"I didn't assassinate Your Majesty. Someone put the crossbow in my hand beside Your Majesty's pillow. It has nothing to do with me!" Tang San tried his best to defend himself.
However, no one present seemed to believe his lies.
The old man in the royal family smiled instead of being angry, "Haha, what a joke! Your Majesty has been seriously ill for a long time, and we have to bathe and change your clothes for him. Do you want to say that someone deliberately placed the murder weapon on your majesty's bed and asked you to come?" Assassination! ”
"Your Majesty Dugu Mian, I implore you to catch the murderer. The Tiandou Empire will definitely treat you as an honored guest."
Tang Xiao instinctively chose to believe Tang San. As for the specific situation, there was no way to delve into it at the moment. He swung the Clear Sky Hammer and sneered: "Dugu Bo alone can't stop us."
The Haotian Hammer, which weighed ten thousand kilograms, hit the load-bearing pillar on the side, causing the entire palace to collapse.
Dugu Bo took action angrily, trying to stop Tang Xiao's behavior.
Tang Xiao ignored it and struck down with another hammer, knocking down the remaining load-bearing pillar.
The beams of the palace began to collapse, and tiles fell like rain.
For Dugu Bo, he naturally did not want to fight Tang Xiao head-on.
Seeing the palace collapse, he immediately activated his martial soul true form and turned to protect the royal family.
When Tang Xiao saw this, he didn't stop at all, took Tang San with him, and the two of them rushed out of the palace together.
Not long after, everyone in the royal family evacuated safely under the protection of Dugu Bo, and at the same time, Xue Ye's body was carried out.
Tang Xiao and Tang San had already fled far away, so it was obviously unrealistic for Dugu Bo to chase them.
Xue Qinghe solemnly said: "Thank you Dugu Mian for your righteous action. Your kindness will not be forgotten by the empire. When Ning Tianchen comes back, I will discuss the reward with him. Of course, if Dugu Mian is willing, I can also talk to Mian." Chat directly.”
Today, Dugu Bo finally saw Xue Qinghe's methods. He did not want to come into contact with such a person to avoid causing trouble to the sect.
"Let the little guy talk to you." With that said, Dugu Bo turned and walked towards the outside of the palace.
Almost at the same time, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, who noticed the fighting in the palace, rushed to the palace.
Looking at the ruins not far away, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but ask Xue Qinghe, "What happened? Who committed the murder here?"
As he spoke, Chen Xin reminded him that Xue Ye beside him had lost his vitality. Ning Fengzhi's brows relaxed slightly, revealing a faint look of joy.
Now that the snowy night is gone, Xue Qinghe can choose another day to ascend the throne.
In the future, Qibao Glazed Sect will receive greater convenience.
Xue Qinghe was not in a high mood and waved his hand and said: "Teacher, I want to send my father off for the last time. Can we talk about it later, okay?"
……
After escaping from the palace.
Tang Xiao immediately took Tang San outside the city. Looking back at the martial law-enforced Tiandou City, Tang Xiao said: "Xiao San, let's leave the city first. The Tiandou royal family will definitely issue a wanted notice for us, and we must leave Tiandou as soon as possible. Fight the Empire.”
Tang San refused without thinking: "No, we can't leave, the teacher and aunt are still in the city."
The most important thing is that the Force Clan is his base. If he escapes by himself, it will be equivalent to abandoning the Force Clan again.
Even if a Titan is the most loyal servant, he will not tolerate being abandoned twice.
Moreover, he is too close to the Force Clan. After the Tiandou Empire investigates, the Force Clan will definitely be liquidated. In the future, not only will he not be able to establish the Tang Sect, he will not even be able to organize allies to take revenge on Wuhun Palace.
After all, who would cooperate with a man who abandons his slaves!
Tang San must move all the members of the Li clan away before the Tiandou Empire reacts. Even at the risk of being caught, you must do this well.
Tang Xiao frowned.
Tang San's actions were too dangerous.
Behind Xue Qinghe was the support of Sword and Bone Douluo, and Poison Douluo who could support him at any time.
If it were placed before him, Tang Xiao would naturally not be afraid of the three titled Douluo.
But after the Haotian Sect was destroyed, he was the only titled Douluo they could mobilize.
Tang Xiao knew very well that if given the chance, Sword Dao Chen Xin would definitely attack him to regain the glory of the Seven Killing Sword.
Just now, the trouble they caused in the palace just gave Chen Xin this opportunity.
The top priority is to escape from the Tiandou Empire.
According to Sword Bone Douluo's strength, they would be able to find their hiding place within a few hours. By then, fights will inevitably occur.
Tang Xiao felt a little helpless. If Tang Hao had not cut off his hands and feet, with their pair of Haotian twins here, there would be no need to fear the encirclement and suppression of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Tiandou Empire.
