Chapter 1737 - Can’t Hide This From the Royal Family’s Hidden Guards

A resolute glint flashed across Yun Bixue’s eyes. There were many things she had to do.

Actually if it weren’t for the child, with Yun Bixue’s character, she wouldn’t have been able to stay idle.

“Right, Yaoyao didn’t have a military background. Although she’s a general of Country X, she’s able to participate in international military affairs?”

Xie Limo poured Yun Bixue a glass of hot water for her to moisten her throat. He then calmly explained, “She needs to be audited and have her competencies tested against others. After she passes the audit, she could gradually participate in international military meetings and gradually possess international strength. There’s a process.”

Yun Bixue said excitedly, “I’m so happy for Yaoyao.”

She thought that since her best friend was working so hard, there wasn’t a reason for her not to work hard as well.

She knew that Bai Yaoyao had achieved all this with her hard work. Hence, she wasn’t afraid of the hardship and effort it would take to become strong and powerful.

Xie Limo stroked Yun Bixue’s hair. “Actually, you’re terrific too. Even though you’re pregnant, you have done many things and didn’t delay any matters, such as taking part in Country A’s military, economic, and political affairs. Never mind everything else. Just with these three alone, you have sufficient power and influence to shake Country A’s foundation.”

Thinking to herself, Yun Bixue agreed that it was indeed the case. She smiled and said, “That means, even with the pregnancy, I didn’t delay any matters.”

A thought suddenly struck Yun Bixue. Actually, this way, she didn’t need to care about that Princess Yanwu’s identity. If the latter really had bad intentions, she herself had sufficient capability to strike back.

“Yeah, if it weren’t for your pregnancy, I would worry that you can stir up the whole Country A.”

“You’re exaggerating things.”

Xie Limo merely smiled and didn’t reply. He understood his wife—she was happy. If she refused to admit it, so be it!

Suddenly, Yun Bixue’s expression froze. “Limo, I wasn’t talking to you about this matter just now. I was talking about that plane explosion. Those few noble families wouldn’t have had the capability to do this. Someone must have masterminded this in the dark. I’m guessing only the royal family has such an appeal.”

Yun Bixue stared at Xie Limo’s expression as she spoke. Seeing his expression gradually turn cold, she knew her guess was right.

Staring at the faint look in Xie Limo’s eyes, Yun Bixue grabbed his sleeves and said, “Limo, who in the royal family is it exactly?”

Xie Limo glanced at Yun Bixue. Actually, he didn’t wish to tell her for fear she would overthink this, but if he refused to tell her, she would also let her thoughts run wild.

“Is it Majesty Kang?”

Xie Limo remained quiet.

Yun Bixue knew it wasn’t Majesty Kang. Majesty Huang wasn’t likely either. After all, Majesty Huang was the one who came forth and punished those affluent families.

It was impossible for Princess Yanwu to be the culprit either, for she hadn’t returned to the country at the time.

Suddenly, someone came to Yun Bixue’s mind. “Is it His Majesty?”

Under Yun Bixue’s intense gaze, Xie Limo nodded.

Yun Bixue couldn’t believe it. She widened her eyes and stared at Xie Limo for a good while. “No, that’s not right... His Majesty is in poor health. How could he do it? Doesn’t he neglect the politics?”

“Neglecting doesn’t mean he doesn’t get involved in it.”

“But why did he want to kill us?” Yun Bixue then analyzed, deep in her thoughts. “Is it because your surname is Xie?”

Xie Limo reached out to smooth the crease between Yun Bixue’s brows. After that, he stroked her head in a reassuring manner. “Many things had happened in the imperial capital. They can hide it from others, but it didn’t escape the eyes of the royal family’s hidden guards.”

“Since they knew, His Majesty didn’t strike or stop.”

“That’s right. His Majesty wants me to clean up the parasites among the noble families in the imperial capital. Naturally, I want to use this opportunity to replace those families with my own people too.”
