From eunuch to emperor

Jinling City, the Imperial Palace.

The cold wind of winter blows into the palace, and the corridors and courtyards are quiet, a scene of silence.

Although the management of the usual imperial palace is also very strict, everyone is not like this.

Since the arrival of the ghost fetus, the entire palace has been like a ghost town.

Everyone is doing things with their heads down, and no one speaks. It's not that they are not allowed to speak, but that no one wants to speak.

Everyone is worried that they may die at any time.

Yan Xi, the commander of the imperial army, hastily entered the palace, and walked quickly to the imperial garden, where the ghost was enjoying the snow.

A group of literati stood beside them, among them was Yu Shinan, a great literati from the Southern Liang Dynasty who once competed with Long Chen in poetry.

An eunuch held a piece of paper and carefully recited a poem.

After listening to it, the ghost slowly savored it, and the scribes who wrote the poem trembled.

There are a few human heads floating in the pond in the imperial garden. They are the scribes who just wrote poems. Their poems did not satisfy the ghosts, so they were chopped off and their heads were thrown into the pond.

Before the ghost tires were finished, Yan Xi rushed in hastily.

Today's inner court is different from the past.

In the past, the inner court was the emperor's harem, and only the emperor's man could enter, and no other men were allowed to enter.

It's different now, as long as the ghosts allow, anyone can come in.

"Holy Son, Long Xinggu found Long Chen!"

After hearing this, Guitai got up immediately, turned to look at Yan Xi, and asked in surprise: "It's true!"

Yan Xi bowed: "The smoke is rising!"

The ghost was overjoyed and said: "I knew this guy would go, it's really good!"

"Take the fine rider and set off immediately!"

Yan Xi originally thought that he was just being chased by the elite, but he didn't expect that the ghost would do it himself.

"The last will obey!"

Yan Xi made preparations immediately, and Guitai took Longye and five people out of the palace immediately.

Yu Shinan and the others saw the ghost and left, they were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground and wept.

"Nearly died here today."

"Brother Shiheng, I have pity on your decapitated body."

Yu Shinan immediately comforted: "Everyone, we are still under the dangerous wall, it's not the time to cry, let's go."

The scribes just got up and stumbled out to go home.

When Yu Shinan returned home, his wife Jia came out to welcome him and asked, "How about entering the palace today?"

Yu Shinan immediately said in a low voice: "Take only Xiruan and two maids, and leave immediately!"

Jia Shi asked puzzledly: "Master just got out of prison, why did you leave?"

After Yu Shinan came back from fighting poetry in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, after much deliberation, he felt that Long Chen's literary talent was indeed superior to his own.

He wanted to go to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and worship Long Chen as his teacher.

Naturally, Li Chengdao would not allow it. The head of the dignified Liang scholars actually worshiped Long Chen as his teacher. What is Liang's face?

Therefore, Yu Shinan has been held under house arrest.

It wasn't until the past few days that the ghost suddenly wanted the scribes to recite poems, so he was released.

Yu Shinan said in a low voice: "If we don't leave here, we will be decapitated. Fifty-three scribes who have been reciting poems in the palace have died!"

Jia's face turned pale with fright, and exclaimed, "How could this be!"

Yu Shinan hissed: "Stop talking, clean up immediately!"

Soon, Jia Shi packed up his things, Yu Shinan prepared a carriage, took his two daughters with him, let a trusted servant drive the carriage, and immediately went out of the city across the river, heading for the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

The ghost came out of the palace, Yan Xi led the way ahead, and when it exited the south gate, the ghost suddenly said: "Go west, towards Linjiang City!"

Yan Xi didn't understand, and said, "Holy Son, Longxing Valley is to the south."

The ghost sneered and said: "This guy is causing trouble in Longxing Valley, when we rushed over, this guy had already run away."

"If you want to stop this guy, you have to go to Linjiang City and kill him."

It takes time from Jinling City to Longxing Valley. If you rush from Jinling City to Longxing Valley and then chase after him, you will be at least a day and a half late, and you will definitely not be able to catch up.

Therefore, the ghost fetus' strategy is to go directly from Jinling City to Linjiang City.

The distance from Jinling to Linjiang City is shorter, and they are all roads, so horse racing is faster.

Long Chen set off from Longxing Valley and walked on mountain roads. Even if he had the advantage of time, his speed was not as good as that of ghosts.

Therefore, the ghost fetus is estimated to be able to catch up.

