The Prince Bride's

44. Hidden Intent.

"What?! you want to burn down the third prince's residence?"

Su Ho steadily nodded, this plan he had arranged as neatly as possible and just execution. But before that he still had to tell his mother about his crazy plan.

"It's just to threaten prime minister Lian, Mother. He must realize that if rejecting us is not a good thing, he will eventually beg to be able to work with us."

A few days ago Su Ho had serious talks with prime minister Lian. He invited the prime minister to join his camp, but like previous requests, he was again rejected. The old man said he would not participate at all in the struggle for the throne.

That of course made Su Ho upset instead of playing, as if his pride had been dropped on the bottom. Su Ho had the idea to burn down Lan Hua's residence alone after failing to kidnap Lan Hua.

In the hope that prime minister Lian will realize that her son is in danger if he does not follow Su Ho's will.

"Isn't this too risky?"

"No, Mother, I'll make sure my men kill the fire-makers so that no one will be found."

Cruel, that was the one word that could describe Su Ho. Killing the people he paid to start the fire would then kill them without them knowing.

"Well just do it if you're really sure you can remove the trail."

"Of course Mom, I'll do well."

***

"Xiao Du, have you put no one in the know about Lan Hua's departure to the temple?"

Xiao Du nodded, "Of course, Sir. The person from Yan Xunlong who had been following Madame Lan Hua had already made sure there was none."

"It's good if that's the case,"

The soothing bamboo grove and also the natural flute incense are heard due to the friction of the bamboo stems with the wind. This atmosphere is so soothing, especially here there is no other building besides this spacious enough residence.

This place was the place that Qian Yue used to store rare herbs whether it was alive or dried. Not only that, this place also stored many rare treasures such as rare poisons and also very powerful medicines.

This residence is behind a hill, merging with the forest and surrounded by bamboo forests, and, although the guard was not too tight but Qian Yue had already predicted confidently if there would be no one who would come to know of this place. Due to the existence of a sacred temple, the animals on this hill are strictly forbidden to be hunted, people come to the temple and no one has the intention to explore the forest foothills.

Someone in black clothes came into the room, "Young Master's report, Miss Lian is already in the backyard."

Qian Yue nodded at him, he indeed told his men to kidnap Lan Hua. And bring him to this place.

Qian Yue immediately went to go to the backyard to meet Lan Hua, the woman still regained her senses with both hands and feet tied and her eyes covered by cloth.

Qian Yue untied the hands and feet first, but apparently it made Lan Hua instantly rebel.

"Who are you! What do you want, huh?!"

Lan Hua had not even started praying in the temple, she would ask the monk to purify her first but a group of people suddenly came and summed her up. Not giving him any space to move at all and instead bringing him up to this place.

"Don't fuck around!"

Qian Yue did not answer him, instead getting closer to remove Lan Hua's blindfold. Lan Hua could see again.

"It turns out you! What else do you want to do with me?"

"Well, guess what I'm gonna do?"

Lan Hua spontaneously stepped back, she certainly still remembered the incident at that time where her chastity was snatched away by the man before her. At that time Lan Hua could not do anything even just to protect herself.

Lan Hua did hate the incident, she became part of the wound that made her dislike if she had to meet this man in front of her, even though he had come to help her.

"Better kill me than I'll be your whore!"

"Just calm down, I won't do anything."

"Why did you bring me here, and where is this place?"

Lan Hua looked around him, there was a large residence, an artificial waterfall that was not too high and the water was flowing like a river out somewhere.

A cherry tree stands tall, but strangely it blooms heavily with its flower color as red as blood. It looks like some cherries but it is deep black, this cherry tree is so strange and unusual.

Other than those cherry trees, there were still a few other plants embedded in the ground but they looked so well-preserved, no weeds crawling around them.

"What is this place?"

"Do you believe you're the first person I brought here?"

That remark was not wrong, other than the members of the Fei pavilion no other outsiders were invited here by Qian Yue. This place is very secret and becomes a valuable storage warehouse that he has been getting with great difficulty.
