Chapter 1492

However, after Yuan Chengzhi hesitated for a moment, he actually gave way.

Seeing this, Chen Jialuo understood and led the Honghua Society members to escape in the direction Yuan Chengzhi had opened up.

Kangxi's complexion immediately sank.

His trust in Yuan Chengzhi also fell to the bottom.

He had thought he could rely on his own personality charm to recruit him for his own use.

However, facts proved that he had failed.

Yuan Chengzhi also reacted at this time and subconsciously looked at Kangxi.

Seeing his gloomy complexion, his heart tightened.

Yuan Chengzhi was indeed convinced by Kangxi's great talent and bold vision, and had the intention to serve him.

But when the matter came to a head, he remembered the last wish of his father, Yuan Chonghuan, and could not bear to take action against the Honghua Society.

Yuan Chengzhi's hesitation, wavering, and indecisiveness were evident.

Yuan Chengzhi thought to himself that it was bad.

He remembered Wei Dongting's persuasion before.

With his performance at this time, wouldn't the marriage to Princess Jianning, which Kangxi had already gone back on, be even more indefinitely delayed?

Thinking this, Yuan Chengzhi wanted to make amends.

He suddenly took action to block Luo Bing, who was a step slower because she had to protect Wen Tailai.

Seeing the Golden Snake Sword suddenly stab over, Luo Bing narrowly avoided it.

She shouted angrily:

"What do you mean!"

Yuan Chengzhi said with a look of shame:

"Sorry, I cannot let you leave."

These words were Yuan Chengzhi's explanation.

However, it caused everyone to misunderstand, thinking that he had taken a fancy to Luo Bing's beauty.

Kangxi's eyes were mocking.

If it were before Yuan Chengzhi let Chen Jialuo and the others go, he would definitely have used beauty to win over Yuan Chengzhi.

However, with the precedent of betrayal, Yuan Chengzhi's impression in his eyes was very bad.

He even thought that Yuan Chengzhi letting Chen Jialuo and the others go was to retaliate against him for not granting the marriage to Princess Jianning.

The Honghua Society members who had already escaped the Imperial Study could not help but pause upon hearing this.

Yu Yutong even shouted angrily with his eyes splitting:

"Shameless! Fourth Sister-in-law, I'm coming to save you!"

However, just as he was about to turn back to save her, he was knocked on the back of his neck by Chen Jialuo's quick hands and fainted.

He shouted shamefully to Luo Bing, who was blocked by Yuan Chengzhi:

"Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law, sorry."

After saying that, he led the Honghua Society members and quickly fled. ===== CHAPTER 1494 =====
