Chapter 69 Struggle for Power

 After returning to the college, he returned to the three-point-one-line life style.

What Su Luoheng makes every day in the laboratory is still a second-level soul guide, but the type is different every day.

In Ran Yuming's words, this is laying the foundation. When he can skillfully use soul guidance inscriptions to make a third-level soul guidance device, it will naturally come naturally.

……

……

The central area of ​​Mingdu, Prince Heng's Mansion.

The empty hall was silent, as if some kind of storm was brewing.

Inside the hall, Xu Jinyu was sitting on a chair in the middle, with his hands crossed and his fingers clasped tightly, his eyes slightly closed, and his brows furrowed slightly, showing a bit of exhaustion.

His face is a little pale, and it seems that he has not recovered from the injuries he suffered in the Jingyang Mountains.

"..."

Outside the door, the guard's voice suddenly sounded.

"Your Highness."

"What's the matter?"

Hearing the sound, Xu Jinyu raised his eyes slightly, his eyes as cold as ice.

Outside the house, the guard knelt down on one knee and reported: "Butler Chen is back."

Xu Jinyu said calmly, "Let him come in."

"Yes."

"..."

"Tap tap - tap tap -"

Soon, the sound of hurried footsteps came from far away, and soon an old man in green shirt, who looked to be in his fifties, but had white hair and a thin body, walked in.

"Your Highness."

The old man saluted him respectfully.

"Sit down, Uncle Chen."

Uncle Chen stopped talking and looked at Xu Jinyu with concern.

"Your Highness, your injury..."

"Nothing serious."

Xu Jinyu waved her hand and then asked: "How was the situation when you went to investigate?"

"The whereabouts of your trip to the Terrorclaw Soul Instructor Legion this time was indeed leaked by Lin Yu, the rip-off guy! I think the old prince was very kind to him back then, but now that our Prince Heng Mansion has lost power, this bitch has forgotten the benefits.

Dare to collude with outsiders to murder His Highness."

As he spoke, Uncle Chen's tone became more and more excited, his face turned red and he looked indignant!

He originally said that this person was loyal and would never make mistakes, but now that he thinks about it, it really slaps him in the face!

Hearing this, Xu Jinyu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his deep and dark pupils flashed with a cold light.

"Where is he now? Have you caught him?"

"My subordinates immediately led people to blockade his mansion. Unfortunately, he may have heard the news in advance. When his subordinates felt it, he was not in the mansion, and only a few of his men were captured."

"My subordinates dare not go beyond the bounds, so I ask Your Highness to deal with it."

"Let's take care of everything after the interrogation."

Xu Jinyu waved her hand, her tone was calm, her expression was calm, and nothing unusual could be seen.

"My subordinates did not do their job well and mistrusted Lin Yu, which put you in crisis..."

"Please punish me, Your Highness."

Uncle Chen lowered his head and took the initiative to take all the responsibility for Xu Jinyu's attack on himself, his tone full of guilt and self-blame.

"It is difficult for subordinates to be qualified for the position of steward."

"Uncle Chen, I know your loyalty very well. You know people but not their hearts. I can't blame you for this. Now our Prince Heng's Mansion is in trouble both internally and externally, and the few people around us are of no use. Uncle Chen can't bear to let me take care of it alone?"<

/p>

Xu Jinyu took the hand of Uncle Chen who was hunched over, flattened it, and said gently and concernedly.

He has never had the slightest doubt about Uncle Chen's loyalty, because if he wanted to harm him, he would have had countless opportunities.

Hearing this, Uncle Chen's heart trembled slightly.

"I am ashamed, but..."

"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now."

Xu Jinyu waved her hand, indicating that she would take it up and not mention it again.

Seeing this, Uncle Chen stopped trying to shirk the blame and asked in a deep voice, "Your Highness, what should we do with Lin Yu?"

"Process?"

Xu Jinyu sneered, a chill flashed in his eyes, and said in a cold voice, "Since he betrayed his master to seek glory, he should bear the corresponding consequences. If the order is passed, all those who are close to Lin Yu will be killed! Even if they are

Even if the entire Ming Dynasty is dug three feet into the ground, I want his head on his neck!"

"I understand." Uncle Chen accepted the order.

Xu Jinyu is in a very unhappy mood now that the culprit has not been caught!

If he hadn't met Su Luoheng's master and apprentice this time, he might have already fed the corpses to the wolves!

It's bullshit that it doesn't bring harm to relatives and friends! If it's your turn to be plotted against you and almost lose your life, how can you still be so calm?

Haha...

That is really a great saint.

"..."

Xu Jinyu calmed down a little and asked, "Do you have any clues about the person behind him?"

"Not yet."

Without catching Lin Yu, the intelligence in their hands is limited.

"Find it out for me, no matter..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Jinyu suddenly thought of something. A trace of helplessness flashed in his gloomy eyes, and he waved his hands and said, "Forget it, the main thing is to find Lin Yu."

Now that Prince Heng's palace is in trouble internally and externally, even if the person behind it is found, there is nothing he can do.

"My subordinates understand."

Uncle Chen also sighed, a deep feeling of powerlessness welling up in his heart.

When the old prince was well, who dared to treat Prince Heng's Mansion like this? Unfortunately, now that the sun is declining, everyone outside is eyeing their fat piece.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait."

Xu Jinyu suddenly spoke to stop him, and specifically warned, "Let the people in the house keep their mouths shut. Please keep this matter of my attack secret. My father must not know!"

"My subordinates understand."

Chen Bo nodded and slowly exited the room.

"..."

After he left, Xu Jinyu slowly stood up and stood in front of the window, looking at a courtyard somewhere in the mansion.

The expression is complicated and lonely.

……

……

At the same time.

Outside Mingdu City, in a dark alley.

"Huh-huh-"

A man hurriedly ran over from the other end of the alley, sweating on his forehead, breathing heavily, and his clothes were messy, looking quite embarrassed.

"Ma De...Fortunately, I am smart!"

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

This person is the culprit Xu Jinyu is looking for: Lin Yu.

This guy was also extremely alert. He noticed in advance that the atmosphere in the house was not right. When he thought about the lack of news coming from the Jingyang Mountains, he guessed that an accident might have happened, so he made a decisive decision and took him home without even returning home.

He ran away overnight with a few cronies.

If he hadn't run fast enough, he would have been blocked in Mingdu by the people from Prince Heng's Mansion.

After a long journey, we finally got here.

Standing in front of the alley.

Lin Yu looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that no one was around, he sneaked into the alley.

Then, after wandering around the twists and turns of the alley for several times, we stopped in front of a shabby-looking and unremarkable concierge.

"Dong dong dong——"

"Dong dong——dong dong——"

Three long and two short, the sound of knocking on the door is neither fast nor slow, and it is particularly clear in the quiet alley.

This is a special password for contact.

Only knocks with this frequency will be answered.

Sure enough, just after the knock on the door, the originally closed courtyard door opened with a creak.

Lin Yu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped into the house.
