The secret guards were impatient for a long time. They waited for their master to speak and immediately rushed forward with their swords in hand. On the other side, the guards of the fourth prince and the killers he had trained privately also came forward.
Nearly a thousand hidden guards were dispatched. The hundred men brought by the fourth prince were simply not enough to cope with the situation, and the situation was reversed in an instant.
Qingwan didn't watch the confrontation between those people, but just looked at the men beside her. Ji Lanjin did this, which was tantamount to exposing all his hidden power to the public. He was challenging the royal family head-on, couldn't he?
Are you worried that the emperor will take this opportunity to eradicate him and the forces behind him?
Sensing her gaze, Ji Lanjin turned around slowly, and just as she was about to speak, she heard Qin Zun walking up to him and saying, "Master, the fourth prince has been captured, please forgive me."
Ji Lanjin withdrew his gaze and looked straight ahead. In the center of the crowd, he saw Ji Liuzhang and Qin Shuiyue being held up by dozens of dazzling silver swords. There were corpses on the ground beside them, brought by Ji Liuzhang.
Those people were basically dead and injured.
Seeing such a scene for the first time, Qing Wan felt her stomach churning, and she tried to hold back not to vomit it out. Behind her, the two girls had already turned pale with fright, and even Yue Yingli, although she looked still
Calm, but if you look carefully, you can still feel his nervousness and his face is slightly pale.
Ji Lanjin glanced in the direction of the fourth prince, and then ordered in a low voice: "Take the fourth prince down, find a secret place and send someone to guard him closely, and dispose of these corpses as soon as possible, don't leave any
trace."
"Yes." Qin Zun responded and went to make arrangements.
Ji Lanjin then turned around and looked at Qingwan again. Seeing that her face was not well, he couldn't help but hold her hand tightly and said slowly: "Come back to Yuncheng with me first!"
Qingwan nodded without thinking too much. This man had arrested the fourth prince. Although he was not sure whether the news would spread, but if the emperor found out and blamed him, the entire palace would suffer. It would definitely be a good time to return to the capital at this time.
If it's not safe, it's safer to follow the other person.
Qing Wan held the little guy in one hand and was held by Ji Lanjin in the other. When she was about to get on the carriage, she remembered a question. Since Xiao Diao was here, that guy Lan Ge should be nearby, right?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but stop and look around. Except for the secret guards who were handling the corpses, the surroundings were empty, but I didn't find a single person.
"What's wrong?" Ji Lanjin noticed something strange about her and couldn't help but stop and look around.
Qing Wan withdrew her gaze, shook her head and said: "It's nothing, the smell of blood here is too strong, I feel a little uncomfortable, let's go quickly!"
Ji Lanjin didn't ask any questions and helped her get into the carriage. After they both sat firmly, Qingwan asked uneasily: "You arrested the fourth prince in public, aren't you afraid that the emperor will blame you?
"
Ji Lanjin's voice was soft and her eyes were soft: "Don't worry, there are people within ten miles of this town. Without my permission, this news cannot spread at all. What's more, everyone thinks that the fourth prince is in the palace.
, there is no way to explain to everyone when he appears in Yuncheng at this time. Even if the emperor knows that all this is done by me, he cannot use this reason to punish me. Furthermore, the emperor may not have the extra energy to deal with it now.
