Shocking! The killer traveled through time and space and became a female Shura, killing like crazy
Chapter 18: The Wise King Exposed
Prince Mu lay quietly on the bed, but his thoughts couldn't help but think of the scene on the cliff.
The woman in white exuded an enchanting fragrance all over her body, which was deeply engraved in his heart like a brand, making him fascinated.
And her strange weapon made him curious, and he wondered if Ye Qing had found her.
He had never been attracted to any girl in his many years in the military camp, but this time he couldn't forget the figure of the woman in white for a long time.
At this moment, the civil strife in the palace prevented him from leaving, otherwise he would definitely go looking for the woman who had been haunting him.
King Mu tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep, and only fell asleep in the second half of the night.
The Shen Rou he was thinking about was heading towards Yunzhou with her grandmother and brother.
After searching for her sister for several days in Shan County and Changping County, she found no trace of her sister. Today, she rented a carriage and headed for Yunzhou City.
"Grandma, Yunzhou is very big. We can run a small business while looking for my sister. After all, we won't be here for a few days. It's time to send Xiaonan to the academy."
"What kind of business is that? Grandma only knows how to do farm work and cook, nothing else."
"I've seen people in Changping County make breakfast. It's very delicious and the steps are simple. I'll take a look at the storefronts first when I get to Yunzhou."
Shen Rou learned how to make pan-fried buns and fried dumplings, as well as spicy soup, from videos she watched on the computer. She also liked to eat them, so she could make money and look after her sister at the same time.
For so many days, she took her grandma and brother into the air-conditioned room to sleep while they were asleep, and took them out of the space when it was almost time.
"The food is good, and grandma can help a little. My bones are sore from being idle for so long."
Shen Rou took out bread and milk from the space and handed them to her grandmother and brother. "You can fill your stomachs first and eat when we get to Yunzhou."
"This was given to me by the girls in the brothel. The bread and milk are really delicious. They must be expensive. These girls are really generous. I haven't seen anyone selling them on the street."
"Grandma, this thing is precious. No one sells it on the street. They all buy it from other places."
"Xiao Nan, you must be hungry! Come and eat."
"Big sister, you eat too."
Shen Rou breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her grandma didn't ask any more questions. Once you tell a lie, you have to use countless lies to cover up the first lie, otherwise the lie will be exposed soon.
Capital
The next morning, the Emperor and Shangguan Yunting were talking when Xiao Qi, the commander of the Imperial Guards, came in to report: "Your humble servant greets the Emperor and meets Prince Mu."
"No need to be polite. What's going on outside the palace?"
“The virtuous king gathered his men and prepared for action, but the other ministers and the righteous king did not take any action.
"How many people does the virtuous king have in the capital?"
"About four or five thousand people."
"Order him to block him at the palace gate. You and He Lingfeng attack him from both sides. Don't let the virtuous king escape."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
"There should be no problem with Yongzhou and Jinpei Ports, right?"
"Han Lin has already sent word that there is no problem."
"As long as those two sides can hold back the virtuous king's men, the virtuous king will be unable to escape this time."
The emperor's eyes were sharp, revealing a sense of majesty. "It is inevitable that the virtuous king will rebel. I have already anticipated this."
Xianwang Mansion
The virtuous king paced in his study, anxiously asking, "Has General Zhao led his men outside the city?"
"No news yet."
"Nothing will happen!"
"Your Highness, don't think too much. General Zhao might be on his way."
"What's going on in the palace?"
"Nothing happened, just like usual."
"It seems that the Queen Mother and Prince Mu are still unaware of my intentions."
"Your Highness, this is better. It will catch them off guard."
"General Zhao has less than 20,000 men. I am unsure."
"Keep investigating. Report to General Zhao and his men immediately if they have any news."
"Yes."
At this moment, General Zhao led 20,000 soldiers to the outskirts of the capital overnight, but was defeated by General Xie who was ambushed on the roadside.
At Jinpei Port, a fierce battle is taking place.
Many ships and porters at the port were frightened when they saw the confrontation between the two armies and fled the scene.
The virtuous king's troops were surrounded by 30,000 soldiers led by Han Lin, and the two sides fought a desperate battle.
On the battlefield, shouts of killing shook the heavens, and the sound of weapons clashing was endless. Han Lin's army surged forward like a tide, and the soldiers of the wise king fought hard, but gradually fell into a disadvantage.
They were forced to retreat step by step by Han Lin's troops, and in desperation, many people chose to flee into the water.
On the water, there was chaos as everyone tried to escape the carnage.
However, Han Lin's army did not let them go and continued to shoot arrows on the shore. Many people were hit by arrows in the water, and their blood dyed a large area of the water red.
The entire Jinpei port was filled with the smell of blood and death. The brutality of the battle was unbearable to watch.
The virtuous king's troops suffered heavy losses under Han Lin's encirclement and suppression, and their defeat seemed doomed.
The Emperor and Prince Mu were sitting in their bedroom when Xiao Qi, the commander of the Imperial Guards, came in to report: "Your Majesty, General Xie has completely routed Prince Xian's men. We should end the battle now."
"What's going on in the Xianwang Mansion?"
"The wise king should have received the news by now."
"Explore again."
"Yes."
"Royal brother, the wise king will be furious when he hears this news. This battle will end in failure before I even take action."
"He probably thought I was still unconscious and therefore unaware of his planned rebellion."
"possible."
When the virtuous king heard the news, his face turned pale and he roared: "How could this happen? Isn't the emperor unconscious? How could he have been prepared in advance?"
"Could it be that the Emperor is deliberately pretending to be unconscious, just to see the reactions of the princes and ministers?"
The virtuous king listened to Fan Zhi's words and turned even paler. "It seems that this king has failed in his mission."
"Your Majesty, there will be another chance after we escort you out of the city."
The virtuous king pondered for a moment, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes, "Mr. Fan, you take my two sons and leave first, I will cover your rear."
"Your Highness, let's go together. We still have 20,000 men at Jinpei Port. As long as we have the green mountains, we won't run out of firewood."
"Go and bring the Crown Prince and the Young Master here, we'll retreat through the west gate."
"Yes."
At the same time, the emperor in the palace received the news that the wise king was going to escape, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"He Lingfeng, take 10,000 people and surround the virtuous king outside the city to prevent him from harming innocent people."
"I humble my duty and obey the decree."
