Chapter 29 Accidents
"No one knows about government affairs all day long, if the sage is wise, the world will be peaceful." Xie Chengbin said as he took out half of his jade pendant from his arms and took a step forward to connect with the old man's jade pendant.
The two broken jade pendants combined together just form a complete jade pendant. The pattern in the jade pendant is a wolf screaming at the moon.
"Those who see this jade are like a saint... It's been twenty years since the saint! The saint has finally sent someone!" The old man was extremely excited, his eyes were a little wet, and even his voice was trembling. As he said that, he knelt heavily in front of Xie Chengbin. "The sinner bowed to the emperor!"
Seeing the old man kneeling, all the soldiers around him and the archers on the second floor also knelt down.
"I guess you are the commander, have the little prince found it?" Xie Chengbin said as he helped the old man up. Looking at the white-haired old man in front of him, Xie Chengbin couldn't help but feel respectful. Even if he was at the end of the road, he was still so loyal to his master. Even if Guan Yu came, he would be moved by it.
During the secret passage, according to the old man, twenty years ago, the old man was the emperor of this empire. At that time, the eldest prince usurped the throne and seized power. The two sides fought fiercely for three days and three nights. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the old man ordered the commander at that time to lead other princes out of the palace, hoping to make a comeback in the future. Unexpectedly, someone from the commander's subordinates rebelled and the plan was learned by the other party, which led to repeated defeats and eventually failed to form a defeat. The old man could not escape and was captured alive. Almost all the princes were murdered, but the whereabouts of the prince who was escorted by the commander himself were unknown.
"The criminal minister is incompetent and still cannot find His Highness the Little Prince." The old man's face was full of shame.
"I don't understand one thing. Since the little prince you escorted is not dead, why is his whereabouts unknown?" It was really embarrassing for Xie Chengbin. After all, this is not his goodness.
The old man felt sad again when he heard this, and he was silent for a moment before answering. "The situation was very complicated at that time. My subordinates fled and they were scattered. I myself had the clay Buddha crossed the river, and I really had no ability to protect His Highness the little prince, so I secretly put His Highness in the house of a commoner, thinking that he would come and take him away after the wind was heard. Who knew that when he went there a few days later, the people in the family were gone, and His Highness the little prince was missing from now on, so I sent someone to do evil and told the Lord the news when my subordinates were locked in the dungeon."
"Chengbin!" Suddenly, a scream came from the sound of everyone looking for each other. The man was Mo Xiaoling! I saw Mo Xiaoling jumping and waveing to this side, as if she was afraid that Xie Chengbin would not be able to see it.
"Xiaoling?!" Xie Chengbin couldn't help but blurted out, not expecting that she would be here.
Soon, Taylor and Mo Xiaoling came downstairs. Mo Xiaoling rushed into Xie Chengbin's arms in three steps and cried bitterly. "Woooo... I thought I would never see you again."
At this moment, Milana's fingers clenched her fist tightly were almost inserted into the flesh of her palm. Her heart seemed to be sucked hard, and she was so difficult that she could hardly breathe. She was very sad and angry at the same time. She wanted to slap the woman in the face, but was worried that Xie Chengbin would hate her because of this, so she could only endure it silently.
"Why are you here?" Xie Chengbin was most disgusted with women crying. When he saw women crying, he would be panicked.
Mo Xiaoling sobbed and told Xie Chengbin what happened yesterday.
It turned out that at noon today, the officers and soldiers entered the inn to search. Several of them had bad ideas when they saw Mo Xiaoling being beautiful. Thanks to Taro's life to save him and drove away the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers made a comeback not long after they left and brought more officers and soldiers. The two sides fought fiercely again, Taro's two fists were defeated by four hands, and it was thanks to the passing commander who drew his sword to help them avoid bad luck.
Coincidentally, this white-haired commander turned out to be Taro's uncle, named Tigra. Although Tigra is no longer the commander of the Imperial Guards back then, his integrity makes everyone respect him very much and always calls him the commander.
"This time, thanks to the commander, I am really grateful!" After listening to Mo Xiaoling's story, Xie Chengbin saluted the old man.
"I dare not take it, but I dare not take it." The old man originally thought that Mo Xiaoling was Taylor's lover, but he didn't expect that he was someone else's wife after a long time. The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he had to change the topic. "I don't know what order the emperor asked the messenger to send? We will do our best to complete it."
"The Lord asked us to abolish the foolish monarch and make the little prince the emperor." Xie Chengbin felt dizzy when he thought of this difficult task.
