Chapter 849: Message

The officials looked at each other.         

"This subject agrees."     

"This subject also agrees."     

"This subject agrees with Prince Yu\'s proposition."     

Even though Shangguan Yu was a married son in law to the Imperial Family, he was still a titled prince. Emperor Yang Zhou felt somewhat lazy and just used Shangguan Yu\'s name as his own title.     

Anyway, this man was the one who schemed his way into the Imperial Family.     

It was good enough that he was still given the title as a prince.     

Shangguan Yu himself didn\'t exactly mind with this kind of treatment as he felt that as long as he was still called a prince, he had higher prestige. Even when he was a crippled, he could still do some things that he had long wanted to do with this title.     

So for him, it was enough.     

Emperor Yang Zhou asked for some other opinions and everyone began to actively stated the record and so on.     

At the back, Song Chuan watched everything unfolded with his eyes watching Shangguan Yu.     

No one was unfamiliar with this name.     

A crippled, a concubine son, and also a son in law prince married into the Imperial Family.     

However, no one ever looked at Shangguan Yu favorably because they felt that he was just a person who was deemed to have nothing in this world. Even though Shangguan Family was a big family, no one seemed to care about the person named Shangguan Yu.     

For so many years, all they could remember from him was the fact that he was a cripple.     

And that it was hard for him to find anyone to get married because many of them looked down upon this cripple who didn\'t seem to have any future at all. No one thought that this cripple was actually an educated person and had many remarkable ideas.     

Looking at the way the two prime ministers looked at Shangguan Yu, they seemed to be surprised too.     

\'So, you\'re starting to bare your fangs, huh?\'     

Long Qian Xing had warned him before that Shangguan Yu is a double edge sword. He could benefit them but could also hurt them if they were not careful enough. This was the reason why Long Qian Xing originally didn\'t want to have any interaction whatsoever with him.     

He\'s a dangerous person.     

While he looked like a gentleman on the outside, what he had done on the shadow was terrifying.     

Perhaps, Commander Shangguan had already known about it all in advance, which was why he never talked with this crippled son of his personally anymore for so many years. He abandoned this brilliant son of his.     

No one knew what his goal in the end was.     

But Song Chuan knew that since Shangguan Yu was accepted as the prince, the politics world wouldn\'t be so peaceful anymore.     

He will slowly but surely integrate himself.     

Shangguan Yu nearly became the champion during the Imperial Examination back then and normally people would not remember number two. That was why not many people remembered that Shangguan Yu was actually very knowledgeable.         

Perhaps, he was on par with the champion at that time.     

After all, Song Chuan was not exactly clear about the selection method within the palace.     

"That\'s all for today."     

"Emperor is wise, long live Emperor."     

Everyone kowtowed and then Emperor Yang Zhou walked out of the main hall. Today has been extremely tiring for him and Emperor Yang Zhou had no intention of entertaining these officials again.     

He needed some rest.     

Walking out, he glanced at Imperial Guard Lan. "Have you heard news about Long Qian Xing?"     

"Replying to Your Majesty, Young Master Long is resting in his residence. Would His Majesty like to call him?"     

Emperor Yang Zhou recalled that young man\'s appearance back then and shook his head. He knew how grim Long Qian Xing looked like back then and how enraged he was. This must have been devastating news for Long Qian Xing.     

He had no hobby of poking people where it hurts, so he would not disturb Long Qian Xing during this time.     

Anyway, it would soon be time for Long Qian Xing to go to the frontline soon.     

He hoped that by staying at the battlefield, Long Qian Xing could slowly forget about this matter.     

"There\'s no need."     

"Yes, Your Majesty."     

Imperial Guard Lan stayed still in his place and then followed Emperor Yang Zhou within a distance away. His role was to guard the Emperor, so he had to pay close attention whenever the Emperor needed him.     

After that assassination incident, he was basically stuck with working within the inner palace from time to time. Not that he was complaining, but he wondered whether there would be such assassination case again.     

If there was, he had to be even more vigilant.     

Hopefully, no one was that stupid.     

…     

Back in the main hall, the officials began to disperse. This time, they didn\'t go back directly and instead walked towards Shangguan Yu and began to talk with him. His performance today had surprised many of them, making them somewhat curious about this new prince who used to be relatively looked down.     

Song Chuan watched from a distance before he walked away. Even though he had to admit that he was somewhat curious about Shangguan Yu, but he didn\'t want to get close to the other party.     

It would be better for him to stay away.     

As he walked out of the main hall and walked on the long road, Prime Minister Lan walked not far from him.     

"Official Song."     

"Prime Minister Lan."         

"If it\'s not inconvenient for you, I would like you to help me pass a message to Young Master Long. The act today is done well, but please don\'t stay down for a long period of time. Fei Yang Kingdom still needs him." Prime Minister Lan didn\'t even look at Song Chuan as he sped up after saying what he wanted to say.     

Song Chuan\'s pace was still the same. Only his eyes narrowed slightly when he looked at Prime Minister Lan\'s back.     

Song Chuan knew that Prime Minister Lan knew something. But even if Prime Minister Lan knew something, he would never personally admit this matter to Prime Minister Lan.     

There were things that would be better left unknown.     

And this matter was naturally included.     

\'How tiring.\' Song Chuan sighed.     

…     

    

*spurt*     

Lin Yuan looked at the message that was sent by his subordinate in disbelief. He thought that it was already bad enough that there was chaos at the Capital City that hindered his business.     

Who would have thought that an even more earth shattering news would spread?     

He looked at his men who delivered the letter. "Is this news true?"     

"Yes, Young Master, this is the true news that spread in Fei Yang Kingdom\'s Capital City."\'     

As a merchant, Lin Yuan didn\'t exactly have any fixed place to stay. He loved going here and there because it would be the best method for him to be able to earn the most profit through the goods he had.     

This time, he was paying a short visit to Fei Yang Kingdom\'s north border while carrying some goods from Zhang Xu Kingdom. At the same time, he was thinking that he would be able to meet with Long Qian Xing and perhaps others at the frontline.     

But now, he felt that he really shouldn\'t disturb this young master.     

"A pity…" Lin Yuan sighed. "Help me deliver some wine to Young Master Long."     

The servant lips\' twitched. If he was not wrong, Long Qian Xing was still underage, right? Lin Yuan was trying to make an underage drunk?     

He silently does what Lin Yuan asked him to do.     

Anyway, even if Lin Yuan ended up being beaten up in the end, that was not his business at all. He just had to follow what Lin Yuan was asking him to do.     

…     

    

After the long meeting in the palace, Shangguan Yu was finally released. He couldn\'t exactly avoid those people because they were pestering him and hoping to be able to get some kind of benefit from him.     

After all, they had begun to see that the \'useless\' Young Master Shangguan was actually not that useless. He still has merit and might even go further in the future with his knowledge and ability.     

Shangguan Yu knew that his position was still somewhat low.         

But he had a long way to go in the future.     

Returning home, he was helped to go down the carriage with a servant pushing the wheelchair behind him. He looked at the red sky in the evening and thought for a moment. "I\'ll eat with Yang Hu today."     

"Yes, Master."     

The servants could never understand why Shangguan Yu wanted to get close to Princess Hu in the slightest bit. They had seen Princess Hu throwing her temper and didn\'t even bother to maintain good appearance with Shangguan Yu.     

At this moment, they even looked down on that princess somewhat.
