Chapter 335: Was it a Confession or a Threat?

What Fang Shuoyang had done in his mansion was spread soon.

Therefore, within one day, almost all the upper personnel in the Imperial City knew that Fang Shuoyang dealt with all the “different voices” in his mansion.

Many people speculated on the reasons for his blatant behavior.

Some thought that he was taking this chance to purge the spies in his mansion.

Others thought that he was just afraid of death.

The fact was no one would believe that what happened to the Second Prince this time had nothing to do with people at the banquet that day.

No matter how the assassin poisoned the Second Prince.

At least the assassin hadn’t approached him alone, right?

Therefore, there must be an accomplice of the assassin at the banquet that day.

Otherwise, how could the Second Prince die so “unclearly”?

After all, the assassin was still out there!

But they didn’t even know how the Second Prince was poisoned!

However, even though everyone believed that someone should have done that at the banquet that night, so what? If they believed so, did they have any evidence?

No!

Did any of them want to investigate the case thoroughly?

That’s perfect! The Crown Prince was there at that night! So were the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince!

They wanted a thorough investigation?! How?!

Therefore, these four princes might be afraid of death as well, so they eliminated the spies in their mansions right after the incident.

After all, no one wanted to die in the hands of the people in their own mansions!

At the same time, some people believed the Fourth Prince was very smart.

Now that the Second Prince was assassinated and died, it was kind of… natural and reasonable that he took advantage of the situation to purge people sent to his mansion by others.

It could be said that the timing was perfect.

Therefore, some people thought that the Fourth Prince was very smart.

Moreover, from this day on, many people had also “taken advantage of the situation” to deal with the spies in their mansions.

It was fair to say that Fang Shuoyang started this. But that was the consequence that Fang Shuoyang and the others did not expect to see…

A few days later, Long’s arrangements went a little smoother.

There were more people desiring to work with them.

Also, they were low-ranking officials.

However, these people could also be regarded as another kind of men in “powerful positions.”

Long and the others finally infiltrated Eastern Darkness in their own way.

No, to be precise, they made it in the Imperial City of Eastern Darkness!

The army, of course, was not so easy to infiltrate.

Except for Senior General Wu, they had no other people to work with.

However, they were doing this with risks, so Senior General Wu was enough for them.

In particular, the Wu family had been operating in Eastern Darkness for a long time, which showed its particular strength and influence.

If it hadn’t been for Lord Zhou of Eastern Darkness, the Wu family would definitely have been better than it was now!

At night. Long and Shi went back to their room.

“Unexpectedly, we cleaned up the spies here, but others followed us.”

Shi said indifferently, “Whose mansion is lack of spies? With one person leading the trend, of course these people would take this opportunity to deal with them all!”

Long pulled Shi and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Shi turned to look at him. “What’s in your mind?”

Long smiled slightly at him. “The Worship Ceremony in West Mountain is getting closer… so I’m thinking that, before that day, we should cause chaos for them once again no matter what.”

Shi looked at him after hearing this. “Well, chaos is good, but there must also be good opportunities, like the Second Prince’s Banquet, gathering all these powerful people together. But it’s not easy to get such a chance.”

Long touched his chin. “Well, that’s true. Qingzhou, what about…?”

“Huh?” Shi looked at him.

“If there is no chance, then maybe we can create one! As for the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, well, the Crown Prince is not easy to be targeted for the time being, but the Third Prince… if he follows the Second Prince, we will be in a better situation.”

Shi said lightly, “Well… Since the three of them dare to use the lives of our Tianlong Dynasty to compete for things they wanted, in return, they should pay the price.”

Especially the poison they made in Tianlong Dynasty killed numerous people.

Anyone like them deserved to die!

What’s more, those people were also obstacles to Fang Shuoyang’s accession to the throne!

Long smiled. “Sure. What we are doing now is also risking our lives… However, because of this, we need a better approach for our next plan.”

Shi looked at Long. “Okay, then I can count on you to figure that out.”

Long blinked when he heard this. “Ah, you want me to rack my brain alone? What about you?”

Shi blinked. “Me? I don’t think I’m as good as you on this. Besides, I want to sleep.”

“You want to sleep?” Long also blinked after Shi, “Well, sleep…”

Suddenly, Long smiled unkindly.

Shi paused, realizing what Long was thinking when he smiled like that all of a sudden.

As he expected, Long rushed over with a smile.

Being unprepared, Shi was pressed on the bed entirely.

Long kissed Shi’s lips in the next moment.

Shi only struggled a little and then allowed him to continue.

Long deepened the kiss. When the temperature between them rose, Long removed all the clothes on Shi neatly.

