Countless people rushed into the palace, looking at the palace swallowed by flames but couldn't do anything. At this time, even heavy rain fell from the sky, it was useless.

The eunuchs and the palace maids stood around in a daze. Some of them were crying and screaming. Several eunuchs looked confused. They thought that what they were best at in their lives was to wash away the blood you left in this palace. Now the palace is burning away like this and you are leaving like this. What else can we do?

The fire was very big and could not be extinguished. It took three days and three nights to stop. The soldiers rushed into the ruins and began to search. They found that the gold and silver inlaid on the beams and pillars were burned into solidified magma, and how could they find the body of Emperor Chu?

Overnight, white banners were hung in countless houses, and the entire capital was like snow.

After Emperor Bai learned about this, he issued an order to be buried with the ritual of the king.

Grand Secretary Zhou was seriously ill and resigned immediately after he recovered from his illness and disappeared from now on.

Before this, the Minister of Taichang Temple had moved back to his hometown with the entire family of the former scholar's mansion.

No one will ever bear to blame His Majesty for his incompetence and cowardice.

If a monarch dies in his country, what else can you ask for?

Many people gradually remembered the situation when His Majesty the Emperor and Grand Secretary Zhang were in power, and they even felt countless nostalgia.

How many emperors will never leave the palace like His Majesty and never cause trouble?

Missing the past often means dissatisfaction with the present.

No one is willing to accept the rough and tough rule of Qin.

Many literati and scholars turned their pens and wrote many sad poems to mourn His Majesty who passed away in the fire. Many people insisted that His Majesty the Emperor was not dead at all, but instead escaped by the fire. At this time, they were living in seclusion in a certain place, either for monks or secretly preparing to restore the old country.

...

...

The palaces in Xianyang City are all black, and they look very solemn against the green mountains in the distance.

There was no sound around the main hall, and the black armored soldiers holding spears seemed to be breathless, which was even more frightening.

There is a striking white in the black hall, which is the most powerful man in the world today, the White Emperor.

Bai Zao came to the hall and naturally separated many colors because she was wearing a white dress.

"You know he is not dead yet, why are you still coming back?" Bai Qianjun asked staring into her eyes.

Bai Zao calmly looked back at him and said, "Are you questioning me?"

Bai Qianjun held his forehead with his hand and said, "Sorry, I am a little tired of managing state affairs."

A few years ago he once said that he wanted to forget something.

Bai Zao thought about it, his eyes drooped slightly, and his slender eyelashes did not tremble.

Bai Qianjun said: "We can't let him escape like this. We must find his whereabouts and confirm his life and death. We must arrest the eunuchs and maids in the Chu Palace, as well as those ministers. Under severe punishment, we will definitely gain something. I don't believe that he has no trace left."

Bai Zao said: "This move is inappropriate. Since the general situation is settled, why bother with these details, which will cause trouble."

Bai Qianjun said: "Although Yunqi has a high reputation, it is useless for scholars to talk quietly, so we need not pay attention to it. Eunuch He is indeed difficult to deal with, but after all, he is a eunuch. When Emperor Zhao is older, there will inevitably be problems in Zhao State. We just need to wait. But on Emperor Chu, you have said that you should pay attention to him several times, but why is it not the general trend now?"

Bai Zao said: "The king of the country is a rootless duckweed. No matter how strong the wind is, it can only follow the flow. How can a person shake the world?"

Bai Qian was silent for a while and said, "This statement makes sense."

"I'll go and rest first."

Bai Zao walked out of the hall.

Eunuch Gao outside the hall looked at her and quickly knelt down to salute.

She didn't even look at this person, nor did she pay attention to the slaughtering and powerful soldiers outside the hall.

Before she arrived at the stone steps, she suddenly stopped and thought about something. Instead of turning around, she continued to walk down.

...

...

Eunuch Gao came to the depths of the black palace, knelt in front of the emperor, and held a list with both hands.

Bai Qianjun took the list and looked at it roughly, his face slightly dark, obviously dissatisfied.

"It can be basically confirmed that Emperor Chu did not escape with the mission, but he couldn't ask many things too carefully..."

Eunuch Gao said with his head down, his voice trembling slightly.

As the chief supervisor of the Xianyang Imperial Palace, he is one of the few people who knows His Royal Highness the real status of His Royal Highness in Qin State and has influenced His Majesty the Emperor.

He did not dare to offend His Highness the Princess, so it was naturally inconvenient to use methods against the people in the mission.

Bai Qianjun said in a cold voice: "Take everyone in the mission to the side hall, I will watch you and ask in person."

...

