The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty had seven days and six dynasties. After attending six dynasties in a row, he could rest for one day, and today was Bai Yutian's turn to rest.
Yesterday, Bai Yutian had another hearty battle with Concubine Yun, but today he got up very early.
After changing clothes and washing up under Yun Qing's service, Bai Yutian went to the side hall and summoned Chen Hong and Cao Shan.
One of them is the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, and the other is the head of the imperial guards. They are both top-notch masters in the Great Zhou Palace.
Although Bai Yutian was weak and incompetent in his previous life, he respected these two masters enough. Therefore, the two of them were very loyal to Bai Yutian and were trustworthy.
Bai Yutian was an emperor before, but he didn't have much power in the court. Especially after moving the capital, he came to the Gu family's territory in Tailin, which made Gu Taizhong intensify his power and dominate the government. Even the emperor could not restrain him.
If it weren't for the loyalty of Chen Hong and Cao Shan, I'm afraid Bai Yutian would have been controlled by Gu Taizhong and completely become a puppet emperor.
The two came to the side hall and saw Bai Yutian and Concubine Yun Gui were already here, and they quickly knelt down to salute.
Concubine Yun Gui was regarded as a confidant by Bai Yutian, and he also brought her here at this moment.
"General Chen, Director Cao, and the assassins who sneaked into the palace to assassinate them, have they been caught?"
I was really afraid that something would come my way. The assassins who sneaked into the palace that day all fled the palace after they arrived.
Although people have been sent to hunt them down with all their strength, and all available forces in Tailin City have been used, the methods of these assassins are very strange, as if they have evaporated from the world, and disappeared directly in Tailin City.
"Your Majesty, not yet. Give me another three days and we will definitely capture the assassin." Chen Hong and Cao Shan knelt down and said.
After all, this matter was their dereliction of duty, and they were very frightened at the moment.
Hearing this, Bai Yutian sighed, he would feel uneasy if the assassin was not eliminated.
"A bunch of losers can't even catch a few assassins." Bai Yutian said angrily.
It was because Bai Yutian's predecessor was frightened to death by an assassin that Bai Yutian had the opportunity to time travel into this body.
After finally reviving his life, he didn't want to worry about his head all the time.
"Your Majesty, checkpoints have been set up at all the gates of Tailin City. Assassins will never be able to escape. I will give you three days to deliver the heads of all the assassins to Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Bai Yutian looked at Chen Hong and Cao Shan, "Are there any clues about the assassin now?"
Chen Hong and Cao Shan looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
There were ten assassins in total, but only one person was caught, and he committed suicide on the spot. The other nine people all escaped. Although nothing was left behind, through the observation of the dead person, it was determined that this group of people might
It's Shanu.
Moreover, their hidden attack methods are very similar to Shanu's secret techniques.
However, apart from this clue, there is no information about the identity and location of the assassins. It is completely impossible to predict the assassins' next actions, let alone an effective hunt. Everything is unknown.
But Bai Yutian doesn't like the unknown. Unless these assassins are eliminated, he will have no peace for a day.
He stood up and paced back and forth in the imperial study, feeling very agitated.
"Your Majesty, the palace is now more tightly guarded than last time. Not to mention assassins, not even a fly will be able to get in." Concubine Yun said to comfort her.
However, this does not eliminate Bai Yutian's annoyance. Now they have no news about these assassins at all. If they want to find these assassins, they must come out on their own.
However, they had just sneaked into the palace to assassinate them. He didn't know when the next operation would be, and he might not be completely sure of taking them down.
Unless, let them come out on their own initiative.
Thinking of this, Bai Yutian's eyes lit up, and he looked at Chen Hong and Cao Shan as if he suddenly thought of something, "General Chen, Director Cao, I want to inspect the military camp today."
Hearing these words, not only Chen Hong and Cao Shan, but also Concubine Yun Gui were shocked.
The sun has really come out in the west these two days. First, they punish the officials in the main hall, and then they have to inspect the military camp. If they remember correctly, the last time Bai Yutian inspected the military camp was when he ascended the throne.
However, out of shock, Chen Hong and Cao Shan still opened their mouths to stop Bai Yutian.
"Your Majesty, the assassin who assassinated Your Majesty the day before yesterday has not been caught yet. There may be another action at any time. I do not want Your Majesty to be involved in danger."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Fenghuo Camp is far away from the palace after all. It is not well-guarded and crowded, making it very unsafe."
Fenghuo Camp is twenty miles away from the imperial palace. Although there are protections along the way, there is no guarantee that assassins will not take advantage of the situation.
"No problem, I went to inspect Fenghuo Camp this time. In addition to seeing the old general Jing Zhao, I also wanted to lure these assassins out." Bai Yutian said confidently.
These words made Chen Hong and Cao Shan stunned.
Logically speaking, if there are assassins outside, shouldn't they hide somewhere safe? Why are they running outside?
Did you lure the assassin out because you were afraid that you were not dangerous enough?
"Chen Hong, Cao Shan, besides the two of you, are there others in the Forbidden Army and Imperial Guards who are relatively strong and absolutely loyal." Bai Yutian suddenly asked.
All the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty had their own personal guards or forces, but Bai Yutian came to the throne when the Great Zhou Dynasty was on the decline. After that, he experienced the chaos of the Five Kingdoms and lost power, and he did not develop his own personal power at all.
Although they were protected by Chen Hong and Cao Shan, they had official positions after all and had to be responsible for managing their subordinates, so they could not stay by Bai Yutian's side all the time.
The assassination the day before yesterday was a good example. Therefore, Bai Yutian felt that he needed to create a force that belonged only to himself, and it must be very powerful.
Before that, Bai Yutian must recruit several loyal and powerful personal bodyguards.
After all, with Gu Taizhong's strength, there should be many Gu Taizhong's spies inside the palace, and Bai Yutian had to guard against them.
"Your Majesty, I have a man named Dian Wei. This man is extremely brave, born with supernatural power, and has superb sword skills, which is admirable. Moreover, Dian Wei's identity is very clean and he is absolutely loyal to the royal family." Cao Shan replied.
"Zhao Chuxue is the youngest female general in the Forbidden Army. She is excellent in all aspects. I recommend this person." Chen Hong also said quickly.
They had a hunch that Bai Yutian might be forming his own force. These two people had very clean financial backgrounds and were strong enough to take on such a big responsibility.
"Very good, call them here and inspect Fenghuo Camp with me." Bai Yutian waved his hand and said.
Immediately, Bai Yutian came up to the two of them again and whispered something, making the two of them nod.
