Chapter 41 Highest Alert



"So is there a possibility that Mao Xiang is actually outside the city, and his men have already infiltrated? Or is it that he personally went to assassinate His Majesty, and the two Jinyiwei co-officials are gathering information inside the city?"

Thinking of this, Xue Wuxia asked.

"That's possible. After all, if the assassination attempt on His Majesty fails, then being able to uncover the specific problems in Zhaoyang and reduce casualties in subsequent Chen Dynasty attacks would be a significant achievement. After all, everyone knows that the Emperor is heavily guarded, and he can't be killed at will."

Wang Zuo thought for a moment and continued, "I've already reported this to His Majesty. I'm sure His Majesty has already made preparations. It won't be that easy for him to succeed. As for Zhaoyang City, it's up to you and your people to find him."

Hearing this, Xue Wuxia quickly pressed the issue, "Boss, when did your messenger set out? After all, Mao Xiang disappeared first, and our messenger was dispatched later. Do you think it's possible that he could have rushed all the way to Xijing, giving us a time difference, so that Your Majesty would have encountered him before receiving any warning?"

Hearing this, Wang Zuo chuckled:

"Normally, if you said that, it would really make me nervous, but now I'm not afraid of it."

"Why? Did you release pigeons? Then you should release a few more as backup."

"That's not the case. It's just that you've been in Zhaoyang for so long that there are some things you don't know. Besides, this matter wasn't originally intended to be reported to your level.

But now that it's being used, if I didn't tell you, you would have noticed something was wrong, so it's okay to tell you now. This is also approved by His Majesty."

Wang Zuo kept it a secret. After all, no one in this world could have imagined it.

"What is that?"

Xue Wuxia was a little confused by what Wang Zuo said.

"Do you remember when you were in school, the principal taught you that if you adjust the current in a regular pattern, you can use it to transmit signals?"

"Well, you know, the principal said back then that this was just to broaden your horizons, and it wouldn't count towards the exam. Anyway, it's not going to be built anytime soon..."

At this point, Xue Wuxia suddenly woke up: "Could it be that it has already been built?"

"It's finished. His Majesty has named it a telegraph machine. However, we were allocated very few, and only one is placed in the central fortress of the fortress complex. I have used it to contact Xijing, sent the message, and received a reply from His Majesty."

After saying this, Wang Zuo paused deliberately, then raised his voice slightly and said proudly, "It all took only a quarter of an hour. Even if Mao Xiang could fly, he couldn't have reached Xijing before I got the news."

After listening to this, Xue Wuxia breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she was not in charge of protecting the important figures in Xijing, she believed in the abilities of her comrades. With the cooperation of the royal guards, she might be able to protect Lin Hai while giving Mao Xiang a severe blow. It would be even better if she could trap him there.

"Xijing has entered a state of internal tension and external relaxation, and the security of Your Majesty has reached the highest level. If Your Majesty still needs to appear in public every day for the sake of reassuring the people, we can easily hide Your Majesty in a place Mao Xiang would never expect. After all, with the telegraph, Your Majesty can also remotely control the government."

"Well, the telegraph is indeed a marvelous invention."

Xue Wuxia was occasionally marveling at the magic of the telegraph, but she always felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly, after hearing Wang Zuo's words, Xue Wuxia's whole body shook, as if an electric current was flowing through her body, and a feeling of sudden enlightenment hit her head.

"Boss, where did you just say you were going to hide His Majesty? Somewhere Mao Xiang would never expect?"

Xue Wuxia asked with a look of great understanding.

"Yes, since we are Tibetans, we naturally hide like this."

"Yes, Mao Xiang would definitely think so."
