Chapter 1783: Chi Yang Knew

Chi Yang sighed. He explained very honestly, “A man is indeed by King’s side. However, in actuality, he is not my man—he’s my grandfather’s. His name is Ying, and he was planted by my grandfather when my father was fighting against KE. This man does not belong to the Eagle Special Forces, and he only listens to my grandfather. Usually, he only reports things regarding KE to my grandfather. Although he’s one of my grandfather’s men, my grandfather would never summon him lightly. Two months ago, my grandfather received a report from him saying that Viper had died. He only sent the news more than a month after her death. Doing the maths, Viper has been dead for more than three months now. As for you... Ying never reported anything about you to my grandfather, so when I first met you, I had no idea that my wife was actually the famous Queen.”

“Could he have been wrong in his report? Could King be suspicious of him?”

“No.”

“You’re sure?” Nuannuan looked at Chi Yang with bright eyes, unable to hide her curiosity.

Chi Yang knew that she wanted to know who this person was. He flicked her forehead and said, “No need to make random guesses. You won’t be able to figure out who this man is. For the sake of his safety, I can’t tell you.”

“So... you actually know who King is! You know where he is, too! Maybe you even know where his base is, but you haven’t gone to kill him yet!”

Chi Yang shook his head. “I don’t know where his base is, or else I would have destroyed it long ago. Why would I have let him keep up this arrogant behavior until now?”

“You want to destroy King’s base, and you want to kill Viper—but you don’t want to kill King. Why?”

Chi Yang rubbed Nuannuan’s head. “Some things are confidential. Forgive me for not being able to tell you. I can only say that King is just a puppet, and whom we Eagles want to eliminate was never the King himself, but the people behind him.”

Nuannuan, “...”

This was the first time she was hearing of King just being a puppet.

Then, what had she been doing when she was previously in KE?

“So, you’re saying that Viper was actually being controlled by the person behind King? And there are many things that Viper did that King doesn’t know about, and the person behind her and King is the real person controlling KE?”

“You could say that.” Chi Yang nodded.

Nuannuan, “…”

At this moment, she felt very unsettled.

She felt like being Queen was a stain upon her name.

“That’s why when you asked me to focus on investigating the Shi family and Shi Yalin, I already had an inkling that they couldn’t be Viper. I already knew that the real Viper was dead.

“I investigated the Shi family because their ambitions have always been grandiose. It’s not unreasonable to think that they would resort to such despicable methods to develop a drug. After all, developing the drug is Shi Gen’s and Shi Maowen’s dream. You always said that you felt there was something off about Shi Yalin, but I disagree. The Shi family also lived in the courtyard, but because they did not have a good relationship with the Nangong family and they often did questionable things, they moved. I watched Shi Yalin grow up. She is just a weak young miss. I know very well what she is capable of. You’ve met her before too. She is clearly too incompetent to carry out such a plan.”

Chi Yang’s words reminded Nangong Nuannuan of another matter.

“Big Brother Chi Yang, when did you say Viper died?”
