The little eunuch accepted it happily and left.
After he left, the servant looked at his master and asked softly, “Master, should we arrange for someone?”
“What do you think?” Shang Ningshen glanced at his servant coldly.
They definitely had to kill Qian Jiyun. After all, wasn’t that why he had come here in the first place—to take Qian Jiyun’s life?
However, he did not care about Qian Jiyun’s life because he still had to find someone—Shang Ningluo. He would only be able to attack Qian Jiyun in peace after finding her.
“Since he’s back, his consort must be back too. Send someone to the Prince Zhan Yun Residence immediately. You must find An Jiuyue!”
He could not find anyone else around Qian Jiyun. An Jiuyue was the only one left.
He was certain that even if Qian Jiyun could abandon everyone and act alone, he would definitely bring An Jiuyue with him.
But now that Qian Jiyun had entered the palace, he would not bring An Jiuyue with him. Hence, An Jiuyue had to be in the Prince Zhan Yun Residence.
If he captured An Jiuyue, Qian Jiyun would have no choice but to hand over Shang Ningluo.
“Yes, Master. I’ll make the arrangements.”
Seeing that he was about to leave, Shang Ningshen called out to him, “Wait.”
“Master, do you have any other instructions?” the servant asked.
“Send more skilled experts. Don’t underestimate that woman. She’s a medicine refiner,” Shang Ningshen reminded.
He would never underestimate anyone. Even if An Jiuyue was a useless medicine refiner, he would not underestimate her—especially considering she was Qian Jiyun’s wife.
Did Qian Jiyun ever have someone useless by his side? They were all remarkable.
“Yes, Master. I understand,” the servant replied and walked out.
After a while, the eunuch sent by the old Emperor arrived and relayed his message, asking Shang Ningshen to follow him.
However, Shang Ningshen started putting on airs.
He did not follow the eunuch, instead asking him to relay a message, urging the old Emperor to ambush Qian Jiyun on his way back from the palace to his residence.
Firstly, he wanted to fulfill the old Emperor’s wish. Secondly, he wanted to stall for time so that he could have enough time to capture An Jiuyue.
Seeing that Shang Ningshen was unwilling to leave Qi Feng Hall, the eunuch did not force him. Instead, he relayed his words back to the imperial study.
“Ambush and kill him on his way back to his residence?”
The old Emperor’s expression darkened.
Would an intelligent person like him do such an obvious thing? If Qian Jiyun was killed on his way back to his residence, everyone would know that he had sent someone to do it, right?
Besides, it was hard to say if they could actually kill Qian Jiyun.
Qian Jiyun was no small fry. Who knew how many shadow guards protected him?
Would they have waited until now if Qian Jiyun could be killed so easily? If it had been that easy, Qian Jiyun’s corpse would have turned into ashes by now.
The eunuch looked at his master and asked softly, “Your Majesty, do you… really want to do this?”
Killing Prince Zhan Yun was a bold idea. Although the old Emperor had tried to do this many times, ambushing him on his way back from the palace to his residence was a first, wasn’t it?
