Chapter 187 Trial 8
However, what Wei Xiao did not expect was that the Seventh Prince actually found a tunnel in this village, a tunnel that could lead directly to Liang Jing.
The corners of Wei Xiao's mouth twitched. If he hadn't suggested taking the water route, would they have to come here by land?
The Seventh Prince also received a lot of news. Wei Xiao discovered that the assassins all traveled by land.
Wei Xiao looked at the Seventh Prince in stealth. This man was not a good person either. He didn't believe that he didn't know that there was an assassin trying to assassinate him. Maybe the first time was to seduce him.
The Seventh Prince looked at the news and said, "All the assassins that can be dealt with have been dealt with. Let's go straight to Liangjing." He would not waste time. After all, his brother's request for help was a long time ago. Although the city gate has not been breached yet, no one knows what the situation inside is like for such a long time.
Wei Xiao just followed quietly behind the Seventh Prince. He really suspected that this was a game world and those assassins were the players. They just didn't know that because of his suggestion, the Seventh Prince had a new plot.
In other words, the Seventh Prince has been waiting for a change, but his brain is programmed and he cannot think of any other way.
If it weren't for Wei Xiao's reminder, they would probably still have to travel by land with difficulty and fight the Seven Colors Army all the way.
No one knew that the Seventh Prince would arrive so soon.
Wei Xiao followed the Seventh Prince and easily entered Liangjing. Now the people guarding Liangjing were all imperial guards, and there were some ordinary people among them.
Although the current emperor is not that good, for the common people, their previous life was a bit hard, but at least it was stable.
Now that the Seven Colors Army has appeared, even if Liangjing is occupied by the Seven Colors Army, the next battle will probably be between the Seven Colors Army.
Therefore, the common people in Liangjing City did not dare to gamble at all, especially since they had also received news that the Seven Color Army had burned, killed, and looted along the way and was truly committing all kinds of evil. Only a fool would support these people.
After all, the current emperor will at most collect a little more money, but he will not take their lives.
The Seventh Prince took half of his men into the palace, and the remaining half went directly to the city wall.
Seeing the reinforcements coming, the guards were about to cry.
Wei Xiao followed the Seventh Prince into the palace, but he did not expect that the current emperor was already dying. In addition, his children were too young. The emperor saw his seventh brother and directly abdicated the throne to the Seventh Prince.
The Seventh Prince became busy afterwards, but more people protected him. He did not ignore his brother's illness, but found the best doctors to treat his brother and placed them in his palace.
What was unexpected was that as soon as the late emperor left the palace, his health gradually improved.
Wei Xiao had an amused expression on his face. The late emperor was so poor, could the throne really fall into the hands of the Seventh Prince?
Wei Xiao did not see any scenes of brothers fighting each other. The late emperor was very obedient. He even left directly through the secret passage with the late queen and their children under the arrangement of the Seventh Prince.
As for where to go, that is not clear. After all, the late emperor has a lot of people around him, and they will definitely find a good place for him.
The Seventh Prince took over the throne, but he was also very depressed. After all, the whole country was in chaos.
As more and more soldiers of the Seventh Prince arrived, the entire Liangjing area was truly defended.
On the day Liang Jing came down safely, Wei Xiao was still wondering whether the mission was completed, but what he didn't expect was that the mission was not completed at all.
At this time, the system prompted that an assassin had entered Beijing. Wei Xiao was speechless. Wasn't the entire country mostly stable now?
However, what Wei Xiao did not expect was that this was a game world, and the Seven Color Army was burning, killing and looting because they had no leader.
As for the players, as long as they have a lot of money, they can lead the Seven Color Army. As long as they kill the Seventh Prince, they can successfully become the king of this country.
Wei Xiao's face was distorted. This was probably the reason why the late emperor abdicated.
So, we have to protect the Seventh Prince endlessly.
When Wei Xiao was complaining, the system explained for the first time, "As long as the trial-taker can ensure that the Seventh Prince can succeed to the throne safely, the mission will be completed."
Wei Xiao knew that the Seventh Prince's succession ceremony was about to begin, and there were more and more assassins during this period.
Wei Xiao has killed many assassins. Not only him, but also the subordinates of the Seventh Prince. Every day in various places in Liangjing, there are scenes of blood on the ground, but the corpses are quietly cleaned up by the officers and soldiers.
Wei Xiao thought for a while and appeared next to the Seventh Prince.
When seeing Wei Xiao, the Seventh Prince was not surprised at all, "I know you have been protecting me. Thank you for your protection. You will be able to complete the task soon."
Wei Xiao said, "Aren't you nervous? There are more and more assassins now."
"Assassins have no way to enter the imperial city directly, so it is easy to avoid them." At this point, the Seventh Prince looked at Wei Xiao, "They don't have such powerful means as you."
Wei Xiao sighed and took out a defensive talisman. "Put it on. It can save your life at a critical moment."
The Seventh Prince took the defensive talisman and placed it directly on his chest. He thought it would at least save his life. He knew that these people had many tricks up their sleeves.
He has been reborn more than a dozen times, and the final outcome every time is to become emperor and then be tortured and killed. To be honest, he is powerless to resist. Every time he just follows the plot, and he has no energy to change it. Even if he knows that the water route is better, he has no way to change it.
It was not until Wei Xiao appeared and suggested taking the water route that he immediately had the ability to change it. In fact, he still had expectations this time, but putting expectations on others was not going to be that good.
Wei Xiao was still guarding in the dark, but the Seventh Prince now felt safe, and he also noticed that Wei Xiao had set up some kind of formation in his study. Wei Xiao told him, "Whenever you encounter danger in the future, you can hide in here, and no one can get in."
The Seventh Prince was very smart. He knew there was a formation here, so he had people prepare a lot of food here and replace it regularly. He actually dealt with a lot of crises later on.
The Seventh Prince's succession ceremony was held as scheduled.
Wei Xiao originally wanted to put a protective shield on the Seventh Prince, but he found that it didn't work at all, so he had to protect him himself.
There are now nearly a thousand assassins in the entire Liangjing. As for how many of them will appear at this ceremony, Wei Xiao is not sure, but he knows that his task is heavy. Next, he must guard the Seventh Prince and cannot leave his side no matter what.
Wei Xiao observed that there seemed to be people with special abilities among those assassins. He was a little speechless. He originally thought that all the players were ordinary people, but he didn't expect that this game was very perverted. As long as you have money, you can become whatever you want.
