Chapter 269

Just when Zhu Zhuqing was in trouble and didn't know how to explain it, the housekeeper from the mansion hurried over.

"master!"

The housekeeper Guo Chun saluted Zhu Wuwu, sweating profusely and looking a little anxious.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't hesitate. There are no outsiders here." Zhu Wuying waved his hand and said in a casual tone.

"The Queen sent someone to send a message asking the master to come to the palace," the housekeeper said.

"Enter the palace? Queen?"

Zhu Wuwu was a little confused. This late-night emergency summons was rare, not to mention that the one who summoned him was not the emperor, but the queen. This was something unprecedented.

The housekeeper came forward and handed over a letter: "The father-in-law who came here also brought this letter."

Zhu Wuli took out the letter paper inside. There was not much content on the letter paper, but the news conveyed in it shocked Zhu Wuli.

"Davis is dead!? His Majesty is in danger of being poisoned!?"

As soon as these words came out, Feng Yuan and the housekeeper both looked shocked and their eyes widened. Zhu Zhuyun's heart skipped a beat and his eyes subconsciously turned to Wang Bin, who was calm and relaxed at the side.

Wang Bin told himself that he poisoned Davis, and now these two things are absolutely inseparable from Wang Bin.

"What a terrible man. Killing the prince of an empire is like crushing an ant, and he also plotted against the king of a country. I'm afraid the Star Luo Empire will be in chaos for a while." Zhu Zhuyun I thought to myself.

Zhu Wuwu put away the letter, his face a little solemn. However, when he glanced subconsciously, he found Wang Bin and Zhu Zhuqing with unusually calm expressions.

Normally, no one would be surprised by this kind of news, but Wang Bin and Zhu Zhuqing were extremely calm, as if they had known that this would happen.

"Ask the father-in-law to wait for a moment. I will change my clothes and come right away." Zhu Wu said in a deep voice.

"Yes, sir."

The butler nodded repeatedly and trotted away, but his movements were a little staggered. He must have been frightened by the news and his legs were weak.

The prince is dead and the emperor is in danger. If he fails to survive, the Star Luo Empire will fall into a leaderless situation. There is a huge crisis hidden behind this.

"Master, what's going on? Who is so capable that he can enter the palace, kill a prince, and poison the emperor?" Feng Yuan asked nervously.

Zhu Wuwu looked at Wang Bin and Zhu Zhuqing, and his voice was a little low: "Zhuqing, Wang Bin, I see your expressions, why do you seem to be expecting it?"

When Wang Bin heard this, he raised the corner of his mouth and stood up: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from my uncle. Yes, I did it."

"What! You..." Feng Yuan was so shocked that she covered her mouth.

Although Zhu Wuli was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised to hear Wang Bin admit it personally.

"How did you do it? Didn't you just come to Xingluo City today? How did you have time to enter the palace and poison me?"

Zhu Wulan lowered his voice and asked hurriedly.

"I don't need to enter the palace. Besides, the palace is heavily guarded. I can't get in even if I want to." Wang Bin smiled slightly, "Isn't this Davis? I buried poison in his body, and then I saw the right moment. It almost activates the toxin.”

Zhu ignored his pupils and shrank: "Do you know what you are doing! Davis is Zhuyun's fiancé, and he is also your brother-in-law. Our Zhu family has been married to the royal family for generations. If the Dai family falls, our Zhu family will also fall. There is nothing to rely on.”

"If the Dai family does not fall, will the Zhu family really have something to rely on? In their eyes, the Zhu family is just a vassal of the royal family. Everything the Zhu family has was given by the royal family. They will not pay attention to the Zhu family at all."

"Uncle, I believe you know very well that His Majesty doesn't even care about his own son. Do you think he really cares about the Zhu family? Because of your contradictory words, he punished you with being shut down and banned from participating in politics. If you never If Tian offends his majesty again, is it possible that he will directly destroy the Zhu family?"

Zhu Wulan's expression darkened, he lowered his head and remained silent.

The Zhu family's current status is really just taking advantage of the martial soul. It can form a martial soul fusion skill with the royal family's White Tiger martial soul, but as Wang Bin said, this status is too frivolous.

Accompanying an emperor is like accompanying a tiger, and besides, Dai Qingcang is a fickle and headstrong person. If one day he accidentally offends the emperor, he may directly destroy the Zhu family.

As for the martial soul fusion technique, the Zhu family can be controlled as a fertility machine, as long as they can produce offspring with the ghost cat martial soul.

"Uncle, think about it again. In these years of marriage with the Dai family, has the Zhu family really been living well? How many people from the Zhu family have been implicated in death by the cruel rules of the Dai family? Compared to other families The population is booming, how many members of the Zhu family are left now?"

Seeing that Zhu Wuwu was a little shaken, Wang Bin quickly added.

Zhu Wulan's expression froze, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.

The current queen's name is Zhu Wushuang, and she is Zhu Wuwu's cousin.

Zhu Wushuang also has two younger sisters. They are about the same age as Zhu Wuli, and they all played well when they were young.

But it was also because of the royal family's selection of heirs that Zhu Wushuang's two sisters, together with their fiancés, died in the hands of Dai Qingcang.

Although he knew that this kind of thing was a family rule, and even though Zhu Wuwu accepted this reality, he was always in pain in his heart. He would feel very sad every time he recalled the happy times when his brothers and sisters played together when he was a child.

This is why he tried his best to save the lives of Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing, because he really didn't want to bear the pain of losing a loved one again.

"What plans do you have in the future?" Zhu ignored and asked in a deep voice.

"Once His Majesty dies, the current royal family will be unable to choose anyone who can control the government. They will be leaderless, and the government and the public will be shaken. Countless people will begin to covet the supreme position."

"It's always important to have a big fist," Wang Bin said.

"That's right, but our Zhu family's fists are not big. Although our Zhu family has the position of duke, we don't have any military power in our hands. We are not even as good as those who are just earls and the lords of a city. Now that I think about it, the Dai family has always been They are watching out for us." Zhu Wulan sighed.

"I don't know much about officialdom. I would like to ask my uncle to put more effort into trying to win over some people. After all, these officials will still be needed when the government is restored. As for the army, it doesn't matter. Even if it is a million-strong army, I can still do it. Let them not exert any strength." Wang Bin said confidently.

Of course he has this ability. He can let Caesar or Huan Du Qingtian run into a crowd and put some poison gas. Even if it is not fatal, it can completely make people lose their fighting ability.

After all, the army in this world is still dominated by ordinary people, and ordinary people without soul power are not much better than grasshoppers in the eyes of soul masters who are good at using poison.

"Okay, then I, Zhu Wuyi, will sacrifice my life to accompany you today. The future of our Zhu family will rest on you!"
