Chapter 1472: Conspiracy!
Butler Liu snorted coldly and said," Hmph, you"re just incompetent! And you still want money?! Dream on!"
With that, he planned to leave.
Seeing that Butler Liu was about to turn around and leave, the man was instantly furious. His face was livid as he gritted his teeth and said," Butler Liu, if you really don"t give me the money, you will regret it!"
Butler Liu didn"t stop at all. Not long after he left, a shrill cry came from behind him," Ah!"
Butler Liu turned his head and said sarcastically with a contemptuous expression," Hmph, a commoner actually wants to threaten me. He really overestimates himself!"
Soon, he quickened his pace and left.
Not long after that, someone found a corpse in the alley. It looked like he was drunk and had fallen to his death. However, even if the death were reported to the authorities, it wouldn"t cause much of a commotion. Moreover, this person was courting death.
Therefore, the dead in the alley was like a small stone thrown into a lake. There were no ripples at all.
Butler Liu walked out of the alley and planned to go straight back to the residence. However, he was stopped by someone on the street.
"Butler Liu, my master invites you!" A guard in black clothes holding a sword stopped Butler Liu and said.
Butler Liu frowned and asked," Who is your master?"
The person said, "You"ll know when you get there!"
Butler Liu thought for a moment and followed the guard into a teahouse. Then, he was taken to a private room.
"Master, the Liu family"s butler Liu is here! Butler Liu, please!" After the guard made a gesture, he watched Butler Liu enter the private room and quickly left. He closed the door of the private room and guarded the door.
As soon as Butler Liu entered, he saw a woman in a white dress and a veil. He was very puzzled and asked," Who are you?"
Xiao Jingyu"s charming voice said faintly," Don"t care who I am. I know that your Liu family wants to deal with Lin Yuelan, so I plan to cooperate with you!"
Butler Liu was shocked and said in panic," You"re talking nonsense. We didn"t want to deal with Princess Gu at all!"
Even though this princess of the Guguo was a peasant girl, she was not someone that the Liu family could easily touch.
Because that woman was no longer as simple as the princess of Guguo, she still had General Jiang, the richest man in the Willow Villa, and His Majesty behind her.
Some time ago, even under the aggressive threats of the Black Clouds Kingdom, His Majesty did not agree to marry Lin Yuelan to the Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom, Xiao Jingrui.
Therefore, with such a strong background, wouldn"t the Liu family be courting death if they went to deal with the powerful princess of Guguo?
When Xiao Jingyu heard this, she sneered and said, "You didn"t want to deal with Princess Guguo. Then, do you want me to go to the court to be a witness for the life lost in the deep well alley just now?"
Butler Liu"s pupils constricted as he questioned sternly," How dare you follow me? Who are you?"
Xiao Jingyu smiled and said," Butler Liu, I"ve already said that you don"t have to care who I am. You just have to pa.s.s a message to your master! If he wanted to take revenge, Lin Yuelan"s wine-tasting banquet would be a great opportunity!"
Butler Liu had been staring at this woman suspiciously. He had some guesses about her ident.i.ty.
He thought for a moment and said," Alright!"
Xiao Jingyu said coldly, "Butler Liu is indeed a smart person! Then quickly go and report to your master that I will be waiting for your master here tomorrow morning."
With that, Xiao Jingyu left.
Looking at Xiao Jingyu"s departing figure, he frowned and left the teahouse.
After Butler Liu returned to the Liu residence, he reported to his master, Lord Liu," Master, this is what happened. Do you think that person is Princess Linglong of the Black Clouds Kingdom?"
When Lord Liu heard this, he frowned and said," If this person really looks like what you described, then this person is very likely to be Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom."
When Butler Liu heard that, he asked in confusion," Then why did Princess Linglong cooperate with us to deal with Lin Yuelan? Could it be because of General Jiang? Or was it because Lin Yuelan had humiliated her a few times, so now she wanted to take revenge?"
Lord Liu thought for a moment and shook his head." No, I think there must be something we don"t know that makes Princess Linglong hate Lin Yuelan so much."
