He finally couldn't help interrupting.
"My two elder brothers, I understand. I will be more careful in my future service."
He gave a flattering smile and said, "According to the time, His Highness should have dealt with the matter. I will not disturb you for now."
He stood up and tried to leave but was pushed back.
The two were in high spirits and were unwilling to let him go.
"Why rush? His Highness has no shortage of people to serve him. Let's continue. Where were we talking about?"
"When His Highness was ten years old, he passed by the cold palace and encountered the people who bullied the Sixth Prince."
wood:"???"
His struggling suddenly slowed down and he sat down.
"At that time, the Sixth Prince had lost his mind and suffered endless humiliation in the cold palace. One day, Your Highness was passing by and saw that evil servant bullying his master! He shouted loudly on the spot, and the scene was truly a scene of millions of corpses and thousands of miles of blood!"
"The evil servant fell to his knees, trembling..."
The rest of the words were automatically blocked by the wood.
He stared blankly ahead, his eyes empty.
He is so stupid, really.
It's been so many days, but I still forgot. There's never a single serious thing these people talk about. I thought they would mention something about the Sixth Prince.
After all, I was overthinking it.
Mu Tou took a deep breath, ignored them, stood up and said directly: "Two big brothers, we really can't delay any longer. The rest will wait until next time. You can tell me later."
He said that without waiting for their response, he stood up and ran away.
On his way back in a hurry, he bumped into someone without paying attention and fell flat on his face.
There were constant cries of "ouch".
"Why are you so impatient? Where do you work?"
Mu Tou hurriedly climbed up and half-knelt, his head lowered and he dared not raise his head: "My name is Mu Tou, and I serve His Highness. I was a little anxious for a moment."
The servant looked at him sideways and said, "It's you. Your Highness was just looking for you. Go quickly."
The prince is looking for him?
Mu Tou's heart skipped a beat. He stood up and saw the person he had knocked down.
Although he was wearing a hood and his face could not be seen clearly, from the scars and figure that had just flashed by, Mu Tou could be sure that this was Song Shiwei.
But does Your Highness know why she is in the East Palace?
The surprise lasted only a moment, then Mu Tou calmed down and smiled innocently: "I'll go right away."
He continued walking forward.
Song Shiwei's eyes were fixed on Mu Tou's back.
You didn't even apologize to her after you hit her?!
The servant saw what Song Shiwei was thinking at a glance: "Miss Song, His Highness has specifically instructed that you are now in the East Palace, your status is even lower than that of a maid. It is a great favor for His Highness to take you in."
"Pay attention to your identity. Don't wander around without any reason. Be careful not to be recognized."
Song Shiwei's fingernails were almost embedded in the flesh.
…
"Xiao Lingyu left her behind."
Xiao Yanli's brows relaxed. "A few people have already gone up the mountain. I'll pass the news back today. Xiao Lingyu will definitely leave as soon as possible."
"Tell someone to keep an eye on Xiao Lingyu. If they find him leaving the palace, notify me immediately."
Uncle Zhang responded.
There was also a hint of joy in his eyes: "The elite soldiers are waiting outside the city. They only need to give the order to attack the city. Your Highness, victory is now in your grasp!"
Xiao Yanli was not so optimistic.
His eyes were deep and deep. "Why did the Emperor imprison Xu Yanli and Jiang Kang'an in the Heavenly Prison? And Jiang Bojian, the report that came in, after meeting with me that day, he was called away by the Emperor and never returned to the Imperial Academy."
"What exactly does the emperor want to do?"
Uncle Zhang didn't understand the emperor's intentions either. He hesitated and said, "Perhaps he feels that the Xu family has been targeted and is worried that they will be silenced in the imperial prison?"
That makes sense.
But Xiao Yanli always felt uneasy, as if something was gradually slipping away from his control.
But everything that is happening now is clearly under his control!
He pinched the root of his nose: "How's the situation over at Nan Gu?"
"No news yet."
No news is the best news right now.
Based on the pitiful patriotism of the Nan Gu people, Xiao Yanli had no doubt that they would have all fled by now.
Xiao Yanli's lips curled up into a sarcastic smile.
If we continue like this, we can defeat Nan Gu in three days, let alone a week!
He took a deep breath.
…
Southern Gu.
Late at night, there was a rustling sound in the grass, but the Apocalypse soldiers patrolling back and forth were too lazy to pay attention.
After all, there are snakes everywhere in these bushes, so it is normal for them to make noises.
They have gone from being alert at the beginning to being numb now.
The rustling sound came and went, and when there were no footsteps around, the sound became louder.
Youli led the way, the Great Elder brought up the rear, and the four of them crawled darkly in the bushes.
In order to avoid being discovered, they dared not make any sound and could only get very close to each other. When encountering something, they patted each other as a signal.
Now there were no soldiers around, and after being reminded, the four of them sped up.
After walking about twenty meters, I suddenly heard footsteps and conversations from the side.
"Have you heard? Miss Hu is the champion in today's competition!"
"I heard that although the general and Jiang Wenjing didn't end up like that, doesn't this indirectly prove that Miss Hu's strength is second only to them in the military?"
"How do you know they're inferior? Just because they didn't make it, it doesn't mean that Ms. Hu can't compete."
"Oh, something's wrong with you. You're doing this kind of maintenance, could it be that you..."
"Just shut up, I naturally admire the strong. I will protect whoever is strong."
Along with the conversation, the sound of plucking wooden sticks was also heard.
You Li held his breath, patted it gently, and then slowly moved deeper, and the others quickly followed.
No matter how careful you are, the sound of simultaneous movement cannot be covered up.
"Tsk, why are there so many snakes here?"
The four of them froze in place, not daring to move.
The sudden sound that started and stopped aroused the soldier's vigilance. He waved his hand, signaling his companions to come over.
The two of them tiptoed closer.
Both sides held their breath, but——
"Have you finished reading it all?"
A female voice broke the silence.
The soldier was startled for a moment, then recovered and saluted quickly: "Your Excellency the Censor!"
Jiang Zhiyu nodded and said, "I just saw that this place has been searched. You can go over there and take a look."
"Can……"
The soldier opened his mouth to retort, but just as he uttered a word, his companion pulled him away by his sleeve.
The footsteps gradually faded away.
Youli did not let down his guard. He pricked up his ears and listened for a long time. After making sure there were no footsteps, he continued to crawl forward.
Others followed him.
They didn't encounter any problems along the way, and they could vaguely see the exit.
As long as they crawl out of the bushes and enter the dense forest on the opposite side while the Apocalypse people are not paying attention, they can escape!
Even someone as calm as Youli couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster.
However, at this moment, the Great Elder suddenly stopped moving and even made a sound.
He said, "That's not right."
