Heartless Phoenix Queen - C171

Within the Northern Yue Imperial Palace, Helian Lie and Zi Yuan were currently still in bed, doing such a crazy thing. After the storm passed, Zi Yuan had also heard it and started to pant nonstop. It was as if Helian Haoyan had taken medicine tonight, and the devastation he had suffered was even fiercer than the last few times.

“Are you looking to kill me today?” The Violet Garden couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Unexpectedly, Helian said with a loud laugh.

“Haha, today you’re going to have a good time! I love you! I’m really tired out these days!”

“Hmph, you’re so tired yet you’re still treating me like this. Alright, I’ll stop for now.” When Zi Yuan said this, he also slapped away the hand Helian placed on his chest. Helian Lie’s mind also calmed down from the impact and slowly calmed down. He then looked at Zi Yuan and asked.

“Where did you arrange the shadows and swords to go? Why haven’t I seen them around recently?” Helian Lie asked with some doubt.

“I want them to go to the Northern Yue City.” Zi Yuan suddenly said with a smile, while Helian listened in confusion.

“If you want to buy something, don’t tell me you have to go shopping on the street? Is it not true that the insides of the palace are still fine? ” Helian laughed helplessly as well. Zi Yuan reached out his hand and flicked at Helian Lie’s head. When he saw this, Helian Lie couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

“I told them to go catch the thief. Do you understand now?” When the words of the Violet Garden came out, Helian couldn’t help but tilt his head back slightly. Soon after, he smiled in his heart. So that was the case. The Violet Garden had actually asked them to clean up the people hiding behind them.

“Heh heh, you talk too much these days. I don’t know how to react to that either.”

“Humph, it’s not that you’ve reacted to it, it’s that you’re currently unwilling to react to it, right?” When Zi Yuan said this, he couldn’t help but continue before Helian said anything.

“I reckon that Xi Li and Dong Ping will be heading north in a few days. Have you made any plans with the Southern Kingdom?”

“I plan to call the Southern Kingdom’s Grand Marshal Li Changfeng over tomorrow and instruct him.” At this moment, Helian was also talking about the current situation. After hearing her words, Helian Haoyan was also discussing the current situation.

“When you call him over, it will be too late for him to go back. Let me tell you, if Xi Li and Dong Ping are working together, there will naturally be no more troops than me, Bei Yue, by a large margin. If the Southern Kingdom adds up as well, then we will be able to gather together five to five, five, and the Southern Kingdom will definitely not send out all of their troops. At this point, Zi Yuan couldn’t help but calm down.

Although the Southern Kingdom had already attached themselves to the Northern Yue, no one would dare to gamble like that if they wanted to place their entire army on an unstable factor. The Southern Kingdom’s Emperor still did not have any confirmation, so it was likely that he was still hesitating. Zi Yuan couldn’t help but frown when he thought of this. These words were useless even for He Lian’s sake, but Zi Yuan wanted to give the Southern Kingdom a wake-up call.

“There’s no need to worry. Today, I will send a shadow to warn the Southern Kingdom’s Great Marshal, Li Changfeng. That Li Changfeng is the true leader of the Southern Kingdom. Without him, the Southern Kingdom would not have been in good shape.” When she heard Helian said this, the Violet Garden relaxed a little. She originally thought that Helian had not thought of this, but now it seemed that she had worried too much.

“Good, you have the best idea.” I will have to wait for the shadow to come back before I speak. It is likely that they are still on their way at this time.

“Hmm? “Didn’t you say before that Xi Li and the people arranged by Dong Ping wouldn’t easily surface here? Why are we here again …”

“That was before. Before, they did not come out of the water, but because the time was not right yet. When the time comes, they will naturally come out.” As Zi Yuan spoke up to here, he couldn’t help but worry a little.

If they hadn’t been cleared out in time, then it would have been Helian and Zi Yuan who would suffer, so Zi Yuan also wanted to clear out the shadow and the sword before this. Now, it was the time of the storm, and if these people were to cooperate with the two of them, then this point would definitely have surfaced. Even if they didn’t all come out, there would at least be a portion of them.

If they wanted to know more about the Northern State of Yue, they could only ask around outside of the capital to know more about it. It was only because Helian Lie hadn’t thought of this when he ascended the throne, otherwise how could they let such things happen again and again? It would be difficult to get even out of this situation by now.

