Realms In The Firmament - Chapter 589

Chapter 589
"Who doesn’t want to sit on that throne? Everybody does . That is normal . Second Prince had such an ambition . He shouldn’t be blamed on that," Song Jue casually talked .



"And then?" the king asked .

"What do you expect? Who do you think he is? Of course, Xiao Xiao wouldn’t agree . It didn’t end with happiness . " Song Jue still sounded casual . "I heard he got his entire family wiped out after that day . Those who look for trouble always die early!"

Song Jue’s words were sharp . He meant more than what he said, and he didn’t want to hide anything .

The king’s face contorted and he said, "Did he do anything he shouldn’t in the House of Ye? That bastard son . He didn’t say anything offensive, did he?"

Song Jue said, "If he did, do you think he could leave here safely?"

He emphasized the last few words .

The king was relieved . "That’s true . "

[My second son was bodacious and vile, but he would never do anything he shouldn’t . He knew how to act under restraint . I believe he didn’t dare to seek troubles in Ye Nantian’s house after all . ]

They had some casual talk after that and then the king took leave .

He hadn’t acted like a king since he stepped in this house . He was more like an old friend . Song Jue acted far from a servant . He acted like he was just trying to send away some unexpected visitor . He wasn’t that distant, but not enthusiastic at all!

However, the king didn’t mind . Steward Song didn’t mind either!

"I will go to Ling-Bao Hall and visit the man everybody is talking about recently, Feng Monarch . "

That was his last word before he left .

Song Jue looked at the king and his men leaving . He felt stressed . [He suspects after all . However, so what? Look what your bastard son has done . Trouble after trouble . You are suspecting, so what? Even if you know the truth, what can you do?]

And he murmured after leaving with his hands on the back .

- Bang! -

He kicked on the door to shut it!

That was loud .

A few blood guards were frightened by the old man Song . They were nearly freaked out .

[Oh my bloody heavens!]

[The king has just left and you actually shut the door with a kick like this!]

[How about take it mildly to kick the door . That was loud enough to shock the entire Chen-Xing City there!]

[Why are you so disgruntled!]

[That is… That is the king . Even though you are disgruntled, you shouldn’t show it like this…]

[This is a firm and solid charge of offending the king!]

[That is looking for death! My lord! Lord Song!]

"What are you looking at? Shut the gate, will you?!" Song Jue humphed and then walked to the yard, murmuring, "What a fxcking day… Rats, dogs, all can get in for a visit now… Where do you think this is? I don’t have time to deal with you! Pah!"

As expected, the blood guards passed out at the door .

What Song Jue said… That was so valiant and bodacious, wasn’t it?

…

The king walked for a long distance after he left . He hadn’t said anything; he just showed a dark face .

Master Sun seemed like he wanted to say something . He looked at the king’s face and spoke in a low voice, "Your majesty, I wonder if I should say what I am thinking now . "



The king half closed his eyes and said, "What is it? Go ahead!"

Master Sun got closer and spoke in a voice that only he and the king could hear, "Your majesty… I saw that steward in the House of Ye… I felt… familiar somehow…"

The king frowned and said in a deep voice, "Familiar? How?"

Master Sun’s eyes flashed . He said, "That day… The superior cultivator who threw Second Prince down from that tower… I fought against him but got defeated by one palm hit… I deeply remembered it… that man’s postures…"

The king’s face turned stiff . He turned to Master Sun and looked at him . His eyes were filled with cold lights . "Hmm? Do you mean…"

Master Sun was sweating . He said, "This Steward Song… I think… maybe… he could be that guy…"

The king’s face changed color as he stared at Master Sun’s face . His eyes looked extremely dangerous at the moment .

Master Sun felt terrified like he had never did!

He could feel the killing qi from the king!

It was not against the steward though . It was against Master Sun himself!

It was just for him!

Master Sun quivered .

However, the king only showed that for seconds . He returned to peace soon and looked at Master Sun . He said in a low voice, "You misread, I am afraid!"

And then he stared at Master Sun .

Master Sun felt wet on his back . He wiped the sweat and said, "Right . I was defeated by one hit . I must be lost there . I misread it . "

"Sure you did," the king said again .



"Yes," Master Sun said . His heart beated even faster .

The king casually said, "Since you know it now, you should not mention it again . If it spread out to the public, that would cause a huge mistake!"

Master Sun nearly kneeled down . "Yes, your majesty! I will never mention a word about it in my life . "

The king had shown his attitude and position about that . Master Sun had been following him for so many years . He surely knew what that meant .

[I don’t care if you are right about it or not! Remember you did misread it!]

[House of Ye can not be touched . ]

[If the House of Ye falls, the kingdom falls . ]

[Especially now!]

[Second Prince committed such a crime . How can we keep going behind this case?]

[Royal dignity? Honor?]

[We have lost it at the beginning!]

[If we stick on it in the name of the Royal House, everybody will treat us as fraud!]

The king blinked his eyes and answer with a ‘hmm’, then he stopped talking .

Master Sun didn’t dare to speak a word . He and the others were only following the king .

However, the king’s breath was unstable, sometimes heavy, while sometimes weak . His face was changing expressions too . Apparently, he was having multiple emotions .

Nobody noticed that the king’s eyes had a sense of confusion . [Song Jue? Was it really him?]

The king believed that the murderer must be somebody else . However, Master Sun’s words made him think deeper . Things were getting complicated…

It seemed everything was suddenly behind a thick cloud .

While he nearly arrived at Ling-Bao Hall, he finally took a long breath out and murmured something .

"The bastard deserves to die . I have no words to say!"

In fact, Master Sun didn’t know . The king decided to put this down because of something bigger!

Even if he decided to call charges to the murderer, could he?