"Uncle, please believe me. The Haotian Sect has abandoned the Force Clan once, and will never abandon it a second time. In the future, we will seek revenge from Wuhun Palace. The Force Clan is our foundation, so we cannot abandon it."
"Don't forget, there are three single-attribute families. This time, we risked being caught and moved the Force Clan away. Invisibly, we also left a positive impression in the minds of the other three major families. . It will be easy to recruit them in the future.”
Tang Xiao understands this truth.
It is the Haotian Sect that owes the four single-attribute families. If they abandon the Li clan and run away this time, the four single-attribute families will never have anything to do with them again.
With a sigh, he said: "Okay. But Xiaosan, we must move quickly. You and I are already wanted criminals in the Tiandou Empire. If we stay in the city for one second longer, we will be in more danger."
……
About half an hour later, Tang Xiao and Tang San successfully evaded the pursuit of the Tiandou Empire and met Yu Xiaogang and others in the wooden house.
Seeing the two of them coming back in embarrassment, Yu Xiaogang suddenly felt bad and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Sect Master Tang, Xiaosan, you guys?"
Before he could ask, Tang San sighed and called for everyone to come inside.
Tang Xiao was standing outside the house, observing whether any soldiers from the Tiandou Empire came to investigate.
In the room, Tang San briefly informed everyone of the situation.
On the way, Tang Xiao also asked him if he really assassinated Xue Ye.
Tang San's answer was negative.
He had no idea why the Zhuge Divine Crossbow appeared on Xue Ye's bed, let alone why it misfired.
After hearing his words, Yu Xiaogang and others suddenly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
Tang Yuehua said with a look of annoyance: "Damn it, I should have thought that Xue Qinghe would do whatever it takes to get the upper hand. We were tricked by Count Sotolo."
The Zhuge Divine Crossbow appeared in the palace, which was clearly a trap for Tang San.
This hidden weapon belongs to Tang San and cannot be investigated. The charge of regicide was finally confirmed.
Tang San looked stunned and asked: "Auntie, do you mean that this was Xue Qinghe's fault?"
"Xiaosan, you are now a fan of the authorities. It is normal that you cannot see this." The speaker was Yu Xiaogang, who analyzed: "Emperor Xueye has been seriously ill for a long time, and Prince Xue Qinghe has been supervising the country for a long time. It is difficult to guarantee that he will not Higher thoughts will arise.”
"Hey~ I should have thought that if Xue Qinghe wanted to rise to power, Xue Ye would have to die. If you enter the palace to treat Xue Ye now, you have fundamentally offended Xue Qinghe."
Tang San was puzzled: "But Xue Qinghe has never been in contact with me. Even if he wants to frame me, he can't get the Zhuge Divine Crossbow."
This is also the biggest doubt in his mind.
Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but ask: "Xiaosan, think about it carefully, have you given away the Zhuge Divine Crossbow before, or lost it?"
Tang San fell into thinking.
In these years, he has only given hidden weapons to the five Shrek monsters, namely Xiao Wu, Yu Tianxin, Yu Tianheng, Dai Mubai and Tai Long.
Yu Tianxin and Yu Tianheng respectively took out the Zhuge Divine Crossbow arrows from their soul guides. "Ours are all here. I saw the hidden weapon in Mubai's hand this morning, and he didn't lose it." The hidden weapon in Xiao Wu's hand, After the sacrifice, Tang San got her soul guide, and the hidden weapon was also recovered by him, making it impossible for it to escape.
As for Tai Lung
Tang San felt that it was unlikely that he had lost it.
Whether it is true or not can be verified later, there is no need to dwell on it.
Tang San suddenly frowned, "Teacher, do you still remember the time of the Soul Master Competition? I was attacked by Shi Nian, and the soul guide was tampered with at that time."
Yu Xiaogang was puzzled, "Xiao San, didn't you recycle everything? Is there a Zhuge Divine Crossbow missing?"
Tang San shook his head.
He did recover them, and not a single hidden weapon was missing, but among his soul tools were not only the hidden weapons, but also the most critical hidden weapon drawings.
He was not sure if anyone else had seen the hidden weapon blueprints when the Tiandou Empire soldiers rushed to the scene after being executed on the spot by Dugu Bo.
Similarly, he was not sure whether the Tiandou Empire sent someone to make rubbings of his hidden weapon drawings on the spot.
Yu Xiaogang touched his chin thoughtfully. After a moment, he asked: "Xiao San, have you recovered the hidden weapon that appeared in the palace? Since you are the owner, you should be able to tell whether the hidden weapon is yours." Made! ”
Tang San slapped his forehead, "Yes, how could I forget this?"
However, time is urgent now. He still has to contact the Force Clan and has no time to dismantle the hidden weapon.
