The team moved a bit slowly, and by Chen time they were still walking through the streets of the capital.
Not only because the black iron box was a bit too heavy, but also because the snow on the ground was so thick that it was not smooth for the cart to be dragged forward by the horse.
There are gradually more and more pedestrians on the street, all the businesses are open, more and more people are having morning tea and breakfast, and all the inns are open for business for the new day.
For such a team of more than fifty people, most people retreated, but there were always some brave ones who followed secretly.
"Leaving the capital in such a grand manner will inevitably attract attention, which is not a good thing after all. I don't know why you insist on going your own way?" Bai Ling complained softly from behind the team.
The subordinates of Lingxiu Division who followed her were very relaxed: "Sister Bai Ling, there is nothing to worry about. The strength of our team is unparalleled. Not only have all the elites gathered together, but we, Bai Lisi and Chunfang,
With the strength of the two leaders, even if the masters come, they would not dare to attack our team, so why should we care about those flies that secretly follow us?"
"Although flies are nothing to worry about, it is still a mortal thing to keep following them like this."
As he spoke, Bai Ling looked left and right, looking at the upstairs of the merchants on both sides. There were evil looks everywhere.
However, after Bai Ling glanced over, those evil eyes hid again.
The seemingly lively streets of Beijing became uneasy and subtle under these strange eyes.
At the front of the team, Xia Shang rode a horse and walked steadily to the rhythm of the cart.
Chunjiao, who was a little behind, suddenly thought of something and chased after her on horseback: "Sir, there is something I forgot to mention."
"whats the matter?"
"News came from Prince Yong's Mansion early this morning, saying that His Highness Prince Yong entered the palace three days ago and never came back."
"Never came back?"
"But someone in the palace sent word that His Highness Prince Yong will be recuperating in the palace for a period of time."
"why is that?"
"I don't know why, but the people in Prince Yong's Mansion are in a hurry. The princess's original intention was to ask you to come over and discuss how to prepare for the next step. But I heard that the emperor had a mission today and truthfully declined the princess's invitation."
"Okay, I understand this matter." Xia Shang nodded without making any statement.
Xia Shang seemed calm on the surface,
But I was already thinking about it in my heart.
King Yong's affairs were part of Xia and Shang's plans, but King Yong's stay in the palace to recuperate was something outside of Xia and Shang's plans.
When King Yong entered the palace, he must have presented the magic pen to the emperor. When Xia Shang met with the emperor yesterday, he already learned that the emperor had received the magic pen, which proved that King Yong did not inform him that he had returned the magic pen to the emperor.
According to Xia Shang's plan, the emperor would definitely understand King Yong's loyalty after getting the magic pen, and then wait for the snowy weather to dissipate, using this as a reason to promote that this was King Yong's return of the magic pen, and give King Yong a
In the name of saving the common people at dawn, it is logical to depose the old prince and appoint King Yong as the new prince.
But who would have thought that King Yong went to the palace and returned the magic pen but could not leave again?
why is that?
Xia Shang never understood it.
This matter may be a bit strange, but the matter in front of Xia Shang is certainly more important.
Xia Shang always felt that the mission of this trip was a bit strange. The emperor said that this black box was used to worship heaven.
There are also rumors in the capital today that the emperor is preparing to personally host the sacrifice to heaven. Perhaps this is preparation for the sacrifice to heaven.
But if you are simply preparing for the Heaven Sacrifice, there is no need to deliberately let the Metropolitan Procuratorate intervene.
After all, the emperor's family has held various sacrificial activities over the years. Although the preparations for royal sacrificial rituals have always been relatively complicated...
Xia Shang shook his head, feeling that there was no need to think about this.
At this moment, several people suddenly jumped out of the restaurants on both sides of the street and rushed from top to bottom towards the black box wrapped in white cloth in the center of the queue.
Finally someone couldn't hold it any longer!
For a moment, the people who were still watching curiously got excited, not knowing what would happen next.
However, when someone recognized the people who suddenly took action, the audience was all shocked.
There are five people in total, each of them is a famous figure in the world, and all of them are masters of the Peiyuan Realm.
Among them, Guo Xingwen, who is known as the one-word divine sword, is still in the late Peiyuan realm, and no one knows his reputation.
Such a team of five people can be said to be unscrupulous in the world.
No wonder they dare to take action suddenly in the capital!
"Regardless of the large number of people in the group below, if you meet these evil gods, you probably won't get a good harvest."
“I don’t know what this batch is.
What's the origin? If you act in such a high profile, you are asking for it if you are targeted."
The surrounding audience looked gloating and talked curiously.
Just when everyone was whispering and talking, several screams suddenly came from below, and a few drops of blood appeared in front of the people talking on the left and right.
There were already people below, but the people upstairs didn't have time to see clearly what was happening below.
Someone was lying on the window looking down and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
But in just a few seconds, the five masters who everyone thought could dominate the world had fallen to the ground in a mess.
Some people had their hands broken, some had their legs broken, and their blood had melted into the snow, and everyone was wailing in pain.
But the team of dozens of people had already reached the end of the street, turned a corner, and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The gate of Xicheng is right in front. As usual, there are very few people entering Xicheng. Due to the heavy snow, the whole street looks very deserted. At a glance, there is not a single person in sight.
After the previous scene, no one in the team dared to follow him anymore, and everyone was still in a very relaxed mood.
I was about to leave the city, and I didn't want to stop someone at the city gate.
The snow was heavy, and it was difficult to see the other person's appearance from a distance, but judging from the outline of the figure, it seemed that the person was not standing, but sitting on something.
As the team approached, Xia Shang finally distinguished it.
That's a wheelchair!
For a moment, Xia Shang thought of the axle marks left in the snow last night, and his whole body became nervous.
"alert!"
Xia Shang whispered.
Everyone cheered up.
They also all know that Xia Shang will not give random orders. He was attacked by five Peiyuan Realm masters before, but his master did not even frown, and his forward speed did not slow down at all.
Now, there is only one person standing in front of me, and he is a cripple in a wheelchair...
This actually made my elders nervous, there must be something fishy.
When he was only about ten meters away from the mysterious man in front of him, the other party suddenly moved, rolling his wheelchair with some difficulty, and then gradually moved closer to Xia Shang.
If the other party is the person who hurt Shangguan Chan last night, then he is a master.
"Everyone stop!" Xia Shang ordered, and the team stopped.
