The light gradually dissipated. If it continued, Shi Yao's body would be exposed to everyone without reservation.

Seeing this, Su Qingjue immediately took off his cloak and casually covered Shi Yao with it.

Shi Yao wrapped her body with a cloak and gave Su Qingjue a knowing smile.

"Shi Yao!!"

Zhu Youzhen, who was originally watching the show, suddenly changed his expression.

"How can it be?!"

"This is impossible, I don't believe it!!"

Zhu Youzhen couldn't believe it, nor did he want to believe it.

The woman who made him fall in love, the person who made him willing to admit defeat, turned out to be an undercover agent sent by the other party to lurk by his side.

Zhu Youzhen had a complicated expression and mixed feelings.

Distress, resentment, surprise, sadness, and a little surprise.

The surprise was that before Zhu Youzhen was captured, he was worried that Shi Yao would be implicated by him.

But now that he knew Shi Yao was actually the other party's person, he actually felt a little relieved.

Zhu Youzhen looked at Shi Yao affectionately: "You..."

"Ugh......"

Zhu Youzhen sighed, shook his head and looked bitter.

He originally wanted to ask Shi Yao whether she had feelings for him.

But at this point, it's hard to tell the other party's attitude.

Shi Yao approached him only to destroy Daliang and had no feelings for him at all.

"Your Majesty." Shi Yao said softly.

Hearing this, Zhu Youzhen suddenly raised his head, with hope in his eyes.

"What do you want to say?"

Zhu Youzhen earnestly hoped that Shi Yao would say in person that she had feelings for him as well.

But Shi Yao's words made his mood instantly plummet.

Shi Yao said softly, "The emperor promised before that if Li Cunxu breaks into this palace, he will let me chop off your head. I wonder if the emperor can keep his promise?"

Hearing this, Zhu Youzhen gave a bitter smile, then sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes dull and lifeless.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. You will not be alone on this journey. The Prince of Jin will accompany you."

Zhu Youzhen fell silent and did not respond.

Instead, Li Cunxu slowly got up from the ground.

He staggered towards Su Qingjue. Seeing him like this, the bad guys dressed as actors immediately stopped him with swords.

Su Qingjue said softly: "It's okay, let him come over."

"Yes."

Li Cunxu walked up to Su Qingjue, bowed and said, "Since the general is unwilling to give me a chance to live, can you allow me to sing a song for you before I die?"

"Please."

Li Cunxu turned around and looked at Mirror Heart Demon again.

"Mirror Heart Demon, can you play for me one last time?"

The Mirror Heart Demon looked at Su Qingjue, and when he saw that Su Qingjue did not say anything to stop him, he said softly, "I am willing to serve you."

Then, the Mirror Heart Demon struck the scabbard with his sword, making a crisp "clang" sound.

Li Cunxu picked up a pot of fine wine from the golden table in front of the dragon throne.

There is no taboo, just drink directly from the pot.

"Wow!"

The silver bottle broke and some of the wine splashed everywhere.

Li Cunxu sang loudly while holding a long sword.

"Zhao Keman Hu Ying~~Wu Gou Frost and Snow Bright~~"

"The silver saddle shines on the white horse~~ the horse gallops like a meteor~~"

"..."

"Even if I die, my heroic spirit will remain intact~~ I am not ashamed of being a hero in the world~~"

"Who can write for you~~Whitehead Taixuan Sutra~~"

"Ha ha--"

"If there is an afterlife, I would like to be a knight in the martial arts world, roaming the world with a sword!!!"

Hiss!

As Li Cunxu twisted his body, the sword cut across his neck.

In an instant, a large amount of blood spurted out, and a wisp of blood mist appeared.

Li Cunxu collapsed to the ground. He had not yet died, his body was still shaking, and he was making hissing sounds from his mouth.

With every tremor, blood would gushed out from its neck like a fountain.

Li Cunxu stared at the dragon throne with his eyes wide open, the unwillingness on his face still obvious.

After a long time, Li Cunxu's brows relaxed, and all his resentment disappeared, perhaps because of some beautiful dream he had.

He also fell silent.

Seeing Li Cunxu committing suicide right in front of him, Zhu Youzhen came to his senses.

He looked at Shi Yao, then at Su Qingjue.

Zhu Youzhen asked: "Do I have a chance of survival?"

"..."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhu Youzhen knew that this was wishful thinking.

Since you know you are going to die.

Before he died, Zhu Youzhen had some confusions that he wanted to figure out.

He asked softly, "Can the general see my second brother?"

"You mean the Ghost King?" Su Qingjue replied.

"Exactly."

Su Qingjue calmed down: "He's dead. I killed him."

"Oh..." The last glimmer of hope in Zhu Youzhen's heart was shattered.

He looked at the ropes around him and whispered, "I'll do it myself, can you help me untie them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ropes on his body began to burn on their own.

"What a good trick!" Zhu Youzhen exclaimed.

He stood up, walked to Li Cunxu, picked up the sword and put it on his neck.

"call......"

Zhu Youzhen exhaled, looked at Shi Yao and said, "You should do it. I'm afraid of the pain and can't do it."

Shi Yao bowed slightly to Su Qingjue, then walked towards the platform.

After taking the sword from Zhu Youzhen's hand, he put it around his neck.

"Your Majesty, have a pleasant journey!"

Hiss!

The same voice sounded again.

This time, Shi Yao directly chopped off Zhu Youzhen's head.

She walked up to Su Qingjue and said, "Li Cunxu and Zhu Youzhen are dead. What should we do next?"

Su Qingjue had already planned it out.

He said in a deep voice: "First, get rid of those masters outside the imperial city, and then..."

Just then, a bad guy walked in from outside.

He came to Su Qingjue and said, "Captain, the spy sent a letter saying that Li Keyong, the Prince of Jin, and Li Siyuan, the Saint of Tongwenguan, are leading their troops to Bianzhou and have now arrived in Xinxiang..."

Upon hearing this news, Mirror Heart Demon said:

"I didn't expect that Li Cunxu's letter would really work."

"I tricked him into saying that he had taken over Bianzhou, hoping to lure Li Keyong out."

"I didn't have much hope for this matter in the first place. After all, Li Keyong is a cautious person. I never thought it would actually work."

Su Qingjue smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps Li Siyuan also contributed to this."

"He wishes the King of Jin would die sooner so that he can take the opportunity to ascend to the throne..."

The Mirror Heart Demon asked, "Then how should we respond if the Jin army attacks?"

Su Qingjue smiled calmly and said, "I have a clever plan!"
