Chapter 1267
On the third day of the New Year Festival, the people finally began to walk in the imperial capital. The soldiers who had been patrolling the imperial capital also recovered their usual number, and everything seemed to have recovered.
Because they were able to go out, all the people immediately began to visit and ask for information, wanting to know what happened in the imperial capital in the past two days and why such a tense situation occurred. But most people were locked in their homes, how could they know the real news?
It was not until after Wei Shi that news began to spread in the imperial capital.
It is said that on the day of the New Year Festival, someone used demon magic to destroy the dynasty's energy and fortune this year, so the dark clouds appeared in the sky. After that, the National Master brought countless Taoists to fight against the demons, which made the emperor return to normal.
As for the subsequent martial law in the imperial capital, it was precisely because of the monsters who had escaped the net.
There is another saying that on the day of the New Year Festival, a thief appeared in the imperial capital. Taking advantage of the great changes in the sky, I wanted to commit rebellion, but I was considered to be in trouble by the National Master. Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor arranged so many guards, and the soldiers inspected the imperial capital, hoping to capture these thiefs!
Now two days have passed, and all these rebels have been caught, so the people in the imperial capital have been allowed to go out for activities!
"This is all rumor! Is it true?"
In a restaurant in the imperial capital, the people who were imprisoned for two days gathered here. Listening to the two news from the storyteller, he couldn't help but shout, "Is this all heard, but there is no definite news?"
"Yes! Is there any evidence to bring it out!"
"Everyone, I have no choice!" The storyteller waved his hand, looked embarrassed, and said to everyone: "These two news have been found for me for a lot of effort... It is just to let you understand the situation in the imperial capital these two days. If you really want to tell the exact news, it is not something that ordinary people like us can find out!"
"Maybe, in a few days, there will be a definite news! No matter how many you guys, wait!"
"I still have to wait!" Everyone in the restaurant couldn't help but scream...
"Who has any news? Take this opportunity to say it out to satisfy everyone's cravings!"
"Yes! Who knows something else? Tell me!"
For a moment, the restaurant became chaotic, and even the waiter's shouts and inquiries could not be heard.
But on the second floor at this moment, the former crown prince's face was so dark that he couldn't see it!
"Everyone, are you leaving?"
"Yes, Your Highness, you can't contact me anymore!" The person who followed the former prince also looked embarrassed and lowered his head and replied: "Those families who sent letters left the imperial capital at the time they said! No one was blocking them at the city gate..."
"No one left?" the former prince couldn't help but gritted his teeth and asked.
"There are only two families left...but they have no staff in this imperial capital, and they have been guarding their shops these two days!" Another person in the house quickly replied, looking at the former prince's ugly face, and couldn't help but suggest: "Your Highness, the man in the palace has set up so many people in the past two days. He seems to be looking for someone, but in fact he is just pretending to be in this imperial capital... Now that he has left so many families, his subordinates don't know if the man in this palace already knows something and has sent someone to see them!"
"Do you have any news?" When the former prince heard this, he couldn't help but frown and looked at the person who spoke. Looking at his embarrassed expression, he could only take a deep breath and say, "I know what, say!"
"Your Highness! I just heard that before those families left, they seemed to have sent people to the palace gate to ask for peace... But the one in the palace had no intention of seeing them, so he just sent a eunuch to help pass the message, and then asked them to go back!"
"Do you want to say that they sent messages to the man in the palace? They left the capital safely?" The former prince's heart couldn't help but sink. After watching the man nodding hesitantly, he couldn't help but throw all the cups on the table to the ground in anger, and said angrily: "This is impossible! It's just a small mistake on the New Year Festival, and it didn't affect the overall situation. What are they afraid of?"
"This year is not possible, isn't there any next year? I can wait, what can they not wait?"
"His highness, please calm down!"
When everyone in the house saw this situation, they couldn't help but kneel on the ground and persuaded them.
"Your Highness, for the sake of our plan, we must make a good plan!"
"All the others have left. If we stay, there will be dangers! Your Highness, why don't we leave the capital earlier!"
"You let me go?" The former prince couldn't help but stare and asked at the people kneeling in front of him, "I entered the imperial capital this year. It should be the time for me to change the day, but now it's this situation. Do you still want me to escape? Even if I want to leave, I have to wait in this imperial capital, watch, and leave when I want to leave!"
"But your Highness... If those families really send news to the one in the palace, countless soldiers will definitely come to us! The lives of our subordinates are not important, but you cannot make any mistakes!"
"Yes! Your Highness! Didn't you say that? This year doesn't work, we'll wait for next year! You are the true emperor of destiny, and you must be able to return to the palace and pull down the man in the palace!"
"Your Highness, it's only one year!"
The former prince gritted his teeth and sat silently in the spot for a long time. Then he nodded and said to everyone: "Forget it... let's follow you! Let's go back!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" When everyone in the house heard this, they couldn't help but thank the former crown prince in surprise, and immediately began to discuss their plans to leave the imperial capital.
But they never expected that before they had discussed a complete solution in this restaurant, someone knocked on their door outside the house, which scared everyone to the alert.
"who?"
"May I ask, is Mr. Xiao inside?" A male voice came from outside the house. After hearing the answer from the people in the house, he quickly replied: "I am here to send a message to Mr. Xiao for our son!"
"Word message? What message?" Everyone in the room looked puzzled.
