Chapter 250: Great Victory on the Front Line, the Government and the People Are Excited, the Remnants of the Demonic Kingdom Appear in the East Palace, and the Prince's Mansion Is Under House Arrest

At Mao hour, the sky is dark and bright.

There is still some time until morning.

Emperor Yong'an was wearing a dragon robe and a nine-wire imperial crown on his head. He looked majestic and majestic. He stood with his hands behind his back, standing in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the wrinkles on his face, and his brows were filled with sadness.

"The prince will return to Beijing today. How long will it take for the latest battle report to arrive?"

He asked the old eunuch on the side with a calm word.

"Your Majesty, the prince will return to the capital in the next few days. As for the battle report, it will be announced to the capital this morning." Eunuch Yan replied respectfully.

"snort!"

A cold snort that penetrated people's hearts caused the temperature of the entire hall to drop a few points, and cold sweat broke out on Eunuch Yan's forehead.

"Why did he win?"

Emperor Yong'an squinted his eyes and looked at the towering Great Flame Dragon Wall not far away, thinking: "What on earth did this child experience in the Great Thousand Canglan Map?"

Eunuch Yan reminded: "It is rumored that the people who come out of this picture are all extraordinary. I am afraid that His Highness the Crown Prince will have new adventures."

After a long time, no voice was heard.

Emperor Yong'an turned around and returned to the palace. Eunuch Yan was about to follow, but Emperor Yong'an's majestic and cold voice came to his ears: "Just guard at the door."

Eunuch Yan bowed and stopped outside.

After entering the deep palace, Emperor Yong'an walked on the simple and elegant floor, his eyes flashing constantly, as if he was weighing something and making an important decision.

He came to the study room, followed an area decorated with jade along the edge of the wall, and pressed it with his hand.

"Wow!"

The jade stone in front of him suddenly bloomed with a faint brilliance, and the light turned into lines, wandering on the wall into paintings, and finally formed a lifelike dragon pattern.

After the golden dragon pattern was formed, a light curtain formed in front of his eyes, and a passage appeared.

Emperor Yong'an walked straight in, the light curtain behind him rippled, and he quickly closed it.

The way forward.

Until a black magic bead that resembled a luminous bead appeared in front of him. It was about the size of a fist and emitted a green light. It looked extremely sinister and had an inexplicable evil nature. It seemed that being contaminated by it would lead to misfortune.

"Priest Wu, why can't you even defeat a mere prince? In that case, don't blame me for not keeping my word."

Emperor Yong'an said to himself in a cold tone.

This object is a sacred object of the Witch Clan, dating back to the earliest times. It is a treasure given by the ancient god Shengming. This bead is the heart of an ancient god and contains unparalleled divine power.

Emperor Yong'an let go of the black divine bead. It did not fall to the ground, but emitted pure essence like a dark light and entered Emperor Yong'an's body.

Just a trace of energy made Emperor Yong'an's white hair turn a lot darker.

But immediately after, a black tadpole curse mark in the shape of a fighting snake appeared on Emperor Yong'an's neck and disappeared in a flash.

It seemed like it was tainted with some kind of curse.

Vaguely, Emperor Yong'an heard the roaring and painful dragon roar coming from the ground of the Great Flame Dragon Veins.

The black divine bead became deeper and deeper, and a huge vortex appeared in the center, absorbing all the luck around it.

Only Qi practitioners who have mastered the art of looking at Qi can see that the rich imperial Qi in the palace has become much thinner.

Emperor Yong'an put down the divine bead, with a rather unwilling look in his eyes: "Although this thing can prolong life, the side effects are too great. After all, it belongs to the witch. If I want to completely control this divine bead, I need more luck to fill it up."

"The development of Dayan's national destiny has gone through troughs and peaks until now. If the transfer continues, it will cause great changes and the national destiny will collapse. The plan that was finalized before is almost about to be implemented. Once the six sons return to Beijing , it must be implemented immediately and announced to the world.”

"So what if you take back Qi Xingyan's coffin, this world is still my world after all. Your life or death is not my decision, and everyone in the world is still on my side."

Emperor Yong'an curled up his lips, chuckled, and left the secret room.

It was still dark, and the sky was shimmering with light blue.

The Imperial Guards at the Imperial City Gate yawned, and it was finally time to change their shifts.

However, a whip-swept horse carrying a military report had already galloped into the capital, bringing a little shock to the Imperial Capital in the early morning.

"Quick report from the front line eight thousand miles away!"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince has won a great victory! The Demon Kingdom has withdrawn its troops!"

The soldier on horseback had a tired face, but he could not resist the excitement. He passed through the twenty-one passes in the north, the seven continents and fourteen counties, and finally brought the news back to Dayan Capital.

As soon as this news appeared.

The Imperial Guards guarding the door were stunned in place.

The commanders of the imperial guards around him all had similar reactions.

