Chapter 1094: Unstable Throne

Xiao Jingyun was furious and locked Mr. Xiao up.

“For the sake of grabbing the throne, you colluded with outsiders and stole the supreme pill.”

Xiao Jingyun thought that Mr. Xiao was to be blamed for this!

Mr. Xiao smiled. “Brother, you’re wrong. I don’t want the supreme pill. I’ve always been content with my lot in the palace, but Qian’er is the girl I like. I won’t let you do anything to her.”

“Who would believe your excuses?” Xiao Jingyun sneered. “If you hadn’t taken down the palace guards, would Prince Zi have escaped so quickly?”

Someone had been hindering them when he and the Archfiend had been chasing Gu Bailu and the others. Who else could it be but Mr. Xiao?

“Brother, you think too highly of me. I am but one person. How can I take down the guards in the palace? They’re all your men.”

“Telling me this is useless. Lu Fenying’s woman invading the underground palace is a capital offense. Letting her go makes you an accomplice!”

Mr. Xiao didn’t defend himself. “If that’s what you think, I have nothing to say.”

Xiao Jingyun locked Mr. Xiao in the dungeon.

Actually, he was doing this because he was afraid that Mr. Xiao would fight him for the throne. Now that he had lost the supreme pill and the Grand Tutor was weak, several noble families were plotting against him.

He had to stabilize the situation first.

He was afraid of Mr. Xiao because the latter’s medical skills were extraordinary, and his alchemy skills were on par with that of the Grand Tutor.

If Xiao Jingyun really wanted to fight for the throne, and recklessly switched out the Grand Tutor for a sword faction, he would lose it.

However, the emperor didn’t dare kill Mr. Xiao, the top doctor in the world. If he really made a move against Mr. Xiao, many people would take the opportunity to make trouble for him.

The Archfiend and Heavenly Palace Cliff were disappointed in him. Now, he could only protect himself.

Xiao Jingyun hated Feng Qingtian and Gu Bailu.

Especially Gu Bailu. If it wasn’t for her uncanny abilities, their plan would have been foolproof.

When he thought this, he also hated Shao Zun to death.

He had to make sure that Shao Zun’s Earthly Residence would never receive business again.

The next day, the Rising Clouds Emperor, as the injured party, announced that the Earthly Residence had reneged on a deal, and warned the world to be cautious.

Su Shenfan was taking Bu Yaolian around Pale Emperor City to arrange for clothes for the baby.

They had to buy the material for their baby’s clothes themselves, and it had to be the best material.

Gu Bailu had opened a silk factory, and kept workers to raise the silkworms and weave the cloth. The material here was carefully produced.

Most of it couldn’t be bought with money.

After leaving the silk factory, Su Shenfan received a letter from his subordinate.

Su Shenfan smiled. “Tell the Rising Clouds Emperor that I didn’t switch sides, but was keeping a promise. We lost the bet after the competition that night, and had to listen to Prince Zi and his wife. Didn’t the emperor also keep his promise, and let someone steal the pill?”

Su Shenfan had learned this move from Gu Bailu.

In any case, because of the bet that night, Rising Clouds couldn’t even release a fart.

Sure enough, the emperor’s face turned green when he received the reply.

He had always felt that Su Shenfan had had an ulterior motive for bringing up the five vs five match that night.

He shouldn’t have cooperated with Su Shenfan!

He sent another message to the Archfiend. “Are we going to let the Earthly Residence and Prince Zi go?”

The Archfiend said, “If you have a solution, I will cooperate.”
