To his disappointment, this old pridom and should be very familiar with the ancestral shrine, contended that he had never heard that there was a hidden passage or secret chadom is just a small country with a ss However, no matter how small a country is, the royal family of the country may have some secrets that outsiders don’t know Unfortunately, I’m just an outsider The queentrusted her veryso, the old prime minister easily cleared himself of the suspicion He ell aware that once the crown prince returned to the country, the queen and the little prince would never be back in power He decided to put all the blame on them at this e on hion King was notlord ordered his soldiers to send the old prime minister back to his room and keep hi to the priuards to deliver meals to him everyday

After that, Gu Shenent to meet with the queen He discovered that every time he met the queen, her attitude was soood times very well but found it quite hard to face bad ti, she finally cauan Jianyi kept his proure out a way to keep herself and her son alive before he returned with a large ar What can I do for you?” She was no longer arrogant or flirtatious and talked in a submissive tone with only a little sarcas whether the crown prince would be a rival to this woht, he realized that this frag for hi, but he did not have to help hi all his eneed cohout the conversation

This was the nore of ten in the face of the Dragon King

“Is there any hidden passage or secret chamber inside the ancestral shrine?” asked Gu Shenwei

The queen was surprised to hear that the Dragon King was interested in the ancestral shrine “No, I’ve never heard His Majestyfor a secret chamber, I can let you use the secret chambers inside the royal palace In fact, they can’t be counted as secret chambers They’re just secluded rooes, there’s no such a thing in this city This isn’t the first tied No one is said to have sneaked out of the city through a hidden passage before,” replied the queen

“Have you ever heard of Chipo?” asked Gu Shenwei

The queen shook her head Chipo was faion, but the royal families had never heard of this na the siege? I need you to think carefully before answeringand hard about the , “Is this thing very i that, Gu Shenwei thought to himself, “It seems that the queen has not yet admitted defeat She still wants to squeeze every possible benefit out of the negotiation for herself and her son by providing me with the information that I’m interested in She probably even thinks that she can turn the tables onthis”

“Yes, it’s very iave her some hope and tempted her to tell him the truth

“You probably have already known this, Dragon King The Hui Kingdom was not the only one who secretly offered support to the Golden Roc Fort during the war Many countries were two ti you before the end of the war”

“Well, that’s why I didn’t kill you You’re just a little bit more hasty than the others Anyhow, do yourself a favor and don’t trust the Supre his poith anyone else and will feel uncomfortable when you make a vital contribution to his cause At that tion King in surprise She had never expected hi I’s Don’t laugh at me”

After a e, about 10 people suddenly cauan Jianyi He received theht The next day, he left the Hui Kingdouan Jianyi said that they were going to persuade the soldiers from the five countries around the Xiaoyao Lake to betray you” Gu Shenas surprised that she told hi in return

uan Jianyi and about 10 bandits? They can’t stir up ood, but not superb When it comes to assassination skills, he can hardly compete with an ordinary Golden Roc Fort killer

“The queen seems to be honest withto cosy up to me Nevertheless, I still can’t overcome my distrust of her She seems to have told s are convincing enough</eain to make her tell me the truth That child is her weakness

“However, at this moment, I can’t raise any specific question or prove that she has been lying to me all this while Even if I use the little prince to threaten her, she will possibly lie again,” thought Gu Shenwei</e the hilt of his saber He was certain that the queen still had a secret and this secret had nothing to do with Chu Nanping or the other questions he had asked her before She learned quickly and got increasing better at hiding her true feelings However, she was still a beginner and would accidentally reveal her true feelings fro with the queen, he left the palace and returned to his ca his troops to occupy the ancestral shrine

It was not a good idea, especially when he intended to perion and ainst the Golden Roc Fort He needed the Hui nation’s support

The Hui people had not been hard on him when he had thrown their queen and ministers into prison, since those people had deliberately concealed the death of their previous king and planned toHowever, if he occupied a country’s ancestral shrine without giving its people any reasonable explanation, the people would take this as a public hunation

Given this, he sincerely hoped that he could solve the probleht

The only clue he had noas Han Fen, a sirl She had Maid Lotus’ broken sword in hand and was perfordom Gu Shenwei could not deny that she did look like a disciple of the New Moon Hall but he could not completely trust her, since he remembered clearly that there were some disciples of the New Moon Hall considered Maid Lotus as their ene to achieve that goal

Considering that his encaement before his departure He asked a soldier to pretend to be hiheng in his tent

Upon hearing the Dragon King’s very risky plan, both of the two ainst his decision However, they were not Zhong Heng and Fang Wenshi+ and unable to dissuade hi that

In fact, Gu Shenwei had not told them his entire plan He never intended to take any risk Instead, he only planned to create an excuse for the Dragon army to openly search and occupy the ancestral shrine tomorrow

He spotted Han Fen at about 9 p the day and kept watch on the shrine at night, so she looked very energetic at this moment She crouched on a roof near the shrine and every now and again, she would et a better view of the shrine

Gu Shenwei discovered her when she wasto a new place but he did not follow her One hour later, he saw her co followed by three people

Han Fen had stopped the Dragon King froht, and thus had alerted the enemies

Gu Shenwei looked coldly at the to help Han Fen out
