The emperor looked at the two of them and said a little angrily: "After talking for a long time, you don't even know the specific number of people, I don't want you to say it now, I want to know how many people are still alive in the tunnels below Nanrong Mansion, and how many people have become puppets." And how many of the people who have become puppets can be saved, and how many can't be saved at all? ”

Listening to these questions, the two of them froze there, motionless. The two of them thought about the problems that the emperor was concerned about, but they had always checked a rough idea, and if they wanted to find out the specific number, they had to go to the tunnels of Nanrong Mansion in person. There was a lot of danger in there, and they didn't even know where the entrance was.

Nan Rongzhi looked at Xian Yurui, frowned tightly and said helplessly: "Your Highness, we have long wanted to enter that tunnel and find out everything, but this matter is really tricky, and with Nan Rongxuan's growing power in the court, we can't help it." ”

The emperor looked at Xian Yurui and asked, "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Xian Yurui took a deep breath and said, "At the beginning, I thought it was strange that His Highness asked me to investigate the matter of missing persons, but now it seems that this plan must have started for a long time. It should have reached the final stage by now, otherwise they wouldn't need so many people. If you don't intervene in this matter, we can't control it at all. ”

For the current crisis, he can no longer care about the words of officialdom, whether the current emperor is angry or not, there are some things he must say clearly.

Nan Rongzhi next to him looked at him with some approval and said: "This is indeed the case, our ability is only to investigate a rough idea, such a thing may not be effective even if we have tens of thousands of elite soldiers, not to mention that we don't have many people in our hands at all." ”

The emperor's brows furrowed tightly, he couldn't believe it, how could the whole thing suddenly turn back like this, it was just a simple case of missing people, he always felt that at most, he couldn't investigate anything, at most, those who disappeared all died in vain. But now it seems that the whole thing is not that simple.

According to what Nan Rongzhi Yu Xian Yu Rui said about development, Zhaoguo will soon change the dynasty. In the future, it is unknown whether the country will still be called. The emperor's brows furrowed tightly, and he said slowly with some concern:

"One of you is my friend since I was a child, and the other is a general who is loyal to my country. I have absolute trust in both of you. But now I might as well tell you that in fact, except for the Praetorian Guard, the other armies in my hands are all guarded in various places, and it is not easy to assemble them, and many of them have not been submitted to me, plus those Gu worms may not be effective even if the elite soldiers come. I really don't have any other way. ”

Listening to the emperor's sincere words, Xian Yurui and Yu Nan Rongzhi glanced at each other and did not say anything. Although it is not easy to know that the emperor is not easy, it is useless to say more now, after all, they can't solve this problem at all.

The emperor turned around and walked two steps, turned around again and came back and continued: "Otherwise, we will abandon all the missing people, and burn all the subordinates of all the people, whether it is the people or Nan Rongxuan, with ** and fire." In this way, at least the people in the capital can be preserved, and the foundation of the summoning country can be saved. ”

Nan Rongzhi's brows were tightly twisted, and he nodded and said: "What His Highness said can be regarded as a way, if this is the case, I am afraid that the people who are still alive in the tunnel will not have the possibility of survival, and there is one more thing, if those puppets are not burned out, once the Gu worms lose their parasitic bodies, they will look for the next host again, and then I am afraid that more people will be involved in this matter." “

Xian Yurui followed and said: "And in the center of the tunnel is Nanrong Mansion, next to Nanrong Mansion and the mansions of various adults are next to each other, if the fire control is not good after this explosion, it will also be a very tricky thing." ”

The emperor said thoughtfully: "Not only that, if we notify the other people to move out of Nanrong Mansion, Nan Rongxuan will definitely be aware of it, and will definitely prepare in advance, if we don't do any evacuation and start exploding, the entire Nanrong Mansion will disappear." There are other people who may disappear. So if we do want to do that, we need to plan it well. ”

After all the problems came out, the emperor had an even more headache. He sighed and said, "Okay, I'm afraid this matter won't be solved at all for a while, so you might as well go back first, and you come back tomorrow, and we'll discuss countermeasures again." During this period, you must send someone to pay close attention to Nan Rongxuan's movements. There is another very important thing, Xian Yurui, after you go back, put Nan Rong Qianluo under house arrest, or you can let her enter the palace directly, we have to guard against Nan Rongxuan. ”

"Your Highness, but Qianluo doesn't know about this matter at all, I don't think it's necessary to involve a woman, right?"

Seeing Xian Yurui's worry, Nan Rongzhi immediately followed: "This matter is still up to the emperor, after all, Nan Rongqian is Nan Rongxuan's weakness." We need to take advantage of that. Even if it's a little thing she did for the people in the capital. ”

When he wanted to say something, Nan Rongzhi touched his arm, and he stopped saying anything. The emperor waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's do it like this first." ”

Coming out of the palace. When the two of them returned to Nan Rongzhi's mansion in a carriage, they saw several people kneeling at the door. Curious, they got out of the carriage and asked the guard next to them, "What the hell is going on?" Why are they kneeling here at such a late hour, is there something going on? ”

The guard immediately saluted and said, "Master Qiqi, these people are here to ask for help. It is said that their man was captured by an unknown object, and only one person fled into the capital, but that person also seems to be delirious now. You can ask those people about the situation, and there is only so much to know below. ”

When the people saw Nan Rongzhi, they gathered around and cried and said, "My lord! You must save our shopkeeper, who came back from working in the city at night and did not know what had caught him, and he has not been home until now. He is the only laborer in our family, with old people and children waiting to be fed. You'll have to help us......"

As she spoke, tears streamed down the woman's cheeks. The other women and the old man also gathered around. Xian Yurui was also stunned when he saw this scene, they didn't expect that someone would disappear again so soon.

Nan Rongzhi frowned and asked, "When did this happen?" Isn't there another survivor? Bring him here, and I'm going to ask him something......" (To be continued.) )
