Chapter 1695: Chapter 1695: Sui Zimo Appears
Sure, here is the translation of the given text.
Indeed, perhaps he could inform his master of the news that Yin Baiqing was still in Prince Mo’s Mansion.
But whether Yin Baiqing was really inside Prince Mo’s Mansion was just his speculation, without any solid evidence. Was he expected to fabricate some proof?
"Actually, it’s not impossible," he thought to himself, feeling that he could indeed create some evidence.
"You stay in the mansion; I have something to attend to outside," Prince Yi said.
...
Within the royal palace, the Emperor of Liang’s expression was not very pleasant either.
His own people kept failing against someone he had always looked down upon and disdained; how could his mood be good?
He wished he could have Sui Zimo flayed and sliced into a thousand pieces! Sadly, he could not do it himself.
"Your Majesty, the state letter from the Liang Kingdom has arrived," Eunuch Gui informed the emperor as he entered.
"The Liang Kingdom?"
The emperor’s eyes brightened, and the color returned to his face at last.
"Bring it quickly," he commanded.
Finally, there was some good news coming, wasn’t there?
He imagined the Emperor of Liang, for the sake of his beloved sister, would certainly forsake his useless niece, after all, she was merely a country girl.
Indeed, as he held the state letter in his hands and read the words on it, his lips curled into a grin and he burst into laughter.
"Send someone immediately to watch outside Prince Mo’s Mansion. As soon as Sui Zimo appears, report back to me!" he ordered Eunuch Gui.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Eunuch Gui obeyed and then left the imperial study.
...
In a secluded mountain retreat,
clad in black, Prince Yi moved stealthily like a rat, scanning his surroundings carefully. After confirming there was no one tracking him, he continued onward.
Sometime later, he arrived at a cave.
Gazing into the pitch-dark cave, he swallowed hard and took a deep breath before stepping inside.
Soon, two voices could be heard inside.
"What, Yin Baiqing is truly still in Prince Mo’s Mansion?" the man in black said, his voice tinged with fierceness.
He had waited so long and finally received news of Yin Baiqing; it was worth enduring the poor living conditions in this cave.
"Yes, my lord," Prince Yi replied, feeling incredibly fortunate that the man in black was residing in this cave.
In the pitch-blackness of the cave where his facial expressions couldn’t be clearly seen, he knew he would otherwise give himself away.
"One of my subordinates went to Prince Mo’s Mansion the night before last. According to the report, they personally saw Yin Baiqing there.
Unfortunately, while trying to rescue her, they were discovered by Prince Mo’s people and only one managed to fight his way out to bring the news, but he too succumbed to his severe injuries and perished."
"Dead?" The man in black’s eyes flashed with doubt.
But it was soon replaced by the hatred in his heart. Having been thwarted by Sui Zimo multiple times, he was determined to have his revenge!
"Yes, dead," Prince Yi confirmed with a nod. Of course, he had to say the man was dead; that way, there would be no evidence to the contrary.
"Although the man died, it also confirmed that Yin Baiqing is indeed in Prince Mo’s Mansion. After much thought, I decided to seek the master’s help.
The people of Prince Mo’s Mansion are too crafty and their actions too vicious. There aren’t people as skilled as yours in Prince Yi’s Mansion, and we have suffered losses in Prince Mo’s Mansion time and again.
Master, what do you think about personally retrieving Yin Baiqing?"
