Zhou Yunli's first reaction was that there was a secret room protected by numerous formations in the inn.
The Changping Guard is one of the eight guards in the capital. It was originally built according to military fortresses. Many yamen in the city have such secret rooms for emergency use, and even teleportation formations are arranged in some key places.
Zhou Yunli immediately led everyone into the secret room, and then because he was afraid of death for a while, he just asked his subordinates to inform His Highness Mian and Princess Baishui to come in for refuge.
However, these two subordinates were killed by Zhen Zhanqiu on the road. Dao Wuya's key protection was His Highness, Princess Baishui and Chen Zhining. He didn't care about the lives of the others. With Zhen Zhanqiu's strength, he fired a blow, and those "insignificant" people were just swept into pieces by the aftermath.
Now, the two high men are unaware of their lives and death, but the secretary of Zhou Yunli is alive. If he pursues him in the future, he will never escape death. He now says that he will take the lead, but in fact he will die in the end.
Although Zhou Yunli committed a serious crime, he saved everyone's lives, so everyone is grateful.
Chen Zhining even walked up and held his hands hard and promised: "Mr. Zhou, I will never thank you for your kindness. If you have any needs in the future, I will send someone to bring you a word, and Chen Zhining will never refuse!"
Zhou Yunli forced a smile and nodded to everyone: "Everyone, let's go."
He hurried away, not only himself, but also had to arrange his family, and it was extremely difficult to escape.
Miao Youding looked at the ruins around him and said in his heart that if he was exposed to Zhen Zhanqiu's attack like others, I'm afraid that none of the people present would survive.
"Everyone... search for the inn and try to treat the injured."
Everyone nodded and scattered their own scattering. The entire inn was vast, and there were only a dozen people who survived. Each of them had to search for a large area and could only act on their own.
Chen Zhining endured the pain on his body and quietly took a congenital spiritual peach. This congenital spiritual peach cultivated by this healing pill has already been in stock.
He waited for everyone to separate before looking for an opportunity to secretly hand over the four innate spiritual peaches to his parents and two maids. As for the others, of course, they still couldn't reach this level of trust.
Then, as soon as he searched, there were corpses all over the broken roof tiles, collapsed walls, and broken beams.
Under the attack of a powerful man in the Heaven Realm, if he can end up with a complete corpse, he will have a "good end", let alone hope to survive.
Chen Zhining saw dozens of broken corpses one after another, almost numb. Suddenly, he turned half of the wall and pressed a corpse underneath. Although it was a little bloody, he could tell from his clothes that it was Princess Baishui.
He sighed softly, even if he had unparalleled power, what could he do? What could his royal relatives? Under such direct, absolute, and horizontal pressure, he was just a fragile life.
He shook his head slightly, and he couldn't say much about Princess Baishui. Not to mention how her prince-consort died, with her personality, she should have done a lot of things to oppress good things.
What's more, she kept pestering herself.
He was a little sad, just because he was also powerless under the power of a powerful man in the Heavenly Realm. This feeling was almost like "the death of a rabbit and the sadness of a fox".
He glanced at the corpse again, turned around and searched somewhere else, and suddenly kicked something on his toes.
It was an jade bracelet, green and transparent, exquisite and beautiful. Chen Zhining could tell at a glance that it was a magic weapon for space. He glanced at Princess Baishui's wrist and saw that there was another bracelet.
There was no sign of a bracelet on Princess Baishui's other hand.
He thought for a while, quietly put away the bracelet, and looked around, there was no one around.
Then he continued to search and found the bodies of the eight maids of Princess Baishui around, and found a storage ring from one of the maids.
After a whole hour, the various yamen in Changping Guard had recovered a little of their functions. Surviving cultivation soldiers entered the city to prevent riots after the war. At the same time, they also helped to treat the wounded and search for survivors.
A day later, rescue workers from nearby cities arrived.
At the same time, the entire Taiyan Dynasty was shocked! The powerful people from other countries actually lurked quietly among the eight guards of the capital, which was almost right away!
They have posed a huge threat to the emperor's safety.
Two important royal members were killed. This is not the kind of county prince and county prince who don’t know how many generations of relatives they are separated from the emperor. One of them is the emperor’s closest younger brother and the other is the emperor’s most beloved daughter!
The emperor was furious and the whole court was quarreled. He angrily scolded the enemy country and blamed each other for their political enemies. It was their mistakes that caused this tragedy.
A political storm is about to take shape.
In the Changping Guard, the court sent a powerful man in the Tianliu Guard to take charge, and at the same time sent the Qilin Guard among the Tianshi Guard. Qianhu, a Qilin Guard, and a thousand subordinates, protected the entire Changping Guard.
In addition to this kind of thing, Chen Zhining's entry into the capital was temporarily delayed. The court had to assign the Tailong Guard, one of the four major revisionists, to comprehensively investigate the Changping Guard incident.
Before the truth was found out, everyone in Changping Guard was suspected, and of course they could not be allowed to go to Beijing to get the safety of Emperor Weihai.
