In the dim light of the morning, the people in the royal city got up early as usual, setting up stalls and opening shops.
A group of people suddenly saw signal flares soaring into the sky in the direction of the palace. The royal guards quickly gathered from all directions and rushed towards the palace. The atmosphere was fierce and solemn.
The people were instantly worried, straining their necks to watch, worried.
"Palace emergency flare! Someone is attacking the palace!"
"The palace has always been heavily guarded. Who is so bold as to dare to cause trouble there and force the palace to release a flare?!"
"Didn't we say a few months ago that the Queen Dowager reunited with her relatives living in China? Do you think it has anything to do with that person?"
"I don't know what's going on in the palace, but I hope nothing happens!"
At this moment, the palace was in chaos.
There were screams from palace maids and chambermaids everywhere.
The palace guards gathered and surrounded the king's chamber. Murderous intent spread in the air, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
The Queen Mother, with her hairpin crooked and her face pale, stood among the guards, her eyes red and stern, "Su Jiuni, Bai Yu! There is no grudge between Hu Man and Dayue Zhongtu, what do you mean by this! Hurry up and let go Your Majesty! As long as your Majesty is fine, the Ai family will not be held responsible for your sneaking into the palace to assassinate you this time! Otherwise, I, Hu Man, will have to seek justice from the Emperor of Dai Viet!"
"Let's forget the past? Ask for justice?" A woman's cold voice came from the palace. After a moment, King Human walked out of the palace step by step with someone holding his neck. To the left and right of him stood men and women with cold expressions.
"Da Viet and Hu Man really have no grudges, and I, Su Jiuni, have no grudges against you, Hu Man! But Hu Man offended me again and again! He kidnapped my godfather first, and then attacked and killed my master. General Yuan is behind you!" Tian Bao looked at the Queen Mother coldly, her tone colder than her face, "It was you Hu Man who first made enemies with me, Su Jiuni! If you want to ask, you should also ask me if I am willing to pursue it!"
King Hu Man was being held by the throat and could not resist at all. He could only force out his voice, "Su Jiuni, you are confusing right and wrong and deliberately targeting me, Hu Man! Bai Xiaofeng was indeed invited by us, but he came to Hu Man Manhou Gu always treats me as a distinguished guest, and is not harsh at all! He doesn’t want to leave in the palace, but it’s not that Gu won’t let him go. I even asked you to come into the palace several times to pick him up. You know best that what I said is true. ! The attack on General Dai Viet again is sheer nonsense! Gu has no knowledge of this matter at all, and it is definitely not the work of me, Hu Man!"
Bai Yu sneered, "General Yuan disappeared after being attacked! The body left behind in the fight at the scene, and the assassin had your Human King's palace guard badge on him! We don't believe what you say now, and we have no time to play tricks with you! Seeing that To be honest, the waistband belongs to your Human royal family, so I will assume that it was you who did it!"
He turned to look at the paler Queen Mother, "I'll give you fifteen days. No matter what method you use, I will receive news that General Yuan is safe after fifteen days, otherwise -"
He suddenly tightened his fingers around King Human's neck, his eyes were stern, and he said word by word, "I will use the human skin of King Human as a war drum! I will defeat Human!"
The feeling of suffocation surged up in waves. King Hu Man couldn't breathe. His face instantly turned red and purple, his eyes protruded. He tried desperately to pull the shackles around his neck with his hands, but couldn't.
The Queen Mother held on for a long time, her emotions fluctuated too much, and all her strength seemed to have been drained. She slumped on the ground with a pale face and looked very embarrassed.
She stared at the venomous look in the eyes of the young man and woman, and was speechless for a long time, her whole body trembling.
It is possible to defeat the barbarians with today's Dai Viet.
Bai Yu is not talking empty words.
Wang'er has even fallen into his hands. If Dai Viet General Yuan Yao cannot appear safely within fifteen days, Hu Man will be in danger.
But where is she going to find Yuan Yao!
The attack on Yuan Yao was not done by Hu Man at all, someone was framed and framed behind his back!
If she wants to save Yuan Yao, she must first find out the mastermind behind it. Fifteen days... She only has fifteen days, which is not enough at all!
There is a long distance between the territory of Vietnam where Yuan Yao is stationed and the Human King's city. Even if you fly pigeons to deliver messages at the fastest speed, it will take at least fifteen days to go back and forth!
Bai Yu and Su Jiuni seriously believed that Hu Man had done this, and they only gave her enough time to send the message!
Who is behind this, causing such harm to her, the Human royal family, and Human!
When she finds that man out, he will be cut into pieces!
The front door of the palace was blocked by people.
In addition to the palace guards who were relatively ready to attack, there were also many trembling palace maids and chamberlains.
The Queen Mother also rushed over after hearing the news. She was supported by the palace maid and stood behind the Queen Mother. She looked at the scene in front of her in panic, but there was an unknown joy in her eyes.
"We will take King Human away first. Fifteen days later, the Queen Mother will come to the gate of the royal city to pick up people or his body!" Tianbao glanced at him lightly, and he and Bai Yu took King Human away and left. The guards who were surrounded were seen. Make nothing.
The archers who were in position did not dare to move, for fear of accidentally injuring the king.
Everyone in the palace could only watch helplessly as the king was kidnapped and taken away. No one knew when Su Jiuni and Bai Yu sneaked into the palace and entered the king's bedroom.
…
A small wooden house one mile outside the royal city.
The house was shabby and had been vacant for who knows how long. There were spider webs hanging in every corner of the roof.
There were only basic furnishings in the house. King Hu Man sat at the table on an old wooden chair with a missing back. Looking at the people at the table, his expression changed from livid to surprised, and finally stiffened with a speechless expression.
"Acting?!" These two words fell into his ears, and he really didn't know how to react. "You entered the palace and held the orphan hostage, are you acting?!"
He was almost strangled to death!
The queen mother was even scared to death for half of her life! At this moment, I am afraid that I am racking my brains on how to rescue Yuan Yao and find out the real mastermind so that I can get him back!
What did he just hear? Bai Yu said that what happened today was just an act?
Bai Yu pretended not to see King Hu Man's livid face again and smiled, "In order to appear real and avoid suspicion from those watching in the dark, we did not explain the situation to the King in advance before acting, which frightened the King." I've been here for more than ten days, but I still have to make you stay here for a while."
King Hu Man struggled to suppress the anger he wanted to express, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and responded with a distorted smile, "I was indeed frightened, but I can understand that the more realistic the play, the better the effect. But I have a question, Since you know that General Yuan's surprise attack has nothing to do with Hu Man, if there is no good news from there in fifteen days, how will you treat me?"
Before Bai Yu could answer, Bai Xiaofeng put one hand on the table, lazily propped up his chin, and looked at him lightly and said, "Then I will have no choice but to wrong the king and die."
"……"hehe.
Every dawn wind will be punished, and its reputation is well-deserved.
See it!
