Cheng Xiao Kui recalled every detail of the rendezvous that Cheng Chun Kui had told her.
She knew where the meeting place between Cheng Chun Kui and Ye Hu, as mentioned by the emperor, was.
Although she wasn't very familiar with the area, she still managed to reach the rendezvous point without making a mistake.
Everything was just as Cheng Chun Kui had said; the man's figure was hidden in the shadow of the big tree.
The already pitch-black night, combined with the shadows of the trees, perfectly enveloped the man.
She said, "I've arrived. What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
The king said, "How could Wild Fox have died so suddenly? Were you there when he died?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Yes, I was there. His cause of death was a sudden heart attack."
The emperor gave a cold laugh and said, "You know that's not the question I'm asking. How did he die?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "I gave him some medicine."
She stated the real reason directly.
Her words clearly angered the king.
The man's tone immediately turned cold, colder than the winter night wind.
"Black Widow, you've got some nerve! How dare you kill your superior so casually! Do you know how serious a crime insubordination is in our organization? Do you know what punishment you'll face?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I think His Majesty should reward me, not punish me."
For someone like me, so loyal to the sovereign and the organization, the Organization Department is rewarding me; surely they don't intend to punish me? Then who would dare to be loyal to the organization and the sovereign in the future?
Her words clearly stunned the man in the shadows of the trees.
The emperor asked, "What did you say? Loyalty to the organization and to me? You said you killed Wild Fox to show loyalty to the organization and to me?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Yes, every word I said is true! Ye Hu went to kill Cheng Chun Kui, but his plan to kill Cheng Chun Kui was exposed. At that time, someone kicked open the courtyard gate and rushed in to see him."
I didn't trust him to kill Cheng Chun Kui, so I was supposed to be his accomplice. But I never expected that things would be exposed.
Not only did the neighbors discover that he had killed Song Wenhui, but I also discovered that someone was secretly following Yehu.
I've seen the people who follow Wild Fox; they're Si Muyang's subordinates! That means Wild Fox's identity was exposed long ago!
Otherwise, why would Si Muyang send his men to track Wild Fox?
I rushed into the yard with my neighbors. When he saw me, he actually tried to reveal my identity!
So I rushed up, pretended to catch the murderer, pulled him off the wall, and while I was covering his mouth with my hand, I stuffed him with a heart attack drug.
After he died, all the doubts and all the clues disappeared with him. We were all safe.
My lord, am I loyal enough to the organization and to you? If we are both captured, will you go to great lengths to have me killed to silence me?
But there's no need for that now. I haven't been exposed. Sacrificing one wild fox can save all of us.
The emperor listened with his hands behind his back, then asked leisurely, "Is he being monitored by Si Muyang's people?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Yes! The person monitoring him is Cheng Qi, who is Si Muyang's subordinate. You can check if you don't believe me."
She gazed leisurely at the figures in the shadows of the trees. Normally, when the ground visibility is zero, the figures are clearly visible under the moonlight.
However, the person was hiding in the shadows of the trees, so she couldn't see anything.
The emperor said, "Cheng Qi is indeed Si Muyang's subordinate. Si Muyang has military power, and he has several squads of soldiers under his command."
This was beyond Cheng Xiaokui's expectations. Cheng Xiaokui only knew that Si Muyang had a class of people under his command, and this class was led by Cheng Qi.
The next moment, she suddenly realized from a reverse perspective that the emperor knew more information than she did!
So it wasn't her who told the Emperor that Cheng Qi was Si Muyang's man and had been monitoring Wu Jianguo.
Actually, the king was testing her to see if she was lying. And she successfully led the king's thinking to another dimension.
She wasn't lying; every issue has a different outcome depending on how you look at it.
According to her, for the same thing, she became a hero who protected the emperor and the organization!
She said, "Since His Majesty already knows the whole story, there's no need for me to say more. Although we sacrificed Wild Fox this time, we preserved the entire supply line."
"The spy network we've worked so hard to build is very difficult to replicate from top to bottom."
The king said, “You’re right. It’s very difficult for us to establish a complete communication line. Although we’ve sacrificed Wild Fox, at least the two of us are safe. I can contact you alone.”
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "What are your orders, Your Majesty? Please tell me. I will definitely carry out your instructions!"
The emperor said, "Cheng Xiao Kui is currently being held in the military headquarters. I don't think it's necessarily true that the military has locked her up. It's not necessarily because the military believes she is a spy. It's also possible that the military is doing this to protect her."
Otherwise, this case couldn't have remained unresolved for so long, and they wouldn't have even sent people to monitor Wild Fox!
Cheng Xiaokui said, "I thought of that too. Logically speaking, her case should have been resolved long ago, and she should have taken the blame for all of us."
But not only was she unharmed, Wild Fox was also being watched. Now everyone knows there are other spies, and they're likely to continue their investigation along Wild Fox's trail!
The king said, "These people have excellent reconnaissance skills. I really didn't expect Wild Fox to be exposed so easily!"
How difficult was it for me to cultivate a downline? It took me several years to do so.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "There's nothing we can do about it. We can only cut off the lines that have already been exposed."
Actually, you can send someone else to replace Wild Fox. I have no objection to whoever replaces Wild Fox; I only want to work for the Lord and our organization.
I have now successfully infiltrated Cheng Xiaokui's inner circle. I can now find out about Rong Shaochuan, Si Muyang, and the secrets within their military compound!
"It's just that I can't get close to Si Muyang right now. Once Si Muyang recovers and returns, I'll be able to get my hands on all the confidential documents His Majesty wants!"
The king said, “Your idea is good. However, we need to consolidate our efforts for now and cannot act immediately.”
Moreover, we should postpone this matter! Postponing it will be more beneficial for us.
After all, this case has been unresolved for a long time, and it's difficult for them to explain it to their superiors. So, when it's time to push them, we have to push them a little!
Cheng Xiao Kui asked, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by forcing them? What are your plans?"
The king said, "During the day, go to the cooperative with the aunties and grandmas to buy vegetables. Remember to make sure everyone sees you chasing after someone!"
Cheng Xiao Kui asked, "I'm pursuing someone? Who am I pursuing?"
The emperor said, "Go and chase after Si Muyang!"
Cheng Xiaokui stared in astonishment at the man's figure and asked, "Your Majesty, are you mistaken? Si Muyang is still in the hospital!"
