318: C318 My Scalp Is Numb

C318 My Scalp Is Numb

The Third Prince is dead.

As one of the main characters in this competition for the throne, the battle naturally ended with his death.

After that, what the Imperial Court would face would be a large-scale showdown.

Although Prince Cheng De had made a promise that he wouldn't care about what the four surrendered Fate Wheel Stage experts had done, the followers of the Third Prince wouldn't have such good luck and treatment.

Among them, those who had exerted too much force during the past few days, especially those who had caused damage to the Crown Prince's party, were given special attention.

This was something that could be imagined. After all, the Crown Prince was not a tolerant person. On the contrary, he was a little calculative. Those who offended him usually did not have a good ending.

To be honest, Chu Yun and Prince Cheng De didn't care about these things.

After the Third Prince killed himself, Prince Cheng De left the Imperial Palace and handed the situation to the Crown Prince. Chu Yun didn't need to stay here. He just took a deep look at Zheng Tianyang's corpse, then left with Prince Cheng De.

"My condolences. "

On the way back, Chu Yun told Prince Cheng De.

"Hehe. . . "

Prince Cheng De smiled bitterly and said, "I just feel a little sorry for my brother. His body can't hold on any longer. I didn't expect that one of his sons would leave earlier than him. What a joke. "

Chu Yun didn't have anything to comment about this. The Third Prince had failed in the competition for the throne. Even if he didn't commit suicide, the Crown Prince wouldn't let him go. If Prince Cheng De wanted to protect the Third Prince, perhaps he would become enemies with the Crown Prince. No matter how one looked at it, this wasn't a good thing.

In fact, in the end, the enemies in the inner circle weren't important. No matter who became the Emperor, as long as the Celestial Secret Dynasty could be unified, it would be enough. The real enemies would always be the Royal Qin Clan outside.

"Fortunately, Prince Cheng De is very strong. He only killed three Fate Wheel Stage warriors and stabilized the internal situation. Currently, the strength of the Celestial Secret Dynasty hasn't been weakened by much. Otherwise, the Royal Qin Clan might have taken advantage of this opportunity to attack us. "

Chu Yun thought to himself.

After sending Prince Cheng De back to the Princess Qi Mansion, Chu Yun returned to the Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce.

To the Imperial Court, the battle for the throne was a huge change that had never happened before, but to the ordinary people in Jinxia City, it didn't have much of an impact.

The reason was that it happened too quickly.

It came too quickly and ended too quickly. It had only been a few hours, and it had not caused any damage to the outside world because of the war.

As a result, when Chu Yun returned to the Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce, the pedestrians on the street were like yesterday. Most of them didn't even know what had happened in the Imperial Palace.

When he returned to the Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce, the fatty quickly came forward and said, "Oh my lord! Where did you go? Just now, a lot of orders were sent over. What big move is the organization going to make? "

" When did this happen? "

Chu Yun asked.

"Just now. . . "

Fatty replied.

Chu Yun nodded his head when he heard this. He knew that this was the matter. In this competition for the throne, there must be a lot of people from the Third Prince's side who wanted to participate in it. But now, no matter what those people were planning, they were powerless to reverse the situation. The Crown Prince's victory was already a foregone conclusion.

Therefore, he passed all the orders as usual. When the news of the competition for the throne arrived, he was just as surprised as Fatty, as if he didn't know anything.

The next day, the Imperial Court wrote down what happened yesterday and made it public.

According to the notice, the Third Prince Zhao Jingshen planned to rebel yesterday and led his troops to surround the Imperial Palace, planning to kill his father and seize the throne. After the Crown Prince's valiant resistance, he was completely wiped out. His head was beheaded on the spot. All his followers also bowed their heads. Many of them who had committed heinous crimes would be beheaded at noon to announce to the public.

Among them, the person who ranked first on the list of those who were about to be beheaded was the chief official of Jinxia City's Unitive Controlling Mansion, Zheng Xiangdong. Behind him was a group of people who had caused harm to the Crown Prince's gang.

