Chapter 378: Turing Duo: The Unmarried Husband!
Hearing Suo Lun’s threatening words, Gui Qinshao’s face drained of color, and she hissed, "Shameless, Suo Lun, you scoundrel."
"You’re not seeing my shamelessness for the first time," Suo Lun said with a smile. "Remember, tomorrow afternoon at Hua Yu Pavilion, just you alone should come. I’ll wait for you until sunset. If you haven’t appeared by the time the sun sets, then by tomorrow evening, your reputation as an unchaste woman will spread throughout the entire City of Rage Wave."
Upon hearing these words, Gui Qinshao immediately shook with anger.
"I won’t let you succeed. I’ll have Ling Ao kill you, I’ll have him kill you tonight," Gui Qinshao said through clenched teeth.
Suo Lun laughed. "Kill me? In front of countless nobles and lords? Not to mention Ling Ao can’t do it, even Zhi Li wouldn’t dare to act in such a way. Killing a noble without just cause, the King would have reason to strip Zhi Li His Highness from his status as heir the very next day."
Gui Qinshao said coldly, "The King is already a spent force, now the whole world belongs to His Highness Zhi Li."
"You’re still so brainless, Gui Qinshao," Suo Lun said. "The King has been abandoned by the nobles and lords, so it’s probably very hard for him to issue an order to get something done. But if he wants to order someone’s death, no one dares to stop it."
Suo Lun was absolutely right. A king abandoned by the nobles and lords is still a king.
At least, he still held control over the inner court, and also had Gao Yin and Gao Yu leading the most formidable royal guards. Once the King decreed to kill someone, that person would either gladly accept their fate or openly defy the order and rebel.
"Remember, before sunset tomorrow, come alone to Hua Yu Pavilion to meet me, don’t be late, or else bear the consequences," Suo Lun said with a smile. "Don’t worry, I definitely won’t break that false hymen of yours."
"Get out, get out of here, you’re not welcome here," Gui Qinshao finally couldn’t help it, and pointed outside as she yelled loudly.
