Chapter 193 Secret Room Arrangement
In the secret residence arranged by the prince, Chen Jue and Chen Jia temporarily escaped the danger of being hunted down. This is a quiet courtyard surrounded by high walls. There are several houses in the courtyard, which are decorated very simply. The secret room is located underground. It is a hidden and safe space. It has become their temporary safe haven and a base for planning the next move.
In the secret room, the candlelight flickered, illuminating the slightly tired but extremely determined faces of Chen Jue and Chen Jia. The table was filled with various materials and maps, which were the clues they had collected about King Zhao.
"Sister, we escaped death this time, we can't let King Zhao have another chance to counterattack. We must carefully design a plan to bring him down completely." Chen Jue looked at Chen Jia, the flame of revenge flashing in his eyes.
Chen Jia nodded slightly. She picked up a document and said, "Ajue, we escaped from that dark room and cave. There must be secrets that we haven't discovered. Since King Zhao used those places, there may be more evidence of his treason hidden in them. We can start from here."
Chen Jue pondered for a moment: "You are right, sister. We have to sneak in again, but this time we can't act blindly. We need to understand the environment and guard situation around the dark room in detail. I will send someone to investigate."
"Also, we have to consider the possible reaction of King Zhao. He must know that we have escaped and will definitely strengthen his defenses. Our plan must be able to avoid his eyes and ears." Chen Jia added.
In the following days, Chen Jue and Chen Jia waited for news from the spies while planning every step of the plan in detail in the secret room.
One day, the spy reported: "Sir, we found that the guards around the secret room have increased several times compared to before, and King Zhao seems to have set up some new traps and secret sentries nearby. However, we also found a relatively hidden sewer that leads to the vicinity of the secret room."
Chen Jue looked at the map and moved his finger along the route marked by the scout: "This sewer may be our breakthrough point. We can sneak in from here. But be careful, the sewer may also be dangerous, we need to be prepared in advance."
Chen Jia said: "We need to prepare some countermeasures and antidotes, just in case. Also, we can't have too many people involved in the operation, so as not to attract attention."
"Well, I will select a few of the best and most reliable people. This operation must succeed and not fail." Chen Jue said firmly.
As the plan gradually became more complete, Chen Jue and Chen Jia began to prepare the equipment needed for the operation. They were busy in the secret room, checking weapons, preparing medicines, and studying maps.
"Ajue, once we find more evidence, we can make King Zhao's crimes known to the world. This time we must make him receive the punishment he deserves." Chen Jia's eyes revealed anticipation and anger.
"Sister, I can't wait to see the day when King Zhao falls. He must pay for his sins with everything he has." Chen Jue clenched his fists.
On the night of the operation, the moonlight was dim and the sky was overcast. Chen Jue led a few trusted men and sneaked into the sewer with Chen Jia. The sewer was filled with a pungent smell, sewage was flowing, and the environment was terrible.
"Everyone be careful and watch your step." Chen Jue said in a low voice.
They moved forward carefully in the sewer, with rats running past them from time to time. After a difficult trek, they finally approached the entrance to the dark room.
"There is a trap here, everyone be careful." Chen Jue reminded everyone based on his memory from last time.
They successfully avoided the entrance trap and quietly entered the dark room. There was silence in the dark room except for the sound of their gentle breathing.
"Follow the plan and search for evidence separately." Chen Jue ordered softly.
The crowd divided into several groups and began to search in the dark room. Chen Jia and Chen Jue were in one group, and they came to the huge stone chamber they discovered last time.
"Ajue, look here. We left in a hurry last time and didn't check these bookshelves carefully." Chen Jia said, pointing at the bookshelf.
They carefully looked through the ancient books and documents on the bookshelf and found some secret letters between King Zhao and enemy countries, which involved military deployments and plans to assassinate court officials.
"These evidences are so important!" Chen Jue said excitedly.
Just then, they heard footsteps.
"Oh no, someone is coming!" Chen Jia exclaimed in a low voice.
They quickly hid behind the bookshelf, only to see a group of men in black walking in.
"Search carefully and don't miss any clues. We must find Chen Jue and Chen Jia and don't let them take away the evidence." A leader of the men in black gave the order.
