Chapter 537 - 537 Robbery (2)



Fu Xiuyi shook his head.

“That’s strange.” Pei Lang analyzed, “If you didn’t interact with him before, I really can’t think of a reason why he would make things difficult for you. You didn’t get in his way. Even if the Daliang Dynasty wants to make things difficult for Ming Qi, he should target His Majesty or the Crown Prince instead.”

Fu Xiuyi nodded. “I think so too. Perhaps…” He pondered for a moment.” Perhaps it’s for Shen Miao?”

“Your Highness, what do you mean?” Another advisor asked.

“I thought about it. Among all the things Prince Rui said, Shen Miao was the only one who was related to me in some way. However, at that time, I couldn’t tell if he was joking or doing it on purpose, and I felt that Shen Miao had nothing to do with him. Now that I think about it, I find it a little strange.”

An advisor said, “Could it be that Prince Rui and Shen Miao have a secret relationship?”

Pei Lang said firmly, “That’s impossible.”

Everyone looked at him. Pei Lang’s words carried authority. What he said or predicted would always come out true in the end.

“Prince Rui just arrived in Ming Qi, and Shen Miao returned to the capital with Shen Xin not long ago. It’s definitely impossible for them to have any contact before then.” Pei Lang cupped his hands and said, “Your Highness, you should know that Prince Rui is not an easy person to deal with. Since the Daliang Dynasty sent him to Ming Qi, Prince Rui must be a person who weighs the pros and cons before doing anything. In such a short time, it’s not beneficial for him to be enemies with you for a woman like Shen Miao.”

Hearing this, Fu Xiuyi pondered for a moment and said, “You have a point. In your opinion, what should we do now?”

“If we act rashly, it will alert Prince Zhou and the others. Ever since the banquet, Prince Rui has never mentioned leaving Ming Qi. He must have something to do in the capital. However, with the State of Qin around, we’re not afraid. Why don’t we wait and see what Prince Rui is up to?”

Pei Lang said slowly.

Fu Xiuyi nodded. “In that case, let’s do as Mr. Pei says.” He pressed his forehead. “I drank too much today. I still have to go to court tomorrow morning. I need to rest first. Everyone, that’s it for today.”

After Fu Xiuyi left, the advisors in the hall dispersed in twos and threes. No one was with Pei Lang because Pei Lang was trusted by Fu Xiuyi too much. He would more or less make people jealous. In Prince Ding’s mansion, no one was on good terms with him.

Pei Lang walked out of the hall and looked at the stars in the sky in a daze.

It had been two years. He complied with the agreement with that girl and finally became Fu Xiuyi’s trusted advisor. His life had been peaceful. He relied on his intelligence to gain Fu Xiuyi’s trust. Everything went very naturally. Sometimes, Pei Lang even felt that this was how the trajectory of his life should be. However, Shen Miao’s return broke this illusion. From the beginning, Pei Lang knew there was going back on the agreement with Shen Miao. From the moment he was recruited by Fu Xiuyi, he had become a spy that he originally despised the most.

Fu Xiuyi treated him extremely well, but he was destined to betray him.

Pei Lang sighed deeply.

The peaceful days were over. From now on, the path he had to walk would be like today, filled with danger. If he was not careful, he would fall into a bottomless abyss.

Shen Miao… The delicate face of the girl in purple appeared in Pei Lang’s mind.
