Chapter 915 Provocation
PS: I made some changes to the previous chapter.

"Yes." Fu Zheng nodded gently: "Your Highness, should I take action to eliminate them first?"

Chu Zhiyuan glanced at her.

Fu Zheng chuckled and said, "I think we can kill a few of them."

Her Yuepo Sword Sutra realm became more profound, and its power became more astonishing.

Especially the hidden aura, at night, after blending with the moon shadow, it is almost impossible to be detected.

At that time, I will hide in the moonlight and make a sudden attack, which will kill the enemy with one blow.

Even if these masters have protective clothing, it may not be useful.

The tip of her sword did not pierce the torso, but rather the vital points such as the center of the eyebrows or the back of the head.

In addition, her sword was so fast that it was almost impossible to avoid it, unless one had extraordinary physical skills or an accurate premonition.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Don't make things complicated."

Fu Zheng snorted, "Your Highness, I am just indignant. This Yuan Zhen is too abominable. He actually dared to kill Your Highness."

Chu Zhiyuan said slowly: "One plan after another, one after another, it's really troublesome."

I had underestimated him and Yuan Zhen before. It was obvious that the purpose of this substitute was not only to be abolished, but also to have other conspiracies.

According to preliminary estimates, this substitute is likely to drag himself down with him.

If there is only this substitute, it is impossible to achieve the goal because of my fast body movements.

But what if the masters of Tianya Sword Sect and Miaoyin Sword Sect were combined to perform the task?

But this is just my own speculation and there is no way to confirm it, so I can't kill them directly.

Fu Zheng was eager to try: "Your Highness, are you going to let them off just like that?"

Her sword was already sheathed, ready to be used, and she couldn't wait to unsheathe it and kill someone.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Let's avoid this wedding first. After the wedding, they will have to go back."

"Go to Yuanzhen to kill them?" Fu Zheng cheered up.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly: "Halfway, or to Yuanzhen, both are fine."

"Yes!" Fu Zheng said excitedly, "I will protect His Highness."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I will enter the Tongtian Tower, no need for protection."

Fu Zheng smiled and said, "It's great to be able to enter Tongtian Tower again."

"Go and deliver the letter first." Chu Zhiyuan said, "Tell the Third Prince, the First Prince, the Second Prince, and... and Princess Yuanzhen Thirteen."

"Yes."

Sifang Pavilion

Yuanzhenyuan

Thirteenth Princess Cheng Ruoxi was walking slowly in the courtyard, her beautiful face looking solemn.

At this moment, a little maid came in and reported: "Your Highness, the twelfth prince consort sent someone to ask for an audience."

"who is it?"

"That Fu Zheng."

"Invite her in."

"Yes."

Fu Zheng came in quickly, smiled sweetly, and saluted: "Greetings, His Highness the Thirteenth."

Cheng Ruoxi asked calmly, "What's the matter, Prince Consort?"

"Your Highness sent me here to apologize. Your Highness is going to retreat into the Tongtian Pavilion and may not be able to attend the wedding of the princess and the third prince."

"Retreat?" Cheng Ruoxi frowned.

Fu Zheng nodded and said, "My Highness has some insights into his cultivation and cannot be delayed."

Cheng Ruoxi chuckled: "Well, compared to the wedding, cultivation is naturally more important."

Fu Zheng could hear her sarcasm and was secretly annoyed. She smiled sweetly and said, "My prince said that he has a special status after all, and it would be harmful rather than beneficial for him to attend this wedding."

Cheng Ruoxi frowned.

Fu Zheng said: "Perhaps Princess, you are still in the dark and don't know the Fifth Prince's plan."

"What's the plan?"

"Then I'll have to ask the Fifth Prince." Fu Zheng shook her head gently and said with a sweet smile, "I'll take my leave."

Cheng Ruoxi frowned and asked, "What did the Prince Consort know?"

Fu Zheng just shook his head and smiled, clasped his fists and bowed, then left the courtyard.

Cheng Ruoxi frowned, and her beautiful face gradually became gloomy.

The maidservant beside her whispered, "Your Highness, she is talking nonsense, right? ...According to what she said, the twelfth prince consort is trying to avoid the limelight?"

