My Wife Is a Transmigrated Master Cultivator - Chapter 1501

1501 The Eldest Prince’s Ambition (3)
“I heard that the members of the Liang family offended the eldest prince, so they were deliberately targeted by His Highness, the Eldest Prince and sent to the front line to tempting fate.”

“Is this for real? Wouldn’t that become His Highness using his position to take revenge?”

“The Imperial Court sent His Highness here to resist the beast tide, not for him to take revenge. His Highness is so narrow-minded and can’t differentiate between public and private matters. He’s simply too disappointing!”

“Right, if our entire Zhuang Prefectural City makes His Highness unhappy, will His Highness sacrifice the entire Zhuang Prefectural City?!”

“That’s hard to say. After all, the Liang family is a good example right now.”

“His Highness spoke so righteously before, but in the end, he’s just a despicable person who used his position to take revenge. He’s simply not a gentleman.”

“Shh… Stop talking. Do you see the two people over there? They’re the guards of His Highness. Don’t let them hear you.”

The group of people who were originally discussing animatedly immediately shut their mouths after hearing that and continued doing what they were supposed to do.

Even though they were furious at Duanmu Chun’s despicable behavior, they didn’t want to stand out.

So, they only dared to talk about it behind his back.

…

In the relay station in Zhuang Prefectural City.

“Your Highness, just as you expected, almost everyone in Zhuang Prefectural City is discussing the Liang family guarding the city tomorrow.”

The guards, who were dressed in plain clothes, walked around Zhuang Prefectural City and returned to the intermediate station to report to the eldest prince.

Duanmu Chun supported his head with one hand and lay on his side on the low couch, enjoying Cheng Su’er’s service.

After Duanmu Chun ate the spiritual fruit Cheng Su’er put to his mouth, he said, “How did those people react?”

“Those people don’t believe that the Liang family can protect Zhuang Prefectural City,” the guard replied truthfully.

Hearing that, Duanmu Chun chuckled in a good mood and slowly sat up from the low couch.

Seeing this, Cheng Su’er quickly tidied his slightly messy clothes carefully and knelt on the ground to put on his shoes.

Duanmu Chun raised his hand and picked up the teacup by the table. He took a sip and asked, “How’s the Liang family?”

The guard shook his head. “There’s still no movement from them.”

Duanmu Chun stopped drinking his tea and his originally good mood immediately disappeared without a trace.

“It seems that the Liang family is the same as Fourth Brother. They’re both tough nuts to crack.”
Duanmu Chun’s eyes reflected a terrifying dark light and his tone was as cold as a poisonous snake. It couldn’t help but make people’s hair stand on end.

“Your Highness, do you need me to add fuel to the fire?” The guard asked tentatively.

Duanmu Chun narrowed his eyes slightly and said again after a while, “No, just ask someone to keep an eye on them.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” The guard received the order respectfully and retreated after getting Duanmu Chun’s permission.

“Your Highness, the Liang family doesn’t have many people. If they really can’t defend the city, won’t Zhuang Prefectural City fall?”

After Cheng Su’er put on Duanmu Chun’s shoes, she didn’t get up immediately, but continued to kneel, because she knew that what Duanmu Chun liked the most was the sense of superiority when she completely submitted to him.

Duanmu Chun lowered his eyes and glanced at her from the corner of his eye. “What’s the matter? You can’t bear to see it?”

“Of course not.” Cheng Su’er quickly denied it. “I’m just worried about Your Highness’s safety. After all, Your Highness is currently in Zhuang Prefectural City. Once Zhuang Prefectural City falls, won’t Your Highness be in danger?”

Looking at Cheng Su’er’s humble posture and the undisguised worry on her face, Duanmu Chun’s originally gloomy mood suddenly improved.
