Tonight's raid was very strange.
The envoys from the Nanmo Kingdom were also killed, and even the owner of Tianxiang Tower and a dozen girls who served customers were all killed with a single knife.
There was no one alive in the entire Tianxiang Tower except for those few of them.
Lord Li, who had always been with the Hua siblings, was nowhere to be seen.
There was something strange about it all.
Shen Yunxiao sat in the lobby downstairs of Tianxiang Tower with a sullen face, surrounded by guards with murderous expressions.
General Hua led his men to search Tianxiang Tower inside and out, and found that the back door was open and there were many tire tracks on the ground. They thought that the people must have been taken away from there.
General Hua sent some people to continue chasing along the wheel tracks, while he reported to Shen Yunxiao about tonight's gains.
All the letters that had not yet been destroyed were presented to Shen Yunxiao.
It turns out that the madam of Tianxianglou had already had dealings with the former crown prince Chen Yunheng, or in other words, she was actually Chen Yunheng's person!
The reason for staying here is to deliver information to Shen Yunheng.
But Shen Yunheng was a ruthless man. He knew that this matter would be exposed sooner or later, so he killed the madam and all the girls who served the customers.
That’s eighteen lives!
In terms of cruelty, who can be crueler than him?
Shen Yunxiao slammed his fist on the table. His face turned pale and he regretted not taking advantage of Shen Yunheng's victory, which gave him the opportunity to take advantage!
After all, I am still too soft-hearted!
He immediately decided to go find Lu Jinyue himself.
"Your Majesty, please think twice! The country cannot be without a king for a day!" General Hua stopped the man directly.
Now is a turbulent time. If those with ulterior motives find out that the emperor is not in the palace, wouldn't that give them an opportunity?
Shen Yunxiao closed his eyes irritably and clenched his hands into fists!
"Your Majesty, please let me go!" Hua Wuyang volunteered.
His life was saved by Lu Jinyue. He knew clearly that he was about to lose his mind. When she squatted in front of him, she stuffed something into her mouth, and then suddenly a cool taste appeared in his mouth.
His mind gradually became clear, and the fanatical restlessness gradually subsided.
He knew that it was Lu Jinyue who fed him the antidote.
"Your Majesty, I will go too!" Hua Xue Ning also stood up.
After half an hour's rest, she completely recovered, but she still looked a little disheveled.
She couldn't imagine what she would face if Lu Jinyue hadn't appeared in time.
The disgusting and shameful feeling still lingers in her heart, making her feel very embarrassed.
Shen Yunxiao frowned, his face cold.
"If you meet Chen Yunheng, you don't have to capture him alive, just execute him on the spot." The Hua siblings' faces turned stern, and they clasped their fists in response.
Before the two men could leave, Eunuch Ma rushed in.
"Your Majesty, the Qingzhou prefect has important matters to report!" Shen Yunxiao waved his hand, "Announce!"
Soon, more than a dozen guards came up carrying ten bodies covered with white cloth.
As soon as they appeared, everyone felt as if they were suddenly in a mass grave.
A foul smell spread, making everyone feel nauseous.
The Hua siblings were just so pale at this moment, and they all slumped in their chairs, covering their mouths with nausea.
Some couldn't hold it in any longer and started vomiting. After the first one, the second and the third followed, and in an instant the entire hall was filled with the sound of vomiting.
Even the battle-hardened eunuch Ma couldn't help it.
Shen Yunxiao's face was ice-cold.
"Your Majesty! Three days of heavy rain in a small town in Qingzhou washed these bodies out. They were discovered by local villagers."
The Qingzhou prefect personally removed the white cloth from the first corpse. Before everyone could prepare themselves mentally, they were shocked by another wave of corpses covered with livor mortis and gigantism.
Hua Wuyang, who had just vomited, felt a cramp in his stomach and turned around to vomit again.
No one present escaped this scene.
Hua Xue Ning found some nice-smelling sachets from some young lady's room and gave them to Shen Yunxiao and her younger brother. Only then did Hua Wuyang's expression look a little better.
But the whole person is still like a puddle of mud.
The Dali Temple Minister quickly responded to the call. As soon as he saw the clothes and appearance of the corpses, he knew that these people were the real people from Nanmo who were sent as envoys to the Da Rui Dynasty.
"Judging from the corpse spots and the degree of decay, he must have been dead for more than half a month. And the journey from Nanmo Country is long. It would take at least two months to walk from Nanmo to the capital."
The Dali Temple Minister said with a serious face.
That means those people had started making preparations at least two months ago.
Chen Yunheng's thoughts are so deep!
If he were to become the emperor, Shen Yunxiao would surely die without a burial place!
"Is he trying to start a war between Nanmo and Darui?" General Hua kicked over a chair, his brows raised in anger.
"How can you do this, boy!" The Dali Temple Minister also had a serious expression.
This matter concerns national affairs, and no one present dares to take it lightly.
The bodies of the fake princess and the fake envoy were right next to them.
The Dali Temple Minister noticed with his sharp eyes that there were some traces of slight curling on the edges of the two people's faces.
He squatted down, reached out and felt around, found the raised edge and tore it hard, and a human skin mask as thin as a cicada's wing was torn off.
Under the human skin mask were two extremely rough faces. Liana was not a woman at all, but a man.
Shen Yunxiao's face darkened when he thought about being so close to a man and almost being molested.
He drew the sword from his waist and used a set of exquisite sword skills to smash all the tables in the hall into pieces.
Hua Wuyang swallowed subconsciously.
Fortunately, Shen Yunxiao only chopped the tables and chairs and didn't chop people, otherwise he would be worried that he would be hit.
By the time he calmed down, the scene was in a mess and everyone was kneeling on the ground begging him to calm down.
"It's said that there's a kind of evil magic in the Beiming Kingdom that can only be practiced by men. If successful, one can change their appearance and gender. I originally thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."
General Hua had dealt with people from the Beiming Kingdom a few years ago, and he was really disgusted at that time.
I didn't expect that after so much time had passed, he could still be disgusted again.
The towering snow-like bodies and skin as smooth as cream were all obtained through practicing evil skills.
"Where did Shen Yunheng find such a disgusting person?" Anger flashed in Shen Yunxiao's cold eyes.
"It seems this former crown prince is no pushover. The internal turmoil in Da Rui is fine, but he absolutely shouldn't be trying to win over other countries to deal with the Da Rui Dynasty!"
The Minister of the Dali Temple originally stood on the side of the former crown prince, but when the two princes were fighting for the throne, he did not take the initiative to take sides, and secretly hoped that the former crown prince would ascend the throne.
Because everything the former crown prince showed was in line with the requirements of a wise ruler.
But he didn't expect that reality would give him a big slap in the face.
He actually likes Shen Yunxiao more and more now.
