C182

Former Crown Prince and Lady Shi ran away.

Relying on the abilities of those two people, it was impossible for them to run without being noticed. Needless to say, it was done by the Shi family and Lu Family.

His reaction was considered fast, knowing that he had to protect the two souls first. Otherwise, if one of His Majesty got angry and got hurt, no matter how capable they were, there would be no place for them.

But even if this was the case, even if Lu Family and the Shi Family were to be completely proven guilty, His Majesty had just gotten completely exhausted of the incident with King Qin, and then suddenly caused these two families to cause trouble, and was even a family that he trusted a lot in the past, so His Majesty started to suspect life, why didn't anyone work so hard for him?

Looking at the entire Imperial Court, there was only Elder Official Xie left, the Elder Official Xie had steadily become the head and support of the cabinet. Ever since the Former Crown Prince was crippled, Pavilion Elder Song was pushed aside step by step, and the cabinet was already the strongest in the country. Although it had the power to overthrow the entire country, there were not many people in the His Majesty that could rely on, so after thinking for a bit, the cabinet still summoned the Elder Official Xie into the palace.

His Majesty asked directly: "What do you think of the matter with the Lu Family and the Shi family?"

The origin of Xie Family and Lu Family was not shallow. Before this matter had happened, a person thought that Xie Family was wearing a pair of pants, therefore Xie Cen was extremely terrified in his heart, thinking that the His Majesty did not trust him.

"This official will definitely investigate the matter of Abandoned Crown Prince's conspiracy with all my power. Once it is confirmed, I will not hold back!"

His Majesty nodded his head, "Your family's young lady is even taking the Lu Family as her daughter-in-law, are you willing to part with her?"

Xie Cen suddenly raised his body, his hand that was lying on the ground was trembling, "This subject, this subject cannot bear it, but if I am truly involved, this subject will not show mercy."

What a ruthless Elder Official Xie, just as expected!

How could His Majesty have the heart to be pained for him? "This way, the case will be left to you to handle with full authority, as for the other two, you must get them back, if necessary, you can cut them off first and play it later."

His Majesty's attitude was extremely clear, that he had to find them, and it did not matter whether they came back horizontally or vertically, as long as he was alive and wanted to see people's corpses, he could not stand these unscrupulous things breathing in a place that he could not see.

If this matter was handed to the Elder Official Xie, then there was no way the Abandoned Crown Prince could be considered as alive. With the consoling pill of the His Majesty, there was nothing to worry about, after all, in this situation, even if he brought it back alive, he would still need to make a cut.

As a result, the Elder Official Xie ordered the entire city to search for him. Before he ran out of the capital, he would catch a turtle in a jar.

He was truly a stray dog whose life was like straw. No matter what, he was a dignified Former Crown Prince and in the end, he couldn't be a good person.

On the third day after the order to search, there were a long line of people waiting to leave the city. Due to the strict investigation on the people leaving the city these days, it took a lot of time and effort. After half a day, they finally moved a few steps forward.

Amongst the people dressed in all sorts of clothes and clothes, there were two very unremarkable old men. They described them as a little slovenly, stooped, and hobbled, like a couple supporting each other. The old man walked with trembling steps as if he had contracted some sort of illness, and the old man was small and thin, with a sallow complexion.

The two of them were Abandoned Crown Prince and Lady Shi who had not left the city in time.

After all, she was someone who had been a crown prince before. Once she peeled off the skin of the crown prince, she would be like a stray dog, unable to take it out with her. Thinking about how the entire Shi family would have to bear all the humiliation for the sake of such a thing, she felt extremely aggrieved.

Abandoned Crown Prince muttered, "It's all because of your fear, it's better to leave the city two days earlier. Look at how strict the investigation is now, what happens if you are recognized!"

The Lady Shi was too lazy to bother with him. Did he really think that it would be so easy for him to escape from the palace and travel to the capital? Recently, at Tianjin Port, even the Yongping Prefecture had been in an uproar. The forces that had been waiting in ambush outside the capital had no choice but to withdraw. There weren't even any reinforcements coming out of the city. Were they waiting for someone to apprehend them?

Furthermore, they really did not expect Elder Official Xie to be so ruthless, killing everyone the moment they appeared. They had so easily found a hiding place that they were unable to escape being searched, not even leaving their nests or nests behind. If she did not react fast enough to escape, the two of them would have probably been decapitated by now.

Lady Shi's eyes were buried in his wrinkled face, staring unwaveringly at the crowd of people who were moving forward step by step. Very good, the soldiers who were guarding the city had started to tire and slacken, the group was clearly going faster than before, and it was a good thing for them, as long as they could endure through it, most of the matters would be settled.

