Banshee Concubine: The Evil Lord's Pampering Boundless

Chapter 249 The People Behind the Scenes
"Well, I will leave this matter to you. The other elders will trouble me to restore the defense of the clan together, so as not to be hurt again."

"We will definitely obey the arrangement of the Great Elder." Everyone expressed no objection to Lingyun's arrangement.And it's the best way right now.

"Okay, then everyone, go down and make preparations first. I will wait for the elders in the forbidden area to discuss the plan later."

Wait until all the elders of the Spirit Race have retreated.

Only Xue Cangming, Su Xuan and Lingyun were left in the room.

"Brother Su, Cang Ming, what do you think about this matter?" Lingyun sat on the chair, holding the temple in front of his forehead with one hand, and rubbing it gently, as if feeling a little tired, but he was still energetic Yiyi's old man suddenly seemed to be several years old again, which made people feel distressed.

Xue Cangming narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"In my opinion, my opinion is similar to what you think, but I really can't think of anyone who can do such a thing." Su Xuan thought for a long time, but he couldn't figure out who the person behind the scenes was. Not even a little thought.

"Oh, don't talk about you, Brother Su, even I can't figure it out." Lingyun just shook his head lightly, and sighed heavily again.

"Cang Ming, what about you? What do you think?" Seeing that Xue Cangming had remained silent all this time, Ling Yun couldn't help asking.

Xue Cangming's thumb that was still pinching in the palm of his hand slowly stopped, and then he raised his head, looked at Lingyun and Su Xuan with deep eyes, and said, "I always feel that this matter is not simple, maybe it's not as simple as our surface. As seen."

After hearing Xue Cangming's answer, Lingyun and Su Xuan looked at each other involuntarily. Obviously, both of them didn't quite understand what Xue Cangming's words meant.

"Cang Ming, what do you mean by that?" Although he didn't quite understand, Ling Yun believed Xue Cang Ming's words.Because Xue Cangming has always been a resourceful person in their eyes, basically nothing can escape his eyes, since he said so, there must be a reason for him.Xue Cangming would never do anything he was not sure about.

On this point, neither Lingyun nor Su Xuan had any doubts about Xue Cangming.

"I didn't know what to say for a while, but I think their purpose seems to be to target the spirit race, but it doesn't seem to be." Xue Cangming frowned tightly and said, "Think about it, if If it is really aimed at the Spirit Race, then this time they can take advantage of the elders in the clan to go out, and then directly let the Spirit Race lose everything. In fact, they have already attacked the Spirit Race, but why do they seem to be merciless? Already?" Although these words were not so pleasant to hear, Xue Cangming didn't want to hide anything, because in his opinion, this matter was indeed very strange.

After Xue Cangming finished speaking, the expression on Lingyun's face was obviously dull for a moment.

That's right, what Xue Cangming said is not wrong. Under such circumstances, the other party is fully capable of annihilating the spirit clan in one fell swoop, but why didn't they do so?

"Then, according to what you said, what should we do now?" Su Xuan stood up excitedly, looked straight at Xue Cangming and asked.

Lingyun also set his sights on Xue Cangming.

After Xue Cangming frowned and thought for a while, he said slowly, "Don't make too many moves for now, otherwise you may attract your opponent again."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Lingyun and Su Xuan with deep meaning in his eyes.

Lingyun and Su Xuan looked at each other, and knew what Xue Cangming meant.

"Now we can only do this first, stop calmly and see what the other party is going to do." Ling Yun nodded, stroked his beard and said.

"You two have worked hard today. I will leave the rest to the old man. You also have a lot of work to do, so I won't keep you here anymore."

"Well, that's fine, I haven't been back to the clan for a while, and I don't know what it's like now, but as long as the clan flower is fine, everything else is fine." Su Xuan nodded and patted his clothes on the folds, and then ready to go.Finding that Xue Cangming didn't intend to leave yet, he asked out loud, "Cangming, aren't you leaving?"

"En." Xue Cangming turned his head and glanced at Lingyun, his face was a little solemn, but finally he nodded lightly.

"Cough cough...cough cough..." In the imperial study, there were bursts of severe coughing.

The fifth prince stood at the door of the study room, and after hearing the movement from inside, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

With a "squeak", the door of the study was pushed open.

The person on the bed was still lying powerlessly, his body trembling slightly due to the violent coughing.

The emperor looked at the ceiling expressionlessly, his lips were a little dry and white, and his eyes seemed to have become a little cloudy.

"Royal father." Seeing that the emperor didn't react to his arrival, the fifth prince frowned slightly and called out.

Seeing someone coming in, the emperor drooped his eyelids tiredly, then opened them slowly, and then glanced at the fifth prince.

Just at this glance, the fifth prince was still a little frightened, and after only a few days of seeing him, the once mighty emperor seemed to have aged several decades, as if his body had been hollowed out and only a shell remained.

But even so, the emperor looked at him just now with indescribably sharp eyes, and for a moment, the fifth prince felt a little guilty.

"You're here." The emperor slowly withdrew his gaze, without much emotion, he just asked indifferently, as if the person in front of him had nothing to do with him.

right!That's it!

Unknowingly, the fifth prince's hand began to be squeezed tightly in his sleeve, and the little guilt that was left in his heart just now disappeared without a trace with the emperor's cold tone.

In the eyes of his father, he will never be comparable to Nangong Ye.No matter what Nangong Ye did wrong, the emperor would always try his best to help him escape from the crime behind his back.Although it looks like he is more favored than Nangong Ye from the back.But only he himself knows that the emperor treats him differently from Nangong Ye. No matter how good it is, it is in front of others. In private, the emperor always treats him hot and cold.

He didn't understand how he was worse than Nangong Ye, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't win the favor of his father, but Nangong Ye could easily make everyone stand by him without doing anything.

Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince's heart became colder and colder!

That being the case, don't blame him.

"Father, have you been feeling better recently?" The fifth prince collected his thoughts and stopped a few steps away from the emperor.

The emperor closed his eyes, no one knew what he was thinking.

It wasn't until the fifth prince thought that he couldn't speak, that the emperor said slowly: "Oh, father is getting old, and his body is not as good as before." He paused for a while, and then said: "While father The king is still here, so you should exercise hard, and you may need your help to take care of the court affairs in the future." After the emperor finished speaking, he seemed to glance at the fifth prince inadvertently, everything seemed so natural.

Sure enough, when the fifth prince heard the emperor's words, panic flashed again in his heart. When his eyes touched the emperor's seemingly unintentional gaze, they suddenly flickered and avoided the emperor's sight, and then hurriedly said: "Father, what are you talking about? You are the son of the real dragon, and you will live forever, long live, long live, long live!" After saying that, he knelt down, but his heart kept beating. Could it be that the father already knew something?

No no no, impossible.
