Once upon a time there was an Uchiha

Chapter 224
The little emperor didn't know what the purpose of the mysterious boy in front of him was, and he was a little puzzled.

Uchiha Lihuo smiled and turned his head away, and said: "This noble family has been wiped out by night raids, there is no need for you, little emperor."

"Your Excellency, is this a crime for a night attack?" The little emperor looked at Uchiha Lihuo, dissatisfied: "Although this nobleman is guilty, he should be judged by the imperial law, instead of abusing lynching and despising the majesty of the empire."

Uchiha Lihuo smiled, not answering this question.

Even after going through the battle to seize the throne, the little emperor is still very naive, thinking that the current imperial law can still play its due role, but in the hands of the ministers, the law is just a tool to consolidate his power and suppress dissidents.

If it wasn't for the fact that the empire still has the loyalty to support the royal family, and the strongest Teigu in the empire needs to be activated by the blood of the royal family, I am afraid that the ambitious minister would have already sought power to usurp the throne and become the new emperor.

It's a pity that the little emperor, who is addicted to himself and thinks that his ministers are loyal, can't think of this. After all, he is still very young in front of the occupation of the empire.

Arriving in the world of Zanmei, Uchiha Lihuo has no idea of ​​helping the Revolutionary Army or the Empire, he wants to get the treasure that is only in this world, Teigu.

But on the way to collect Teigu, it's okay to occasionally experience some small episodes. It is part of his plan to replace the little emperor with a blood clone.

The silence of the mysterious man left the little emperor at a loss as to what to do. He wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but he recalled his ability to appear and disappear in the court, and then thought of the fact that he had no power to restrain the chicken, so he resolutely gave up.

With a snap of his fingers, Uchiha Lihuo activated the ability of blood ghost art, and returned to the Infinite City, and the little emperor gave up resistance when he realized that he could not escape.

The next moment, the little emperor and Uchiha Lihuo were in the temporary residence.

Iyeas and Shayou, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted them, and found the little emperor wearing a luxurious dress beside him.

"This is your next companion. Take good care of him. The standard of living is the same as your previous living arrangement in the village."

Before asking any questions, Uchiha Lihuo answered for Iyeas and Shayu.

"Yes." The two nodded, their gazes flicked up and down on the little emperor, guessing in their hearts who had entered the adult's eyes again.

The little emperor also looked at the two of them. Unlike the mysterious Uchiha Lihuo, Iyeas and Shayou at least looked like imperial people, and their clothes looked like low-level civilians, a little messy.

"Come with me." Shayou said to the little emperor, leading him into the mansion.

The little emperor, who had been reduced to a prisoner, naturally had no choice but to follow obediently. He faintly felt that the girl in front of him was not easy to provoke, and she exuded the same powerful aura as an imperial general.

The little emperor's perception was correct. After being transformed into ghosts, Shayou and Iyeas, two young men from the countryside, had greatly improved in strength and had already reached the level of a Tegu envoy.

After Shayou and the little emperor left, Iyeyas stayed where he was and began to report the information in the city to Uchiha Lihuo.

After listening carefully, Uchiha Lihuo nodded, while Iyeas stood still and waited for orders.

And Uchiha Lihuo guessed right, the internal corruption of the empire has reached an irreversible point, and with such a little emperor, the thousand-year empire may be over.

Of course, Iyeas inquired more than that. Among the piles of news, the only thing that satisfied Uchiha Lihuo was the movement of the night attack.

According to Iyeyas' observation these days, there is a special place in the slums of the empire. As long as the criminal evidence of the imperial officials and the corresponding rewards are placed there, the night raids will come forward and kill the officials who are at large.

Waving to let Iyeyas come over, Uchiha Lihuo said: "Iyeas, take care of our guest, don't let him leave, his status is very honorable"

The guest naturally refers to the little emperor, and there is no more noble figure in the empire than him.

Iyeas nodded repeatedly. He respected the ruler Uchiha Lihuo from the bottom of his heart. Not only did he save the lives of himself and Shayu, but he also sent a large sum of money back to the village to satisfy their wishes.

Suddenly, Uchiha Lihuo frowned, and then he immediately relaxed.

In addition to Iyeas and Sayu, Uchiha Lihuo also released a lot of shadow clones in the empire, and he just received feedback from one of the shadow clones.

