Heartless Phoenix Queen - C147
“You’ve come at the right time. I just received the news.” When Helian saw Zi Yuan return, he immediately walked over.
“What news?” When Zi Yuan returned, he noticed that Helian’s expression was a little strange and blurted out involuntarily.
“That bastard actually attacked my people.” Helian said with a strange expression on his face.
“Hmm? “There’s actually such a thing.” The Violet Garden’s expression also turned cold. Soon after, she thought of something and asked.
“How long?”
“It took you less than a quarter of an hour to get out.”
“Mm, don’t worry. The Sixth Prince won’t have any movements during this period of time.” During that period of time, he was playing some tricks with the empress dowager, so the Sixth Prince had to do something. If he were to take action just now, even the Violet Garden would be unable to contain her rage.
“Oh? You mean, you’ve already settled things with the empress dowager? ” At this moment, Helian could not help but heave a sigh of relief in his heart. When the Violet Garden had not returned, Helian had been worried about this matter the entire time. Now that he heard the Violet Garden’s words, he immediately understood.
“Mm, then the empress dowager already agreed upon it.” As Violet Garden spoke, she told Helian Lie about what had happened at the empress dowager’s place. When Helian heard this, his brows relaxed, and then he frowned as he asked.
“You may be sure of this? If that slut was playing some tricks, I’m afraid she wouldn’t be so easy to deal with. ” Helian said before sighing.
“Of course I can’t be sure, so I ordered some people to watch the empress dowager and imprison her. Right now, everyone there is one of ours, and even if she had the means, she wouldn’t be able to use it. Right now, the most important thing is to stabilize the imperial government.” When Zi Yuan said this, he also sighed slightly. Ever since the ministers had died, Zi Yuan knew that if the political situation became unstable, Xi Li and Bei Yue would probably raid them. This would be a huge blow to the Northern Yue.
“Of course I know that. Sigh, it is indeed difficult to slow down the imperial government right now.” Helian Lie couldn’t help but sigh.
“We can first find out who the Sixth Prince is, then …” As Zi Yuan spoke, he also made a downward slashing motion with his hand. Seeing this, Helian Lie’s gaze turned cold. He then frowned and said.
“Killing chickens is naturally a way to stabilize the government. If we kill all the chickens, then who should we kill?” “Could it be that we’re going to kill monkeys?” Helian had been worried that if all the officials of the court had been cleaned up, the imperial government would immediately fall into disarray. Violet Garden naturally understood this.
It was impossible for the country of Northern Yue to only want to split the territory between the country and the outside. If this happened, all the ministers would be replaced, or the country would be bathed in blood, and the country would immediately stop functioning normally. And once a country became chaotic, the countries of Western Li and Dongping would naturally take advantage of this situation to enter the country, which was also what Murong Xiu had been waiting for.
“I know what you’re thinking, so I didn’t attack the Sixth Prince. Once I do, the people behind him will never surface, so we can only wait or send someone to investigate.” Zi Yuan continued.
“I think that some of the people you’ve arranged for to stay in the Minister’s Mansion have already been bribed.”
“Heh, I had indeed never thought about that before. However, looking at it now, I’m afraid that it would be the case.” Helian said this with a self-deprecating smile. No matter how hard I tried to monitor those people, there would always be a loophole.
“There’s no need for you to think too much. As long as we recall Lan Cang, then it’ll be the time for a bloodbath.”
“What do you mean by bloodbath?” Zi Yuan’s killing intent was indeed too strong, but he himself wasn’t much better off. Zi Yuan also felt some of the unnaturalness in Helian’s words, he was already married to him, but it was impossible for him to change his nature after spending so much time as a killer in the last century. At the thought of this, Zi Yuan’s expression relaxed as he pulled Helian Lie’s hand and said.
I know what you are worried about, but there are some things that you are aware of yourself, if a country wants to calm down properly, then it must be bloody. At this moment, those ministers are ready to make a move, some of them actually want to rebel, while some of them are still neutral. When Helian Lie heard this, he also sighed in his heart. At this moment, the Purple Garden might still be a bit more ruthless or perhaps, it might even be more prestigious than him. However, this woman was still his woman, so Helian Lie could not help but speak up when he thought of this.
