save the bachelors

Chapter 4215 [Prince of Jiaozhi]

"Show me where you are now." Xiang Nan said.

Yagyu Tajima no Kami then pointed the two-sided mirror at his own position.

After Xiang Nan looked at it carefully, he used the technique of Apparition and in an instant he was beside Yagyu Tajima no Kami.

Then he took out his wand and used the Imperius Curse on Yagyu Tajima-no-kami again.

The duration of the Imperius Curse can be long or short. A skilled spellcaster can make it last for weeks or even months, while an ordinary spellcaster can only make it last for a few days or even a few hours.

Xiang Nan is a relatively skilled spellcaster. His Imperius Curse can last for a long time. Moreover, he will contact Yagyu Tajima-no-kami every two or three days. If he sees that he shows signs of getting rid of the Imperius Curse, he will cast another one.

However, it should not be used too frequently, because being cast under the Imperius Curse too often can easily lead to resistance, making it easier for people to break free from its effects.

After regaining control of Yagyu Tajima-no-kami, Xiang Nan hid him in a storage room, then took him into the weaving house and came to the study of Cao Guangde, the eunuch who was guarding the weaving bureau.

Then, Xiang Nan used all petrification to imprison him, and then used the art of transplantation to absorb his inner strength and martial arts, and then ordered Yagyu Tajima-no-kami to kill him.

In this way, Yagyu Tajima-no-kami not only completed the mission of the Divine Marquis, but Xiang Nan also benefited from it, gained a deep inner strength, and killed a lackey of the East Factory. It was a win-win situation for all parties.

Xiang Nan then took Yagyu Tajima no Mori away, and then separated from him and returned to Hulong Villa.

……

The next day, after a night of thinking, Shen Hou agreed to Yunluo's suggestion that Cheng Shifei pretend to be the prince of Jiaozhi and marry into the Ming royal family.

On the one hand, he did want to send someone to the emperor. But sending Haitang would be inconvenient, such as convincing Haitang to make sacrifices and sending Haitang to the palace...

The most important thing is that Haitang’s martial arts skills are not very high. Even if she can charm the emperor, Cao Zhengchun will find a way to get rid of her.

After all, the imperial palace is Cao Zhengchun's world. He may poison you today and send an assassin tomorrow. Haitang will never be his opponent.

But Cheng Shifei is different. He has the Vajra Indestructible Magical Skill to protect his body. As long as he practices martial arts well, Cao Zhengchun will not be able to do anything to him.

The key point is that even if he died, Shen Hou would not feel sad at all, and would even be a little happy, because if Cheng Shifei really died, Yun Luo would completely turn to his side.

After all, the emperor and the queen mother were Yunluo's blood relatives, and it was impossible for them to sit idly by while her husband was killed by Cao Zhengchun. As long as Cao Zhengchun lost the emperor's trust, the divine marquis would kill him immediately.

On the one hand, he was very familiar with the King of Jiaozhi, and he could ask the King of Jiaozhi to adopt Cheng Shifei as his adopted son. At that time, Cheng Shifei would be the nominal prince of Jiaozhi. With the support of Hulong Villa, it would not be difficult for Cheng Shifei to marry into the royal family.

"Ah, are you really asking me to pretend to be a prince of Jiaozhi and marry into the royal family?" Cheng Shifei couldn't help but said depressedly when he saw that Shenhou agreed to Yunluo's proposal. Although Yunluo had given so much to him, he really had never thought of marrying her.

"This is your first mission as a yellow-label spy. You must succeed. No failure is allowed." Shen Hou gave a stern order, making Cheng Shifei very embarrassed for a moment.

……

But the development of things was not affected by Cheng Shifei's will. Soon, the matter of him, as the prince of Jiaozhi, proposing marriage to the royal family of the Ming Dynasty was pushed forward by Shen Hou.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan did not have to participate in this farce, so he stayed in Hulong Villa on standby.

During this period, he was not idle. He would occasionally visit the secret caves of the East Factory to look for some valuable treasures, such as bronzes from the last three dynasties, ancient jades from the Qin and Han dynasties, Buddha statues carved from large pieces of Hetian jade, diamonds as big as goose eggs, and so on.

These are extremely rare treasures, even for someone like Xiang Nan who possesses magic, such treasures are quite rare. Of course, the premise is that he does not go to the museum to rob.

In addition, Xiang Nan also secretly visited the treasury within the imperial palace.

There are also many rare treasures in the treasury of the imperial palace.

They were all tributes from foreign states, princes, and ministers from all over the country, such as coral, jade, agate, gold, jadeite, gems, ivory, rhino horns, etc.

Because they were tributes to the emperor, naturally each one was exquisite and valuable.

Moreover, the palace's treasure house had accumulated over hundreds of years, while the East Factory had only been in power for a few short decades. Therefore, although there were many treasures in the East Factory's secret cave, they were still not as valuable as the treasure house in the Forbidden City.

Therefore, Xiang Nan got more treasures from it, such as rubies as big as eggs and as red as coal cores; ivory mats woven with ivory; calligraphy works by Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, and Monk Huaisu of the Tang Dynasty...

These treasures cannot be purchased even if you have money. It can be said that each one is priceless.

Xiang Nan tried his best to pick the best ones and put them in his own storage room, hoping to bring them back to the real world.

He didn't sell them for money, because with his wealth, he couldn't make ends meet. But most of them were antiques, and it was a good thing to keep them for leisure and enjoyment.

……

While Xiang Nan was secretly stealing treasures from the treasury of the East Factory and the Forbidden City, Cheng Shifei successfully pretended to be the prince of Jiaozhi and passed the emperor's test, thus being able to successfully marry into the royal family.

In fact, Cao Zhengchun did not want to marry Princess Yunluo for no reason.

Because he knew that Cheng Shifei was already a member of Hulong Villa. Once he married Princess Yunluo, he could stay with the emperor. At that time, it would not be so easy for him to deal with the emperor.

Besides, Cheng Shifei also caused him to lose his capable subordinates such as Wu Du and Qian Mian Langjun. As the saying goes, one should look at the owner before beating a dog, so he was naturally dissatisfied with Cheng Shifei, so he set up many tests specifically to ruin this marriage.

However, Cheng Shifei passed all the tests with his cleverness gained from hanging around in the market for a long time and his extraordinary martial arts skills, and finally won the opportunity to marry into the royal family.

However, just as the royal family began to prepare for their wedding, Cheng Shifei suddenly left a letter and disappeared.

It turned out that he still didn't want to marry Princess Yunluo and didn't want to be trapped in the palace, so he finally chose to leave secretly, return to the world, and live the free life he wanted.

When Princess Yunluo saw the letter, she found it hard to accept it for a while.

Shen Hou was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.

It's like dog meat cannot be served on the table, and mud cannot be propped up on the wall.

He went through untold hardships and finally arranged his marriage with Yunluo so that Cheng Shifei could enter the palace to protect the emperor. However, when the wedding was approaching, Cheng Shifei actually ran away.

If the emperor blamed him, he would be the first one to bear the brunt of the blame. After all, Cheng Shifei was his man, a secret agent of the Hulong Villa.

This time, his marriage with Yunluo was approved by the emperor himself. Therefore, he violated the imperial decree and left without permission, which was a crime of high treason and he deserved to be tortured to death.

If the gods fail to supervise effectively or meet the wrong people, there will naturally be corresponding punishments.

"Send someone to look for him immediately and make sure to bring him back." He said coldly to Xiang Nan and Haitang.
