Ju Chi was a guard in King Stone's palace, and as a descendant of the royal family, he was trusted by the king, and perhaps the only person he could trust.

Standing in the silence of the night, he remembered what His Majesty had said in earnest a few months ago.

"Juchi, I'm not speaking to you as a king, but as a brother of the same kind, asking for your help. You also know that the royal family is in the most dangerous moment, the slightest carelessness will lead to annihilation, I entrust the royal family, but also the entire stone country, the most important person to you to protect, I hope you keep a wisp of blood in the direct line of the Ju family. ”

The "most important person" lived in the house behind him.

Like the ordinary people of Xiaoyaohai, Ju Chi also felt the drastic changes in the environment, the five countries of Xiaoyaohai once had a prosperous and powerful era, short-lived, only existed in people's memories, and soon all forces came one after another, at the beginning, the five countries were still able to meet the source, and slowly became to survive in the cracks.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the great powers, the five royal families even took the initiative to reduce the standing army, and finally fell to the extent of relying on the mercenaries of Jinpeng Fort to defend the country.

This is an extremely wrong strategy.

Sure enough, the power of Jinpeng Fort gradually infiltrated the five countries, and finally completely controlled the government of various countries, and implicitly wanted to abolish the king and merge the country, at this moment, the dragon king suddenly appeared without any warning in advance.

Ju Chi is a young man, not yet thirty years old, and he has a set of ideas of his own, that is, to unify the sea and concentrate the forces of the five countries, and not dare to say that he will compete with the big powers, and he must always ensure his independent status and no longer be interfered with by any forces.

As a descendant of the Shi royal family, he naturally hoped that the process of unification would be controlled by the Shi Kingdom.

Unfortunately, among the five kingdoms, Shi Guo was the weakest one, which turned his hopes into unrealistic dreams.

To the Dragon King, Juchi had mixed feelings.

There is no doubt that the dragon army he brought is an aggressor, and its wrists are even tougher than the original Jinpeng Fort, and the soldiers are widely recruited, almost all the young men of the five countries are in their pockets, and once the war is lost, the casualties are huge, and the Xiaoyao Sea area is likely to collapse.

But it was in the hands of the Dragon King that Xiaoyaohai regained his combat skills, and for the first time in decades, he had a strong military force.

Ju Chi often dreamed that the nearly 20,000 soldiers of the Five Kingdoms in the Dragon Army could be independent, under the command of the royal family, to drive out the invaders, resist Jinpeng Fort, and deter Beiting and the Central Plains.

This is a dream that needs to be carefully preserved and must not be made public, and he knows very well that the Dragon King's eyeliner is all over the Easy Sea, and the Stone King Palace is especially in the hardest-hit area.

The news of Shi Wang's future made his dream one step closer to reality.

Among the five kingdoms, only the people of the stone kingdom have a relatively high degree of support for the dragon king, and one of the most important reasons is the identity of the dragon king's concubine, everyone knows that the son of the dragon king and the princess will inherit the throne in the future, and the dragon king's control of the stone kingdom therefore has a certain legitimacy.

If the palace girl gives birth to a boy, this legitimacy will all disappear, and the dragon king will still stay here, but the support of the people will be diminished day by day.

That could be a great opportunity.

Ju Chi fully understands how great his responsibility is, and the unknown palace maid in the house carries the hope of the Shi royal family and the entire free sea.

He held the scimitar tightly.

Ju Chi's martial arts are good, but he doesn't have much confidence in this, he hasn't seen the dragon king's sword skills, but only a few close encounters have made him completely give up the idea of competing with him, the dragon king is like a natural steel, and he is just ordinary flesh and blood.

Ju Chi was deeply honored that King Shi entrusted his pregnant palace maid to him, but he reminded King Shi, "Secrecy is the best protection, and if the news leaks, even if there are thousands of troops, I am afraid it will not be of much use." ”

Juchi hadn't been home for months, nominally to defend the western border.

The palace maid was hidden in a remote courtyard in the palace, and she had not lived in it for a long time, and the environment was very bad, and she only had a maid ring and a mother-in-law to serve.

Every ten days, someone brings enough food to take away the garbage so that the four people in the yard don't have to take a step out of the gate.

The daily boring life continues to this day, but Ju Chi's vigilance has not slackened in the slightest, especially in the last few days, he often feels upset, always feels that there is someone nearby, and several times he has drawn his sword out of the sheath, but it is only a false alarm.

His nervousness infected the three women in the room, and they were also shocked, the safety of the fetus was already endangered, Ju Chi realized that he was probably destroying the only bloodline of the Stone King, so he forced his composure and no longer dared to draw his knife casually.

This was the ambivalence of the court guard Ju Chi when the assassins arrived, trying to resist the enemy with all his might, but also fearing the pregnant women who would be in the house.

Therefore, he hesitated to draw his knife.

The Assassin, dressed in black and moving swiftly, approached his prey silently like a nocturnal foraging feral cat.

Ju Chi was one of the prey, the scimitar was only half drawn, and the sharp tip of the opponent's knife had already slashed in front of his eyes, and he seemed to see his own blood splashing, forming a bright red blood curtain, through the blood curtain, he saw that the assassin also had a sword on his waist.

This is the end of Juike's memory.

