Chapter 218: Spies
The people of the Yin Yang Palace even had free access to the palace, and it was even easier to deal with them if they wanted to, so they would take the opportunity to compromise one after another and agree not to do anything to Ye Chen in the capital. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Early the next morning, after the people of the capital went out, they all found that the atmosphere in the capital, which was originally festive for the New Year, suddenly became serious, and it looked extremely deserted, and even the city gate was not opened.
Although the ordinary people in the capital didn't know what was going on, they all had experience in this kind of thing, and they didn't come out at home, quietly watching, they knew that there must be a big man behind the scenes.
It didn't take long for the news to come out of nowhere, the Fang family and the Li family had hung white flags last night, especially the head of the Li family, who was now leading people to look for people everywhere in the capital.
For a time, the entire capital was silent, and in less than half a day, the crowded capital was left with only officers and soldiers coming and going on the streets to arrest people everywhere.
But the people arrested have nothing to do with Ye Chen, but according to the country, as long as they are not the people of Qi are all taken into prison, especially the people of Qin, they are directly put on death row, and those who resist are even killed on the spot, and after half a day, hundreds of people died in vain, but even so, no one dared to come out to stop them.
"Teacher, will the emperor be dissatisfied with this?" Liu Hai, the prefect of the capital, finally couldn't help but ask.
He was single-handedly promoted by Li Zhou, so he naturally obeyed Li Zhou's words, but today, he directly imprisoned thousands of people and killed hundreds of people without a king's law.
If this is spread out, even if Emperor Qi doesn't blame them, the people of the remaining six countries will probably not easily expose this matter, and even follow their example and kill all the Qi people outside.
"Hmph, I just listened to the emperor, now that my only grandson is dead, and now he is avoiding me, what can he be dissatisfied with." Lin Zhou said.
After he knew that the Fang family had also been attacked by the Yin Yang Palace, he entered the palace with Fang Yong early in the morning to face the saint, and they were all blocked out, which was what happened now.
"Teacher, be cautious, if this is heard by someone with a heart, it will be troublesome." Bangs hurriedly glanced around, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed that no one was paying attention to it.
"Even if you are heard, bangs, how did you become so timid and scared now." Li Zhou didn't like it.
"The teacher smiled, the teacher is naturally not afraid of high power, I am different, I seem to be beautiful on the surface now, but I don't know how many people don't put me in their eyes or see me as a thorn in their eyes." Liu Haihan said with a smile.
In the eyes of outsiders, how could the dignified prefect of the capital be so miserable, but only he knows that the same prefect, in other places, although not as rich as the capital, can be a soil emperor there, as long as the relationship is good, you can sit back and relax.
But in the capital, the people of the first six ministries did not take him seriously, and the Supervision Yuan watched everything about him all the time, and in addition, if the emperor or the prime minister knew about any trouble, they would be the first to think of him.
Li Zhou glanced at Liu Hai and said, "Don't worry, with me, no one dares to do anything to you, this time the emperor asked, I will bear it." ”
"Hehe, thank you for your understanding." Bangs laughed.
Wangye's Mansion, Qi Zhan never expected that Ye Chen would really kill Fang Xing and Li An before leaving.
Although Ye Chen had mentioned this matter to him at the beginning, but now that the situation is so critical, he didn't expect Ye Chen to really succeed.
"Father, is Brother Ye really a person from the Yin Yang Palace, and did they kill yesterday's person?" Qi Hui asked.
"I don't know if Ye Chen is from the Yin Yang Palace, but the person from yesterday must have been killed by Ye Chen, and it has nothing to do with the Yin Yang Palace." Qi Zhan replied.
"Does Father know them?" After Qi Hui finished speaking, he continued to be surprised: "It can't be Brother Ye who killed someone, I heard that the two of them are heavily guarded, is Brother Ye so powerful?" ”
"I don't know about the people of the Yin Yang Palace, but they definitely don't care about the affairs of other countries easily, and they also mentioned in their letter to your imperial brother that as long as Ye Chen is safe and sound in the capital, they won't care about this matter, so it can't be them who killed people." Qi Zhan paused after speaking, and continued: "If Ye Chen really has something to do with the Yin Yang Palace, they can even enter and leave the palace freely, not to mention the Li family and the Fang family. ”
"It's still Father Mingjian, so what should we do now?" Qi Hui asked.
"We must have something to do, you go and prepare, go out and buy something today, and keep it for us for the New Year." Qi Zhan said with a smile.
"Huh? Spring festival? Qi Hui thought he had heard it wrong.
"That's right, otherwise what else do you think you can do, we've done everything we can to help, and now it's up to them to make their own creation." Qi looked into the distance and said faintly.
Outside the capital, Ye Chen and Hu Guang kept hurrying day and night, although as they expected, there were many checkpoints along the way, but because of Li Zhou's token, they left the boundary of the capital without any hindrance.
"Young master, take a rest, let's go so fast, it should be fine." Hu Guang asked from inside the carriage.
"No, this matter will definitely not be hidden for long, if they send the letter eagle to deliver the message now, we will definitely be in trouble, we must travel day and night, you hurry up and sleep." Ye Chen explained.
"Then young master, take care, I'm getting up at night and hurrying." Hu Guang also knew that the situation was not optimistic now, so he did not refuse again, and began to hurry up and fall asleep.
When they came, because there were many people and they were not in a hurry, it took about two months to get to the capital, but now Ye Chen and Hu Guang are taking turns to hurry, day and night, and the time will be more than doubled.
Hu Guang also proposed to find a groom, but was immediately rejected by Ye Chen, not to mention that his current portrait has been pasted in various state capitals along the way, and there will be a danger of being discovered at any time, even if it is not easy to find a groom who is willing to run such a long distance, it is better to come in person It is more reassuring.
On the second day of the search and arrest operation in the capital, Emperor Qi finally issued a holy decree to let Liu Hai release those prisoners who were pressed into prison, and at the same time proclaimed Li Zhou to the palace.
"Li Zhou, you are so bold, you actually used the power in your hands to kill innocents without authorization, and did you take me in your eyes." Emperor Qi sat on the dragon chair and looked at Li Zhou.
"Emperor Mingjian, the minister came to the palace yesterday, but the emperor was unwell at that time, so he didn't see it, and the minister did not kill innocents indiscriminately this time, but in order to catch the spy of the enemy country, he made this decision." Li Zhou said unhurriedly.
