Chapter 373 Monster
"What happened? Why is the person missing?!"
"Yeah, it disappeared in the blink of an eye."
"Has he already run away?"
"..."
The soldiers were a little confused for a moment. After all, they were all standing there, watching such a big living person suddenly disappear, and they were still a little scared in their hearts.
"Monster, it's really a monster!" the emperor roared loudly.
"Everyone knows that witch, go and search! We must find her and never let her go!" The emperor was so angry that his face was shaking with flesh and he was gasping for breath through his huge nostrils.
"Yes!" The soldiers retreated in all directions and began to search everywhere.
Having said that, the Jinwu Guards agreed in a resounding voice.
But in fact, no one had much hope, and many people were looking at the sky from time to time.
It is said that when a monster suddenly runs away after becoming a spirit, it usually turns into smoke and flies into the sky. But the emperor asked everyone to search for it one by one. Isn't that right?
That monster can cast spells and disappear in a gust of wind. How can mortals like them catch it?
Therefore, everyone felt that today's events were bizarre, and they hoped that they would not offend the monster and suffer any disaster because of hunting it.
So the search is superficial and a bit confusing.
On the Jinmo Tower not far away, the tall tower hid Jiang Yuanfeng's figure.
A cool breeze blew in from outside the building, making the hem of his official robe rustle. He looked at the situation here, then slowly turned around and went downstairs.
Due to the increasingly urgent situation, he took great pains to heal his injuries quickly.
Make a deal with heaven, exchanging your lifespan for current good health.
So even though he couldn't see Lu Xuan who was using the invisibility talisman, he knew that this person couldn't escape!
With the Soul-Chasing Box out and the immobilization talisman he had cast on the sect leader, Lu Xuan had only one way out.
Just die obediently!
He looked at the empty space behind the emperor in the distance and walked over slowly.
……
Outside Prince Jin's mansion, three fast horses galloped towards the palace.
An incense stick of time ago, Jiang Xing, Fei Xing and Jiang Xing received the news that the secret guards were looking for them. They finally got rid of the tail following them and returned to the palace.
Who would have thought that when he returned home, he would see the usually calm Sang Luo suddenly burst into tears.
Jiang Xing snatched the letter she had hurriedly taken out, and his heart sank, filled with a sense of foreboding.
Sang Luo said with tears in her eyes, "The princess thought you were captured and in danger in the palace, and she would not release you until she went there, so she has already entered the palace alone!"
Holding the letter, Jiang Xing took Feixing and Xuan Ge, each riding a fast horse, and immediately rushed towards the palace.
This fool, it is obvious that the emperor imitated the prince's notes and deliberately wanted to lure them there!
But Axuan was fooled.
But he also blamed himself. If he had not followed all the way to find out where Jiang Yuanfeng came from to enter the palace today, he would naturally not have violated the previous agreement with A Xuan and went to the Duke's Mansion early to keep the appointment.
With Ah Xuan's intelligence, she would definitely not be deceived by such a clumsy trick and would enter the palace alone.
But at this critical moment, he failed to come back, which gave the other party an opportunity to take advantage of him.
Jiang Xing swung the whip hard on the horse's back, turned himself into an arrow, and quickly flashed out of Nanxunfang.
He hated this, too.
He hadn't found any suspicious places along Jiang Yuanfeng's way to the palace, and he had been planning to leave. But who would have thought that Fei Xing would discover the people following Jiang Yuanfeng, and even recognized them as the two highly skilled guards who had fought him in the Ji Mansion?!
He knew that his trip had been discovered, so he sped up and tried to get rid of the two men. However, the two men stuck to him like plaster, forcing him to arrange Feixing and Xuan Ge to fight them.
Searching for Jiang Yuanfeng's entrance to the palace had already taken up too much time, and the confrontation was even more tedious. By the time they finally defeated the two guards, the palace's missing person signal had already sounded.
Later, several people retreated urgently, but were harassed by the two men and it took some effort to get rid of them.
Jiang Yuanfeng, what a fucking old fox!
