Chapter 1194: Playing the Victim? Everyone Can

the maidservant draw her dagger once more and thrust it toward him.This time it was a direct hit to the weak spot.Though the prick wasn't deep, it struck a vital point. The prince consort's eyes widen...Just when everyone hadn't reacted to what the princess of Beijang wanted to do, at that moment, the guards from the Beijang Royal Residence suddenly descended from the sky.

Mo Yunze's private soldiers instantly became alert, but no one could have predicted that the North Frontier Prince's guards would target not the obvious martial artists, but the commoners.

Those commoners were terrified, thinking the Northern Border Duke's Mansion would attack them. However, they only helped them up and dragged them aside, not giving them any trouble.

Once the civilians were evacuated, someone searching for Tang Gu appeared. He glanced at An Xuetang and saw her nod. Immediately, he lit the explosives in his hand and threw them into the crowd.

And this bomb, An Xuetang had specially remixed a few days ago. It was less lethal than the ones used before and exploded much faster.

So, it exploded immediately after being dropped by the people from the Xumintang Valley.

At that moment, sparks flew everywhere and smoke billowed into the sky. Many of the guards who didn't have time to dodge were more or less affected.

While An Xue Tang had already been protected by Ning'er and Shou'er to a safe area.

This time, An Xue Tang didn't use much explosives, so after it went off, only about forty to fifty people near the blast site died. Those who were closer sustained more serious injuries, while those further away suffered minor ones.

The crowd of commoners were even more shocked, their mouths agape. As ordinary people, the bloodiest scene they had ever witnessed was the beheading during executions by the government. They had never seen such a method that could instantly kill so many people.

Especially the corpses on the ground, torn and fragmented, had pushed them to their limits. Some couldn't hold it in anymore and started vomiting violently.

The elderly Li was a worldly man who had seen his fair share of storms in life, but seeing the lethality of this "weapon," he was shocked.

Seeing this, he was shocked and his mind instantly flashed with the rumors that had been circulating recently: whoever obtains An Xue Tang will obtain the world.

Remembering this rumor, he cast a deep glance at the corpse on the ground, then looked at An Xuetang, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

It seems that the saying is not just a rumor after all.

Aside from that, just based on this small weapon alone, if the Princess of Beijang had enough of these things, let alone the Tianba Kingdom, I estimate that no one in the world would be able to stop her if she wanted something.

Mo Yunze stared at the mess on the ground, his heart still pounding. After recovering, he glared at An Xuetang, gritting his teeth and saying, "An Xuetang! What did your people use"

An Xuetang curled her lips. "Do you think this concubine would tell you However...if your people still want to experience it again, this concubine could satisfy them."

"!!!"

As soon as An Xuetang said this, the faces of those who were injured paled even more, and they instinctively took a step back.

Mo Yunze clenched his fists, "So you're preparing to defy the imperial decree Wanting to go against my father emperor"

"How could that be Didn't you see that this imperial concubine did not attack the Imperial Guard sent by my father Those men who were skilled in martial arts just now were hiding among the people. This imperial concubine suspects they were looking for an opportunity to attack me."

Speaking of which, An Xuetang stared at him with an innocent look, "Since it's someone with ill intentions, this concubine naturally needs to prepare in advance, eliminate all dangers. What do you think, Fourth Prince"

Glancing at the lost souls, Mo Yunze's crimson eyes fixed on An Xuetang's innocent-looking eyes, gritting his teeth and speaking, "How do you know they will definitely be harmful to you"

"Can the Fourth Prince assure me that they won't harm this concubine If they had no ill intentions, why would they disguise themselves as commoners and appear here"

Before Mo Yunze could explain, an elderly man from the Li family who had been watching silently for a long time spoke up, “The North Frontier Princess’s words are reasonable.”

Mo Yunze: "..."

This man is the head of the Li clan, highly respected. If he speaks for An Xuetang, things will likely be difficult today.

Hesitantly, Mo Yunze decided to not dwell on getting an explanation from An Xue Tang for now. The priority was to get her into the palace first.

She killed the princess of Xuan Guo, and her father will naturally find a way to use this excuse to kill her.

Thinking about this, Mo Yunze naturally decided to endure it first. He took out the imperial decree, "An Xuetang, the emperor has an imperial decree, summoning you to the palace to meet him. He wants to personally investigate the case of Zhao Si."

An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "Oh, then go."

Having said that, he turned his head to look at the commoners who were still stunned. Finally, his gaze landed on the elderly man surnamed Li:

This consort knows that Master is very curious about why Zhao Si died. Zhao Si was a wicked person, who bullied others while in the Xuan Kingdom. Didn't Master know about his trip to Beijiang when the King of Beijiang was young

The elderly man surnamed Li nodded. "I still remember this matter. Back when the King of Beijang was in the Xuan country, he fell seriously ill and almost didn't make it."

An Xuetang nodded slightly, "Everyone only knows that the King of Beijang was seriously ill in Xuan country, but they don't know that the reason the King of Beijang fell ill was entirely because he was tortured by Zhao Si."

"..."

Everyone was completely unaware of this, and for a moment, they didn't know how to react.

An Xuetang seeing everyone's expressions eased, continued, "As the princess of Bei Jiang, I didn't take the initiative to find Zhao Si for revenge. This palace has always felt guilty. But this Zhao Si actually thinks that our Bei Jiang Wangfu still can't help her, and she still thinks that our Bei Jiang Wang is still the same little prince who let her bully him back then. She came to our doorstep three times trying to bully people."

"She's so brazen, isn't she Just because she thinks we're still easy to bully She's come right to our doorstep! If I killed her, what could they possibly do"

“The King of the Northern Border has spent these years fending off enemies, fighting countless victories for the people of the nation. He doesn't expect you to remember his military achievements, but now that he is defending against enemies again, this concubine is merely helping him resolve someone who used to bully him. Are you so excited that you are not afraid of chilling his heart”

Isn't it about binding people with emotions Isn't it just putting on a show of pity An Xue Tang can do that too! She just didn't bother to use it before.

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment. If the Northern Border Princess's words were true, then her killing Zhao Siwei to avenge her husband... didn't seem too wrong.

The elderly Mr. Li did not know about the events of that year, but he did know something about Zhao Si's character. He was indeed, as the Princess of Beijang said, arrogant and domineering, bullying others with his power.

So he pondered for a moment, “Actually, I have many students who serve in the Xuan Kingdom. I will write to them and ask about what King Beijang experienced in the Xuan Kingdom back then, but…”

Although he hesitated and didn't voice his question, An Xuetang still guessed what he wanted to ask. She took the initiative and said, "What do you think of the weapon I just used"

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!s jealous. Any matter concerning Mo Yunjing could stir her temper.So, right now, she didn't want Kang'er to bring it up and upset An Xue Tang.However, An Xuetang saw their expressions and simply smile...
