, since Gao Tu and Gao Ling were captured by the Yun Family, all the other princes were vying for the throne. Therefore, the Imperial Palace was in a civil war.
In the Fourth Prince’s Estate.
Gently shaking the teacup in his hand, Gao Shaochen was pondering, his handsome jade-like face showing a mild smile, his eyes flickering with a cunning light. He was just like a fox, and nobody could discern what was going through his mind.
"Your Highness, shall we fight for the throne?"
Looking at the handsome man who leisurely tasted his tea, one of his trusted subordinates hesitated for a while and finally asked him, puzzled by his inaction.
Gao Shaochen chuckled, "These people are too stupid. The throne is not for them to win. Without the backing of the Spirit Sect, the emperor of Long Yuan Kingdom will not be changed."
That was why he took no action during all these years. Without the support of the Spirit Sect, nobody would be able to ascend to the throne.
Suddenly, a sneering voice came and made Gao Shaochen’s heart miss a beat, "Everyone is drunk but I alone am sober. Does this saying describe a person like you?"
When did this person sneak into the Fourth Prince’s Estate? How was it that he didn’t notice it at all? Thinking about it, Gao Shaochen looked around and found a woman sitting in a wooden chair of the study.
The woman was in green, wearing a purple organza and a jade pendant hanging on her waist. With a mild smile on her beautiful face, she cupped her chin in her hand and gazed at Gao Shaochen who was stunned at her visit.
"But your vigilance is so poor that I have been here for a long time, and you were not aware of it."
Gao Shaochen’s face darkened, and he asked coldly, "Who are you?"
The woman in green chuckled and walked away from the chair. Her steps were light and agile.
"I came here to ask you something. Do you want to be the emperor of the Longyuan Kingdom?"
Gao Shaochen looked suspiciously at the woman in green: "What is your identity? Why can you decide the ownership of the throne of the Longyuan Kingdom?"
"Who am I? " The woman in green raised her eyebrows, "Your father and brother should know it, but unfortunately, they were captured by the Yun Family. Alright, I will tell you my identity." The woman in green paused, and continued, "I am Si Xuan, the heiress of the Spirit Sect. Now do you think I have the right to determine the ownership of your throne?"
"The Spirit Sect?" Gao Shaochen paused. When he heard the words of the woman in green, there was no joy but just prudence in his cunning foxy eyes. "Why would you help me?
Si Xuan glanced at Gao Shaochen and continued, "Our Spirit Sect has a rule for choosing the emperor of the secular world. That is, never choose a smart guy in case he betrays us. But I don’t agree. I’m only interested in cooperating with a smart guy like you. Both Gao Tu and Gao Ling are too stupid and boring."
If it were someone else, he might have believed Si Xuan’s words. But what kind of a person was Gao Shaochen? He was always entrapping people, and no one could entrap him!
If Si Xuan said she had no purpose, he would definitely not believe it!
"Miss Si Xuan, then what do you want me to do for you after I have ascended to the throne?"