"In this way, let Tianheng and Tianxin go to the Li clan to ask the head of the Taitan family, Xiaosan, and you can dismantle the hidden weapons with peace of mind." Yu Xiaogang arranged.
He has seen the power of these hidden weapons with his own eyes. If the hidden weapon technology is really lost, they must respond early.
Everyone immediately started to take action.
Tang Yuehua and Liu Erlong packed their luggage. Tang San went to see Dai Mubai first. After a brief negotiation, Dai Mubai was still willing to believe Tang San and agreed to go with them to the Star Luo Empire.
After doing all this, Tang San sat in front of his desk and completely disassembled the Zhuge Divine Crossbow.
This Zhuge Shen Crossbow doesn't look like much on the outside, and every part matches the drawing.
For a time, the investigation once again reached a deadlock.
"Xiao San, didn't you find anything?" Yu Xiaogang asked hurriedly.
Tang San shook his head, "Teacher, there is nothing wrong with the way this Zhuge Divine Crossbow is made. It looks like it was made by me."
Yu Xiaogang asked again: "Could it be that you remembered it wrong at first? In fact, you lost a Zhuge Divine Crossbow, but you just didn't remember it."
Tang San shook his head again.
He had a good memory and made sure he didn't lose any hidden weapons.
"Teacher, there is nothing I can do now except explore the forging process of hidden weapons."
However, the exploration of the forging process can only be done by senior blacksmiths, and clues can be discovered after detailed comparisons.
With Tang San's current abilities, it was far from possible.
At some point, Titan appeared behind them, "Old slave knows someone who may be able to help young master."
When the blue and electric twin stars found him, he knew something was wrong and rushed over with Tai Lung.
We can investigate the source of the hidden weapon now, but we can move on a little later. The most urgent task is to take away the Force Clan.
After some conversation, Tai Tan agreed to his request without any surprise.
Tai Tan's face was filled with emotion. This time, the Force Clan was not abandoned at last.
"The old slave will arrange for the tribe to evacuate now. Young Master, where should we gather?"
"Sunset Forest!" Yu Xiaogang took over the words, "The royal family will definitely search for traces of Mistress in the city. In a short time, it will not spread to nearby areas, let alone go to Sunset Forest."
Tai Tanzhen nodded, "Okay, I'll do it now."
"Wait a minute, Tailong, did you lose the hidden weapon in your hand?" Tang San asked.
How dare Tai Long take out the hidden weapon Tang San gave him from the soul guide.
“Nothing is missing!”
Tang San frowned.
In this way, it can be proved that someone may have stolen his technology and copied this Zhuge Divine Crossbow.
This time, he had no way to investigate.
……
Inside the palace.
The investigation on Tang San soon came to a conclusion.
A certain censor at the censor's desk bowed his body and said: "Your Highness, we have found out that Tang Yin and Tang Yin were introduced by Count Sotolo, and carried out the assassination on the pretext of entering the palace to diagnose His Majesty the Emperor Daxing. ”
Xue Qinghe said angrily: "Catch Count Sotolo!"
The censor continued: "Your Highness, Count Sotolo left the city last night, and the empire's cavalry has gone after him. However, we have lost track of him, and it is still unknown whether we can catch him."
"In addition, our Censor Office also found out that Count Sotolo had already joined the service of Prince Snow Star ten years ago. When Tang Yin entered the palace today, a maid saw that Tang Yin and he had had contact with Prince Snow Star. .”
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Countless ministers in the court said angrily: "Your Highness, Prince Snow Star has evil intentions. It is very likely that he has a grudge against your majesty's original punishment and assassinated your majesty with the help of Count Sotolo."
Listening to the words of the ministers, Xue Qinghe felt happy.
He had to admit that according to Ning Tianchen's method, this palace change was too easy to complete. It was even dozens of times easier than his previous plan.
As for Count Sotolo, he had already secretly surrendered to Wuhun Palace.
And under the arrangement of Wuhundian, he joined Prince Xuexing, which was regarded as a time bomb buried beside the latter.
This thunderstorm made Prince Snow Star unable to recover forever.
With the final obstacle cleared, Xue Qinghe understood that it was time to return to the Spirit Hall.
Thinking of this, he stood up, waved his sleeves, "Seize Prince Xuexing and Gu's younger brother, and kill them at noon tomorrow!"
Ning Fengzhi on the side took advantage of the situation and added: "A country cannot live without a king for a day. Ning hopes that His Highness the Crown Prince can carry the banner of the empire."
The officials in the court were Xue Qinghe's party members.
With Ning Fengzhi as the starting point, the others followed suit.
The supervisor of the Qintian Prison even directly gave him a good time and auspicious days.
On the other hand, no one mentioned Xue Ye's funeral at all.
……
On the same day, the Tiandou Empire issued a nationwide wanted order
Capture Tang Yin and the remaining forces of the Haotian Sect. (End of chapter)