In the city of the imperial capital, the figures of members of the night raid appeared.

On the commercial street of the imperial capital.

Tazmi was walking side by side with Main, but compared to Main who was empty, Tazmi was full of packaged goods.

"I said Ma Yin, boss, isn't it that we collect intelligence within the empire? Why do you buy so many goods?"

Looking at Ma Yin who was buying desserts at the dessert shop, feeling the heavy pressure from her hands, Tatsumi couldn't help complaining.

After being forcibly taken away by Leone, Tatsumi became a member of the night raid members in the kind eyes of the night raid members. After a week of ordinary life, he slightly faded away from the shadow of Alisa's family .

Then, under the boss's flickering, he came to the empire to inquire about information with Ma Yin. .

Sitting at the dining table, Ma Yin took a bite of the dessert with a happy smile on her face, then glanced at Tazmi and said, "Stupid Tazmi, what do you think intelligence gathering is? It can be obtained from the price of goods in the imperial capital." I can see a lot of intelligence inside the empire, and a large part of the goods I buy are necessities of life."

"It's hard to come out, so naturally I have to do some shopping and help the boss choose some gifts."

Tazmi was speechless for a moment, he didn't think about the deep-seated reasons, Ma Yin's words were very reasonable, but why is he taking these things?

hum~
Seeing Tatsumi's impatience, Ma Yin stood up and said, "Tazmi, you wait here, I'll go buy some more things."

Looking at Ma Yin who was going deep into the commercial street, Tatsumi showed a helpless smile. It seems that today's burden will increase again, but this is also because of his newcomer.

Sitting at the dining table, Tatsumi, who had nothing to do, took a bite of the dessert left by Main, and focused on the residents of the imperial capital who came and went.

Different from the first time when he came to see the flowers, Tazmi, who was relieved, saw anxiety and fatigue on the faces of the residents of the imperial capital. Even though they were wearing the clothes that the country people envied, they walked so fast that they had no time to take care of them. surrounding residents.

It seems that the people of the empire are also working hard!Tatsumi sighed.

"Yes, they worked very hard."

And at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Tazmi, sitting in front of the stone chair and eating the snacks in front of him unceremoniously.

Tatsumi glanced back and saw a familiar face.

"Mr. Lihuo, why are you here?" Tatsumi said in surprise, he still had a good impression of Uchiha Lihuo who once lent him money to persuade him to return to the countryside.

Uchiha Lihuo looked at the male protagonist in front of him, and when they first met, Tatsumi had grown a lot, but compared to the others in Night Raid, he was still a little immature.

"What is your goal this time?" Uchiha Lihuo asked casually, even though he already knew the goal of the night attack.

The question of Lihuo made Tazmi stunned, and then he squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "Do you know the identity of Ye Raider?"

Uchiha Lihuo nodded, and said: "There are many rewards for night raids posted in the empire, and a little association can guess the identity of the killer who appeared in Alisa's house that day."

"I see." Tatsumi nodded in the same way.

The matter about Lihuo was actually discussed within Ye Zha. After all, Ye Lihuo saw the true faces of almost all Ye Zha members. If it was revealed to the empire, then no one from Ye Zha would be able to walk normally in the imperial capital. up.

But after not finding any new rewards for night raids on Imperial Avenue for several days in a row, the boss was completely relieved, knowing that Lihuo was not an enemy of the empire, so he sent Tazmi and Ma Yin to go out to collect information.

"Mr. Lihuo, did you see Iyeas and Sayu that day?" After pondering for a while, Tatsumi asked Uchiha Lihuo.

Tatsumi, who did not find the corpse of his companion in the warehouse, thought for a long time in the night attack headquarters and did not give up, and finally set the target on Uchiha Lihuo.

After all, Uchiha Lihuo was full of mystery from the very beginning of his appearance, and he didn't have any doubts about the existence of Alisa's family and even the night raid.

After a pause, Tatsumi hastily repeated the identities of Iyeas and Sayu. He didn't know the whereabouts of his companions, but he couldn't calm down in front of Uchiha Lihuo.

Looking at Tatsumi who was eager to hear the good news, Uchiha Lihuo nodded and said: "When I found them that day, they were already dying, and now they are recuperating in a place."