...

The side hall is also completely black and has less light, so it looks even more gloomy.

The officials and deacons in the mission were taken into the hall one by one and accepted the question from Eunuch Gao, but they did not find His Majesty the Emperor sitting deep in the hall.

After asking questions from the officials and the deacons, no problems were found. Next, it was the managers of those businesses.

The Qin delegation secretly entered Chudu and borrowed the name of a business, so they recruited several managers to assist.

A business manager came to the side hall, walked to Eunuch Gao, and bowed slightly, as if he was ready to bow.

Deep in the hall, Bai Qianjun, who was sleeping in the shadows, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the man.

The business manager looked a little thin, but the sound of his footsteps falling on the floor showed that his body was heavier than he looked.

Bai Qianjun didn't even think about it and shouted, "Stop him!"

Eunuch Gao's expression changed suddenly, and hesitated to stop the business manager.

The business manager bowed slightly, not preparing to bow, but preparing momentum, just like a hard bow gradually drawn.

His steps were heavily on the floor, and several cracks were made, and his whole body rushed out like an arrow from the string.

Eunuch Gao is a master in the Xianyang Palace. Before the opponent's thunderous power, he had no power to fight back, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

With a crack, his body disappeared and turned into pieces of flesh and clothing flying all over the sky!

A flying sword penetrated the blood rain and instantly came to Bai Qianjun.

Bai Qianjun let out a sharp roar, his arms crossed and closed, and the magic weapon on his wrist emitted a solemn aura, blocking the flying sword.

The sharp sword body and magic weapon kept rubbing, and countless sparks burst out.

On the other side of the spark, a figure could be seen vaguely pounced on it like a tiger.

Bai Qianjun fell to the ground.

An extremely thick iron plate fell from the hall, hitting the ground heavily, splashing countless smoke and dust, making loud noises, turning into an insurmountable iron gate.

More than a dozen Qin army masters had already arrived in front of Bai Qianjun and raised iron shields to protect them tightly.

The two powerful defenses in front and behind finally made Bai Qianjun feel relieved, and a look of shame and anger appeared on his face.

Suddenly his expression changed again, because the assassin who controlled the sword and killed people had already arrived before the iron gate - the iron gate that was more than two inches thick could not be shot through even the siege crossbow. Logically speaking, there should be no need to worry, but for some reason he was still a little uneasy and subconsciously took two steps back.

There was a loud bang!

It was like the thunder that was supposed to be high in the sky exploded in the hall, and it was like two hammers weighing tens of thousands of pounds colliding head-on.

The air waves rolled and gushed in the side hall, and smoke and dust were ripped.

All the Qin army masters holding iron shields were shaken to the ground, and blood was squirting, and most of them died.

Bai Qianjun was protected very strictly, but was still affected, covered in blood, and was supported by the Qin army master who arrived again to retreat to the rear.

Dozens of Qin army masters set up layers of shield formations in front of him, and countless crossbow arrows aimed at Yanchen.

The smoke and dust gradually fell, and the pictures in the hall gradually became clearer.

Only then did people find that the iron gate was actually bombarded with a big hole!

Someone stood by Yanchen, lowered his head, looking weak.

His left sleeve was broken, revealing his seriously deformed iron arm, his messy hair was fluttering, and several white hair was visible.

It is Zhuo Rusui.

He shattered the Qin court master with one sword, punched through the iron plate, killed more than ten powerful Qin soldiers, and seriously injured Qin Emperor. This combat power was really terrible. Of course, he also paid a great price for it. His chest was covered with blood stains, and his weakness was no longer because of difficulties, but because of fatigue.

More Qin masters rushed over and directly demolished a corner of the side hall, erected countless iron shields, but no one dared to step forward.

Bai Qianjun was helped up, looked at Zhuo Rusui through the shield formation, and thought pale. He was indeed a little monster from Qingshan Sect. He was so powerful in the illusion. He had reached the Youye Realm in less than 40 years!

You should know that Youye or the first infant are the upper limit of the realm in the Qingtianjian illusion.

"So what if you are strong?"

He said to Zhuo Rusui: "You are still dead today."

Zhuo Rusui slowly raised his head, stared at his eyes and said, "Don't talk nonsense, have the ability to fight one by one."

Bai Qianjun said slightly mockingly: "This is a battle for hegemony in the world, not a brave fight. He attempts to fight against a country with his own strength. That is what the fools do."

Zhuo Rusui said: "You asked on behalf of Zhongzhou. You are forced by Qingshan disciples to hide in the turtle shell for the rest of your life. Are you afraid of being embarrassed?"
