Chapter 179: The Crisis Begins

Lin Chunxi's heart was shocked after hearing this, although he knew that things would come to this point, but there was still a sense of fetters in his heart, although Ao Kui was the person of Shenjian Villa, but he was actually very sincere, and there was never anything to hide, even if he wanted to make a move, he still maintained as much as possible, maybe he knew that the path chosen by Shenjian Villa was too gambling, as a gang, it was understandable to rely on the imperial court, but choosing to follow Li Shanyuan on this adventurous road, maybe the ending was not as perfect as imagined, but this is also the sadness of being a Jianghu sect, no matter how prosperous and powerfulBut its superficial prosperity is still shrouded by the power of the regime, and the people of the rivers and lakes have no right to choose the life they want, and they will be under the control of Beirao Zheng for the rest of their lives

Ao Kui understands this truth, and Ao Jian also understands, but they have no room to choose, if they resist Li Shanyuan's invitation, I am afraid that the Divine Sword Villa has been trampled by Wu Guotie at this time, and there is no need to use force to live, just suppressing the industry of the Divine Sword Villa is enough to make this Jianghu sect collapse, and their hostile forces can take advantage of the void, so the invitation issued by Li Shanyuan is actually more terrifying than the order, and they can't refuse at all, and it is precisely because of this that the Divine Sword Villa will send Proud Sword to deal with this matter, as the future heir of the Divine Sword Villa, he has to face these。

Lin Chunxi understood Aokui's distress, and then faintly heard the footsteps of the pursuers, time was pressing, Lin Chunxi had no choice but to salute Aokui, and then took a few other junior disciples and quickly ran towards the direction of the street. Aokui watched them leave the alley, shook his head, and then Aokui's body shook and disappeared into the alley

At this time, the chasers of the prince's mansion behind him had already caught up, but seeing that Lin Chunxi and others had already gone to the street, there were already people from the Eight Princes' Mansion on the opposite side to answer, although there were no pedestrians on the street at this time, but there were many merchants and households, if they rushed up at this time and clashed with them, it would definitely spread far away, and the large-scale murder in the lack of streets in the Prince's Mansion had a bad impact and damaged the reputation of the prince, so they did not dare to continue the pursuit, but the leader of the team still assigned some people, following behind these people in the Eight Princes' Mansion, trailing all the way。

Zhu Yehong divided a few people with better skills, went to get rid of the tail that followed behind, and after Lin Chunxi was on the street, he hurriedly took them to the carriage and quickly rushed back to the Eight Princes' Mansion, along the way everyone did not talk too much, through the number of chasing soldiers behind him, and the sound of explosions in the alley just now, Zhu Yehong had already guessed that Lin Chunxi and the others had completely broken with the Prince's Mansion, I am afraid that in the future, not only them, but even those who were on the Eight Princes' Mansion, should also be more careful, and the personnel of the Prince's Mansion and Shenjian Villa will definitely not give up。

There was nothing to say all the way, they returned to the Eight Princes Mansion in high vigilance, Li Xiaoyao personally greeted them, after seeing everyone return safely, Li Xiaoyao was a little relieved, Lin Chunxi arranged for everyone to temporarily live in the Eight Princes' Mansion during this time, it is expected that even if the crown prince Li Shanyuan is strong, he will not dare to go to the Eight Princes' Mansion to make it clear that he wants people, but in the future, their actions in the capital will be restricted.

Li Xiaoyao comforted them and let them repair in the house during this time, and when the news passed, they would send them out of the city secretly, in fact, Lin Chunxi and the others knew very well in their hearts that with Li Shanyuan and Aojian's character, they would never let them leave easily, and they still had something to do in the capital, no matter from that point of view, if they didn't get rid of Lin Chunxi and the others, they would not be relieved, and because of this, the pressure in the hearts of Lin Chunxi and the others was even greater.

After a night of repairing, the next morning, Li Xiaoyao ordered Lin Chunxi to save the two children to the Yamen of the Criminal Department, and told them about the rescue process, the person in charge of the Yamen of the Criminal Department heard what happened, he was very shocked, and immediately reported the original situation to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, the old Shangshu of the Criminal Department is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, although he is old-fashioned, but he never makes friends with any forces, and he is fair and strict in his work, so although some people in the Criminal Department are not capable, but the attitude of handling the case is very correct, Lao Shangshu also has some heard, knowing that the prince Li Shanyuan has made some friends with people in the rivers and lakes, he has a great opinion on this, hindering the identity of the prince, has not said explicitly, although the people of the Eight Princes Mansion this time did not know that the prince had dealings with the people of Shenjian Villa, but with his years of experience, he can still faintly feel the subtlety, although he does not understand why the prince Li Shanyuan is linked to Shenjian Villa, but he can still faintly perceive that things are not so simple.

The Criminal Department immediately sent a large team of officials to search the City God Temple outside the city, but after arriving there, the temple had already been empty, and the City God Temple burned a nameless fire in the middle of the night last night, and burned everything in the temple cleanly.

Although the fire is very large, and after arriving in time for the Ming Dynasty, there are still a few fires that have not been extinguished, but after all, the incident happened in a hurry, and the arsonist did not have any traces of complete destruction, and he could still vaguely see the organs everywhere in the City God Temple, especially the mysterious secret room, where the other party used explosives, but some afterimages could still be vaguely seen.

What is interesting is that there is a holy decree in the imperial city, it is His Majesty the Emperor who came in and is unwell, and will no longer carry out the early dynasty, and the affairs of each ministry will be handled by themselves, and everything will be left to the prince to decide. With the issuance of this order, all the ministries of the court and the central government felt a subtle feeling, and there were many strange things in the city, but at this time, the emperor actually called himself sick and completely ignored it, so that all the ministers in the court began to have some hidden worries.

Li Xiaoyao also went to the palace to ask to see the emperor, but was politely refused to come back by the people of the Internal Affairs Office, and it was not easy for him to break into the forbidden palace, so he returned to his house with many questions, but there was an accident on the way back.

Because he was going to the palace, Li Xiaoyao didn't bring too many guards, and it happened to be white at this time, but when he passed through Taixing Street, the most prosperous street in the capital, the convoy of the Eight Princes Mansion was attacked by a mysterious master, the number of the other party was not large, but the martial arts were very strong, and the guards of the Eight Princes Mansion resisted desperately to barely resist the other party's attack, but the other party did not seem to be in a hurry to Li Xiaoyao's life, and he couldn't hit it and disappeared without a trace immediately.
