It was late at night, and the farce of Wang Xu's minions had come to an end. After being noisy for a long time, they finally dispersed.
No one noticed that on this night, the world, time and space seemed to have predicted that an unusual moment was coming, and there was a restless spiritual fluctuation in the air that suppressed everyone's soul...
The guards of the Forbidden City are not fools, they are just a little late-minded. If a small-scale chaos occurs at one of the four gates, it may be just an ordinary event. For two gates, it is a coincidence. However, the four gates,
Chaos occurred on the same night, at almost the same time, and there was only one explanation - conspiracy.
Even if it is an afterthought, as the Royal Guards, their temporary response can still cope with any situation, and they are quick and thoughtful. Although it seems that there is no vicious incident similar to the assassination of royal members, but what they have to do is to deal with this kind of situation.
The situation is nipped in the bud.
The commander of the Forbidden Army made an accurate judgment that someone might have infiltrated! And he was a master! So, an extremely efficient round-up and search began...
The guards of the imperial city did not report it to anyone because the matter was very delicate. First of all, they just suspected that someone had infiltrated, and there were no witnesses. This situation is like the above. If not, then you are just trying to make up for it. If there is, then there is no one.
, that is dereliction of duty. Furthermore, if you want to report, who should you report to? The emperor? He just took office this year... In fact, everyone knows that the real power is basically still in the hands of Cixi. If you bypass Lafayette and report to the emperor first
, maybe the old lady will snap you up when she gets upset.
Then report it directly to Cixi? No way, this old woman is in a good mood tonight, eating rice dumplings and listening to songs, so you use this uncertain thing to spoil her old man's fun? That's still a dead end, isn't it?
Neither the emperor nor Lafayette can do it, so how about we report it to the steward in the palace? If something happens, as an insider, he can easily take on the responsibility.
It's a pity that the relationship between the imperial army and the eunuchs has not been good since ancient times. In fact, the eunuchs, as a sick group of people with physiological defects causing psychological distortion, have a bad relationship with everyone... You still want him to help
Take responsibility? Maybe later on, you will take the blame, or you will die...
Therefore, the Imperial Guards were thinking, how about we handle this matter internally? If it is a small matter, there is no need to report it after it is dealt with, and it will just be exposed...
In this way, by some strange combination of circumstances, this cat-and-mouse game unfolded in the vast Forbidden City, but only those involved knew about it...

In the red city wall corridor, two figures passed quickly.
Master Mao instantly turned a corner at almost a right angle of 90 degrees. Wang Xu, who was following behind, was not carrying any weight and could move more flexibly. With a tap of his foot on the wall next to him, his whole body was ejected and quickly pulled closer.
The distance from Mr. Cat.
"I said... do you know the road..." Wang Xu said as he ran.
Master Mao didn't even look back, and said softly: "This is not a question of knowing the way... We are like playing some video game now. As long as we are seen by these NPCs moving around, we will immediately be GAMEOVER."
"Ok?"
"No...I mean the Pacman in the arcade back then..."
"Well... then just pretend that I didn't say anything..."
Mr. Cat sneered: "It seems that I will have to make time to do a standard Rorschach inkblot test on you in the future."
The two of them complained softly as they walked through the twists and turns of the alleyways, but the encirclement network of the Forbidden Army was getting smaller and smaller. The Forbidden Army was different from the NPCs in Pacman. These people were familiar with the terrain and had good training.
Su, divided into several teams and gradually narrowed the scope of the search, like a machine that ran in an orderly manner, without any deviations or omissions. By the time they completed the search, they must have visited every place.
Wang Xu gradually felt something bad, and he said: "Hey... If we continue like this, there will be no way around. I noticed just now that when we first walked to the intersection, there were three directions to choose from, but now there are only two.
At some intersections, you can only run in one direction."
Master Mao said: "I have no choice. Their search route must have been rehearsed in advance. Each team will not take the same route, and there will be no room for maneuver or time difference on each road."
He raised his head and glanced at the city wall: "It's definitely not possible to jump up. The guards on the turret may be equipped with observation glasses. Even if they climb over the wall, they may be exposed."
Wang Xu said anxiously: "Hey! Don't you know a lot of evil tricks? What about wall-penetrating skills and invisibility skills? Now don't hide them. Just use them!"
"There is nothing like what you said..."
"How could it not be!"
"Because the ultimate skills that men dream of, such as walking through walls and becoming invisible, and being able to launch attacks on women's bathhouses around the world, have been deliberately avoided by the author..."
"Fuck..."
While they were talking, Wang Xu and Mao Ye had already bumped into a patrol team ahead.
The team was led by a Baihu, followed by ten guards. When these eleven people turned the corner, they should have seen a scene like this: a strange guy with silver hair, and a man with idle eyes.
A decadent man with a coffin on his shoulders.
Then they would send a signal to the team and draw their weapons to capture the two guys. If the two guys resisted, they would naturally kill them on the spot.
But this did not happen, because at the moment when the leading Baihu emerged from the corner, he stopped and stretched out his hand to stop the ten people behind him.
"I seem to hear something moving over there! Everyone, turn around! Go over there and have a look."
Several of his men looked at each other in confusion. Anyway, they didn't hear anything, but since the commander said so, let's turn around.
They just left. Master Mao stood there dumbfounded. He threw Wang Xu, who had fainted on the ground, into the coffin, carried it on his shoulders, and quietly followed the group just now, keeping a corner.
distance begins to advance.

