"Cough cough!"
Shangguan Xiong couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he coughed twice outside.
Qin Mang's face changed slightly. Why did the voice sound like Shangguan Xiong's? He immediately put on his clothes and walked out. Seeing Shangguan Xiong standing outside, his face instantly turned pale.
He stepped forward and said, "Lord Shangguan, why didn't you let someone know when you came to my residence?"
Shangguan Xiong is now of almost no help to Qin Mang. Therefore, Qin Mang has no respect for Shangguan Xiong. Instead, he blames him for not letting anyone know.
"Haha! If I let someone know, how can I watch His Highness Qin Mang perform this wonderful show?"
Shangguan Xiong said with a forced smile.
Qin Mang's eyes twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "This is my personal matter. It has nothing to do with Lord Shangguan, right?"
"Your Highness Qin Mang, you truly disappoint me. I thought you were ambitious, but I never imagined such a small setback would leave you helpless!"
Shangguan Xiong's expression changed and he said in a cold voice.
"When did this prince become incapable? Don't talk nonsense!"
Qin Mang gritted his teeth and said angrily, thinking that Shangguan Xiong was talking about him recuperating.
"Your Highness Qin Mang, I'm here today to tell you that I've already tricked the eldest prince, Qin Wu, into a trap. Now all I need is a trigger so I can borrow Qin Wu's Emperor's Golden Sword and kill Qin Yu!"
"I wonder if His Highness Qin Mang still has the courage to compete with Qin Yu!"
Shangguan Xiong said coldly.
"Hmm! You tricked my elder brother into a trap? No! My elder brother is a skilled warrior and definitely not a fool like Qin Yu. How did you trick him into falling into the trap?"
Qin Mang was happy at first, but then he became unconvinced.
Shangguan Xiong couldn't help but roll his eyes at Qin Mang and said coldly, "Do you really think Qin Wu is invincible? Let me tell you the truth! Qin Wu only wants to become the crown prince!"
"I've already made an agreement with him. If I lead Qin Yu into committing a serious mistake, he will directly kill Qin Yu with the Emperor's Golden Sword. Your Highness Qin Mang, it depends on whether you dare to intervene now!"
"I join the game myself?"
Qin Mang looked confused.
"That's right! Go find Qin Yu now and drag him along to accept the benefits. That way, he'll be charged with corruption and bribery, and Qin Wu can then kill him with a single blow!"
Shangguan Xiong said viciously.
"He's the crown prince. He's corrupt and abuses his power, so you can't kill him!"
Qin Mang said in shock.
"This is the subtlety of this situation. Qin Wu is determined to become the crown prince. I told him that as long as he kills Qin Yu, I will lead all the civil and military officials to protect him with all my strength and nominate him as the crown prince!"
"He readily agreed, but if he really did it, I would never protect him. By then, Qin Wu and Qin Yu would both be dead. Who would be the crown prince?"
Shangguan Xiong said coldly.
"Of course it's me!"
Qin Mang was shocked.
Then he said, "There's no time to lose. I'll do it now. If it's too late, that bastard Qin Yu will have to leave Kyoto!"
After saying that, Qin Mang immediately ordered his men to do the job, and he quickly headed towards the prince's residence.
Looking at his leaving back, a hint of viciousness flashed in Shangguan Xiong's eyes!
If Qin Mang had treated him respectfully and if this had not happened today, he would never have let Qin Mang get involved!
However, Qin Mang disappointed him too much. Since that was the case, he decided to take him into account and then lure Qin Wu to kill Qin Yu and Qin Mang!
