"Eh? Yin Palace Master, long time no see! Why do you look so haggard? Are you disappointed in love? Oh, I get it now. Your two disciples must have been disobedient and unfilial. Do you want Ling Ling to teach them a lesson for you? " Seeing that Yin Baiyue had suddenly appeared behind him with bloodshot eyes, Ling Dong began to tease him instead!
It was fine if Ling Dong didn't mention it, but the moment he did, Yin Baiyue's suppressed anger immediately rushed to the top of his head! His two most filial disciples were almost killed by this bastard Ling Dong in just one night!
The pain in Yin Baiyue's heart was something that no one else could understand! Those were the fruits of his painstaking efforts over the past few decades. He didn't even spend so much effort on his own son!
"Ling Dong!" A ferocious light flashed across Yin Baiyue's eyes as he roared, "Ling Dong, as an Apothecary of the Apothecary Palace, how dare you not bow before the Palace Master? Has no one ever taught you the importance of seniority? Men, drag him down and give him fifty lashes of the whip. Punish him for his disrespect! "
In Ling Dong's opinion, Yin Baiyue's roar was a stupid move! However, Ling Dong also believed that Yin Baiyue's words came from the bottom of his heart!
No one was a saint, and everyone had their own emotions! When anger accumulated over a long period of time, it could be very terrifying! Ling Dong believed that Yin Baiyue must have been unable to avenge the death of his two disciples even though he knew who the murderer was!
With nowhere to vent his anger, he ended up like this!
Ling Dong's guess was right. Yin Baiyue had been holding this grudge for two months. Ever since his two disciples died, even though he knew Ling Dong was the culprit, he couldn't find a way to exact his revenge. Thus, his anger grew stronger and stronger, and the entire Pill Emperor Palace never had a moment of peace. Just the number of servants killed by Yin Baiyue alone was more than ten!
However, no matter how many people he killed, Yin Baiyue could not vent his anger and frustration! Today, when he saw Ling Dong's sudden appearance, Yin Baiyue's eyes turned red in an instant!
Yin Baiyue really wanted to teach Ling Dong a lesson. He wished he could whip Ling Dong a few hundred times or even kill Ling Dong to vent his anger.
However, Yin Baiyue was destined to be unable to vent his anger!
Disregarding everything else, when Yin Baiyue shouted that he wanted to drag Ling Dong down and give him fifty lashes of the whip, the guards nearby did not move at all. They all knew that Ling Dong was Prefecture Master Yuan's beloved disciple. Prefecture Master Yuan wasn't someone to be trifled with. Whipping Prefecture Master Yuan's disciple was no different from courting death!
Moreover, it was rumored that Yin Baiyue's two disciples were killed by Prefecture Master Yuan because they had offended Ling Dong. In comparison, Prefecture Master Yuan was much more ruthless!
"What? Are you all deaf? Are you looking for trouble? Why aren't you moving?" Prefecture Master Yin shouted like a madman when he saw that no one was carrying out his order.
While the guards were in a difficult position, an even more explosive voice suddenly came from afar, "Yin Baiyue, f * ck your ancestors! Which one of you move?! Whoever dares to touch a hair on my disciple, I'll make his entire family suffer! Whoever dares to make my disciple bleed, I'll make his entire family bleed!
Yin Baiyue, what's wrong with my disciple being disrespectful to you? Even if I want to slap you, there must be a reason behind it! Who was the one who was shameless enough to do such a wicked thing first?! You still have the cheek to be angry? You deserve it! If you're angry, you should vent it on your wife. Why did you vent it on my disciple?! "
"Uh … Greetings, Master!" Upon hearing Yuan Chen's rude words, Ling Dong's face turned red. 'Can you please pay attention to your image? You're a person of virtue and prestige!' Of course, Ling Dong was very grateful to Yuan Chen for being so protective of his disciple.
When the guards saw that Palace Master Yuan Chen was openly protecting Ling Dong, they secretly rejoiced and quietly took a few steps back. 'I'll leave this fight to you two Old Immortals!' they thought to themselves.
"Oh, Dong 'er is back! In the future, you don't have to care about this old bastard when you see him! If anyone dares to touch you, I, Yuan Chen, am not just a decoration. Hmph! " After saying that, Yuan Chen spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm and left with Ling Dong like a proud rooster.
Yin Baiyue was stunned on the spot.
In fact, Yuan Chen didn't just do that to support Ling Dong. These days, the Pill Emperor Palace was in a mess because of Yin Baiyue. Yuan Chen couldn't stand it anymore and scolded Yin Baiyue.
After being scolded by Yuan Chen, Yin Baiyue calmed down. However, Yuan Chen's scolding had awakened Yin Baiyue from his state of accumulating anger. Or rather, he was awakened from his anger.
"Old Master Yuan, Little Bastard Ling, you asked for it!" Staring at Yuan Chen and Ling Dong who were leaving, the anger in Yin Baiyue's eyes suddenly turned into an extremely vicious glint.
.....
"Dong 'er, there's something I'm sorry about. I can't help you with! I'm ashamed! " Ling Dong was pulled into the study room of the East Hall by Yuan Chen. After catching up with each other, Yuan Chen suddenly said those words in a very ashamed manner, which made Ling Dong confused.
"Master, what are you talking about? If you can't help me, then so be it! By the way, master, I still haven't figured out what you're talking about. "Ling Dong asked.
