Chapter 111: Intimidation
Zhehuai and Zheyuan sneaked into the palace of Emperor Daqiang. There were a lot of guards and palace maids standing at the door, so the two chose to use the drug to put down the people standing outside first, and then blow the smoke in through the crack in the door.
After waiting for a while, after making sure that everyone inside is asleep, you can enter it openly.
The place where Emperor Daqiang slept needed to go around several times, and the drugs put by the two people would not reach that place. However, because the emperor was afraid of being assassinated in his sleep, he made the palace ladies not enter without his permission.
This gave Zhehuai Zheyuan an opportunity to take advantage of. The sound of the palace maid falling to the ground outside alarmed the emperor, who was already shallow in sleep, and he opened his eyes in a little panic, and called a few times but no one came.
Something must be wrong, something must have happened. As soon as Emperor Daqiang wanted to go out to take a look in person, he saw two figures walking in, and their figures did not look like the palace maids he was familiar with.
"Who are you two and how did you get in?" Emperor Daqiang retreated behind the curtain of the bed.
Zhehuai Zheyuan didn't speak, and walked towards Emperor Daqiang step by step.
"Come on, come on, get them both for me." The Emperor cried out in panic, but no one answered.
Zhehuai stepped forward and couldn't help but say, and a hand knife slashed at the back of the emperor's head. Before the emperor could finish his next sentence, he fell softly.
Zheyuan said: "The place where the emperor sleeps is so deep, it gives us convenience." Even if he shouted loudly here, it would not be easy for people outside the dormitory to hear. ”
Jiang Luoan and Su Chenyu walked around the palace for a while, although it was late at night, the guards inside were still working dutifully.
When they came to the door of the emperor's bedroom, they saw the guards and maids lying on the ground. If they were to fall to the ground like this, the guards who would come over to patrol would surely notice that something was wrong.
The two of them used a little spell together, and the guards stood straight in their original positions. Although they were still unconscious with their eyes closed, it was so dark at night that they could not be noticed as long as no one came up to talk to them.
After doing all this, the two of them entered the dormitory.
It's not enough to hold the Daqiang Emperor back, it's also important to get the jade seal of Daqiang's Zhenguo. Jiang Luoan thought about going to the study again, but he didn't expect that the emperor would correct the folds in the dormitory tonight, and the jade seal was also moved here.
Now that the people and the jade seal are in hand, the four of them called back Wen Zhao, who was patrolling outside, and the five of them took the emperor who had changed into a set of black clothes, avoided the guards in the palace, and returned to the abandoned palace.
It's still the old rule, and the others enter Jiang Luoan's bracelet first. In an instant, Jiang Luoan returned to the picture scroll, and the banyan tree spirit was sitting under the tree with her chin in her hand, looking at her with a smile.
"How's that, it's fast enough, isn't it? Don't forget the fairy grass that you promised me to plant. After emphasizing it again, the banyan spirit returned to his original body.
After coming out of the picture scroll, Jiang Luoan released several other people and found a place to rest.
Early the next morning, Emperor Daqiang opened his eyes in a daze, but what caught his eye was not the gorgeous bed curtain in the past, but the simple plain white bed curtain.
Which subordinate changed me, did you want to curse me to death in such a vain? Emperor Daqiang was about to scold, when the two figures from last night suddenly flashed in his mind.
He sat up suddenly, if he remembered correctly, he was knocked unconscious by those two people, so where is it now?
Emperor Daqiang looked around and felt that this should be an inn. He put on his clothes to cover his face, opened the door and wanted to leave.
When the door opened, he met Zhehuai's smiling face.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, how did you sleep last night, are you still used to living in Weiyan?" Ignoring the shocked expression on the emperor's face, Zhehuai walked into the room as he spoke, forcing Emperor Daqiang back into the room step by step.
Zheyuan followed him in, silently closed the door, and plugged in the deadbolt.
The moment the door was closed, Emperor Daqiang finally couldn't hold back the calm look on his face, "Wei Yan, this is Wei Yan?" It was the two of you who knocked me unconscious last night, who sent you here? ”
Emperor Daqiang also knew that he had many enemies, but he never thought that he would be brought to Weiyan by his enemies. You must know that the two places are far apart, and judging by the level of hunger in your belly, it must have only been one night.
Zhehuai smiled and didn't answer, "His Majesty the Emperor thinks whoever it is." But none of that matters, isn't Your Majesty worried about what we're doing to you, like cutting off a few of your fingers for a city or two. ”
Emperor Daqiang's mind turned quickly, and it was impossible for the two of them alone to bring themselves to Weiyan in such a short period of time. But if they didn't take themselves away from Daqiang, but found a random inn to trick themselves, then everything made sense.
He replied with a forced composure, "Oh, yes, I didn't think I would end up like this one day. ”
Zhehuai stepped forward, "But there is another way for His Majesty to leave here and return to the palace." Old Emperor Wei Yan, do you still remember, if you two do something unsightly in private, as long as you say it all, I will let you go back immediately. ”
Only then did Emperor Daqiang realize what he had been arrested for here. But if you are threatened with a few words and say everything you have done, wouldn't it be easy for the person in front of you to make even more excessive demands?
He said, "What are you talking about, I don't know. ”
Zheyuan also came over and wanted to say something, Jiang Luoan and Su Chenyu came first.
"How?" She looked at Zhehuai.
Zhehuai shook his head and signaled that he didn't say anything.
