CHAPTER 292: CHAPTER 292: IMPERIAL CONCUBINE YI

The Star-picking Tower is a colossal entity deeply rooted within the territories of the Three Kingdoms, and although it is not a nation, it can still confront the courts of the Three Kingdoms.

The Fourteenth Prince has been listed on the assassination bounty board of the Star-picking Tower, and unless the bounty is canceled, assassination attempts on the Fourteenth Prince will be endless.

Qianyang City, Xia Imperial Palace, Cheng’an Palace.

Imperial Concubine Yi, as the Emperor Xia’s most favored consort, resides alone in this enormous palace courtyard.

With the favor of Emperor Xia, and her sons being very promising, Imperial Concubine Yi’s life is quite comfortable.

When one’s life is smooth, naturally, their appearance is also very good.

Feeling content, everything going smoothly, and with various nourishing supplements, despite having borne two sons and a daughter for Emperor Xia, Imperial Concubine Yi remains graceful and alluring.

But at this moment, all of Imperial Concubine Yi’s grace has vanished.

Upon receiving the news that the Fourteenth Prince was placed on the Star-picking Tower’s bounty board, Imperial Concubine Yi seemed to go a little mad.

"Your Highness, the only solution now is to beg His Majesty!"

Everyone knows how terrifying the Star-picking Tower is.

Nanny Qiao is a trusted aide by Imperial Concubine Yi’s side and, after receiving the news, researched the situation of the Star-picking Tower and informed Imperial Concubine Yi of everything.

"Yes, His Majesty!"

Imperial Concubine Yi suddenly came back to her senses, "Right now, only Emperor Xia can save her son!"

Awakened by Nanny Qiao’s words, Imperial Concubine Yi hurriedly headed out.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, wait, wait!"

Nanny Qiao saw Imperial Concubine Yi in a disheveled state and quickly stopped her.

"Nanny Qiao, get out of the way!"

"Saving a life is like putting out a fire. How can I delay when Zhen’er is in danger?"

Imperial Concubine Yi reached out to push Nanny Qiao away.

Nanny Qiao grabbed Imperial Concubine Yi’s hand and said solemnly, "Your Highness, it’s inappropriate for you to meet His Majesty in your current state!"

"In this palace, your honor and favor are supreme. Why is that? You cannot lose your composure!"

Why?

Among the many women in this palace, why does she continue to receive Emperor Xia’s favor?

It is naturally because of her beauty and her gentle understanding.

Awakened once more by Nanny Qiao’s words, Imperial Concubine Yi’s expression slightly eased.

"Nanny Qiao, fortunately, you’re here. Otherwise, I would have made a great mistake!"

Glancing at her reflection in the mirror, Imperial Concubine Yi was startled.

In her current state, appearing before Emperor Xia would likely frighten him.

Although not unkempt, she wasn’t much better off.

If Emperor Xia saw her like this, he probably wouldn’t even give her a second glance. Once she lost the imperial favor, despite holding the highest position in the harem, what good would it do?

With Nanny Qiao’s assistance, Imperial Concubine Yi quickly made herself presentable.

Then, they both hurriedly went to see Emperor Xia.

Upon hearing that the Fourteenth Prince was listed on the Star-picking Tower’s bounty board, Imperial Concubine Yi received the news, and naturally, Emperor Xia received it even earlier.

Emperor Xia was naturally furious about this.

Before Imperial Concubine Yi arrived, Emperor Xia had already convened several key ministers to discuss the matter.

A prince of the nation becoming prey on the bounty board of an assassin organization is an open slap in the face to the Daxia royal family.

However, even when the Three Kingdoms once joined forces, they never managed to completely destroy the Star-picking Tower and ultimately had to compromise.

Now, although Emperor Xia is furious, there is nothing he can do.
