Chapter 1877: The Guilty Prince Ping
Yuwen Xuhong laughed coldly,” Hmph, from the moment you agreed to cooperate with this prince, we were tied to the same boat. So, do you think that if you walk away now, you’ll be fine? You must be dreaming!”
At this point, he paused for a moment. His eyes were filled with anger as he said sternly,” If Lin Yuelan and Yuwen Yanyu find out that this matter is related to me, then, Pavilion Master, you will definitely not be able to get away!”
The Yama Pavilion Master frowned and asked,” So, you mean that after you are caught, you will sell me out, right?”
Yuwen Xuhong didn’t nod or shake his head, but his meaning was clear. It was exactly what he meant.
The two holes on the Yama Pavilion Master’s mask shone with a sharp light. Then, a sharp sword was placed on Yuwen Xuhong’s neck, pointing at the vital part of his neck. He said coldly,” Your Royal Highness, do you believe that I will end you now? If you can’t speak, no one will know about the deal between us, so my Yama Pavilion will also be safe and sound!”
Yuwen Xuhong’s face turned pale, and his expression was filled with fear. He stared at the sharp blade from the corner of his eye and stammered, “Pavilion Master, you… Don’t be rash… Let’s talk things out!”
The Yama Pavilion Master sneered,” Humph, don’t be rash. I can do anything to protect myself. Your Highness, do you think I should kill you now?”
As he said this, the sword in his hand moved a little closer. If the sword moved a little closer, it might pierce Yuwen Xuhong’s throat.
Yuwen Xuhong’s face was pale, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He smiled stiffly and said,” Pavilion Master, we can discuss this! I… I was joking!”
Yama Pavilion Master said coldly,” Your Highness, do you think I’m a fool? If I let you off today, then when you turn around, you will burn the bridge after crossing the river and report this lord in the blink of an eye. Then won’t Yama Pavilion be waiting to be destroyed? Therefore, I still feel that killing you is safer!”
When Yuwen Xuhong heard this, he was extremely shocked. The panic and uneasiness in his heart continued to expand. He stuttered, “Pavilion Master, I… I’m… I was just joking.”
The pavilion master sneered.” Joke? Your Highness, I never joke! Don’t move.”
Seeing that Yuwen Xuhong’s head was about to retreat from the sword, the pavilion master warned,” Swords have no eyes. His Royal Highness might accidentally get hurt. At that time, I won’t be held accountable!”
Yuwen Xuhong’s face was pale as he smiled stiffly,” Pavilion Master, you’re too serious!” Then, he thought for a while and said,” Pavilion Master, do you know Lin Yuelan?”
The pavilion master was puzzled.” Lin Yuelan? Princess Guguo? I’m not familiar with her, so how do I know her? I heard that she’s an absolute beauty.” However, he snorted coldly in his heart, ‘I’m very familiar with Lin Yuelan.’
When Yuwen Xuhong heard this, he tightened his heart and said carefully and sternly,” Pavilion Master, do you know about the viper beauty? That Lin Yuelan is such a viper. Although she is young, she is actually shrewd and scheming. This time, the person we arranged to frame her changed sides at the last minute and found another important clue on the jade pendant. Therefore, with her shrewdness and methods, she will definitely find me very quickly.”
At this point, he raised his eyes slightly and glanced at the Yama Pavilion Master before continuing,” Furthermore, with her elusive methods, even if I don’t report her, she might soon find out about you, Pavilion Master!”
The pavilion master heard his words and obviously didn’t believe it. He asked suspiciously,” Is Lin Yuelan really that powerful?”
Yuwen Xuhong nodded.” That’s right. She is such a powerful person. I believe you have heard that my Third Imperial Uncle, the Zhou Noble Consort Zhou, and her party failed in their rebellion. Consort Liu De’s daughter, Yuwen Ling, was forced to marry far away, and the Duke’s estate collapsed. All of this was her doing. At the same time, she is also a ruthless and cold-blooded woman. She did not even care about her parents and relatives and personally sent them to hell because those people had done something to hurt her.”
As he said this, he stared at the sharp sword on his neck again. He swallowed and continued,” This time, it concerns her innocence, honour, and future life and death. No matter what, she will investigate the matter thoroughly. The pavilion master has promised to cooperate with me, as long as she finds out about me, even if I don’t report it, I believe she must have some means to know that Yama Pavilion is involved in this matter! If Imperial Grandfather still trusts her, then Yama Pavilion will not be able to escape the fate of being exterminated!”
