The two pieces of news were groundbreaking and spread throughout Wuyang City overnight.
Whether it is the former or the latter, it is something that no one has expected.
Tonight, Wuyang City is destined to have no sleep.
The four imperial armies immediately blocked the royal city, and Crown Prince Li was nowhere to be found.
The Master of Siming Palace of the Three Prefectures and Nine Divisions rushed to the Shenyu Palace overnight to support the crown prince Ji Quan to inherit the destiny and ascend the throne. Ji Quan immediately issued an edict to search for Li Danqing throughout the city, vowing to avenge the late emperor.
At the same time, a large number of soldiers and horses arrived outside the second prince Ji Fei's house and imprisoned him in the house on the grounds that the traitor had not yet been caught and the prince needed to be protected.
At the same time, several shoguns of the Guiyu Mansion who had close contact with the second prince were dismissed from their posts, three red-robed bachelors from the Taixue Pavilion were imprisoned, and several important officials of the three sifu offices of Wanchu, Yuzheng, and Daliang were suspended from their posts.
Wuyang City was roaring with wind and cranes weeping, the soldiers of the vassals outside the city surrounded the royal capital tightly, and there was an endless stream of soldiers patrolling the streets inside the city.
Overnight, things in Wu Yangchao changed...
…
Most of the people in Wuyang City stayed awake tonight, and everyone in the Prince's Mansion was even more sleepless tonight.
From last night, before the news came that Ji Qi was killed by Li Danqing, a large number of soldiers surrounded the prince's mansion and restricted everyone's access.
The sky was just getting dark, and most of the people in the Prince's residence who had been worried for a whole night were looking sad.
Everyone was sitting in the pavilion in the backyard. You looked at me and I looked at you. They wanted to say something several times, but when the words came to their lips, they didn't know how to say them.
Such a thing has greatly exceeded everyone's expectations and beyond everyone's ability.
Even until now, most of them have not recovered from this shocking news.
"No! We can't go on like this! I want to get out!" Liu Yanzhen broke the dead silence among everyone at this moment. She slapped the table and stood up. After saying this, she angrily walked out of the hospital.
.
Seeing this, Xia Xianyin beside him reached out and grabbed the other party's clothes.
"If you go out now, not to mention whether you can break through the formation set up by the Xuanwu Army with your cultivation, it will really allow you to fight a bloody path. What will happen after that? Where can you go? What can you do?
"Xia Xianyin said loudly.
"At this moment, these Xuanwu troops have trapped us in the Prince's Mansion. It is obviously because Li Danqing has not been found by them yet. We are still of some use to them. At the same time, they cannot prove that we are involved in Li Danqing's matter. You
Now that we are defying the decree and leaving the government, doesn't that give them a reason to attack us?"
There was no problem at all with Xia Xianyin's words. No matter in terms of logic or content, Liu Yanzhen could not find any faults. However, it was precisely because of the impeccable nature of these words that Liu Yanzhen realized how difficult everyone's situation was.
Because she had no way to vent her worries about Li Danqing, she turned into raging anger. She looked at Xia Xianyin angrily and asked loudly: "What should we do? Are we just waiting here for him to be caught by these people?"
"Kill out, even if you die, you will die together!"
Compared to Xia Xianyin's calmness, Liu Yanzhen's words were obviously two extremes.
She acts on impulse and never considers the consequences.
Such an approach may seem unwise to onlookers, but for those involved, it is a little more inciting.
Xia Xianyin could clearly feel that as Liu Yanzhen's words came out, expressions of emotion appeared on the faces of everyone around him.
People are always prone to make unwise and impulsive decisions when in despair. This is due to human nature and has little to do with intelligence.
Xia Xianyin did not want the situation to develop into such an irreversible situation. She frowned and then said: "I understand your thoughts, but at this time, the less we can act impulsively."
"I don't want to be impulsive, but is there any other way besides this?" Liu Yanzhen asked loudly.
Xia Xianyin's brows furrowed a little deeper. She turned her head and looked at Qingzhu aside. Qingzhu obviously understood her thoughts and stepped forward. He said with a deep eye, "Do you trust the Crown Prince?"
This question was a bit abrupt, but after a brief moment of surprise, everyone nodded.
Seeing this, Qingzhu added: "Although he is usually careless and careless in doing things, he has never been careless in matters of right and wrong."
"When he faced the 400,000 Youyun army alone for the people of Yingshui County, it shows that he was aware of his carelessness."
"Even if he really has these irreconcilable conflicts with Ji Qi, it is absolutely impossible for him to commit regicide. What's more, he has always been calm in doing things. Even if he really wants to regicide, he will definitely leave a mark for himself.
The way out, do you think such a reckless move was made by him?"
Qingzhu's question made everyone stunned at that time. Ning Xiu was the first to react. She looked up at Qingzhu and asked: "Senior Sister Wen Jun means..."
"I don't think it was the dean who did this." Qingzhu said firmly.