"It seems so." Cheng Ruoxi said coldly: "Please ask Fifth Brother to come over."

"Yes."

… Cheng Yunzheng walked into the courtyard with an indifferent look on his face and said impatiently: "Thirteenth sister, I am practicing, what's the matter?"

Cheng Ruoxi waved her hand.

All the maids and guards around retreated.

The courtyard suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Cheng Yunzheng frowned and looked at her, puzzled.

"I didn't want to ask more questions." Cheng Ruoxi said slowly, "But there is one premise. Don't make trouble at my wedding."

Cheng Yunzheng remained silent.

Cheng Ruoxi said in a deep voice: "Fifth brother, you don't want to mess around at the wedding, do you?"

Cheng Yunzheng shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't ruin your wedding."

Cheng Ruoxi sneered.

She immediately saw through the subtle changes in Cheng Yunzheng's expression.

It turns out that he wants to use some tricks on his own wedding.

She said coldly: "Is it directed at Chu Liezhao?"

Cheng Yunzheng shook his head and said, "Thirteenth sister, you are getting married soon, so it's inevitable that you will have some wild thoughts, so just put your mind at ease."

Cheng Ruoxi asked: "Besides you, is there anyone else who took action?"

Cheng Yunzheng shook his head and sighed, "Thirteenth sister, you are too suspicious."

Cheng Ruoxi said coldly: "Fifth brother, you haven't received the news yet, right? Chu Liezhao is about to enter Tongtian Pavilion for retreat and will not attend the wedding."

“Hmm——?!” Cheng Yunzheng’s face changed.

Cheng Ruoxi's beautiful face turned cold.

The change in Cheng Yunzheng's expression proved that Chu Zhiyuan's speculation was correct.

She was furious, her eyes sparkling.

Cheng Yunzheng shook his head and said, "This Chu Liezhao really doesn't take you, Thirteenth Sister, seriously!"

"He specially sent someone to apologize." Cheng Ruoxi said coldly: "If you don't give me face, you have to give face to the third prince. In order to avoid turning the wedding into a farce, he can only avoid participating."

Cheng Yunzheng's expression returned to indifference, and he said calmly: "Thirteenth sister, you think too highly of him."

Cheng Ruoxi sneered: "You are really my good fifth brother! ... Father also knows, right?"

Cheng Yunzheng shook his head and said, "You've been thinking about random things all day long. I'm leaving now. I still need to practice."

Cheng Ruoxi's face was cold and anger was boiling in her heart.

The emperor doesn't care about his daughter's life or death at all. He is such a good father!
Her anger was mixed with chill, her eyes were as bright as flames, and she stared at his back until his back disappeared.

Twelve Prince Consorts' Mansion

In the early morning, when Chu Zhiyuan was about to set off, the eldest prince Li Cunren came over.

The two of them talked in the pavilion in his courtyard.

Looking at the rustling green bamboo, Li Cunren put down his teacup and said, "Brother-in-law, are you really going to retreat into the Tongtian Pavilion and not attend my third brother's wedding?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Li Cunren frowned: "What's the reason?"

He saw that there was something fishy going on at a glance.

“…When you reach an important stage in your cultivation, you do need to go into seclusion.” Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Li Cunren snorted, "You are representing the twelfth sister, how can you not participate?"

Chu Zhiyuan has a different identity and can represent Li Miaotan.

Li Miaotan is the third prince's half-sister and closest person.

When Li Miaotan was in seclusion, he would naturally represent Li Miaotan to attend, and if he did not go, it would be a great pity.

Li Cunren knew that Chu Zhiyuan would understand this, so he must have his own reasons.

Cultivation is just an excuse.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Brother, my identity is sensitive. If anything goes wrong during the wedding, I will inevitably get into trouble."

"To avoid suspicion?" Li Cunren was skeptical.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "It's better to avoid it."

Li Cunren pondered: "Isn't the Queen Mother going to be unhappy? My third brother will also be dissatisfied."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Choose the lesser of two evils."

Li Cunren sighed and said helplessly: "Sometimes, a simple thing can become extremely complicated."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "No matter how strong your cultivation is, you still have to be bound by it."

"Okay, then I'll do as you say. I'll try to persuade my third brother."

"Thank you, big brother." Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists and smiled gratefully.