“I don’t need to worry about you.”
“It’s good that you know this. I might not have done all of this for you to obtain the world, right?” After hearing this, Zi Yuan’s tone also became a bit gentle.
I know that the current Northern Yue is really too chaotic. At this time, if we want to start a war with another, I’m afraid that the entire clan will be wrecked. Originally, I did not want to give Xi Li this opportunity to catch my breath.
“I know, so what we need to do now is not only to calm the internal conflict, but more importantly, we need to guard against the Dongping Kingdom.”
“Dong Ping Kingdom? What does that mean? Could it be that they also made a move? ” Hearing this, Helian Lie was also shocked, and then he asked somewhat puzzledly.
“If it wasn’t for the Sixth Prince daring to act like this, there would be people from other countries supporting him. We just don’t know who these two countries are. Perhaps it’s Murong Xiu, or maybe it’s Feng Lingxue!” At this moment, when he heard what Zi Yuan said, he immediately understood all of this. His expression became somewhat gloomy, he had worked hard to get to the mountain, but the people in his family had been colluded by him. This was something that he would never have thought of before, but Zi Yuan was as fresh and bright as a new mirror. There are many such things in the 21st century. However, Zi Yuan naturally wouldn’t say that out loud. Otherwise, Helian Lie might look at him in any way.
“What you said makes sense. I was indeed a bit muddle-headed. I didn’t even think about it clearly. According to your words, which country would he choose?”
“No, perhaps it’s not some country, but the person behind that person might be someone we want to release, but I know that no matter which country, the Sixth Prince is just a puppet. Even if the other party promised to be the Emperor of the Northern Yue, he wouldn’t have the ability to sit still.” Sixth Prince was a good-for-nothing, so how could he have any future? But Zi Yuan was also wrong. It was this good-for-nothing who successfully tricked her.
“Hmph. That bastard. If I knew earlier, I would have immediately crippled him. Right, is he still in the mansion?” Helian Lie suddenly said.
“Yes, I sent someone to monitor him. Other than the manor, he won’t be able to go anywhere else.” As the Violet Garden spoke, she also looked behind her. Her figure had always been hidden behind her. Soon after, she was caught by the Violet Garden’s gaze and directly floated in before respectfully greeting Helian Lie.
“Mistress, the Empress sent me to the Sixth Prince’s Mansion today to find someone to keep an eye on him. If there is any movement, she will immediately notify me.”
“En, you, Shadow, have done well in this matter.” Helian Lie heaved a sigh of relief. At this point, he definitely could not allow himself to escape.
“Shadow, you’re tired tonight, so take a good rest. But it’s still dark tonight at midnight, so go investigate the officials behind the scenes. Remember, if you want to kill them, kill the biggest one!” The shadow nodded its head and floated out without saying a word. The reason why the purple garden let its shadow leave was probably because no one knew about it other than the shadow.
At this time, the sun was still hidden behind the moon, so naturally, he had not come out. The night was also a guarantee for the success rate of an assassin, and the other point was, if the Sixth Prince took action during this period of time, then the shadow would have to directly kill him!
“The shadow has made great progress now. You have done a great job on this.” Helian said in admiration as he watched the change in the shadow.
“It’s already pretty good for an assassin to be able to create such a shadow. Alright, let’s not talk about these anymore. Have a good rest. Tomorrow will be the reaction of those ministers.” After Zi Yuan finished speaking, Helian wrapped his arms around Zi Yuan’s waist and walked directly to the dragon bed in the palace. These past few days, the two of them had been exhausted to the point that they didn’t have anything to do with each other anymore.
The silhouette was already wandering around the ministers’ residences in the northern city. As for the rest, the silhouette only took it for granted that its master was concerned about it. However, it still had to do something important. At this moment, he had directly arrived at Wang Qing’s residence after taking a walk around the city. As an order official of the imperial government, Wang Qing was actually together with the Sixth Prince. This was for no other reason but because of something called authority.
How could Wang Qing not act when the Sixth Prince had promised to give Wang Qing the position of Prime Minister? At this point, it was time for him to sleep outside, while Wang Qing was still busy with something. Other than him, there was actually another figure in the room.