These words also woke up everyone present. Their expressions changed. Luo Anan stood up and said: "I also think that the dean would not do such a thing. At first, the incident happened suddenly and there was no time to think about it carefully. Now I heard Senior Sister Wen Jun
I also think this analysis is reasonable, and I’m afraid there may be some hidden secrets that we don’t know about.”
"That little bastard, although he is a bastard, he is not a fool.
If you want to kill people, you have to do it beautifully, how can it be known to everyone in the city?" At this time, Shi Ziju, who had always been at odds with Li Danqing, also spoke up.
After all, the old man was well-informed. After listening to his words, everyone slowly sorted out the clues and smelled something unusual in this.
Xia Xianyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. She had such a premonition in her heart, but she couldn't explain it clearly at the moment. She looked at Qingzhu and gave him a grateful look.
She was really scared just now. She couldn't suppress the group of people in front of her and let them cause some trouble. If Li Danqing came back, everyone would have three fights and two meals. She didn't know how to talk to Li Danqing.
.
Seeing this, Qingzhu nodded towards her, and Xia Xianyin felt relieved. She calmed down, and then said: "It is precisely because of this that we have to calm down now, before we figure out the whole story.
, what we have to do is to find a way to let ourselves live a good life, so that he will not worry about us, this is the best way we can help him now."
After hearing this, everyone who calmed down nodded.
But Jiang Yu on the side asked quietly at this moment: "What if..."
"I mean what if the dean really kills the late emperor..."
When this question came out, the expressions of everyone who had just ignited some hope suddenly changed, and the mansion fell into dead silence again...
Xia Xianyin gritted her teeth, reached out and felt the cold touch from Yuan Hu on her sleeves, and then she whispered: "If that's really the case."
"Then I believe he must have a reason to do this, and I... will stand firmly by his side. No matter what, I will not let him die in front of me!"
The girl said this categorically, leaving no room for doubt.
The people around him suddenly heard the words. Although they didn't answer, the determination that flashed between their brows at that moment probably revealed their thoughts.
…
When Li Danqing sat up from the bed, the sky was already bright, and there was no hustle and bustle outside the street, except for the sound of soldiers patrolling from time to time and the sound of armor clashing.
He opened his eyes and saw an extremely unfamiliar scene around him. The room was simply furnished, and it seemed like an extremely ordinary place.
But this is ordinary, but it also reveals that it is unusual!
Li Danqing's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly got up, but after thinking about it he felt something was wrong, so he simply lay back down again——
His memory stayed in the Mingzhao Hall of yesterday.
He remembered what Jiqi said to him, and he also remembered the decision he made while gritting his teeth. He was very angry at Jiqi's condescending attitude, but at the same time he could only helplessly restrain his murderous intent.
After all, he still couldn't bear to watch the peaceful world that his father had worked so hard to build turn into powder overnight.
He finally compromised.
But at that moment, a powerful will suddenly took over his body. It was a very strange feeling, completely different from the feeling when he was possessed by the extremely evil sword spirit.
His consciousness is clear and his will is intact.
But he lost control of his body.
He could only watch helplessly as he activated a force that did not belong to him at all, and then blasted the entire Mingzhao Palace to collapse. At the same time, he summoned countless divine swords and stabbed Ji Qi with holes.
Then, as if he had completed his mission, that will suddenly subsided, and a huge sense of fatigue surged into his heart. He quickly fell from the sky to the ground. He vaguely saw countless soldiers and countless powerful soldiers.
His energy locked onto him in an instant, but at the same time, a black shadow lifted his body up before he fell to the ground and left quickly.
It was at this stall that Li Danqing completely lost consciousness.
Li Danqing could probably guess that the guy who rescued him and brought him here was probably the culprit who controlled him to attack Ji Qi. And such a person must have extremely advanced cultivation.
In Li Danqing's opinion, rashly contacting the other party before the whole process was over was not a wise choice. At the same time, he also needed some time to sort out his current situation.
He lay back on the bed, closed his eyes, and allowed his breathing to become steady.
At the same time, I was secretly thinking about my situation at the moment.
At that time, he blasted the Mingzhao Palace to pieces, and as if he was afraid that others would not know that he had killed Ji Qi, he lifted the opponent's body into the air and then beheaded him.
During this process, Li Danqing knew very well that his determination had been seen by most people. Wuyang City was probably in chaos at the moment. The imperial court must have sealed off the royal capital and searched for him as the culprit throughout the city. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little agitated.
Worried about the situation of everyone in the Prince's Mansion.
"Are you awake?" At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Li Danqing's mind.
Li Danqing was stunned for a moment, but he soon realized that the owner of the voice was the blazing soul in his body.
His heart moved, and his mind sank into the Divine River, where he saw the blazing sun star spirit sitting cross-legged in the Divine River.
After experiencing the changes in the previous world, the Lieyang Star Spirit got a blessing in disguise and refined a feathered body. At the same time, with the help of those majestic sword intentions, the feathered body was solidified, and its strength has directly reached the highest level of infinity.
The evil body can completely separate from Li Danqing and move on its own, but of course it cannot leave Li Danqing's body too far away.
