A storm is coming, and the entire Fengtian Imperial City is shrouded in darkness and haze.
The heavy rain poured down, washing the road outside the palace and scattering the dark red blood on the ground.
Jiang Yuyao and Youyou killed all the people in Gujia's old tribe, leaving no one behind.
Standing in the rain, Jiang Yuyao looked at the corpses on the ground and fell into deep thought.
As a human being, no one is willing to kill, and no one is willing to end his life prematurely.
But the positions may be different, and each has its own master.
Everyone is helpless.
They are not doing it for themselves.
"Send a message to Your Majesty that all the remnants of Gujia's old tribe have been eradicated, and Commander Chen's subordinates have also been taken to the Criminal Division for severe torture."
They must uproot all the cancers in Fengtian and Kyoto and eradicate them one by one.
…
In heavy rain, a carriage left Kyoto overnight.
Drive in the direction of Dayu.
"Drive!" the driver sped up.
On the carriage, Xingyi looked at the child in Luoxia's arms and remained silent all the way.
"Master..." Luoxia was a little worried about Chaoyang and knew that something had happened in Kyoto.
"She is safe." Xingyi calculated with his fingers. "But Dayu Imperial City... may not be safe."
Once the people of the Wu clan take action, and multiple countries take action at the same time, they are afraid of spreading information to each other and alerting others.
Dayu Imperial City also hides many people from Gujia's old tribe.
The great elder of the Wu clan always has the ability to confuse people's hearts, and those who are persuaded by him are loyal to Gujia with all their hearts.
But now Xingyi realizes that they are just using the banner of Gujia Dynasty to do evil things.
Everyone is selfish.
"Your Majesty..." Luoxia nervously hugged the child in her arms tightly. She was worried about Yin Cheng's safety.
…
Dayu, the imperial palace.
Outside the city, the men in black quietly knocked down the guards. During the shift change period, the palace informants opened the city gate and poured into the palace.
Feng Huiru’s residence.
"My dear, the little princess always cries. I don't know why."
Nianchen always cries at night, as if he wakes up from a nightmare.
Feng Huiru got up and wanted to see Nian Chen, but suddenly she saw a figure flashing outside the window.
With her heart tightening, Feng Huiru alertly grabbed the maid beside her. "Li Hong, go and inform Commander Xue."
There must be an assassin...
Li Hong glanced out the window and left in a hurry.
But instead of looking for Commander Xue, she found a place to hide.
"Mother, it's late at night, you should..."
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, the door of the palace was kicked open, and a man in black broke in.
Feng Huiru was horrified and ran towards the inner hall in panic.
Nian Chen and the prince are still in the inner hall!
…
Inner Temple.
I can't sleep soundly in the morning and always wake up crying.
"Sister, don't cry, brother is here." The little prince climbed onto the bed cutely and secretly coaxed the little princess.
He secretly ran in after hearing Xiao Nianchen crying.
"Brother..." Nian Chen woke up and stretched out his little hands for a hug.
The prince raised his arms and hugged the little guy, coaxing him in a decent manner. "Nian Chen, be good, my brother will stay with you."
Xiao Nianchen hugged her brother's arms. "Brother..."
"Brother is here."
"Bang!" Suddenly, the window was cut open and a killer rushed in.
Xiao Nianchen was trembling with fright and hid behind the prince brother in fear.
The prince looked at the window warily, guarding Nian Chen behind him. "Who are you?"
When the man saw that he had a child, he knew that he was the prince of Dayu.
His eyes darkened, and he charged at the little prince with his sword.
…
Royal study room.
Yin Cheng was busy dealing with government affairs, and border banditry gave him a headache.
Dayu seemed to have no generals available, so the rabble from Gujia's old tribe went all the way north.
"His Majesty!"
Suddenly, the palace's alarm bell rang.
Someone is attacking the palace!
His face darkened, Yin Cheng raised his hand, picked up the sword, and walked out quickly.
"Your Majesty! Oh no, someone is cooperating with the assassins inside and outside, and they have rushed into the palace!"
Yin Cheng's air pressure was very low, and his eyes made people shudder.
As expected of the Witch Clan, there must be many of his spies in this palace.
Over the years, all countries have been on guard against Anmei Tower, but no one has ever cared about the Wu clan, not even the old Gujia clan.
The elder of the Wu Clan's trick of fishing in troubled waters is really eye-opening.
"Where are the Royal Guards?"
"Your Majesty, the imperial guards are guarding outside the imperial city and are not aware of the attack on the imperial palace."
"Ignite the living conditions of the Star-Zhaing Tower and send a message to the Royal Forest Army!"
Yin Cheng is not worried about what these people will become. What he is most worried about now is Nian Chen and the little prince.
"Your Majesty! Assassins have invaded the imperial concubine's palace... You must not take risks."
Yin Cheng ignored the eunuch's obstruction and broke into the inner courtyard in panic.
"Your Majesty!" Commander Xue came too late and went in with Yin Cheng.
…
Inner Temple.
The little prince looked at the killer who broke in with fear, but he always stood in front of Nian Chen.
"Brother...scared." Nian Chen cried in fear.
"Don't be afraid...brother is here." The little prince guarded Nian Chen nervously.
"Prince, Nian Chen!" Feng Huiru broke in, pushed the killer away at all costs, and held the two children tightly in her arms.
Feng Huiru's eunuch also hugged the killer desperately and was killed by the killer.
"Empress... run away."
Feng Huiru hugged Nian Chen and led the little prince, trying to escape in panic.
But the inner and outer halls are all full of killers.
The fact that these people can break in so brazenly shows that there are people in the palace who are working with them both internally and externally.
"Take my sister and leave, hurry up." Feng Huiru wanted to stop these killers with all her strength and let the prince and Nian Chen go first.
The little prince took his sister's hand and climbed out of the window in panic.
Feng Huiru glanced at the killer outside the door, her eyes red.
As long as the two children can survive.
…
From Fengtian to Yangguan.
When Xiao Junze arrived at Zhiyang Pass, Shen Yunrou and Xingchen were still playing chess.
The chess game went on for four days without a winner.
"Winning or losing in the end depends on God's will." Xingchen smiled. "Madam, you are tired too. It's time to rest."
Shen Yunrou was silent and watched the chess game for a long time before speaking. "Is there any news from Longju?"
Jing Li walked out of the tent and hugged Shen Yunrou from behind. "Don't worry...no news is the best news."
"General, someone wants to see you."
Outside the camp, his subordinates spoke nervously.
It's Xiao Junze here.
Obviously, no one in the army expected that the emperor would suddenly appear at Zhiyang Pass.
No one dares to be careless.
Jing Li walked out of the camp cautiously and followed his men into the coach's camp.
"Your Majesty?" Jing Li could recognize Xiao Junze just from his silhouette.
Xiao Junze took off his hooded hat and smiled at Jing Li. "Long time no see."
"Your Majesty! Why did you suddenly..." come to the border?
Jing Li was a little nervous, worried that Xiao Junze did it because he didn't trust him...
"The soldiers' pay was stolen in the border town. I stopped by to see you." Xiao Junze told Jing Li not to be nervous.
Jing Li breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Majesty, is there any resolution regarding military pay?"
Xiao Junze shook his head and looked around. "Are there any people from the Witch Clan here?"
Jing Li nodded and spoke in a low voice, "He is a young man."
