Chapter 289: Xu Ping'an's Ordeal

Early the next morning.

Qin Mu left the Imperial Capital City with his people.

Inside the Imperial Palace, Consort Hua's face was filled with astonishment.

"Are you saying Qin Mu left on his own? And he took with him his four Seventh Rank subordinates?" Consort Hua asked in disbelief.

"Yes, the Ninth Prince has left, and Xu Ping'an didn't go with him. Xu Ping'an stood alone at the North City gate, seemingly waiting for someone. However, the Ninth Prince left his Eighth Rank Strongman with him," replied the palace maid.

"Interesting, Qin Mu actually abandoned Xu Ping'an? In this way, Xu Ping'an is bound to die without a doubt. Without Qin Mu, even if Qin Hanshuang truly helps him, he's doomed, and I can even take the opportunity to cut off Qin Hanshuang's hands and feet, killing two birds with one stone," Consort Hua said with a radiant smile.

Heaven really was helping her.

"Do we all mobilize this time?" the palace maid asked.
