Chapter 475
In an effort to obtain accurate information, civil and military officials used every means at their disposal. However, with the palace now sealed off by the Imperial Guards and the Moon Shadow Guards, not even a fly could get out, let alone any news.
The officials, especially the royalists, were in a panic. The two groups huddled together, trembling, to discuss how to rescue their emperor.
Even if they were loyal enough to go straight for the Regent and fight to the death, they still wouldn't be enough for him to cut them down with one blow!
I've heard that the Regent cuts down enemies on the battlefield like chopping melons and vegetables; he's a true god of war... It's terrifying!
Ah... Your Majesty, you must be strong and hold on! We believe in you!
Wen Xin: "..." If we really rely on you bunch of hillbillies, Feng Yuan and I are doomed.
...
Inside the palace, the Imperial Guards and secret agents all moved about the various palaces and palace corridors with solemn expressions.
However, no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find His Majesty.
The Regent's face grew colder and colder, and his aura became increasingly terrifying. If he hadn't wanted to keep this group of people searching for His Majesty and prevent them from causing chaos and panic, lest it backfire and lead to the young Empress's demise, the Phoenix Guards and Imperial Guards would have been imprisoned and tortured long ago.
What use are they? A bunch of useless trash, they even lost track of His Majesty.
Phoenix Guards and Imperial Guards: "..."
To be honest, Your Highness, wasn't it you who angered His Majesty first?
However, there is no reasoning with those in power. Even if the regent knows that he is at fault, it is a common problem for those in power to take their anger out on others.
At this moment, the Regent's cold and suppressed gaze swept over the desolate palace, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, yet he felt no pain.
Your Majesty, where are you?
The clear, melodious sound of the zither drifted over, but to his ears, it only aroused him.
Who lives here?
With His Majesty missing, who would dare play the zither? Behead them!
Yue Wudao: "Your Highness, it is the Third Princess of Nan Yue."
The Regent's voice was icy: "Search!"
"yes!"
"Who are you? What are you doing? I am..."
Jiang Yanche, who was being forced by the system to unlock his piano-playing skill, saw a group of people break down the palace gates and barge in like bandits. They not only ransacked his palace but also smashed his piano...
Jiang Yanche's temples bulged with veins; even if he were a ninja turtle, he couldn't hold back his anger.
Is he experiencing Mercury retrograde today?
This is the second time my bedroom has been searched!
What's most despicable is that Feng Yuan and his gang of barbaric scoundrels, they've gone too far in bullying people!
Jiang Yanche couldn't help but rush out angrily to confront the culprit. What kind of forbearing hostage was he? I want to kill someone!
However……
The "woman" in front of him was dressed in a black robe embroidered with dragon patterns, with her hair tied up with a jade crown (in the Tianhuang Continent, women are respected and only women can tie their hair up; men's long hair can only be tied up or tied up). She stood tall and elegant, with a cold and oppressive aura. Although she had a stunningly beautiful face, the heavy and fierce aura between her brows and eyes made people dare not look at her face too closely.
He stood at the palace gate, surrounded by a group of cold, ghostly men in white brocade robes, exuding an air of nobility and dominance, like a god.
Jiang Yanche, who had been so aggressive, couldn't help but take several steps back, swallowing hard as fear clung to him like vines.
In the entire Fengyuan, or rather, in the entire world, there is only one person who can inspire such awe at a single glance.
Regent Prince Fu Chuxue!
How could he be here?
Did he discover something?
No, impossible!
After arriving in Fengyuan, he hadn't done anything yet, so how could he possibly have directly provoked Fu Chuxue, this great killing god?
He really had a terrible day today.
For some reason, despite Fu Chuxue's stunning beauty being unmatched by any of the tomboys on this continent, Jiang Yanche not only couldn't muster any romantic or conquering thoughts, but also felt extremely wary and disgusted by her.
Okay, no matter how beautiful Fu Chuxue is, his height...
Damn, he's even taller than the real guy!
A woman who is almost 1.9 meters tall is frightening no matter how beautiful she is.
Moreover, the murderous aura and bloodlust emanating from Fu Chuxue were terrifyingly intense.
How many people has he killed?
This kind of "woman," let alone sleeping with her, makes Jiang Yanche afraid that if he takes even one step closer, she'll stab him right in the heart.
Jiang Yanche lowered his eyes and bowed, "Greetings, Regent. May I ask what brings you here?"
The Regent's cold and piercing gaze swept over him, as icy as a heartless killing machine. He neither told Jiang Yanche to rise from his formalities nor answered his questions.
It was as if Jiang Yanche was not worthy of his permission to speak, much less worthy of his attention.
Jiang Yanche gritted his teeth, feeling utterly humiliated.
Just you wait, just you wait!
Sooner or later he will become the overlord of the entire continent, standing at the top of the world, and these barbaric women will all kneel at his feet and submit.
The Moon Shadow Guards who had searched the palace quickly emerged and reported to the Regent, "Your Highness, nothing."
The regent turned and left with his men, not even glancing at Jiang Yanche. His contemptuous and domineering attitude, which completely disregarded him, almost made the male lead vomit blood.
Fu! Chu! Xue!
If the system hadn't intervened, Jiang Yanche would have almost acted rashly and used the Zi Gu on the Regent.
[Host, calm down. Fu Chuxue is not only blessed with good fortune, but also possesses overwhelming murderous aura. She is the most powerful and ruthless figure on the Tianhuang Continent. The Heart-to-Heart Gu will not only be useless against her, but may also directly backfire on you.]
Most importantly, the system doesn't think Jiang Yanche can succeed; it's more likely that he'll be eliminated by Fu Chuxue.
Jiang Yanche: "..." He felt so frustrated he wanted to vomit blood.
He's the male lead! The male lead!
What is Fu Chuxue anyway?
Jiang Yanche suddenly asked in a sarcastic tone, "System, since Fu Chuxue is so awesome, why don't you let me try to win him over?"
[...] Heh, can you do it? That guy is the most awesome person in this little world!
You think you can open a business just because I give you a little leeway?
Idiot!
[If the host has such grand dreams, I can certainly change the mission for you.]
Jiang Yanche's face twitched, and he quickly said, "No need."
Fu Chuxue is such a terrifying "woman" that it's obvious at a glance that she's impossible to win over.
He hadn't made any progress on his mission to win over the Empress, and he didn't want to create any more trouble for himself.
However, "System, do you know why Fu Chuxue came here? Why does the atmosphere in the palace feel a bit off?"
The Empress has disappeared.
Jiang Yanche was shocked: "What?"
How did the Empress disappear?
Did Fu Chuxue do something?
Wow, could it be that Fu Chuxue is planning to stage a coup and become empress herself?
What about his mission?
[Host is overthinking it. The Regent would never force the emperor to abdicate.]
"Why?"
Which regent doesn't want to be emperor?
Loyalty.
Jiang Yanche: "..."