The blazing sun star spirit who got the body was somewhat excited, and seemed a little eager to act independently, but because of that big
The battle had taken a huge toll on him, and at the same time, the star spirits captured in the other world had not been completely resolved, so he had been cultivating in Li Danqing's divine river these days.
Logically speaking, after several days of repairs, the Lieyang Star Spirit should be mostly recovered even if it has not fully recovered. However, at this moment, the Lieyang Star Spirit who has transformed into the appearance of Master Ji in front of her has a dim light all over her body, and her eyebrows are dim.
Drooping, some parts of the body were even blurry, looking like they were dying.
"What's going on with you?" Li Danqing was shocked when he saw this and asked at that time.
The Lieyang Star Spirit raised his head and glanced at him. Surprisingly, he did not sneer at Li Danqing as usual. Instead, there was a look of guilt in his brows: "I seem to have caused you a lot of trouble!"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Li Danqing was stunned and asked in astonishment, but as soon as the words came out, he smiled bitterly and said: "You probably don't know, what I am facing now is a big trouble, I'm afraid you can't mess with it.
There could be bigger trouble than this."
The Lieyang Star Spirit said: "This is the trouble I'm talking about."
"Huh?" Li Danqing frowned: "You won't tell me that you controlled my body yesterday, right?"
"Brother, even if you are dissatisfied with the appearance of the female devil, you still think that this prince's appearance is more in line with the aesthetics of your star spirits, and you are greedy for my body, but there is no need to be like this!"
"I am now a street rat in the true sense. Even if you really take away my body, you will still be hunted to the ends of the earth with my skin."
The Lieyang Star Spirit probably didn't expect that Li Danqing could tell such a joke at this juncture. She glared at Li Danqing and then said: "How could I do such a thing? Do you remember that I am here?"
The star spirit that the world recovered?"
"Remember, why, he did this? Hasn't he already been swallowed by you?" Li Danqing asked in shock.
The Lieyang Star Spirit lowered his brows and said: "When I captured him, I really had the intention of devouring him. After all, my origin is weak, and I urgently need this kind of power to supplement my origin power..."
"But in the process of devouring it, I had some exchanges with him, and I moved... and felt a little compassion..."
When the Lieyang Star Spirit said this, his voice suddenly became a little softer, and the guilt in his tone became a little heavier.
"Why?" Li Danqing asked.
There was no hint of anger in the words that the Lieyang Star Spirit imagined. Instead, he seemed extremely calm, and even the expression between his brows was somewhat interesting.
Lieyang Star Spirit was a little surprised by Li Danqing's attitude. He frowned and said: "Suppose you are in a strange world. The people living here have different appearances, different languages, and even treat everything from you.
All things have different opinions, and at this moment, you suddenly meet a fellow racer. Although his ideas are slightly different from yours, he has his reasons. In your thinking, the logic you can understand,
Of course I don’t agree, would you be willing to kill him?”
Li Danqing seemed to understand what Lieyang Star Spirit said.
Li Danqing frowned and asked, "So, what exactly did he say to you?"
"He is the star spirit of the holy mountain Huangxuan Mountain. Ever since the change of dynasties in your world a hundred years ago, a group of people have imprisoned him and tried to absorb his power. He hid everywhere and finally hid in that world. It was probably because of this.
Only then did he show so much malice toward our arrival..."
"So you decided to let him go?" Li Danqing asked again.
Lieyang Star Spirit said: "I just think we can give him a chance and have a good talk with him after he calms down. His understanding of you is too one-sided. We now have the ability to create feather bodies, so we can give him a chance."
I wanted to take another body and let him see the real appearance of this world for himself... He also showed obedience. Just when I thought things could continue like this, just last night, he suddenly inspired a powerful force to break free.
My restraints then control your body..."
Li Danqing was stunned when he heard this. At this time, he finally understood the whole story. It turned out that everything happened yesterday was caused by another star spirit in his body.
"What happened after that? Where did it go?" Li Danqing asked again.
"He inspired his own original power, and the already weak power reached the point where it ran out of gas and completely dissipated after that."
The Lieyang Star Spirit said at this time that when he mentioned this matter, his mood was somewhat complicated. He was moved and sad for the death of his kin, but at the same time he felt guilty for being soft-hearted for a moment and causing Li Danqing a huge trouble.
.
When Li Danqing heard this, he secretly smacked his tongue and muttered: "Does this guy hate me so much?"
"It's probably because the previous human race did too cruel things to him, so he did..." said the Lieyang Star Spirit.
Li Danqing probably also noticed that the Lieyang Star Spirit was not in a good mood. He smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with you. This is a trap that was set early in the morning."
"What do you mean?" Lieyang Star Spirit asked in surprise.
Li Danqing smiled faintly and did not answer his question. Instead, he withdrew from Shenhe. He opened his eyes and stood up straight from the bed without hesitation this time.
"Come in, it's time for us to have a good chat." Li Danqing said loudly towards the door.
The door was pushed open at this moment, and a girl in white walked up to Li Danqing, knelt down on one knee and spoke loudly.
"Baizhiluo, the evil general of the Yin Palace, pays homage to the Lord of the Hades Palace!"
