Chapter 1191: He is a Traitor!

e yard, the three corpses had already turned to ash. After the fire died down, An Xuetang quickly cleaned up. After more than an hour, she finally restored the yard to its clean and tidy state."Ah Jin...Zhou Zhiyao hesitated for a moment. He knew very well that even if the person before him was truly Zhao Li, the decision he would make in the end would certainly be the same. After all, only by letting this matter escalate and become more serious could the North Border Princess be condemned by everyone.

The more tragic Zhao Siyue's death, the more people would believe that the Princess of Beijang was a ruthless killer with a venomous heart. They would think that such a person deserved to be sent to hell rather than continue occupying the position of Princess of Beijang.

So, no matter what, Zhao Si's head will certainly be taken out today to be displayed in front of everyone. However, thinking about this, Zhou Zhiyao's eyes were very firm as he looked at Shi and said, "At least our prince won't be so ruthless."

"Fourteen's lips curled into a smirk. 'Oh, so I agreed too quickly If only I had hesitated for a moment. But... even if you discovered I wasn't Zhao Li, what could you do about it' "

Having said that, before Zhou Zhiyao could react, Fourteenth suddenly turned cold, his sharp eyes fixed on Zhou Zhiyao, "Do you think you can still walk out of here alive today"

Zhou Zhiyao immediately wanted to turn around and shout to the person guarding in the courtyard, but Shi Si had already made a move at this moment. The small knife in his hand was like a gust of wind.

Zhou Zhiyao didn't have time to react before the flying knife struck his vital point.

Aside from his skill in disguise and illusion, the Fourteen was most adept at using concealed weapons.

Zhou Zhiyao's stiff body slowly slumped to the ground. His incredible eyes stared at Shi Fourteen, as if asking in disbelief what was going on

He was skilled in martial arts, but why was he unable to move at that moment He hadn't been struck at any pressure points.

Fourteen seemed to see his question, and with a light chuckle, she took step by step towards him, continuing to press the small knife on his body.

Looking at Zhou Zhiyao's unwilling eyes, he smirked, "Our princess's skill in making poison is indeed formidable. What I just gave you was our princess's homemade Mafo powder. Once inhaled, it will cause numbness and slow reactions throughout the body, so you couldn't make a timely move just now."

"However, you are quite foolish. Didn't you feel the strange smell in the air when you came in I suppose...you were so preoccupied with your pathetic master Zhao Li's life or death that you wouldn't notice anything else."

Zhou Zhiyao's eyes were bloodshot, with only a breath left, "He..."

"He's dead."

Fourteen didn't wait for him to ask before answering, "You really think our prince is a vegetarian To dare to set their sights on our princess, if our prince lets him live another moment, that would be a shame on our prince!"

Zhou Zhiyao's pupils constricted. So, after what happened in the palace, the King of Beijang had killed their Highness not long ago. These days... he had been facing a fake all along.

It's a pity, isn't it What can he do now that he knows the truth

Zhao Li is dead, he gambled his whole life on Zhao Li, but now he's gone, everything is lost. Everything he pursued in his life has vanished into thin air.

Shi Fourteen was too lazy to waste his energy on him. Seeing the lifeless look in his eyes, he drew out his dagger. In the next instant, the dagger plunged back into Zhou Zhiyao's body, but this time it struck his chest, piercing through his entire heart.

Zhou Zhiyao died instantly.

Fourteen clapped his hands, then went out and called the guards who were guarding outside the courtyard. He spoke in a cold voice, "Zhou Zhiyao betrayed Xuan Guo and colluded with people from Tianba Guo in secret. He almost killed this palace. Fortunately, this palace acted in time to kill him first."

"Speaking of which, a cruel smile appeared on his face. "You guys, are responsible for throwing his body to the mass grave. You must see with your own eyes that his body is devoured by wild beasts before you can return. This palace wants you to see with your own eyes, if you dare betray this palace, what will be your end."

Those guards were both startled and apprehensive, utterly unable to believe that Mr. Zhou would betray their lord. Yet, it was the lord who had spoken these words himself, and they had no choice but to believe him.

Several people didn't dare to hesitate, quickly replied "yes" and then carried Zhou Zhiyao's body away.

After everyone in the courtyard left, Fourteen's face darkened, and he immediately changed his clothes to leave. But before he could get out the door, a dart suddenly flew in from the ceiling beam.

A piece of paper was tied to the dart. After reading the contents on the note, Fourteenth suddenly broke into a satisfied, subtle smile.

Their queen was truly insightful, able to predict his every move. However, he wondered if she could safely handle the thousands of Imperial Guards sent by the emperor and the thousands of private soldiers secretly dispatched by Mo Yunze.

However, the princess doesn't need him to return for support. Instead, she wants him to take advantage of Mo Yunze's opportunity to move troops out of the mansion and investigate what other unknown secrets lie within Mo Yunze's residence.

Since this was their princess's request, the Fourteenth naturally had to obey. After burning the letter, he changed back into Zhao Li's appearance.

After he went out, he didn't expect two tails to follow him closely behind.

The two men saw 'Zhao Li' walking towards the restricted area of the palace, their faces changed drastically, they looked at each other and quickly followed.

Since this place is aware that Mo Yunze has always kept him away, he naturally wants to take advantage of Mo Yunze's absence now. Most of the private soldiers in his mansion have been withdrawn, so he definitely wants to go in and find out what's going on.

Following 'Zhao Li' stealthily, they saw that he effortlessly infiltrated the palace's restricted area. One of them quickly told the other:

"What are you still doing Go and tell the Prince immediately that the Crown Prince of Xuan has entered the restricted area of the palace. Go quickly and come back quickly! I'll stay here and make sure he can't get out."

"Okay, but what if…what if this Xuan Guo prince dies in there Didn't the King say he was going to cooperate with this prince What if we kill him The King won't be able to cooperate then, and his plans will fall apart. Neither of us will survive!"

"Nonsense, of course I know that. I won't kill him outright, but I won't let him escape easily either. You go quickly and return swiftly. See what the king intends to do."

"Okay."

……

On the other hand, An Xuetang had already received an order from the emperor to send over a thousand Imperial Guards to Mo Yunze, intending to use him to eliminate her.

She learned about the emperor's decree before Mo Yunze. After all, Mo Yunjing had long placed spies in the palace, and Hua Duo was now also within its walls.

Anything the emperor did would naturally be concealed from her.

Since this emperor wants to kill her, she naturally won't be merciful. She can use this opportunity to show those who lurk outside the palace day and night, she, An Xuetang, is not a woman they can capture just as they please.

If you want to lay a hand on her, then see if you have the guts.

An Xuetang looked at the Phoenix Cry on the bed, "Kang'er, you still stay here and keep watch."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Ning'er and Shou'er walked on either side of An Xuetang, the three of them walking out together.

When Yun Si saw her emerge, the sullen look on his face softened slightly. He bowed and said, "Your Highness, I've gathered some information. Most of the private soldiers in Mo Yunze's residence are mixed in with that agitated crowd of citizens. They're continuing to inflame their emotions."fore getting up, putting on his coat and walking out.As Mo Yunjing just closed the door, Yunliu and Ning'er looked over. Ning'er nodded slightly and proactively guarded at the entrance, while Shou'er...
