Heartless Phoenix Queen - C148

At this moment, he heard Wang Qing’s slightly anxious tone.

“Have you heard from the ghost wolf when you were outside recently?”

“Ah, how could that be? He also has many names list of people on my hands. At this moment, he has disappeared. I am also at a loss as to what to do.” This person was actually Liu Kui, who had been extremely respectful towards him the day of the wedding. At the same time, Liu Kui was looking at Wang Qing with a helpless expression as he said that the two of them were on the same boat, and that Ghost Wolf did indeed have too many names and resources on him. It was also because the empress dowager trusted him too much that he handed over all the authority to Ghost Wolf.

“Hmph, I don’t know why the empress dowager trusted that ghost wolf so much. Now that the ghost wolf’s gone, the Sixth Prince must be worried to death. We can’t wait.” Wang Qing snorted coldly. Following which, Liu Kui followed up with these words.

“Sir Wang’s words are reasonable. We can’t wait like this any longer. Otherwise, if the emperor finds out, the bloodbath in the imperial court might occur again.” When Liu Kui said this, he couldn’t help but shiver. Then, he looked at Wang Qing and said.

“According to what Sir Wang has said, what should we do next?”

“There’s no news of the Sixth Prince yet, so I don’t know what to do.” Wang Qing said with a frown.

“Hey, why don’t we wait for your orders first? “Wait for his next judgment?” Liu Kui asked when he heard this.

“Heh, Lord Liu, you’re joking now. You and I have nothing better to say. Although Sixth Prince has some skill, if the empress dowager doesn’t give him instructions for his next move, what can he do?” As Wang Qing spoke these words, he also felt a bit frustrated. Even though the Sixth Prince had some brains, his greed for the throne made him forget his true nature. If he was allowed to take the next step, it would only end up with bad results.

“Ah, Lord Wang, you’re right. The Sixth Prince, he …” Liu Kui shook his head as he said this. However, he knew that the Sixth Prince’s welfare was too tempting, so how could they be willing to work for him?

“You and I are both from the empress dowager’s side, it’s too late to say all this now. We’ll start moving separately now.” After Wang Qing said this, he paused for a moment before whispering.

“Lord Liu, I presume you still don’t know that the military talisman from the imperial guards is in my hands. If this rebellion fails, I will hand the military talisman over to the emperor. I’m sure the emperor will also give us a chance to atone for our deeds.”

“Ah, Lord Wang, you truly are the reincarnation of Tathagata. You can only think of this scheme.” In this way, even if the Sixth Prince failed, the two of them would still have a chance of surviving. Originally, they had been walking on a tightrope, but after hearing Wang Qing say this, how could Liu Kui not be happy. Moreover, the shadow on the roof was obedient.

“Then, milord, do you have that name list on your person? In the past few days, I’m afraid that Your Majesty has already paid attention to this name list. You must keep it safe, or else neither of us will have the chance to live!” Liu Kui thought about it for a moment, then spoke up.

“Don’t worry, how can I not care about this matter that has lost my head? I have long since prepared it for you.” After Wang Qing said this, he started to laugh complacently. Then, as if he had thought of something, he started to speak again.

“Lord Liu, I’d still like to trouble you with a trip to see what news the Sixth Prince received from the empress dowager. Time is the most important right now. If we were late, things wouldn’t be looking good.” When Wang Qing said this, he revealed a worried expression. Seeing this, Wang Qing did not doubt him and directly blurted out.

“Good, Sir Wang, since you are so intelligent, it is my honor to be able to work with you. Then I will go to the Sixth Prince’s Mansion and wait for my news here.”

“Okay, haha, then I will be waiting here for news from you, Brother Liu.” After Wang Qing said this, he cupped his hands together and said. Liu Kui also cupped his hands together and left the room. After Liu Kui left the room, Wang Qing also let out a cold laugh.

“Hmph, this time it’s good for you to test the waters, to work with me? That would depend on your identity. ” Wang Qing’s words also caused his shadow to turn cold on the rooftop. This man was very narrow-minded, and since Liu Kui was going to ask the Sixth Prince for information and see if the Sixth Prince’s next move was beneficial to him, if this matter didn’t work out, then he would retreat. He would still be able to protect himself this way. No matter how crafty you are, you will not be able to survive past the night. When he thought of this, the shadow swiftly rushed over. Today, Wang Qing had already received the news and now, he wanted to see where the name list was.

While the shadow was hiding in the room, Wang Qing slowly walked towards a desk. Beside the desk was a vase, and Wang Qing knocked on the vase three times to the left and twice to the right before a door suddenly opened. Wang Qing walked in, and his shadow also flashed as he followed behind her.

His shadow was already so familiar with this kind of environment that he could not see the fire piston in Wang Qing’s hand. Although he was unable to see the shadow that was three meters behind him, suddenly, Wang Qing arrived at the room and impressively found a secret room. The shadow did not enter and it was likely that it would be difficult to be discovered if he were to enter at this moment.

Whoosh! The shadow was like a flash of wind as it charged over in an instant.

“Who is it!?” “Who is it?” The book in his hands disappeared and Wang Qing also screamed in fear. After that, he looked around but didn’t find anyone. For a moment, his heart was filled with fear as well.

