YM778.TV Chapter 214 - Blame Your Son
Chapter 214: Blame Your Son
One of the things that the emperor could not tolerate the most was that his own son wanted to curse him to death!
The Crown Prince looked at the little doll under the pillow with a stunned expression!
No matter how stupid he was, he knew what this meant.
“How is that possible, Mister Zhuo? This is framing. Someone is framing me!”
Mister Zhuo said coldly, “You can go and explain to His Majesty!”
In the royal palace, this was the first time the Crown Prince had seen Emperor Chu in months.
In front of Emperor Chu was a small ragdoll.
Cursed spiritual power still surged on it.
Behind the doll was Emperor Chu’s name carved on it.
As for the Crown Prince was kneeling on the ground… and beside him was Wei Song.
“Why do you have to do this? I don’t have much time left. You can’t even wait?” Emperor Chu’s voice was filled with suppressed anger.
The Crown Prince hurriedly shouted, “Royal Father! Royal Father! This son is innocent! I don’t know who placed this thing under this son’s pillow!”
Emperor Chu sneered and said, “You’re also a f*cking 2nd Grade Earth Rank. Don’t tell me you can’t even sense something under your pillow when you sleep?”
“Uh…”
The moment these words were spoken, the Crown Prince had no words to say. He muttered, “This son doesn’t know, this son is really innocent!”
Emperor Chu shouted, “If you’re innocent, why does Wei Song know about this? Moreover, Zhuo Chen has already said that when he went to the Crown Prince’s residence, from the moment you went out from your room till he went in no one else had entered your room! Other than you and that concubine, there’s no one else in your room! What else do you want to say? Could it be that your concubine let him in?”
The Crown Prince seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw as he shouted, “That’s right! It must be her! It’s that b*tch!”
At this moment, Wei Song said, “Your Highness, don’t quibble. I’ve already told His Majesty the truth. Your use of witchcraft to curse His Majesty is not the way to be a son. Although I, Wei Song, have committed a crime, I did not wish to see His Majesty kept in the dark.”
The Crown Prince suddenly stood up and pointed at Wei Song. “You’re slandering me!”
Emperor Chu said coldly, “With the evidence in front of you, how can you still have the face to say this? Men, throw Wei Song and the Crown Prince into jail!”
After suppressing him, Emperor Chu looked at the doll in front of him and laughed in anger. “Hehe! My good son! He’s really my good son. He can even think of such a method.”
The furious Emperor Chu’s face turned ashen once again. At this moment, the young man appeared and helped him infuse more True Qi.
He smiled and said, “Why are you being so angry? Someone might really have framed him for this matter!”
Emperor Chu angrily smashed the doll to the ground!
“Frame him? Why did I specially ask Zhuo Chen to follow him? It was to prevent anyone from framing him during the chaos. But this thing was found under his pillow! Under his pillow! Even just now, he was still sleeping up there! How could he not know?” Emperor Chu gritted his teeth and said hatefully.
At this point, Emperor Chu took a deep breath and calmed his emotions. He then said, “Taking ten thousand steps back, even if he is innocent, he is still the Crown Prince! He will inherit the throne of a country in the future. If he cannot even realize it when someone stuffed something inside his pillow, how can such a person scheme against an enemy country? How can he control the civil and military officials of the royal court?”
“I originally thought that he was not magnanimous enough. It’s fine, but at the very least, he has to keep up with his methods. But now it seems that he’s just a useless thing who can’t do anything right!” Emperor Chu said sternly, “This matter is not over! Immediately interrogate Wei Song with torture. Tell him that as long as he says the truth, I will let his entire family off. Also, capture the Crown Prince’s concubines and servants for interrogation! I want to see who did this!”
At this moment, the man in black entered and bowed. “Your Majesty, Xiang Sheng went to visit Wei Song today!”
Emperor Chu frowned!
“Capture Xiang Sheng as well!”
“Report! Your Majesty, Wei Song just vomited blood and died! He’s suspected to have consumed poison.”
“What?”
Emperor Chu suddenly stood up, his expression extremely gloomy.
“This old bastard did it on purpose. He died after saying that. He wants to die and not leave any eyewitnesses behind!”
From the looks of it, Xiang Sheng was the only clue left.
“Throw Xiang Sheng into jail as well! Punish him severely! But remember, you are not allowed to maim or kill him!” At this moment, Emperor Chu did not show any mercy!
“Feiyan… Hmm… No, if she is Feiyan… why would she let Xiang Sheng go? She can totally come up with a way to do it without anyone knowing…” He pondered for a moment and calmed down.
