Chapter 559: Hiding The Dragon Robe?

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The atmosphere in Chaoyang Hall was getting heavier.

The fighting noise outside the hall was also getting closer.

If it was in the past, the Emperor would have sent the Third Prince to engage the enemies.

But today...

Everyone felt the heavy distrust from the Emperor toward the Third Prince.

All the imperial officials and consorts dared not speak. They could only look down while all sorts of thoughts ran through their minds.

Strictly speaking, judging on the Third Prince's forces, if he really wanted to start a rebellion, he could have done it a long time ago.

How could he left traces behind and let it fall into Elder Wu's hands?

The Emperor must have known this too and because he knew it, hence his actions.

No Emperor would want to keep a prince with a higher reputation than himself.

Therefore for this particular 'act', although Elder Wu was the one who suggested it, the one who truly wanted to seize the chance to take down the Third Prince might be the Emperor himself...

"Elder Wu!" The man who went over for the search returned quickly and there was delight on his face, it seemed like the trip to Jiuchong Hall was worth it!

Elder Wu glanced over Baili Jia Jue, his brows showing delight, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

The man nodded, "When we entered His Highness' study room, the shadow guards were blocking our way at first but we suspected something as they were acting weird, so we barged in. As expected, inside a hidden drawer of the study room, we found a black package that was intentionally hidden!"

Elder Wu indeed ordered his men to wrap the fake dragon robe with black cloth, so that it could stay hidden from Baili Jia Jue's sight. Since the black package was found, it would mean that Baili Jia Jue has met his doom, there was no way for him to make a comeback this time!

"Your Highness, shouldn't you explain what is inside the black package?" Elder Wu's smile was bright, "Your Highness, please don't tell me that you don't know what it is as well."

Baili Jia Jue glanced blankly at the elder while the edge of his mouth seemed to have curled into a sneering smile.

Nangong Lie was a smart person, although he did not know what was the truth behind this whole incident, he knew at first glance that Elder Wu must have did something. As Nangong Lie looked toward Baili Jia Jue, his eyes could not help but show a trace of worry.

He never believed Ah Jue would hide the dragon robe.

He knew better than anyone that with Ah Jue's forces, if he really was impatient, he would have a myriad of ways to seize the throne for himself, why would he hide a dragon robe?

Yet it could not stop others from setting it up against him.

If Ah Jue is deemed guilty of hiding the dragon robe, then...

Nangong Lie furrowed his brows, the wild and bewitching handsome face of his showed a brutal coldness for the first time. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update

The Emperor sat on his dragon throne and coughed vehemently. His eyes glanced over the package that the guards brought over and his chest was boiling, "Good! Ah Jue, you are really my good son!"
