: This one trick hides the truth from the world

Author: Xi Yueshi

Night, Apocalypse Palace, Imperial Study Room, Dark Hall.

Emperor Mingxi's voice turned cold: "Your leader is so good at martial arts. That man was able to escape from his hands."

The secret guard quickly replied: "Back to the emperor, we also thought about this issue when we were looking for someone."

"I think that person's martial arts skills are quite high. And it's not easy for him to be able to evade our tracking without leaving any trace at all."

Emperor Mingxi asked coldly: "Where's the back?"

The secret guard quickly said: "We still couldn't find any trace of that person. It took a few months for the leader to come back from outside on business."

"The leader knew that we couldn't find it, so he told us not to look for it anymore. The matter just ended like this."

"The leader never mentioned it again. It wasn't until his subordinates saw the man in Yunzhou that they told the leader. That's when the rest happened."

The other secret guards quickly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, that's what happened."

At this moment, Emperor Mingxi was silent, staring at the people in the palace with scrutiny.

Several secret guards kneeling in the palace, their backs were wet with sweat at this moment, and they were still kneeling fearfully.

Black Eagle on the side was also shocked. The leader has always been the most loyal to the emperor. But he actually concealed so many things from the emperor.

for a long time.

Emperor Mingxi spoke again: "What else do you know about your leader's private house?"

The secret guard who had just been pressed down by Ying Yi hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, my subordinates also found out by accident."

"At that time, it was the Chinese New Year, and we could also take a few days off."

"That day, several of us brothers went out together and wanted to buy some delicious food for everyone to have a good New Year."

"And that day, my subordinate happened to be arranged to buy barbecue on that street. When he left after shopping, he saw the leader coming out of the private house carrying a bag from a distance."

"And every time during the Chinese New Year, the leader would go out for a few days. At that time, I thought that the leader should be getting ready to go out."

"Your Majesty, my subordinates really only learned about it accidentally, and never went there again. It wasn't until some time ago, that night, that I saw the leader was injured. I was worried about him, so I went to see him in his private residence."

"But the subordinates didn't know that they were on an errand with the leader. They didn't even know that the leader was injured because of this."

"Your Majesty, everything my subordinates said is true. By the way, there must be records in the steward's diary. I was really not responsible for that errand, and my subordinates did not lie."

"On that day, when I arrived at the door, I heard the leader say those words, and I hurried away."

"Your Majesty, everything my subordinates say is true. Please tell me clearly."

After saying that, the secret guard was trembling all over and breaking out in a cold sweat... He did not expect that things would turn out like this.

The leader has always been trusted by the emperor, and they have always known that following the leader on errands is definitely the right thing to do.

Who would have thought that seeing that scene would cause so much trouble. If I had known better, I shouldn't have said anything!

After a moment, Black Eagle also said: "Your Majesty, he is right. Every time they go out on business, they must be recorded in the diary."

"The steward must record the number of people and where they went in the diary. Among the two people who have not returned, one of them is the steward. When he comes back, you can ask him for the diary to read."

After hearing this, Emperor Mingxi was silent, and then spoke again: "Where are the others?"

Several other secret guards quickly bowed and replied: "Back to the emperor, we really don't know about the leader's private house."

Emperor Mingxi instantly looked at the black eagles on the side, Ying Yi and An Yi.

The three of them took a look and hurriedly bowed and replied: "Go back to the emperor, we don't know the leader's private residence either."

At this moment, Emperor Mingxi looked at everyone in the palace with scrutinizing eyes.

After a long time, he finally spoke: "Black Eagle, place them in another place. Let them draw that man's portrait immediately."

"Ying Yi, An Yi, follow me."

Black Eagle, Shadow Yi, and An Yi quickly bowed and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

With that said, he got up and left the main hall.

Secret room.

After a while, Emperor Mingxi came to the stone door of the secret room.

Emperor Mingxi took a jade buckle from his body and inserted it into the groove on the stone door of the secret room.

After a while, the stone door of the secret room slowly opened.

Emperor Mingxi walked in and sat behind the desk. Ying Yi and An Yi hurriedly followed in, while Ying Yi closed the stone door of the secret room.

Emperor Mingxi said: "Find out the information about that disciple for me immediately."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ying Yi and An Yi bowed and responded.

Just now, he turned around and went to the bookshelf nearby and rummaged through it. The information on this bookshelf was the personal files of all the royal guards.

Time passed little by little.

Ying Yi found a piece of writing and hurriedly bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, the information is here."

Emperor Mingxi immediately raised his head to take the letter, looked down, and a line of words came into view... Xiao Tianhao, a disciple of Xiao Yun, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, was twelve years old, and entered the palace as a royal secret guard.

Emperor Mingxi quickly turned to the end, and a line of words came into view again... On August 19, the seventh year of Zongyuan, he died accidentally while on a mission.

At this moment, Emperor Mingxi clenched the slip with both hands, his whole body was filled with cold air, and his eyes were full of anger...

You are really powerful! You control my secret guards with one hand, but you try to hide it from the world! You think of me as Emperor Zongyuan!

Next to him, Ying Yi and An Yi lowered their heads, feeling the cold air and not daring to say another word.

······

Outside the imperial study hall.

At this moment, Li Yue, Eunuch Li, and Duan Lei were standing in front of the palace gate. There were still many royal guards stationed there.

Li Yue turned his head to look at the closed palace door from time to time, and he was filled with doubts... This was the first time for the emperor to summon so many secret guards into the palace.

Duan Lei also had a solemn look on his face, with doubts... The emperor's secret guards have always been in charge of Black Eagle. Everything in the royal study is also the responsibility of the secret guards.

These were never something he could control.

But what happened today? The emperor summoned so many secret guards into the palace and asked him to stay outside!

However, at this moment, in a hidden spot in the distance, Han Yeting stared closely at the imperial study, with deep thought in his eyes...

Mo Yi said that in the evening, Emperor Mingxi summoned the secret guards from his private residence into the palace. Looking at the formation in the imperial study, all those secret guards should be in the secret palace.

How can we go in and take a look? Duan Lei and Li Yue can still go in in disguise. Now that they are both here, it may be difficult.

In front of the palace gate, Li Yue looked up at the sky and summoned the young eunuch beside him.

He ordered: "Go to the harem and inform all the empresses that the emperor is busy with government affairs tonight and will not go to the harem. So that you don't have to wait."

"Yes, Eunuch Li." The young eunuch bowed in reply, turned and left.

After a while, Duan Lei asked: "Eunuch Li, do you think the emperor will be busy until late tonight?"

Li Yue nodded and said, "You should be able to do it. Commander Duan, thank you for your hard work."

Duan Lei replied: "Eunuch Li, you're welcome. This is my duty."

Duan Lei pondered for a moment and asked again: "Eunuch Li, do you know what happened today?"

Li Yue shook his head and said, "I don't know. But it's true that the emperor is in a bad mood. We all need to be careful."

Duan Lei nodded in response: "Yes, thank you Eunuch Li, I understand."

The Hanye Court in the distance is already clear, and I'm afraid I won't be able to enter it tonight.

After a long time, Han Yeting quietly turned around and left.
