Chapter 194 Snatching
Chapter 194 Snatching
Liu Gao glanced at the black slave and said, "I threw away Xuanyuan Feng's token. Nothing happened."
Meiji laughed: "Naive."
She has followed Xuanyuan Feng for so long, and although she doesn't know him thoroughly, she knows him about 50% of the time.
Xuanyuan Feng would never admit defeat to such a crude frame-up.
"Let's not talk about Xuanyuan Feng for now. Your princess is not someone who can be fooled easily. A token doesn't mean anything. The wound caused by your scimitar is different from other weapons. The witch doctor will know it after a check."
"If I were you, I would get rid of the person. If the body cannot be found, everything will be left to imagination. Xuanyuan Feng will not be able to explain it even if he opens ten mouths. What do you think?"
Although Liu Gao felt that this was too cumbersome, as Mei Ji said, only if the body was not found could Xuanyuan Feng be convicted.
Even if there was doubt, no one could say anything bad about Liu Gao.
Liu Gao and Meiji quickly dealt with the body with the help of Zhui Yu's power.
Before parting with Meiji, Liu Gao asked Meiji: "Why did you help me?"
Meiji covered her lips and smiled: "I didn't help you, I helped my silly sister. You have been living a life of luxury in the Northern Territory these years, with a beautiful woman in your arms, but my sister is so sad every day, you have to live a good life."
"Otherwise, wouldn't my sister's suffering over the years be in vain? Who can I find to vent my anger?"
Liu Gao was silent for a long time before he asked, "Is she often sad?"
Meiji smiled at him, and that smile was meaningful.
As the lights came on, Liu Gao stood in front of the attic door. On the platform was the charming face of a woman with a radiant look.
As if she noticed someone was looking at her, the woman turned her head and looked towards the door.
But apart from the beaded curtains blown by the wind, there was no figure she wanted to see.
Zhi Miao smiled slightly, with a hint of loss in her eyes, but she quickly came back to her senses and continued to deal with the guests in the pavilion.
After the first place in the last poetry question was announced, the lights in the pavilion dimmed.
Four tall women with veils on their faces carried trays onto the lotus platform, and then placed the lotus platform on the central table.
As the red cloth was lifted, a golden light burst out, causing almost everyone present to cover their eyes with their hands, because the light emitted by this object was so dazzling.
When the light faded, a thunderous exclamation suddenly rang out from the pavilion: "This is the legendary nine-story lotus platform!"
"Look at the beads on the top of the tower. They are the relics of a great monk who passed away in meditation. They have been tempered by lightning and fire. Look! They are still glowing!"
“It’s glowing!”
The eyes of the people in the pavilion were fiery, as fierce as those of wolves and tigers. If there were no thugs standing by to keep the situation under control, there would definitely be those who were not afraid of death who would rush onto the stage to snatch the items.
Although the treasure was carried onto the stage by four people, its actual size was only about the length of a newborn baby and the size of a bowl, so it was not considered big.
But it is made entirely of gold, so it must be quite heavy, which is why someone needs to carry it up.
After letting everyone admire it for a moment, Zhi Miao ordered people to carry the treasure away.
There was no plan to introduce the winner to everyone.
The guests in the pavilion refused to accept and clamored to see the winner.
However, Zhi Miao ignored these noisy people and only called the top dancer in the pavilion to perform.
Under the coaxing of the beautiful Ji Zi, everyone soon forgot about the poetry meeting.
No matter how good the treasure is, Shang Jingxuan and the others cannot offend it.
Everyone knows that the person behind Shangjingxuan is extremely powerful.
For a treasure that has been secretly coveted by countless people, offending important figures in the court is a small matter, but losing one's life is a big deal.
Some things, if they are yours, ... and if they are not yours, you can’t take them away from them even if you try to snatch them away.
Everyone in this pavilion tonight is a smart person, so they understand this truth.
Now that you have entered Furong Pavilion, your main priority is to seek pleasure. Apart from seeking pleasure, everything else is secondary.
There was a lot of noise and fun in the lobby, and in the attic, a dying woman was carried out from Xuanyuan's elegant room by a waiter.
Inside the house, Xuanyuan Feng and his good friend were leaning on cushions with their chests bare, with a look of contentment on their faces.
The servant came in from outside and whispered a few words hurriedly into Xuanyuan Feng's ear.
Xuanyuan Feng got up from the cushion, put on his brocade robe and went out.
"Brother Feng, what are you doing?"
Xuanyuan Feng ignored him and strode out the door.
The remaining people in the room looked at each other, and saw in each other's eyes that less trouble is better, so they shook their heads and stopped talking.
That night, Shangjingxuan was still a place of lively conversation and feasting.
A man wearing a cloak hurried out from the back door of Shangjingxuan, and then got on the carriage in front of the back door.
With the driver's shout of "Gee", the carriage slowly started moving.
As soon as the carriage moved away, several dark shadows followed it.
On the carriage, the man lifted his cloak and looked at the nine-story lotus pagoda in his arms, his eyes narrowed into slits, obviously excited.
I never thought that this accidental news was actually true. This rare treasure, the Lotus Platform, actually appeared in Shangjingxuan in the capital.
Fortunately, his highness had foresight and bribed the people in Shangjingxuan to get the topic of the poetry meeting.
This gave them time to prepare and then win the championship in one fell swoop.
It is said that this treasure can communicate human nature, and the Buddhist beads on the top of the tower are the relics of an eminent monk.
His Highness loves to worship Buddha. Not only does his Highness like it, but the old Queen Mother is also devoted to Buddhism.
It will be her 90th birthday soon. His Highness is a filial son. He thinks that since this item is so miraculous, he would like to give it to her on her birthday to wish her a long life and hope that the old empress dowager will recover soon.
The old empress had fallen seriously ill at the beginning of the year and was at the end of her strength. She sought out famous doctors all over the world and tried every possible method, but nothing worked.
If not for this, his prince would not be so anxious to get this thing. After all, there are rumors that this thing can absorb the foul air in the human body. Sick air is also a foul thing, so this thing may be useful.
His Highness has a deep relationship with the old Queen Mother, so even if it's fake, he has to give it a try.
Fortunately, after being frightened for such a long time, I finally calmed down.
He had just sent someone back to inform them that the things had been obtained. His Highness would surely be delighted to hear the news.
While I was still thinking about it, the carriage suddenly jolted, followed by a muffled groan from the coachman, and the carriage shook a few times before slowly stopping.
The man in the carriage realized something was wrong and lifted the curtain to get out.
But just as he showed his head, he was blocked back into the carriage by the sword light falling from the sky.
The man protected the pagoda in his arms and fell into the carriage. He looked at the shadow in front of the carriage door and shouted, "Who are you? I am the fifth prince of Huang Yan! If you dare to touch me, you are against Huang Yan!"
I only heard a cold sneer from the person at the door. The voice that came out was neither male nor female, which was deliberately concealed: "You said you are from Huangyan, so you are? Do you have any evidence?"
"Yes!" The man hurriedly took out the token from his arms, but after finding it empty, he suddenly remembered that he had given his subordinate the token when he asked him to go back and report.
"My token was given to my subordinates, but I..."
Before the man could finish his words, his head was chopped off.
The head rolled to the corner, but the eyes on the head were still blinking, and the mouth moved a few times, and then with an extremely ferocious expression, it completely died.
