Chapter 489 - Counting is Counting

The Royal Mansion of the Council –

"Lord, the emperor announced that you will enter the palace immediately."

"yes, got it."

In the Feiyun Pavilion, Uncle Liu's eyes were still looking at Zhu Erniu's pretended to be cold with some scrutiny, and his eyes were full of defensiveness.

Coming out of the study, Zhu Erniu directly sat in the sedan chair that had been prepared at the gate of the palace and walked to the palace.

Thinking that he hadn't seen Shangguan Birou for a long time, Zhu Erniu's heart began to be excited and expectant.

Before the sedan chair reached the palace, suddenly, there was a commotion, and the sedan chair turned over several times because it was not too stable, which scared Zhu Erniu in the sedan chair into a cold sweat.

After a while, the sedan chair stopped steadily on the ground, and Zhu Erniu, who was so frightened that his legs were weak, was also on fire at this time, and he opened the sedan curtain and scolded: "What's the matter?!" You ......"

As soon as the words reached his mouth, he was held by a cold sword around his neck.

"Good...... A good man spares his life, a good man spares his life......"

Zhu Erniu was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he knelt straight on the ground, followed by a smell of urine coming from his crotch.

The sword-wielder furrowed his brow slightly, glanced at his pants that had been scared to pee, and the corners of his lips moved slightly.

And in front of Zhu Erniu, there was another person at this time, and his masked face revealed a pair of deep and intimidating cold eyes, looking at him condescendingly, and he was so frightened that he urinated again.

"You...... Who are you? ”

"What do you say?"

The voice of the person in front of him sank, and the familiar voice made the horror in Zhu Erniu's eyes gradually amplify, and the cloth covering his face was slowly taken off, looking at this familiar face that was gradually enlarged, he suddenly fainted with fright.

"This imposter is really not scared, I didn't expect to be able to pretend to be the prince for so long."

The sword on Zhu Erniu's neck was put back, Liu Xiao took off the mask on his face, kicked Zhu Erniu, who had already fainted in fright, and the corners of his mouth were suffocated.

"I'll leave it to you here, and this king will go to the palace first."

"Yes, lord."

At the gate of the palace, the guards guarding the gate were not surprised to see Dongfang Yunlie coming over on a horse alone, and he did not sit in a sedan chair.

In this palace, the prince has always had the privilege of riding a horse into the palace, and the prince occasionally rides a horse, but he has been sitting in a sedan chair for the past two months.

"See the prince."

The guards at the gate of the palace still saluted as usual, Dongfang Yunlie was no different, but the guards guarding the door during this time noticed that the prince was different from the past two months.

It's just that everyone knows that the king of parliament is unfathomable and unpredictable, although sometimes the prince looks a little different, and no one has any doubts.

Entering the palace, Dongfang Yunlie went straight to the imperial study, this time, he wanted to see what Nangong Xiao planned to do to him.

"Lord Wang, you're here."

"Hmm."

"The emperor is waiting for you inside, and the slave will retire first."

During this time, even the chief eunuch felt that there was something strange between the emperor and the prince, the emperor never asked to retreat when he met the prince, since two months ago, the prince came back from Qiyue with troops, and every time the emperor saw the prince, it seemed extremely secret.

Seeing that the chief eunuch and the surrounding subordinates all retreated together, the corners of Dongfang Yunlie's lips were quietly hooked, but he pretended to approach the imperial study as usual.

"Why did you come, when you are addicted to being a prince, do you really think of yourself as a prince?"
