Chapter 291 Walk to the End of the Road
Jun Wuhen looked at Jun Yeyan in the light of the fire. His eyes glimmered. Although it was a moment, he was still in a trance.
This man… Even though he tried to deny it, he had to admit that he was still a bit similar to Su’er.
He didn’t observe carefully but he still had stubborn and arrogant eyebrows.
“Oh. What if I don’t take it?” The sound of banter and sarcasm brought Jun Wuhen to his senses.
It aroused Jun Wuhen’s great anger.
Jun Wuhen looked at Jun Yeyan and said confidently and calmly, “I won’t talk nonsense to you today. Even if you don’t take it out, you must go to prison. If you don’t take out the clothes, you have destroyed the evidence. If you did not kill Prime Minister Bai, why are you afraid?”
As soon as Jun Yeyan heard what Jun Wuhen said, he was not angry but smiled and said, “In that case, I have nothing to say. Everything has been planned for a long time. I believe that the clothes have disappeared now. I have no proof. Since the Emperor has already assumed that I am a sinner, I can do nothing. I only hope that in the future you will not regret it.”
As soon as Jun Wuhen heard it, he smiled proudly and said, “Catch this man. Take him to prison. Wait for trial at a certain date.”
“Master!” Zhao roared gently beside Jun Yeyan and his machete was ready to shoot.
Jun Yeyan patted him on the shoulder and gently said, “Since someone likes to play tricks with me behind my back, I’ll play with him. I just hope that person will not lose too much in the future.”
As soon as Zhao heard what Jun Yeyan said, he paused but no longer planned to do it.
But when Jun Wuhen finished his words, no one dared to come forward to catch Jun Yeyan.
In the past, people would not be afraid to arrest Jun Yeyan. But since he came back from his trip to the Nanyue Dynasty, Jun Yeyan now was very different from what he used to be.
They didn’t know whether he was changed by this trip or whether he was like this a long time ago, but they all knew that Jun Yeyan was the person they couldn’t compete with at this moment.
Now Jun Yeyan was just standing there. He made them feel what a powerful momentum was. Today’s Emperor didn’t even have this feeling!
They were afraid from the bottom of their hearts and most of them dared not come forward rashly.
When Jun Wuhen saw this situation, he couldn’t help getting angry and shouted, “What are you doing? Why don’t you arrest him? He has murdered an important official of our country so he should go to prison and wait for trial.”
Jun Yeyan looked at the exasperated Jun Wuhen. He raised his lips and said, “You don’t have to. I can go by myself.”
When he was speaking, he gave Zhao a reassuring look. Then Jun Yeyan slightly lifted his sleeve and took a few steps forward.
When Jun Yeyan came forward, those officers and soldiers stepped back carefully. But they didn’t dare to do something.
Zhao clenched his fists tightly, but he tried not to do anything.
When Ten Dark Shadows and each subordinate and general who just came here and saw this, most of them came forward to block the way.
When Jun Yeyan saw this situation, he frowned slightly and said, “Get out of the way. I disdain to kill Bai Qiwei. If others don’t know, how can you not understand?”
“But! Prince!” Ying Yi looked at Jun Wuhen resentfully. He made no secret of the murderous intention in his eyes and roared loudly.
As soon as Jun Yeyan heard the words of Ying Yi, he just gave him a look. Ying Yi couldn’t help being stunned. Then he was silent.
Jun Yeyan looked at the crowd including Ying Yi and gently opened his thin lips and coldly said, “Today is the second day and there are still three days left. You know what to do.”
As soon as the crowd including Ying Yi heard what Jun Yeyan said, they took a few steps back in unison. They bent down and knelt on one knee. There was nothing in their eyes but Jun Yeyan.
“Prince. Don’t worry. We won’t let you down.”
The mighty and magnificent voices had a powerful momentum which made people feel unstoppable.
Even though the emperor of the Chengxi Dynasty was still in front of them at this moment, they didn’t look at him. They despised him.
Jun Yeyan saw the situation. He raised his eyebrows slightly. He swung his sleeves and was the first to stride away. His ink-black hair crossed the arc of the air in the cold wind.
Such a Jun Yeyan didn’t look like being arrested but more like an emperor who was going to travel incognito, with an incomparable arrogance. He was admired for his excellent demeanor.
On the other hand, Jun Wuhen who was the true emperor was so sad that it was very difficult for him to attract the attention of others.
Looking at Jun Yeyan’s subordinates who were so provocative, Jun Wuhen only felt that his face had been severely beaten. He never knew that there were such loyal men around Jun Yeyan.
What exactly were the people he sent to this palace used for? Why didn’t he know anything about the news?
Jun Wuhen clenched his fists tightly and strode away.
Although he did not understand the meaning of what Jun Yeyan said, he had begun to be a little vigilant.
No matter how Jun Yeyan planned, as long as Ye Zhaojue was still in his hands, he would have nothing to fear.
Ying Yi watched Jun Wuhen leave and looked at Zhao and asked, “Shall I inform the Princess of the news that the master has been taken away?”
As soon as Zhao heard the words of Ying Yi, he shook his head slightly and said, “No. I think it will spread in the palace soon and it will be difficult for the Princess not to know.”
Ying Yi nodded but he didn’t worry too much about Jun Yeyan. After all, there were their subordinates in the prison and Master could come out whenever he wanted.
