Chapter 159 What was the secret of Baili back then
Shen Family, Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Prime Minister, Rakshasa sent three masters to hunt down Princess Chaoyang, but they still failed."
Shen Qingzhou threw the chess piece in his hand and sneered. "So many people have not been able to kill Chaoyang. It seems that Rakshasa has really fallen into despair in the past few years."
"Prime Minister, Princess Chaoyang cannot cause trouble in Fengtian. We..." His subordinates were worried and asked Shen Qingzhou if he wanted to help.
At least, nothing happens to Chaoyang before leaving Fengtian.
Otherwise, if a war breaks out at the border, it will be very troublesome.
"How could a daughter trained by a saint from the Western Region die so easily?" Shen Qingzhou said calmly, his eyes wandering. "Besides, the emperor of Dayu will not let anything happen to her."
"Prime Minister, why does the emperor of Dayu have to be Princess Chaoyang?" His subordinates were a little confused.
"Personal emotions aside, Baili's identity represents the three most valuable things in the Western Regions. Even if there is a new saint in Dark Charm Tower in the Western Regions, she will never be able to compete with Baili. Nowadays, all countries know that the former saint
The female Baili is dead, so her only daughter Chaoyang is the target of pursuit by all countries."
Just like Baili back then, because of her arrival, Fengtian enjoyed stability and prosperity in the following decades.
"Therefore, Princess Chaoyang must die..." If she can't be used by herself, she must be eliminated.
Shen Qingzhou raised his head, glanced at his subordinates, and nodded. "He Gu, you are my confidant who I raised with my own hands, and you should be of one mind with me."
His subordinates bowed their heads and knelt respectfully. "Prime Minister, He Gu's life was given by the Prime Minister. He will only be loyal to the Prime Minister in this life."
"Very good." Shen Qingzhou patted He Gu on the shoulder. "Help me keep an eye on Xifeng."
Shen Qingzhou doesn't trust Xifeng.
"Chief of Xifeng?" He Gu looked up in shock.
Xifeng is the leader of all their secret guards and assassins, and also their master.
"Yes." Shen Qingzhou narrowed his eyes.
"Yes!" He Gu quickly lowered his head, a little flustered.
Prime Minister...this means he doesn't trust Xifeng.
Don't trust their master.
But no matter what, they have to obey the Prime Minister's orders, so naturally... they have to obey.
"Prime Minister, the old doctor who retired as the head of the Taiyuan Hospital is dead, but his apprentice is now the head of the Taiyuan Hospital. Moreover, Divine Doctor Xue also knew about what happened back then." He Gu said and retired respectfully.
The head of Taiyuan Hospital... Xue Jinghua.
Shen Qingzhou left the backyard directly and went to the palace.
He wanted to meet the head of the imperial hospital and Xue Jinghua.
Back then, before leaving the palace, Bai Li had any hidden secrets.
…
Jiangnan land, border town.
"Your Majesty, you're awake. General Gu is here. The army has been assembled and ready for war at any time."
"Chaoyang..." Xiao Junze nervously grabbed the collar of his subordinate, where is Chaoyang?
"Princess Chaoyang said that the people at the border are important and should not be neglected. She traveled all night and has already left the land south of the Yangtze River."
Xiao Junze weakly let go of his hand and smiled bitterly.
Chaoyang couldn't wait to leave him...
Can't wait to escape.
Slowly clenching his fingers again, Xiao Junze sat upright with rapid breathing. "Notify General Gu to gather troops and prepare for war."
In half a month, Fengtian's internal affairs were stabilized and the land south of the Yangtze River was used to kill chickens and scare monkeys.
I would like to warn those who are ready to take action everywhere that the royal majesty is inviolable and cannot be challenged.
"Your Majesty, please do it quickly. Doctor Xue said that the poisonous poison in your body has not been completely eliminated. The bone scraping method needs to be done once every half a month, otherwise..." It will be life-threatening.
