Chapter 545: Holding the Emperor Hostage to Command the Princes



After hearing this, Yang Xiu's face darkened. He wanted to say something else, but in the end he just snorted coldly and said, "Humph, you're just accusing me of something!"

Yu Fu stopped talking. It was useless to say anything now.

Ling Fei just frowned slightly and said nothing.

Only Xuebai's face changed drastically. If he still didn't know what was happening in this situation, then he would be stupid.

Xuebai didn't bother with politeness and called him by his name, "Shui Lianche! Aren't you afraid of a joint attack from the three states by doing this?!"

Shui Lianche glanced at Xuebai with disdain and said, "Afraid? With you guys here, what do I have to fear?"

Xuebai's face turned pale, and his body trembled slightly with fear. He looked up at Lingfei beside him and whispered, "Saint, what should we do now?"

Ling Fei said calmly, "Just wait and see."

At the same time, Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan, who were originally heading towards Guanshui Peak, changed their direction and headed towards the Shuizhou Palace instead.

Ji Xingzhi followed silently behind, and asked doubtfully, "Uncle, what are we doing in the Shuizhou Palace? Didn't you say Luo Bai and the others were at the Guanshui Terrace?"

"Something happened at the Guanshui Terrace." Xiao Moyan said.

Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned: "Something happened? How do you know something happened?"

"Murderous intent." Xiao Moyan said indifferently.

Hearing this, Ji Xingzhi's mouth twitched slightly. She turned around and looked at Guanshui Peak, which was so far away that she could only see the top. From such a distance... she could still sense the murderous aura?? This was truly inhuman...

After thinking about it, Ji Xingzhi suddenly paused, quickly reached out and grabbed Xiao Moyan's arm and said, "Aren't my cousin and Luo Bai in danger now?"

Xiao Moyan glanced at Ji Xingzhi nonchalantly, then took Ji Xingzhi's hand and continued walking towards the Shuizhou Palace, saying something neither lightly nor seriously: "You are more dangerous."

After hearing this, Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned, and a hint of realization flashed in his eyes. That's right... At this time, the Guanshui Terrace was full of crises. Shui Lianche clearly wanted to use the emperor to control the princes. If the emperors of other states were on the Guanshui Terrace, it meant that Shui Lianche's plan had succeeded.

Ji Ruhua, Luo Bai and others are just bait, waiting to catch her fish. Ji Ruhua and others will be fine for a while.

Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan went to the Shuizhou Palace. The palace was very quiet, abnormally quiet.

Although they noticed something was wrong, they couldn't tell what was wrong. Xiao Moyan and Ji Xingzhi had no choice but to return to the inn. Not long after they returned to the inn, many Shuizhou soldiers suddenly appeared in the streets and alleys, holding a stack of portraits in their hands and posting them everywhere.

Soon, the portraits covered almost the entire Shuizhou City.

The inn where Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan stayed was of course no exception.

When Ji Xingzhi saw the portrait, he couldn't help but praise it: "Wow! Who drew this? It looks so much like me!"

Xiao Moyan glanced at the portrait in Ji Xingzhi's hand, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "It is indeed very similar."

Even the inconspicuous little black mole on Xingzhi's chin was painted on. The person who painted it must be very familiar with Xingzhi.

As soon as the innkeeper saw the person in the portrait, his face changed drastically and he could not hide his joy. He did not expect that the young man staying in his inn was actually the Emperor of Lizhou. The other one must be the Regent of Lizhou!

The portrait says that the Emperor of Lizhou had an accident on his way to Shuizhou and is now missing. The Emperor of Shuizhou is very worried. If you see the Emperor of Lizhou, please be sure to protect his safety and bring him to the Shuizhou Palace, there will be a generous reward.

When the innkeeper, grinning from ear to ear, led the soldiers to the room to look for Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan, he found that the room was empty and they had obviously left long ago.
