On the fourth day, Yuwen Shihong confirmed that there were indeed no assassins on the other side of the river, and only after ambushing did he dare to go back in the direction of the imperial city.

When returning to the palace by boat, Yuwen Shihong felt that his internal strength had improved a lot in the past few days, and his body was much lighter, and he faintly felt a sense of entry.

This trip is barely without gain!

When I returned to the Imperial City, there were already many guards searching around the Imperial City.

Since Yuwen Shihong disappeared, the Northern Zhou Dynasty fell into great grief, and the guards in the palace had no intention of being on duty.

Yu Wenhao cried even more, and in anger, he ordered all the guards to launch a carpet search, and they must find the emperor's body!

Liang Shiyan, a military general, even drew his sword and stood up, if it weren't for Wang Mao to stop him, he couldn't wait to directly find the lair of the people in the martial arts rivers and lakes and destroy them all!

When Yuwen Shihong and the others went back, their clothes were already in tatters, and they looked like they had long lost the majesty of the emperor, but looked like a little beggar who came from nowhere.

The Imperial City guards stopped them for interrogation.

"Who are you? Why is it here?! ”

It is natural that they don't know Yuwen Shihong, after all, there are thousands of guards in the imperial city, and not every one of them has the opportunity to meet Yuwen Shihong himself.

Yuwen Shihong said: "You send someone to inform the regent Yuwen Hao, and say that I am back." ”

The guards were suddenly shocked, although they still didn't dare to confirm it, but these days the emperor has been looking for Yuwen Shihong inside and outside the dynasty, and there has been no news, and finally there is a news, how to say it is also a good thing!

"Wait a minute, I'll go tell you!"

The guards bowed their hands respectfully, and then hurriedly ran back.

The rest took Yuwen Shihong and others to the palace, and at this time, the ministers were waiting in the Xuanzheng Hall for news, and Yuwenhao was naturally no exception.

Of course, the guards of the Xuanzheng Hall knew Yuwen Shihong, and when they saw him, they were overjoyed, and immediately knelt down and saluted!

"See the Emperor! Welcome the emperor's safe return! ”

There was joy on their faces that they couldn't hide, you must know that they had crossed over from Yuwen Shihong, and they had already impressed these guards with their true skills!

They were all convinced by Yuwen Shihong from the bottom of their hearts, he was able to come back safely, and the guards were also very happy!

"Your Majesty, I'll go and tell the Lord Regent and the ministers now!"

The guards reacted quickly, and some of them rushed inside, and they couldn't help but shout with joy.

"Lord Regent, the emperor is back alive!"

Almost in the time of a breath, there was a sudden uproar in the Xuanzheng Palace, followed by the regent Yu Wenhao and a group of ministers hurriedly running out.

The moment they saw Yuwen Shihong, everyone's eyes suddenly turned red!

Yuwen Hao rushed out and grabbed Yuwen Shihong's shoulders tightly, and the tears of the seven-foot strong man fell directly.

"Great, great! Hong'er, it's great that you're okay! ”

Yuwen Shihong's heart couldn't help but be slightly touched, and his eyes were red and he hugged Yuwen Hao tightly.

"Uncle Huang, my nephew has worried you!"

Liang Shiyan and other ministers watched from the sidelines, and they couldn't stop wiping their tears, and the joy on their faces couldn't be hidden.

After a long time, Yuwen Hao let go of Yuwen Shihong, patted him on the shoulder, and looked him up and down.

"Hong'er, you have suffered in the past few days, if the guards find you earlier!"

Yuwen Shihong took a deep breath, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes when he heard the words.

"Uncle Huang, let's not talk about this matter for the time being, my nephew will definitely not let go of those bold assassins this time, if it weren't for these two powerful guards newly recruited by me, I'm afraid I would have planted here this time!"

This near-death experience made Yuwen Shihong's heart rise with indescribable anger, especially when he was forced into such a desperate situation.

It was a feeling that had not been brought to him by several previous assassinations.

The eunuchs came up and took Yuwen Shihong back to the apse to wash and change into a brand new dragon robe, and after cleaning up, he immediately summoned the ministers to the Xuanzheng Palace to discuss matters.

Wei Tiantian and Wei Qi were personally brought by Wei Zhong to Imperial Doctor Chen, although Wei Qi's toxin was resolved, but the wound was still there and needed further treatment.

And although Wei Tiantian is strong in martial arts, she is still young after all, and this incident hit her very hard, and she lost her luster in her round apricot eyes.

Yuwen Shihong sighed in his heart but was helpless, after all, it was they who made the decision to become the secret guard of the emperor's side, although they were facing a crisis at this time, he had already reminded him, and it could be regarded as benevolence and righteousness.

In the court, the ministers gathered and everyone was relieved to see Yuwen Shihong come out safe and sound.

The ministers who have been tormented by the fear and sorrow of the past few days will not be able to swallow their eclipses.

If the emperor really died, it would be a huge blow to the entire Northern Zhou!

Yuwen Shihong, who was sitting on the dragon chair, pinched the corners of his eyes, and looked a little irritable.

"What have you Aiqing done in the few days that I am away?"

The ministers looked at each other, and their expressions were a little stunned.

Yuwen Shihong sighed and asked again.

"What do you have to say about my assassination? Or can anyone find any clues? ”

The ministers turned pale when they heard this, and then knelt down in unison.

"The emperor forgives his sins!"

Seeing this, Yuwen Shihong basically counted it in his heart, and it seemed that he hadn't found out anything.

I don't know if they have been busy crying and mourning these days, and they can waste to this point!

Although he scolded angrily in his heart, Yuwen Shihong also knew that the ministers could not be blamed for this matter anyway.

Thinking of this, Yuwen Shihong waved his hand.

"Get up, I'll look into this myself!"

The ministers became even more panicked, especially Qin Kun and Changsun Hong, whose heads were already low to the ground, and they couldn't wait to dig a pit and bury themselves directly!

It's really a shame that the emperor has been in crisis under their guards several times, and the two of them don't have to do the position of the chief of the guard in the palace!

Yuwen Shihong's face was a little colder again, he tried hard to suppress the tyranny in his heart, and said coldly.

"What, you can't afford it at this time, are you waiting for me to apologize to you personally and ask you to get up?!"

The ministers stood up in panic and did not dare to kneel anymore.

Yuwen Shihong took another deep breath.

"Well, the nature of the assassin's affairs this time is too bad, I hope there won't be a next time!"

"Eldest Sun Hong, Qin Kun! Replace the guards of the palace with the strongest elites, and increase the number of them, so be sure to guard them to the death! ”

The eldest grandson Hong and Qin Kun immediately walked out and arched their hands.

"Yes!"
