Chapter 783 Cloud Gate is full of snake spirits! (1)
The Eighth Prince's Mansion no longer had the noise and prosperity of the past. There were hundreds of servants in the huge mansion, but now there are only a dozen or so servants left. The whole mansion looks a little empty, like a fallen Huaguo.In the study, Murong Zhao angrily smashed the whole study into a mess.After all, he couldn't compare to Murong Qi, he was only in his 20s, his mother's family was originally strong, and he himself was favored and arrogant.Now, he has to cower under the hands of a woman to survive, how can he not be angry?
"Why is the eighth prince doing this?" At the door, a smiling man appeared at some time, and sighed with a smile.

Murong Zhao turned his head sharply, staring at Xiao Ting at the door, "It's you? How dare you show up here at this time?" Although the Xiyue soldiers who besieged the mansion have already withdrawn, Murong Zhao doesn't believe that there will be no one behind the scenes. Xiao Ting dared to appear here openly and aboveboard even though people were watching their mansion, it was really audacious.

Xiao Ting smiled and said: "Is the eighth prince so afraid of Mu Qingyi? Don't worry, since I'm here, I have a way to help me, so I won't implicate the eighth prince." Hearing this, Murong Zhao blushed with anger and blurted out And debuted: "Nonsense! How could this king be afraid of a woman?!"

Xiao Ting smiled lightly, but the expression on his face showed what he was thinking in his heart, and made Murong Zhao's complexion even more ugly.Of course he wasn't afraid of Mu Qingyi alone, he was terrified of the entire Xiyue power behind Mu Qingyi.

Xiao Ting walked into the study and said with a faint smile: "The matter of the treasure... I wonder how the Eighth Prince is doing?"

Murong Zhao snorted lightly, and said with a sneer, "You said Mu Qingyi already knew the whereabouts of the treasure?" Xiao Ting raised his eyebrows, "She won't admit it?"

"If you do, would you admit it?" Murong Zhao asked.Xiao Ting thought for a while with his chin in his hand, tilted his head to look at Mu Murong Zhao and said with a smile: "Don't you believe me, the Eighth Prince? Our previous promise... to get the treasure, you and I will get half of it. Is the Eighth Prince planning to break the contract?" Murong Zhao said angrily, "Mu Qingyi doesn't even know the whereabouts of the treasure."

Xiao Ting shook his head and said: "No, Mu Xiang is a smart person, she should have been found after such a long time. She just doesn't want to tell you. The more frank she is on the surface, the more outsiders will naturally believe her. But... I will never believe it. Mu Xiang's cleverness... Maybe it should be said to be cunning, the Eighth Prince should have been taught, how can he still believe what she said?"

Murong Zhao rolled his eyes, "She doesn't want to admit that you dare to force her? Or does Young Master Xiao have any tricks?"

Xiao Ting said with a smile: "Mu Xiang refuses to admit it, just because there is not enough pressure. Soon... I will help the Eighth Prince put pressure on her." Looking at Xiao Ting's confident appearance, Murong Zhao said with some doubts: "What can you do?" Xiao Ting said with a smile, "Do you still remember the eighth prince? A few months ago, because of 30 taels of silver, the entire green forest in Huaguo was dispatched to hunt down Mu Qingyi. This time... if it is 3000 million or more, guess how many people will come?"

Hearing this, Murong Zhao couldn't help but change his face, "You're crazy! There are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the rivers and lakes. If so many people really come, what's the matter with us?" Now they are not princes who hold great power. Still prosperous and rich, but there are no more than a dozen servants in the mansion, and no more than ten guards. The manpower that can be called is almost equal to zero. What do you use to compete with those people in the world?

Xiao Ting raised his eyebrows in disdain and said: "People in the Jianghu... are good at martial arts, but their brains are not very good. Being used by me for a while is their only remaining function. Don't worry, the eighth prince, I am sure of doing so. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, I won’t be able to explain it to the Emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty.” According to their most conservative estimates, the wealth hidden by the Emperor Hua should be more than 3000 million taels of real gold and silver, not to mention those rare treasures of the Northern Han Dynasty. It's a rare treasure.Even if half of these things can be brought back, the strength of the Northern Han Dynasty will be able to fight, enough to support several battles.And his contribution is naturally huge, and the status of both the Xiao family and his sister will be more stable by then.

Murong Zhao frowned and looked at Xiao Ting, feeling that Xiao Ting's actions were somewhat dangerous.But in fact, he really has no good way.What's more, it is not so easy to get off Xiao Ting's thief ship.

Closing his eyes, Murong Zhao said, "What do you want me to do?"

"Find a way to bring Emperor Hua out." Xiao Ting said.

"No." Murong Zhao directly refused, "Father is already crazy, there is no way to ask anything. Besides, we refused when Murong Xi asked us today, wouldn't it be a cover-up if we ask for it now?"

"Crazy?" Xiao Ting frowned, and asked in disbelief: "Is it really crazy or is it fake?"

Murong Zhao curled his lips mockingly and said: "If you can kill all the important officials in the court, do you think it's really crazy or fake? Besides, if it's not really confirmed, Mu Qingyi probably won't." It’s so easy to see him put outside.” Xiao Ting frowned with some regret, if Huahuang is still in good condition, he can still use him to do a lot of things, but if he is crazy... there is no use value.Even if it was used to discredit Mu Qingyi and Xiyue, it had little effect. Jian'an City was destroyed, and Emperor Hua killed all the dignitaries of the Manchu Dynasty. From the eyes of ordinary people, such behavior would have been insane.Now that Emperor Hua is crazy, the common people will only think that it is true.

With a helpless sigh, Xiao Ting pondered for a moment and said: "In this case, let's get in touch with Murong Xi more. Besides Hua Huang, the person who is most likely to know the whereabouts of the treasure is Murong Xi. It seems... Hua Huang Even though Murong Xi has been demoted, the crown prince is the most important thing. It's a pity... If Murong Xi is still the crown prince, I'm afraid that the Hua Kingdom will not be in such a catastrophe, right?"

Hearing Xiao Ting's words, Murong Zhao's face became even more difficult, and he snorted softly: "Murong Xi has been away from the capital for many years, your guess is groundless."

Xiao Ting didn't take it seriously, and snorted softly: "It's not just a guess, it's my intuition. I think... Murong Xi must know something. So, Murong Xi will trouble the Eighth Prince." Murong Zhao said with a sullen face, But Xiao Ting understood that he agreed, and said with a smile: "Others... If nothing happens, the Eighth Prince can stay in the mansion. Recently... Jian'an City is a bit dangerous. I will leave."

Before Murong Zhao opened his mouth to see off the guests, Xiao Ting turned around and went out.Standing outside the door, looking up at the dark night sky, a sneer of disdain appeared on his lips.Who is showing such a haughty look even when the country is subjugated?Those people in the Jianghu still have some value to use, and these people in the royal family of the Hua Kingdom... it is better to die as soon as possible.Mu Qingyi... Is she kind-hearted or has another purpose to keep her until now?He couldn't believe that Mu Qingyi couldn't see that these people had secretly contacted him!