Chen Jue and Chen Jia held their breath, knowing that if they were discovered, all their efforts would be wasted. During the tense confrontation, Chen Jue discovered a secret compartment behind the bookshelf that seemed to be able to accommodate them.
"Sister, this way!" Chen Jue pulled Chen Jia into the secret compartment. The space inside the secret compartment was small, and they pressed tightly together, and could clearly hear each other's heartbeats.
The man in black searched the stone chamber for a while, found nothing unusual, and left.
"That was a close call." Chen Jia breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's continue looking for evidence and then leave as soon as possible." Chen Jue said.
They also found some of the king's personal account books in the secret compartment, which recorded detailed accounts of his illegal money-making and bribery of officials. These evidences made the king's crimes more conclusive.
"Let's go!" After Chen Jue and Chen Jia met up with everyone else, they returned along the original route.
After returning to the secret room, Chen Jue and Chen Jia began to organize the evidence.
"With these evidences, King Zhao can no longer make excuses," said Chen Jia.
"But we can't present it directly to the emperor. We have to use these evidences to design a trap to lure Prince Zhao into his own trap." A cunning gleam appeared in Chen Jue's eyes.
They discussed the plan in a secret room.
"We can deliberately leak some information to make King Zhao think that the evidence we have is incomplete and lure him to snatch it. Then when he takes action, we can catch him on the spot." Chen Jue put forward his idea.
"This is a good idea, but the message must be released cleverly so that he can't see any flaws." Chen Jia agreed.
Therefore, Chen Jue arranged for some people to cleverly spread some vague information about the evidence in some underground information channels in the capital. At the same time, they set up many ambushes around the secret residence, waiting for King Zhao to take the bait.
A few days later, the spy reported: "Sir, the King of Zhao's men have begun to move, and they seem to be heading towards us."
"Prepare for battle!" Chen Jue ordered.
Around the secret residence, Chen Jue's men hid in every corner, ready to fight. As the King of Zhao's men gradually approached, they did not realize that danger was approaching.
When King Zhao's men entered the encirclement, Chen Jue gave an order: "Attack!"
Suddenly, shouts of killing rang out. Chen Jue led the crowd to engage in a fierce battle with the King of Zhao's men. Chen Jia also joined the battle with a weapon in hand.
"Do you think you can steal the evidence? Today is the day you die!" Chen Jue shouted.
Although the King of Zhao's men were well-trained, they gradually fell into trouble due to the careful preparation of Chen Jue and his men. However, just when the battle reached a critical moment, another group of men in black suddenly joined the battle, and the situation became complicated in an instant.
"Ajue, something is wrong!" Chen Jia shouted.
"Don't panic, sister. Let's keep fighting!" Chen Jue steadied his position and continued to fight the enemy.
This group of newly appeared men in black were extremely powerful. They broke through Chen Jue's defenses and rushed towards the room where the evidence was stored.
"Stop them!" Chen Jue was extremely anxious. He knew that once the evidence was taken away, all his efforts would be in vain.
When Chen Jia saw the enemy's target, she suddenly had an idea and ran in another direction, shouting, "I have the evidence!"
The men in black were fooled, and some of them chased after Chen Jia. Chen Jue took the opportunity to lead his men to counterattack and hold back the enemy's main force.
Chen Jia ran in the yard, using her familiar environment to fight the man in black. The man in black chased her closely but could not catch up with her.
"It's not easy to catch me!" Chen Jia shouted.
Just when the man in black was about to catch up with Chen Jia, the prince arrived with reinforcements.
"You traitors, stop being so arrogant!" the prince shouted and joined the battle.
The arrival of reinforcements instantly reversed the situation, and King Zhao's men were defeated. After Chen Jue and Chen Jia met up, they looked at the captured enemies and breathed a sigh of relief.
"This time, it's all thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for arriving on time." Chen Jue said gratefully.
"You have done a great job this time. The evidence is enough to convict King Zhao. We must present the evidence to our father as soon as possible." said the prince.
In the court, the emperor looked at the evidence presented by Chen Jue and the crown prince, and was furious: "How dare the King of Zhao be so rebellious! Pass on my order, arrest the King of Zhao immediately and investigate his accomplices thoroughly!"
With the arrest of King Zhao, his conspiracy was completely exposed. The court was in an uproar, and the people also applauded.
