"I don’t know why I feel this way, but I just think this man is unusual. You see, he’s disabled but hasn’t stayed quietly in Beijing. Did you find out why he ca with us to Lanyue, brother?"
Hearing this, Murong Han suddenly rembered sothing, "Did we forget sothing important? What did cousin say earlier? The person behind Liuyun Sect might be soone from the Holy Dynasty Royal Family?"
Murong Xue held back her excitent (Emma, did we finally get to this point?), and looked at Murong Han with wide eyes.
"Are you suggesting that this royal mber might be Beiming Yi?"
Murong Han was taken aback: "Why would you think of him?"
"It’s simple. He ca with us to Lanyue, unexpectedly helped us, perhaps because we had shared hardships at sea? Also, during his ti in Lanyue, his activities, as brother said, seed limited to business dealings, nothing too strange. If it was rely for business, would he, a cripple, travel such a long distance? Anyway, when I looked in his eyes, I felt this man is deep, not as simple as he appears. A cripple? Grandpa Shui’s explanation of his illness was vague, even if he’s not pretending, it can be his strongest shield."
Murong Han stroked his chin, lost in thought, seemingly not having considered this aspect before. Murong Xue then asked, "What’s the situation in the Holy Dynasty now?"
"The Crown Prince’s Palace is bustling daily, with either guests or officials. At the Empress’s side, the palace gates remain tightly closed, and she sees no one."
Simple as it was, the words seed to invoke wild imaginations, "Has Beiming Yi ever ntioned who poisoned him?"
Speaking of poison, Murong Xue had a peculiar expression, "It’s funny, why is it that in your royal family, if it’s not a poisonous insect, then it’s poison? It seems like aside from these two, there’s no other way to climb up? Lanyue is ssed up because of an extra Bai Family mber, what about the Holy Dynasty here? It can’t also be related to the Donglin Continent, right?"
They say those speaking casually can end up enlightening, Murong Xue’s random words made Murong Han fall into contemplation, and he raised his eyes monts later.
"This matter probably needs thorough investigation, even though I don’t have much rapport with Beiming Yi, it seems Shui Yixuan is sowhat involved with him. I think, if necessary, we should alert him. If it’s indeed the doing of Donglin Continent, their motive is far from simple disintegration."
Murong Xue rubbed her tense temples, "The thing I dislike most is the intrigue, okay, you guys take your ti dealing with this, I want to go to Liuyang, take my people, find a shop, and start over."
Murong Han couldn’t leave Beijing, so he sent people to escort Murong Xue, but unexpectedly, she was abducted en route. The culprits were uninterested in fighting and didn’t an harm, they left a letter and swiftly departed with the acupoint-struck Murong Xue.
When the inept Hidden Guard handed the letter over to Murong Han, it turned out to be personally written by Beiming Yi.
"Heard that the Sixth Princess excels in dicine and poison, as the Holy Dynasty is in turmoil, I urgently need to regain the ability to walk upright. Due to ti constraints, I chose this thod to take her away. King Han, rest assured, your sister will be safely returned to Lanyue, though the tiline is uncertain."
Murong Han imdiately wrote to Shui Yixuan, yet compared to him, Shui Yixuan was more suitable, being a native of the Holy Dynasty, and with connections with Holy Water Manor and Snow Wolf Valley having ties with the Holy Dynasty Royal Family, so his influence might not be as strong as Shui Yixuan’s, and also because he felt this person should be more worried about the sister than himself.
Regarding Murong Han, it’s not that he’s not concerned about Murong Xue, but he feels this sister is far from as easy to handle as Beiming Yi imagines.
Assuming that simply abducting her would lead to detoxification? It’s simply a joke.
Murong Xue may not have martial arts, but it doesn’t an she’s incapable of self-defense. Sotis, even Murong Han is curious about how she manages to hide so much poison without being discovered by others; every ti he asks, she just gives a mysterious smile without explanation. Thus, Murong Han is aware of the need to explore his sister’s abilities, and as a royal child, she should be conditioned to the possibility of being abducted at any mont. Even if one Bai Family is eliminated, there will be another, look, even the Holy Dynasty’s Prince Yi couldn’t resist coming out to play kidnapping?
