Chu Li maintained his state of surprise. "Your Highness, I'm afraid I do not understand. What do you mean by ploy?"

Using the Omniscient Mirror, Chu Li knew from the beginning that King An was watching from the dark.

He turned around to look at Zheng Lide and Meng Zhi and frowned. "Commander Zheng, Commander Meng, I suggest you two go back and retire. How could such an assassin be allowed inside so brazenly? We even fought for so long, but no one came to investigate at all!"

Zheng Lide and Meng Zhi's expressions turned sour, and they lowered their heads without saying anything.

Chu Li scoffed. "No wonder, is the Lady that unimportant? You know very well that there are martial arts masters out to assassinate her, and yet you do not assign more masters to protect her. On the contrary, you open the gates wide, and leave all the burdens to me? Could it be that you are trying to kill us?"
