the tiger poised to pounce at any moment, Old Liu cowered in fear."Our family... Our family wouldn't dare to discuss matters concerning the Emperor. That would be a capital offense, our family can't s...Explosives
Seeing Feng Ming suddenly bring this up, An Xue Tang raised an eyebrow, an unbelievable thought flashing through her mind.
"A smile then played on her lips as she spoke softly, "Brother, are you saying that the time has come for a change of leadership in Xi Liang That it's time for me to take that throne"
Feng Ming nodded with an extremely calm expression, "Since her situation is already so difficult now, making a decision sooner would be much better than dragging it on. Some things change when you drag them out, it's better to ask her opinion and cut through the mess quickly."
"Deal with all the risks around you, or she'll have to wait forever. You heard it yourself, her current situation is far from favorable."
“The Empress of Xi Liang and her elder sister no longer tolerate her. If she continues to drag things on, will she not be tricked one day When that day comes, if she wants to turn things around, it will be very difficult.”
Feng Ming said this point, An Xue Tang felt reasonable and agreed with such a practice.
Indeed, judging from the current situation, this Western Liang kingdom's Empress and the ruthless Xi Zi Planner have already begun to target Ke'er. If she fails to turn the tide, with her own capabilities alone, she will undoubtedly face grave danger. A slight lapse in judgment could lead her into an abyss of ruin, from which there is no escape.
Therefore, the best way is to act swiftly and decisively, completely eradicating the threats in this capital city. We should elevate Xi Zi Ke'er to that position, securing her reign as the Empress of Xiliang.
But at this moment, An Xuetang suddenly thought of something. She frowned slightly and shook her head. "Actually, the explosives I gave Ke'er before weren't many. After all, she is from Xi Liang country. Even if I trust her, I couldn't give her too much."
It's not that she doesn't trust Xizi Ke'er, but years of survival experience have taught her that even the best relationships can sour when it comes to major interests.
So even if she trusts Xizi Ke'er very much, she still has to keep a hand, ensuring that Ke'er has the opportunity to threaten her and Mo Yunjing and others.
Otherwise, if too many explosives are given to Xizi Ke'er, who can guarantee that she won't team up with her own mother to attack another country
So the explosives given to Xi Zi Ke'er at the time were barely enough to allow her to fend off one or two enemy ambushes.
However, these days I haven't heard her use this dynamite. But even if she had given it to her, she would have kept it all, which wouldn't be much help.
This amount of explosives is nowhere near enough to force a palace coup.
At this moment, Feng Ming let out a mysterious smile. “Capture the king to capture the thief,” he said. “My brother’s intention is certainly not to have you use these explosives to overthrow the Western Liang court.”
"... "
An Xuetang was surprised for a moment upon hearing this, but soon guessed what Fengming intended to do.
She raised an eyebrow, but she still couldn't guess whether the one who wanted to make a move was the Empress or Xi Zi Pán’er.
She stared at him for a moment, then smiled and asked, "Brother, do you think we should start with whom"
"We've only just entered the capital of Xiliang, and haven't gotten a clear picture of the situation yet. As for who to target, we'll wait until tonight when my brother gathers more information."
He said that the information about the palace was just a feel, and he wanted to personally investigate how easily the palace of this Xiliang country could be breached.
If it's a good plan, naturally one should strike directly at the empress in the palace.
Xizi and her sister are now under house arrest. Once the Empress dies, the two princesses will vie for the throne. Naturally, both the officials and the people will choose the strongest one to rule.
And who is the strongest
By then, it'll surely come down to who survives.
He believes that since Xizi Ke'er has explosives in her hands and dares to confront Xizi Panger these days, she must have gained a certain amount of power.
Once the queen died, Princess Xi Zi Ke'er would surely outmaneuver her sister in their power struggle.
After a moment of silence, An Xuetang looked up at the subordinates of Qingyun Pavilion and said, "Lead the way, let's go see Xizi Ke'er first."
Qingyun Pavilion's subordinates bowed, "Yes, Your Highness and Young Master Feng, please follow us."
……
At this time, Xi Zi Ke'er's situation is indeed not good.
Although Xi Zi Pan'er was confined by the Empress, she couldn't swallow her anger after losing to Xi Zi Ke'er.
For the past two days, she had already sought out countless martial arts masters from the Wei River Valley, attempting to break into Princess Xizhi's palace and assassinate her.
Even, she bribed the servants in Xizi Ke'er's mansion, preparing to give Xizi Ke'er a surprise, but none of them succeeded.
Tonight, she sent out nearly the strongest martial artists she could find. They were hired at a high price by her. Whether they succeed or not depends on tonight. Right now, she is anxiously waiting in her manor.
......
And in the other princess's manor, Xizi from the west wing had just come out of her study. Like she always did, she ordered a bowl of bird's nest soup after returning to her room.
Soon, a maidservant at her side brought over a bowl of bird's nest and placed it on the table. She softly asked, "Would Your Highness like to eat the bird's nest before bathing or bathe first and then eat"
Xizi Ke'er slowly raised her head and glanced at her, then turned to look outside the door. "Are you still guarding tonight This palace remembers that it was you last night as well."
The maidservant's heart tightened instantly. She didn't expect their princess to suddenly care about their night duty, but the fact that their princess still remembered it was her turn last night filled her with excitement. She quickly curtsied:
“Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. I only finished my night shift last night. Tonight, it was supposed to be Little Hua’s turn, but she said just now that she wasn't feeling well and might bump into you, so I swapped shifts with her.”
As for the shift changes between maids, Xizi Ke'er didn't pay much attention, just nodding calmly, "Can you handle it Otherwise, we can change to another person. There's no need for you and Xiaohua to take turns day and night. If it gets too tiring, we can add two more."
The maid was instantly touched, and quickly shook her head, "Thank you, princess, but I'm capable."
Seeing her face, it seemed she was doing okay. Xizi Ke'er didn't continue to say anything.
At this moment, he reached out and lifted the bowl containing bird's nest, stirring it while seemingly lost in thought. His eyes held a thoughtful expression.
And this maidservant's eyes were carefully fixed upon the bowl of bird's nest.
When Xizi Ke'er scooped a spoonful and was about to put it in her mouth, her hands clasped tightly in front of her, her knuckles turning white.
Xizi Ke'er had already brought the spoon of bird's nest to her lips, but at this moment, she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped. She looked up at the maid, clearly seeing the panic and nervousness in her eyes.
Xizi Ke'er had never seen such an expression on the faces of those around her, and she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.vements to it.The improved effect is very good.
