Early the next morning.
A group of people gathered outside Prince Xiaoming's residence.
These people were dressed strangely. Some were dressed in black robes, while others wore bamboo hats and white muslin.
There was also a cripple sitting in a wheelchair. These people each occupied a corner of the entrance of the palace and sized each other up.
If any Jianghu people passed by this place, they would definitely be shocked by the cultivation realms of these people.
He did not understand why there were so many martial arts experts gathered at the entrance of Prince Xiaoming's residence.
Four men in flying fish clothes with spring sabers embroidered on their waists clearly looked like they were together. The person in the lead carried a long wooden box on his back.
It looked like a mechanism box for weapons.
The four of them were like four pillars, their eyes half-closed like cold puppets.
However, the slightly moving index finger made people know that they were not as calm as they seemed.
One of them was dressed in brocade clothes and held a folding fan. She looked like a man, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she was disguised as a man.
She was Shangguan Hai Tang, the number one secret agent of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa. She was carefully observing the crowd.
The last one was the cripple sitting in the wooden wheelchair.
She was also wearing a bamboo hat. One look and one could tell that she was a girl.
And what made the four men nervous was this crippled woman.
Women were still not good at walking. The fact that they could appear at the entrance of the Prince's mansion already showed that there was a problem.
In addition to the cold aura that the other party had on him, just looking at the four men quietly made them feel as if they were being targeted by a poisonous snake.
"Azure Dragon, do you want to test it out?”
"You're going?"
"Let Fourth Brother go."
"I'm not going. Why don't you let Third Brother go?”
"I'm not going. Whoever wants to go can go."
The lips of the four burly men moved slightly. They were actually using secret sound transmission to evade each other.
They were the Four Guardians Enforcers of the Embroidered Uniform Guards that Zhu Houwei had found for him.
A guard who was prepared to travel the Jianghu with the emperor.
He did not expect the four men to be intimidated by a crippled woman to this extent.
Squeak--
The gates of the mansion slowly opened, and the atmosphere between them instantly disappeared.
A powerful aura that made them feel uneasy rushed towards them as the gates of the mansion opened.
"Hmm?"
Shangguan Haitang, who was secretly observing the crowd, immediately sensed something. An expert!
An expert who was far stronger than him!
How could there be such an existence in Prince Xiaoming's residence? Why didn't the intelligence report show it?
The four brawny men in embroidered clothes immediately cupped their fists and bowed their heads slightly, as if they were obeying orders.
Only the woman with a crippled leg was supporting herself with both hands on the wheelchair. Her fingers were clenched until they were pale, but she refused to take a step back.
"His Royal Highness has summoned you all for an audience. At the same time, he will introduce you all to each other.”
As the person who came out opened his mouth to speak, the aura that was so powerful that it could flatten people suddenly dissipated.
The person who came was Zhu Houwei's first-class maid, Jiang Yuyan.
"Yes, sir!"
The first to react was the Four Guardians Guardian. After all, he was an Embroidered Uniform Guard and had a certain military quality. He was naturally quick at answering orders.
The other two nodded slightly and followed Jiang Yuyan's footsteps slowly into the manor.
However, no one knew the shock in their hearts.
The existence in front of him, who seemed to be a servant of the Imperial Residence, actually had such a terrifying aura.
The aura just now had been unintentionally released, but it was already difficult for the group of people to resist.
If he fought with him, would he be beaten up?
Azure Dragon and the other three exchanged glances, and their attitudes became even more respectful. They made up their minds to perform well in front of the new commander, Prince Xiaoming.
The other two also became cautious, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.
Soon, everyone appeared in front of Zhu Houwei.
After paying their respects, Zhu Houwei briefly introduced everyone's identities, and everyone knew each other.
"Please bear with me when you leave the capital with me.”
"This King is not a strict person, but I don't want any accidents, so everyone must be serious.”
"Also, leaving the capital this time is this prince's private matter, so everything will be simple and low-key, so I'll bring the few of you along with my palace's maids and servants.”
"Alright, enough chit-chat. Get ready to leave.”
Zhu Houwei stood lazily in front of everyone. He was dressed like a rich young master, and he looked a little suave.
When the people present heard Zhu Houwei say that he was going on a low-key trip, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
It was good that they kept a low profile. If they kept a high profile, it would cause huge trouble for their escort.
However, when they saw Zhu Houwei's magnificent convoy, they were all stunned. This was called keeping a low profile?？？
But there was nothing he could do. After all, Zhu Houwei was a prince.
As a group of people surrounded Zhu Houwei's carriage, they left the Imperial Residence and walked out of the capital.
Shangguan Haitang looked at Ruthless from time to time.
The two of them were both sensitive and sensitive to qi movements.
Along the way, the two of them had already discovered that the eunuchs, maids, and servants in this group were all experts.
All of them, all of the people who came out of the Imperial Residence, were not ordinary people. Even the weakest one would be a first-class expert in the martial arts world.
Some of them even made the two of them feel like they were some kind of natural enemy.
Moreover, the two of them did not know if it was their own illusion.
He felt that the angry little handmaiden beside the king had a faint demonic aura.
That aura was well hidden by the other party, but the other party seemed to be angry, so it would unconsciously leak out a little.
It was this little bit of aura that allowed the two of them to recognize that it seemed to be the true qi of the demonic sect.
For a moment, the two of them had solemn expressions.
He was ruthless for Prince Xiaoming's safety. After all, his master had instructed him to protect Prince Xiaoming before he left.
Although it was impossible for anyone to lay a hand on Prince Xiaoming, everything had to be prepared.
Shangguan Hai Tang was shocked by the number of experts around Prince Xiaoming.
His Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa didn't receive any news.
Sensing the special aura of the cultivation technique, Shangguan Haitang made a bold guess.
With Prince Xiaoming's status, she could understand why he had experts protecting him.
After all, he was the emperor's younger brother. Although he was a little useless, it was said that the two brothers had a good relationship.
It was reasonable for His Majesty to assign expert guards to him.
However, there were actually people from the Demon Sect among them. This made her have some special thoughts.
"Could it be that Prince Xiaoming has been controlled by the Demon Sect?”
Shangguan Haitang's body trembled when she thought of this.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. After all, Prince Xiaoming was of great importance, and it was very likely that the fiend sects would make a move on her.
Moreover, Prince Xiaoming had a ridiculous reputation. With the Demon Sect's methods, it did not seem particularly difficult to control him.
Once Prince Xiaoming was controlled, the benefits of the Demon Sect in Great Ming were obvious.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was right. At this moment, Shangguan Haitang had a feeling of being scared out of her wits. She only felt that the eunuchs and maids in this convoy were not normal.
Those maids were also ridiculously beautiful. How could ordinary maids be of such high quality?
Perhaps these were the disciples that the Demon Sect had carefully nurtured.
After confirming her thoughts, Shangguan Haitang did not say anything. She decided to observe in secret. Once she confirmed her thoughts, things would be serious.
