Fast Travel Counterattack: Male God, super awesome

Chapter 178 The Nong Empress 7
Lian Cheng hadn't seen Lian Cheng for a long time, and Liu Jue showed such an expression.

Let her understand that Liu Jue is actually the cold-blooded and sharp prince most of the time, not the prince who can sit with her in the small courtyard for an entire afternoon.

"Third Prince, you did such a thing, killing a royal brother, it is simply, simply unacceptable under the law of the country!" When everyone calmed down, an old minister was the first to attack.

"The crime of regicide is something everyone can punish. Did this king violate the law of the country?" Liu Jue's voice was sharp and firm.

"This……"

"Where is the imperial edict?"

"Here is the imperial edict!" The little eunuch beside him hastily leaned over and handed over the imperial edict.Lian Cheng took a moment to see that the blood in the hall was so full that it was almost flowing to the doorstep.

All the veterans gathered around to watch.

"This edict..." Someone raised an objection: "It doesn't look like the handwriting of the Holy One..."

"The emperor issued the imperial edict when he was in danger. It is common for him to be seriously ill and have unstable hands. Lords, be careful." The little eunuch next to him lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head.

"Nonsense!" A minister finally broke out: "Master Huo hasn't come yet, the veteran of the three dynasties, wait for Master Huo to come before we can make a conclusion."

"It's a joke." Liu Jue said, "I am the Mandate of Heaven, and I still have to wait for my courtiers to make a decision? Those who refuse to accept will be detained pending trial."

Everyone in the court was shocked.All the ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all panicked with fright.Lian Cheng hid behind the maid, and suddenly heard someone coming from outside the door to communicate: "Report to Your Majesty, Mr. Huo intends to lead troops to rebel, and has been executed outside the palace!"

"You!" The minister who was the first to explode was almost breathless, pointing at Liu Jue and said, "You have already made arrangements!"

"In Lord Huo's hands... there is... an imperial decree..."

"Put it on!" Liu Jue's tone became more serious, and everyone around him locked up those disobedient courtiers, and the imperial guards joined him.

Lian Cheng also understood that Liu must have known in advance that the real holy decree was held in the hand of the three-dynasty elder Huo.And it definitely wasn't his name.

So he took the initiative and killed all the threatening princes in the palace, leaving no one in the court to rely on.At the same time, the other side mutinied and killed Mr. Huo who was holding the real imperial decree.

This soldier makes a dangerous move and cannot make a single mistake.Being a prince really means risking your life.However, this is also in line with Liu Jue's positioning in Lian Cheng's heart.

He is such a person.If others don't die, he dies.

Seeing this, even Cheng believed a little, even if she hadn't come here, the throne would still be as good as before.

After the chaos in the court, the blood in front of the court flowed down, staining the stairs red.

Liu Jue glanced at the court ladies and eunuchs around, the ministers had finished dealing with them, and the rest was to deal with these people.

The palace maids and eunuchs were trembling one by one. Seeing today's scene, they might not be able to survive.And Lian Cheng was mixing with this group of people, unable to escape.

"Kill them all." Liu Jue said, and the secret guards who appeared around them began to deal with these people.

When it was Liancheng, she grabbed the guard with one grabbing hand, grabbed the knife back, and cut the guard's Tesudon while bowing her head. When the guard in front of her couldn't use her strength to chase her, the other guards didn't react at all. But when the time came, Lian Cheng quickly jumped up the wall and ran away.

"Your Majesty!" The leader of the dark guard sent someone to chase after him, and then he knelt down in front of Liu Jue.

It was really a huge sin for His Majesty the Emperor to see the assassin hiding beside him and let him escape.

Liu Jue's face was very ugly, but he didn't blame the leader of the dark guard.He said, "That man, have you seen it before?"

The leader of the dark guards immediately understood what he meant: "Look at his body, he is the same person from before!"

Liu Jue's eyes darkened.

"Your Majesty, we..." The leader of the dark guard asked Liu Jue, not knowing what to do.

"Can be captured alive," Liu Jue thought for a moment and said, "Ask who is behind him. If you can't capture him alive..."

"Then kill it. Don't leave hidden dangers."

No matter how much that person had helped them, she definitely knew too much.Liu absolutely cannot trust such a person to live in a place that he cannot control.

It took a lot of effort for Lian Cheng to get rid of the hidden guard.I was careless this time, the palace is too dangerous, not to mention the layout of the palace is easy to defend and difficult to attack, making it difficult to escape.What's more, there are many great masters.This time, she wanted to escape without showing her face in front of the newly promoted emperor, but it was still more difficult.

In order to get rid of those people and not reveal his identity, Lian Cheng did not go back to the palace directly. Instead, he took those people out of the city and went around the perimeter of the imperial city several times before getting rid of those people.

Lian Cheng couldn't go back home immediately, so he could only stay in the woods outside the imperial city for one night.Mix in with the newcomers the next day.

And Liu Jue naturally went back before her.

After returning to the mansion, Liu Jue walked around and asked the housekeeper, "Where is she?"

The housekeeper knew who "she" Liu Jue was talking about without asking.Liu Jue would only ask about Lian Cheng's news, and would only go to Lian Cheng's small yard.

However, every time they sit in the courtyard and just chat, the housekeeper doesn't know.

"I didn't see it, maybe it's still resting in the house." The housekeeper replied truthfully.

Liu Jue frowned, and the peak of her beautiful eyebrows suddenly rose.

I just went to her yard and there was no one there.

Liu Jue thought again and again, wasting every second of his precious time, and went to Xiaohua's yard.

"Where is she? Have you seen where she...Ji Liancheng went?"

Xiaohua was terrified when she saw Liu Jue, she just shook her head repeatedly: "I didn't see it, I didn't see it." Lian Cheng told her before, and anyone who asked would say that she didn't see it.

Because Xiaohua and Lian Cheng looked familiar, but no one knew about their previous relationship, so everyone thought they were just acquaintances.It’s normal for Xiaohua not to know.

Liu Juexin gradually sank.

Was he kidnapped?Won't.If that group of people kidnaps him, they won't kidnap Lian Cheng, who seems to have nothing to do with him.Liu Jue never told anyone that Lian Cheng had saved his life.To outsiders, Lian Cheng was just a commoner woman he had taken a liking to and brought into his house.

In comparison, Xiaohua contributed to Liujue's contribution to winning the frontier defense map. No matter how she looks at it, she has a greater influence on Liujue than Liancheng.

While Xiaohua is still staying here, Liancheng is gone.

Not hijacking.Then Liu Jue could only think of one reason.

That is, she walked by herself.

Liu Jue didn't prohibit Lian Cheng from traveling, and didn't put her under house arrest in a small courtyard, so she didn't need to notify anyone about her usual trips.The biggest possibility now is that Lian Cheng fled alone.

Or, she is a spy sent by outsiders.

Or, after hearing the news that he had entered the palace, he felt that the danger was too great and escaped on his own in advance.

Both are possible.

Liu Jue thought rationally, but the increasingly sinking sun wore down his temper.

At times like this, the best thing to do is to ignore it.He doesn't have time to deal with this kind of chicken and dog robbery now, he has more important things to deal with.

but.

Liu Jue called the housekeeper: "Ask someone to look for it, and search the whole city. She should not have left the city yet, and she has searched every corner to find someone for me!"

He cannot allow traitors.Liu Jue said so to herself.