However, the more Abandoned Crown Prince walked, the more he trembled. His heart was beating so fast that he didn't seem like an old man, Lady Shi just wanted to knock him out with one palm.

When they were about to move to the city gate, suddenly, a few leaders came. The city guards who had been perfunctory for most of the time, immediately became alert, as if they had been injected with chicken blood. The team slowed down again, Lady Shi's heart could not help but rise.

When it was their turn to search the two of them, the city guards obviously hated them. Even with Shangguan Bing who was guarding them, his hands were unwilling to stick to them, so he impatiently let them go after pretending. Anyway, age was not the main point of a search.

Lady Shi supported Abandoned Crown Prince as they walked out of the city gate. Just now, the Abandoned Crown Prince was completely frightened, both his legs were trembling, and there was something exposed in his crotch. A fishy smell drifted out, and all the soldiers who were a few steps away frowned.

Lady Shi said in a low voice: "You are shivering! If you all come out, don't come up with any tricks. Keep your feet steady! "

He felt that the two of them were a little strange. The higher-ups had instructed them that they should pay extra attention to the man and woman who were leaving the city together, so of course Abandoned Crown Prince and Yue Yang couldn't appear in front of everyone as they were before. The possibility of the two of them changing their appearances was very high, would they disguise themselves as old grannies?

"Hey!" "Elders, please wait a moment!"

Hearing the sudden shout, Abandoned Crown Prince paused subconsciously, and then fiercely pinched his arm, "Pretend you didn't hear me, don't stop!"

Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to hear him, the small leader quickly walked up and said, "Old two elders, please stay here for a moment."

The Lady Shi heard the person walk in and slowly stopped. He turned his body with difficulty and pretended that he was deaf, "Ah? Are you calling for us? "

Just as he was about to ask a few questions, he suddenly saw that the old man, who had his head lowered, had exposed a piece of his neck. The skin on his neck was shiny and smooth, and when he looked at the roots of his hair, he seemed to be black and green, so his pupils constricted as he shouted to the person at the city gate: "Come!"

When the Lady Shi heard this, he immediately dragged the Abandoned Crown Prince and ran, while the leader was not paying attention, through the crowd towards the wild forest on the side of the road. The Abandoned Crown Prince lived like a prince, after running two steps he would breathe heavily and not be able to move his legs, if the Lady Shi ran, he would have to struggle to run, but after seeing a small pit, the Lady Shi immediately pulled him and jumped into it, then specially found a place filled with dense grass and trees, hoping to hide for a while.

The city guards came after them, although they did not see where the two of them were hiding, but as long as they locked onto a place, they would not have to worry about not being able to find them, so Lady Shi did not want to sit still and wait for death, he wanted to pull him along, but Abandoned Crown Prince did not dare move, "I can't run anymore, if I want to kill them, let them be, I would rather die than run!"

"Truly a piece of trash! If you don't run, how many people will have to suffer with you! "

Lady Shi dragged him along like a dead dog for a few steps, and just as he stuck his head out from a pile of dried up grass, he saw a person standing in front of him. Lady Shi panicked and slowly raised his head, and saw that this person was standing with his hands behind his back, with a face covered by a veil, looking down on them.

That person said, "I'm here to give you directions. If you want to live, then just follow me."

The Lady Shi steeled his heart and brought Abandoned Crown Prince with him. The man walked a few steps forward before turning around and looking at the two of them with contempt, "I won't save the trash, I won't care about the ones that can't follow him."

Lady Shi glared at Abandoned Crown Prince fiercely, "Hurry up and leave!"

The city guards naturally could not find any trace of them. They had told them to run, but one thing was certain, they had just left the city. As long as they locked onto a few paths in the capital, unless they had wings, they would find them sooner or later.

The search for the Abandoned Crown Prince was still in full swing, but the Shi family was the first to face the extermination of their entire family, but they were well-prepared, all their belongings and children had already been sent away, leaving Master Shi and a few of his concubines to sing the song of an empty city, there was nothing to copy, so they locked them up for trial.

With such a large family, it was not easy to copy the Lu Family, because there were too many people in the Lu Family who were unable to determine which family was the guilty one, thus they had to copy it all down, the first to copy it was Lu Kun, which naturally included Lu Bingsheng and Xie Jingyi.

Luckily, Xie Jingxi had mentioned a few things to Xie Jingyi before, and Lu Bingsheng was currently in the Northwest Garrison, so before the incident, he had already sent Niu Niu and Rong out early. As a result, Xie Jingyi was the only one who was imprisoned, and she had already made up her mind not to ask, but Xie Jingxi could not just let him be, thus she spent her days and nights thinking about how she could save them safely.