Of course, they didn’t know the extent of the Master’s Kungfu today, let alone the little jailers.
Ying Er’s hands were folded around his chest and said, “I already have some news about the whereabouts of General Ye. As long as we continue to investigate, I believe we will have a result soon.”
Zhao nodded and said, “Keep tracking down. And keep a close eye on Jun Wuhen’s movement.”
As soon as Ying Yi thought of what the people in the Nalan House said, he looked at Zhao and slightly said, “By the way, someone from the Nalan House said that Nalan Youhong’s whereabouts are unknown now. Several of the Princess’s maidservants were with Nalan Youhong and now all of them are missing. There is something strange.”
As soon as Zhao heard the words of Ying Yi, his eyebrows jumped fiercely. He thought there must be something strange in it.
Zhao asked slightly, “Where did our inspectors miss their track?”
“Xiyuan.” The neat two words made Zhao’s brows fold gently.
Zhao gently said, “Xiyuan. They disappeared in the Nanyue Dynasty. It seems that Qi Liange must be involved in it. Send someone to search secretly in the Nanyue Dynasty. I’ll tell the Master later.”
Several people nodded and parted at the same time. Each of them carried out their own tasks.
On this side, following the footsteps of Zhaoye, Bai Aoxue who followed him all the way looked at the sky and stopped and said, “Go back to Luoyan’s palace. On the one hand, take care of Luoyan for me. On the other hand, if Jun Yeyan comes, let him go back first.”
The man who had followed Bai Aoxue in the dark appeared and said seriously, “The Master asked me to protect you.”
As soon as Bai Aoxue listened to the man’s words, she looked at Zhaoye who slowly went farther and farther away and said, “Now it is not the time to say this. This is an order. I believe Jun Yeyan has also said that if he is not here, what I say is an absolute order.”
As soon as the man in black listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, he was stunned and looked at the proud woman under the silver moon. He could not help nodding blankly.
He used to think that only the Master had this kind of momentum. It turned out that there was a person in the world who could compare with the Master.
The man slightly bent down to salute and looked at Bai Aoxue and said, “I will do as you please. Mistress, if you are in danger, open the bamboo. At that time the news will be released, and our people will come to rescue you.”
When he was speaking, he gave a long strip of bamboo to Bai Aoxue.
Bai Aoxue also did not refuse. She took the wooden strip and looked at the man and said, “Protect Luoyan for me.”
Then she hurriedly turned around and quickly went to where Zhaoye had left.
The man in black watched Bai Aoxue disappear and quickly turned back.
After following Zhaoye for a long time, Bai Aoxue did not think that there was such a place in the palace. Desolation was the only word that could describe this place.
The cold wind was bleak and immediately there was a bit of cold here which made people shudder.
She didn’t expect that there was a place like this in the magnificent palace outside. Bai Aoxue sighed slightly but her nerves did not relax.
Perhaps Zhaoye was very vigilant. He had to turn back every few steps he took. To avoid being noticed, Bai Aoxue could not help slowing down her pace and lagged behind a little.
The wreckage of big dilapidated houses was everywhere. Rotten wood had been crumbling after being corroded for a long time.
Everywhere showed signs of dilapidation and misery only after the fire burned.
It was probably a long fire over the years but there was still no grass here. Desolation and sadness were everywhere.
It was not until Zhaoye walked into the dilapidated house that Bai Aoxue drew back her thoughts and stepped into the house cautiously and carefully.
She also missed the old plaque that was blackened by the fire but not burned down.
Words on the plaque were— Suwan Palace.
If Bai Aoxue saw it, she would know that this was the palace of the former Concubine Su, the mother of Jun Yeyan.
It also overlapped with her memories. It was a place where she used to come.
But at this moment, Bai Aoxue had no time to observe these. She followed in the footsteps of Zhaoye and stepped into a dark and lightless place.
She had walked this road before as if there had been no light forever and she would have only walked to the end of the road. She was backlit and abandoned forever.
She did not find that Zhaoye in front of her lit up his cold eyes in the dark.
On the other hand, Jun Yeyan who came to the prison was not as anxious and worried as Jun Wuhen thought. None of these emotions appeared on the face of Jun Yeyan.
Instead, he leisurely looked around the prison and watched the prisoners’ behavior which made him sleepy.
Jun Wuhen looked at Jun Yeyan. He suppressed his anger and said coldly, “Jun Yeyan, since you came in by yourself, I tell you that you will never go out.”
As soon as Jun Yeyan heard Jun Wuhen’s words, he gently said, “You must have known that I was pretending, and I didn’t want to beat around the bush with you. I can get out of here whenever I want but I don’t want to leave now. If you still stand here, I’m afraid I can’t help but come out and wring your head.”
If you didn’t take a closer look at his slightly squinting phoenix eyes, you couldn’t see the coldness in his eyes. But Jun Wuhen saw it clearly. He was even more shocked in his heart that Jun Yeyan had this kind of momentum.
Jun Wuhen could not help stepping back. He pointed to Jun Yeyan and said, “You wait for three days. I don’t know what you are going to do but three days later you will die. Then you can’t do anything.”
He didn’t wait for Jun Yeyan to reply. Jun Wuhen shook his sleeves and left.
Jun Yeyan watched Jun Wuhen leaving angrily. There was a bad smile at the corners of his mouth.