When he arrived at the palace gate, Jiang Xing's heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of his throat. He threw away the reins and strode in.
To his surprise, the Jinwu Guards did not stop him except for bowing.
If he stopped them, he would know that A Xuan had been captured by them and something bad might happen to her.
What does it mean that you don’t even try to stop me now?
Did no one come in, or did they already...
His eyes were red, his throat seemed to be filled with sand, and his heart was tightening and aching more and more.
Jiang Xing's eyes were filled with increasingly intense hatred, like the Tai Sui of Hell who came to seek bloody revenge.
"Your Highness, something is strange today. There isn't a single Jinwu Guard along the way." Feixing looked around vigilantly.
Xuan Ge also asked, "Could it be that the direction is not the road to the East Palace?"
Jiang Xing gritted his teeth, his eyes like two cold blades, sweeping over the two of them, then staring straight ahead, his voice colder than a deep winter snowstorm: "There is only one way. She must go to the East Palace when she enters the palace! Those who are afraid, go back first!"
Seeing Jiang Xing's persistence, the murderous coldness on his body seemed to want to devour them, and the two of them fell silent in an instant.
They were not afraid at all, but worried that the prince had taken the wrong path or that something else had happened!
Jiang Xing's expression at this moment was as if he was on a pilgrimage. Any sound that interfered with his efforts to save people was a desecration of the precious holiness in his heart.
He was filled with murderous aura, as if any spark would inadvertently ignite the fuse of the powder keg.
Several people arrived outside Wenyuan Pavilion at a very fast speed. Jiang Xing looked at the square in front of him, where the densely packed Jinwu Guards and Imperial Guards seemed to be searching for something, as well as the torn testimony that was trampled and scattered in the crowd. Suddenly, a bad premonition flashed through his mind.
He could hear the low whispers of the Jinwu Guards and the Imperial Guards who were investigating something around him. Words like "monster" and "spirit" kept coming to his ears. Jiang Xing paused and stopped under a big tree, nodding his chin in the direction of the soldiers.
Feixing understood and immediately dodged and quickly pulled someone to his side.
The person Feixing pulled over was a Jinwu Guard. When he saw Jiang Xing, his eyes widened immediately, "Your Majesty..."
His voice trembled and there seemed to be an abnormal fear in his eyes.
Jiang Xing's eyes were half-closed, his voice was sharp, and he was shrouded in a dangerous aura. "What are you looking for? Have you seen the princess?"
Upon hearing Jiang Xing ask about Lu Xuan, the Jinwu Guard was so frightened that his face turned green. "Your Majesty, I have a word of advice for you. We all saw Princess Jin. She was a monster. She disappeared suddenly. The Emperor ordered us to look for her. Once we find her, we'll take her to the Ministry of Justice..."
With his eyebrows raised and a chilling look in his eyes, Jiang Xing said, "Take her to the Ministry of Justice? What has the princess done wrong? Why is the emperor doing this?"
Seeing that he was unmoved, and being looked at like that, the man panicked. He just wanted to confess everything and pretend to find someone: "The princess harmed the Crown Prince and the Prince of Anchang. The Emperor pointed out that she was a witch and wanted her to be punished. But she not only tore up the testimony given by the Emperor, but also spoke rudely to him. The Emperor asked us to arrest her, but..."
Jiang Xing clearly said nothing, but he just leaned over and stared. The oppressive and suffocating feeling was like a mountain pressing down on the head, making it difficult for the Jinwu Guard to breathe.
"Suddenly, she disappeared without a trace..."
The Jinwu Guard was so frightened that he was shaking all over, thinking that the prince was going to stab him to death with a sword in the next moment.
But before he could finish speaking, the man in front of him suddenly relaxed his brows.
Ah Xuan used the invisibility charm, so it's fine as long as she's invisible, as long as she's not caught...
But in a blink of an eye, he realized something was wrong.
"You said the Emperor is here to arrest her, then why are you still looking for her when the Emperor isn't here?"
She allowed him to enter the palace so leniently and allowed him to search for the whereabouts of the princess so generously.
This is not the style of his good brother.