The Tailong Guard's formation was even bigger than that of the Qilin Guard. Their commander Shangguan Jinghong personally led the team, and the four thousand households arrived at three, which made the Qilin Guard very depressed.
What they do is a guard errand, and if they do it well, they will at most be innocent. If they don’t do it well, they will be guilty. Anyway, they will not make any great contribution.
However, investigating the case is an errand that can make great contributions and is stolen by Tailong Guard.
A thousand households of Tailong Guard asked Chen Zhining several times, and he was quite polite. Even though it was a comprehensive investigation, Tailong Guard would not be so stupid that he thought Chen Zhining was a spy, because the two powerful people in the enemy country's heavenly realm were obviously coming to Chen Zhining.
When he was not questioned, Chen Zhining felt at ease in his room and silently refined his Taoist formation.
Princess Baishui's bracelet and maid's storage ring indeed store a large amount of high-level materials! He guessed it right. The bracelet contained the gifts I received recently, including the one from Zhou Yunli.
These gifts have not been carefully examined and are classified separately, so they are all stored in bracelets. I think they are going to be organized after returning to Beijing.
The maid's storage ring space is surprisingly large, storing a large amount of medium and low-level materials and tens of thousands of third-level spiritual jades!
The maid was obviously the princess's confidant, and the property belonged to Princess Baishui, and she just asked her to help take care of it.
Two storage magic weapons, coupled with the materials Chen Zhining had purchased before, actually brought together all the Taoist array materials that Chen Zhining needed.
Chen Zhining couldn't help but sigh secretly that the royal family was indeed rich. In the bracelet that Princess Baishui carried, there were many precious treasures stored, but he didn't dare to take them for himself at that time.
In the royal family, as well as those close to the princess, they must know that Princess Baishui's bracelet, and if it disappears, it will definitely arouse suspicion.
It took him a full twenty days to arrange the entire Taoist formation! This is because the Taoist formation has high level and almost every link has reached the limit of his ability.
It took twenty-five days to refine the Taoist soldiers! The iron-smelting apes were unruly and had a high level. Chen Zhining began to fail constantly, but fortunately, he gradually found the trick.
A month and a half later, his second Taoist formation was completed. After Chen Zhining escaped from the powerful man in the Heaven Realm, he felt for the first time that his safety was guaranteed.
And this confidence comes from this Taoist formation, which he named the Taoist formation "Song of Everlasting Sorrow".
...
Capital, imperial city.
Deep in the inner palace, there was a graceful middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe and hurriedly walked into a golden palace under the guidance of an old eunuch.
"Emperor Brother!" The middle-aged man bowed to the emperor in the hall. The emperor of the Taiyan Dynasty looked older than his actual age, but because of his years of practice, he was extremely imposing and had a special kingly demeanor in every move.
"Your brother doesn't have to be too polite. You said that there was a major situation in the case of the Sixth brother. What exactly did you find that it made you so panic?" The emperor asked slowly.
The middle-aged man was the emperor's seventh brother, and he was also quite trusted and was named King Zheng.
King Mian and Princess Baishui were killed in Changpingwei, and the investigation was mainly handed over to Tailongwei, but everything that concerns the royal family was under the responsibility of King Zheng. There are many secrets in the royal family that cannot be known to outsiders. King Zheng said panickedly: "Brother, how can you not panic? The "Yuan Dao Ruler" in charge of the Sixth Emperor is missing!"
The emperor stood up suddenly: "What did you say!?"
Zheng Wang said: "After I discovered this, I immediately asked someone to go to the Ministry of War..."
An old eunuch hurried in: "Report to Your Majesty, Minister of War, Lord Liu, urgently asked for a meeting!"
The emperor and King Zheng's faces changed together: "Let him come in immediately."
The Minister of War hurried in, knelt down on the ground with a thud, and kowtowed heavily: "The old minister deserves to die!"
The emperor's face turned pale and he slowly sat back: "Liu Qing, is it a step late to say so?"
"Yes..." Liu Shangshu hesitated for a moment, and said he still heavy, and then he knocked down again, making a loud noise.
King Zheng was completely panicked: "Mr. Liu, what are the remedies now? Is it still time to change the tiger talisman and formation?" Liu Shangshu said bitterly: "My Taiyan Dynasty has a vast territory, and the border with the Huanghong Kingdom is thousands of miles long. There are dozens of important passes, various passes and countless mountain streams. How can we come?"
"Before the old minister came, they had already asked them to order fortresses in the world in the name of the Ministry of War to temporarily invalidate the tiger talisman in the past, and at the same time, all teleportation formations in the fortress were closed to prevent the enemy from sneak attacking!"
"Abstain from all military operations before receiving a new imperial edict and keep the troops as still as possible."
"I just don't know if this arrangement can be done."
(The protagonist's Taoist formation, the Song of Everlasting Sorrow, is a temporary name. I don't like it very much, but I can't think of anything else for a while. It's a flaw if you have any good ideas. Please tell me in the book review and we will choose a good one to replace it.) (To be continued.)
