Volume 1 Dragon Death Chapter 35 Behind the Rebellion

Seeing Ye Gu put away his sword and asked again, Luo Sijie did not maintain a salute anymore, but stood up.

"You guys, come out first. Luo Sijie shouted around, and soon, in this not-so-bright space, several people wearing the costumes of the soldiers of the Fire Empire appeared behind Luo Sijie.

"My lord, they are all Imperial soldiers from Guli Town, and they will tell you the details. Luo Sijie said, stepping aside, and immediately after, a soldier stepped forward and gave Ye Gu the military salute of the Flame Empire.

"Let's talk about it first. ”

"Yes, General. But take a look at this first. The soldier said, taking something out of his body and handing it to Yegu.

"This is the defense map of Guli Town, and you have this thing. Ye Gu asked.

"This was obtained from the ruling body, and when we went, it was placed on the table of Wu Li, the ruling of Guli Town. The soldier said, pointing to a place on the map again.

Ye Gu looked in the direction pointed by the soldier, and saw a place, which was clearly marked in red. And the place that was marked was the train platform in the town of Guli.

"So, it was Wu Li, the ruler of Guli Town, who rebelled?" Ye Gu continued to ask.

The soldier nodded, then stepped aside.

Seeing this, Ye Gu finally cleared up some thoughts. From encountering the masked man on the platform, to being chased into the town by them, and then into this underground space, Yegu has clearly become the party being used. But what he doesn't understand is what people who use his abilities, or who take advantage of his position, want to get, or ......

Thinking of this, Ye Gu's heart suddenly burst into a terrible thought, this thought came out of his brain, and he said it directly through his mouth: "Are the Nandu Luo family and Gu Lizhen in power watching the dragon?"

Although Ye Gu's voice was small, it was very close after all, and everyone present could hear it very clearly. Luo Sijie, on the other hand, had a surprised expression, she never thought that Ye Gu would be able to guess that it was related to dragons.

"It seems that you all know, so I won't hide it anymore. With that, Luo Sijie walked in front of Ye Gu. At the same time, he looked at the statue of Yan Jun again and continued.

"We, the Nandu Luo family, have been following Yanjun since the beginning of the war five hundred years ago. Therefore, the southern capital of the empire, as well as the large area south of the southern capital, from the very beginning, were mixed with our forces. During the heyday of our family, from the imperial capital, to the west, to the sea, basically every province of the empire had our rulers. However, since the rise of the Lin family, we have begun to decline. Since the accession of the little emperor to the throne three years ago, we have been in power in the empire except for the southern capital, and there are very few provinces left. But even so, we remained loyal to the Empire. Luo Sijie said, revealing a trace of sadness from her face, this sadness, it is not difficult to see that it is sadness for the family.

"The Empire has never questioned your loyalty. Ye Gu said.

"Yes, I know. So, just twenty years ago, my family entered the city of Tanihama and started building everything here. Your Excellency, the underground you see is our credit. Luo Sijie said, and at the same time, took out an object in her hand.

Luo Sijie then threw the object to the top of the underground space. Suddenly, in this space, a bright light came from overhead, and with this bright light, the torches on every wall of this underground space were also lit at the same time. In an instant, from top to bottom, the whole picture of the underground space was displayed in front of Ye Gu.

Because the purple light was too faint just now, Ye Gu didn't see too many details clearly, and after being completely illuminated here, Ye Gu found that not far from him was a river, an underground river.

"So, you built these underground so that you could evacuate here at any time, or did you want to escape from these rebels?" Seeing this, Ye Gu couldn't help but ask.

Luo Sijie nodded and continued: "That's right. You may not know that twenty years ago, a rebellion broke out in Guli Town, and this rebellion was none other than the emperor's own brother, Yan Zhao. ”

"Yan Zhao, is he the son of Yan Wu, the leader of the Suppression Army, the strongest army in the empire at that time?" Ye Gu asked, obviously he couldn't help it, this person was connected with Gu Lizhen.

"That's right, my lord," Luo Sijie paused, and then continued, "Externally, both the imperial capital and the southern capital claim that he died of illness, but in fact, he was executed. ”

"Executed?"

"Yes. He was executed by order of the emperor at the time for inciting rebellions in the cities of Gubin and Jiangfu twenty years earlier. Moreover, the place of execution was in the town of Guli. As for why I chose this place, I think it is probably because it is isolated from the world and surrounded by mountains on three sides, so it is the most suitable place to block news. Luo Sijie said, and at the same time looked at Ye Gu.

But Ye Gu's expression has always been very steady, after all, hearing this, most things he has not experienced, and they have nothing to do with him, so naturally he does not have too much emotion.

Seeing that Ye Gu didn't react, Luo Sijie sighed inwardly and continued: "After executing Yan Zhao, we found out that the Lin family and Yan Zhao exchanged letters in many places. However, due to the strength of their family, we have never had a chance to report it. Therefore, we have no choice but to retreat to the next best thing, infiltrate our forces in the town closest to Tanihama City, the core of their sphere of influence, and start building facilities. It wasn't until four months ago that we got a letter from the Lin family. ”

"The letter of the Lin family?" Hearing this, Ye Gu began to be a little interested, after all, the Lin family is currently the largest family in the empire, and their every move is related to the empire and Ye Gu himself.

"That's right, and besides, there are two things mentioned in the letter. First, His Majesty the Emperor hoped to rely on Long Qing to obtain the power of the dragon, and second, the Lin family hoped to provoke a rebellion in Guli Town to attract the attention of the Emperor and thus stop His Majesty during Long Qing. ”

"So, after receiving the letter, your Luo family decided to cooperate with the Lin family to act in order to prevent the emperor from using the power of the dragon clan?" Ye Gu asked, and Luo Sijie, who was in front of him, nodded.

However, at this moment, Ye Gu's face became surprisingly ugly, although their purpose was the same, if things developed like this, none of them would succeed.

Do you know that I was secretly ordered by His Majesty to take Ye Mingyuan back to the imperial capital. When I return to the imperial capital, I will find the Lin family, and when the time comes, using Ye Mingyuan and the Dragon Realm Stone in his hands will be enough to destroy His Majesty's plan. You don't know Ye Mingyuan, and you have to make a rebellion in one more move, you know, once your people provoke him, you don't need Your Majesty to borrow the power of the Dragon Clan, the power of the Dragon Realm Stone in his hand is enough to disturb half of the empire!" Ye Gu said, pulling out his sword again, and slamming it into the ground, he used this to express his anger in his heart.

"My lord, we really don't know what's going on. In that case, I will send someone to find it now. Luo Sijie said, and then turned her head to the soldiers beside her and ordered: "You guys, go up and join the people above immediately, they should have seen Lord Ye Mingyuan, follow them to find it." ”

"Yes, miss. After receiving Luo Sijie's order, the soldiers immediately disappeared and ran towards the ground.

"You, take me to the Guli Town Governing Office first, and I'm going to find Wu Li. Ye Gu said, putting away the sword in his hand.
