After rebirth, I remarried the domineering 9000-year-old

The lights in the imperial study were bright.

Xie Heng was blocked outside the door by Eunuch Gui's raised arm: "His Majesty is attending to state affairs and has ordered that he not see anyone. Sixth Prince, please return."

Xie Heng pushed Eunuch Gui away and tried to force his way in.

Eunuch Gui staggered and nearly fell after being pushed. Seeing Xie Heng's actions, he said coldly, "Stop him!"

Two armored soldiers descended from the sky, and in a flash, two swords were placed on Xie Heng's neck.

Xie Heng was so angry that his face turned red: "How dare you! I am the current Sixth Prince, how dare you treat me like this!"

Eunuch Gui slowly brushed the nonexistent dust off his sleeves and said, "Sixth Prince, I'm sorry."

"You little dog slave!" Xie Heng was so angry that he couldn't get in, so he just opened his mouth and yelled at the imperial study: "Father, I have something urgent to ask you, but your little dog slave won't let me in!"

"Father! Father! Your Majesty! I have something to tell you!"

"Father..."

The Emperor of Beiyue in the imperial study was annoyed and said with a gloomy face: "Let him in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Eunuch Gui responded, then leaned over and said to Xie Heng, "Sixth Prince, Your Majesty invites you in."

The two swords on Xie Heng's neck disappeared immediately.

Xie Heng snorted coldly, rolled his eyes at Eunuch Gui, and walked inside.

As soon as he entered, he saw a black shadow flash and disappear behind the screen.

Xie Heng didn't care and turned to the Beiyue Emperor behind the desk and asked anxiously, "Father, I heard that you want to kill Prince Li. Is this true?"

The Emperor of Beiyue sneered: "Who told you that?"

"That's not important!" Xie Heng's voice suddenly became louder: "Father, could you please not kill Prince Li?"

"If you're angry that he cheated you, you can fine him his salary or even fire him..."

"Just don't kill him, okay?" Xie Heng's eyes were filled with pleading.

The Emperor of Beiyue said nothing. He raised his hand and threw something towards Xie Heng: "Look for yourself!"

Xie Heng took the item and took a closer look. It was a secret letter from Shi Lei, the Minister of War. After reading the contents, he was shocked: "Prince Li... escaped?"

"Hmph!" The Emperor of Beiyue's brows darkened. "I haven't even done anything to him yet, and he's already fled. Does he have any trust in me? And you're still pleading for him?"

Xie Heng folded the secret letter and looked at the Emperor of Beiyue seriously: "Father, if he hadn't escaped, would you have let him go?"

The Emperor of Beiyue did not speak.

Xie Heng frowned, his eyes gradually reddening: "Prince Li ran away because he understood you and knew you would never let him go!"

The Emperor of Beiyue was furious: "He has been using my father and me to rise to his current high position. Should I let him go?"

Xie Heng said loudly: "But he didn't even know that he was not a eunuch at the time, how could he be using us?"

"Xie Heng! Do you really believe that someone is that stupid?"

Xie Heng's lips trembled, but he remained silent. He wanted to defend Prince Li, but this... was too far-fetched...

The Emperor of Beiyue walked down the steps and came before Xie Heng:

"Fu Jiuli has been strategizing every step of the way since he entered the palace. He is now second only to the emperor in Beiyue and holds immense power. The reason my father gave him such great power was because he was a eunuch."

"Heng'er, do you know that if the emperor hadn't discovered his secret, and he possessed such great power, once the emperor grew old, if he had even the slightest evil intention, our North Vietnam would most likely be destroyed... Do you understand?"

Xie Heng bit his lip. "But he has been in the palace for ten years and has never done anything to let us down. He even saved my son's life... He has done nothing wrong for Beiyue!"

He looked at the Emperor of Beiyue with red eyes: "Father, now that he has escaped, let's let him go, okay?"

The Emperor of Beiyue sighed deeply. "Heng'er, as the emperor of a country, you hold the power over the public affairs of the country. You must not be lenient. Especially when it comes to threats like this that concern the survival of the country, you must eradicate them completely."

Xie Heng fought back tears: "But father, he has not done anything to rebel. All he has done over the years is good things that benefit the country and the people..."

The Emperor of Beiyue patted Xie Heng on the shoulder and said, "Heng'er, when you grow up, you will understand that great benevolence is not benevolent."

"Father..."

Xie Heng wanted to say something, but the Emperor of Beiyue waved his hand tiredly: "Go back."

Xie Heng didn't want to leave, so the Emperor of Beiyue called two young eunuchs and said, "Take the Sixth Prince back and have him rest. He can study peacefully for the time being."

This is what it means to be grounded.

Watching his son being taken away, the Emperor of Beiyue sighed again.

After standing there for a while, he returned to the desk and sat down: "Cold wind."

A dark shadow flashed out from behind the screen and stood in front of the desk. It was Leng Feng.

The Emperor of Beiyue pressed his forehead and said, "Go on."

Leng Feng nodded and continued, "They originally planned to flee to Southern Xinjiang, but Fu Jiuli has always been smart. Since he escaped overnight, it means he already knew that his subordinates had betrayed him... Then they will most likely change their route and not go to Southern Xinjiang."

The North Vietnamese Emperor pressed the issue, "According to your speculation, where might they have changed their route?"

Leng Feng was silent for a moment and analyzed:

"They probably won't go to Donglai. Although Shen Ming was once the prime minister of Donglai and was deeply trusted by the emperor of Donglai, he also helped Beiyue seize ten cities in Donglai..."

"Donglai has suffered such a huge loss. If they go to Donglai, wouldn't that be like walking into a tiger's mouth?"

"Since Xining lost the Second Prince in North Vietnam, they have always been hostile to North Vietnam. As the Ninth Prince, a powerful figure in North Vietnam, it would be difficult for Fu Jiuli to avoid being implicated if he went to their territory..."

"So," Leng Feng said, "going to Southern Xinjiang is their best option. But now that the plan has been exposed, sticking with it would be foolish. Fu Jiuli definitely won't do that! So he can only choose between Donglai and Xining. It all depends on how he thinks about it."

The Emperor of Beiyue laughed angrily: "You analyzed for so long, and all you get is this bunch of nonsense?"

Leng Feng immediately knelt down and said, "I am stupid, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The Emperor of Beiyue tapped his desk with his fingertips and suddenly changed the subject: "Any more information?"

Leng Feng said, "Fu Jiuli's secret guards have undergone rigorous training in the camp. They can only leave the camp after passing the assessment. They are very powerful. If we rely on only the two thousand guards led by Lord Shi, we will not be able to do anything to them."

He then bowed and said, "I know the weaknesses of all the core members of the Secret Guard. Your Majesty, please assign me two thousand Black Armored Guards. Within ten days, I will bring Fu Jiuli and Shen Nanxing to justice!"

The Emperor of Beiyue's eyes flickered, and he suddenly slammed his hand on the desk. "I will give you five thousand Black Armored Guards. If you fail in your mission, your entire clan will be executed!"