Furthermore, on this notice, there was a high praise for the contributions of these two people. One of them was naturally Prince Cheng De, whom the Crown Prince called the jade pillar of the country, the pillar that would topple the entire empire.

The other person was the Vice Lord of Buping House, Chu Yun.

Regarding the latter, the Crown Prince only found out about Chu Yun's identity after some inquiries and verification. In the notice, the Crown Prince praised Chu Yun's heroic action of killing Zheng Tianyang. He also announced to the world that Chu Yun was pardoned from the crime of killing the Region Lord Qin Wuji of Spiritual Sea, and turned the case upside down for Chu Yun.

The reason he used was because the Imperial Court had investigated and found out that the Region Lord, Qin Wuji, in the Spiritual Sea, had colluded with the demonic devils in the Evil Spirit Mountain Range. It was an extremely heinous crime. Chu Yun killing him was to get rid of the evil of the people, so he didn't pursue the matter any further.

It was obvious that after passing through the Imperial Palace, the Crown Prince was extremely eager to pull the number one war god of Celestial Secret Dynasty into his camp. Therefore, he tried his best to rope him in.

On the same day, at noon.

Chu Yun purposely went to the execution ground to take a look. He wanted to know if there were any spies of this organization among the people who were executed.

As a result, after arriving at the execution ground, Chu Yun saw an unexpected figure. It was Imperial Advisor of Celestial Secret Dynasty, Chen Dusheng.

This Great Imperial Advisor Chen had just returned from the capital. When he heard that the Third Prince had led his troops to force the Crown Prince to abdicate after he left, he was furious and ashamed. He couldn't get up from kneeling before the Crown Prince.

Although the Crown Prince complained about Chen Dusheng in his heart, Chen Dusheng was still his right-hand man in the Imperial Court. Fortunately, nothing had happened, so he could not blame Chen Dusheng.

When he saw that Chen Dusheng was angry at these rebels, he handed the responsibility of supervising them over to Chen Dusheng. And so, this scene occurred at this moment.

"You bunch of rebels! You took advantage of my absence to attack the palace and almost caused a huge disaster. Each and every one of you deserved to die!"

Chen Dusheng was a thin and scholarly middle-aged man. He had a handsome face, and his thin face was filled with the marks of time, which formed a unique charm. Judging from his facial features, if he was smiling, he would definitely look good, but at this moment, his face was covered with frost.

"The time has come. Slash!"

When the noon sun was at its hottest, Chen Dusheng sat on the execution platform and threw a token on the ground.

A series of saber flashes could be heard as human heads rolled on the ground and blood spurted out like fountains, causing the crowd to let out cries of surprise.

The crowd of people standing in front of Chu Yun covered their children's eyes with their hands, while they watched the bloody scene with fear and excitement.

"Not a single one. . . "

Chu Yun looked at the figures on the ground and slowly exhaled.

Among them, the people he knew, other than the chief of Unitive Controlling Mansion, Zheng Xiangdong, there were no spies from any organization.

Perhaps it was because the spies had used some kind of disguising technique to conceal their original appearance, or perhaps it was because the spies had never been caught.

At this moment, he stood in the crowd and looked at the dead people. He was unable to get an answer in his heart. Fortunately, as long as he returned to the Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce and listened to the information from the organization, he would be able to find out if there were any spies in the organization who were killed because of this incident.

Therefore, Chu Yun squeezed out of the crowd and returned to the Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce.

. . .

In the evening, Chu Yun sat in his study.

There was a series of footsteps outside the door, followed by the sound of Fatty knocking on the door.

"Boss, something big has happened!"

Fatty pushed open the door and walked in with an ugly expression on his face.

Chu Yun's heart skipped a beat. He immediately stood up and said, "What happened?"

"We don't know yet, but the organization has ordered all the people in Jinxia City to retreat to the manor outside the city and listen to the military advisor's orders. "

As Fatty spoke, he hurriedly said, "Boss, hurry up and pack up and get ready to leave. I will go and get that blockhead Qin Hai!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After he left, Chu Yun took a deep breath and a look of anticipation appeared in his eyes.

