Chapter 579: Reading People’s Minds

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Qingyu thought Zhao Xuzhi was being unreasonable.

Although the Crown Prince had stopped him, he had told him the reason, right?

It was better to believe it than not. If something really happened, as the eldest son of Prince Ning Bei, he would be protected by many people. Perhaps he would be fine, but what about the others?

Would they not be pitiful if he really let them suffer?

Ever since he had followed Master Mo and buried more than 30 sets of bones, Li Qingyu thought he valued human lives more.

Even ordinary people, who were not as noble as them, one should not simply look down on the lives of others.

Zhao Xuzhi frowned. “It’s been two years. Li Qingyu, you’ve changed a lot.”

Li Qingyu’s eyes widened.

H-He had changed?!

Well, that did not make sense.

“Brother Xuzhi, for the sake of our past friendship, I really have to remind you that you can’t go to that place. It’s too strange there...” Li Qingyu was still quite polite.

“Fine.” Zhao Xuzhi smiled. Nobody knew if he heard Li Qingyu or not.

Since he did not get anything valuable out of him, Zhao Xuzhi took his leave shortly after.

The Crown Prince’s convoy set off.

Before they left, Zhao Xuzhi had already asked his men to rest on the spot, as if they were going to stay here for the night.

However, when the Crown Prince’s convoy had left completely and was nowhere to be seen, Zhao Xuzhi stood up and said, “All of you, get on your horses and go to the temple.”

“First Young Master, the Crown Prince’s men just told us that the place is evil and they don’t want us to go there late at night...” The people below said immediately.

Not only that, they even gave each of them a talisman and asked that they carry it with them.

They had to listen to the Crown Prince’s order. Although they found it strange, they still kept it obediently.

However, they did not expect the first young master to be so persistent.

“It’s not like we haven’t searched it during the day. There are no clues at all. I thought perhaps the thief lived in the temple. When a scholar passed by, he would secretly appear and kill him to steal the money,” Zhao Xuzhi said again.

The others fell silent for a while.

How could it be so coincidental that they would see the thief after being here for one night?

The first young master was stubborn.

They were all men, so they were not afraid.

Since the first young master said so, they prepared themselves and got on their horses to set off.

Zhao Xuzhi had his confidants by his side.

“First Young Master, are they our men? They were scared by the Crown Prince’s words and didn’t dare to move... They’re not loyal to you. If they were really in danger, I’m afraid they would abandon you and run away,” the guard said.

“I know. They were only following my Father’s orders to take care of me,” Zhao Xuzhi said coldly.

Earlier, because of Master Mo’s instigation of the princess, his mother had been sent to a temple for cultivation.

He begged hard, but his father did not forgive his mother.

If he had not found an opportunity to obtain such a position, he would be on his way to the fiefdom now.

He had to contribute something to make his father look at him in a new light.

He wanted the Emperor to make him a Commandery Prince so that he could gain his own power. It would be great if he could join the Fourth Prince or Fifth Prince. In short, he could not let the Crown Prince ascend the throne smoothly.

“Just now, someone in the Crown Prince’s team gave them something. It seemed to be some yellow paper. I don’t know what it is... I haven’t had the chance to ask,” the guard said again.

“No need to ask. It’s just some talismans. That Master Mo always puts on an act. Even Father trusts her,” Zhao Xuzhi said.

This Master Mo definitely had some ability, but she was mostly an expert in reading people’s minds.
