Chapter 104 The Royal City with Undercurrents(1/2)
Neither of them had a better way to solve the border problem.
You can only let it go for the time being.
Yu Yi's shadow looked out the window and said: "The various reforms in Youshui Territory and Sunset Territory are basically on the right track.
The secret conquest of other territories is also proceeding steadily and only requires a little guidance.
You have accumulated enough reputation, and Adam will not touch you easily until the agreed date arrives.
It is meaningless for us to continue to stay in Youshui Territory and Sunset Territory.
We will set off tomorrow and return to the royal city."
"Brother Yi, how many people should we bring?"
"Obviously, we only brought Jiang Zhengyang's team and a thousand-man escort team. The remaining masters secretly sneaked into the royal city in batches.
The armies in each territory are in a state of preparation for war, waiting to be called at any time."
"Yes, I'll take care of it right away."
The next day.
Yu Yi and Luo Ya led a thousand-man guard team and Jiang Zhengyang's expert guard team to the royal capital, Taluo City, without any intention of covering up their traces.
Wangcheng also received the news but did not make any response.
A troop of a thousand soldiers protected Her Royal Highness the Princess. It was a completely normal operation and no one raised any questions.
After Luo Ya entered the royal city, she was arranged to live in a manor belonging to the royal family in the city.
Adem definitely cannot let her return to the palace now. If she is allowed to take control of the palace, the previous layout will be completely destroyed.
The entire manor was inspected several times by the guards, some of the hidden formations were dismantled, and the recording stones that recorded the images were dug out.
Rearrange the formation to isolate the outside world from perception.
In the manor, Yu Yi was leisurely basking in the sun and performing photosynthesis in the yard.
Luo Ya was sitting nearby, staring at the map on the stone table in a daze.
"Xiaoya, just staring at the map is useless. If you want to make breakthroughs, you have to go to the palace.
Only by taking control of the palace can you have the opportunity to consult the classics and find the entrance to the forbidden area and the traces of your parents.
When you escaped from the palace, didn't you take the king's seal with you? It can be put to use now."
"Brother Yi, I was afraid of being caught and losing hope of a comeback, so I didn't take the seal away. Instead, I hid it somewhere in the palace, waiting to sneak in again."
Luo Ya's pretty face was slightly red, and her eyes were a little wandering.
"..."
Yu Yi slapped his forehead and said for a long time that the seal was not on Luo Ya. What a joke.
"Alas... now we have another task, sneaking into the palace to find the seal."
"Yes...I'm sorry...Brother Yi." Luo Ya's face turned red and she bowed to apologize.
Yu Yi waved his hands feebly, "It's okay, the task is already difficult anyway, and I don't care if it's a little more difficult.
You should have cronies lurking in the palace, right? What is their status?"
"The only ones loyal to Xiaoya are the Princess Guards and a few personal maids.
They all died in battle or were captured while helping me escape from the palace.
Especially the commander of the guards, Wei Feng, is still locked up in the sky prison.
Even if there are loyal guards in the palace, they would not dare to be exposed easily.
There are also many ministers who are loyal to the kingdom and opposed to Adem in the sky prison.
They were imprisoned by Adam under various names."
"Well, the task of rescuing Wei Feng will be left to Han Yu's team. Anyway, they are hiding in the dark and it is easy to rob the prison.
Wei Feng has followed you for many years, and there must be many loyal subordinates in the palace.
Wait until he is rescued, then contact these subordinates to cover us entering the palace."
"Okay, Brother Yi."
Luo Ya hurriedly got up and left to contact the Han Yu team.
Neither Yu Yi nor Luo Ya participated in the prison robbery that night, mainly to avoid suspicion and to paralyze the spies near the manor.
With the five seventh-level experts in Hanyu's team, and the cooperation of Anzi who had sneaked into the royal city in batches recently, the prison robbery went smoothly.
The rescued people were temporarily placed in Luo Ya's original secret base.
Adam was so angry that he sent experts to chase him, but he was killed.
Both parties know who planned this operation.
The prime minister suffered from the lack of evidence and could not accuse the princess, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it.
"Thank you, Princess, for saving your life." Wei Feng knelt down on one knee and saluted respectfully.
His body was covered with scars and his prison uniform was stained with blood.
In prison, he was frequently tortured.
"Uncle Wei, there is no need to be polite. In the final analysis, it is me who has caused you trouble, and that is why you are in jail." Luo Ya hurriedly helped Wei Feng up.
Several ministers and their family members also came forward to kowtow in thanks.
Yu Yi glanced at it with his soul eyes and quietly exited the basement.
"Xiaoya, come to me later to get a master-servant contract."
When Luo Ya heard the voice in her head, her expression was startled, and she quickly covered it up.
"Brother Yi, do you want to conquer all the people rescued from the prison? They are loyal to the kingdom, so there is no need to do anything extra, right? Making a contract hastily will make the other party feel resentful."
"Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. I just observed that some people have been tortured into submission. You should understand how much harm can happen when betrayers hide around you."
"Brother Yi, Xiaoya understands."
Luo Ya took a contract and asked the rescued ministers and guards to sign it.
Many people were unhappy and even accused Luo Ya of being distrustful.
Opponents were suppressed one by one.
After the contract was signed, everyone understood the reason.
Some of the people who oppose the most fiercely do have ulterior motives, and they have already been subdued by Adam.
The traitor will naturally be looked down upon by everyone present.
Erwuzi are not welcome anywhere.
The others were ashamed and admired the princess's safety measures.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
Inside the manor.
Yu Yi looked at the sky and said: "Luo Ya, before we sneak into the palace, there is one very important thing to do."
"Brother Yi, what's going on?" Luo Ya asked hurriedly.
"Spreading rumors in the capital."
"What rumor and what is its purpose?"
"Our actions will definitely be closely monitored by Adam. Only by keeping him busy can we have a chance to make plans."
"understood."
In the royal capital, a breaking news is circulating.
The king and queen, as well as Prime Minister Adem, have all been controlled by the Shura tribe.
It is precisely because of the secret instigation of the Shura clan that the high-level officials behaved so strangely.
As soon as the news spread, it caused a strong earthquake in the royal capital.
In the royal capital, both the princes and nobles, as well as ordinary traders and servants, were all shocked by the breaking news.
"Hiss...Have you heard the rumors about the king and queen, and the prime minister?"
"How could I not hear it? Now the streets and alleys are talking about this news. It's so exciting that I can't even imagine it."
"I think it's quite reasonable. Think about it. The former prime minister was approachable and gentle and polite to others.
On the street, even if he meets civilians who say hello to him, he will respond with a smile and nod.
Now he has become cruel and cruel, as if he is a completely different person.
If it were not controlled by the Shura clan, how could there be such a big difference?"
"Indeed, the situation of the king and queen is similar. They used to be generous and loving to the people, but now they have become cold and ruthless.
To be continued...