“En, I understand your meaning. You’re saying that if that Murong Xiu attacked me later on, he would be related to these people, so naturally, these people have formed a network and would move around often. When Feng Lingxue and the empress dowager were at loggerheads, there was a list of names, and you took the list from me. I’m afraid that you want to find those people through this list,” Helian Haoyan said, smiling as he looked at the Violet Garden.

“Yes, has the emperor eaten platinum recently?” “Why are you getting smarter and smarter?” When Zi Yuan heard Helian said this, he also couldn’t help but mock her. When Helian Haoyan heard this, he also could not understand what kind of thing this Brain Platinum was, and Zi Yuan knew that Helian did not wish to ask too much questions about it, so he just stood up and put on his clothes. Meanwhile, Helian Lie was still thinking about what Zi Yuan had said.

It was unknown when, but an imposing aura suddenly appeared on Zi Yuan’s body, as if it was blocked by a layer of fog, which made him feel even more mysterious. Sometimes, when the two of them were in bed, Zi Yuan would mysteriously say something new to Helian, which made Helian feel very interesting. And just as Helian was thinking about it, Zi Yuan came to the other side of the room, where he suddenly vomited. He also felt that something was wrong with his body, as if he had been eating food for a long time.

“Could it be that he has caught a cold?” “Why is it that I can’t eat at all these days?” At this moment, Zi Yuan was muttering to himself before he washed himself with clean water. When he walked out of his room, he saw that the shadow and the sword were already waiting for him at the side.

“Empress.”

“Mistress.” When the silhouette and the sword saw Zi Yuan coming out, both of them spoke at the same time with great respect.

“Hmm, how did things go?” Zi Yuan immediately tidied up the discomfort in his body and asked directly.

“Reporting to Master, Shadow and I have followed your instructions and walked around the capital. Although we haven’t found any suspicious characters, we have still obtained some rewards.” Ah Jian paused here and looked at Zi Yuan. When he saw Zi Yuan indicating for him to continue, he continued speaking.

“Most of the people on the list have already been killed. There are also some who are neutral. Shadow and I have concealed ourselves within the houses of the neutral parties, but we did not find anything out of the ordinary. Instead …” Ah Jian spoke as if he did not dare to say anything. However, Zi Yuan immediately shouted in a low voice.

“Speak!”

“Yes, Mistress. On the contrary, some of the ministers of the pro-He Faction are more suspicious.” Ah Jian said this because he had explained everything that had happened tonight to Zi Yuan.

At ten in the evening, the sword and the shadow wandered around the outskirts of the city, but they discovered that none of the people on the list could be found. Even some of the people were killed by the order of Purple Garden and had no leads, while some of the people were among the neutral faction and did not find any problems, but since there was an affinity faction on the list, and the affability faction was currently on Helian side, it was only natural that the shadow and the sword did not search for them.

This Minister was originally one of Mo Feng’s subordinates. After Mo Feng was killed, he continued to stay by Helian’s side to do things for Helian. Mo Feng’s list of names also disappeared with Mo Feng’s death, but Zi Yuan and Helian did not know that this Minister had been keeping an eye on Helian Lie the entire time. Thus, the silhouette and the sword had also discovered this point and rushed to the Imperial Palace. After Zi Yuan finished listening, he immediately spoke.

“Then why didn’t you capture him? Didn’t I tell you to capture all the suspicious people?”

“This, this, Mistress, Shadow and I had not fought when we went down. When that person saw us suddenly barging in, he bit his tongue and committed suicide.” In his mind, he was constantly calculating just who had arranged this person to be so determined to give up. He had never found such a person in the Northern State of Yue before. Thinking of this, Zi Yuan rubbed his eyes in annoyance, then looked at Ah Jian and said.

Shadow, I want you to do something. I want you to head over to the Southern Kingdom and the Southern Kingdom to discuss this war with Marshal Li Changfeng, then since the Southern Kingdom is a subordinate state, you must have the status of a subordinate state. Remember this, as for how to say it, it all depends on how you control your own situation. When Zi Yuan said this, he looked directly at the shadow. When the shadow heard this, it did not think much and immediately said.

“Yes, Empress.”

“Yes, Ah Jian, you should go to that minister’s residence again tonight and try your best to find the clues in his hand for me.” Zi Yuan frowned and said the same.

“Yes, Mistress.”

“En, you guys can go first. Time is running out and you need to hurry up.” The two of them also cupped their hands together and immediately began to act.