“Are you a human or a ghost?”

“Hmph. It doesn’t matter if I’m a human or a ghost. The important thing is that you don’t listen to my words, so you have to be a ghost.” The cold voice of the shadow also sounded at this moment. After Wang Qing heard this, he shook the fire piston in his hand and it scattered in all directions. The shadow’s voice once again sounded at this moment.

“Throw away the fire piston in your hand. Otherwise, you can go see the King of Hell in the next second.”

“Bam!” Wang Qing was actually frightened by this sound and immediately threw away the fire piston.

“My lord, this little one knows my wrongs. Please let me go.” At this moment, Wang Qing was feigning a wronged expression. There was a hint of tears in her voice, but the figure ignored her and continued speaking coldly.

“I ask you, including you, are all these rebels in this book?”

“Ah, no, I didn’t rebel.” When Wang Qing heard this, his heart was like a clap of thunder. How could he not understand that this person was most likely sent by Helian Lie?

“Hmph, you still want to play this game for me?” As the shadow spoke, he swung the concealed weapon in his hand and stabbed it into Wang Qing’s thigh. Wang Qing instantly knelt on the ground and shouted, “My Lord, I know my wrongs. Please forgive me. My lord, if you have anything you want to know, I will tell you.”

“You probably wouldn’t dare to lie. Let me ask you again, who exactly did the Sixth Prince arrange?”

“Excluding me, there’s only two people left. One is me, and the other is the Liu Kui from earlier.” Wang Qing also wanted to know if the conversation between the two of them had been discovered by the shadow. If not, then there was still hope for him to explain himself. Unexpectedly, the shadow stabbed at him with another concealed weapon.

“I advise you not to play with me, I already know about your conversation just now. Now let me ask and you can answer, if there’s any long-windedness, you won’t be able to live past the next second. If you cooperate, I will give you a chance to retire.” The shadow had also learned a lot from Zi Yuan. It was true that making a dark face first and then a white face later on would cause one to behave obediently. When Wang Qing heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately spoke up while enduring the pain.

“Don’t worry, I’ll tell you everything.”

“Leave the soldier token to me.”

“Alright, alright. Yes, yes. Lord is so dark, how can I give it to you?” Wang Qing suddenly said at this moment.

“You just need to throw it up.” At this moment, Wang Qing suddenly launched himself forward, a dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, and he thrust it towards the shadow. When the shadow saw this, its legs directly stepped on Qing Qing’s shoulder, and with a sweep of its left leg, it directly threw the dagger onto the ground, while Wang Qing quickly ran out of the room. Naturally, the shadow would not give it the chance to do so, and with a whoosh, a hidden weapon appeared in the shadow’s hand.

“Lord, I know I’m wrong, I won’t dare to do it again.” At this moment, Wang Qing knew that she was about to meet the King of Hell. He directly knelt on the ground and pleaded. His heart was filled with fear.

“Don’t worry, I will do as I say. Now, I will ask and you will answer. This is my last chance.”

“Yes, yes. Don’t worry, I will cherish this opportunity.” At this moment, how could Wang Qing still have anything to say? However, the shadow felt a little depressed. Why was it that every time the Purple Garden did this, it would always be proper and there would be so much trouble for him? However, the shadow had also improved a lot.

“Did the Sixth Prince instruct you to contact anyone?”

“Nope. Your Sixth Prince listens to the empress dowager, but the empress dowager does have contacts with people from other countries.” How could Wang Qing not tell her the truth? He wanted to give her everything he knew in exchange for a chance to live. When the shadow heard this, its heart shook and it blurted out a question.

“Which country? “East level or west.”

“It’s from the East Peak Country. I don’t know who’s manipulating the East Peak Country. Usually, someone would deliver a letter to us. Once we see it, we’ll burn it down.”

“Hmph, if you don’t even know who the people of Dongping Country are, what’s the use of having a useless trash like you?” The silhouette coldly said.

“Lord, please spare our lives. We don’t know anything about it. The only thing we know is that person is the person behind the operation. As for the rest, we truly do not know.” There was an unspeakable fear within his words. When the figure heard this, it felt that the current Wang Qing did not have the guts to deceive it. Immediately, it frowned.

“Alright, I understand. Run outside now.” After the shadow said this, it flashed and appeared in front of Wang Qing, the dagger in its hand was placed in front of its chest. When the dagger in its hand was placed in front of its chest, Wang Qing heard the shadow saying this and was overjoyed, before directly rushing to the door. At this moment, the room was completely dark and one could only hear a ‘pu’ sound as Wang Qing’s eyes completely shut in the dark night.

“I didn’t kill you. You bumped into it yourself.” At this moment, when Liu Kui arrived at the entrance of the Sixth Prince’s Mansion, he discovered that all of the guards had changed people. His heart immediately became alert as he repeatedly retreated, and those guards who had received the news earlier also rushed over.

“Liu Kui, come with me. There might be a chance for you to survive.”

“You, who are you?”

“Humph, don’t be so long-winded.” As the shadow spoke, it pulled Liu Kui up and directly ran towards the inner courtyard of the Imperial Palace.
