Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 710

The Empress led her attendants out of the imperial study, while Shangguan Qingyu was still unconscious.

Long Tianyu knew Shangguan Qingyu would be fine, but at the sight of Shangguan Qingyu's pale face, he thought Shangguan Qingyu, as a member of the Shangguan Family, treated himself so harshly.

“What brought you here?” The Emperor, who had been shrewd and wise just now, asked with a rare tired look at this moment, while pinching his nose.

He seemed to be as troubled as Long Tianyu.

“Father, I bring the peace treaty offered by the Nan'an State,” Long Tianyu answered.

Despite Shangguan Qingyu's accusation, the Emperor looked shocked and said, “Where is it? Present it to me quickly!”

Apparently, the Emperor, who was a little anxious, didn't expect that the Nan'an State, which had engaged in a fierce fighting with Dajin at the beginning of the year, would send a peace treaty at this time.

He immediately ordered Long Tianyu to present it to him.

Taking out the peace treaty, which was still warm, from his bosom, Long Tianyu hesitated for a moment, but finally placed it on his father's desk.

Although the Shangguan Family had been unqualified to compete for the position of the great general, the Emperor would still be delighted if the people in the border area could live and work in peace.

“Great! Great! Great!” The Emperor said “Great” three times with his tired look vanishing.

“You've done a good job, but I'm wondering where the messenger is?” The Emperor continued saying with a hint of eagerness in his eyes, while putting his big palm on the peace treaty on the desk.

After pondering for a moment, Long Tianyu reported what had happened to the messenger to his father.

“In this case, the assassin could be sent by the Shangguan Family?” Hearing his report, the Emperor asked.

Long Tianyu nodded, aware that his father was certainly wise and farsighted enough to tell the suspect.

“Fortunately, the Lin Family sent a master in martial arts to help. Otherwise, this peace treaty would have become a letter of challenge from our country. Father, I think it's better to handle it as soon as possible,” Long Tianyu said.

After being lost in thought for a long while, the Emperor finally nodded his head and said, “Okay, you may personally welcome the messenger and lead him into the Capital City three days later. Regarding the Lin Family, since they have made a great contribution, that is enough to offset their faults, I'll let go of Lin Nansheng. Come on, dispatch my imperial edict to release Lin Nansheng immediately.”

Their contribution was enough to offset their faults? On hearing this, Long Tianyu showed a flash of disappointment in his deep eyes.

In fact, he had merely brought the peace treaty. Ultimately, the credit should be given to Lin Mengya.

Unexpectedly, his father left him no way out by claiming the Lin Family's contribution could offset their faults.

In this case, how much true paternal love he could expect from his father, who was so cold-hearted?

Long Tianyu only felt a chill. It was said that the way to the throne was actually a lonely and ruthless competition.

Without Lin Mengya's company on his way to the throne, he probably would not be able to sleep in peace on the lonely nights in the Imperial Palace.

“Got it. I'm leaving now,” as Long Tianyu said, he bowed and left the imperial study respectfully.

Only he knew how helpless he looked when he lowered his head.

“Go back and take a good rest. I count on you to inherit the throne,” the Emperor said.

Perhaps because of Long Tianyu's obedience or the thought that the peace treaty on the desk could guarantee a long-term peace, the Emperor did not warn Long Tianyu to stop pursuing what he had done to the Lin Family before Long Tianyu left.

Long Tianyu turned around and left the brightly lit area.

In the darkness, as his handsome face gradually turned cold, he rolled his dark eyes, showing a somber look.

“Eunuch Yu, how have you been?” He said, while moving softly and arriving at a dark corner of the courtyard in the blink of an eye.

The other thin figure had been waiting here for a long while. However, no matter how long it had been, he kept his back straight.

“Thanks for asking, Young Master. What may I do for you?” Yu Qiang said.

He acted even more respectfully and submissively than he did in front of the Emperor.

It was because the man in front of him had completely grasped this country's deepest secret a month ago.

The Four-Saints Guards were composed of the Blue Dragon Team, the White Tiger Team, the Rosefinch Team and the Black Tortoise Team.

Each of them performed its own functions. Although the Four-Saints Guards didn't have plenty of members, it included all the elites of Dajin.

The Four-Saints Guards the Emperor had handed over to Long Tianyu back then were just an imitation.

This army was the deepest secret about Dajin's power. Even his father only knew its name, but didn't know how to get it.

With a sparkle in his eyes, Long Tianyu suddenly took out an exquisite Tiger Token his grandfather gave him.

