Chapter 175 All in the Game
Just as Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Shen Shan was hurriedly rushing to the Prime Minister's Residence in a sedan chair, in a remote small building in the capital, the silver-haired girl Su Yue and the dwarf got together again, but this time the middle-aged man was not there.
Su Yue's face was filled with rage, she put her hands on her hips and complained loudly: "Sloan, that bastard. We spent so many resources to send him to the palace, but he didn't accomplish anything! He performed very hard on the stage, spitting fire and blood, and he vomited himself to death on the stage!" She was so angry that she gritted her teeth, and her silver hair seemed to be stimulated, floating slightly, as if there was an electric current running through it.
The dwarf said cautiously, "Miss Su Yue, calm down. Sloan didn't mean it."
"It wasn't intentional?" Su Yue suddenly turned her head and glared at the dwarf. "Something went wrong with the circulation of Qi and blood at that time? Humph! The root of everything is that Shen Feng suddenly called the emperor away, causing Sloan's mind to be in chaos, resulting in problems with the circulation of internal energy. But can this be an excuse? This mission has completely failed because of this series of changes!"
She grew angrier as she spoke, her chest heaving violently. "First, I fought two Hu concubines and nearly fell to them. Then, I was forced back by Shen Feng's finger sword. If I hadn't escaped quickly, I might have died in the palace! Now, my identity can no longer be hidden. The news that Yuexiang Tower has been raided is now spreading throughout the capital. Others don't understand the inside story, but I know in my heart that the Jinyiwei are looking for me!"
Su Yue paced back and forth, eyes filled with anger and unwillingness: "Whenever I think of this, I wish I could cut Shen Feng into pieces! Everything we carefully planned has been destroyed in an instant! What should we do next? Are we going to hide from place to place like this forever?"
The dwarf was silent for a moment, then said, "Miss Su Yue, don't worry. We still have a chance. As long as we make new plans..."
"Replan?" Su Yue interrupted him, "How easy is that! This failure has caused us heavy losses. It will be even more difficult to turn things around!"
The small building was filled with Su Yue's anger and helplessness, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.
At this time, Su Yue asked the dwarf, "How did your assassination attempt at the Prime Minister's residence go?"
When the dwarf heard this question, his expression became very strange.
Su Yue asked, "What's wrong? Did something go wrong with you?"
The dwarf shook his head and said, "I don't know either."
Su Yue got angry again and said, "Success is success, failure is failure, I don't know what that means?"
The dwarf said: "I didn't kill Sam when I entered the Prime Minister's Mansion this time, but I killed a person who is more important than Sam!"
"who?"
"Muhanti, the seventh son of Lord Malkhan!"
Hearing this, Su Yue stood up and asked, "Did you really kill Muhanti?"
She looked quite excited. "If Muhanti came with the envoys this time, then he must be planning to serve as a hostage in the capital after establishing diplomatic relations with the Dashun! If we kill him, then the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries will basically be in vain! Moreover, if this news spreads back to the Western Regions, it will definitely trigger changes within the Maerhan Empire. This is extremely beneficial to our grand plan!"
The dwarf said, "Of course I knew that. I saw it clearly at the time. Although Muhanti had disguised himself as an ordinary follower, I could never forget his appearance. This target was more important than Sam, so I didn't hesitate and cut his neck directly. There was no way he could survive a wound like that."
"but……"
Su Yue was extremely anxious and said, "What are you talking about? You're making me so anxious. Can't a grown man speak more directly?"
The dwarf grabbed his hair and said, "But I've been observing the Prime Minister's Mansion these past few days, and everything is still the same, nothing has changed at all!"
"Ah?" Su Yue was stunned.
The dwarf continued, "Ordinarily, something as serious as Muhanti's murder should have caused a lot of panic. Even if the Prime Minister's Office didn't know his identity, Sam certainly knew. But these past few days, I've observed Sam's reactions through my insider, and he seems like nothing happened. He lives a comfortable life every day, with two maids from the Prime Minister's Office waiting on him. He lives a much more comfortable life than I do! I really can't figure it out. Did I kill the wrong person? But it was clearly Muhanti."
Su Yue looked at her companion who was almost going crazy, but she calmed down and fell into deep thought.
"Did you kill the wrong person? Maybe Sam is deliberately hiding something, or...what we saw is not the truth."
The dwarf agreed, "Yes, this is too strange. So what should we do next?"
Su Yue bit her lip and said with a firm look in her eyes, "Keep investigating and make sure to find out the truth. No matter what, this operation cannot be in vain."
However, Shen Shan rode in a sedan chair at full speed all the way to the Prime Minister's residence. After the doorman informed him, he soon met Prime Minister Wang in the study.
When Shen Shan saw Prime Minister Wang, he was like a drowning man seeing a life-saving straw. He rushed over, knelt down and hugged Prime Minister Wang's legs, tears streaming down his face, crying miserably.
"Master Prime Minister, please save me, please save me!"
Prime Minister Wang tried to pull his legs away twice, but couldn't. His face was filled with helplessness and anger. He sighed heavily and said, "This matter has come to this. What can I do?"
Shen Shan continued to plead, "Prime Minister, you are so powerful, there must be a way. This is all the evil plot of that villain Xu Feng! He wants to clip your wings, Prime Minister. We must not let him succeed!"
Prime Minister Wang rubbed his brows, his face looking terribly gloomy.
I have been having really bad luck recently. First, my good-for-nothing son got into trouble, and then King Markhan's hostage died in the mansion.
He planned to send two Hu concubines who he had raised since childhood into the palace to assassinate the emperor so that he could frame Xu Feng, but there is no news about this plan now.
Several days have passed since Concubine Yi's wedding day, and those two Hu girls have disappeared without a trace, with no news at all.
Prime Minister Wang was also very nervous and uneasy!
What was even more unexpected was that something happened in Yuexianglou, and Shen Shan was implicated!
This is really a case of trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing a handful of rice!
Prime Minister Wang paced back and forth, his eyes filled with anxiety and thought.
After he became prime minister, he stood in the court for many years and experienced countless storms, but this time he was really confused and couldn't figure out the situation.
Things happened one after another, and he was really caught off guard.
But the more this happens, the more calm we need to be.
Shen Shan raised his tear-stained face and looked eagerly at Prime Minister Wang: "Prime Minister, you must save me. As long as I can survive this disaster, I, Shen Shan, will serve you like a slave from now on without any complaints."
Prime Minister Wang stopped and looked down at Shen Shan. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Get up first. It's really embarrassing to be in such a mess. We need to think about this matter carefully and see if we can find a way out."