The news of the assassination of a pregnant palace maid in the palace quickly spread throughout the capital of Shiguo, and spread outward at the speed of wildfire.

The Stone King was extremely sad and angry, and his anger lasted for a long time, from night to afternoon, and before he could get any evidence, he had already determined who the murderer was.

King Shi strode out of the palace, so fast that the eunuchs could barely keep up, and they were all surprised by His Majesty's unprecedented energy.

He came to the princess's residence, knocked on the courtyard door hard, repelled the inexplicable maid who opened the door, pushed away Xu Yanwei, who came out to ask, and walked directly into his sister's bedroom, his eyes were on fire, but he could only say four words repeatedly, "How dare you ......"

The princess was awakened from her sleep, and her anger at her brother was unknown, but she remembered vividly the smile on her face when the king had come to her yesterday to seek reconciliation.

When the king finally calmed down and was able to tell the truth, she was also stunned, and she didn't know what to say, so it took a long time to come back to her senses, "Did anyone see that it was the dragon king?"

"It's not him, it's his men!" said the Stone King, "who else but him?" I won't let you succeed, I will tell the world about the evil deeds of your husband and wife, even if I die and the stone country is destroyed, it will not fall into your hands!"

The princess wept bitterly.

Gu Shenwei woke up, and faced the surging public opinion, and overnight, Shi **min, the only one in the five countries who regarded the Dragon King as his own, began to change his attitude.

No one has openly resisted, but in the streets and alleys, inside and outside the camps, there are people everywhere gathered in a heap to talk about the bloody cases in the palace, which inevitably adds fuel to the fire, and the scene is becoming more and more terrifying, and some people even claim that the dragon king personally cut the fetus out of the pregnant woman's womb with his own hands, and only left after confirming that it was really dead.

As for the fetus, it has been proven to be a boy.

By noon, there was growing evidence that the killer was the Dragon King.

First of all, the guard Ju Chi did not die, he saw with his own eyes that the assassin was equipped with a sword and a sword, which was the unique sign of the dragon king, as for how the dragon king could miss for a while, and only half of the killing, everyone found many explanations, the most accepted of which was, "The dragon king is also nervous, who can be at ease to do such evil things?" And the dragon king's target is a pregnant woman, not a guard." ”

Immediately afterwards, an old eunuch in the palace was accused of having a private conversation with the Dragon King, and under pressure, the old eunuch confessed the truth: it was indeed he who leaked the news of the ** girl's pregnancy to the Dragon King.

The evidence was so strong that even the Dragon King's staunchest supporters began to be skeptical.

Zhong Heng came to see the Dragon King every other hour, and each time it brought worse news, the Ju clan had been out of touch with the people of Shiguo for a long time, but the tragedy restored the connection, and everyone felt deep grief and anger from the perspective of the royal family.

Zhong Heng naturally didn't believe that the Dragon King would do such a stupid thing, but when the evidence became more and more, he was also a little vague, and felt that it was necessary to get personal assurances from the Dragon King's mouth, and when he came to see the Dragon King for the fifth time, he hinted around the corner, "Well, the situation is getting more and more serious, we have to react as soon as possible, either catch the real culprit, or come up with clear evidence to prove that the Dragon King has nothing to do with this case, or...... There are also some measures that can be taken to make everyone's suspicion a little less, such as the Ju guard and the eunuch, I think the two of them can change their words. ”

"No, I don't have to. The dragon king's calm attitude confused Zhong Heng, "I have my own way. ”

"That's good, that's good. Zhong Heng believes in the Dragon King, but there is one thing, the Dragon King likes to be alone, and there are too many secrets Zhong Heng can't know, "Last night...... The dragon king seems to be out of camp?"

Zhong Heng was not tempting, nor did he want to find out the truth, but just wanted to remind the Dragon King that what he noticed, others would also notice, and this was another piece of evidence that was unfavorable to the Dragon King.

The Dragon King nodded and admitted, which made Zhong Heng's heart feel a lot more steady, which at least showed that the Dragon King was prepared for this.

"Pay attention to what's going on in the barracks. Gu Shenwei is going to the city to solve the problem, "Don't be soft on the troublemakers, execute them directly, and don't wait for me to come back." ”

"Yes. Zhong Heng bowed and retreated, his wavering confidence fully restored, and he even felt that he was so stupid that he would doubt the Dragon King.

Gu Shenwei entered the city in the evening of the same day, and along the way, he felt the suspicion and vigilance of the people.

He didn't go to see the stone king, but came directly to the princess.

The princess had been crying all day, but the tears were still endless, and when she saw her husband, she threw herself up and asked eagerly, "Is it you?"

Gu Shenwei pushed the princess away, did not answer her question, but said coldly: "What about the rest of the words? ”

"It's you, you're the murderer. The princess had no doubts in her heart, she had not yet learned to be vain and wronged, and when she was grief-stricken, she could not control her true emotions, "You already have the whole free sea, isn't it enough? Why don't you kill us all, you are so down-to-earth to be the king of the stone country? Here you are, this is the only thing you care about." ”

The princess threw out a roll of paper, and before she flew far, she fell to the ground, and Gu Shenwei caught it.

The last page of the eighth chapter of the "Book of No Way" and the complete ninth chapter are not missing, even the page forged by the lotus girl, and the words are not bad at all.

It wasn't stolen.
