Return of the Phoenix Lady

Chapter 180: Surprise at the Night Banquet

Seeing that Jin Yifeng still ignored him, he felt extremely unhappy with his arrogant attitude. Just when he was about to say something, Shangguan Hongyuan grabbed him and said with a lewd smile: "Haoyu, don't worry, we have plenty of time tonight, let's entertain our fifth prince, His Highness Jin Yifeng! Hehe~" After saying that, he smiled lewdly, not at all like the kind-hearted prime minister he had before, but a traitor who had succeeded in his evil scheme!

Jin Haoyu was pulled by Shangguan Hongyuan and immediately regained his gentle smile. He glanced at Jin Yifeng meaningfully and said, "Uncle, you are right! We have waited so long until today, we must treat you well!"

"Fifth Prince, hand over the jade pendant that Xinghan gave you! Otherwise, hehe~" Shangguan Hongyuan had a sly smile on his face, and even Jin Yifeng, who always ignored others, couldn't help but frown when he saw it.

Seeing that Jin Yifeng was unmoved, Jin Haoyu pulled Han Xing, who was sitting with his head down, over and said, "Fifth brother, Han is now ours. Look at how much of a failure you are as a human being. Even Han doesn't want you, a cold-blooded and heartless monster! Haha~"

Han Xing pretended to be guilty and hesitated for a few seconds, then looked at Jin Yifeng with an apologetic face and said, "Brother Feng, I'm sorry, I..."

"Don't apologize to him, Brother Han. Just follow big brother from now on. Big brother will make sure you and your son have enough food and clothing!" Jin Haoyu interrupted Han Xing's apology and said proudly to Jin Yifeng.

Han Xing continued to keep his head down and remained silent. He had done what he needed to do and it was time to watch the show.

Jin Haoyu glared at Jin Yifeng and said, "Fifth brother, you'd better be obedient and hand over the jade pendant. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel as your brother!"

Jin Yifeng was silent for a long time before he spoke in a cold voice: "What do you want the jade pendant for?"

"Haha~ Fifth brother, fifth brother, stop pretending. Don't you know that the jade pendant is Qin Hongyu's military token? Don't you know... Brother Han is the orphan of the Qin family - Qin Wuyou? That's right, how could Brother Han tell you such a secret? Haha~" The contempt and disgust in Jin Haoyu's eyes were beyond words.

Upon hearing this, Jin Yifeng just looked at Han Xing and said nothing more.

Jin Haoyu thought that Jin Yifeng was hurt by his words and became even more proud.

Shangguan Hongyuan also looked at Jin Yifeng proudly and said leisurely, "What do you need the jade pendant for? Isn't the Fifth Prince extremely intelligent? How come you couldn't even guess this? We've been planning and arranging this for so long, and it's finally going to succeed! The jade pendant is the military token. As long as you, the Fifth Prince, hand it over obediently, we won't make things difficult for you."

"Are you going to rebel?" Jin Yifeng asked coldly with a frown.

"Rebellion? How can it be called rebellion? We are fighting for the entire Jin Dynasty! Look, your father has no ambition at all. If we continue to do this, the Jin Dynasty will be annexed by other countries sooner or later. In order to prevent our country from perishing, we have to take the initiative to attack other countries first, and finally unify the Tianxing Continent! For this plan, Haoyu joined the Soul Refining Union at a young age, just to have enough advanced weapons to attack other countries in the future! You say, we are doing this for the country, how can it be called rebellion?" Shangguan Hongyuan looked at Jin Yifeng with a crazy look in his eyes. When he thought of his plan, he couldn't help but get his blood boiling. Power, desire, and ambition were clamoring in his mind!

"So you didn't hesitate to kill the prince? And destroy the Qin and Wu families?" Jin Yifeng didn't bother to look at them again. As long as he cooperated, they would tell him everything.

"You even know all this? I thought I did it perfectly, but I didn't expect you to know it! But it doesn't matter. What does it matter if you know it? If you tell others, no one will pay attention to you, because soon, the Jin Kingdom will be ours!" Shangguan Hongyuan looked at Jin Yifeng ambitiously and laughed.

"That's right! Fifth brother, so you'd better hand over the military token obediently!"

Upon hearing this, Jin Yifeng remained silent and just sat there quietly, as if they no longer existed.

Jin Haoyu glared at Jin Yifeng angrily and shouted, "What do you mean? I..." Before he could finish his words, he heard footsteps outside.

Jin Haoyu panicked and looked out the door uncertainly. Shangguan Hongyuan also frowned and looked out the door. Who could be coming at this time? And there were quite a few people.

"The Emperor has arrived!" A sharp shout sounded like a muffled thunder in the silent Prime Minister's Mansion, exploding in the minds of Jin Haoyu and Shangguan Hongyuan, leaving their minds blank for a moment.

First, a group of guards filed in, followed by the Jin emperor in a yellow robe and with a majestic expression, and finally Ying Rui and the other four.

Jin Haoyu and Shangguan Hongyuan's faces paled. They'd never imagined the emperor would arrive so suddenly. Could it be... Jin Yifeng? Damn it! They'd been careless. Jin Yifeng was so wary of them, how could he possibly come here alone? He must have informed the emperor beforehand.

"Haoyu, you are really my good son! The Shangguan family really needs me to look at them differently!" Jin Bintian, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, said with a cold face, staring at the two pale-faced people.

Although Jin Haoyu and Shangguan Hongyuan had some troops, with their current strength, it was impossible for them to face the emperor, who had General Qin's military token. However, they were extremely reluctant to abandon the plan they had been planning for so many years. They had finally seen success, but their excessive complacency had led to the current situation. However, as long as there is green mountains, there is no fear of lack of firewood. Now the only way was to protect themselves first, so as to have a chance to turn things around!

Shangguan Hongyuan immediately knelt down and said earnestly, "Your Majesty! Please don't misunderstand me. The truth is not what you see!"

"Father! You have to believe me!" Jin Haoyu also knelt down and said to Jin Bintian.

"Misunderstanding? I heard it with my own ears, could it be false? You conspired to rebel and personally admitted to killing the prince, the Qin family, and the Wu family. Did I hear it wrong?!" Jin

Bin Tian's face was filled with rage as he glared at the minister of his son whom he had always trusted, his heart filled with rage.

"This..." Shangguan Hongyuan was speechless. It turned out that Jin Bintian had heard everything. He had just been hoping that the emperor had just arrived and hadn't heard anything, but now...

"Hmph~ Nothing to say?" Jin Bintian glared at Shangguan Hongyuan and looked at Jin Haoyu with an incorrigible expression, "Haoyu, isn't your father good to you? How has your brother, the Crown Prince, wronged you? Why are you so cruel? And now you want to attack your brother Yifeng?"

"Father...I..." Before Jin Haoyu could finish his words, Shangguan Hongyuan suddenly jumped up and attacked Jin Yifeng in an instant.

Jin Bintian was shocked and angry when he saw this, but before he could call for help, Jin Yifeng was already in Shangguan Hongyuan's hands.

Shangguan Hongyuan changed his humble attitude and pinched Jin Yifeng's neck with one hand, saying smugly: "Humph! Dog Emperor, don't say those nonsense to shake Haoyu's heart! Let us go quickly, otherwise, be careful that I will accidentally break this delicate neck!"

"You!" Jin Bintian looked at Shangguan Hongyuan with a dark face and rage in his eyes, as if he wanted to shoot through Shangguan Hongyuan with his eyes.

Jin Yifeng glanced at the hand pinching his throat and frowned in disgust. No, he couldn't help it!