One Xiang Sheng was enough. If they could not find anything from Xiang Sheng, there was no need to mention Xiang Feiyan!
The sleeping Xiang Sheng was captured!
Xiang Feiyan wailed as she tried to stop the guards.
Unfortunately, it was to no avail.
After Xiang Sheng was taken away, Xiang Feiyan gently wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes, her expression calm.
“As expected by the experts, everyone will be implicated… Sheng’er is just a method to confuse Father… The more obvious it seems, the more it will arouse Father’s suspicion… It will be hard for him to avoid suffering!” After Xiang Sheng left, Su Wen had explained everything to her.
The first was to use Wei Song to eliminate any lingering hatred Xiang Sheng might have for her for sending his paternal side to die. The second was to let Xiang Sheng fool Emperor Chu.
After all, Xiang Sheng went openly. Usually, the more obvious it was, the less likely he was to be the culprit. In any case, Xiang Sheng did not know anything, and Emperor Chu could not implicate him.
Once they could not get the truth from Xiang Sheng, Xiang Feiyan’s suspicion would be eliminated as well.
Meanwhile, where had Xiang Sheng encountered such cold punishment before?
It didn’t take long before he explained everything that happened that day. The interrogator then brought his statement to Emperor Chu.
Emperor Chu read the entire statement in silence.
After pondering for a while…
He muttered, “Wei Song, that old bastard, is he trying to get rid of any stumbling blocks for Xiang Sheng? No wonder he bit the Crown Prince… but why didn’t he do so before? Could it be that he didn’t know about this matter before? Did Xiang Sheng ask him to do it? No, that’s too obvious… If it wasn’t for Xiang Sheng, there would have been someone else in the mix… an expert… an expert who could enter the prison silently… Who could it be? The Third? Or the Fourth?”
Emperor Chu kept pondering, and his gaze became sharper.
The Crown Prince was the target of everyone. There were too many enemies, and it was possible for anyone to make a move!
“Zhuo Chen! Bring men to the Third Prince and Fourth Prince’s residence to search! Let’s see what we can find!”
Emperor Chu snapped!
It was destined to be an unstable night.
Su Wen was very relaxed. He had already returned to the capital of Great Zhou at this moment.
It had to be said that in terms of schemes and plots, there were too many classic cases in the history of China.
It was good to learn more of such things. These were all knowledge!
One could always use it as a reference.
However, to prevent himself from meeting the Heaven Rank experts, he decided to stay at Great Zhou for two days.
Furthermore, if Emperor Chu really lost his rationality or found out the truth, he could temporarily avoid it. After he returned, he could make a decision after seeing the situation.
He would not blindly believe that his plan would definitely succeed. Although he had already tried his best to erase all traces and the possibility of leakage, who knew if an accident would happen?
For example, Wei Song, that bastard, might suddenly choose to give himself a bite as well.
Although this possibility was very small in Su Wen’s opinion, he had to be wary.
And now, even if there was really a problem, the most that could happen was that Xiang Feiyan was captured. So long as he remained outside, there was still room for him to operate.
He slept well at home and recuperated.
In the Great Zhou East District, Wu Muyu and Zhao Wanrou were currently seated in the same carriage.
They did not bring any servants, carriage drivers, or guards with him. There were only two women and Su Wen, who was in charge of driving the carriage.
“Brother Su, are you tired from driving?”
Su Wen smiled and said, “How is this tiring? It’s my fortune to be able to drive the two of you.”
“Hehe! When we leave the city later, Muyu will give you a good massage.” Wu Muyu smiled.
Zhao Wanrou wrinkled her nose at her and said, “You little boot-licker!”
However, they did not notice that a figure was following behind their car!
It was Xu Qiao!
Recently, Old Xu had been loitering outside Su Wen and Wu Kunhu’s house.
He hated these two people to the bone!
However, what made him unhappy was that he realized that these two families were constantly guarded by experts.
Furthermore, they lived in seclusion. Even when they went out, most of them had guards with them.
He also did not dare to attack in public within the capital, so he did not take action.
However, today, he realized that Wu Muyu had actually gone to the palace to look for Zhao Wanrou. After the two of them left the palace, they drove all the guards away and got into a carriage that had only one driver, before rushing out of the city.
This time, Xu Qiao suddenly felt that he had a chance!
“Hmph, Your Majesty! Wu Kunhu! I’ll collect some interest first!”
If Xu Qiao hated someone the most, it would definitely be Su Wen.
However, other than the father and son of the Su family, there was still Emperor Zhou and Wu Kunhu.
