Translator: Pika

Zu An secretly snickered at how Zhuxie Chixin seemed too embarrassed to ask his question His own initial panic had already subsided

Zhuxie Chixin had clearly been lying when he said he was just passing by He had a specific objective in iven Zu An before leaving the imperial study, led him to believe that these tere related

Therefore, he spoke first “His Majesty was extreed to store that they had found the perfect time to attack, just when he happened to be away”

Zhuxie Chixin cae indeed,” he continued, following Zu An’s lead “Only a small handful of people would have known that the ehed “That’s why His Majesty instructed me to find out who leaked out this inforh Zhuxie Chixin had surhtly The fact that the eate this matter h he knew that hisout that he was now the target of that suspicion made him question his loyalty just a little

“I’that you aren’t afraid that I could be one of them?” Zhuxie Chixin looked at his new subordinate with amusement He admired how calm this fellow had been on their way to the capital, and what transpired later on had left hihtest objection when he heard that the eolden-token envoy

Zu An forced a smile “Your devotion to His Majesty is known by all those under the heavens Furtherood care of me on the way to the capital, so I obviously understand your moral character Why would you ever secretly collude with assassins?”

Yun Jianyue, as hiding behind the curtains, rolled her eyes This fellow really was a bootlicker Just listening to hih he knew that Zu An was just paying him lip service, it was still music to Zhuxie Chixin’s ears “Indeed, I have a clear conscience I arateful to have the trust of a fellow brother”

At the sahed inside Even this Zu An, whom he had only known a short time, trusted him And yet, the e, already suspected him

Zu An was pleasantly surprised Flattery really was a powerful tool after all! This guy had called hio, yet he now even called hi onto such a powerful fellow! His words may have been seen as flattery, but they were also sincere

The emperor clearly wants us to keep each other in check, but I’m not someone who has blind faith Why would I devote ht killup… Ahe in life is happiness

That hy he didn’t hesitate to tell Zhuxie Chixin about the emperor’s task Whether or not this man leaked out the infor was to draw theether

If he really ith the Devil Sect, they would be on the same side anyway

Of course, there was no way he would tell any of the others this He wasn’t friends with any of them, nor did he understand their character It would be too risky to speak about such intihed and said, “Big brother, you’re too polite I actually wanted your opinion on how to handle this case You are the professional, after all”

Yun Jianyue had a strange expression on her face This guy really is way too casual with his own life He even called Zhuxie Chixin ‘big brother’! He’s probably the only person in this entire world who dares to call Zhuxie Chixin that [1]

Was Honglei fooled by this fellow’s skin, which is thicker than a daers lightly on the table He was clearly turning so over in his mind To Zu An’s request, he replied, “Since His Majesty put you in charge of this investigation, he clearly doesn’t wish for ht not be beneficial to you, as His Majesty will undoubtedly find out Carry out your investigation boldly, and without fear Let me know in the future if you need any help”

When he didn’t call him ‘brother’ this tiotten hi process after all… I suppose I have to find a chance to invite him to a brothel in the future As the proverbs say, ether, and…

But this guy’s face is so white and pale What if there’s so hed “I’ve spoken too seriously We’re comrades, after all It’s only natural that we help each other out You find your task a pain, but I have a huge headache as well His Majesty wants me to find out where that fehtest clue That woman seemed to have vanished into thin air”

He was despondent over all that had happened so far that day, which hy he was conversing so freely with Zu An He would never usually do such a thing

A thought ca-haired woman’s name was Yun Jianyue earlier, and that she was the Devil Sect’s sect master?”

“Indeed” Zhuxie Chixin nodded “I’ve been so proud ofthat, aside from His Majesty himself, no one was my equal I looked down on everyone, yet I actually ended up being defeated by a woman”
