Chapter 1911: Death Warrior!
“Hmph, if you want to kill or cut me, do as you please!” Zhou Anping raised his head and said arrogantly when he heard the Emperor’s question.
“Haha…” When the Emperor heard this, he sneered on the spot.” Minister Zhou, you’re really amazing. You have been by my side for more than ten years and have even received my favour. You have never revealed a trace of weakness!”
Zhou Anping didn’t respond. His head was still arrogant.
When the Emperor saw this, he still sneered.” Hehe, as expected of a patriotic minister. You’re so loyal to your country, even if you have to sacrifice your head and blood. But I’ve been raising a dog in the Longyan Dynasty all these years! Since you don’t want to tell me, that’s fine.” After saying that, he looked at Lin Yuelan and asked,” Girl, do you still have any truth pills with you?”
Hearing the Emperor’s question, Zhou Anping’s pupils constricted, and panic flashed in his eyes.
He had heard it clearly just now.
The main reason why they had failed was because of the betrayal of Prince Ping and the two assassins. The reason why they betrayed them was because they had taken the truth pill that Lin Yuelan had given them.
They had never heard of such a pill before.
In the past, they might not have believed that this pill really had such a miraculous effect.
Even so, just in case, they constantly sent people to assassinate them to silence them and eliminate the hidden dangers.
However, they had many tricks up their sleeves. Lin Yuelan’s defensive and reaction methods were not inferior to theirs.
As a result, the outcome was that one wrong step turned into a mistake step by step, and then, he lost everything.
Since he had lost, he had nothing to say.
He had been hiding in the Longyan Kingdom for almost 40 years, and he had long been prepared to sacrifice himself at any time. For this, he had prepared everything.
This time, when he received his master’s order to join forces with Yuwen Xuhong to frame Lin Yuelan, he secretly sent his family away.
The master had promised him that if he were really exposed, then his eldest son would be conferred the title of nobility, his daughter would be conferred the title of county lord, and his mother would be conferred the title of first-class imperial wife. This was the honour of his entire family.
However, all of this was under the premise that he was exposed but did not betray Black Clouds Kingdom.
If he betrayed the Black Clouds Kingdom, then his relatives would not have a good ending.
At the thought of this, Zhou Anping’s usually calm expression turned into panic and fear.
He didn’t want to take such a pill.
However, if he didn’t tell the truth, then he would have to eat this pill for sure.
Lin Yuelan took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve. Then, she poured out a pill and said to the Emperor,” Old Emperor, this pill of mine was made from very rare and precious medicinal herbs. It’s very precious. Moreover, it was very difficult to make, and there were very few of them. Now that you’ve used up four of my pills at once, my heart really aches.”
The Emperor’s mouth twitched, and he was instantly speechless.
He was in the mood to laugh and scold her,” You little girl, is this the time to talk about this? Alright, what compensation do you want? After this matter is settled, let Eunuch Zhang bring you to the storeroom to pick some!”
When he talked about dealing with these matters, his eyes darkened again, and his heart was a little sad.
His eldest grandson really disappointed him. His beloved minister also made his heart ache.
Even raising a dog would make one attached to it after a few days, let alone a person.
Lin Yuelan stretched her hand out in front of Zhou Anping and said,” Lord Zhou, a wise man knows how to adapt to circumstances. Aren’t you asking for trouble?”
Zhou Anping’s eyelids twitched when he saw the pill in front of him. He gritted his teeth and said,” Lin Yuelan, if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have failed at all. We wouldn’t have had to suffer so much.”
Lin Yuelan sneered sarcastically,” Hmph, then why did you provoke me? I’m a narrow-minded person who will always take revenge for the smallest grievance.”
Everyone was speechless.
“Do you really think that you can escape unscathed after provoking me?” Lin Yuelan’s tone was full of mockery and contempt.” You’re simply dreaming!”
Zhou Anping’s face immediately turned ashen. He was embarrassed, angry, and frightened.
They had never expected Lin Yuelan to be so capable.
He had thought that it would be a good thing to frame Lin Yuelan for deceiving the people and the emperor and sending her from the fairyland to hell on earth.
This way, Yuwen Yanyu would be much easier to deal with.
As long as Yuwen Xuhong became the Crown Prince and the ruler of the country, he promised to use the border of the two countries as a line and cut off ten cities for trade.
These ten cities were the key defence of the Black Clouds Kingdom’s attack on the Longyan Kingdom.
However, this was the price he had to pay for helping Yuwen Xuhong.
However, everything had failed.
Zhou Anping glared fiercely at Lin Yuelan and cursed,” Wretched girl, do you want me to eat this pill? Dream on! You might as well kill me!”
When he said this, a glint flashed across Lin Yuelan’s eyes. Then, just as he finished speaking, she dislocated his chin.
No one had expected such a turn of events.
” Princess,” the Crown Prince cried out in surprise,” You…”
He wanted to ask what he was doing.
However, before he could finish his question, he saw Lin Yuelan take out something from Zhou Anping’s tooth socket. His pupils could not help but constrict as he said in shock,” This… This is…”
“This is the poison he hid in his teeth!” Lin Yuelan replied,” I didn’t expect you to be a death warrior!”
As soon as the word “death warrior” came out, Zhou Anping’s expression changed drastically. His expression was extremely ugly.
Not only did Lin Yuelan not expect it, but no one present had ever thought that Governor Zhou Anping, who was a second-grade official in the Longyan Dynasty, was actually a death warrior from another country.
It was simply unbelievable!
The Crown Princess covered her mouth in shock as tears kept flowing from the corners of her mouth.
Because she had never thought that the person she had always admired and wanted to get attention was actually a death warrior, a slave who could not be seen in the light!
Yuwen Xuhong was similarly shocked.
He had always thought that the person who had been working with him was someone of high status in the Black Clouds Kingdom. Even if he was not a descendant of the royal family, he should be a big shot in the imperial court.
However, he never expected that this person would be a death warrior, a slave!
Zhou Anping’s identity had been exposed, and his chin had been dislocated. He looked shocked, angry, and embarrassed.
He wanted to curse, but he couldn’t.
Therefore, he was so angry that his entire body was trembling.
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” Lord Zhou, you’ve really hidden yourself well. I wonder if that youngest daughter of yours, who you love the most, knows about her father’s real identity?” Her words were obviously taunting and mocking.