After all, one of them was the emperor he had once been loyal to, but had turned around and killed his entire family. The other was the start of the conflict between his Xu family and the Su family.
If Wu Kunhu hadn’t proposed marriage, how could Xu Longcheng and Su Wen have fallen out?
Xu Qiao also remembered that Wu Muyu had insulted Xu Longcheng and that Wu Lie had plotted to frame Xu Longcheng.
As he kept thinking, he followed behind the carriage from afar.
He watched as the carriage left the East Gate and headed straight for the suburbs.
Xu Qiao was overjoyed!
Once he left the capital, he would be even more unrestrained!
In his opinion, with his strength, killing these two women without guards was akin to killing chickens.
In the carriage, Zhao Wanrou smiled at Su Wen. “Brother Su, I’ve been cultivating the technique you gave me recently and my improvement is extremely fast!”
Hearing this, Wu Muyu could not take it anymore.
She said aggrievedly, “Brother Su… is Muyu stupid? If Muyu is stupid, then just say it… Why did you give Wanrou a cultivation technique… and not me?”
The little girl was being unreasonable.
Su Wen’s forehead was covered in sweat as he smiled. “How should I put it… That cultivation technique is rather special… only royal descendants can cultivate it…”
Generally speaking, this reason was very suspicious.
However, Wu Muyu smiled and said, “Alright! I’ll forgive Brother. As long as Brother compensates me with a kiss later! One word for one kiss!”
“Alright!”
Su Wen agreed without hesitation.
Zhao Wanrou looked at Wu Muyu fiercely. This little girl was too good at competing for favor!
In return, Wu Muyu made a face at her.
She was extremely pleased with himself.
The carriage went further and further away before stopping at a scenic spot.
Su Wen smiled and said, “The two of you stay here obediently. I’ll go and settle a small problem!”
“Ah?!”
The two girls were stunned. But at this moment, Su Wen could see Xu Qiao rushing over!
He smiled sinisterly and said, “You two b*tches! Doesn’t that Su Wen like you two? Today, I’ll rape and kill the two of you first! Emperor Zhou, Wu Kunhu, and Su Wen will know that I, Xu Qiao, have taken advantage of you!”
As he spoke, he looked at Su Wen and said, “Brat, looks like you have some skills to discover me. Unfortunately, you will also die here today.”
He could tell that Su Wen seemed to have some strength, but he did not care.
He was confident that his combat strength was considered formidable amongst the 9th Grade Earth Rank cultivators. Could this person be a Heaven Rank expert? Of course not!
At this moment, something shocking happened.
Su Wen’s face turned blurry before he returned to his original appearance!
“Yo, yo, yo, yo. Old Xu, it’s only been a while since we last met, yet you don’t even recognize me anymore? However, I really didn’t expect you to still dare to return to the capital!” Su Wen teased.
Xu Qiao widened his eyes in shock and pointed at Su Wen. “You’re not in prison!”
“Prison my ass!” Su Wen looked at Xu Qiao and gritted his teeth. “You bastard, looks like you have ulterior motives! Today, I will cut off your JJ and stuff it into your mouth!”
Xu Qiao laughed maniacally. “Hahaha! You actually gave up on the path to heaven and instead barged into hell! I was just thinking about how to take revenge when you delivered yourself to my doorstep! Do you think you’re Wu Kunhu? Do you think you can take me down? If Wu Kunhu wasn’t here last time, I would have killed you!”
Su Wen placed his hands on his hips and roared with laughter. “Hahaha! Do you think I’m still the same me from back then? Call Wu Kunhu over now and I’ll beat him up for you to see!”
“Cough, cough, cough!” Wu Muyu coughed unhappily from behind.
Su Wen took a sharp turn. “But I can’t do anything! After all, he’s my future father-in-law. I’ll kill you today to liven things up!”
Hearing this, the spear in Xu Qiao’s hand appeared.
Black killing intent shrouded his body.
Even his eyes turned slightly bloodshot.
“Longcheng, Longzun, Madam! The heavens have eyes. I’ll avenge you today!”
Bang!
Before he could move, Su Wen had already moved!
“Fast!”
This thought flashed across Xu Qiao’s mind as he subconsciously brandished his spear.
This was an instinct left behind from years of battle!
BAM!
Xu Qiao was sent flying!
He widened his eyes in shock as he looked at Su Wen.
“You! How are you so strong?”
With just one move, he could tell that Su Wen was ridiculously powerful.
Su Wen exercised his wrist and said with a smile, “You’re not bad, you’re quite capable to be able to receive a punch from me. However, I don’t know how many punches you can receive!”