"What else could it be? Of course, it's about my disciple's wife! A few days ago, Yin Baiyue and You Shansong suddenly joined forces. They supported my disciple's rival, that Vice Pavilion Master Chi, and the two princes behind them. With that, there's nothing I can do … "Yuan Chen said in an ashamed manner.
When Ling Dong heard that, he heaved a sigh of relief. So, this was what Yuan Chen was talking about. He thought it was something serious.
"Master, that's why I'm here today!" Ling Dong continued.
Yuan Chen sighed and said, "Sigh, Dong 'er, even if I do my best to help you with this, it'll be like pouring a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. Why don't you persuade your nephew's wife to give up the Pavilion Master position? That way, you'll suffer less losses. Don't you know that the two princes and the two great palaces have joined forces … "
"Master, let me finish first. I have another plan! "Ling Dong said helplessly. However, after listening to Yuan Chen's analysis, Ling Dong was even more confident in his plan.
If Yuan Chen did not realize this, it would be even more effective when the time came.
"Oh? Tell me! "Yuan Chen said.
"Master, Vice Pavilion Master Chi has joined forces with two great palaces and two princes to support him. Have you noticed that Vice Pavilion Master Chi has made a fatal mistake?" Ling Dong asked.
Yuan Chen pondered for a moment before he said in surprise, "A fatal mistake? Why didn't I notice it? "
"Master, it's not a big deal for two great palaces to support one person. However, think about it. What's the most important reason for the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince to support Vice Pavilion Master Chi? What do they want from Vice Pavilion Master Chi? "Ling Dong asked.
"What do they want from him? Do you even need to ask? Of course, they want the massive amount of information that the Pavilion Master of Kuixing Pavilion has! I'm afraid that even the empire's intelligence system is not as good as Kuixing Pavilion's! "Yuan Chen said confidently.
Upon hearing this, Ling Dong smiled confidently. "You're right, master. It's all for the sake of information! Why do the two princes value information so much? "
"That goes without saying. The fight for the throne is for the throne!" Yuan Chen replied casually.
"Master, but only one prince can win the fight for the throne. The information that Kuixing Pavilion has …"
"Oh, I get it now! In this case, even if the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince support Vice Pavilion Master Chi to win the position of Pavilion Master, it will still be a big problem in the future! If you explain the pros and cons to one of them before that and ask Ziyao to support the other one, I'm afraid it will be very effective! "Yuan Chen was not stupid. He immediately understood what Ling Dong was thinking.
Ling Dong smiled and nodded. "You're right, master. That's exactly what I'm thinking!"
Yuan Chen frowned. "It seems that Vice Pavilion Master Chi was the first to submit to the Seventh Prince. We can only start with the Fourth Prince. However, the person behind the Fourth Prince is Yin Baiyue. That old bastard is very unreliable!"
"No, master! Our opponent is the Seventh Prince! "Ling Dong said.
"Why?" Yuan Chen was puzzled.
"Master, in this world, the most hated thing for those in power is betrayal! Master, don't you think that Vice Pavilion Master Chi accepting the Fourth Prince's support is also a form of betrayal to the Seventh Prince? "Ling Dong said.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Chen thought for a while. After a while, he looked at Ling Dong in amazement. Yuan Chen felt that his disciple's thoughts were too terrifying. Even he, an old man who had lived for more than a hundred years, could not compare to him! Was he still a young man who had just turned 20?
"Dong 'er, what do you need me to do? Do you want me to accompany you to meet the Seventh Prince? "Yuan Chen asked as he confirmed Ling Dong's analysis.
"No!" Ling Dong rejected Yuan Chen's suggestion. "Master, you're of noble status. Every move of yours will attract attention! If that's the case, I'm afraid it won't be effective! It's better for you to write a letter and I'll personally meet the Seventh Prince! "
"Heh, you're more thoughtful than I am!" Yuan Chen teased Ling Dong. He had no choice. It was the truth! At this moment, Yuan Chen felt that compared to him, Ling Dong was more like an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years!
"Oh, by the way, teacher, how's the arrangement for the other thing I asked you to do the last time coming along?" After Yuan Chen finished writing the letter, Ling Dong opened his mouth and asked about another matter.
Yuan Chen blew the ink dry and handed the letter to Ling Dong. Then, he said, "Dong 'er, you're referring to Bi Pengcheng, right? A month ago, when His Majesty summoned me, I specifically mentioned it! Currently, His Majesty has already transferred him from the Bright Sword Sect to the imperial capital! A few days ago, he was even given a job as a Light Shaking Guard. Recently, he's already starting to make a name for himself! "
"Oh right, Dong 'er, why are you supporting a declining imperial grandson? Even Bi Pengcheng's father, the Ninth Prince, is only a Duke. Does he have the qualifications to become a Duke? "Yuan Chen suddenly asked.
In response to Yuan Chen's question, Ling Dong smiled mysteriously. "Master, you don't have to ask about this! Your disciple isn't sure either! However, if there's a chance, please support Bi Pengcheng more and give him a chance! In the future, he might even give you a surprise! "
Without waiting for Yuan Chen to reply, Ling Dong bowed and said, "Master, this is an urgent matter. I'll go and meet the Seventh Prince first! As for Bi Pengcheng, please take care of him! "
Bi Pengcheng, whom Ling Dong had asked Yuan Chen to take care of, was one of Ling Dong's backup plans. If he succeeded, Ling Dong would be able to obtain great benefits from this backup plan!
After all, Bi Pengcheng was completely under Ling Dong's control …
