Liang Chaozong had his hands handcuffed behind his back by two imperial guards. Although his body could not move, his eyes were still full of ferocity and hostility.
Just as several imperial guards took out ropes and prepared to tie him up tightly and hand him over to their superiors, suddenly, the sound of horse hooves resounded through the sky.
Eight riders wearing black night clothes and masks came galloping like a whirlwind.
The eight horses galloped like ghosts emerging from the darkness.
These men in black quickly surrounded Liang Chaozong and the five imperial guards.
The eight men in black quickly took out darts from their pockets and threw them out before the five imperial guards could react.
In the blink of an eye, five imperial guards were hit by darts and fell to the ground.
Liang Chaozong took the opportunity to break free.
"Master, get on your horse quickly!" The leading man in black shouted, and rode his horse in front of Liang Chaozong and pulled his belt hard.
Liang Chaozong endured the severe pain in his back, took a deep breath, and mounted the horse.
"Come here! They're trying to run!"
Suddenly, a panicked male voice was heard from not far away, and then a dozen imperial guards ran over.
When they arrived, Liang Chaozong and his men had already run away.
…
Imperial study.
"What? Did Liang Chaozong get away again?!" Emperor Mingxi's face was as cold as ice.
The Second Prince and Ying Chen stood in front of Emperor Mingxi's desk with their heads lowered.
"Your Majesty, it is my fault that I have failed to perform my duties well." The second prince whispered.
Emperor Mingxi slowly shook his head: "No, it's not your fault."
[Liang Chaozong is the son of destiny, the male protagonist, and has the aura of a male protagonist. ]
His daughter's voice suddenly echoed in Emperor Mingxi's ears.
Yes, my daughter has said it countless times that Liang Chaozong is the son of destiny, the male protagonist, and has the aura of a male protagonist.
It was as if there was some mysterious force protecting him, and he was really hard to kill.
Thinking of this, Emperor Mingxi felt somewhat relieved.
Seeing that Emperor Mingxi was silent for a long time, Ying Chen boldly said, "Your Majesty, please don't let your body get damaged by anger. Give me a few more days, and I will go and capture Liang Chaozong."
Emperor Mingxi waved his hand: "Forget it."
He had already thought it through. Since Liang Chaozong was difficult to kill, he would not make things difficult for himself for the time being.
Daxia was now strong, and Liang Chaozong's internal power and intelligence network had been completely eliminated. At present, Liang Chaozong's threat to Daxia was no longer a threat.
Since this is the case, it would be better to make use of Liang Chaozong and take the opportunity to deal with Dai Viet.
He pondered for a moment, then quickly drafted an imperial edict and handed it to the second prince.
…
Early morning, Guest House.
The second prince held the imperial edict and read it to the Dai Viet delegation in person.
"Last night, the Imperial Guards witnessed Liang Chaozong escaping from the guesthouse. The Dai Viet delegation is suspected of colluding with and harboring remnants of the Liang Dynasty..."
Han Lie and his group's expressions suddenly changed.
"It's unfair!" Han Lie said in a hoarse voice.
"It must be Liang Chaozong who secretly hid in the guesthouse to avoid being hunted down. We are wronged!" Bai Zhou shouted at the top of his lungs.
The prince's face was as gloomy as water, but his hands were already shaking slightly. "We are here for the sake of friendly relations between our two countries. We would never do such a thing. I hope your country will understand."
The Second Prince put away the imperial edict and said calmly, "As you all know, Liang Chaozong is the most wanted criminal on my Great Xia list. But last night, the Imperial Guards saw him escape from the guesthouse."
"This is a serious matter and requires a thorough investigation."
"Until the truth is revealed, you will all be confined to the reception hall for an indefinite period of time."
When Han Lie and his group heard this, their faces turned extremely ugly.
The duration is not fixed, it could be a few days, a few months, or even a few years.
It is not uncommon for envoys to be detained for several years or even more than ten years when visiting foreign countries.
The Second Prince said with a forced smile, "Please stay here peacefully. We will quickly investigate the matter of Liang Chaozong and the plot to murder me."
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked away in a square step, leaving Han Lie and his group alone in the wind.
In the inner room, Han Lie and the other two sat together.
The eldest prince said with a cold face: "I have told you long ago not to meddle in Liang Chaozong's affairs. Lord Han, you actually hid him in the guesthouse without telling me!"
Han Lie glared at the prince and said, "Now that things have come to this, there's no point in saying more!"
Bai Zhou wiped the sweat from his forehead. "We're not going to be imprisoned by Da Xia anymore, are we? What should we do? They're not saying they'll let us go, nor are they saying they won't let us go."
"Can we ever go back?"
Han Lie patted Bai Zhou's shoulder gently and said softly, "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to go back."
Late at night, Bai Zhou was tossing and turning in bed when suddenly the window creaked.
"Who!" Bai Zhou sat up in shock.
"It's me!" Han Lie responded in a low voice and jumped in from the window.
When Bai Zhou heard that it was Lord Han, his panicked expression immediately eased.
"Master Han, it's so late, what's the matter with you coming to see me?"
Han Lie lowered his voice very low: "Shh! Keep your voice down, I came here secretly to discuss something with you."
As he spoke, Han Lie had already arrived in front of Bai Zhou.
Bai Zhou said in the dark, "Master Han, I was just looking for you to share my thoughts."
However, as soon as Bai Zhou finished speaking, a poisonous needle pierced his neck.
"Ah...why..." Bai Zhou covered his neck in pain, then rolled his eyes and fell on the bed.
At this moment, a dark figure also came in from the window and said, "Master Han, it's settled."
This person is Han Lie's personal bodyguard.
"Hang him up!" Han Lie's voice was extremely cold.
