C384 It Was True That the Son of the Shun Had Returned to the Village to Hide the Truth from the Wor
"What do you mean? Big Brother, you're saying that even the Emperor doesn't know? Then who would have the guts to dig a secret passage here! "
" Hmph! It must be Yang Yunxuan. I did not expect him to leave such a path of escape for the Emperor. What a miscalculation. " Nie Xiong's teeth were itching with hatred.
"Let's run then. After all, our plan has succeeded. Now that the world belongs to us, he won't be able to find anything useful. What should we do with him?" Xie Tianan glanced at Shunzi who was crawling under the table.
"Hehe, I actually forgot about our Chief Steward Wang. Come out, Chief Steward. " After Xie Tianan's reminder, he remembered that there was another person here.
"Haha, Lord Nie is too polite. You can just call me Shunzi. I don't deserve to be called Steward. " Shunzi chuckled as he crawled out from under the table.
"Tell me, what kind of death do you want?"
"Master Nie, you can't kill me. "
"Why?"
"I'm willing to surrender to Lord Nie. You, keeping me will only bring you benefits and no harm. "
"Oh! Then why don't you tell me what benefits are there?"
"I think Sir Nie has already arranged for the Fourth Master to change into the Emperor's appearance to temporarily replace the Emperor. But the Fourth Master has all kinds of actions and habits regarding the Emperor's clothing, clothing, and living habits. Not knowing anything, it is very easy to give himself away. And I am most familiar with it. With my help, I'll be able to hide it from the world. "
"Hmm, you're right about that. Do you have more?"
"Of course, this time so many people died in the Imperial Palace. The most perfect explanation is that the Emperor was assassinated, but it was just a matter of being safe and sound. Noble Consort Wan was unfortunately killed in order to protect the Emperor. But if even I am dead, the Emperor would be the only one left who would arouse suspicion. "
"Haha, indeed worthy of being the person beside the Emperor. Your brain is turning fast. You can live now. But Steward Wang, I am warning you. If you pledge your allegiance to me, then pledge your allegiance to me properly. Don't give me any other thoughts that you shouldn't have. Otherwise, I will make you wish you were dead. "
Shunzi had said these two things in Nie Xiong's heart. Indeed, he had a headache over these two things. Now that he had Shunzi, it seemed like everything could be solved easily. However, he couldn't completely trust him. After all, Shunzi had grown up with the Emperor and was a trusted aide of the Emperor.
At this moment, Zhao Yongjun and Wang Yu jumped up angrily from the secret passage and came to Nie Xiong's side.
"What's wrong? They ran away?" Looking at their expressions, it was obvious that they hadn't caught them.
"That's right, big brother. They ran away. There are many forks in the passage. I don't know where they've turned to. "
"We missed a move, but they still let him run away. Second brother, go back to the mansion now and arrange for people to seal off the entire Shuntian Prefecture. Third brother. . . You go with your Second Brother. When you leave the palace, take your Second Brother's Soldier Talisman outside the city. Tell the garrison outside that if dawn doesn't receive the order to retreat at ten o'clock, Then immediately attack Shuntian Prefecture. Eunuch Wang, you are so familiar with the Emperor. Imitating the Emperor's next order shouldn't be a problem, right? Write down an order to all the officers in Shuntian Prefecture to assist my Second Brother in investigating all suspicious people in Shuntian Prefecture. " As he spoke, Nie Xiong gave Wang Yu a look. He gestured for Wang Yu to bring the table over.
Wang Yu nodded and walked to the front of the manor. He put his foot into the table and lifted it with force. The table spun and flew up, then it accurately landed in front of Shunzi.
"Yes, Sir Nie. " Shunzi picked up the pen from the ground and wrote an order for Zhao Yongjun.
"Then let's go, big brother. " After saying that, they took the imperial edict and left.
"Alright, now the good show has begun. From now on, Wang Yu, you are the Emperor. You must not give yourself away. "
In a short while, everyone outside had successfully disguised themselves and changed into Royal Guards's appearance. Maimed Cloud walked in with a smile.
"Congratulations to the few of you for the success of the Master. I'll leave the rest to you all. It's time for me to leave as well. "
"Hehe, thank you for your help, Sinkhole. Then we won't be sending you off. Thank you for your hard work tonight. However, I still have a presumptuous request. I wonder if you can agree to it. "
"Hehe, you want me to play an act of failing an assassination attempt and escaping in a panic, right?"
"Hahaha, I'll hide everything from you. But you, not bad. If you don't bother the second master, then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Crippled Cloud. "
"Fine, I'm leaving anyway. Then I'll help you guys again. Then I'll leave. " With that, he took out a piece of black cloth and covered his face with it. Then he picked up a knife from the ground and jumped out lightly with his feet. After a few leaps, he had already flown quite a distance away. This also alarmed the other guards in the Imperial Palace. The sound of an assassin being caught echoed in the Imperial Palace for a long time.
"Eunuch Wang, it's all up to you now. I will go hide at the back. You must immediately order Royal Guards's men to search the entire Imperial Palace. Anyone who looks like the Emperor must be captured and brought here as soon as possible. "
"No problem. Watch me. " Shunzi patted his chest and said. Nie Xiong nodded and turned to hide in the dark.
After a while, Royal Guards rushed in. Princess Jinyu followed behind him. He hurriedly walked in and saw the dead people on the ground, including Wan.
"What is going on? Royal Brother, are you alright? Did you get hurt? " Princess Jinyu was about to step forward, but Wang Yu was afraid that she would see through him. He quickly raised his hand to signal her to stay away.
"Royal Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Princess, the Emperor only received a little shock and will be fine after resting. Luckily Noble Consort Wan had sworn to protect the Emperor so that the Emperor can be safe and sound. "
"It is good that you are fine. You scared me to death. When I heard that there was an assassin, I immediately ran over. What about the assassin? "
" That assassin has just escaped. He must be someone from the pugilistic world. "
"You guys stay here and protect the Emperor. Do not let anything happen to him. The rest of you, search the Imperial Palace immediately. Arrest anyone who can. "
"It's the Princess. " After saying that, the group of Royal Guards bowed and left.
"Princess, it's getting late. There was nothing else to worry about. Princess, you should go back earlier to rest. Let the Emperor stay here quietly and calm down. " Seeing that the princess had no intention of leaving, Shunzi quickly cupped his hands and said.
"Alright, but once there is a result, you must tell me immediately. Then I will leave. " After considering for a while, the princess turned around and left.
"Eunuch Wang did well. He even hid the princess from me. Very well, I didn't let you live for nothing. In the future, you still have to work hard. When we truly change dynasties, you will be the greatest contributor. At that time, you won't be without your benefits. "
"Haha, thank you, Lord Nie. " Shunzi respectfully cupped his hands and said with a smile.
Furthermore, the Emperor, Xiaolin pulled him to a stone room and sat down to rest for a while.