They were surprised and confused.

Was the battle won on the front line?

Good news!

As soldiers, they were naturally happy to hear such good news.

"I didn't expect that the army led by His Highness the Crown Prince really won the battle. I had questioned him before, and he didn't know how to use troops." A deputy commander of the Forbidden Army said first.

"Yeah, I'm not yet. Such good news should be known to more people. With the recent curfew in the capital, such a big victory is enough to clear away the haze in the capital."

Only half a day.

News of the great victory on the front line spread throughout Kyoto.

Among them, the most excited ones are undoubtedly the girls from the East Palace, including Lu Mingyuan's mother, Wang Zhaoyan, the maid Yun Qinghe, and the two princes, Huo Hongling and Qi Muxue.

Today, the East Palace Mansion is becoming more and more prosperous.

More and more monks are defecting to it, which shows everyone's recognition of the current prince.

In the East Palace, Wang Zhaoyan sat on the main seat and announced the good news to the many worshippers below, including the monks of the Wang family.

"Great! Yuan'er won the battle. Next, he will definitely be one step closer to the throne. Who in the capital can shake his position?"

Yaoguang Imperial Concubine, Wang Zhaoyan heard the news early in the morning and immediately came to the imperial city. She told all the relatives inside and outside.

Her son is promising, so as a mother, can't she praise him?

The head of the Wang family, the former prime minister Wang Hefu, also laughed and stroked his beard and said:

"I have said it before, it should not be wrong to choose to believe. Yuan'er seems to be mediocre on the surface, but in fact he is very powerful and has the support of many forces. How could anything go wrong?"

The beautiful and moving Huo Hongling with rosy lips smiled at Qi Muxue and said: "Your Highness has now completely secured the position of the crown prince. The next step is to wait for the succession."

"It seems that the position of the queen must belong to my sister."

"Queen."

Qi Muxue seemed to have not recovered from this news. Perhaps she did not expect that one day she would be able to sit on the position of queen.

To be honest, when she was with Lu Mingyuan at the beginning, her real purpose was not to be a queen.

But she hoped to stay with Lu Mingyuan forever.

But if Lu Mingyuan could sit on the dragon throne and rule the world, she would be very happy.

Now, her father has left.

The one she cares about most is Lu Mingyuan.

Next, Qi Muxue's goal is to take over the mission of her father, the Saint of Etiquette, and carry forward the study of etiquette in the contemporary era.

The responsibility on her shoulders is very heavy.

While everyone was having fun, the guards in the East Palace heard the whistle alarm.

"An outsider has trespassed into the East Palace!"

"It's an assassin, arrest him immediately!"

Teams of armored imperial guards quickly rushed into the backyard of the East Palace, but were blown away by waves of huge air.

"What's going on?"

Wang Zhaoyan called the leader of the East Palace to question the matter.

The leader of the Eastern Palace broke out in a cold sweat and explained, "A few days ago, a group of monks who claimed to be friends of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came with the Crown Prince's talisman, so I let them in. But who would have thought that these people actually poisoned the well water of the Eastern Palace. Fortunately, we found out."

"It's just that the cultivation of these monks is not low, and it takes some effort to arrest them."

Wang Zhaoyan said coldly to the many monks behind him, "You go to assist the guards of the Eastern Palace and arrest suspicious people."

"Yes!"

The Wujian Pavilion monks who came to surrender, led by Yun Qinghe temporarily, turned into multiple rainbow lights and shot towards the harem.

Yun Qinghe's eyes were extremely cold. Lu Mingyuan had just won a great victory, and the news had just entered the capital, and such a thing happened in the Eastern Palace. It was too suspicious.

Could it be that someone was targeting the Eastern Palace?

She felt something was wrong.

Yun Qinghe arrived first and found a group of suspicious black-robed men wearing beast masks, fighting with many guards.

The guards selected by the Eastern Palace were not low in cultivation. They were completely in accordance with the configuration of the imperial palace. They were powerful grandmasters and fifth-grade cultivators. How could they not be able to take down a small assassin?

She stared at the black-clothed man with a rat head in the lead. The helmet on his head was a bronze rat head. There were no holes for the eyes, which looked very strange.

These black-clothed men were all dressed like this.

Some were chicken heads, rabbit heads, and dog heads. Anyway, they were the heads of various beasts.

A huge purple flame flywheel appeared in the palm of the black-clothed man with a rat head.

In an instant, the flywheel became extremely large.

A sky-high demonic energy surged out of the flywheel, immediately sweeping the entire Eastern Palace, causing chaos on the scene.

Yun Qinghe drew his sword and displayed his flying sword magic. He wanted to kill this man with a sword, but was blocked by a solid iron fan, making a "ding dong" sound.

Then he quickly fell backwards, as if he was defeated.

Such a scene made her eyes stagnate slightly.

