Chapter 1381: Did You Plan This?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

However, should a prince like Zhan Beixiao ascend the throne, it would be the greatest catastrophe for Zhanling Empire. No one knew what the Zhanling Emperor was thinking.

After thinking for a long time, she could not help but look up at Zhan Beiye and ask, “No, what is Zhan Beixiao thinking? Conferring the title of consort to women he met outside?”

Even Prince Xiao could not appoint just anyone as his principal consort; his father, the Zhanling Emperor, had to issue the decree.

But now he wanted to make a woman he met outside his secondary consort?

How defiant!

His intention to usurp the throne was so obvious. Even if Zhan Beixiao did not think so, he was already behaving as if he were the Emperor of Zhanling Empire.

If the Zhanling Emperor still protected him when he returned, there would be nothing to say.

“This person is really bold!”

“Of course.” Zhan Beiye wanted to laugh too.

He sympathized with the Zhanling Emperor when he thought about how a few women caused Zhan Beixiao’s defeat.

However, the Zhanling Emperor liked his hopelessly stupid son, so there was no need for sympathy. He did, however, sympathize with the people of Zhanling Empire.

They would have a hard time with an emperor like him in the future.

Qian Jiyun looked at Zhan Beiye calmly and asked, “Did you plan this?” An Jiuyue looked at Zhan Beiye in disbelief.

Did Zhan Beiye really plan this? Did he send someone to find those women to set Zhan Beixiao up?

“No. It really wasn’t me this time.”

Zhan Beiye shook his head. He wanted to do something like this. After all, he knew Zhan Beixiao’s preferences.

However, someone else did it for him before he could do anything. It saved him a lot of trouble.

“Zhan Beixiao’s maternal grandfather is Marquess Ning. He has many old enemies. With them around, I don’t have to do anything. They’ll do many things for me,” he said.

Just like before, he had only sent someone to intercept Zhan Beixiao and beat him up. However, by the time Zhan Beixiao returned to the Imperial City, he was severely injured. He had been beaten up several times.

These were all additional things that others did to Zhan Beixiao.

Although everything was done in his name, he was quite pleased. After all, the enemy of an enemy was a friend. Even if they were merely friends hiding in the shadows, they could still be used when necessary.

“You said Marquess Ning wants to come here?” Qian Jiyun asked.

“He doesn’t just want to, he’s already on his way,” Zhan Beiye said and looked at Qian Jiyun seriously.

“He’s coming here with his people and even sent someone ahead of him. According to the information I received, he thinks I have someone backing me.”

These words were meant for Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue.

He had only been able to remove Ming Fucheng so quickly because of their help. He had even conquered 10 cities in Zhanling Empire in a row.

Of course, Marquess Ning did not believe that he was that capable. Most importantly, there were those Cloud-Breaking Pills. Even the Zhanling Emperor’s medicine refiners would not dare to refine this pill.

Hence, Marquess Ning’s suspicions were to be expected. “He’s investigating us?” An Jiuyue pointed at her nose and asked..
