As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome.

Although it feels a bit strange to go from a bookstore owner to a bounty hunter.

But Lu Yan didn't care.

In his opinion, as long as he can find a way to sell out the books, that's all.

Unfortunately, the problem now is...

Du Yuanxian and Meibo both have no money!

After all, they had just escaped from prison, and the money they had brought with them had already been confiscated by the jailer.

You might be able to get the money back to your house, but unfortunately, there are a large number of soldiers gathered on the three floors outside the shop.

Not to mention the two civil servants, even the ordinary generals would not be able to break out under such heavy security.

Du Yuanxian groped around on his body for a long time, pondered for two seconds, and said: "Shopkeeper, you just said it was your duty to do it, right?"

Lu Yan obviously understood this.

He glanced at Du Yuanxian silently.

Then he lay back on the wicker chair and slowly closed his eyes.

Forget it, just mess it up...

The current situation is actually very embarrassing.

Lu Yan couldn't leave too far away.

The activity range of one thousand meters is neither too big nor too small.

At least within this range, Daji would definitely not be encountered.

Moreover, he had definitely offended Di Xin so much this time. There were a large number of soldiers guarding the shop at all times, and it would be impossible to wait for customers until he died.

Yun Zhongzi was captured again, and there were no fat sheep for him to pluck.

The business of selling books seems to be in trouble.

And Di Xin on the other side was equally dissatisfied with this.

As the current human emperor, it is simply unbearable that a madman can stay in his capital unharmed after committing such a thing as breaking out of prison.

Unfortunately, there is no way to break open the store door, so the situation is unsolvable.

Emperor Xin was already thinking about ordering people to invite people from the Taoist sect to solve this situation.

After all, it is impossible for Di Xin to let go of this matter unless Lu Yan's matter is resolved.

It is worth mentioning that he finally started to go to court again.

However, this is actually good news for the DPRK and Chinese civil and military officials.

Several weeks have passed since the prison robbery case.

No matter how great the anger is, it cannot be maintained forever.

As time went by, out of sight and out of mind, Emperor Xin had no choice but to acquiesce in Lu Yan's existence.

This night.

She seemed to feel that her progress in charming Di Xin had slowed down a bit recently. After dancing, Daji took the initiative to ask him to go to court tomorrow.

Di Xin was sitting on the imperial desk drinking a small drink. When he heard Daji's request, he praised it and agreed happily.

Of course, it was impossible for Daji to really want Di Xin to become a wise king, but it was a deliberate trap set by her and Fei Zhong.

Fei Zhong used money to bribe one of Empress Jiang's guards and asked the guard to pretend to assassinate Emperor Xin, so that he could blame Empress Jiang.

If Empress Jiang falls, Daji can easily ascend to the throne.

And the development of things was exactly as Daji had imagined.

The next day, Emperor Xin set up his court and returned to Shouxian Palace from Longde Hall. When passing by the branch palace building, the assassin who had been waiting for a long time came out with a long sword and shouted at the same time that he was ordered by his mistress.

How could such a crude assassination be successful? The escort officers on both sides took action simultaneously, and the assassin was captured on the spot before he even got close to Emperor Xin's Luan Yu.

Even though he was not injured at all, Di Xin was angry enough and ordered Fei Zhong and You Hun to investigate the matter thoroughly.

This was Fei Zhong's plan. Asking him to investigate was the same as calling a thief to catch a thief.

Fei Zhong went through the interrogation process and then came back to report to Emperor Xin that the assassin's name was Jiang Huan and that he was the bodyguard of Queen Jiang in the middle palace. The assassination was ordered by Queen Jiang.

However, Empress Jiang has always been chaste and virtuous, and she governs the country with laws. Moreover, after Empress Jiang learned about this incident, she knelt outside the West Palace and shouted that she was wronged.

Even if there were witnesses, Di Xin didn't quite believe it was true.

Just when Di Xin was hesitant to make a decision, Daji struck while the iron was hot and sent an assist, saying.

"Your Majesty, the matter of treason is so important. How can it be recognized without a heavier punishment? Your Majesty can pass the decree. If Queen Jiang refuses to recruit her, one of her eyes will be gouged out. The eye is the seedling of the heart. She is afraid of the pain of gouging out her eyes, so she will naturally confess.

"

Emperor Xin felt numb in his heart under Daji's comfort, and agreed to the matter without much thought.

In fact, there is no reason for the main palace to be harmed in the past. Moreover, Queen Jiang is the daughter of Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu. As a prince with millions of soldiers under his command, Jiang Huanchu will only be demoted at most even if Queen Jiang admits to the matter.

.

This was Daji's original purpose.

However, what people didn't expect was that Empress Jiang had a fierce temperament and would rather have her eye gouged out than take the blame.

When Emperor Xin saw Queen Jiang's eyes, he couldn't bear it.

After all, the two had been in love for many years, but they began to regret it and even began to blame Daji.

It's a pity that Emperor Xin, who insists on doing nothing without rest, rashly gouged out one of the eyes of the mother of the country, not to mention Jiang Huanchu, even the officials in the court would not give up.

Now it is difficult to get off the tiger, no matter what, Empress Jiang must admit this matter, so that Emperor Xin can have some room for change.

Otherwise, it would be okay if it offends the princes and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Therefore, Di Xin decided to listen to Daji and continue to use severe punishment.

He also used the cannon method to burn Queen Jiang's hands into ashes.

It can be said that Empress Jiang is a stubborn person. She refused to admit her life or death, and ended up being covered in dust and her clothes were stained with blood.

So many things happened in half a day, and even the courtiers had not dispersed, so naturally no one had time to stop it.

But this matter is far from over.

Empress Jiang has two sons, Prince Yin Jiao and Second Highness Yin Hong.

They were still playing chess in the East Palace. When they heard this, they could not sit still and ran to the West Palace to see Empress Jiang.

When the two sons saw their mother's miserable state, they were trembling with rage.

He immediately picked up his sword and ran to Shouxian Palace to kill Daji.

Emperor Xin was currently in the Shouxian Palace. When he heard the report from the guards, he was furious: "Two treacherous sons! Empress Jiang is plotting to assassinate her. This treacherous son also entered the palace with a sword to kill his father. He must not be allowed to stay!"

He directly gave the dragon and phoenix swords and asked generals Chao Tian and Chao Lei to take off the head of the traitor.

Fortunately, not everyone in the palace was trying to protect themselves. As soon as the news came out, Concubine Yang quickly called the two brothers of the Yin family and asked them to go to the Jiujian Palace.

Zi, Bigan, Huang Feihu and other ministers.

If there were ministers to protect them, Di Xin would not dare to force themselves.

The two highnesses kowtowed in thanks and hurriedly fled to the main hall.

Before the civil and military gathering had dispersed, the two royal highnesses told the ministers present the truth about the matter. All the ministers had tears in their faces and decided to ring bells and drums and let Emperor Xin go to the palace to explain.

Fang Bi and Fang Xiang directly shouted: "King Zhou is unethical, killing his sons and wives, destroying the ancestral temple and ruining the order. Today we will ensure that your two highnesses go to Donglu to borrow troops and build Tang!"
