Capital.

Peaceful Mind Studio.

It has been two days since Old Xu’s grain shop was sealed off, and Old Zhang’s previously gleeful expression has now turned gloomy.

“Damn the Prince of Ping’an’s Mansion…”contemporary romance

Old Zhang cursed quietly in the steamed bun shop, but there was no way that Liang Sheng’s ears wouldn’t hear it. As for this, Liang Sheng could only shake his head and wry smile.

He had previously thought it was just a small upheaval, but later more and more wealthy households in the north of the city were implicated, so the streets had become deserted.

Because of this, Old Zhang became upset, as his steamed bun shop’s business had plummeted without the foot traffic.

At this time, Liang Sheng was sitting in a lounge chair with a book in hand, but his thoughts gradually drifted away. The unrest probably wouldn’t calm down in a short period of time.

During this free time, Liang Sheng would go to the teahouse on the neighboring street for tea, and then return to the bookstore to read.

In this leisurely life, Liang Sheng seemed not to care about the situation in the capital, but he had already thoroughly understood the overall framework.

The former Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Xiao Rang, had not successfully been promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Rituals in the past twenty years, which caused him to grow older and retire.

However, before the emperor’s decree was passed to keep him in service and reject his request for retirement, the Imperial Counselor Platform had officials denouncing Xiao Rang for accepting bribes and forming cliques for personal gain.

There were thirteen charges in total, and it was originally thought to be just a quarrel. However, the situation developed rapidly and shocked the entire government and public.

That night, Xiao Rang’s family was thrown into the Sky Prison, and even the Prince of Ping’an’s Mansion personally put the Side Consort of King Pingan under house arrest, not allowing anyone to visit.

These things happened in the blink of an eye, and many people couldn’t keep up with the sudden turn of events. Faced with this situation, how could those crafty old bureaucrats in the capital not understand what was going on?

One could only say that Prince Ye An of Ping’an had been enduring for twenty years, and he finally drew his killing sword at this moment. One strike to kill, perhaps Xiao Rang would never be able to walk out of the Sky Prison in his life.

As for why Prince Ping’an was so resolute, perhaps he too had already made his final decision in his heart. After his hundred years, Ping’an’s title would probably fall on Ye An.

And Ye An’s actions were extremely cautious, clean, and efficient, constantly deploying various methods to prevent Xiao Rang from having any chance of turning the tables.

Poor Old Xu was a collateral victim. His sister was originally a concubine of the Xiao family, and Ye An even punished the merchants. There seemed to be no chance for Xiao Rang to make a comeback.

With Liang Sheng’s innate cultivation level, even the most secret conversations in teahouses and taverns reached his ears, so he knew more clearly than most officials what was going on.

At this time, when Old Zhang was hiding in the steamed bun shop cursing the Prince of Ping’an’s Mansion, he just smiled faintly. He guessed in his heart that once Xiao Rang drank poison and died, this matter would come to an end.

After all, Xiao Rang had been an official highest at the rank of Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Ye An would of course leave him that face. After all, this was the unspoken rule of the whole bureaucracy.

While it might be possible to eliminate them all for good measure, such high-ranking officials could not be dragged to the vegetable market like commoners and beheaded.

Liang Sheng didn’t find it strange that Ye An held such an advantage in his heart, because as long as Xuan Kong was there, the position of Prince Ye An would be as stable as Mount Tai.

As long as it didn’t involve rebellion and plotting against the country, an Innate Master could make most people hesitate to offend him easily.

At this time, it was natural for Prince Ping’an to take down his Side Consort, since he was looking for a smooth transfer of the prince’s position. In this way, it would be the greatest protection for her, fulfilling the love between husband and wife.

But things always seem to go awry. Liang Sheng originally didn’t pay attention to this matter anymore, but one day he encountered an unexpected person in the Dusty Garden.

Prince Ye An of Ping’an.

Although Ye An was disguised, how could Liang Sheng not recognize him? But what startled Liang Sheng the most was the person sitting across from Ye An.

This person had an ordinary appearance and was not eye-catching in the crowd. Even Liang Sheng himself would not have remembered his appearance if it weren’t for Ye An’s special attention to him.

It is important to note that Liang Sheng is an Innate Master, and even he could easily overlook the other party, which shows just how extraordinary they are.

What puzzled Liang Sheng the most was the White Lotus mark, which the other party accidentally revealed while drinking wine. This was a sign of someone from the Lifeless Sect.

If word got out that Prince Ye An of Ping’an was meeting with someone from the Lifeless Sect, it would likely create a huge disturbance.

Seeing this, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but prick up his ears. Although the two people spoke very softly, how could they possibly keep it from him?

Dusty Garden.

Inside a private room on the second floor.

At this moment, Ye An’s face was extremely ugly. “Do you know how risky it is for you to ask me to meet with you at this time? Many people in the Capital are watching me right now. What exactly do you want to do?”

However, Chen Sheng, the Right Envoy of the Lifeless Sect, didn’t care about Ye An’s upset expression, and directly poured him a glass of wine.

“Don’t worry, Prince. Didn’t you come out safely? I have already checked that there is no one following you, so it’s not as serious as you think.”

Seeing Chen Sheng’s nonchalant attitude, Ye An became even more annoyed, but he didn’t dare to leave in anger. After all, the other party held the handle on him, so he had to suppress his anger.

At this time, Chen Sheng seemed to feel like he had done something wrong, so he could only apologize repeatedly. “Ok, ok, ok. I was too hasty this time. 1 promise it won’t happen like this again.

However, the matter is indeed urgent this time, so I had no choice but to take a risk and ask you to help me with something.”

Hearing this, Ye An’s expression improved slightly. He picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp, and then asked concisely, “What do you want me to do?”

“One of our elders from the Sect was on a secret mission when he was accidentally caught by the hounds from the Six Fan Gate.

You put Xiao Rang in the Sky Prison, didn’t you? If you go to the Sky Prison to humiliate him, it shouldn’t draw other people’s attention…”

Before he could finish speaking, Ye An interrupted him, “That’s impossible. The Sky Prison is heavily guarded. How could 1 possibly get your Lifeless Sect elder out of there?”

Chen Sheng was not angry when he heard this and still maintained his calm.

“I know it’s unrealistic for you to bring him out, so I just want you to bring out the thing he has with him.”

“Why do you think he’s hiding something that the Six Fan Gate can’t find? And how can he possibly trust me?”

“You don’t need to worry about that. The thing may not be a specific item, but just a sentence.

As for how to gain his trust, it’s very simple. You just need to tell him: ‘Lakeside of Great MingLake, the White Lotus blooms.’

“Lakeside of Great MingLake, the White Lotus blooms?”

Ye An repeated it, and Chen Sheng nodded. Then, after discussing some more details, Ye An didn’t want to stay any longer and prepared to leave.

“Next time, don’t ask me to meet like this so easily. I don’t know how many people are watching me in the Capital right now. Don’t force me to make a desperate move.”

“I understand. We’re all in the same boat, so why would I hurt you? It’s just that the matter is urgent, and I had no choice but to act like this. I promise it won’t happen again.”

Ye An didn’t respond to this, but just kept his face dark and lowered his head as he walked out of the private room. Soon, he left Dusty Garden.

Not too long after, Chen Sheng from the Lifeless Sect also hurriedly left. Thinking about the situation just now, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth, and then also left Dusty Garden, following after him.

Prince Ye An of Ping’an, Lifeless Sect…

Interesting!
