The Great Queen Mau Lewat
Chapter 423 Side story (A Fei the princess of Jin)
A Guang received the lanterns given by his wife. His thin hands rubbed the thing. His gentle facial expression instantly turned sad. For months he had not seen his family. Clearly visible longing in both netraannya.
' Father, mother, A Feng, A Fei. How are you guys doing? ' Monologue A Guang in heart.
Really, he misses them a lot.
" Ahem.. " A deheman made A Guang and Xuxiang turn their heads. A man with a noble aura stood not far away from them.
He walked over, his hand holding some of the food he bought before coming.
" How are you, Your Majesty? " See A Guang.
A Guang smiled faintly, "It's still the same as yesterday. "
" It's okay. I'm sure you'll be well soon. I'm sorry Your Majesty, because I haven't been able to bring you back to the Jin Empire. I hope you understand. I'm doing this for your safety too. "
" I understand crown prince Nan. You've brought me back from the dead alone, it's been a great help. I'm grateful to you. "
The man who was currently talking to A Guang was Crown Prince Nan. He deliberately traveled to the Shu Empire to meet A Guang who was currently in one of the border towns. Precisely in a city where it once belonged to the Kingdom of Wei. But because now the Kingdom was joined with the Jin Empire, the city became one of the cities of the Jin state.
" No need to thank Your Majesty. I did this for the people of Nan. I don't want a war to destroy my country. If saving you could save thousands of lives then I'd be ready to do it. It doesn't matter if my dad finds out. "
" What is your motive for saving me? there's no way it's just for the reason you mentioned, right? " A Guang still could not believe it.
Crown Prince Nan chuckled. " I just want the Jin Empire to invade Nan country and force the current Emperor to abdicate. If you need to, you can kill the old man. "
Truly without burden Crown Prince Nan was expecting the death of his father. If Emperor Nan knew he might vomit blood from heartache. How not, the seed that he had planted was expecting his death.
" Are you going to occupy the throne after that? " The real question is the obvious answer. But A Guang still wanted to ask him.
" It looks very clear. " Crown Prince Nan replied without any hesitation in no way intending to hide it.
" I did indeed wish to be able to sit on the throne and lead the Nan Empire. I want to make our Empire as prosperous and powerful as it once was. Does that sound like my wish's bullshit? "
A Guang shook his head. " no. That makes sense. "
Then A Guang asked again. " Did my family know I was alive? "
The Crown Prince's expression turned unpleasant. He shook his head, feeling guilty for keeping secret about A Guang's whereabouts. But at least he brought Xuxiang to accompany him.
So indirectly only Xuxiang just found out.
If only then Crown Prince Nan's subordinates hadn't kidnapped him. Maybe until now he will not know about his life.
Either Xuxiang had to thank or curse the man for daring to kidnap him.
" I'm sorry, at first I wanted to tell them. But when I brought you from the grave you were in critical condition. Even if I can offer you your poison. But by then some of your vital organs were starting to get affected by the poison. I'm afraid you won't live long, so I can only wait for you to wake up from a coma and be healthy again. Only then will I tell them. "
Jingu was actually on the Crown Prince's side, he was just pretending to watch over his father's men who had poisoned A Guang back then.
As everyone's attention waned, Jingu gave A Guang an antidote to the poison as well as a medicine capable of weakening the heartbeat. Even when the healer checked the pulse, it would not be felt and would make people think that A Guang was gone.
It was only when he was buried, that Jingu dug back A Guang's grave and took him away.
If it was someone else would probably consider Crown Prince Nan as a savior. But not with A Guang, he only felt this man in front of him was extremely cunning. He used his father's hand to make enmity with the Jin Empire and saved A Guang as a negotiation tool to take him to the throne.
Being hostile to this man would be very troublesome, he thought.
" But you calm down. Based on the report I received, the Jin Empire is preparing for an attack. When that time comes I will bring you back to the Sima family. "
From quite a distance away, Sima Feng's subordinates rubbed his eyes several times. He was afraid that what he saw right now was a ghost. What else is it at midnight.
Anyone would think so when the person who is rumored to have died actually looks in the middle of chatting. If he does not know that his interlocutor is human, maybe he will think he is watching the conversation of fellow ghosts.
" Is what I see in my eyes right? that's the first prince. He's still alive.. " Monolognya. It was so surprised him.
" I must report it to His Highness the Crown Prince immediately. "
