The old man’s attitude was very respectful. At first glance, he didn’t look intimidating, nor was he eye-catching.

Heka only saw Pei Qian raise his hand slightly. He didn’t say anything and only gestured to the old man.

Heka saw the old man respond and turn around to smile at him. Even though he had seen many people before, he was still shocked by the old man’s smile.

The old man’s smile was indescribably terrifying. Before he could say anything, he saw the old man take out a small knife as thin as a cicada’s wing from the wooden box he carried with him.

All of this happened too quickly. By the time he understood what the other party wanted to do, more than half of his companion’s cheek had been cut off…

However, this was different from the cruelty he had imagined.

The old man was quite fast, and his movements were very stable. The thickness and size of the flesh under each blade were the same, like fine fish scales…

“As expected, you really can’t feel any pain.” Pci Qian put down the teacup in his hand and observed for a long time before nodding with certainty. “I thought this was just a rumor, but it turned out to be true.”

Heka had always thought that what he had experienced in the Siamese death camp was already hell. It wasn’t until he met Pci Qian at this moment that he realized that what he had experienced in the past wasn’thing in comparison.

He could endure seeing his companion being sliced into bones with his own eyes, but that person actually wanted to boil meat from his companion for him…

Blargh!

“What do you want me to do?” After Heka finished vomiting, he was dragged back to Pei Qian.

He gave up on resisting.

Yes, he wasn’t afraid of death, but he didn’t want to interact with lunatics. It was obvious that the gentle-looking man in front of him was a lunatic.

He was very sure that everything in front of him was indeed just the beginning. If he still chose to resist, the consequences would definitely not be something he could withstand.

“Oh, you’re really not going to resist anymore?” Heka’s attitude surprised Pci Qian. He looked at Heka, who had completely chosen to give up resisting, in disbelief and sighed regretfully. “I thought you could last longer.”

Although he sounded regretful, Pei Qian knew what the most important thing was.

He handed the matter to Qian He, who was beside him. Then, he stood up and walked out.

The tension inside and outside the Imperial Court was diluted by the joy of the Harvest Festival.

In order to appease the people, Nina even dragged Zadeh to appear in front of the people of the Imperial Court to show that everything was fine.

In the current situation, no one cared about such small details. Just as many people thought, no one knew what would happen tomorrow, so they might as well enjoy a happy life now.

The happy crowd formed a long line to celebrate. Everyone sang and danced beside the bonfire and every prayer flag while praying for happiness and peace. They hoped that the weather would be good in the new year and that there would be good harvests.

“Everything’s fine?”

After Nina heard her subordinate’s report, she couldn’t help but frown slightly. This shouldn’t be the case.

According to her deduction, if the Goddess wanted to cause trouble, she naturally wouldn’t give up such a good opportunity to enter the Imperial Court. Could it be that they had other thoughts?

Nina was thinking about the situation when a panicked guard rushed in. “Concubine, there’s bad news!”

Nina had thought of many ways for Gu Han to cause trouble, but she didn’t expect that he would arrange for someone to rush straight into the Imperial Court!

The other party clearly didn’t intend to say much to her. As soon as he rushed into the Imperial Court, he told everyone what Nina had done in the past.

As for Zadeh, who was under her control, no one cared about him anymore.

Just like how Zadeh had laughed at her previously.

Now that all the letters and seals were in Gu Han’s hands, he was undoubtedly the future northern Khan. How could people still care about Zadeh?

The entire Imperial Court fell into chaos because of the sudden attack.

The soldiers in charge of protecting the Imperial Court were not loyal to begin with. Now that they saw the declaration written in black and white, who would be stupid enough to stay behind and lose their lives for other people?

In just a short while, sounds of fighting spread to the surroundings of the Golden Tent.

Nina couldn’t care less about other things at this moment. Under the protection of her trusted aide, she changed her clothes to sneak out of the Golden Tent. Although her position was at stake, she didn’t want to lose her life here.

However, it was obvious that it was already too late for her to leave.

Pci Qian, who was already prepared, smiled at the captured people in satisfaction. “As expected, fighting fire with fire is the best way to deal with fire.”

Nina, who was struggling, glared at Heka, who was standing beside Pei Qian. If she could, she would have pounced on him and bitten him to vent her anger.

She never expected that the person who eventually caused her to be captured was actually one of her own!

“Every man for himself. Don’t blame me.” Heka didn’t feel guilty at all as he looked at Nina and sighed helplessly. He spread his hands out and said innocently, “Besides, even if you run now, you won’t be able to escape. You might as well cooperate with Mr. Pci. Then, you might be able to survive.

We’ve been colleagues for so many years. I’m giving you advice so that you won’t die for nothing.”

“… Get lost!” Nina gritted her teeth in anger when she heard Heka’s words. She had never expected Heka, who had always been quite capable in her impression, to be so shameless and cowardly!

“Don’t be so nervous. You’re safe for the time being.” Pci Qian sized up Nina for a long time before comforting her gently. “Because someone is very interested in you, it won’t be sightly if we get blood on you.”

“You’re from the empire!” Nina stared at Pei Qian for a long time before revealing a knowing smile. “Heh, feel free to kill or torture me!

“Oh, perhaps you don’t have the right to punish me either.. Are you going to hand me over to the new Khan of the northern barbarians to please him?”
