Chapter 159 Return to Kyoto again

"We are just ordinary people, so how can we know so much? I advise you, women as beautiful as the two ladies, not to go to Kyoto, otherwise... haha, I'm afraid you will never have a chance to meet again from now on." The man smiled bitterly.

"Is it still forcibly robbing the girl?" Hua Rongrong's tone remained unchanged, but a faint haze was stained with her face.

"As long as a woman is a little pretty, she will enter the palace regardless of whether she is married or not."

"This emperor has such a big appetite. Can he hold on to so many women?" Yu Ji touched her chin, meaningful.

"I, I have reminded you, be careful, I'll leave first." After that, the man raised his foot and ran in the opposite direction of Kyoto.

Seeing the man's figure gradually disappear, Hua Rongrong's face became serious: "It seems that Ziyue Kingdom is in chaos. Is it really his temperament changed dramatically or is there something else?"

"No matter so much, or if that person is, we should listen. In order to avoid trouble, we should change our clothes a little bit before entering the city. This place is not far from Kyoto." Ye Yuan looked ahead and said lightly.

"It should be that Concubine Shu has returned. What I am worried about is that he is no longer in power." Shangguan Chen did not hide his worries. The father and mother were both in the palace, but they were afraid they had torture. He knew very well that according to Concubine Shu's temperament, it was impossible to give up so easily.

"Let's go into the city separately. This kind of group of people is too big and it is easy to attract attention." Yu Ji suggested.

"No need, I believe they, like Hua Yishen, know the existence of the forbidden source. When we come back, they cannot not know. The person just now should be theirs to test it. Since that's the case, let's face the enemy head-on." Shangguan Chen returned to normal and said calmly.

"Do you believe it?" Ye Yuan asked with his eyebrows raised.

Shangguan Chen curled the corners of his lips slightly: "If it were Shufei, she would at least not act rashly before she could find out our strength."

"You know her well." Ye Yuan teased.

Shangguan Chen glanced at him coldly: "Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. You know this principle better than me! National Master!"

"Okay!" Ye Yuan curled his lips and stopped talking. Many times he wondered why now he felt that he was gradually unable to fight these people?

Hua Rongrong and others were still moving forward and did not make any disguise.

The Kyoto gate is close at hand. Hua Rongrong looked at the tall and majestic city wall. According to their time, it was only two or three months since they left Kyoto. When she came back, she felt like a change of things and people had changed, as if she was a different life.

The soldiers guarding the city still conducted their duties in checking every person entering and leaving Kyoto, and there were still various signs on the edge of the city gate. Everything seemed the same as when they left, but the sorrow on the faces of the people entering and leaving had another meaning.

"Do you want to go in?" Ye Yuan hugged his hands and his eyes were patrolling the crowd.

"Let's go!" Shangguan Chen said lightly with a expressionless face.

What should come will come after all, and what should be faced will have to face sooner or later. He has never been a person who likes to escape, not to mention that this is an unprecedented crisis in Ziyue Kingdom. As the prince of Ziyue Kingdom, he has the responsibility to save his people from dire straits.

"Who! Where did you come from? What did you do in Kyoto?" As soon as they walked to the city gate, a soldier asked and looked up and down at these men and women who were dusty but still did not hide their outstanding appearance with suspicious eyes.

"Shangguan Chen, return to the capital." Shangguan Chen said coldly, and his majestic momentum followed.

"Shangguan Chen, ask where are you from?" The soldier hadn't reacted yet, and the three words Shangguan Chen meant. When he finished speaking, he was stunned and murmured: "Shangguan Chen, Shangguan Chen..."

The three words "The Third Prince" suddenly flashed through his mind, and the waist card that represented the identity of the prince in front of him suddenly knelt down, "Prince forgives the crime, the villain is confused for a moment, and he called the prince's name and asked the prince to spare his life."

The soldiers and passers-by around were a little stunned by the sudden state. Didn’t the third prince disappear in the world a year ago? Why did another prince come out? When the general guarding the city heard the report from the soldiers below, he immediately came to the city gate to see what happened.

"What happened? Ah, it all scattered, what's so good about it?" As soon as the general guarding the city came out, he roared at the people watching around him.

Seeing this, those passers-by were curious, but they were afraid of the fierceness of the generals defending the city, and left one after another, while not forgetting to look back at the subsequent development.

"What's wrong? Who claims to be the third prince?" The general guarding the city raised his head, looking tall and above.

"General!" The soldier who recognized Shangguan Chen pulled the general's hem and called out in a low voice.

"What's wrong? Ah? As the general of the Kyoto City Guardian, can't he ask anyone?" The general of the city guarding shook the soldier away and glanced at Shangguan Chen standing beside him coldly. This glance made him feel cold from his heart. The man who looked obviously just a man who looked indifferent and cold, why did his eyes burst out with a sharpness that was unsightly? A forced aura followed. The general of the city guarding immediately opened his eyes and did not dare to continue looking at Shangguan Chen.

