Chapter 553: His Highness’ Two-Facedness Was Everywhere

It was noon when the eminent monks entered the palace.

The three main elders were in the lineup as well. They said it was to cease the souls of the deceased and there was evil that was present in Suqing Palace.

“Elder…” As they entered, a guard who was in charge of receiving the carriage went up to Elder Wu and whispered lowly.

Others may not be able to overhear it but Elder Wu heard everything clearly. He nodded with a smile before pacing to a shadowy area and his gaze was glimmering with a chilling poisonous intent.

He wanted to see how Baili Jia Jue was going to resolve this!

For so many years, the Elder Compound had constantly been restrained.

They would have to take into account Baili Jia Jue’s retaliation every single time they acted.

Now they have a huge opportunity in front of them and they should just get rid of him while the Emperor is in a dilemma!

He wanted to see how is he going to bite after losing his position as a prince!

“Elder? Elder Wu?” Eunuch Gao called out thrice. He was at the palace gate, receiving guests on behalf of the Emperor.

It was not until the third call when Elder Wu regained himself and beamed composedly, “Eunuch Gao, has everyone gathered? Not a single person is to be left out as the masters said that the inauspicious influence in the air of the imperial palace is too great as of late. If they do not get rid of the calamitous air from the imperial concubines and princes, they are afraid that they will find it difficult to rest.”

“Rest assured, elder. His Majesty had spoken and naturally, all the imperial concubines and princes will be present.” Eunuch Gao delightedly replied, “But there is still some time before the event. I’m certain that we only have to wait for a short time before the palace becomes lively.”

Elder Wu nodded and his lips curled upwards as he lowered his gaze, thinking to himself in a twisted manner.

Helian Wei Wei, I’m afraid that this time, you will have to stay obediently in this palace to be tortured by the mantra for an hour no matter how capable you are.

Huh, I think you will show your true colors in less than an hour!

The sanctification orchestra gradually began to play, unlike before, the music focused on tranquility and harmony.

Baili Jia Jue gently twiddled with the jade ornament that was hanging on his waist. His eyes were fixated at the clear cloudless sky and his handsome side profile was as cold as ice, “Finished investigating?”

“I finished the investigation.” Shadow’s voice was low, “It was the Elder Compound’s idea, but…”

Baili Jia Jue raised his eyebrow, “But what?”

“I don’t understand, how are they going to launch the attack?” Shadow’s head was very low. At a glance, the imperial palace consisted of numerous palaces with various sizes which would make it difficult for them to charge in.

Baili Jia Jue smiled carelessly, “How are they going to attack? Of course there is going to be teamwork between the inner and outer side, or else it would be difficult to convince the Emperor that I planned a rebellion.”

“This…” Shadow did not know what to say. From ancient times, no parents would harm their children but it was unavoidable in the royal family.

Baili Jia Jue let down the jade ornament that he was toying with and quietly shifted his gaze. He was veiled in an artful and manipulative air, “As long as Chaoyang Palace’s gate is not breached, all of you don’t have to show yourself no matter what means they use, just let them have their fun killing. Since the Emperor doesn’t want me to make a move, then all of you don’t have to be so uptight about protecting the Emperor. The Emperor had been senile for some time now, so this should be a good chance to let the Emperor witnes some bloodshed and give his brain a wake up call.”

After hearing what Baili Jia Jue had to say, Shadow finally understood His Highness’s intention.

As long as they stayed in the dark, no matter how many people were killed, the death count would either belong to the rebel army or the Emperor’s imperial guards.

No damage whatsoever would go to them.

The rebel army would have been significantly weakened by the time they were to reach Chaoyang Palace’s gate.

After that, they would appear and with a little bit of cleaning up, they would have resolved this problem.

It was worth mentioning that His Highness’s strategy this time round was very sly!

Those elders would surely not expect His Highness to come up with this plan!

Besides, it would be the city protection army that would be dispatched, so the others would not have a valid reason to penalize them for sending out troops…

“Your Highness!” From a distance, Qing Zhan hurriedly came in, forgetting to even greet the prince, “There was a message from Chaoyang Palace, saying that everyone in the harem is obligated to participate in the eminent monks’ chanting session, even the princes and princess consorts are required to join. The Princess Consort was escorted to Chaoyang Palace but she didn’t seem to be pleased about this. I was worried that something might go wrong so I came to notify Your Highness without authorization. Your Highness, please…”

Qing Zhan had yet to finish when she felt a gush of cold wind skimm through her face. When she looked up, Baili Jia Jue was already gone from her sight.

In the flutter of his long sleeves, Baili Jia Jue slowly clenched his fists. His deep pools of eyes that was rarely enraged were now oozing with daunting frost.

How dare they!

Swoosh!

Baili Jia Jue’s tall silhouette was swift like the shadows as he extended his hand and brushed away the light leathered cloak that his servant had brought to him.

Impatience was not present on his features, yet those eyes were flickering with an unusual glow.

In the dark, something fell. The locks of hair on the front of his hairline were long enough to cover his eyes, hiding away the deep magic from prying eyes. In spite of that, an elegant and bloodthirsty smile bloomed on his sickly pale yet handsome face…

If any harm came to his beloved prey, he would make all of them regret for being born!

“Elder Ming? Elder Ming, are you alright?” Elder Wu furrowed his thick eyebrows in question as he gazed at his colleague who was shivering beside him.

The elder whose surname was Ming desperately tried to control the turmoil that was happening in his blood. He withdrew his arms, covering his black nails under his long sleeves and gave a fake laugh, “Nothing, I’m just not feeling well recently so I can’t withstand the wind.” What was that unrest just now?

Elder Ming’s face was unsettled as he lowered his eyes, covering the red glow in them.

Elder Wu did not notice this abnormality, he merely responded, “Elder Ming should take care of yourself.” Upon finishing that, he turned his gaze to Elder Zhan.

Elder Zhan nodded at him discreetly, signaling him to look at Helian Wei Wei who had just walked in.

Elder Wu smiled, his voice was not loud but it was enough for everyone to hear him, “Why was the Third Princess Consort unwilling to come to the Great Hall? Was there anything that you were hiding from the eminent monks?”

“You, shut up!” Before Helian Wei Wei could open her mouth, Little Seven coolly retorted Elder Wu.

To one’s surprise, the innate forcefulness made Elder Wu subconsciously take a step back!

“What could I possibly hide from the eminent monks?” Helian Wei Wei held Little Seven’s hand and with a smile, she asked rhetorically, “Yet, it’s strange for Elder Wu to make such arrangements. The recent events that had happened in the palace was beside the river but Elder Wu did not summon the eminent monks to hold the chanting session near the river but asked us all to gather in the Great Hall. What is Elder Wu trying to achieve with this?”

Elder Wu was good at masking his thoughts and after hearing what Helian Wei Wei said, his face remained unchanged. The white long robes looked fair and just on him as usual, “The eminent monks were wise to hold a chanting session in Chaoyang Palace. This is to help the imperial concubines and princes to clear away any bad luck attached in order to prevent any evil from entering the harem. It is just a chanting session with the eminent monks for an hour yet it’s strange that the Princess Consort seemed very much against it. That was why I was curious. Could it be that the Princess Consort was really hiding something from the others?”