"Half a month is enough." Xiao Junze stood up and walked out of the camp. "Send the order, the whole army is on alert!"
Start a war with Xiao Chengen's people.
He wanted to resolve the crisis in Jiangnan as soon as possible and stabilize the internal affairs of the court. The next step... was to get rid of the powerful officials in the court and deal with Shen Qingzhou.
Only by holding the power in his own hands can he have enough ability to let Chaoyang return to him obediently.
His eyes darkened for a moment, and Xiao Junze looked into the distance.
He asked Chaoyang to escape as much as possible.
But he won't allow her to really fly away.
In his hand, there is still a kite string that can contain Chaoyang. No matter how far she flies, she will always come back.
"Have you dealt with all the things you were asked to do over in Kyoto?" Xiao Junze lowered his voice and spoke.
"The people have been placed and taken care of, your Majesty, don't worry."
…
Half a month later.
Border pass, thirty-two cities.
Chaoyang, Mu Huaicheng and others disguised themselves as passing businessmen and checked into the inn.
"Princess." Xiu'er called in a low voice, looking around cautiously. "Be careful in everything."
Chaoyang looked around quietly. Her martial arts had recovered 70%, so she could naturally sense that there was something wrong with the people in this inn.
It seems that he is waiting for her here.
Thirty-two cities have always been the most controversial place between Fengtian and Dayu, with constant wars and constant border harassment.
Taking action here will most intensify the conflict between the two countries.
"Brother, on the way here, I saw a small vendor selling candied haws, and I want to eat it." Chaoyang turned back and smiled at Mu Huaicheng.
Mu Huaicheng's figure was a little stiff. Chaoyang... was he acting coquettishly?
During these days together, the Chaoyang he saw was calm and wise, but... he had never been so coquettish.
"Ayan, you go..." Mu Huaicheng wanted his men to buy it.
"Brother, help me buy it." Chaoyang shook his head at Mu Huaicheng, put an object into Mu Huaicheng's hand, leaned over and whispered. "Brother, when we get to the border, help me meet a person and give this to
He and they will come to meet me."
She wanted to let go of Mu Huaicheng.
The matter was so important that Mu Huaicheng didn't think much about it. "Okay!"
…
"You and Juan'er go buy some things for me." Back in the room, Chaoyang put a prescription in Xiu'er's hand. "Be careful."
Although these maids were sent by Xiao Junze to monitor her, they still sacrificed their lives to protect her until now.
Now only Xiu'er and Juan'er are left among the three, and Chaoyang doesn't want to implicate them.
Xiu'er and Juan'er were hesitant. "But Princess, it will be in danger if we leave you."
"Be sure to buy all the medicines on this prescription." Chaoyang shook his head at Xiu'er and motioned for them to leave.
Xiu'er and Juan'er couldn't resist, so they had no choice but to comply.
The door was closed and the room instantly became quiet.
A ticking sound came from the eaves. Because it rained the night before, there was still dew on the roof.
Slowly closing his eyes, Chaoyang listened to the movement around him.
Along the way, not only the Rakshasa people wanted to kill her, but also the people from the Dark Charm House in the Western Region were following her.
Chaoyang doesn't know what they want to do, and so far they haven't shown any murderous intentions. Instead, they often help her kill some killers.
But inexplicably, Chaoyang just feels that Dark Magic Tower is scarier and more difficult to deal with than Rakshasa.
"Since you're here, why don't you come down and kill me? How long do you want to sit down?" Chaoyang asked lightly, looking up at the beams.
"Bang!" A tile fell from the beam, and an awkward figure slid down from it, falling right into Chaoyang's room.
"Are you here to kill me?" Chaoyang frowned, holding the dagger against the man's neck.
"Girl, how did you find me?" The man raised his hands in surrender. He looked ordinary but had a tall figure.
Chaoyang's face darkened, this was not a killer. "What do you want to do?"
"I just saw that there are many of you, so you should be quite rich...don't kill me." The man said in panic, looking like I had done nothing.
