Chapter 1537: 746 Net Empty Life (Third Update)

Xiaojingkong suddenly whispered to her, "Wow! You’re so amazing, you are his... his aunt, does that mean you can order him around?"

The Little Princess looked puzzled, "My nephew is so good, why would I want to order him around?"

Because I want to order him around!

I also want to turn that bad brother-in-law into Xiaoba, and then tease him every day!

Forget it, this plan doesn’t seem feasible for now.

Xiaojingkong asked the Little Princess, "I am catching fireflies, do you want to join me?"

The Little Princess counted on her fingers, "Hmm... I can’t catch them."

Xiaojingkong puffed out her small chest, "No worries, I’ll catch some for you!"

Apart from two guards from the National Master Hall, the king had everyone else cleared out, leaving only himself, Old Master Mu, and the National Master.

Ye Qing stood guard in the corridor.

No one knew what exactly the king had discussed with Old Master Mu, only that people from Duwei Prefecture took away the latter afterward.

"You may leave as well," the National Master told the guards.

The two complied and left the study room.

The National Master looked towards the king, who was at his wit’s end, and asked, "Is Your Majesty worried that Duwei Prefecture won’t find evidence of the Mu Family directing Tong Wu?"

Although Pang Hai’s testimony could confirm that Tong Wu was a staff member of the Mu family, it could not prove that the incident was indeed orchestrated by the Mu Family. Perhaps Tong Wu was bribed by someone else.

The king snorted, "If Wang Xu can’t even obtain a shred of evidence, he might as well resign from his post!"

The National Master poured a cup of tea for the king, "Then why does Your Majesty seem at a loss? Could it be you are pondering over how to deal with the Han Family?"

The crime of the Han Family’s dereliction of duty was inescapable.

The king remained silent.

The National Master said, "Truth be told, Your Majesty has long wished to reclaim the Hei Fengqi from the Han Family and the military power from the Mu Family. Forgive my frankness, but while it is distressing that the Little Princess is suffering, this incident has arrived at an opportune time."

The hand of the National Master holding his tea paused. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}
