Chapter 1829 Shi Long Kingdom’s Hidden Strive

Prime Minister Zhi walked out of the hall and arranged for some people to send the news to Prime Minister Dou. How to send the people and all still needed to be discussed and it was not that easy.

But the problem was that there were many people who would want a piece of this so called treasure.

It was very tiring.

"Prime Minister Zhi?"

Prime Minister Zhi turned and saw a man in his twenties. He quickly knelt on the ground and cupped his fist. "Prime Minister Zhi greets His Highness Prince Wu."

Prince Wu, whose name is Shi Fang Wu, was the fifth prince in Shi Long Kingdom. Because he was concubine born, he didn't have much power in the Imperial palace and had been quite low profile.

Prince Wu smiled. "Please rise. There's no need to be so polite to me, Prime Minister Zhi."

Prime Minister Zhi only looked at Prince Wu without saying anything else. It was clear that no matter what, he would not show anything to Prince Wu.

"Are there any important matters on the frontline?" Prince Wu asked carefully.

"The frontline is unstable. It'll be better for you to stay on the back, Your Highness," Prime Minister Zhi replied unhurriedly.

"I see." Prince Wu could see that Prime Minister Zhi was as cautious as ever. He could only say a few more polite words before sending Prime Minister Zhi away. Once the prime minister was nowhere to be seen, he turned to look at the eunuch.

"Say, what did Prime Minister Zhi discuss with Imperial father?"

"Your Highness, Prime Minister Zhi reported that Heavenly General Bao destroyed Dark Moon Organization and requested to search for their treasure."

Treasure?

Prince Wu's lips curled up slightly. He had heard about Dark Moon Organization and theirs exaggerate price to do mission. But no matter how expensive it was, when the mission was accepted, they would be able to complete it.

There was absolutely no leak about who ordered the mission and the target would be found dead.

All that left was the mark of the Dark Moon near the body.

That was how Dark Moon Organization gained their fame and at the same time, their reputation. The fact that Dark Moon Organization was leaning towards Fei Yang Kingdom had already incurred many people's dissatisfaction.

But they didn't dare to say or do anything.

Because they knew how Dark Moon Organization was able to form in the first place many years ago. The fact that these group of people were able to defeat heavenly general and other powerful generals, had already made many other stayed further away from them.

They were waiting.

Waiting for the time when Dark Moon Organization weakened.

Now, the time has come.

"What did Heavenly General Bao had to make Dark Moon Organization make their move?" Prince Wu asked.

The eunuch's face looked strange, but he still replied, "Your Highness, Heavenly General Wu had destroyed several villages. It's said that there are also members of Dark Moon Organization there. In addition, some of these villagers had relatives in other cities."

These people might have requested for Dark Moon Organization to kill Heavenly General Bao if it was possible.

In this matter, Shi Long Kingdom had more information compared to Fei Yang Kingdom. It happened in their territory and some of their people also handled the aftermath of the incident in order not to incite many news from outside.

If they knew that their respected general also killed their own people… it was hard to imagine what the effect would be.

"Interesting." Prince Wu nodded.

Dark Moon Organization rarely do anything that they were not sure of. But this time, they actually mobilized a lot of people and tried to hit Heavenly General Bao.

It was quite interesting.

Prince Wu's eyes flashed with a glint. "It seems I have to find some time to find out the traps and the treasure in Xia Mountains."

He also needed a lot of money.

In order to make sure that he could defeat his half-brothers and many other princes, he would need a lot of force and money. The treasure from Dark Moon Organization would be able to help him a lot.

But the premise would be that he could get it.

"Where's my older brother?"

The eunuch didn't answer immediately. Prince Wu is the fifth prince but he was also the only prince under his mother. If he was asking about his older brother, the only one he could think was the third prince, the crown prince, the first son of the Empress.

"His Highness the third prince is visiting Peony Garden."

"Peony Garden?" Prince Wu repeated, with a trace of sarcasm hidden within his tone along with ridicule.

He naturally knew that the Peony Garden was the place where Princess Lou Qing Wei often pay a visit because there were many variety of flowers that she could use. The so called use was naturally for medical purpose. Princess Luo Qing Wei was very capable, which was why their father allowed her to play around and also helped to tend the patients. It was even to the point that the Emperor was thinking of finding a husband to marry into the Imperial Family instead of marrying her out.

But since Princess Luo Qing Wei herself didn't seem to be interested to get married, no one said anything.

She's capable enough to make others follow her words.

Crown Prince Jin, Shi Fang Jin, has been trying to curry favor to Luo Qing Wei all these times. Prince Wu naturally knew how much his older brother wanted to marry Luo Qing Wei but many voices suppressed his request.

Even the Emperor himself disagreed.

Crown Prince Jin already had so many women in his harem and now thinking of taking Luo Qing Wei away and the Emperor was naturally dissatisfied with him.

So what this crown prince did was to run to Luo Qing Wei almost every day to show his face.

Prince Wu detested this crown prince greatly.
