Chapter 1330 A False Alarm
Chapter 1330 A False Alarm
Yun Shang was shocked and angry. She looked in the direction where the voice came. Regardless of
anything else, she called out the secret guards and jumped over with them.
Before they reached that place, they saw several other figures jumping up from the crowd and standing
on the top of the willow nearby.
They were Luo Qingyan and his secret guards.
Yun Shang felt relieved.
Luo Qingyan took Yun Shang over and transferred Yun Shang and the secret guards to a quiet alley
nearby.
Even though there were several walls, the sound could still be heard faintly. Someone was still
shouting, "His majesty is assassinated. Protect his majesty."
Yun Shang frowned and looked at Luo Qingyan, "What happened?"
Luo Qingyan shook his head and said, "I don't know. I'm not assassinated at all. When I'm answering
the riddles, I heard someone shouting. Then the people around me began to run away. There were too
many people. I couldn't get out."
"So, your majesty wasn't assassinated?"
"Yes."
Yun Shang frowned more tightly, "Then what happened just now? Is there someone deliberately
spreading rumors and creating chaos? "
"Maybe."
The two of them looked at each other and found that this matter was very suspicious.
Luo Qingyan thought for a moment, turned around and ordered the secret guards, "go over there and
ask what happened."
The two secret guards answered and left.
Yun Shang frowned and said, "if it's just to create chaos, what's the purpose? And does the person
who created chaos know that we are here? "
"It should be just a coincidence. Even the servants around us don't know that we left the palace. We
didn't tell anyone. We just came out on the spur of the moment with our secret guards."
"Along the way, the secret guards didn't find anyone following us. We just picked the street randomly,
and the chance of being found is very small. "
Yun Shang nodded, "if they don't know we are here, you are not here for us."
The two of them looked at each other. They really didn't understand what they wanted to do by creating
such a chaos.
"Is it just to destroy the lantern show and spread rumors, causing people to panic?"
"Saying that I was assassinated could indeed create a moment of panic, but as soon as I appeared
tomorrow, the rumor will be broken, right?"
Yun Shang thought for a moment and said, "Maybe they have another plan tomorrow?"
"Maybe when you appear in the court tomorrow, they will say that you are a fake?"
“……” Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang, "it's not difficult to prove whether or not I'm a real
one."
Indeed.
The officials in the court had a lot of contact with Luo Qingyan. It was easy to verify whether Luo
Qingyan was real or not.
Yun Shang speculated. After a while, the secret guards who went to investigate the news came back.
"What have you got?"
"We have inquired about the people and vendors around the place where the incident happened. At
that time, the scream came from a stall not far away from the one where your majesty was at. The stall
owner said that a handsome man in his thirties came with a beautiful woman and was buying lanterns
at his stall. Suddenly, three or four men in black rushed out from the side and pointed their swords at
the man. "
"Those assassins shouted, 'Go to hell, you damn emperor!’"
"Then someone shouted that the emperor was assassinated. Then the people around saw the situation Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
and heard the scream. They panicked and ran around in a hurry."
"The stall owner said that he had seen your majesty when your majesty was worshiped by the people
on the city tower and when your majesty passed through the city. After the incident, he felt that the
man's appearance was indeed similar to your majesty."
"There is no way we can get more information. Those people, whether the assassins or the men who
disguised as your majesty, have disappeared in the chaos just now."
Luo Qingyan nodded without saying anything.
Yun Shang tugged at Luo Qingyan's sleeve and said, "They probably have another plan. Let's wait and
see what they want to do. Why don't we go back to the Palace first and make a plan?"
Luo Qingyan nodded, but didn't move.
After a long time, Luo Qingyan said, "Since we found out and experienced this matter in the first place,
we can't sit still and wait for death, or wait for others to make a move and put ourselves in a passive
position."
Yun Shang blinked, "what do you want, your majesty?"
Luo Qingyan moved his fingers in the sleeves and said, "Since the news has been announced, I will
break the rumor thoroughly, leaving no room for it to spread."
Then Luo Qingyan turned around and ordered the secret guards, "Go back to the palace and tell Liu
Wenan that I've gone out of the palace with her majesty. I was so happy that I got drunk outside the
palace. Ask Liu Wenan to prepare honor guards and take us back to the palace."
The secret guard answered and flew towards the palace.
"Send a few more people to the place where the flow of people is more concentrated in the city to
check if there is any rumor about what happened just now. If there is, investigate it carefully and report
it to us."
"Yes."
Yun Shang blinked and looked up at Luo Qingyan. "Aren't we going back to the palace now?"
"No, I've already come out. How can I just go back without a reason? Let's have a good time. Come
with me to get the lantern king. Let's look around and see if you have anything to buy. Don't you want to
bring a lantern back to Chengye? Let me accompany you to choose one. "
Yun Shang lowered her eyes and smiled. He was surprisingly persistent in the lantern king.
Since Luo Qingyan had said so, Yun Shang had no reason to refuse. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll
go with you. We can't be separated again. I was scared just now."
Luo Qingyan nodded and said, "I was also shocked. We won't be separated. Let's go together."
Then the two of them walked out of the dark alley. Because of the fight just now, the people around the
stalls were much fewer.
The vendor still remembered Luo Qingyan. When he saw Luo Qingyan coming with Yun Shang, he
glanced at the two of them and smiled, "Are you here to get the lamp?"
"Yes." Luo Qingyan nodded, "There are still two riddles. You can read them. If I give you the right
answer, give me this lamp."
