Chapter 197 - 74: The Letter of Divorce
In the flower garden of the Prince Mansion, several lively sparrows twittered melodiously from within their golden wire cages.
In Fa Xiaoyi’s hand, there was a map of the Yanpo Forest’s terrain.
As it’s recorded in the secret history of the Royal Family of Shang Kingdom, several prohibition Dark Arrays were set up around the perimeter of Yanpo Forest, which outsiders should not enter lightly. Fa Xiaoyi also paid attention to the Dark Arrays in the forest and found that they had been deliberately sabotaged by someone in advance.
Who exactly intended to undermine the national fate of Shang Kingdom, Fa Xiaoyi pinched his brow and was about to call a beautiful maid over to relieve his muscles when he heard that Yue Jinghua had come to visit.
Upon hearing Yue Jinghua’s name, Fa Xiaoyi subconsciously felt his buttocks swell inexplicably, he grunted moodily and said in a deep voice, "Let her in."
As the Prince of Shangguo, Fa Xiaoyi, even without real power in the court, was adept at business and had accumulated considerable wealth by leveraging the richness of Shang Kingdom.
The Prince Mansion was nearly extravagant, and as Yue Jinghua walked along, she felt the rockeries, bonsais, terraces, and pavilions within the Prince Mansion were exquisitely beautiful, each no less luxurious than that of the King of Shang.
It was as if Fa Xiaoyun was blinded by lard, and being forced to abdicate in a coup was only a matter of time.
"Prince Fa, hope you are well," Yue Jinghua laughed dryly a few times. The rumors outside were one thing, but the truth of Cuiwei Lake was another matter. As for those who knew the truth, there were only Yue Jinghua, Fa Xiaoyi, Xie Yu, Hongling, and others.
"Thanks to Miss Yue’s concern, this Prince is ’very well’," Fa Xiaoyi had a hypocritical smile on his face, but his stiff movements, and the lower half of his body that tensed unconsciously as soon as he saw Yue Jinghua, almost made Yue Jinghua laugh out loud.
Her eyes craftily swept around, taking in Fa Xiaoyi’s courtyard, "I’ve heard that the Prince’s residence is filled with splendid flowers. Seeing it today, it is indeed as impressive as the rumors suggest, tsk tsk, look at how beautifully these little daisies bloom, such perfection."
"Yue Jinghua, you’ve got some nerve, such cunning schemes. I’ve really underestimated you," Fa Xiaoyi became angry, slamming his palm down and breaking off a corner of the stone table beneath him.
