Chapter 901 - 898: Wagging Tail to Beg
Even if the Princess of Zhen is killed, there is still Bai Jinxiu outside, along with the other young ladies of the Bai family. If the Princess of Zhen truly dies within Luohong City, Bai Jinxiu will surely attack Luohong City in fury. If the city falls, His Majesty would have no chance of survival, and as their servants, we also might not live for many days.
After a moment, Gao Demao withdrew his gaze, a green shadow before his eyes.
In his heart, Gao Demao made a secret resolution, a decision made in desperation to survive.
If the Crown Prince cannot persuade His Majesty, and His Majesty indeed wants to kill the Princess of Zhen, Gao Demao must find a way to ensure the Princess of Zhen’s survival, for only if she lives does he have a chance to live.
Gao Demao has served His Majesty for so many years and naturally does not wish to see the Jin Kingdom perish. But it is clear that the Jin Kingdom’s great strength has waned, and regardless of the Princess of Zhen’s fate, the Jin Kingdom is headed for destruction. If one cannot see this reality, only death awaits.
Gao Demao sighed and left slowly with the eunuchs.
Just after Gao Demao left, someone from the Crown Prince’s side came to summon Qin Shangzhi, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince requested Mr. Qin’s presence for an important discussion.
The Crown Prince had been indecisive outside the Emperor’s bedchamber until Quan Yu advised him to send for Qin Shangzhi to discuss the matter.
After meeting Qin Shangzhi, the Crown Prince informed him of the Emperor’s intention to take Bai Qingyan’s life when she arrives in Luohong City. Qin Shangzhi was shocked and hurriedly urged the Crown Prince to go before the Emperor to stop this absurd notion.