Jiang Luoan took out a piece of something wrapped in yellow cloth from his arms, and when he opened it, inside was Daqiang's Zhenguo jade seal.
Emperor Daqiang didn't expect them to even take this, and couldn't help but glance at Jiang Luoan with resentment.
Jiang Luoan held the jade seal and shook it in front of him, "Don't you want to say it?" Don't you want this thing? ”
Emperor Daqiang's gaze flickered a few times with the jade seal. This Zhenguo jade seal with the word "Zhenguo" is not to say good, the jade seal is spiritual, if it is really ruined by these people in front of him, he, the emperor, can be regarded as the end.
He was silent for too long, and as soon as Jiang Luo'an's hand holding the jade seal was released, the jade seal slammed into the table.
Emperor Daqiang hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but it was too late, and the jade seal was still broken by a small corner.
"If you don't say it again, there will be more than this corner broken next time." Jiang Luoan looked at him expressionlessly.
He gritted his teeth and admitted, "It was indeed me who did it." One day, the old emperor Wei Yan suddenly sent a message to me, asking me if there was any poison that could make people lose their minds but not die, and after thinking about it, I told him that there was a kind of Gu poison that could. He promised to use a lot of treasures in exchange for that kind of Gu poison, and I was afraid that he wouldn't use it when he got it, so he simply sent a messenger to go. ”
Jiang Luoan sneered, "You are a caring person, and I almost taught him to use it by hand." ”
Emperor Daqiang lowered his head, "To this day, I don't know what he did with that Gu poison, and he hasn't sent anyone to send me a message after that." ”
Fortunately, the Gu poison sent by Emperor Daqiang is indeed not fatal, and it is very simple to solve, and the price of this Gu poison in Daqiang is not very high. However, he shouldn't have told Emperor Wei Yan this, which can be regarded as a trick on him.
Knowing what was going on, Jiang Luoan had no intention of looking for him to settle accounts. She once again stunned Emperor Daqiang in his frightened eyes and brought him to the picture scroll.
"Please throw him back, as long as it's Daqiang, it doesn't matter where it is." When she entered, the banyan tree spirit was waiting for her fairy grass, Jiang Luoan said while planting his own collection of high-grade fairy grass for him.
The banyan tree spirit had no objection, and when he saw that the fairy grass was about to arrive, he happily sent the person over.
After doing this, Zhehuai opened his mouth to ask for payment.
"You promised me some good then, and now it's time to do it." Zhe Huaiman thought that he would get a good spiritual weapon like the last time, but Jiang Luoan only took out a few fairy grasses and handed them to him.
"Why is there only that, and there are no spiritual weapons?" Zhehuai looked at her with some dissatisfaction.
Jiang Luoan glanced at him, "You are embarrassed to say, you also know what you took from me last time." Help me this time I promised you some payment, but I didn't say anything. ”
Zhehuai knew that he was at a loss, so he didn't reply.
The last time he got something, it was indeed a high-grade spiritual weapon, a very rare kind. He also wondered how Jiang Luoan could give himself such a good thing so easily.
Later, I thought about it, it must have been that she didn't know what this spiritual weapon could do at that time.
This time I promised to come over to help her, and I also had a little bit of caution about whether I could pick up the leaks, but I didn't expect Jiang Luoan to still know what he gave him last time, and this time it was not so easy to give it up.
These fairy grasses are of extraordinary quality, but the year is shorter, but they are also very good.
Zhehuai took his things and went back, he hadn't been to the underground store for a long time, and now he had to go there for a turn.
Zheyuan didn't go back with him, and he stayed here with Jiang Luoan.
When Jiang Luoan was left alone in the room, he said, "I came to you this time to tell you that I have learned the whereabouts of the next jade seal." The jade seal is in the fallen abyss, and I found someone who has been there and drew a map, which should be of some use. ”
He handed the map to Jiang Luo'an, "Although I have the map, I don't know how long it will take to find the jade seal." I haven't been able to pull away lately, and I don't have to worry about letting others take the map, so I'll just leave it to you. ”
Jiang Luoan unfolded the map and roughly scanned it, only to see that the jungle, rivers and other places were clearly marked on it.
She closed the map, "Okay, I'll head to this forest when I send my father back." ”
After taking the pill sent by Jiang Luo'an, Jiang Aotian felt that he had recovered a lot. His injuries have not been completely healed, and the alchemist Su Chenyu found only helped him roughly recover his cultivation, but there are still some old injuries that hinder his cultivation improvement.
However, after this trip to Wei Yan, his remaining injuries are not a big problem.
Jiang Luoan gave his father's body a comprehensive examination before leaving, and found that it was much better.
The next day, the group was going to leave for Longchen.
Su Chenyu packed his things early and prepared the carriage. When Jiang Aotian came out, he had been standing there and waiting for a long time.
A few people got into the carriage and returned to Longchen Country in a mighty way.
The results of several people in the battle have already been transmitted back to China, and for Long Chen, who has not achieved anything in this event for many years, their success this time is greatly inspiring.
The Emperor himself also came to greet them. Not long after entering the capital, someone came to report that the emperor was already here.
He came here not only to greet this group, but also to bring Su Chenyu back alone.
When the prince left without a sound, when a minister mentioned the prince's unruly behavior, the emperor prevaricated with the excuse that he had let him go.
The father and son have been separated for so long, and he also misses it a little.
But Su Chenyu didn't want to go back so soon, he wanted to go to the General's Mansion first, and he had something important to discuss with Jiang Luoan.
