C274 (1/2)

Within the Great Yan Dynasty, with the return of the emperor, the various matters were gradually cleared up. The palace was in chaos, and the situation of the dynasty's separation was also gradually collapsing.

It had to be said that the Emperor had operated the Great Yan Dynasty for so many years, but his prestige was still rather high. However, what was still strange was that the crown prince's previous actions had not caused the Emperor to be displeased. Qin Mai did not seem to have any reaction, but in this situation, it seemed as if something was about to happen. This was because some people with discerning eyes could sense that the military power held by the Emperor had already been retracted by the Emperor.

As for the loyal followers beside him, they were gradually being chased away for various reasons. At this moment, there was already no one around the crown prince who could use them.

The pitch-black night sky seemed to envelop the entire Great Yan Dynasty's Imperial Family like ink and for the entire month, the night in the imperial city was extremely quiet. Even the barking of the domestic dogs had stopped, making people feel that it was rather quiet.

However, the quieter it was, the brighter the lights in the crown prince's residence were.

No one knew why the crown prince had gotten into this habit during this period of time, but all the servants in the mansion knew that ever since the return of the emperor, the crown prince had become anxious. Not only did the arrogance and arrogance from before disappear, but he also became abnormally careful and cautious.

Even though the crown prince's mansion was brightly lit, they knew that the crown prince had to consume some sort of tranquil medicine in order to barely fall asleep. Even so, even the slightest sound would wake him up.

However, even if the quality of his sleep was rather poor, he still requested that the servants carefully enter his bed every two hours to inspect his condition.

To this, the servants in the crown prince's residence were also in extreme torment.

At this moment, he also sighed, the crown prince was no longer the crown prince from before, and the overbearing aura he exuded had already disappeared. Of course, the crown prince's mansion was no longer the crown prince's mansion, and although the emperor had not said anything, the people in the mansion all knew that the experts in there had been drawn away by the emperor for various reasons.

The ones that were left behind were merely the Genuine Force warriors. These warriors were just the ordinary guards of the palace, not to mention, they would not truly defend the crown prince's mansion with their lives.

It could be said that the weakest force in the entire palace was the Crown Prince's Palace.

Just as he was about to close the door, a gust of wind blew past, causing him to close his eyes slightly. Soon after, he felt as if something had passed by in front of his eyes. In this situation, the laments in his heart became even louder. It seemed that he had become like the crown prince and began to make guesses.

After that, the worry in his heart turned into helplessness on his face and he gently closed the door before leaving the place.

However, the old servant did not realize that after he left, the room where the crown prince laid on the ground began to emit some energy fluctuations. However, these energy fluctuations only flickered for an instant before disappearing.

Who are you?!

The sleeping Qin Zhu didn't know what sort of dream she had, but she was instantly jolted awake. The sweat dripping from her back and the haggard look on his face showed that the quality of her rest period was quite poor. Just when he knew that she was having a nightmare, bitterness filled his face. She had experienced too many nightmares. However, just as he was about to prepare herself for it, she discovered a figure sitting on a chair beside the bed.

The drowsiness that was about to return to sleep disappeared without a trace in that instant. Immediately, he leapt up and grabbed the bedside with his sword as he shouted at the figure.

Hurry, hurry! Protect, protect!

When the profound energy in his body continuously surged, he still did not dare take action against the figure. As he roared hoarsely, he did not stop begging for help, but no matter how he roared, the figure did not seem to be in a hurry, and his crown prince's mansion was also extremely quiet, so quiet that he could not hear the sounds of anyone around him.

This situation made his body feel a little weak. Was the thing he was most worried about finally appearing?

If you cooperate with me, you might end up slightly better off.

The voice spread out both of his arms, and also slowly stood up. It was just that when the familiar voice sounded, Qin Zhu's heart sank, he would naturally not forget this voice.

Qin Shaojie, you should know that this is the imperial palace. Once my guards arrive, and the strong warriors in the imperial palace arrive, even ten of you will not be able to kill me!

As he shouted hoarsely, Qin Zhu's pupils also emitted an extremely murderous intent. He really wanted to skin Qin Shaojie alive, break his bones, drink his blood, and eat his flesh! The reason why he had been reduced to this state was all because of Qin Shaojie.

So noisy! I'll say it again, cooperate well, otherwise, your life will die quite miserably even if you die.

Facing Qin Zhu's killing intent, Qin Shaojie frowned, and did not waste any time on words, the profound energy on his arm fluctuated, and with a flip of his palm, he gently waved at Qin Zhu's arm. With this swing, Qin Zhu's right arm, which was wielding the sword, was directly sliced apart.
