Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1551 Shangguan Yu’s Situation

Lowering his head, the manservant brought Shangguan Yu to the room where Shangguan Mi was located.

The people who were there quickly brought Shangguan Yu into the room and called Shangguan Mi.

“Miss Mi had arrived.”

After staying here for a long time, Shangguan Mi’s face looked a bit pale. The thick makeup could barely cover it and maintain her youthful appearance. She looked tired and haggard, along with the somewhat ferocious look on her eyes.

Though, Shangguan Yu didn’t seem to be bothered with her look in the slightest bit. He looked at Shangguan Mi in front of him with an indifferent expression. “Do you have anything to say to me?”

“They want Fei Yang Kingdom to attack Fan Yi Kingdom instead of Shi Long Kingdom.” Shangguan Mi snorted.

Because of her relationship with those people, she managed to get first hand news when Zhang Xu Kingdom fall. Her first reaction when she heard that was disbelief and then she simply didn’t care.

Those people who came to her said that they were all very confident in their move and Fei Yang Kingdom will definitely lose against Shi Long Kingdom.

What they needed was time.

Time so that they could truly build better forces to face Fei Yang Kingdom and pay back for all the losses they had suffered on the frontline due to the skirmish so far.

But they couldn’t really decide on what Fei Yang Kingdom was planning to do.

“Do you think my position is so high that I can decide on their plan?” Shangguan Yu sneered.

“You’re a prince.” Shangguan Mi looked at Shangguan Yu without fear. After getting the backing from these people, Shangguan Mi basically gained back the confidence that she would be able to be more superior than her damnable cripple ‘brother.’

Shangguan Yu snorted. “A cripple prince to be more exact. If I want to influence their thoughts more, I need to have more power.”

Shangguan Mi frowned. Those people had already infiltrated the court before but due to the cleanup on the court during Emperor Yang Zhou’s inauguration, they were all almost completely wiped up. The rest were only people with relatively low position without any right to speak.

Since that was the case, it was simply impossible for them to influence the court and had the right to speak.

If only it was possible, they also wanted to buy the high ranked officials. Unfortunately, many of them were loyal to Fei Yang Kingdom and refused their offer without hesitation. One of them even reported the spy and nearly thwarted their operation in Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City.

Thus, they silently worked up.

So far, the one with the highest position was only a rank 6 official, which was still very low ranked and couldn’t touch many confidential matters.

The other one was Shangguan Yu, who was a prince that was recruited into the Imperial Family. Even though his power was limited due to the fear of having princes rebel against the Imperial Family, he still had more say because of his influence.

With him had already started to build his power slowly but surely, Shangguan Yu’s influence was already much better than when he first stepped into the court.

“I’ll try to talk with them.”

lightsΝοvεl ?οm Shangguan Yu hummed and then waved his hand, his manservant stepped forward and handed a bamboo scroll to him.

“I have found your father.”

Shangguan Mi was stunned. “What, how did you…”

“There are some good forces that can be used with enough money.” Shangguan Yu didn’t elaborate how he managed to find Shangguan Mi’s father. He simply handed the bamboo scroll to Shangguan Mi. “Of course, I took the money from your pay.”

Shangguan Mi’s fingers were clenched to form a fist and looked at Shangguan Yu with great hatred. If only it was possible, she wanted to kill this person in front of her. But it was impossible.

The only reason why those b*stard contacted her in the first place was to make use of her connection to Shangguan Yu. With their relationship on the surface, it would not look strange for Shangguan Yu to pay a visit to her without attracting much attention.

After all, the hatred between these two apparent ‘half siblings’ were clear to anyone who knew the incident.

It was just that many people pretended that they knew nothing.

“He told me a lot of interesting thing.” Shangguan Yu pointed at the bamboo scroll. “If you’re interested in seeing it, you can take a look.”

Shangguan Mi looked at Shangguan Yu warily but didn’t take the bamboo scroll. She had the feeling that Shangguan Yu was not showing this to her out of kindness.

As for her so called father?

She never met him and didn’t have any affection whatsoever towards him. For her, he was nothing more than a stranger who didn’t have any relationship with her in the slightest bit.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Shangguan Mi gritted her teeth.

It was just her father, right?

There was no harm in knowing about this damn matter.

At this time, Shangguan Yu had already left. He had said everything he wanted to say and the rest could be said in a few more months. There was no interest for him to stay any longer in the same room with this woman.

Shangguan Mi looked at the bamboo scroll and read the content.

The first half was the secret of her birth. Her mother got pregnant due to her meeting with her biological father. After she was pregnant, her mother got into Shangguan Family and pretended that her daughter is the child of Shangguan Family. Because she’s a daughter, the family didn’t seem to care that the child was born after 7 months and not 9.

Since Shangguan Mi was a bit smaller because her mother was not in a good condition, the doctors there thought that she was simply born prematurely and might be a bit weaker than others. Thus, the secret of Shangguan Mi’s birth remained unknown until Shangguan Yu dug it out.
