Chapter 383: A Piece of White Silk in the Capital
When the King of War died, the people mourned.
Xiao Lijing has been guarding the border for many years and has made countless contributions.
The emperor issued an imperial decree to hold a grand funeral for Xiao Lijing, and many people spontaneously hung white cloth in front of their doors.
For a time, the capital was drenched in mourning.
Royal study room.
Looking at the secret letter, the emperor was furious and threw the inkstone in his hand to the ground.
"How bold! They actually dare to hang a white cloth for the War King."
Hanging white cloth is only allowed when the current emperor passes away.
These people were incredibly bold. He clenched his fist and pounded it on the table. "Have you found the War King's body?"
The man in black crawled on the ground, "We haven't found it yet!"
"waste!"
Another teacup was thrown down.
The man in black had not yet recovered from his old wounds, and had incurred new ones. Fresh red blood was flowing, and his vision was blurred, but he dared not move at all.
"That's it!"
The emperor waved his hand, "If the body is not found, you will go down and accompany him!"
"Yes!"
He responded softly.
The man in black disappeared in the imperial study in a flash.
Fighting against the Prince's Mansion.
A heavy snowfall, everything is white.
Looking at the white cloth covering his belly, the old housekeeper burst into tears. "The prince will definitely come back. You guys..."
"Shut up!"
Chu Ruoran hurried over, got off the carriage, and looked at the old housekeeper with a sullen face. "His Majesty personally ordered the Prime Minister's Mansion to assist in handling the funeral. You dare to stop me..."
"I don't dare!"
The old butler knelt on the ground, his body trembling.
He was full of dissatisfaction, but he did not dare to cause trouble for his master.
"That's good! The old lady is old, from today on, I will be the one making the decisions here! Remember, this is His Majesty's order!"
Chu Ruoran raised her chin and walked into Prince Zhan's Mansion surrounded by the crowd.
She did not go to the front hall to make arrangements, but went directly to Chu Wanyu's yard and opened the warehouse.
The nanny in the yard wanted to speak up to stop her, but the old housekeeper pulled her arm and shook his head, "They are all external possessions. The master will not suffer any loss when he returns!"
Mammy thought for a moment and stood there with her head down.
The warehouse is open.
There are countless gold, silver, jewelry, silks and satins.
Looking at the boxes of gold bars, Chu Ruoran's eyes sparkled. "Princess Zhan came from the Prime Minister's Mansion. According to the law, her dowry should go back home! Someone, take out the home improvement list and start cleaning it out! After cleaning, choose a day to carry it back to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
"Yes!"
After looking at the dowry, Chu Ruoran returned to the front hall. "Your Highness has fought for the country for many years and must not be negligent. Doesn't everything require the best knowledge?..."
"Yes!"
The family members all knelt on the ground.
Within one afternoon, everyone knew that the situation in the capital had changed.
Prince Zhan’s palace is gone.
Black Armor Army...
……
Night falls.
Chu Wanyu nestled in Xiao Lijing's arms, drowsy.
"Life like this is so pleasant. It would be nice if it could last forever!"
"Don't you want to travel around the country?" Xiao Lijing ruffled her hair. "You changed your mind so quickly!"
"That's not it!"
Chu Wanyu rubbed her head against his chest, "Just enjoying it..."
Enjoy time together.
The thought flashed through her mind, and her face flushed. "Let's go out for a walk tomorrow. We've been hiding for a long time!"
"Okay, I'll take you hunting!"
"Okay!"
Laughter and joyful chatter could be heard from inside the cave.
Outside the cave, Jingzhe was alone, looking at the chicken roasting on the torch, and exclaimed, "Poor thing! I have to watch them show their affection every day!"
The chicken is roasted.
A strong fragrance filled the air.
He pulled off a chicken leg and took a big bite. "It would be even better if there was some good wine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud noise coming from inside.
Then, I saw a figure running past me quickly.
"Your Majesty!"
Hysterical shouts suddenly rang out.
Jingzhe was startled and the chicken leg fell to the ground, and then he saw Chu Wanyu running out with disheveled hair.
"Hurry, hurry, the prince is poisoned, bring him back immediately!"
Something happened suddenly.
Before Chu Wanyu could come to her senses, Xiao Lijing had already run away at a high speed.
He knew in his heart that Xiao Lijing was worried about hurting her.
but……
When she thought of the many assassins under the cliff, she became extremely anxious and worried, "Hurry up and send them a signal. We must find the prince as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
Jingzhe responded and ran out.
Chu Wanyu followed closely behind, searching for Xiao Lijing.
It was dark and pitch dark.
As soon as they walked out of the secret base, Chu Wanyu and others encountered several waves of assassinations.
Those assassins fought with a completely reckless attitude, and every move was deadly.
Chu Wanyu didn't hesitate and sent them to hell with a packet of poison.
Time passed bit by bit, and there was no trace of Xiao Lijing.
Chu Wanyu's heart sank to the bottom. Suddenly she remembered something and quickly ran back to the cave she had come from.
As I approached the cave entrance, I heard a beast-like roar coming from inside.
wrong!
She approached quickly and saw a figure huddled in the corner in the dim light.
"Don't come over here! Go away!"