At that time, he had just thought his grandfather gave it to him so that it could remind him of his grandfather. Unexpectedly, it was actually the most precious thing his grandfather gave him.

“Make a detailed investigation of the number of the officials on my father's side. I believe that you are competent at this task,” Long Tianyu said sternly and coldly.

A month ago, Yu Qiang suddenly came to Long Tianyu and told him about the Four-Saints Guards.

In order to get the army, Long Tianyu went alone to find them and completely convinced the captain of the Four Saints Guards to follow him.

Of course, it was definitely impossible to gain their support with words.

If he succeeded in ascending the throne, the Four-Saints Guards would show up after.

The reason why its existence was exposed in advance was probably…

“Yes, Young Master.” Yu Qiang took the order and left.

No one would have thought Yu Qiang, who had always been trusted by the Emperor in the Imperial Palace, was the commander of the Four-Saints Guards.

In the dark, Long Tianyu tightened his grip on the Tiger Token, while looking towards the brightly lit imperial study not far away.

He had thought that Yu Qiang's worry was unnecessary, but now he realized that he was nothing but a pawn in his father's eyes.

No one was willing to give up the throne.

But all men must die, so the Emperor would only let his most beloved heir inherit his throne.

That was also the case for his grandfather, who gave him the Tiger Token to commander the Four-Saints Guards as his talisman.

His father, who had the same idea, made him a target for all and then got rid of all his supporters one by one at the most critical moment.

In the end, the throne would be inherited by an unremarkable prince.

In this way, he was merely a tool for his father to eradicate the dissidents, while the real beneficiary was enjoying the pleasure of being a prince in the Imperial Palace.

As Long Tianyu thought, he showed an indifferent smile silently.

In this case, he would destroy the dream on which his father had spent all these years working!

Feeling his heart seemed to be frozen, he subconsciously covered his chest with his hand, but he touched something warm, that gently melted the iceberg in his heart bit by bit.

Under his clothes, it was an annulus made of warm jade, that she had worn all the time but now was his talisman.

Long Tianyu turned around and strode away. He didn't care even if the whole world went against him. As long as he could see her peaceful smile, he could disregard anything else in the world!

“Father, is my brother coming back today?” Lin Mengya, who had woken up early in the morning and freshened up, stood at the door and asked expectantly.

“Yes, the Magistrate sent someone to inform us that your brother is coming back soon. Just take it easy,” Lin Muzhi, dressed in steel gray clothes, said, looking in high spirits because his son had gotten out of trouble.

With a smile, he stared at the figure, that was dressed in pink and standing at the door, recollecting that his sweet daughter had waited for him and his son to come back like this.

“What's wrong with brother? What keeps him there so that he hasn't come home yet? I've prepared some grapefruit leaves and red eggs for getting rid of his bad luck and bringing him good luck, but in vain. After he comes back, I will definitely punch him,” Lin Mengya said.

After getting the message from the Magistrate this morning, she knew that the Emperor did not want her to ask to restore her family to its former place and power.

However, she didn't want to make that request. In fact, as long as her brother could be released and the credit could be given to Long Tianyu, she would be satisfied.

Fortunately, she had gotten what she wanted. Besides, Long Tianyu was attached to her. Even if the Emperor chose countless beautiful women as candidates for Long Tianyu's consort, Long Tianyu would not care about them at all, not to mention sleeping with them.

As such, Lin Mengya did not say anything about it. Instead, she comforted Long Tianyu, who was not resigned to the situation.

It was noon, but Lin Nansheng had not come back yet. Lin Mengya was a little worried, thinking if the Emperor wanted to go back on his word.

“Go to the government office and inquire about why my brother hasn't come back yet,” Lin Mengya couldn't wait any longer, so she had to send some servants to make an inquiry.

But before those she sent walked to the street, Lin Nansheng appeared in her sight.

“Brother!” She called in a crisp voice with pleasant surprise.

Then, a petite pink figure dashed up to her brother and threw herself into his arms, which was still solid despite his slightly thin figure.

She said, “Brother, you're finally back. Father and I have been waiting for you for a long while.”

Lin Nansheng froze for a while and returned to himself.

Looking at his sister, who acted like a spoiled child in his arms as usual, and his father, who was standing at the door with a gratified look in his eyes, he felt his heart involuntarily trembled.

He said, “I'm alright… I'm alright. Silly girl, I'll be fine with you around.”

Even during the period when Lin Nansheng was detained in the prison, he knew his sister and father must be trying every way to get him out of there.
