Chapter 204: Ten Steps of Blood Road I can't get out of it
Xing Zilu said lightly: "When are you going to kill me?"
Ji Yuqi was speechless, and after a long time, he drank the wine lightly and said: "Don't be in a hurry, the clear moon is not in full bloom, the fireworks have not stopped, and drink a few glasses, it will be your own guillotine wine." ”
Xing Zilu shook his head, at this moment he knew that this usually indifferent emperor actually had such forbearance and ruthless resourcefulness, and he really lost his eyes and failed to guard the Shenzhou country for the emperor and saint Gu.
Xing Zilu was remorseful and angry, kicked the chair down, and simply sat cross-legged on the table.
Ji Yuqi sat everyone down, and then glanced at Xing Zilu twice, then stopped talking, and enjoyed the feast with a smile. He understood that with these important ministers at the head, from now on, all officials would surrender.
At this time, Tian Ze was looking for bluestone beads everywhere in the imperial palace, this bead was related to his own life, so he was naturally cautious and careful.
But Tianze searched all over the places that Ji Junxian might have been in the imperial palace, but there was still no trace.
Tian Ze roughly calculated that there was not much time left before the end of the feast at this time, so he had to lock the last target to Ji Yuqi's residence, the Miaofeng Palace. I thought in my heart that if Ji Yuqi got it unintentionally and didn't know it, he would be able to do everything in one trip.
After Ji Yuqi established himself as the emperor, the Miaofeng Hall became a forbidden place, and the ordinary guards and palace maids were not allowed to enter, so there were only garrison soldiers around it, plus tonight's feast, most of the soldiers under Ji Yuqi were also from the sect, and they were used to being idle, which also caused a situation of defense, and Tianze easily entered the Miaofeng Palace.
Maybe Ji Yuqi hasn't had time to tidy up the Miaofeng Palace, and the Miaofeng Hall at this time is still a little desolate.
Tianze searched everywhere, but did not find anything suspicious.
However, Tianze found an unfinished letter under a book on Ji Yuqi's desk.
The letter said: My wife is weak, and my husband has successfully won the throne and is waiting to be rescued.
The abruptly stopped the letter that made Tian Ze wonder, since he entered Zhongshenzhou, he had never heard the news that Ji Yuqi was married, even Ji Jiuge had never told him about it, who was this woman named Qianqiang, who could make Ji Yuqi hide it so deeply.
In addition, although the letter is only two and a half sentences, it reveals a lot of information.
In addition to Ji Yuqi having already married a wife, his tone seems to refer to Ji Yuqi seeking to seize the position of emperor for this woman, and there are the last three words 'to be rescued', who will be rescued? Could it be that Ji Yuqi has someone who attaches great importance to being held hostage?
Tianze faintly felt that behind Ji Yuqi's plot to seize the throne, it was not as simple as he imagined.
At this time, the sound of fireworks and fireworks outside the Miaofeng Hall was the end of the imperial palace feast. Tian Ze hurriedly put the letter back in its place, turned around and rushed to the prison of the Criminal Department.
Above the feast of the imperial palace, fireworks rose one after another, reflecting the entire sky in all colors.
Xing Zilu at the table also understood that his life was over, but it was a pity that he had not learned the news of Emperor Shengji Junxian from Tianze's mouth.
"Ji Yuqi, can you tell the old man, where is the Emperor Sage right now?"
Ji Yuqi didn't dwell on the word 'Emperor Saint', after all, the person in front of him was already dying, and it didn't make any sense, so he got up and said, "Do you know his traces, what's the use?"
Xing Zilu shook his head: "It's useless, in fact, I just want to feel at ease." ”
"Peace of mind?" Ji Yuqi sneered: "This saint is still difficult to rest assured, what qualifications do you have!"
Xing Zilu looked up to the sky and sighed: "Yes! There is no chance in this life, in the past nearly a thousand years, too many lives have been buried under his hands, and they have gone to hell, either falling into evil ghosts, or reincarnating as animals, suffering! ”
Xing Zilu raised the wine jug and drank with his head up, but a string of hot tears flowed from the corners of his eyes and dripped on his robe.
Ning Fangzhe said indifferently: "It turns out that you also hate Ji Junxian who abandoned us. ”
Xing Zilu didn't answer, just frantically poured wine, jumped off the table without looking, and fell to the ground.
"Monarchs and ministers are of one heart!"
Xing Zilu looked up to the sky and smiled, constantly repeating these four words, and then dipped his hands in wine, carefully groomed his hair, and arranged his clothes, this is the last integrity before death, even if he dies, he must be majestic.
"Come on!"
Xing Zilu shouted without looking back, and then stepped out step by step.
As soon as he stepped out of the ground, one of the guards slashed diagonally, and with one slash, he cut a scar that pierced through his back, and gurgling blood forced the wound to flow out.
But even so, Xing Zilu only frowned slightly, and still took the second step with tenacity.
"Come on!"
Swish!
Another sharp knife, the bloody wound pierced Xing Zilu's back from the other direction.
Xing Zilu still didn't want to stop, and stepped out step by step, even if his back had been cut open, his eyes were still firm.
Three-step, four-step, five-step......
