Book 10 Chapter 6 – The Deciding Factor

While Xiang Shaolong is still undecided, E her to storm out in a huff; instead, she walked slowly to theand released a long breath, gazing at the trees and flowers Xiang Shaolong followed her lead and leaned on thesill, scrutinizing her chiselled face

Although her face is peach-red, heron her past Switching between happiness, anger, sadness and pain is all alternating on her face

Xiang Shaolong is sure that the drug is taking effect, causing her to reveal her hidden and suppressed expressions She has even forgotten her original intention to get Xiang Shaolong to harm Zhao Ya

This Queen of Zhao seean unusual side of her, she seems to have lost her normal will power and sense of preparedness

Xiang Shaolong plucked up his courage and reached out with his hand around her soft and tender shoulder “What is Her Majesty thinking about?” he soothingly asked

E her head, she cried: “I hate him!”

Xiang Shaolong was taken aback and coaxed: “Who dares to offend Your Majesty? Hei! Do you want another cup of wine?”

Irritated, E wine make me feel even worse than before?!” She did not even turn her head and stared at hih the corner of her eye

Xiang Shaolong has a guilty conscience and dare not incur her wrath Releasing his grip on her shoulder, he nodded: “Yes! If you cut water with a knife, the water will still flow on If you drink, the alcohol entering your upset liver will be transformed into tears”

Unknowingly, he sprouted a line fro Dynasty Poet Due to his limited memory, the verse is modified and doesn’t make any sense

E muttered: “If you cut water with a knife, the water will still flow on If you drink, the alcohol entering your upset liver will be transforure started to shake and she faced hi with coldness

Xiang Shaolong is so nervous that his hands and feet turned into ice He cursed hi like an unrefined boor and yet came up with a fantastic line like that

The chill in her eyes faded rapidly as E verse! It is subtle but yet pleasing to the ear For so many years, this is the first ti, her face became even more reddish

Xiang Shaolong was relieved He is certain that she was recollecting her past with Prince Xinling, causing her pretty eyes to turn cold It appears that Prince Xinling has dealt her such a heavy blow that she is still unable to let go after so many years Her tryst with Zhao Mu is likely to be a fornorant about Han Chuang’s and Prince Xinling’s conspiracy

Prince Xinling gained her true love while Zhao Mu is all about perverted satisfaction and excitement

After they gazed at each other for so war! You are a special man”

Xiang Shaolong tested the waters by reaching over and holding her snohite jade hands Her hands are well-ernails

Ehtly and allowed her precious hand to land in this rasp

Just as Xiang Shaolong is about to pull her into his e retracted her hand Her delicate eyes show signs of awakening as she coldly snorted: “Does General Dong knohy I have summoned you?”

Xiang Shaolong was dis and this woive your orders and I will not fail you”

Xiang Shaolong left Han Chuang’s residence and headed to Zhao Mu’s residence at once The traitor is not at hoe and head back to the Cohed: “There are bound to be soht that we can seduce her and break Zhao Mu’s 5exual control over her Who knows! Ai!”

Teng Yi reassured: “She has not given you the ‘evidence’ to plant in Lady Ya’s residence When you e”

Xiang Shaolong shook his head: “First, weSecond, I aet it! It is better than Ya’er leave Handan City and we have one less consideration”

Teng Yi informed: “Talented Lady Ji just sent word that she has infor that she will return to Wei tomorrow From what I see, her departure will stir up some debates and speculation, especially fro”

Xiang Shaolong could understand his

This selfish and devious Li Yuan will not give up on an opportunity that is within his reach Lord Longyang will suspect that she is leaving to rendezvous with Xiang Shaolong

Her leaving of Handan City will not be as smooth as expected

Teng Ti added; “You need not fret over Yanran I have ements Earlier, I have sent someone to move the Tian sisters secretly to the far with Mister Zou (Yan)”

Xiang Shaolong is still worried: “Hoill you deal with Lord Longyang and Li Yuan?”

Teng Yi explained: “Lord Longyang will not resort to force with Talented Lady He will only send spies to observe in secret He will also notify the Wei border guards to track heras we do not allow hiswill be taken care of”

Xiang Shaolong nodded at his brilliance With hi’s spies is a piece of cake

Teng Yi continued: “From my estimates, Li Yuan may resort to force when necessary He cannot send his own men to attack her and can only ask Tian Dan for assistance I will personally escort Talented Lady Ji and Zou Yan with an army of Zhao soldiers We will lay down a decoy and send them to Han instead This will take care of Li Yuan’s ploy”

Xiang Shaolong laughed: “Yanran is not a coth to protect herself Let Big Brother see to this I still need you her to watch over Zhao Ming Xiong and co Xiong’s name list”

Teng Yi asked: “There is so that I still do not coet the Qi ar’s death, he will be in power Killing Li Mu and Lian Po will be easy, not toXu I a and treats you like a pawn His real trust should lie with Zhao Ming Xiong and not an outsider like you He can even blaates to the Qi army and killed Tian Dan and Li Yuan at the sa the aainst the Three State Ally”

Xiang Shaolong ran these thoughts in his head and nodded: “Second Brother is right Zhao Mu will never be satisfied with our independent attitude But things are too coainst Zhao Mu We can only react to whatever situations that arises and wait for a golden opportunity to whisk away Zhao Mu The et Zhao Ya to leave Handan City and all will be better”

An attendant reported that Zhao Mu is here personally to see him and both men were stunned

Teng Yi excused hi hiht other elite warriors that Xiang Shaolong has seen before

Xiang Shaolong gave the like he is seeing hi their first encounter in Zhao Mu’s residence, he guessed that Yan Ping is now allied with Zhao Mu

This Zhao Mohisht and his eyes are , he ained his wounded pride, his skills are at a higher level now

Xiang Shaolong was in agony If Yan Ping and hiswith this traitor will be so much harder

The three men were seated as tea is served and Zhao Mu’s personal escorts guarded the four directions

Zhao Mu gave a dry cough: “Juzi isHe has brought three hundred folloho are all for did not come, so be it If he is here, he will not leave Handan City intact”

Xiang Shaolong feigned happiness and said: “If Juzi needs any assistance, please let me know”

Yan Ping let out a solemn chuckle and commented in a low voice: “After Marquis heard of his return, we have been guarding every pass and waiting for him to fall into our traps We did not even catch his shadohich is extree Fro”

Zhao Mu interrupted: “Xiang Shaolong injured some people near Handan City and escaped Juzi led his men in pursuit to the vicinity of Wei but did not discover any tracks Juzi concluded that Xiang Shaolong is still in the city and is linked to Le Cheng’s assassination”

Xiang Shaolong was shaken No wonder Zhao Mu is generally unworried about Xiang Shaolong returning to Handan City He has Yan Ping as his secret weapon against Xiang Shaolong It is fortunate that he has regained Zhao Mu’s trust so that Zhao Mu revealed Yan Ping’s presence to him

He has been too careless and neglected Yan Ping this huge foe

With his eyes bri coldly added: “We have searched all the nearby forests and villages and there is no sign of hi in the city under someone’s protection”

Xiang Shaolong acted aghast: “Juzi’s theorieshim?”

Yan Ping looked at Zhao Mu before divulging: “Only Zhao Ya has the ability to hide Xiang Shaolong”

Xiang Shaolong declared: “Let me send some men to watch her around the clock We will surely find a loophole Hai! She says I am the only man in her heart So I am only a cover while she is really with her old sweetheart”
