Chapter 626 - 623: Satisfaction_1
Lu Jin looked at Zhong Shaozhong and gently shook his head. "I’m talking about King Liang..."
King Liang sat at the desk in front of a small dark lamp. Having stayed up all night, a light stubble appeared on his chin, and his eyes looked increasingly deep-set. His gaze was no longer as timid as it usually was in front of others. Instead, it revealed a harsh determination.
"Did King Xian personally go to examine the body?" King Liang asked.
Hongqiao, kneeling on the ground, nodded. "Indeed, I saw him from afar. King Xian looked relieved. The headless corpse was likely Fu Ruoxi. After all, Fu Ruoxi lost an arm; there’s no doubt about that. And it wasn’t a coincidence that another person missing an arm died at this time!"
"What about the clothes? Did you look at them closely?" King Liang asked again.
"King Xian’s people guarded closely. I couldn’t look closely. However, from what I saw, it should be Fu Ruoxi!" Hongqiao said confidently.
King Liang let out a long breath. As long as this major event was confirmed, the first thing he would do after ascending the throne was to ensure the Bai family was utterly ruined and dead without a burial place.
"Your Highness, there’s another matter. The Commandery Princess intended to have someone assassinate Princess of Zhen last night, but King Xian stopped it and threw a huge tantrum." Hongqiao reported.
King Liang pondered. Liu Ruofu, the only daughter of King Xian, spoiled by her father and reputed as the most beautiful woman in Jin, could get anything she wanted in Nandu, even more respected than a princess! At the last palace banquet, Prince of Daliang mistook her, causing her immense shame. Unable to blame Prince of Daliang, Liu Ruofu naturally hated Bai Qingyan to the core.
Hongqiao glanced at the thoughtful King Liang and bowed her head. "I need to return before the Commandery Princess wakes up. Your Majesty, I shall take my leave." Hongqiao bowed to King Liang.