When Xing Zilu took the tenth step, a knife glowing with cold light swept through his neck like a cool breeze, and his right foot hung in the air, but he couldn't step on it anymore.
"Bang!"
A round, blood-colored human head rolled to the ground, and his eyes blinked slightly, and finally slowly closed his eyes. All that remained was a headless corpse standing silently on one leg.
In this way, Xing Zilu, the secretary of the criminal department who had been loyal all his life, died, and he did not know the news of Ji Junxian when he was dying.
Maybe just like his closed eyes, maybe he was also disappointed in Ji Junxian.
At this time, Lin Jixian walked out and said respectfully to Ji Yuqi: "Emperor Sheng, can you hand over Xing Zilu's body to your subordinates to dispose of?"
Ji Yuqi pondered a little and said, "Lin Jixian listens to the order!"
"Minister, listen to the order!"
"This emperor ordered you to hang your body outside the imperial capital!"
Lin Jixian was stunned and did not answer.
Ji Yuqi snorted coldly: "Lin Jixian, what are you still thinking about before this saint?"
Lin Jixian returned to his senses and hurriedly said respectfully: "Jixian obeys the order!"
Ji Yuqi nodded: "Let's go down!" After saying that, he left with Mo Bufan and the others in the audience.
After Ji Yuqi left, Ning Fangzhe looked at Lin Jixian and said, "Jixian, do you know how dangerous your words are?"
Lin Jixian nodded: "Xia Guan understands that it is a capital crime to keep the whole body for the traitor. ”
Ning Fangzhe shook his head helplessly, put his hand on Lin Jixian's shoulder, and said, "Remember, in the future, Zhongshenzhou will no longer be the world of Ji Junxian, but the current emperor." Then he waved his hand and said: "That's it, don't mention the negative Ji Junxian, you go and deal with the matter that the emperor has explained." ”
"Yes. ”

With the end of the feast in the imperial palace, countless officials and performers also began to leave the palace.
At this time, Tian Ze had already been taken out of the prison of the Criminal Department, and under the pretext of being summoned by Ji Yuqi, Zhao Er and Zhao San were taken out, and now they had arrived at the place where they left the palace.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, all the officials finally left, and at this time, Tianze took Zhao Er and Zhao San forward.
Tian Ze led Zhao Er and Zhao San, who were wearing linen robes and hoods, and walked out as if nothing happened, hoping to get through with their identities, but they were finally stopped.
The official who guarded the door and recorded got up to stop Tian Ze and said, "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, please wait a moment, I don't know who the two people behind you are?" ”
Tian Ze turned around and said coldly, "Does this chief still want to report to you?"
The registrar immediately knelt down and said with difficulty: "Your Excellency, this is also the meaning of the villain, and please don't embarrass the villain." ”
Tian Ze looked at the registrar coldly, pondered for a while, and said, "Let's get up." ”
"Mr. Xie, please give your names. ”
Tian Ze preemptively said: "Gong Xian." ”
When the registrar heard this, he found the name of Gong Xian in the corner of a page, although he wondered why there was only one name but no other information, but he always pressed his curiosity and crossed out this name, after all, his duty was to be one person to let go, and as for other aspects, he turned a blind eye.
"What about the other one?"
Tian Ze replied: "It's still a palace offering." ”
When the registrar heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "This ......"
Seeing this, Tian Ze lifted the hoods of Zhao Er and Zhao San, revealing exactly the same faces, and explained: "This person's name is Gong Xian, and he is the person who was invited to perform the trick of the incarnation outside the body for the Emperor Sheng, and this is his secret, because of this, it is so mysterious, do you understand?"
The registrar suddenly realized: "The incarnation outside the body is just a twin!"
Hearing this, Tian Ze hurriedly made a silent gesture, and after looking around, he threw out a top-grade spirit stone and said: "This will divide some of the benefits in the middle among you, remember, keep your mouth tight!"
The registrar took the best spirit stone, hurriedly put it into his cuffs, and said with a smile: "The little one understands! The little one understands! Adult, please!"
Tian Ze nodded, and hurriedly took Zhao Er and Zhao San out of the imperial palace.
Since the gate of the imperial capital had been closed at this time, Tian Ze and the others had to temporarily live in the broken temple of the single brothers, and leave the imperial capital early the next morning.

Late at night, in the Miaofeng Hall of the Imperial Palace, a letter was being written in front of the table, and suddenly, the wolf in his hand slammed and picked up a book to cover the paper.
"Squeak......
There was a hoarse knock on the door, and he saw a faceless black-robed man walk in and close the door.
Ji Yuqi was not surprised by this person's arrival, and seemed to have expected a guest to visit this night.
"You're here. ”
The black-robed man stood quietly in front of Ji Yuqi, and said in a gloomy voice: "How are things going?"
Ji Yuqi lightly touched his forehead and said, "All the big and small officials in the imperial capital have been subdued, and there must be no more variables." It's just that there are people in other places who are easy to resist, and it should take some days. ”
The black-robed man nodded: "Speed up, conquer Zhongshenzhou as soon as possible, and then you can fight in all directions until you dominate the Heavenly Continent." ”