“Qingzhou.” Long whispered his name, and then kissed his nose.

Shi looked at him.

Long then kissed his eyes. “Qingzhou, I found that after you came here, the blood-red color of your eyes seemed to fade a little.”

Shi paused when he heard these, then he said slowly, “Really?”

“Huh? Haven’t you discovered it yourself?” Long asked.

Shi shook his head. “No, I have films on my eyes, and I only take them off when I’m with you.”

“I’m saying that the color of your eyes is the same as ours now. Also, if we guard at night, we don’t need to get along with others, so you don’t have to put them on. Although your films are specially made, I’m afraid that they are not good for your eyes if you keep using them for a long time.”

“It’s okay.” Shi shook his head. “Liu Suifeng told me this has no effect on my eyes.”

“Fine.” Long trusted Liu Suifeng as a doctor at least.

Shi looked at him, and said lightly, “Are you sure you have to talk about my eyes right now?”

“Huh?” Long blinked, feeling the changes of himself and Shi immediately.

Then he smiled. “Well, I see… I’m a fool.”

After that, putting aside the eyes thing, Long deeply kissed Shi’s… lips.

After about an hour, Long ended their romantic and wonderful time, and fetched water for Shi to clean.

Long always liked to do it himself every time they had a good time together.

He couldn’t bear to leave it to others! He was very domineering, alright? Of course he didn’t want his man to be seen by others!

After Long cleaned Shi, he was about to sleep with him, but the door was knocked on.

Long’s face was slightly gloomy.

He didn’t want to disturb Shi, because Shi was already a little groggy.

So Long got out of bed hurriedly.

Opening the door, he found the one standing outside the door… Well, it turned out to be Xu You!

“Xu You?” Long pulled Xu You in and asked him to lower his voice. “What’s the matter? Your brother Shi is asleep. Keep your voice down.”

Xu You pursed his lips. “Brother Long, I… look at this.”

Under the moonlight, Long figured out the words on the note clearly, and was stunned. “This is… Is this a confession to you?”

Xu You glared at him upon hearing this.

Long shrugged. “This is indeed a confession note, and you are asked to meet the one outside!”

Xu You sighed. “Don’t you see the threat?”

Long took a closer look. “I see. If you don’t come, your secret will be exposed. Xu You, what secret do you have?”

Xu You frowned. “I don’t have any other secrets except for my identity.”

Long paused. “You mean that you are from Tianlong Dynasty?”

“Ah.”

Long was confused, “I don’t think that’s a big deal. Actually, the royal family of Eastern Darkness knows that Fang Shuoyang comes from Tianlong Dynasty.”

“Even so, they don’t know the relationship between Fang Shuoyang and the royal family of Tianlong Dynasty.”

Long understood. “So, you are suspecting that they know you are my sworn brother?”

“Otherwise I can’t think of anything else to make me be threatened.”

Long touched his chin, “It’s said you should meet him at tomorrow night. If so, I suggest Shi to go there with you. If there is any trouble, it would be best to solve it at that spot.”

When Long said that, he also thought of Liu Suifeng.

That guy happened to invent a new medicine while at the border.

It’s also a good thing if they could run into a research object!

Xu You finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Have you told Fang Shuoyang about this?”

Xu You paused and shook his head. “Not yet.”

“Huh?” Long blinked. “Why don’t you tell him?”

Xu You said awkwardly, “I’m still in the mood against him.”

“What? You are still arguing?” Long smiled.

Xu You stared at Long without speaking.

Long smiled and rubbed Xu You’s head. “It’s a big thing. Don’t be negligent. You still have to tell him.”

Xu You nodded reluctantly. “Okay, I get it.”

Long patted him on the shoulder. “Hey, don’t come over to find me at night for such unimportant things. You are lucky that you come here a little late. Otherwise, you will definitely be kicked out.”

Xu You darkened his face when he heard this, gritting his teeth, “Brother, don’t you feel awkward to blame me? Does Brother Shi know this?”

“Why should I be awkward?” Long looked at him in surprise. “What I said is true, and I just said it for your own good!” Long was very “sad” that Xu You didn’t understand him.

Xu You didn’t have any chance to refute him.

Long then patted him on the shoulder again. “Okay, you should go now. Just give Shi and me some space, will you?”

Xu You was speechless.

Then, Long “sent” him out.

Later, he returned to the big bed, sat down on the bed, and then lay down carefully.

His movements were very light, and Shi wasn’t woken up, either.

Long was very satisfied, and didn’t worry much about what Xu You had just told him. Anyway, they would just deal with whatever they would encounter!

Nothing else needed to be worried about!
