American Comics: BOSS Invasion

“Does Prince Xin have something on his mind?”

A voice suddenly startled Prince Xin from his thoughts. He abruptly raised his head, only to find a strange figure suddenly appearing before him.

Prince Xin was somewhat alarmed. He subconsciously took two steps back, drew his sword from a nearby rack, pointed the tip at the person, and sternly shouted, "Who are you? How did you get in here?"

"Don't rush, don't panic. Only when a person is calm can they see things more clearly. Think carefully, you know who I am!"

Qi Shan's tone was calm, without the slightest hint of teasing. He simply walked out of the shadows steadily.

As the light spread upwards from his feet, past the official belt at his waist, and gradually found his shadow and face, a trace of astonishment appeared in Prince Xin's pupils.

"It's actually you?"

Qi Shan smiled and said, "See? I told you Prince Xin would recognize this humble officer!"

After recognizing Qi Shan, Prince Xin not only didn't relax but became even more nervous. His brow furrowed, and his whole body seemed to tremble slightly.

"How exactly did you get in here? No, that's not right! How dare you break into the Prince's residence? I am the dignified Prince Xin, the current Emperor's own brother! How dare you be disrespectful to me?"

By the end, Prince Xin's voice was sharp and stern, his tone raised to its highest pitch.

Qi Shan waved his hand, "Your Highness, if I were you, I would save some energy. Since you already know who I am, you should know that with the abilities of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, dealing with some petty guards who can't be brought to the table shouldn't be a problem at all.

You wouldn't really think that every guard in your residence is trustworthy, would you?"

Prince Xin raised an eyebrow, his voice trembling, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything to Your Highness. I just want to invite you to watch a good show. Of course, you have no right to refuse!"

Qi Shan said meaningfully, "Your Highness, don't harbor any wishful thinking. You should know what these words represent!"

Prince Xin's body shuddered, his lips twitching unnaturally, his eyes shooting out an expression of disbelief.

Qi Shan said casually. At this moment, a light knock came from outside the door, and a person clearly dressed as a Prince's residence guard walked in, bowing slightly to Qi Shan, "Envoy Zhenfu, the Prince Xin residence's midsummer has been taken care of!"

Qi Shan nodded, "Not bad, the speed isn't too slow!"

Under Prince Xin's astonished gaze, Qi Shan slightly raised his hand in a gesture of invitation, "The moon has already noticeably shifted to the west. At most, it will be dawn in another hour. Time is pressing, so let's not waste any time. Let's strive to invite all the adults who are qualified to watch the show before dawn! Prince Xin, please cooperate!"

Hearing the word 'cooperate,' Prince Xin trembled again. He said tremblingly, "Are you planning to do something treasonous?"

Qi Shan smiled, turned around, and left. Qi Shan didn't even bother to answer Prince Xin's presumptuous question.

Two Embroidered Uniform Guards silently appeared behind Prince Xin, and taking him by surprise, they snatched the sword. The two men reached out and lifted Prince Xin up, carrying him out of the residence with his feet off the ground.

After coming out, the scene before him made Prince Xin's hands and feet ice-cold.

The trustworthy guards and eunuchs in his eyes, who were supposed to be as impenetrable as an iron bucket, were not lying crookedly on the ground as he had imagined.

Instead, they were all still working as if nothing had happened. When they saw the Embroidered Uniform Guards escorting him out, there wasn't the slightest hint of surprise on their faces. Instead, after offering a perfunctory greeting, they went back to doing whatever they were doing.

It was as if they had never seen Prince Xin at all.

Prince Xin was completely stunned, his mind blank.

As dawn was about to break, a pile of disheveled court officials appeared in the courtyard of the Embroidered Uniform Guard's Southern Investigation Office.

Each of them had two Embroidered Uniform Guards watching over them. If these officials didn't cause trouble or shout loudly, the Embroidered Uniform Guards wouldn't do anything. But once they discovered someone trying to make a scene, they would ruthlessly beat them.

Regardless of your rank, they would beat you until blood spurted from your nostrils.

It was still that high platform, still that seat. Qi Shan hadn't even changed his sitting posture, still sitting there in a lazy posture, his elbow resting on the armrest, his fist propping up his cheek.

Prince Xin was, after all, a member of the imperial family, with a noble status. Even here at the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he was given a seat.

However, the seat was small and narrow, and it was right behind Qi Shan.

This was clearly an imperial decree, but at this moment, no one was paying attention to such minor issues.

Qi Shan slightly turned his head, seeing that Prince Xin had gradually calmed down, and was now coldly observing the scene and the disheveled ministers, a hint of shock hidden deep in his eyes.

"Prince Xin, don't panic. This humble officer has only invited you to watch a show. These ministers have only been called here to observe, they are not the main characters, so there is no need to pay attention!"

Prince Xin remained silent, coldly looking at Qi Shan.

Qi Shan didn't take it to heart.

"I believe Prince Xin also knows that just a few days ago, Heaven finally took pity on His Majesty's hard work, and at the point of death, he miraculously recovered.

In the end, His Majesty was determined to pass on the Southern Investigation Office, activating the contingency plan left behind by the late Emperor!

Only those who have been left behind may not know that the Southern Investigation Office's arrogance and the judicial punishments are metaphors.

The Southern Investigation Office does the most is to collect intelligence. If you want to collect intelligence, you must have undercover personnel. It is said that the Embroidered Uniform Guards are all over the world, and this is actually how they are all over the world.

The things that Prince Xin has done, thinking they were very secretive, were actually received by us two months ago, and were submitted to His Majesty in the form of a secret letter.

Perhaps the news was too shocking, too unbelievable, or perhaps His Majesty completely did not believe that his only beloved younger brother would have such thoughts.

He insisted on boarding that treasure ship, which is why there was a series of events afterwards."

Prince Xin was wooden, his eyes dull.

Qi Shan nodded, "It's no wonder Prince Xin can't accept it. In fact, not to mention you, the people of the entire world can't accept it, otherwise the civil official system would not collectively oppose the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Eastern Depot.

What they fear is this set of intelligence investigation. Prince Xin, you are still too young!

What do you think? Will you tell the story yourself, or should I help you tell it?"

The entire place was silent, the audience was silent. Although Qi Shan's voice was calm, it could be accurately transmitted into the ears of the many ministers below.

Some were incredulous, some showed regret, some had cold eyes, and various attitudes were different.

No one dared to speak!
