Chapter 1189: On-the-Spot Execution
he Emperor of Tianba Kingdom, it would be like a sheep entering a tiger's den.Zhou Zhiyao patiently explained the reasons to Zhao Li before saying his own thoughts, "Now in this capital city, I'm afra...As for Zhao Si's matter, Han Yun's guess was right. Killing Zhao Si at this juncture would indeed cause a lot of trouble.
The news that Zhao Si was killed at the Beijang Prince's Mansion spread somehow, and in just one night, rumors were everywhere in the capital. People said that the Northern Border Princess was ruthless, cruel, and bloodthirsty, even daring to chop off the head of a princess from Xuan Guo.
For a time, the entire capital was abuzz with discussion, and there were calls from everywhere for the emperor to punish An Xue Tang.
The people of Beijiang Royal Manor also received the news quickly. Yun Si wanted to send someone to suppress these remarks from the commoners, but An Xuetang knew his thoughts and stopped him:
"This matter clearly has someone stirring the pot behind the scenes. You sending people to silence the people now wouldn't that just fall right into that person's trap"
Yun Si frowned. "But now the people in the city are very agitated, and they hold a lot of resentment towards Your Highness. Especially since their anger is directed at you for the King not taking the Yun Army with him when he left. They even want to punish you."
An Xuetang smiled, "It doesn't matter, they are just being used as pawns by others. There's no need to pay them any mind. However...when the people's voices grow louder and louder, that's when the real trouble will begin."
True trouble
Yun Si and the others were still pondering what their princess meant, when An Xue Tang continued, "Go tell Fourteenth. Let him follow Mo Yun Ze's lead. I want to see what trouble Mo Yun Ze can cook up for us."
"Yes."
Yun Si responded with a sound and then hurried away.
Ning'er frowned, "Does the Princess think that the reason why the people in the capital are so resentful is because of Mo Yunze stirring up trouble behind the scenes"
"Well, there's definitely his involvement in this, but it's also possible that others are involved, like Mo Yunren."
These people saw an opportunity and certainly wanted to get rid of her, one by one, desperately trying to find a way to arrest and control her, using her to restrain Mo Yunjing.
They came up with a good idea, but it all depends on whether they have the ability to pull it off.
……
Yun Si's actions were swift, and Fourteen received the message soon after. He learned that their princess had instructed him to follow Mo Yunze's wishes. After a moment of hesitation, Fourteen...
Nevertheless, he ultimately chose to believe An Xuetang unconditionally. Since their Queen had asked him to do so, she must have already made plans to deal with the situation.
So, he completely burned the note in his hand to ash, calmed himself down for a moment, and transformed into the furious "Zhao Li," rushing to find Mo Yunze angrily.
"Ze Brother, what's really going on out there My sister's death can't just be swept under the rug!"
Mo Yunze saw his excited expression, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, then he put down the paintbrush in his hand and said slowly:
"Zhao brother, there is no need to worry. Your younger sister's death will certainly not be left unpunished. The people have already learned that An Xue Tang killed Zhao Si, and coupled with what happened before, this time An Xue Tang wants to easily get away with it, it's simply wishful thinking."
Fourteen sneered in his heart, you think you can scheme against our princess like this
But his acting on the surface was very convincing. He said angrily, "Then when will we have to wait An Xue Tang killed my younger sister, it's true! Now my younger sister's head is still in my room. This matter will never be resolved. If I can't avenge my younger sister, how can I explain it to my father"
Mo Yunze walked up to Shi Si and patted him on the shoulder. “Trust me, this matter will be resolved soon. My father has long wanted to deal with An Xuetang, and now there’s a good opportunity, he wouldn’t miss it.”
His father had never been satisfied with An Xue Tang, and now that Mo Yun Jing was away, it was the perfect opportunity to kill her.
Fourteen looked at him with suspicion. "I'll trust you for now, but if you don't do anything, don't blame us from the Xuan Country."
Mo Yunze nodded slightly. He wanted to say a few more words, but at this moment he saw the steward of the mansion leading the chief eunuch beside his father over.
Mo Yunze's lips curled into a slight upward arc. "My father emperor's imperial decree has arrived, Brother Zhao can now rest assured completely."
After the eunuch entered, he exchanged pleasantries with Mo Yunze for a few moments before proclaiming the imperial decree.
The content on the imperial decree was exactly as Mo Yunze had guessed. The emperor ordered Mo Yunze to capture An Xuetang, who had harmed innocent lives and attempted to provoke a war between the two countries, a grave offense.
After receiving the imperial decree, Mo Yunze's steward immediately slipped a generous amount of silver to the chief eunuch.
Mo Yunze looked at the eunuch with a smile, who was holding the purse after taking it, "I wonder if Father Emperor mentioned, if An Xue Tang is unwilling to enter the palace with this King, what should this King do"
The eunuch smiled and put the pouch away, then bowed to Mo Yunze:
“Your Majesty the King, the Emperor has naturally considered this point. The Emperor's meaning is that if the Princess Consort of Beijang dares to disobey the imperial decree, as a dangerous person like her, the Prince can kill her on the spot. And Your Majesty, the Emperor's words are not just talk. The Emperor knows that there are many masters in the Beijang王府, so this time he sent thousands of Imperial Forest Army to help the Prince.”
"!!"
Shi Fourteen stiffened all over, his face as rigid as a board. It seemed this time, the Emperor was truly intent on using this opportunity to kill their princess.tly, he was a little worried about the young master. He seemed to have to find a way to meet him first.Thinking of this, Yun Wu stood up and said, “Remember, no one should act rashly. Even if somethin...