Bang!
Su Wen moved again, leaving a huge crater on the ground every time he took a step.
His figure was extremely fast, and his True Qi carried a red glow as he stepped on the Star Position.
“Herculean!”
“Divine Speed!”
Pa! Peng! Bang!
The two of them had only started fighting. Xu Qiao’s eyes were filled with shock!
At this moment, he finally confirmed one thing!
Su Wen was not bragging!
In Xu Qiao’s eyes, his combat strength gradually merged with Wu Kunhu’s shadow.
It was terrifyingly powerful.
His attacks were simple and unadorned, and his speed and strength were displayed to the extreme!
Xu Qiao could only be passively beaten up!
One had to know that he had been stuck at the 9th Grade of Earth Rank for many years. Through various methods, he had already done his best to improve himself. However, when facing Su Wen, he realized that he was actually so powerless!
A smile appeared on Su Wen’s face.
He had not even used his full strength yet!
It was just a game of cat and mouse.
“Old Xu! You’re relying on this to take revenge?!”
Su Wen teased.
Xu Qiao did not say a word and swung his spear with all his might to force Su Wen back. He roared, “Seven Kills As One, Spear Like Dragon, The Furious Dragon Assaults!”
The Seven Kills Ultimate Technique that had crushed Su Wen’s Saber Qi with a single bite reappeared!
“Kill!”
Xu Qiao swung his spear, and black killing intent condensed into an inky-black dragon that instantly danced wildly. The power of this attack was even stronger than before!
“Hmph! I can use you to test this move!”
Su Wen pointed out in response!
“Sunburst Spirit Finger, Three Absolutes Form — Sunfire Golden Awl!”
A golden Qi gathered at Su Wen’s fingertip!
By then, the black dragon had already arrived before him!
Whoosh!
Golden Qi shot out!
It was extremely fast! In just an instant, it passed through the dragon head and headed straight for Xu Qiao!
Xu Qiao did not even have time to dodge before the golden awl pierced through him, and a bloody hole the size of an index finger appeared on his body!
Bang!
In the next second, a huge explosion of Holy Flames unfolded!
The beam of light created by the Golden Awl skill exploded into flames wherever it passed.
A huge explosion engulfed Su Wen and Xu Qiao’s figures.
The black dragon condensed by Xu Qiao’s killing intent instantly dissipated under the explosive flames.
After a long while, the flames dissipated as well.
Xu Qiao still stood with his spear, his eyes filled with killing intent.
However, his body was already covered in blood blisters. Many places had even been charred…
The scent of roasted meat filled the air.
But it was no pleasant smell.
A large bloody hole could be seen on his right shoulder at this moment, and all the hair on Xu Qiao had been burnt off.
His body trembled, an instinctive struggle as he fought for his life.
He knew that he had lost! He had lost miserably in fact!
He also knew that he was going to die! Because Su Wen would not let him off!
However, he still forced himself to stay upright. He did not want to fall in front of Su Wen.
“Hahaha!” Xu Qiao forced out a maniacal laugh.
His voice was very hoarse as he stared at Su Wen and said in a deep voice, “You’ve won. I, Xu Qiao, lost! It’s also my Xu family that deserves to die! The winner takes all, so there’s nothing much to say. However, you’re just a dog of Emperor Zhou, just like me, Xu Qiao. One day, he won’t need you anymore, or if he has a better dog, he will kick you away and even kill your entire family!”
As he spoke, Xu Qiao tried his best and glared at Su Wen. “I will wait for you in hell!”
After he finished speaking, he forcefully severed his own heart meridians!
He stared straight forward, dying with his eyes wide open.
The scene was frightening.
Su Wen walked in front of him and the corners of his mouth curled up.
“I’m not like you… believe me… that day won’t come… whoever dares to touch my family will die…”
Bang!
Su Wen threw another punch and completely shattered Xu Qiao’s head!
“I don’t care if you faked your death or if you really died. I won’t give you any chance to turn the tables.”
Su Wen looked at the headless corpse and muttered.
He was used to being cautious.
If this old bastard had a secret technique to fake his death, wouldn’t letting him go cause trouble for himself?
Xu Qiao’s body fell over as a headless corpse.
Su Wen casually waved his hand, and a violent aura swept up the dust, creating a huge pit on the ground.
Su Wen kicked his corpse in.
“It’s all your son’s fault for not wanting to toast me even after I showed respect! Go down and teach him well!”
After saying that, Su Wen filled up the pit with soil..
