Chapter 602: Palace Conspiracy (Part 2)
Hearing this news, Xiao Mingzi was not relieved, after thinking it through, even the queen's expression remained tense.
Xiao Mingzi raised his eyebrows and ordered: "Go down! Tell them to report as soon as there is any news!"
"yes!"
After the spies went down, the queen said in a deep voice, "Xiao Mingzi, what do you think?"
Xiao Mingzi pondered.
They didn't expect Wu Chen to hide his strength. They should have been happy when they heard about this kid, but they couldn't be happy at all.
Because, they all know that it is not the last moment, and no one knows what will happen.
After all, Xiao Yu gave them too many surprises.
Xiao Mingzi pondered for a while, and said: "Madam, although Wu Chen is the strongest person in the southern region, I don't think Xiao Yu may have a chance to counterattack, but we have to be mentally prepared, just in case, and prepare other countermeasures .”
This idea is exactly what the queen is thinking now.
Yes, if they really made the right bet and Xiao Yu was killed, then of course it would be great, everything went according to their plan.
However, once they made a wrong bet, Xiao Yu counterattacked, and Wu Chen lost, then the situation would change, and the royal family had to start to get rid of Xiao Yu again.
"Report!"
"Um!?"
Xiao Mingzi was very surprised: "Could it be another spy from the Southern Region?"
According to the logic, the spies over there would not have news so soon, because the spies just left not long ago.
"What's up!?"
The spy knelt down and said, "It's the Western Sand Region Letter."
The Xisha Domain is an area to the west of the Chenbei Dynasty.
Xiao Mingzi breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid of hearing bad news from the Southern Region.
"Say, what's the matter?" Xiao Mingzi asked after a pause.
The spy said: "According to our people patrolling over there, there have been many mysterious people appearing recently, and a few people have died in our Tianfu Gate. We suspect it is the Ghost Gate."
"Um!?"
The queen's phoenix eyes suddenly flickered, and she seemed a little surprised.
Xiao Mingzi waved his hand, motioning for the spy to go down.
"Xiao Mingzi, do you know about this?" The queen asked in a deep voice.
Being in a high position, one must know how to observe words and expressions. Obviously, the change in Xiao Mingzi's demeanor just now was seen by the queen.
Xiao Mingzi lowered his head and replied: "Returning to Madam, as early as half a month ago, the spies had sent news that there was a mysterious person active in the Xisha area, but the signs were not obvious. Xiao Mingzi did not report to Madam in order to confirm more news. But Now it seems that the ghost gate is very likely to appear in our dynasty."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Mingzi took a deep breath. The Ghost Nether Gate is a malignant tumor. It was wiped out by the Chenbei Dynasty many years ago. What the royal family fears most is their resurgence.
It's just that I didn't expect that after so many years, the Ghost Nether Gate would really reappear? If the Ghost Nether Gate appears, they will be the first to take revenge, and they will definitely deal with the royal family!
"Unexpectedly, there is a problem in the southern region that has not been resolved, and now there is another ghost gate in the Xisha region..."
Xiao Mingzi was worried.
The fighting power of the royal family is not strong, if people from the Ghost Gate take the opportunity to infiltrate the capital, then it will be in big trouble.
He did know that the reason why the queen has been in power these years is because the "king" of the dynasty has been in seclusion. Until the royal family is destroyed, their king will not appear.
Moreover, the princes and princesses here are either practicing outside or cultivating in sects, so they have no ability to protect the capital at all.
Suddenly, the queen's heart moved, her red lips slightly raised, and she said lightly: "The ghost gate is revived, it is impossible to revive it so quickly, isn't there still the fifth prince guarding there?"
"Although the fifth prince is powerful, he is arrogant, extravagant and indulgent. I'm afraid that the Ghost Gate will sneak in."
"Hehe, if the worst happens, isn't it just right?"
Xiao Mingzi frowned, suddenly realized.
