Chapter 185 Lure the snake out of its hole



In this way, Yang Youxue stayed to take care of Liang Junhao.

Yang Youxue was feeding medicine in the room and asking Liang Junhao.

"Your Highness, have you found out who wants to kill you?" Yang Youxue asked Liang Junhao.

"The initial suspicion is that it was a spy sent by Japan," said Liang Junhao.

Oh my god, how could the Japanese be so bad even in ancient times?

"What country is that?" Yang Youxue asked knowingly.

Keep pretending, let's see how long you can keep pretending, Liang Junhao thought.

"It's a tiny country, nothing to be afraid of. It has many names, such as Dongying, Fuso, and especially Japan." Liang Junhao pretended that Yang Youxue didn't know these names and said them proudly.

"Wow, it's amazing that a country has so many names. Your Highness the Crown Prince dares to underestimate it. Don't reap what you sow." Yang Youxue said.

"The God King is right. I am grateful for your advice." Liang Junhao said humbly.

"Has the killer been caught?" Yang Youxue thought of something and asked Liang Junhao.

"No, our people searched the whole city but couldn't find them. It's like they disappeared into the sea without a trace." Liang Junhao also found it strange. How could people disappear out of thin air? Could it be that they traveled to another dimension like him?

"How could a person disappear out of thin air? He must be hiding somewhere, but you just can't find him." Yang Youxue said.

"That's what I thought at the beginning. After searching for two days and still couldn't find it, I became a little hesitant." Liang Junhao told Yang Youxue the results of the search.

"Your Highness, don't you find it strange? I don't believe anything you say about people disappearing out of thin air. I rather believe someone is hiding them, working with both insiders and outsiders." With her experience as a killer, she was certain there was a traitor within the court. Furthermore, this traitor was in a high position, able to conceal the truth and hide those people in the palace or other secluded locations without anyone noticing.

These are precisely the places that His Royal Highness's men dare not search, or do not think of searching.

"What the God King means is that the people in the capital or some people in the court are colluding with Japan and becoming spies. Then they hide them in the mansion to avoid our search." Liang Junhao was immediately enlightened by Yang Youxue's pointer, and he woke up from his dream.

It was his Youxue who was smart enough to think of these things.

"I will immediately have someone investigate the ministers to see which minister dares to betray the court and collude with Japan." Liang Junhao was ready to let Qinglong investigate.

"Wait a minute, you'll alert the enemy by doing this. It'll make them desperate and they might do something crazy.

The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. Why not hold our ground and lure out that traitor so we can kill him?" Yang Youxue tried to stop Liang Junhao from acting rashly, as this would only alert the enemy. She taught him a trick to lure the traitor out.

"Has the God King thought of any good way to lure the snake out of its hole?" Liang Junhao asked Yang Youxue excitedly.

"Your Highness, think about it, since they want you dead, they must kill you.

If you didn't die, would they take the risk of killing you again?

As long as we have everything arranged properly, we won't be afraid of them coming over. We can catch them all in one swoop." Yang Youxue said.

"God King, please tell me how to catch the turtle in the jar?" Liang Junhao asked Yang Youxue ecstatically.

Yang Youxue whispered the solution into Liang Junhao's ear, and Liang Junhao was overjoyed and his heart was filled with excitement.

It was his Youxue Bingxue who was smart enough to come up with such a good idea.

"Okay, I'll get someone to do it." Liang Junhao said, and called Qinglong in.

After Qinglong came in, Liang Junhao talked to him for a while, and Qinglong left happily.

Soon, news spread in the capital that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been assassinated and seriously injured. He was cured by the Medical Sage and would return to the palace at another day.

Qinglong, Baihu and Bai Chen secretly set up a tight net on the way back to the palace, and there were special forces hiding nearby.

Inside the palace, Concubine Yi and her father, the Japanese assassin, discussed the Crown Prince's return to the palace in Lijingxuan of Chuxiu Palace.

Concubine Yi's father was Xiao Yichen, the Minister of War of Qingxuan Kingdom, and an ambitious man.

For the sake of the Xiao family, Concubine Yi was sent into the palace when she was sixteen years old.

She originally wanted to use her daughter to elevate her family to a higher level. However, things did not go as she wished. The emperor only loved the queen and never showed favor to any concubine other than her.

His hopes were dashed, and he had to find another way to revive the family.

So he thought of collaborating with Japan and reaching an agreement with the Japanese king.

He helped Japan enter Qingxuan Kingdom, and Japan helped him sit on the throne of Qingxuan Kingdom. Then he surrendered to the king of Japan, made Qingxuan Kingdom a vassal state of Japan, and paid tribute to Japan every year.

What he didn't know was that Japan's evil ambitions would make it impossible for him to sit on the throne.

It's just to use him, without using a single soldier to occupy Qingxuan Kingdom and make it a part of Japan's territory.

"Father, the prince has not been killed and is returning to the palace. What should we do? If he finds out and it is us who want to kill him, we will all be finished." Concubine Yi said anxiously and fearfully.

She didn't want to enter the palace from the beginning because she had someone she loved, but her father forced her to enter the palace for the sake of the family.

Only after entering the palace did she realize that the emperor only liked the queen and had never turned over their cards.

In the palace, she lived a life of widowhood, which was undoubtedly the most difficult thing for a beautiful girl like her.
