Chapter 5: The eternal infamy
When Zhu Feng walked out of the bedroom, the corner of his clothes was already burning, but he didn't care. However, the people around him were frightened and rushed forward to put out the flames on the corner of his clothes.
He turned his head coldly: "Where are the people?"
When everyone heard this, no one dared to speak.
Two men who looked like lieutenants stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, we have already deployed additional personnel to various checkpoints within the palace. However, the palace is currently in chaos, and we have yet to find any trace of the emperor."
Zhu Feng's eyes turned cold: "Go find him, you must find him for me!"
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, several subordinates hurriedly retreated.
Zhu Feng turned his head coldly again and looked at the imperial city in front of him which had fallen into chaos. He knew very well what kind of record his breaking into the imperial city tonight would leave in the history books, but at the moment, this record had not yet been completed.
As long as they found the emperor, the emperor who was determined to reduce the power of the princes and put their uncles to death, and made his crimes public, there would be room for improvement.
Otherwise, he will be cursed for generations to come!
Thinking of this, his expression became even darker.
Just then, he heard light footsteps behind him, as if a kitten was following him.
Zhu Feng looked back and saw that it was the woman he had just rescued from the bedroom. She was wrapped in the cloak he had thrown to her and was following him carefully.
Seeing him turn around, the woman also raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes, which were clearly black and white and looked like a deer's, were wide open with a look of fear.
Zhu Feng frowned: "Why are you following me?"
Nan Yan stopped in her tracks when he glared at her: "I, I——"
"Stop following me!"
After saying this, Zhu Feng turned around coldly and continued walking forward.
Nan Yan stood there, staring blankly at his back, not daring to follow him for a moment, but when she turned around and looked around, she gritted her teeth and continued to follow him.
Hearing her footsteps, Zhu Feng stopped again and looked back at her: "How dare you follow me!"
Nan Yan said softly, "I want to thank His Highness for saving my life."
"You already thanked me."
“…”
Nan Yan glanced around again, gritted her teeth, and said, "Your Highness, I just want to stay alive."
"Survive?"
Zhu Feng was stunned for a moment, then he looked around following her gaze and finally understood.
There were corpses lying all around him. He didn't know that one of them was the palace maid who had just brought Nan Yan to the bedroom. She was now covered in blood and lying coldly on the ground.
If no one protects her, Nan Yan herself will probably suffer the same fate in the blink of an eye.
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
I don’t know if this woman is too bold or too timid. In the army, no one has ever dared to go against his will, not even a word. But this woman dared to follow him all the time in order to “survive”.
Zhu Feng said coldly: "You want to live? Then do you know that these people were all killed by me?"
“…”
"You can follow me and see if you can survive."
After saying that, he turned and walked forward.
Nan Yan looked at his back hesitantly, and for a moment she was at a loss, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, a sudden noisy sound came from the front. Nan Yan raised her head and saw a large group of people suddenly walking towards her.
What's going on?
