Chapter 1821 - The Ringing of The Bell



Chapter 1821: The Ringing of The Bell

Listening to Dongfang Mujin speak, Yun Bixue cast him a cold glance. “Cut the crap. Where’s the baby?”

Even as Dongfang Mujin was being trapped like this, he leisurely shrugged his shoulders and said, “Gave him to Xie Limo.”

Yun Bixue narrowed her eyes dangerously, a cold glint flickering across it. She tightly grasped Dongfang Mujin by the neck and stared into his eyes. “You’re lying!”

“I really gave it to him. I was running away by jumping into the sea. I couldn’t very well swim with the baby, could I? So I gave it to him.”

Yun Bixue exerted more force into her grip. “You’re still lying!”

“Think about it. If I didn’t give him the child, he would surely continue to hunt me down to kill me. Would I have been able to swim here? Of course not…”

Dongfang Mujin felt that those two were indeed a married couple—when they got ruthless, they left no room for negotiation, as if they didn’t need a reason to kill you.

But he did have a heightened opinion of them now. It turned out Xie Limo had better judgment than he expected!

Dongfang Mujin didn’t know if he found himself a treasure. He didn’t feel like a prisoner at all.

Yun Bixue ordered her men to bring him inside the ship and interrogate him. After that, she commanded all the ships to prepare to head back.

She wasn’t planning on killing Dongfang Mujin herself. She decided it was better to let Xie Limo handle him.

While the imperial capital was in chaos, there was also the stench of blood in the palace.

In the middle of the night, the bell on the imperial capital’s high tower rang thrice… astounding everyone.

The ringing of the imperial capital bell indicated that His Majesty had passed away.

When everyone heard the bell ringing, they unanimously halted in their steps as they listened for that resounding ringing of the bell.

Everyone knew that this seemingly rising wind forebode the coming storm in the imperial capital.

When the bell rang, on the late-night news, Xiajun Yanwu personally held a press conference, which was broadcasted live.

Weeping heavily, she announced to everyone that His Majesty, her father, had passed away.

Her sorrowful manner made the audience watching the news can’t help but feel sad too. After all, a beauty’s sorrow and tears made one feel heartache and worry for her. This was exactly the kind of effect Xiajun Yanwu hoped to achieve.

Everyone ought to be asleep at this time, but with the ringing of the bell, everyone had woken up. Naturally, they had to tune in to the news to find out what happened.

In a bid to gain sympathy from everyone, Xiajun Yanwu continued, “My father could have lived for longer, but tonight, he was assassinated.”

A reporter asked, “Your Highness, may we know who assassinated His Majesty?”

Sobbing really hard, Xiajun Yanwu said, “It’s… it’s Deputy Xie!”

Hearing this, all the reporters and audience before the TV were astounded, not daring to believe this.

Most of the Xie family’s hidden forces turned up their noses at this, not at all believing something like this.

But the ordinary civilians, who were easily misled, did not know this. Plus, on the news, Xiajun Yanwu showed photo after photo of the gory scene in the palace, making it hard for the audience to doubt what she’s saying.

Because of this news, Xie Limo became the center of public fury. The crime of killing His Majesty was especially unpardonable.

Although Xiajun Yanwu felt an intense unease in her heart, she told herself that in order to become queen, there’s nothing wrong with any of this.

Also, since she couldn’t get Xie Limo, she didn’t wish to let Yun Bixue have him as well!

Xiajun Yanwu felt that she was about to gain control of Country A very soon. However, unknown to her, she was about to even lose her status as a princess.
