The Story Of Dusk

Chapter 174

Zhao Tianqi"s eyes widened in fear as she felt cold sweat started to form on her forehead, she had to think about the way to escape of this situation, as soon as possible, or else there would be no way out anymore.

She tried to engage a communication through her eyes with the guards, but he couldn"t catch the secret signal in time.

"Catch him!" Mo Qin Yi roared, at the same time, his personal guard dashed toward the man who was pointed by the a.s.sa.s.sin.

Everyone who was close to Zhao Tianqi and was in the inner circle of the Imperial family, would have known about who was that man.

That man was no other than Zhao Tianqi"s personal guard, if it was really him, who had used and smeared Mo Qin Yi"s name, then there was high possibility it was under Zhao Tianqi"s order.

However how could that thing even possible? They just married for months, but the woman had schemed against her own husband and risked his life to be a perpetrator in the murder incident? Was that even made sense?

Zhao Tianqi"s personal guard"s eyes fell on the a.s.sa.s.sin, who was sitting on the floor in sorry state. He was one of the a.s.sa.s.sins that he had hired. Suddenly realization hit him as he realized the man was pointing his finger on him.

Actually, he was there to report about the concubine Lin Xingyan"s whereabouts and wanted to relay this news immediately to his mistress, he was being careless and now he would be in danger.

The moment the understanding down on him, it was too late, as Mo Qin Yi"s personal guard had stood beside him and tackled him down.

He tried to struggle from his grip, but apparently the gap of their ability was quite far, because he found out he couldn"t set himself free and was pressed down on the floor ruthlessly.

This scene created quite commotion and an uproar as both of the personal guards were fighting with each other.

"You will not be able to see the sun tomorrow if you keep struggling." Mo Qin Yi"s personal guard warned the man beneath him, he was struggling too, to keep him under his control.

"What are you doing!? I am the crown princess"s personal guard!!!" That man roared, trying to find a way to escape.

Those people who didn"t know at first who was that man was stunned when they heard his confession.

"What was that mean?" One of the n.o.blemen asked to the person next to him.

"Crown Princess wanted to kill her own husband?" Another person started a row of question.

"Is not that counted as an imperial offense?"

"But, they were husband and wife."

"There must be something behind all of this."

"Crown Princess Zhao Tianqi is from prominent family. There is no way she will act so brazenly."

"But, the proof is right before our eyes."Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

And then another and another question that buzzing inside the huge room as no one was in adversity to digest the truth.


Meanwhile, Zhao Tianqi"s blood had drained from her face, her heart hammering her ribcage painfully as if it wanted to jump out of her body.

She really wanted to hit her guard"s mouth for saying such a thing loudly. Someone should kill him before he could utter another word.

Zhao Tianqi was holding a knife in her hand, ready to stab her subordinate to death, to silence him forever. If he was about to talk about her, it wasn"t only this issue that would fall on her shoulder, but also her other wrong doing that would be counted, the moment he opened his mouth.

However, Zhao Tianqi could muster enough courage to bring herself to stab him to death. She was afraid, she had never killed anyone before, at least not directly, because all of that was Zhao Tianqi"s order as he would be the executor. There was more than dozens wrong doing that would be charged on her.

"Princess Zhao helped me, I don"t know anything!" That man shouted at Zhao Tianqi for help. "Princess I am your loyal servant, please tell them I don"t know anything about this!" He kept shouting when he was thrown to the center of the room.

Mo Qin Yi"s personal guard, threw him to Mo Qin Yi"s feet with smug smile on his face.

How dare this person slandered his master"s name and misunderstanding him as the person who had hired the group of a.s.sa.s.sins. Death would be a better end for him tonight.

"Is this him!?" Mo Qin Yi looked like he didn"t have a merciful bone within him as he grabbed that man by her hair and turned his head toward the a.s.sa.s.sins behind him. "Answer me!!!" He was very livid with the late response.

"Yes, yes…" That man nodded his head hastily upon hearing Mo Qin Yi"s overbearing figure and penetrating eyes. "This is the person who said that he was the Crown prince"s trusted guard…" He answered in matter of fact"s tone.