The commander frowned when he heard this, and his expression seemed very embarrassed. "This... let alone how to abolish the foolish monarch, now the little prince has no news. Where can I find the new emperor?"
"That's not simple. Since we can't find the little prince, let's just find someone to replace him. Anyway, you escorted the little prince back then, and others couldn't see it. As for the candidate, it's all right. "Xie Chengbin said and pointed at Taylor.
"This..." I don't know if it was because of Xie Chengbin's hastyness or because he just found someone to be the emperor, but in short, the commander was stunned.
Others also found it incredible, especially the person involved, Taylor, who thought this idea was too crazy!
"I'm afraid this is not possible? Not to mention that I am no longer the commander of the great commander of the past, few ministers in the palace recognize me. Even if I am the commander, not many people will convince me just by what I say." The commander is worthy of being a person who has experienced great storms and has considered things very thoughtful.
Xie Chengbin gritted his teeth and took out a dragon ball from his arms. "If you add this, will you be convinced enough?"
"Dragon Ball!" The commander obviously did not expect Xie Chengbin to have such a trick. He nodded as if he was shocked. "Enough is enough, nothing is more convincing than Dragon Ball."
"My idea is to capture the thief first, and sneak into the palace on the grounds of finding the Dragon Ball. When I saw the emperor, I suddenly attacked and took the emperor down in one fell swoop!" Xie Chengbin said his plan seriously. After saying that, he suddenly realized something, so he added. "Oh, by the way, how many people do we have?"
"Except for those who are performing tasks outside, there are currently about 100 people. These are all carefully cultivated by me and can be regarded as the elite among the elite." The commander said the truth without thinking.
"I'm going too." Suddenly, Milana and Taylor said in unison.
"No!" Xie Chengbin and the commander refused at the same time. The difference was that Xie Chengbin's tone was decisive, and the commander almost screamed out.
Seeing that many people were scared by themselves, the commander realized the rudeness and quickly pulled Taro aside. "This mission is very dangerous and even a life-threatening death. If you have any problems, how can I explain to your father who is in the dark?"
Xie Chengbin looked at Milana with a complicated expression, and hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "You shouldn't go?"
"But..." Since Mo Xiaoling was right next to her, Milana couldn't say something, and she felt wronged and worried.
At this time, the commander came over. "When will you leave?"
"Now!"
There were many imperial guards standing at the north gate of the palace. It was no exaggeration to say that it was the third floor inside and the third floor outside. It was a very strict guard.
Suddenly a large group of people came from outside the door, and the two led were a barefoot young man and a white-haired old man.
"The person who comes is stopping! The palace is important, and idlers are not allowed to enter!" The commander on duty solemnly stopped the other party.
The old man stepped forward and bowed, "I came here this time to present treasures to the emperor, I hope you don't want to stop me."
"At this time, the emperor has gone to bed, and it will not be too late to come again tomorrow." The commander had no intention of letting go.
No wonder, the emperor is in a bad mood recently and is often arrested and executed. Those who are doing business in the palace have to be motivated. If it disturbs the emperor's rest and makes the emperor angry again, a lot of people will finish playing.
"Is this true even if the dragon ball is presented?" The bald young man took out a glowing dragon ball, and instantly attracted all the nearby imperial guards' eyes. "If the lost dragon ball is driven away by a small imperial guards' commander, I wonder what the emperor's expression will be after hearing the news?"
Perhaps the commander realized how serious the consequences were, and was frightened and sweated coldly on his forehead. "Even so, there is no need to enter the palace to offer gifts."
"That's not possible. The dragon ball is not owned by me, but the things of everyone. If you don't let others enter the palace, you don't offer gifts." After saying that, the bald young man was about to turn around and leave.
"Let's go!" The commander gritted his teeth and stared at the bald young man fiercely, as if he was saying that he was ruthless. "Let's go!"
More than a hundred people were placed in the palace and walked through the vast square to the Majestic Palace.
Someone has already reported it, and the only thing he can do now is wait. It is worthy of being the place where the emperor holds a meeting, and it accommodates a hundred people without any crowds.
The critical moment is coming soon. As long as the emperor is killed, everything will end. But for some reason, Xie Chengbin has an unknown premonition, and this premonition is getting stronger and stronger.
"The Emperor is here!"
Soon a group of people walked in through the side door. The leader was a man wearing a maroon robe. It seemed that he was probably the emperor.