Chuxiu Palace, one of the Six Western Palaces, is Cixi’s bedroom.
In the second year of Xianfeng, Cixi was named Lan Guiren. As soon as she entered the palace, she was favored by the emperor and lived here. By the tenth year of Guangxu, Cixi was already the Queen Mother of the West. To celebrate her fiftieth birthday, she left the residence where she lived.
Changchun Palace returned to Chuxiu Palace. It also renovated Chuxiu Palace, Yikun Palace and other places, spending 630,000 taels of silver, making Chuxiu Palace the most exquisite palace among the Six Western Palaces.
In the courtyard of Chuxiu Palace, there are vigorous ancient cypresses, and there are a pair of bronze dragons and a pair of bronze deer on the east and west sides of the platform. The oil decoration on the outer eaves of Chuxiu Palace adopts "Su-style color paintings" with elegant colors, and the themes include flowers, birds, fish and insects, landscape figures and gods.
Stories, etc.; the doors and windows are all carved with fine-textured nanmu with patterns of "Wanfu Longshou" and "Five Blessings Holding Longevity".
The walls of the corridor are engraved with flattering eulogies written by ministers in regular script. The entire courtyard is decorated in a solemn and simple manner. The interior decoration is exquisite and gorgeous. Behind the main room is a nanmu carved glass back. In front of the cover is a platform with a table.
Set up a red sandalwood carved mirror-centered screen inlaid with the Chinese character "Shou". In front of the screen, there are thrones, incense tables, palace fans, incense tubes, etc.
The courtyard is spacious and quiet, with east and west side halls, and the "Lijing Pavilion" at the back. They are all hard-topped buildings. It can be said that this is one of the highest masterpieces of the architectural designers of the late Qing Dynasty in my country.
If this place were to be placed in modern society, among other things, it must choose the best prime location! It is necessary to have mountains and water. It is best to find a cliff by the sea, with a 360-degree unparalleled sea view, and a house
It's like the vampire count's castle.
Broadband, optical cable, satellite, everything that can be connected to him will be connected to him. There is a garden upstairs and a swimming pool inside the building. There is a full-time eunuch in the building who has pigtails and is very handsome. Old man
As soon as the Buddha comes in, no matter what happens, he has to say to others: "The Queen Mother is blessed." He speaks authentic Beijing Mandarin, which gives him a lot of face.
Build a royal private school nearby, use Ji Xiaolan's textbooks, and his tuition fee alone will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver a year. Then build a British clinic, with round-the-clock consultation, it is one word - expensive! The whole "occasionally infected with wind and cold"
"It would cost 18,000 yuan.
The neighbors around here are either riding red rabbits or riding horses. If you ride a horse from the Song Dynasty onwards, you will be embarrassed to say hello to others when you go out!
How much would one square meter of such a land cost?
I think it will cost 20,000 euros no matter what...
Twenty thousand?! That’s the cost! Starting from forty thousand euros! Don’t think it’s too expensive and don’t discount it. You have to study the psychology of the owners. Owners who can use navy military funds to repair the Summer Palace don’t care about spending tens of thousands more.
Do you know what it means to bring disaster to the country and the people?
What brings disaster to the country and the people is that they do nothing without thinking, and only do what they like, regardless of the life and death of the country and the people. Therefore, our slogan for this business is, not to be luxurious, but to be extraordinary!

That’s the end of the real estate advertisement, let’s take a look at Wang Xu and Mao Ye again. As soon as the man from Baihu looked around the corner, he made eye contact with Wang Xu. Then, I don’t know whether it was Wang Xu who jumped over the wall in a hurry, or whether
An unexpected flash of inspiration occurred, and in short, he once again used his power of possession.
That poor Baihu was like a character in an online game, becoming Wang Xu's puppet, and he would not remember anything afterwards...
Master Cat always used his spiritual power to cause subtle tremors in the air at the right time to guide Wang Xu in the direction he should go. Wang Xu also understood his intentions, and they gradually approached Chuxiu Palace.
The night got darker and darker...until midnight, they finally arrived at their destination...