After waiting for so long, he finally had the chance to meet the mysterious advisor. Although he didn't know what exactly had happened, he was certain that the advisor must have suffered great losses in the competition for the throne because of the Third Prince's defeat. That was why he had made such an intense move.

On the other hand, as long as he met the advisor himself, he would be able to achieve all the goals of the mission, and it would be the time to finish him off in one fell swoop.

Subsequently, Fatty brought Qin Hai along and rushed over. Chu Yun nodded at them. After that, the three of them took advantage of the darkness and left the Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce. After leaving the city, they headed straight for the manor outside the city.

When they arrived at the manor for the second time, Chu Yun's mentality was even more expectant than the last time. When they arrived at the familiar square, more than a hundred people were gathered there. The orderly formation of the people caused Chu Yun to frown.

"They're here?"

The Great Empress looked at Chu Yun and said, "The military advisor is waiting for you inside. You must know the situation of the resources in Celestial Dao Chamber of Commerce. "

. . . "Understood. "

Chu Yun nodded and followed the empress's lead to the palace. Fatty and Qin Hai, on the other hand, were looking at him enviously from behind. They seemed to be very envious of Chu Yun for being able to get close to that mysterious Imperial Advisor.

This was because within the organization, the military advisor had always been extremely mysterious. There were even many veteran members of the organization that had never seen the appearance of the military advisor in their entire lives.

Occasionally, when the advisor showed up in the outside world, he would always wear a mask. Many people even speculated that. . . Was there really a advisor in the organization? Could it be that the advisor was actually just a codename that was impersonated by someone from the Royal Qin Clan?

But. . .

Regardless of whether the Military Advisor was really a person or not, there was one thing that was certain: the capability of the Military Advisor could not be faked. All the choices that he had made in the organization over the years. . . Not all right. However, from the perspective of later events, more than 90% of them were the most suitable choices.

After entering the palace, Chu Yun walked forward step by step, adjusting his condition to avoid any abnormal signs. He was discovered by the advisor.

After a few steps, Chu Yun saw a black-robed figure wearing a mask sitting quietly behind a large table in front of him.

"Greetings, Counselor. . . "

Chu Yun cupped his hands and bowed, showing the respect of an ordinary member to the advisor.

"Get up. No need for formalities. "

The military advisor smiled faintly.

He looked at Chu Yun with a pair of very charming eyes. Through the hole in the mask, he stared into Chu Yun's eyes. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "No need to be so reserved. Sit down. Let's have a good talk. "

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yun raised his eyebrows. He didn't know that this was the moment. Because in the organization, the position of the advisor was too high, and he was only a level one fighter. Although he defeated Soong Qingyun, who was a guest elder, he was still a fighter in essence.

Although there was a gap between him and an ordinary low-ranking hired thug, it was definitely not to the extent where the advisor would look at him in such a serious manner, right? He was clearly just a subordinate, yet he was able to sit down and talk in front of the Military Advisor?

Wasn't this thinking too highly of Chu Yun?

"Hehe. "

The military officer smiled faintly. Seeing that Chu Yun did not intend to take a seat, he did not mind. He only said slowly, "Do you know? We have actually met before. "

. . . "Ah?"

Chu Yun showed a surprised expression. It was not a complete lie. He was really a little surprised.

This was the first time Chu Yun hated Sun Hong's identity. He was a lecherous and flamboyant man. Not to mention, he had actually seen Imperial Advisor before?1

To be honest, Chu Yun was really a little restless at this moment because he had no memory of this matter at all. Once the military advisor realized later that he was different from the Sun Hong that the military advisor had met, he was afraid that he would be exposed.

"Have you forgotten?"

The advisor looked at him with interest and suddenly remembered something. He smiled and said, "Look at my memory. I forgot that I was wearing a mask. "

With that, the advisor slowly took off the mask, revealing a face that surprised Chu Yun.

Chen Dusheng!

Chu Yun's pupils instantly shrank, and his scalp went numb.
