The patrols in the royal capital were intensified day by day, but except for the occasional revelation of secrets of big families that concerned the people, no other major events happened.
The notices ordered by the Khan to arrest Su Jiuni and others were still posted at the city gate and everywhere in the city, but no trace of these people was ever found, and the king's notice was reduced to waste paper.
At the end of May, the weather is getting hotter and hotter.
After nightfall, the lights in the city are brightly lit, and the restaurants on all major streets are full of customers. People gather here to discuss the new gossip and laugh endlessly.
Several figures passed over the royal capital like the wind, and quietly sneaked into the palace under the cover of night.
Among them, a thin figure took the lead. He led a few followers who were familiar with the way and went to the small side hall behind the royal palace. "This is right here. Grandpa has been here several times. Although there is no one guarding here, it looks like an insignificant empty hall at first glance. But based on my grandfather’s decades of experience in finding out where to go, I’m sure there’s definitely something weird here! Otherwise, the side halls of the king’s palace must be heavily defended! It’s impossible for Chile not to care about his own life, right? Grandpa guessed that he There is an ulterior secret hidden in this side hall, because there is a secret passage inside! Hehehehe!"
The big secret can be revealed immediately. When the old man is proud, he gets carried away and laughs extremely meanly.
Bai Xiaofeng pinched his mouth in disgust, "Have you never gone inside?"
"But if you don't have a rough one, let him go!"
"It's no use."
Just as he pinched the old man and pushed him aside, Bai Xiaofeng was about to walk to the front, but four figures standing next to him jumped in and blocked him and the old man before entering the palace.
The corners of Bai Xiaofeng's lips curled up, and she pulled the angry old man over again and led him inside.
The hall was dark and deserted, and there was no one who could sweep the hall.
The air inside feels more stuffy than outside in early summer, with the dry smell of dust and dust after being vacant for a long time.
After entering the hall, the few people walked without any problems. After easily avoiding obstacles, they stood in front of a wall designated by the old man. They tapped lightly with their fingers and heard a somewhat empty echo.
There is an empty space behind the wall, which should be the secret passage or secret room the old man mentioned.
Bai Xiaofeng walked around the wall, and he didn't know where he moved. A doorway appeared in the wall that could allow one person to go in and out.
The poisonous old man, "..."
When grandpa found it by himself, he spent more than an hour tinkering here. He was almost discovered several times but failed to find the secret passage mechanism.
Bai Xiaofeng has something.
The door opening was not very high, so Bai Yu had to lower his head to get in. "There was a sound of breathing, one sound, very superficial, not much of a threat."
Tianbao pursed her lips, and she heard it.
The sound of breathing was already very weak. If they had arrived later, they might have found dead people instead of living people.
I don’t know who Chile is hiding here, and he wants to torture him to this point.
Wheat Sui and Su Wu didn't talk. The two of them were average in kung fu among the six, with only Grandpa Du at the bottom. Therefore, neither of them dared to be careless, lest something bad happen.
A group of six people entered the secret passage one by one, followed the sound of breathing and walked down a dozen steps. When they looked up, they could see a faint light coming from the corner ahead.
The closer to the light, the stronger the disgusting smell in the air.
Soon, the scene over there appeared in front of several people.
All six fell silent.
After turning the corner, there is a small secret room with very simple furnishings, including a table, a chair, and a ceramic urn.
On the table is an ever-burning lamp that is about to burn out. Next to the lamp are a few bloody embroidery needles on a white cloth, and chairs are placed randomly beside it.
In the open space in the center of the secret room, there was a living person in the pottery urn.
The limbs of the living person were cut off, with only the head exposed at the mouth of the urn, and the hair was disheveled, like a withered bone covered with human skin.
This is a human pig.
After a long while, Old Man Du squeezed out a few words from his throat, "What kind of hatred? You become a khan and have the entire Xiongnu, and you still do this behind someone's back?"
Tianbao pursed her lips, "If I guess correctly, he should be the former Khan, Chile's royal brother."
Bai Yu said in a low voice, "It's almost the same."
"There are two brothers in the Chile family. It is said that the elder brother is outstanding in riding, shooting, strategy and courage. Chile has lived in the shadow of his elder brother since he was a child. Such a person naturally has an extreme and twisted personality. He humiliated his elder brother by making him a human pig in order to snatch his brother's love. The twisted psychology of material satisfaction... It’s just that the person living in the pottery urn is not a good person." Bai Xiaofeng said in a light voice, "Get him out and make this matter public before he dies. By then Chile It will surely lose the support of the people, and it’s almost time to end the matter.”
Su Wu was very conscious. He rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward, picking up the pottery jar. "If you think about it, the former Khan could avenge himself before he died. It can be regarded as a cycle of cause and effect."
When Su Wu approached the pottery urn, Mai Sui suppressed her nausea and took out a clean handkerchief to use as a mask for him, covering his mouth and nose.
People eat, drink, and poop in the jar... Chile will die unjustly in the future.
The palace defense was like a decoration to a few people, and by the time they noticed the movement and wanted to pursue them, it was already too late.
At dawn the next day, there was another commotion in the capital, causing a huge wave.
A human pig appeared in the middle of the main street in the royal capital, which has the largest number of people coming and going every day.
The first ones to notice were the merchants who had gotten up early to open their shops on the street, and they immediately reported it to the authorities.
The first one to arrive was the city patrol commander of the Qiulin family. He had received the Khan's order to strictly guard the west area, which happened to be near this street.
Commander Qiulin arrived at the scene. After carefully looking at his face, he blurted out an exclamation before he could take it back, "It's the former Khan! The former Khan, he's not dead—!"
These words that came out of his mouth were like water dripping into a frying pan, completely exploding the royal capital in the early morning.
Royal families have had power struggles since ancient times, and it is not uncommon for fathers and sons to turn against each other and kill brothers.
But this kind of torture and humiliation of the loser has never happened before. Just thinking about this kind of practice makes people shudder.
The supreme image of Khan in the hearts of the people collapsed.
Everyone knows that the throne of Chile was taken by killing his brother.
If that were all, it would be commonplace.
But the truth is so disgusting.
The king's capital has changed.
Tianbao and his party retired after completing this task. With the help of the shopkeeper, they quietly left the capital and returned to the Central Plains.
Less than half a month after the trip, I heard the news that the Twins were going to the royal capital to kill.
The Twins are a long-established aristocratic family of the Xiongnu. The family has been glorious for more than two hundred years and has a profound heritage.
Even after the family fell into decline, the root system buried underground was still deep and wide, with luxuriant branches and whiskers, just waiting to be seen again.
In addition, the battles between the Xiongnu royal family have always been fierce, and the Xiongnu people have long been accustomed to it. Therefore, there are very few doubts about the rebellion of the Jin Dynasty.
Now that the human pig incident has occurred, Chile has completely lost the support of the people. The dignitaries in the royal capital have also taken notice and joined in the denunciation of the Khan.
With this common style, Twin Danyi commanded the capital and made great progress.
By the time Tianbao and his party set foot on the soil of the Central Plains, the war with the Huns had come to an end.
Just two months.
Chile committed suicide in the palace, and the choice of the new Khan was still pending. After that, there was a fight between the Huns nobles, but those things had nothing to do with the Central Plains.
