Who knew how many trump cards Helian had? Therefore, Murong Xiu also knew that he couldn't afford to argue with Helian, but Murong Xiu and Helian were different. Murong Xiu had always lived in his own world, and although he would have some feelings for Zi Yuan, he would never be able to make a decision like Helian's. This was why Murong Xiu was sad. Thinking up to this point, Murong Xiu couldn't help but sigh. Helian Lie had done a better job than he had.

Inside the room, Murong Xiu saw Zi Yuan quietly lying on the bed, thinking about something. When he entered the room, the Violet Garden looked at him and asked, "Why are you so impatient?"

"Hehe, that's right. I just want to ask whether Miss Zi Yuan has made up her mind or not." After reorganizing his emotions, Murong Xiu looked at Zi Yuan with a faint smile.

When the Violet Garden saw that Murong Xiu was asking her after hearing the news, she didn't have any confidence for a while. However, he still spoke according to his original plan.

"I promised you, but you have to do what I told you to do."

"Haha, Miss Zi Yuan is indeed a person who knows right and wrong. However, I have a matter that I wish to ask Miss Zi Yuan." Even though Zi Yuan didn't know how to respond to Murong Xiu's sudden request for guidance, he still asked calmly.

"What?" Say it. "

"At this moment, almost all of my people have left Northern Yue Country. However, there isn't a single person that is worthy of my trust. If Miss Zi Yuan truly wants to cooperate with Murong, what about you do the inside work for Murong?" Mu Rong Xiu suddenly said this as he looked at Zi Yuan. When the latter heard this, he was stunned. So he actually wanted me to do this for him.

"Do you know that if I were to work for you in the imperial palace of the Northern Yue, Helian will find out sooner or later." At this moment, Zi Yuan feigned calmness as he spoke.

"Haha, you don't have to worry about that. Helian has put in too much effort for your sake. He won't suspect you." Mu Rong Xiu said with a smile.

"In the end, you still don't believe me?" Zi Yuan retorted.

Sigh, Miss Zi Yuan is too impatient. Even if you make me believe you now, you should at least show some sincerity. Don't worry, I will have someone in the palace to support you. This time, I will let you go back to the Imperial Palace and with you by Helian's side, as long as you are the same as before, Helian won't suspect you. Mu Rong Xiu continued.

The speed of his transformation had caught Zi Yuan off guard. Yet, when he thought about how there were so many people hiding at Helian's side in the palace, Zi Yuan became anxious as well. However, thinking about how it would be better for him and Helian Lie to come up with a solution, his expression abruptly turned cold.

"Alright, I agree."

"Haha, Miss Zi Yuan is indeed straightforward. In that case, Miss Zi Yuan, you're free to go now." Murong Xiu's sudden words gave the Violet Garden an unreal feeling. However, the Violet Garden didn't find anything amiss, so she didn't say anything. Just as he was about to get up and leave, Murong Xiu suddenly called out.

"Wait a moment." Before the Violet Garden could say anything, Murong Xiu suddenly moved closer to her and gave her a kiss. The Violet Garden was stunned for a moment, but it was also this moment that Murong Xiu whispered in her ear, "This is the interest I want to pay back. Do your best."

By the time the Violet Garden reacted, Murong Xiu was already gone. The Violet Garden also stamped her feet with a cold expression. "Murong Xiu, don't let me catch you the next time, or else I'll castrate you!"

"Go to the palace now. Remember what you have to do quickly. Rest assured, I will take care of your family." Mu Rong Xiu said coldly to the person who just came to report.

"Yes, in that case, thank you, Master." That person's eyes flashed with determination and with a trace of reluctance, he left Murong Xiu's side. Murong Xiu, on the other hand, let out a cold laugh.

"Helian, since you value the Violet Garden so much, I'll give her back to you. However, I'll still have to take some interest from you. I, Murong Xiu, won't let this go so easily." At this moment, the Violet Garden was heading towards the Imperial Palace without stopping. Murong Xiu's eyes suddenly turned cold, but he didn't say anything. He turned around and left as well. He had already accomplished his goal in coming to the Northern Yue State, so it was time for him to leave!

Just as he was about to open the door, he saw that his guard was not there, and was puzzled in his heart. He had originally wanted to ask about the news about the Violet Garden, but unexpectedly, he did not see it and was puzzled for a moment. And just as Helian was puzzled, the person returned.