Her cultivation and strength are at the top of the ten realms. Even the ordinary eleventh realm is difficult to resist. Vomiting blood is the least of it. This little assassin has such a high cultivation?

He can actually block her attack.

If it is really so high, why is he still wandering in the East Palace? Why not run away?

These assassins don’t seem to be very strong. After a while, they were all defeated one by one.

But everyone was annoyed by this group of black-clothed people.

Fortunately, the East Palace’s formation slowly started, triggering the blood-gluttonous shadow warriors of the East Palace.

The four East Palace’s worshippers who were familiar with the profound knowledge also took action one after another and took down all these guys.

Yang Jian, the butcher, the Zen master Fahai, the Taoist master Zhao Gongming, and Zhang Jue, the great sage teacher.

Without Lu Mingyuan's control, the Blood-Tasting Shadow Warriors could only act on their own instincts, and their simple and rough attacks, that is, their existence, could let Lu Mingyuan know what happened in the Eastern Palace.

It was a means of survival that Lu Mingyuan left for his mother and the girls.

The rat-headed black-clothed man did not expect that the several worshippers who suddenly appeared in front of him were so powerful, surpassing most of the strong men in front, and his men were quickly captured.

"The Lighting Division is here! The traitors are not rampant!"

"There are evildoers lurking in the Eastern Palace. We cannot tolerate it. We will try to catch them alive!"

The movement in the Eastern Palace was so loud that it had attracted the attention of the Lighting Division and the monks of the Three Academy.

Yun Qinghe looked at the girls and couldn't help but ask: "Which lady called the Imperial Lighting Department to come for help?"

Qi Muxue nodded slightly: "I just passed the message in a flying pigeon, but in just half a stick of incense, the Ming Deng Department arrived. The Ming Deng Office seems to be on the side of the north gate of the inner city, and the speed is really fast."

Huo Hongling thought: "Maybe it's because the East Palace is extremely important, so there are many Ming Deng Si Jinyi squatting nearby. As long as there is any movement, it can be quickly detected."

Yun Qinghe secretly shook his head.

The assassin came out on the front foot, and the Lighting Division on the back foot came with people.

It's a bit like a thief shouting to catch a thief.

It's just too much of a coincidence.

After a while, the commander of the Ming Deng Division came to Wang Zhaoyan, cupped his fists and said:

"Reporting to the Queen, all the thieves have been killed!"

In fact, they didn't do anything, everything had already been done by the Blood Gluttonous Shadow Warrior.

"We must find out the origins of these assassins. If you dare to sneak into the East Palace, you are really tired of living!"

Wang Zhaoyan would not give the commander of the Lighting Department a good look, so she would naturally look as ugly as possible.

"yes!"

This incident was like a small episode, seemingly nothing noteworthy.

But within a few days, shocking news came out in the Imperial Capital.

After interrogating and searching the soul of the assassin that day, the Lighting Division spoke.

These black-clothed men bear the marks of divine patterns that Sheng Ming believes in. It is obvious that they are all from the Demon Kingdom.

This time I sneaked into Dayan just for the sake of Prince Dayan.

In other words, they are all spies sent by the Demon Kingdom.

When the Holy Emperor learned of this, he was furious. He paid special attention to the matter and asked the cabinet to investigate thoroughly at all costs.

The cabinet issued a solemn order to thoroughly investigate all the spies of the Demon Kingdom in the capital, and not allow people from the Demon Kingdom to infiltrate into Dayan.

The Ming Deng Division went out at night, walking through the streets and alleys, and investigated the residences of many noble families. Sure enough, similar spies from the Demon Kingdom appeared in the homes of other noble families, including many people from the Great Underworld who bore the mark of the divine pattern.

They are all spies sent by the Demon Kingdom and lurking in the capital.

The matter became more and more serious, and the mansions of many wealthy families were sealed.

For a time, everyone was in danger.

This turmoil even involved the Donggong Mansion.

After all, the East Palace was the first place where spies from the Demon Kingdom were found, and it was the most suspicious.

Wang Zhaoyan, Qi Muxue and others watched helplessly as the door to the glorious East Palace Palace was closed.

Three days after that incident, they were all placed under house arrest in the Donggong Mansion and were not allowed to leave the house until the investigation was clear.

"The Holy One has decreed that there are remnants of the Demon Kingdom in the East Palace. Before the truth is investigated, all those involved in this matter will be investigated. Madams, I hope you can understand. We are also following orders!"

The top leader of the Ming Deng Division, Wang Xiao, the envoy of the Ming Deng Division, came to the East Palace to apologize in person.

The Ming Deng Division is the personal guard of the Holy Emperor. They only obey the Holy Emperor's orders and monitor the capital, so no matter who they are, they dare not provoke them, but the East Palace Mansion said otherwise.

After all, now that the prince has returned from victory and is in the limelight, no one dares to offend him.

But who would have thought that something like this would happen.
