Originally, the power of the Xiao family had reached its peak after the mutiny, but now Xiao Yunxi listens to politics from behind the curtain. From a certain perspective, the emperor's rights have been completely eclipsed.

The Empress Dowager of the East Palace directly manages the country's political affairs directly at the court, and has surpassed the power of others.

Bianliang's expression changed when he heard that the Xiao family had talked. After all, Xiao Yunqi dared to kill even members of the royal family, so who would dare to go against him.

But at this time, loyal people are indispensable.

After the morning court, Xiao Yunqi took a car and drove back to Xiao Mansion. Before he left the palace, people from the Infantry Department and the Imperial City Department cleared the road, and the Dragon Guards who had been established for a few days were standing guard around him.

On both sides of the road, there were many people watching.

Because the grandeur of this trip was even grander than that of the emperor.

Because there were too many people in Bianliang, and they were just returning home, there was no need to make such a big move to clear the place. Chen Mo led the Fire Qilin Army with weapons to guard beside Xiao Yunqi's carriage. Except for those who knew the basics, no suspicious people were allowed.

People enter.

For Chen Mo, it was just this pomp and circumstance.

No one is so bold as to assassinate Xiao Yunqi.

Because it is impossible to succeed.

Xiao Yunqi had many experts around him, and he also had a large army at his disposal. The entire Bianliang was under his control, and those who came to assassinate him were simply seeking death.

Xiao Yunqi arrived at Xiao Mansion smoothly.

But just now.

"Report, Chief Secretary, Mr. Duan Shi was assassinated in the market."

"Report, sir, an assassin has sneaked into the house."

""

In succession, spies from the Imperial City Department and guards from the Chen Mansion came over to report.

Quan Yang frowned.

Chen Mo's expression changed, he mentioned the guard of Chen Mansion and said, "How is Yaoyao?"

"Madam is fine," the guard said.

"Anyang Gong" Chen Mo bowed his hands towards Xiao Yunqi and said, "If I don't have any important orders, I will leave first."

There was an assassin sneaking into the house, and no one could stand still. Xiao Yunqi understood and waved his hand.

"My subordinates resign." Chen Mo respectfully left.

After Chen Mo left, Xiao Yunqi's face darkened: "It seems that after hearing about the alliance between the eighteen princes, some people in the court couldn't bear it and wanted to submit a petition."

"Yao Yao, are you okay? Where is the assassin?"

After Chen Mo returned to Chen Mansion, he hurried to the backyard.

I saw that the backyard was surrounded by guards. Gao Zheng, who dared to come with his troops from behind, surrounded the entire backyard to protect Yi Yao and the others from other assassins.

Yi Yao, Chun Lan and other girls gathered together, with panic on their faces. When they heard Chen Mo's voice, they immediately came to Chen Mo under the protection of Gao Zheng and others.

Yi Yao threw herself directly into Chen Mo's arms and said, "Master, are you okay?"

Chen Mo shook his head: "What about you? What happened?"

"Chunlan and I were discussing making a robe for you, Master. When we were about to go to the warehouse to select fabrics, the assassin jumped behind us from the roof. Chunlan was injured by the assassin. The assassin was stronger than me.

"Okay, fortunately Xiaojiu took action at the critical moment, otherwise"

Yi Yao was a little scared.

After all, the moment Chunlan was injured by the assassin, Yi Yao had already felt the breath of death.

As soon as Yi Yao finished speaking, Xiaojiu, the spirit fox in the crowd, suddenly jumped out and came to Chen Mo's feet. He howled twice and kept gesticulating with his claws, telling how he killed him at this moment.

.

This is asking for credit from Chen Mo.

"Thanks to you, I will cook for you in person tonight." Chen Mo bent down and touched Xiaojiu's head. The latter enjoyed Chen Mo's touch.

Chen Mo immediately looked at Chunlan: "Where are you injured? Are you okay?"

"Fortunately, when the assassin jumped down, my wife pushed me and only hurt my hand. Otherwise..." Chunlan raised her bandaged right arm with some fear.

After all, she was just a teenage girl. How could she not be afraid of death as it approached.

The assassin's blade was extremely fast, and with just one stroke on her right arm, a gash nearly two centimeters deep and ten centimeters long appeared on her right arm.

Chen Mo glanced at Gao Zheng.

Gao Zheng pointed at the white fox and said: "The assassin's throat was slashed by it with its claws. One hit will kill him. There is a wax pill under the tongue of the assassin, which is highly poisonous. He should be a professionally trained death warrior. Once

If I can’t escape, I will immediately swallow the wax pill under my tongue.”

Gao Zheng showed the wax pills he found from the assassin's mouth to Chen Mo.

"What can be found?" Chen Mo looked at the wax pills, his face a little gloomy.

If you dare to attack your own woman, if I find out who instigated it, I will crush you to ashes.

Gao Zheng shook his head: "The martial arts exam is approaching. Many martial arts masters have poured into Bianliang in the past two days. The flow of people is intensive, and the relationship behind it is complicated. Now that the assassin is dead, it will be difficult to find out."

"I know, you go down first."

"promise."

"Wait a minute." Chen Mo stopped Gao Zheng again, and then said, "Deploy another battalion from the Infantry Division."

Bianliang is not at peace either. Today's incident has also reminded Chen Mo that the defense of the Chen Mansion is still inadequate and must be strengthened.

"promise."

After changing into Chen Mo's identity and checking the ripples, Chen Mo started the simulation.

He hasn't simulated for the past two days.

After all, he had to spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for one simulation.

And his martial arts realm and artistic conception have reached their peak, making him feel that there is no need to imitate.

【Do you want to enable the simulation of cultivating immortals? 】

"yes."

[Day 61 of the Great Turmoil: An assassin infiltrated your house and attempted to assassinate your relatives. He was stopped by the Qingqiu Spirit Fox. After you found out, you were very angry and wanted to investigate who was instigating the assassination. ]

[Day 62: Due to the assassination of several court officials yesterday, all of whom were promoted by Xiao Yunqi, Xiao Yunqi was furious and ordered the Imperial City Department to find out who was behind it as soon as possible. You also sent a large number of manpower to investigate. ]

[Day 65: The martial arts exam begins. You take part in the martial arts exam as Chen Mo, win the first place with absolute strength, and become famous in Bianliang.

After several days of searches, we still found very little about the person behind the assassination in the past few days. We only found out that he had some connection with the royal family.]

[Day 66: A bloody edict flowed out from the palace. The bloody edict listed the crimes of Xiao Yunqi and his accomplices, and even told about your night stay in the phoenix bed and his affair with the Empress Dowager of the East Palace.

It also clarified the fact that Zhao Ji was under house arrest and Zhao Chong was under coercion, and told the world that all the kings should go to the capital to serve the king, kill Xiao Yunqi, Chen Hong, Xiao Teng and other rebels, reward them with thousands of gold, and create ten thousand households.

After Xiao Yunqi found out, he knew that if Zhao Ji was left here, there would be disaster, so he ordered you to bring people into the palace to kill the emperor.

You knew that after killing Zhao Ji, you would be the target of public criticism, and you would also attract the hatred of Zhao Fujin, so you pretended to be sick to evade it.】