"Humph, a servant like you dares to abandon your duties without permission!" He was already in a bad mood, so when he saw the guards return, he shouted at them. However, that person did not say anything. His movements were surprisingly agile. A dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, ready to stab at Helian Lie. Helian was naturally strong in martial arts. When he saw that this person dared to fight him, he was first shocked, and then he moved his left shoulder to dodge it. A side of inner force surged out, directly shaking the other party's dagger on the ground.

"Men, there is an assassin!" This person could not let him escape, nor could he let him die. Otherwise, the Violet Garden would not have any news, and this voice could be heard by all the ministers waiting outside. Could it be that the Emperor has been assassinated again?

Just as that person was about to escape, the imperial guards had rushed over. However, that person didn't say anything and his gaze suddenly turned cold. He then laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Helian, just wait for Cheng Zi Yuan to take revenge for me." After he finished speaking, he fell to the ground. There was actually a packet of poison in his mouth.

Just as Helian Haoyan was wondering in his heart what he had said, Zi Yuan had arrived at the same time. He had also heard the loud shout, which contained inner energy. It was likely that not many people in the palace would be able to hear it. At this moment, Zi Yuan had also rushed over, and this person was already dead. You bastard actually tricked me.

"Men, capture this demoness for me and protect the emperor." At this moment, a group of officials walked over. How could he not understand when he saw that the Violet Garden was here? How could he not understand that the Violet Garden dared to join forces with others to assassinate the Emperor? Furthermore, the expression on the Violet Garden's face turned green.

When Zi Yuan looked at Helian, she found that Helian's eyes were ice-cold. He did not say anything, but obviously agreed. It was difficult for her to say anything. With so many ministers present, it was likely that no matter what she said, it would be of no use.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Minister of Rites' Vice Minister Wang Jun also came over to ask.

"All of you, step down. This Emperor is not injured, and this matter needs to be investigated. This may not be the case. I still believe in the Violet Garden. Let's press him into the Heavenly Prison first." With that, Helian Lie entered his royal study.

When he entered the prison, she thought about what he had said to Mu Rong Xiu these past two days, but she didn't expect he would make a scene out of her. So it turned out that Mu Rong Xiu had never believed her and had been planning all this while … What was he doing? Even so, if he wanted to deal with her, he could have just killed her. Yet she let him go and put up such a show. Even with Violet Garden's intelligence, she was afraid she couldn't understand what he was trying to do.

In reality, Murong Xiu was thinking that if the Violet Garden was truly willing to submit to him, then the reason why Murong Xiu was doing this was to verify whether his thoughts were correct or not. If the Purple Garden was truly captured by Helian Lie, then he could send someone to bring out the Violet Garden to punish her. This would also prove that the relationship between the two of them was already hostile, so he could be at ease.

He was so anxious to avenge the Violet Garden that it seemed as if a storm was brewing in the entire Northern Yue State. Murong Xiu knew that the relationship between Helian Lie and the Violet Garden should be very close, so he was very suspicious of what Zi Yuan had said. Naturally, Murong Xiu was not willing to kill this woman because he didn't know why, but Murong Xiu still hadn't found a reason to do so, but since the Violet Garden was imprisoned, Murong Xiu's plan had been halved.

If this continued, there would be a day when Helian could not be prevented, so he had to prepare to escape tonight. For others, the Sky Prison might be a place to imprison people for life, but for a killer, no matter what, they would always have a different method to escape. Not to mention that this was still an ancient prison, the moment he thought of leaving the place, Violet Garden would prepare to escape, but just as she was about to open the door, a shadow suddenly floated over, and Violet Garden was about to make her move, only to discover that her opponent had said, "Don't move."

The person who had just arrived was actually Helian. At this moment, Helian was also wearing night clothes.

He knew that, based on Violet Garden's personality, she would definitely run away tonight. This way, no matter what the reason was, it would be useless in the end, and those ministers would definitely make a comeback for this reason. Thus, Helian decided to make himself feel wronged tonight.

"Your majesty, why have you come?" When the Violet Garden saw that the person who had arrived was actually Helian, she was also shocked.

"Let me in first." When the Purple Garden heard Helian Lie's words, it immediately understood and immediately made way for him.