Yan Xi suddenly said: "Holy Son Shengming!"

Guitai and Yan Xi immediately turned their heads to the west, and intercepted and killed them in the direction of Linjiang City.

...

Yu Fuguo brought Wang Liangyi and the others back to Longxing Valley. It was already night and the inside was in a mess.

After entering the meeting hall, Yu Fuguo sat down, and Wang Liang called Chen Lian over.

At the same time, ask your subordinates to count the casualties and available people in the valley.

Chen Lian was carried in with blood all over his body.

"Eunuch..."

Seeing Yu Fuguo, Chen Lian burst into tears.

Yu Fuguo asked: "What the hell is going on! Our family just left, why is it over!"

Long Xinggu is the painstaking effort of the ghost fetus, and it is also the training ground for Daliang's future generals.

It's all over now!

Chen Lian burst into tears and said: "It's all Long Chen, he sent people to sneak into the valley to assassinate, and countless people in the valley spontaneously combusted and disappeared..."

Yu Fuguo questioned, "Where are the people from Longchen?"

Chen Lian shook his head and said, "This fellow is cunning, and my subordinates failed to catch him."

Yu Fuguo was startled, and asked, "Did you see Long Chen?"

Chen Lian shook his head and said, "I didn't see it, but I found a few Eastern Zhou assassins."

Yu Fuguo asked, "What about people?"

Chen Lian cried: "Dead, they committed suicide in fear of crime, they all died of spontaneous combustion."

This...

Yu Fuguo was so angry that he cursed: "Trash!"

Chen Lian was upset at this moment, crying blindly.

He has been handling internal affairs in the Imperial City Division for a long time, and has never experienced such a tragic battle, and he is showing signs of mental breakdown.

"Where's Liu An?"

Yu Fuguo suddenly remembered Long Chen, and this time he came here to find Long Chen.

Chen Lian shook his head and said, "When the scuffle started, Liu An disappeared."

Yu Fuguo stood up and said angrily: "This fellow is indeed a spy! Find it for me! You want to see people when you live, and you want to see corpses when you die!"

The guards around did not move, Yu Fuguo felt that Long Chen should still be in the valley.

Wang Liang immediately asked people to search.

Yu Fuguo asked, "How is the situation in the valley?"

Wang Liang shook his head and said, "All those who participated in the training, from the imperial court and from the rivers and lakes, all died, and none of them survived."

"The strange thing is that more than half of the people died of spontaneous combustion, and the rest were either killed or poisoned to death."

Yu Fuguo asked in surprise: "Poisoned? What kind of poison?"

Wang Liang shook his head and said, "I don't know, those people's skin has red spots, as if they were burned."

Hearing the word burning, Yu Fuguo guessed something in his heart, it was probably the poison of the magic-suppressing stone.

He knew some from ghost fetuses, and some from rumors.

"Bring up the body."

Yu Fuguo ordered, Wang Liang immediately carried the body in and put it on the ground.

Yu Fuguo put on his gloves and carefully opened his clothes with a dagger, the flesh inside was covered with dark red spots.

Moreover, these spots have signs of peeling, much like being burned by fire.

The strange thing is that this kind of burning seems to be from the inside out.

Sure enough!

Yu Fuguo concluded that this was caused by the town magic stone.

"Where's Liu An!"

Yu Fuguo had a vaguely bad guess in his mind.

Liu An and Long Chen may be the same person!

If it's the same person...

Yu Fuguo shivered all over.

If Liu An... Long Chen is still in the valley... Yu Fuguo's hands start to tremble.

No, he must be gone, it is impossible to stay until now.

Yu Fuguo kept comforting himself, hoping that Long Chen had already left.

After a while, Wang Liang came in and reported: "Elder-in-law, Liu An has run away, and he also kidnapped two female slaves in the room."

Hearing that Long Chen was not in the valley and had already left, Yu Fuguo breathed a sigh of relief, the threat of death was eliminated.

However, he began to worry about another thing.

Long Xinggu's defenses were tight, and it was almost impossible for Long Chen to sneak in.

However, it was him who sent Long Chen into Longxing Valley by mistake, causing the current tragic situation.

How should the ghost tire explain?

Let the ghost know that it was him who recruited Long Chen to the Imperial City Division, and he sent Long Chen in with his own hands... he will die!

Yu Fuguo felt numb all over.

what to do?What should I do to survive?
