The first snow of the year decorates the outer courtyard of the theater with a unique flavor.

Chu Mo, dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes and a white fox jade cloak, was standing in the courtyard in the falling snow, feeling the change of the seasons.

The shadows and ghosts were completely unaffected by the solar terms, and the wind and snow could not get close to them when they stood there.

"Dong dong dong -"

A knock on the door broke the silence of the courtyard, and Chu Mo looked towards the gate.

Mouse Ears, with vigorous steps, walked to the door lightly and opened it.

Zhang Jue walked in from the main gate with Liu Chongwu. When he saw Chu Mo standing in the courtyard, he said in a deep voice, "My lord, Wei Zheng sent a letter asking me to rescue this man and bring him to you."

When Chu Mo was looking at the person who followed Zhang Jiao, a shadow and a ghost appeared behind Chu Mo at the same time.

Zhang Jue's pupils suddenly shrank when he saw this. If he didn't know the two Shadows, he would have taken action.

"Hello, my Lords."

Zhang Jue bowed his head and saluted.

The two Shadows ignored Zhang Jiao, their eyes all fell on Liu Chongwu, and then slowly said: "Liu Chongwu, the son of the housekeeper of Prime Minister Wei Yu's house, why are you here, what happened in the imperial capital?"

Seeing Shadow and Ghost, the two close ministers of the emperor, Liu Chongwu knew that the young man in front of him was the crown prince mentioned by the prime minister and the new emperor of Xiayang in the future.

Liu Chongwu's knees softened, and he knelt down and said, "Your Highness, I, Liu Chongwu, pay my respects to you."

"The head of the family asked me to tell Your Highness that there is a turbulent situation in the imperial capital. He has a hunch that this turbulence may affect the entire dynasty and will change the world. The head of the family also said that he has a hunch that someone will harm him, so he helped me get out of it and asked me to hand this item to Your Highness."

"Also, the head of the family asked me to tell Your Highness that I failed the trust of the late emperor. I was unable to lead the horse and hold the stool for Your Highness to conquer the world. I was unable to call Your Highness in person, and I was not able to see Your Highness ascend to the throne and take charge of the great treasure. I am filled with hatred in my heart and will not be able to close my eyes in death."

After saying that, Liu Chongwu held a square object wrapped in cloth above his head and lay on the ground crying.

Chu Mo was stunned when he heard this. He had just learned that Prime Minister Wei Yu was one of his own and was in the imperial capital to help him stabilize the situation. The next moment, he had a premonition that he was in danger of death and sent people across thousands of miles to deliver messages and gifts, which really caught Chu Mo off guard.

Upon hearing this, Shadow frowned and said in a deep voice: "Liu Chongwu, what is the situation in the imperial capital now?"

Liu Chongwu shook his head and said, "Your subordinates don't know. I have been fighting for thousands of miles and escaped from the imperial capital to here for half a month."

Hearing this, the ghost sighed slightly and said to Chu Mo: "It has been too long. Since the Prime Minister predicted that the imperial capital would change, then there must have been changes by now."

"Your Highness, the most important thing for us now is to quickly learn about any changes in the Imperial Capital. Unfortunately, this is Haozhou. In order to avoid exposing our location, we cannot get in touch with the Imperial Capital's Shadow Guards. I request that you go to the Imperial Capital to gather information."

Ever since they were ordered to go to Haozhou secretly, they were afraid that there might be spies among the Shadow Guards and that contact might expose their position, so they cut off contact with all the secret guards and shadow guards. Now, they can only go in person to get the news.

Just as Chu Mo was about to agree, Chen Gong appeared and stopped the ghost's actions.

"My lord, we are now in the dark and should not be exposed. In addition, the imperial capital is far away from us, and there will always be turmoil, and we will not be the first to be affected. I think we should not rashly get involved, and we just need to wait and see what happens."

"If the changes really affect the world, I believe there will be news soon. We just need to plan before we act and wait."

Hearing this, Chu Mo felt that what Chen Gong said was very reasonable.

Just as Chu Mojing was waiting for the changes in the world, the ninth prince Tang Chengyun, who was in the imperial capital, was in high spirits.

Originally, he was just an ordinary prince with no sense of existence. His mother came from an ordinary small family and could not help him compete for the throne, and he was not favored by the emperor.

In order to survive, he has been living a low-key life and dares not have any unrealistic thoughts.

But things change unpredictably, and he did not expect that one day he would be forced to embark on the path of ruling the world.

With the emperor in a coma, all the princes capable of competing for the throne were sent away, and the queen committed suicide one after another. Only civil and military officials were left in the court, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of.

No, in Tang Chengyun's mind, his situation was no different from being roasted on a fire, but he was powerless to resist.

In order to save his own life and the lives of his loved ones, he had no choice but to compromise. He was pushed by the forces behind him onto this path of no return.

He is not even a puppet, but the forces behind the scenes are stealing the country in his name.

Now, under the manipulation of the forces behind the scenes, Huangzhou has successfully fallen into their hands, and what they are doing now is to consolidate their rule.

The first obstacle standing in their way was Prime Minister Wei Yu, who was in charge of government affairs, commanded all officials, and knew too many secrets.

The inner courtyard of the imperial palace, a place where only the emperor is qualified to live, has now become Tang Chengyun's private territory.

After feeling an unprecedented experience, Tang Chengyun gradually became addicted to the pleasure brought by power and status, and his heart was quietly changing in such an environment.

This kind of life of luxury and debauchery, where one person's words decide other people's life and death, is like a quagmire that makes people sink deeper and deeper without realizing it.

At this moment, in the palace which was as warm as spring, a group of palace maids were carefully serving Tang Chengyun.

The palace is richly decorated, with luxurious and precious tables, chairs and benches, rooms filled with rare treasures, and so on. The whole palace is filled with a sense of luxury.

After eating an exotic fruit handed to him by the maid, Tang Chengyun lay lazily on the bed, looking very enjoyable.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a slender figure and steady steps walked in, holding a long sword and with a hint of arrogance on his face.

"Prince You, the Lord has ordered you to go to the Prime Minister's Residence as a prince, and go there under the guise of a visit to get information, especially all the information about the current emperor. Do your best to get it."

The person who came looked like he was just following orders, and when he stood in front of Tang Chengyun, he did not show the slightest respect.

Such an attitude made Tang Chengyun very angry, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

The visitor looked at Tang Chengyun with a look of sarcasm in his eyes, and then said privately: "By the way, King You, I advise you that you'd better gain something from this trip. The old man is now seriously ill in bed and I'm afraid he won't have much time left. Seize this opportunity and show your value. If there were no other choice, do you think he would choose a loser like you?"

The visitor's reckless words directly hurt Tang Chengyun's heart.

Faced with such humiliation, Tang Chengyun's face turned gloomy, and darkness continued to grow in his heart.

The man who delivered the message did not stay long and left the palace under Tang Chengyun's murderous look.
