d who knew nothing."Mother" Mo Junyi furrowed his brows. "Why would Bai Guanggong target Mother She has always lived in Ling Shui Village, and they have nothing to do with each other."Have you heard t...Zhao Liwen's question was something Zhou Zhiyao was also very curious about.
Their people have been keeping a close eye on the movements of the Beijiang王府. With so many incidents happening at the Beijiang王府, there's no reason they wouldn't have received any word about it.
Both pairs of eyes glared angrily at the man on the ground, waiting for his answer.
Even those who knelt on the ground were truly unaware of what had transpired.
They had been keeping a close eye on the movements of the Beijiang Royal Mansion, but after their people infiltrated it, there hadn't been any movement from inside.
This led them to always believe that no one in the Bei Jiang Wangfu had discovered anything.
The final result was that all the people they sent were killed... This...this is simply terrifying.
How many people are there in Beijiang Royal Mansion
To what extent have their skills reached
"Returning... Returning to Your Highness, your subordinates deserve death. After they snuck in, your subordinates didn't hear a single sound."
Zhao Li heard him say this, and immediately became angry. He walked straight up to the man and kicked him hard on the shoulder.
A man has no choice but to beg for mercy.
If this had happened on an ordinary day, Zhao Li would have ordered this man executed long ago. But now, on Tianba Kingdom's territory, after suffering such heavy losses, Zhao Li didn't have the energy to take this man's life.
Of course, this person naturally knows that as well.
He didn't dare to raise his head, continuing to kneel and beg for mercy on the ground.
Zhou Zhiyao knew Zhao Li was angry, he remained silent for a while before speaking, "Your Highness, it seems the Beijang Royal Manor is not somewhere ordinary people can just enter. Perhaps we should ask the Qingyun Pavilion for help"
Zhao Li frowned, Qingyun Pavilion's business was mainly collecting intelligence from various countries. They only sold intelligence, so he wasn't sure if Han Yun would help him for the time being.
Besides, Han Yun mentioned not long ago that Qingyun Pavilion seems to have changed owners, so he's not sure if Han Yun can still help.
Zhou Zhiyao pursed his lips. Seeing Zhao Li remain silent, he could only speak again, "Your Highness, now in Tianba Kingdom, only the master of Qingyun Pavilion can help us."
The Azure Cloud Pavilion are known for their skilled martial arts, so they'd certainly be a valuable asset. It just so happens that the people under his command are rather short-handed right now. If we could enlist the Azure Cloud Pavilion's help, it would be ideal.
Hearing Zhou Zhiyao's words, Zhao Li apparently thought of this as well. He frowned, "Go find a way to get Han Yun over here."
Zhou Zhiyao immediately nodded. "Yes."
Zhou Zhiyao personally handled this matter.
After Zhou Zhiyao left, Zhao Li looked at the people still kneeling on the ground. Although he was angry, he had no way to deal with these trash in such a short-staffed situation.
He frowned and said coldly, "Is there anything unusual about their corpses"
"Your Highness, most of them were killed with a single cut to the throat. It's evident that the opponent was incredibly skilled in martial arts."
" "..." "
Zhao Li's brows furrowed even tighter, a hint of wistfulness in his heart. He truly hadn't expected so many masters within the Bei Jiang Wangfu.
This caused him to suffer heavy losses, but it also proved one thing: the men in black they encountered on the way were not sent by Mo Yunjing.
If Mo Yunjing's people were truly that capable, if he had wanted to take Zhao Si's life on the road, Zhao Si wouldn't have been able to reach the capital alive.
It seems that those people he encountered on the road must be related to his so-called 'brothers'.
But if you think about it, his brothers just want him and Zhao Si to die in Tianba Country.
Even if he can't kill him, we must find a way to kill Zhao Si and prevent her from marrying into Tianba Kingdom. That way, he will no longer have the support of Tianba Kingdom.
Oh!
The throne of the Xuan Kingdom is definitely his, Zhao Li's!
After regaining his composure, Zhao Li coldly said to the person on the ground, "Go burn those corpses. Leave no trace."
"Yes."
……
After much searching, Zhou Zhiyao finally found Han Yun.
Han Yun met him in a secluded corner. He seemed to know exactly why Zhou Zhiyao was there, and without Zhou Zhiyao needing to explain, he directly said:
"What I said before was true, the current master of Qingyun Pavilion is not me, so I do not have the person you are looking for."
Zhou Zhiyao's lips twitched. He obviously didn't believe Han Yun's words.
Thus, after a moment of silence, he still said to Han Yun, “Lord Han, our prince truly needs help right now. You just have to consider…”
Han Yun raised her hand to stop him, "This matter need not be discussed further. Even if the Third Prince himself came to me for help, I am powerless to assist him now. Therefore, it is best to stop wasting words on these matters."
After finishing his words, Han Yun looked up at the sky and suddenly chuckled self-deprecatingly. “Perhaps others don’t know what my father and I have done to the Noble Consort, the Third Prince, and the Sixth Princess over the years. But you, as the Third Prince’s confidant, should see it very clearly. We owe a debt of gratitude to the Noble Consort, and after so many years, we should have paid it back by now.”
Zhou Zhiyao pursed his lips, he wanted to continue persuading Han Yun, but Han Yun didn't give him any chance.
Before Zhou Zhiyao could speak, Han Yun interrupted him again and continued:
Although I can no longer use the manpower of Qingyun Pavilion, as long as I am alive for a day, I will fight with my own life to protect the Third Prince and the Sixth Princess.
From then on, he would only allow himself to do such foolish things, never putting the lives of hundreds of people in Qingyun Pavilion at risk.
The debt he and his father owed, they came to repay it, the people of Qingyun Pavilion are all innocent.
Besides, he wasn't afraid to risk his life for them before. Just the other day, he was seriously injured protecting Princess Six Zhao Si.
If he hadn't met the Princess of Beijiang later, and she hadn't treated his wounds, he would have been gone long ago.
Since that injury, he'd come to understand. For the sake of so-called repayment, he was willing to sacrifice his own life. But the brothers of Qingyun Pavilion were innocent; they had children and families, their own lives to live. They shouldn't have to give their lives for him and his father.
This is also why he insisted on moving most of the manpower and resources to Tianba Kingdom after being seriously injured.
His purpose was simple; he didn't want the members of Qingyun Pavilion to continue helping those people. The people of Qingyun Pavilion owed no one anything, so there was no need to pay any price for anyone.
Perhaps having already made up his mind, after Han Yun finished speaking, he didn't give Zhou Zhiyao any chance to persuade him. Using light kung fu, he left the place.
Zhou Zhiyao was stunned. He really hadn't expected Han Yun's attitude to be so resolute.
But he didn't know how to solve it for now, so he turned around and went back to discuss it with Zhao Li first.
After Zhou Zhiyao also left, a person walked out from another corner. His deep eyes watched the direction Zhou Zhiyao left, and a meaningful smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.ics and tempted Shuang Shuang, "How about this, if you're willing to tell me what you know, I'll have someone buy you delicious treats every day"Shuangshuang shook her head without hesitation.Feng Min...
