Xue Yun lowered his head sadly and remained silent for a while.
In the situation just now, the only people left with the ability to fight back were him and the old regent.
Although Thomas and Jenny have weird abilities, as long as Xue Yun is willing to take action and cooperates with Xuanyuan Zhong's strong combat power, they may not be unable to keep each other.
Available at critical moments.
However, Xue Yun chose to watch with cold eyes and stayed by the side of the dizzy Wang Defa, without even thinking about intervening in this matter.
As for the reason.
Perhaps it was because he didn't have the slightest fondness for Xuanyuan Longcheng.
It is also very possible that Xue Yun instinctively believed that without the unstable factor of the Emperor of Daxia, Longdu, which was hundreds of kilometers away, would become safer.
"Uncle Zhong."
Take a deep breath.
Xue Yun clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Xuanyuan Longcheng tried his best to get rid of you, don't you know at all..."
There was a pause.
Xue Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Why should we protect such an emperor? Maybe this country would be better without him, maybe..."
"That's enough, don't say any more!"
Swinging his arms violently.
A scorching gust of wind hit him, interrupting Xue Yun who was about to speak.
"You brat...you are so confused!"
Secretly gritting his teeth.
The white hair on his temples was swaying in the wind. Xuanyuan Zhong looked helpless. He raised his head and sighed: "Do you think that without him, Xuanyuan Longcheng, the people of this country will live more freely and equally?"
"It's so childish!"
A shrill gust of wind swept across the slightly depressed square in the dark night.
More and more people woke up from their dizziness, shaking their heads and looking around blankly.
"The so-called freedom is always relative..."
Look into the deep night sky.
Xuanyuan Zhong said sincerely: "Without order, freedom will become the breeding ground for evil, rituals and music will collapse, morals will be corrupted, and heroes from all walks of life will rise up for selfish desires. At that time, the world will be in chaos!"
"The heroes are competing for the throne, and the war is raging..."
He pondered for a moment.
The old prince said sadly: "Living in such a chaotic country, how can there be any freedom and fairness? As for the ordinary people, they will probably live even worse than they do now!"
Startled suddenly.
Xue Yun stood there, looking dazed and stunned.
When the moon is full and full of profit and loss, things will turn upside down.
The Xuanyuan royal family rules Daxia and is a huge mountain that presses down on everyone.
While restricting the freedom of the people of this country, they are also a sharp sword that suppresses all forces.
Once the royal family loses power, the entire Daxia Empire will fall into chaos.
"Uh...Boss Xue, I think what the old man said makes some sense."
Wang Defa, who was completely weak, stuck out his tongue, looked at Xue Yun and smiled bitterly: "Let's not talk about anything else for now. Without the restraint of the royal family, Shenju City on the grassland will definitely be the first to rise up and rebel.
I’m afraid the herdsmen will be in dire straits..."
Frowning tightly.
Only now did Xue Yun realize the seriousness of the matter. The Emperor of Daxia was kidnapped in Hudu. Once the news spread, the princes in the major fortress cities would be ready to take action.
There are also other forces close to the border of the Daxia Empire who will also be itching and unbearable.
A behemoth such as the Principality of Isa might take advantage of the chaos to raid the border and wait for an opportunity to annex the territory of Daxia.
"Now, what should we do?" the bald man asked with a confused face.
"Seal the city gate..."
Narrowing his eyes slightly.
Xuanyuan Zhong stood in the wind, turned to look at the crumbling auditorium behind him, and said solemnly: "Everyone present today must be controlled. The news that His Majesty was kidnapped must not be leaked. Notify the city defense department that all people leaving the city must be controlled."
All personnel will be strictly inspected, and all the original guards on the three towers will be replaced, with envoys from the Forbidden Palace taking their place!"
A series of instructions were immediately issued.
Without Xuanyuan Longcheng, the regent Xuanyuan Zhong immediately became one of the most powerful people in the entire imperial city.
None of the Forbidden Palace envoys dared to disobey and immediately dispersed to start arranging related matters.
"What on earth are these things?"
Raised an eyebrow.
Wang Defa twisted up a broken piece that looked like gelatin with an expression of disgust.
These things are the body remains left behind by the band member who just blew himself up.
Although the surface is still inexplicably moist, the inside is embedded with residual traces similar to mechanical tissue.
"It looks like skin on the surface..."
Squat down.
Xue Yun frowned, reached out and touched the remaining body tissue on the ruins, and said solemnly: "It is obviously fundamentally different from human body tissue. It seems that it needs professionals to identify it."
"Let me handle the rest of the matter for now..."
Turning to look at Xue Yun and the bald man.
Xuanyuan Zhong still looked unhappy and said with a solemn expression.
"You and others can temporarily live in the palace villa. You are not allowed to leave the room at will without my order!"
"ah?!"
Wang Defa's face was full of surprise and he was dumbfounded and said: "That's not the case. Are we going to be imprisoned too?!"
"Is there a problem?"
Xuanyuan Zhong raised his chin and said noncommittally: "I seem to have said just now that everyone present, regardless of their status, must be strictly monitored..."
"Of course you are included in this!"
Hear the words.
Wang Defa also wanted to stand up and argue, but was stopped by Xue Yun behind him.
He shook his head silently.
Without saying anything more, he just used his eyes to stop the bald man who wanted to get angry. Xue Yun turned to look at Xuanyuan Zhong and said with a calm expression: "Uncle Zhong, we can just listen to your arrangement."
The situation is urgent.
Anyway, they won't stay in Hudu for too long. Living in the palace and taking care of food and drink is quite worry-free.
What's more important.
The Emperor of Daxia was captured in the city, and the entire Tiger City would definitely become a place of right and wrong, full of unknown dangers everywhere.
This time.
The palace located on the top of the dome is actually the safest place.
He sighed secretly.
Xuanyuan Zhong did not make any unnecessary response. Instead, he looked at Shen Tuchuan, who was seriously injured on Wang Defa's shoulder. He turned his back and said softly: "I will leave this guy to you to take care of him. I have found a job for you two."
My son, even if it’s just a distraction, you won’t have to cause trouble in the palace all day long.”
His forehead was instantly covered with black lines, and the corner of Xue Yun's mouth twitched.
He originally wanted to refuse, but he saw that Wang Defa had already picked up Shen Tuchuan, but he quickly swallowed the words as he spoke.
I'll fuck your brother-in-law!
How come I have become a servant serving others? There is really no one left...