"That's good, that's good." Tatsumi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and when he wanted to continue to ask about his companion's news, he found that Ma Yin was staring at Uchiha Lihuo, quite jealous.

Through Ma Yin's eyes, Uchiha Lihuo understood that his behavior of appearing in Alisa's family during the night attack had already attracted the other party's attention.

After all, members of the Night Raiders are not visible, and revealing their identities is likely to be a dead end.

In my impression, no members of the Night Raiders have been revealed at this moment. It seems that there are only Tazmi and Ma Yin in front of them, and even Leonai who doesn't know where they are.

Glancing at Ma Yin, who was holding shopping bags in both hands, Uchiha Lihuo really didn't understand where Tegu's [Pumpkin Fortress] could be hidden?
Could it be the bottom of the skirt that can hide everything?

Noticing Uchiha Lihuo's gaze, Ma Yin blushed slightly, but still stared at Lihuo tightly.

"Ma Yin, Mister Lihuo is not an enemy." Tatsumi noticed something strange in the atmosphere, and hurriedly said.

Ma Yin looked at Uchiha Lihuo solemnly, and said: "Tatsumi, the other party's purpose is not clear yet, don't jump to conclusions, maybe he is the lackey of the empire."

Uchiha Lihuo shook his head and said with a smile: "Imperial lackey? I am not, but I am very interested in your Teigu [Pumpkin Fort]."

This is not just talking casually. I am really interested in the pumpkin cannon in Ma Yin's hand, not only because the big gun is a man's romance, but also because of the hidden characteristics of [Pumpkin Cannon]. When in danger, the power of the turret will be doubled.

So can you use Sharingan to hypnotize yourself and mistakenly think that you are in danger to increase the power of the fort?
After hearing Uchiha Lihuo's words, Ma Yin was taken aback for a moment, and quickly took a step back. She is now in the imperial capital, and unless she has to, she cannot reveal her identity as a Tegu envoy.

Tatsumi didn't know what to do. On the one hand, he had just joined the night attack, and on the other hand, Li Huo, who was kind to him.

But soon Tatsumi adjusted his attitude and stood on Main's side, staring at Uchiha Lihuo.

For a while, there was a sense of tension.

"Don't worry." Uchiha Lihuo stepped forward and patted Tatsumi on the shoulder, then looked at the soldiers patrolling the city, and said, "I'm not someone who takes advantage of others' danger, so I won't act now."

Like Tazmi, Main saw the patrolling soldiers. In any case, they must not reveal the identity of the night raid members in front of the soldiers, otherwise it would cause a large-scale siege.

The patrolling soldiers gradually walked towards the end of the street, and posted a new list of rewards on the nearby bulletin board, which attracted many people from the imperial capital to watch.

After realizing that Uchiha Lihuo had no intention of going to war, Tatsumi and Main went to the bulletin board, put on their hats, and lowered the brim of their hats, wanting to see whose name was on the new round of reward list.

Lubbock, Chitong, Hill, Najta, Brand...

Familiar names and avatars were lying on the bulletin board. Those were members of the night raid whose identities had been exposed. However, in the most prominent position of the bulletin board, there was a strange avatar, and the bounty was extremely frightening.

Sex: Male
Age: unknown

Appearance: unknown

Bounty: xxxxx
Crime committed: Attempted assassination of the Imperial Minister
Obviously, the empire was surprisingly efficient in issuing rewards. Uchiha Lihuo only went to the palace in the morning, and in the afternoon there were rewards for assassins all over the city.

Looking at the assassination of the minister on the reward list, even Ma Yin and Tazmi were shocked. Their task today was to assassinate the relatives of the minister with all kinds of bad deeds.

But just this morning, someone directly assassinated the minister in public in the palace. The Teigu envoy.

For some reason, when he saw the hazy face on the bounty list, Tatsumi couldn't help thinking of Uchiha Lihuo's appearance. When he wanted to look back for Uchiha Lihuo, the other party disappeared in the crowd.

Tatsumi had no choice but to hide his doubts in his heart, but because of the assassination turmoil in the royal city, their assassination targets should also be vigilant. It seems that the mission plan they made needs to be adjusted by contacting the boss Najieta.
