Chapter 54: Only the dead can keep secrets
"Yes, princess."
Xiaomi nodded beside him, the expression on his face looked a little strange, but Mu Yifei, who was only concentrating on eating noodles, didn't notice it at this time.
The deep night sky shrouded the entire earth. In the dark underground tunnel on the outskirts of Donglin Kingdom where everyone was asleep, a man wearing a mask was standing with his back to a group of men in black.
A low voice with a bone-crushing chill came from behind the mask——
"Is this what Qianye Yunxuan said?"
"Yes, my lord."
It was obvious that the man in black's voice was trembling when he spoke.
The pair of sharp eagle-like eyes behind the mask narrowed sharply at this moment, causing the surrounding temperature to naturally drop several points.
"So, he knows that the previous princesses did not die in accidents at all? Then why has he not taken action?"
A whisper came out from behind the mask with a somewhat pensive tone.
"This time, is it because of Susukino Wanning's identity that he plans to take action?"
The sound of muttering to oneself came again, and no one behind him dared to speak out.
After a while, bursts of frightening sneers came from the mask again, and each sound was like a sharp knife piercing the heart of the man in black.
"Qianye Yunxuan's thoughts are indeed not simple."
You couldn't tell whether his tone was praise or sarcasm, but his voice was terrifyingly cold.
The next second, a frightening cold light flashed from his mask, and a low and cruel tone came from his mouth:
"You should know what I will do to those who fail the mission?"
"My lord!"
The eyes of several men in black were startled, and they immediately knelt down to the person in front of them, "My Lord, please spare my life, Your Lord, please spare your life."
The sneer came from behind the mask again, and the surrounding atmosphere was cold and depressing:
"In the hearts of people who achieve great things, only the dead can help them keep secrets for a lifetime, and they never like to take risks!!"
At the same time as he said these words, several screams rang out one after another in the underground dark room. Then, all the men in black fell to the ground. Around them, the blood of their companions was flowing.
.
"My lord."
Another low voice sounded in the darkness.
"Clean them up."
"Yes, my lord."
The next day——
"Princess, after breakfast, you need to change into a new set of clothes and enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother."
While Xiaomi was dressing Mu Yifei, she spoke from behind her.
“Meet the Queen Mother??”
After hearing what Xiaomi said, Mu Yifei stopped cracking the melon seeds with her hands and frowned quietly.
She, who had a special interest in melon seeds, suddenly lost interest in eating melon seeds.
Although she has never really dealt with those women in ancient palaces, a woman who can survive intact in a harem like a palace, which is more terrifying than a battlefield, will never live long without a certain amount of scheming.
From this point alone, the Queen Mother is definitely not simple.
Especially, she also gave birth to Qianye Yu, a scheming little tortoise who even plotted against her aunt.
"Yes, princess, as the eighth princess, the protocol is to enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother on the second day of the wedding."
"She's not Qianye bastard, why do you want to meet her??"
Mu Yifei was obviously a little unwilling. The women in the harem were not generally difficult to deal with.
