Chapter 725 - My Decision!

When The Empress Dowager finished speaking, the King found that her words made sense.

He had been spoiling Lord Huai since he was little, and he could understand that he might lose his temper somehow. And now Xunyang being missing was just a tiny matter known to a few people and it could be retrieved. As long as he could bring her back, he could drop this and pretend nothing had ever happened.

The King looked at Zhou Huaijin seriously. He was waiting for him to make the confession.

Zhou Huaijin, however, still had no expression on his face, despite what the Empress Dowager said.

”You think I did it, father?” Zhou Huaijin smiled ironically. ”I am a spoiled Lord, but I am not a stupid person. Xunyang is my sister, but why should I stop her from marrying the prince of the North Qi Land or steal her away?”

”…”

”Well, the court is always well-guarded, and even when I tried to visit my mother, I could only visit her in the court based on the rules. It is utterly impossible for me to take away a princess!”

”…”

”Then why should I stop Xunyang from marrying the Prince of the North Qi Land? The Prince of the North Qi Land is a huge difference from the Young Master of the Gu Family. What does the Young Master of the Gu Family have? He might be flourishing right now, but he is just a minor minister. Xuan Lin, on the other hand, is the Prince, and he is going to take the throne of the North Qi Land! I would be protected with guarantee if my own sister is able to marry someone like that! Why should I stop Xunyang from marrying him? That was a great deal for me!”

”…”

”I also want to find Xunyang right now, why would you suspect that it is my plan?” Zhou Huaijin looked very confused.

Hearing what Zhou Huaijin said, the King felt totally shocked. No one had ever thought about this level.

For Zhou Huaijin, it was indeed a great deal, and he did not have to turn it down.

The Kingʼs expression became even more serious.

He had found that he had taken everything too simply. He had made a huge mistake. If Zhou Huaijin had not done that, then the person who did not want Zhou Huaijin to get the deal would be the biggest suspect.

Who could that be?

The King fell into contemplation.

The Empress Dowager had noticed the changing situation. She found that things were turning in a very weird direction.

She had never expected that Zhou Huaijin had become so thoughtful and good at argument. She took a look at Zhou Huaijin and then at Gu Chaoyan.

The Empress Dowager had a terrible look on her face.

She had allowed the King to approve of the marriage, because she wanted Zhou Huaijin to marry some notorious woman so that Zhou Huailing could be in an advantageous situation, but what she had not expected… Was that this woman was sinister and tricky. She had even made Zhou Huaijin even more tricky.

If the King kept thinking alongside what he had analyzed, things would turn ugly.

The Empress Dowager interrupted him directly. ”King, you have to look into this matter. The Queen has always objected to Xunyang getting married to someone faraway.”

The King looked at his own mother. He found that his mother was getting too old to think clearly. How could she suspect the Queen and Lord Huai under such circumstances?

The King, who had been very furious, snapped seriously as he looked at the Empress Dowager. ”Mother, just take care of what happens back in the harem. Xunyangʼs absence is something I need to deal with, you can just drop it. I have my own ideas.”

The Empress Dowager was startled.