"General, he, he is the third prince. He has the prince's waist card." The soldier reminded tremblingly.

Cold sweat came out of his vest, but he still thought that Shangguan Chen would be no longer alive. It was understandable that he disappeared once, but why did he have such good luck to come back alive for the second time? He pretended to be brave, "Is that right? Since that's the case, can I let me see the waist card?" Although he suspected that the person in front of him was pretending, his tone was no longer as arrogant as before, so he was much more polite.

Shangguan Chen slowly showed him the waist card in his hand. This made the general guarding the city lose his soul. This is the prince's waist card. Oh my God, he was so rude just now. Is there still hope for this career? The general guarding the city regretted it, but then he thought about it, even if the third prince came back, he might not have the chance to ascend the throne. After thinking about it, he was confident again, but just said politely: "I don't know if the prince is back, I have lost the opportunity to welcome him. If you offend me, please forgive me. This is also the responsibility of the general."

When Hua Rongrong saw his face, she guessed that the current situation in the court was extremely unfavorable to them. Otherwise, a small city-guarding general would dare to be rude to the prince!

"No obstacle, I'm running out for days. Can this general give way?" Shangguan Chen asked faintly with expressionless face.

"This is naturally, please, please." The general guarding the city bowed slightly and made a gesture of invitation.

From beginning to end, he never saluted Shangguan Chen!

Shangguan Chen took Hua Rongrong and his group proudly walked past the general guarding the city. The innate majesty still made the general guarding the city feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.

When Shangguan Chen walked away, he realized that his vest had already been sweating.

"Idiot!" He kicked the soldier who had just reminded him and left angrily. He had to report this to his superiors.

"Chen, it seems that the situation in the court is not optimistic, otherwise a small city-guarding general would dare to offend you." Hua Rongrong observed the surroundings without any trace, whispering.

Shangguan Chen said calmly: "This is expected, but I don't know that the father and mother in the palace can be safe."

"I think you probably can't enter the palace to see them." Ye Yuan smiled, "You should find that there are more than ten pairs of eyes staring at us on this street."

"I am quite curious. What else can they do besides staring at us?" Yu Ji returned to her previous cynical appearance. This is not Ulan, nor is it the source of taboos. Even if there are many situations that are not under control, this is still familiar to him. He likes this challenge.

"Things are not simple. Eight out of ten things that happened this year cannot be separated from the Endless Dark Abyss." Hua Rongrong said confidently, with a slight uneasy in her heart. If this is true, I believe that the emperor and Concubine De in the palace would be in trouble. Although Shangguan Chen looked indifferent and cold, she knew very well that Shangguan Chen paid the most attention to his parents and relatives, otherwise how could he tolerate Shangguan Yu again and again? Even though, it is said that Shangguan Yu was not the emperor's son.

"Rong Rong, I'm afraid that the demon god has been sealed and his skills have been constantly improving. But you are far inferior to before. This fierce battle is not so easy to win." Ye Yuan expressed his concerns. His memories came back, and many things naturally had their marks. "I wonder if you still remember that you were in the palace. You have been in the cold palace?"

When Ye Yuan reminded him, Hua Rongrong suddenly remembered the inexplicable words of that person that night. Although she would not be afraid of encountering such a thing again, she would never forget the horrifying situation that night.

"The person who said he wanted to eat melons? What do you want to say?" Hua Rongrong glanced at Ye Yuan.

"Before, I thought that the matter was just a secret fight in the harem, but now it seems that it is not. I said Shangguan Chen, do you remember that many people died in the palace eighteen years ago?" Ye Yuan asked in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Chen frowned and soon stretched out again. He thought for a while before saying, "I was young and ignorant at that time. I didn't know much about the origin of this matter. I only knew that if I hadn't been both of me and Shangguan Yu, we might have died that time."

"What the hell is it?" Hua Rongrong became more and more puzzled.

"This matter is a taboo in the harem and most people will not mention it. The mother never told me the truth. What I know was that I was just accidentally hearing the palace maids quietly discussing it in private. It is said that in just one afternoon, dozens of palace maids and concubines died in the harem for no reason, and no clues were found."

"Is this matter also related to the Endless Dark Abyss?" Hua Rongrong looked at Ye Yuan, "If that's the case, the palace is really full of dangers."

A trace of deepness flashed through Shangguan Chen's eyes: "Watch the change, let's suppress this matter for the time being."

When everyone heard this, they stopped talking.

The closer he got to the Third Prince's Mansion, the more he felt something was wrong. The road from the Kyoto Gate to the Third Prince's Mansion was not far, and this time Ali did not come out to greet him. No matter what happened, Ali could not leave the Prince's Mansion, because there were still a group of secret guards with high martial arts skills to send.

When they walked to the gate of the palace, they were all stunned.
