Chapter 1791: Prepare for Battle

es were fixed on An Xuetang, and he frowned:"Uncle, why are you looking at my mother like that I warn you, my mother will always be your sister-in-law. You're not allowed to have any ideas about her,...Today, she finally couldn't take it anymore, so she ordered Xizi Ke'er to be brought into the palace.

Xizi Ke'er, upon seeing the Empress, bowed respectfully. Afterward, the mother and daughter remained silent, their gazes locked in a meaningful exchange.

After a long while, Xi Zi Ke'er finally asked in a languid voice, “I wonder why my mother summoned me to the palace so urgently. Is there something important”

The Queen's eyes were dark and icy as she stared at her, her voice like shards of ice shattering jade, "Even now, you still refuse to tell the truth"

Xizi Ke'er raised an eyebrow. “I wonder what my mother wishes me to say”

To see her acting innocent at this point, the Empress clenched her fists, a flash of killing intent in her eyes. "You met the Princess Consort of Beijang these past few days, why didn't you tell me The Princess Consort has already arrived in the capital, why did you hide it What are you two plotting"

Xizi Ke'er heard her words and immediately showed a look of surprise, "Mother, what do you mean The Princess of Beijiang came to the capital But my daughter hasn't received any news. Besides, if my daughter really met the Princess of Beijiang, how could she not tell Mother"

"Mother, what you said just now was absolutely accusing your son wrongly. Your son truly has never met the Princess of Beijiang, and he doesn't even know that the Princess of Beijiang came to the capital. Mother, are you really sure about the news Is the Princess of Beijiang truly in the capital"

At this point, Xizi Ke'er was still trying to fool her.

The Empress slammed her fist heavily on the table beside her, “You scoundrel! I have received word that you met with the Princess of Beijiang several days ago and even helped her leave the capital discreetly. Now, before me, you dare to deny it!”

No matter what she said, Xizi Ke'er wore a look of complete innocence.

"Mother, you're truly wrongly accusing your son. You speak so surely, but is there any proof"

The Empress slammed her fist on the table again, "Don't play coy! With so many pairs of eyes watching, you still have the audacity to demand evidence from me"

Xizi Ke'er wore a look of innocent confusion, "Who Who saw this humble princess meet with the Princess of Beijang Mother, perhaps you could have him come out and face me. This humble princess swears, I have never met the Princess of Beijang."

Besides, what business does the Princess of Beijiang have in our capital city Even if she had left the capital, it's impossible for her to come to our Xiliang kingdom. Right now, the King of Beijiang is leading his troops in Youlan City. Wouldn't she be better off going there to find her husband instead of coming all the way to our capital city

Xizi Ke'er was adamant about refusing to admit it.

The Empress also knew that no matter how much she pressed, Xizi Ke'er would never tell the truth.

Although her anger burned fiercely in her heart, she was powerless to do anything about it.

At that moment, his eyes flashed with sparks as he stared intently at Xizi Ke'er's composed face, gritting his teeth, "Fine. Very fine."

"You think that if you don't speak, I won't be able to find her As the Queen of Xiliang, I have hundreds of thousands of soldiers under my command. If I deploy them all to search, do you really think a mere Northern Border Princess can escape me"

"After that, she trembled with anger, pointing at the palace gate with her shaking hand, "Get out! Get out of the palace immediately!"

She didn't even want to glance at Xizi Ke'er in front of her.

Of course, Xizi Ke'er didn't want to face her mother, who hated her with all her heart.

So when the queen finished speaking, she immediately turned and walked away without a moment's hesitation.

Upon leaving the palace gates, Xi Zi Ke'er saw Xi Zi Pan'er not far away. Judging by her posture, she seemed to be waiting for him.

Seeing Xizi Ke'er come out, Xizi Pan'er crossed her arms and walked over, "Sister, your face doesn't look good. Were you scolded by Mother"

Xizi coldly glanced at her, "Imperial Sister, is there something"

"Isn't it fine to meet up with your sister and reminisce We're sisters, why must we speak so coldly"

Xizi Ke'er was too lazy to perform the play of sisterly affection with her. At this time, she glanced at the people beside her and immediately rode around Xizi Panger, getting directly on her horse and leaving with a flick of her whip.

Looking at Xizi Ke'er's departing figure, Xizi Pander's expression darkened. The smile from before gradually faded, replaced by a sullen and murderous glint in her eyes.

Back then, she should never have spared her life.

But, no need to rush... she won't be around for long anyway.

......

After returning to her princess mansion, Xizi Ke'er immediately summoned several trusted aides.

Her expression was grave. "Still no word"

Two trusted aides hurriedly bowed. "Your Highness, it's still not found."

Since learning that her mother and Xizi Pander had sent troops to search widely for the whereabouts of the Princess of Beijiang within the territory of Xiliang, Xizi Ker was worried.

She knew White Han wasn't up to any good.

She failed to cooperate with him, and turned around to collude with Xizi Panger, even informing Xizi Panger about the whereabouts of the Northern Border Princess in Xi Liang.

This immediately caused Xizi, Panger, and the Empress to send troops to track down the whereabouts of the Northern Border Princess.

Over the past few days, she has been unable to sleep or eat, fearing that the Northern Frontier Princess might fall into the hands of their group.

Bai Han is searching, and Xizi and her mother's people are also searching.

Xi Liang Guo said it wasn't that big, but if they kept searching like this, they would eventually find the whereabouts of the Princess of Bei Jiang.

But, knowing that the Princess of Beijiang was in danger, she couldn't openly send people to look for her.

Because everyone knows her relationship with the Princess of Beijang is close, everyone has been sending people to watch her every move.

Once she dared to send troops out to meet the Princess of Beijang, she would definitely be tracked. Therefore, the more anxious she was, the less she could act rashly.

She remembered giving Han Yun a map of Xi Liang, marking the path from the mountain road to her training camp.

She believed that Han Yun and the others would definitely bring the Princess of Beijang safely to her training camp.

But she made him wait at the training camp, day after day for several days, and still, he hadn't seen the Northern Border Princess.

Not to mention her mother-in-law was worried, she herself was also in a hurry.

She's afraid something might happen to the princess of Beijng if she doesn't arrive soon.

Xizi Ke'er paced back and forth in the room, her heart pounding anxiously.

At this moment, a trusted confidant suddenly said, "Your Highness, why not let me take a few men to look around Perhaps Lady North Frontier and the others are still on their way. I can lead a group from the training camp, following that road."

"No, absolutely not."

Xizi Ke'er immediately rejected the idea, "Right now, everyone is watching our every move. Once you set off and take action, the path I drew will be discovered. Then it will only bring greater danger to the North Border Princess and others."

Remember, no one is to move without my order. You all wait here in the training camp for now.

"Having said that, she suddenly turned serious, her voice grave. "Also, pass the order down: everyone is to be ready for battle at all times."ill continue to shine.""But the wise ruler who could lift the veil for my subjects hasn't appeared yet. My brothers, perhaps you should patiently wait a while longer. What is destined to come will arr...
