Chapter 284: Abdication of the Emperor (3)
Translator: DRZ Editor: Rock
Gao Tu's eyes suddenly narrowed. "Since you're not interested in the throne, then why are you here?"
Having heard what he said, both Yun Luofeng's arms lazily rested on the palanquin and she spoke, "Purely because… you're not pleasing to the eye! That's all!"
I just do not like looking at you, and I want you to abdicate. What can you do to me?
Gao Tu was nearly angered to the point of madness. He had always thought that he was extremely unbridled, but only after being compared with this young lady before him did he understand what was truly unruly and arrogant!
Such madness and arrogance that doesn't consider what the masses think, who other than this young lady could have done it so proper and expect it as a matter of course?
"Yun Luofeng, you're simply presumptuous." Gao Tu shouted sternly as he commanded his troops, "Men, take her down!"
However, no one came forth even after he gave his command. Within the entire palace, only the wailing voices of those Imperial Guards could be heard.
"Men!" Gao Tu's expression changed once again as he continued shouting, "Where have all of you gone to? Why aren't you taking them down?!"
The autumn wind blew and the fallen leaves flew.
A maple leaf fell before Gao Tu, making him seem so lonely and pitiful.
"Even if you shouted until your voice broke, no one will come to save you."
The young lady's voice contained viciousness. If someone was unaware of the circumstances, they would have the impression that she was about to do immoral things to Gao Tu.
"Yun Luofeng!" Gao Tu gnashed his teeth in hatred, but his heart had fiercely clutched. "What have you done?"
He did not know what happened.
Even if numerous Imperial Guards had fallen on the floor, there were not only just these guards within the palace. Yet, why have the others disappeared?
"All the guards within the Imperial Palace have been disabled by my men," Yun Luofeng devilishly raised the corner of her lips, "so, no one will be coming to save you!"
At this moment, Gao Tu's facial color turned thoroughly pale. His footsteps staggered and luckily, Noble Consort Mu supported him from behind so that he did not fall down.
"Gao Ling," Yun Luofeng's line of sight turned towards Gao Ling, "Do you still remember these people around me?"
Gao Ling, who did not originally take notice, turned towards the subordinates alongside her after hearing her words.
If these people had appeared before him individually, perhaps he might not have recognized them. However, at this moment, these people were connected with Yun Luofeng and so, Gao Ling had no choice but to enter into a state of pondering.
"These… are the bodyguards and servant maids that I had helped Yun Luo to recruit?" Gao Ling hesitated for a long time before he spoke this sentence.
He still held the idea of it being impossible deep down inside him. After all, no one was more clear about the aptitude of those people he had recruited. So how could they be these trained soldiers before him?
He was absolutely unbelieving of it!
However, Yun Luofeng's answer caused his heart to fall into the ice cellar instantly.
"That's right. I should also thank you. If it weren't for you, it wouldn't be possible for the Yun Family to have recruited so many people in such a short time."
Gao Ling's face turned from his initial paleness to be completely drained of color. He tightly gripped onto his trembling hands as his entire body was shaking like a leaf in the wind.
"Impossible. The people who I found for you were trash! They wouldn't be able to have much of an improvement their entire lives, so how could they be these people?" Gao Ling's voice contained madness, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
No one was clearer than him on the abilities of these people! It was obvious that he couldn't believe it.
