Thinking about what she had said, Gu Yiyi felt that it was outrageous.

From their perspective, it is nothing but self-boasting, as if they are making themselves sound like gods.

But she didn't know how to cover up the lie. After all, Shen Changfeng would see it with his own eyes and he was also her closest person, so she felt there was no need to lie.

I'm just not sure if he's willing to believe it.

But I didn't expect him to smile affirmatively: "Of course I believe you."

Hearing this, Gu Yiyi's eyes became warm and she couldn't help but hug him: "Changfeng, it's best if you can trust me."

But at the moment, the two were in danger and there was no time to delay any further.

She wiped her tears and said bluntly, "So which way should we go out now? Do you think this tunnel can lead directly to the Imperial City?"

Shen Changfeng nodded, walked to the front, and used the flashlight in Gu Yiyi's hand to illuminate the front.

As he walked, he said, "This is a secret passage that the previous emperor repaired many years ago. It not only leads directly to the imperial city, but also directly to the imperial palace."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yiyi was surprised and asked, "It can lead directly to the palace?!"

“Well, we walked all the way from the Imperial City, but we actually had to take a long detour through three mountains. The official roads were all built along the foot of the mountains, so it took us so long.

But this tunnel goes straight through the mountain, and it is integrated with the foothills behind the palace. It is also a retreat that the late emperor thought of in order to prevent a coup in the palace.

I didn't expect it would be useful now. But there is more than one road here, and one leads to the gate of the imperial city."

He roughly calculated the time in his mind and then told Gu Yiyi.

"If we calculate according to the normal time, it would take Xie Anze about two days to leave Tiantai Temple and go to the Imperial City. We don't have horses, so even though we took a shortcut, it might take us about the same amount of time as him. In two days, General Guoan's troops should be able to reach the Imperial City. But without time to deploy, I'm afraid..."

"I have a solution!"

Gu Yiyi immediately thought of something, grabbed Shen Changfeng's hand, and looked over with burning eyes.

Her eyes were extremely clear and bright in the darkness.

"Let's change our route and head for the city gate."

Shen Changfeng didn't know what Gu Yiyi was thinking for a moment, but he believed her.

So do as she asks without hesitation.

Gu Yiyi planned to tell him her plan while rushing to her destination.

And while Shen Changfeng was not paying attention, she took out a portable electric skateboard from the space.

This was something she needed to complete her missions before she was reborn.

It can escape from the control of others as quickly as possible. Although the speed cannot be compared with that of a car, it is enough in this era!

She took this thing out and put it in front of Shen Changfeng. Seeing his slightly surprised face, there was no time to explain so much.

"Stand behind me and hold me tight."

Shen Changfeng did as he was told.

After the two wheels started, they moved quickly forward on the road.

Unfortunately, this is not a flat concrete ground, so the speed cannot be reached at the fastest, but at least it is enough for them to run.

So they arrived at the city gate faster than they had imagined, a full day and night later.

After the two men came out of the tunnel, their clothes were disheveled and their hair was slightly messy, just like refugees fleeing from a disaster.

At this moment, the imperial city was just like usual, nothing happened.

The people inside would never have imagined that a coup had taken place in Tiantai Temple, and even their lives were hanging by their necks.

Looking at the people coming in and out as usual, the two looked at each other and disappeared among the crowd of ordinary people.

We started to deploy according to the plan Gu Yiyi said.

When everything was completed, it was time to close the city gates.

They returned to the tunnel, changed direction, and headed directly to the palace...

On the other side, Xie Anze's troops were gradually approaching the imperial city.

The fire in Tiantai Temple now "burned" into the imperial city.

More and more people saw the flames reaching the sky in that direction and countless ashes floating in the air, and they began to speculate.

"It is said that Tiantai Temple is on fire! Your Majesty, what should you do?"

"It's strange. The sacrificial ceremony has already been over for two days. Why haven't the carriages and horses from the palace returned yet?"

"Is it really on fire?! Oh, what should I do?"

But everyone's discussions were just speculations, and no one knew the real news over there.

At the same time, Xie Anze's death squad had basically taken control of the entire imperial city.

He sat high up in the chariot, looking at the huge town ahead, and the anger in his heart suddenly surged.

"Hahahaha, finally! This is all mine!!"

What Shen Huai, what Xiao family members, they will all become puppets under his feet.

The entire Apocalypse Kingdom belongs to him! !

Those who looked down on me in the past should now open their eyes and take a good look at who is having the last laugh.

The officials around him also looked happy and changed their words respectfully.

"Congratulations, Master Xie. You are now the new emperor! We just need to go all the way into the palace and get the imperial seal, and you will be the legitimate emperor!"

"Long live my emperor!"

He knelt down on the spot and kowtowed vigorously.

Xie Anze curled the corners of his lips and looked towards the direction of the imperial palace, already impatient.

"What are you waiting for? As long as I get the imperial seal, General Guoan's men will not be able to escape from my grasp once they arrive!"

"go!"

Following his order, the convoy entered the imperial city in a mighty manner and headed straight for the palace gate.

The guards who were originally guarding the palace gate were all killed by his death squad before he arrived.

Not even the corpse was left behind. All those standing outside the palace gate were Xie Anze's men.

He arrived at the palace without any obstruction.

The majestic and imposing palace seemed to have his own name written on it.

He had been to this familiar place countless times, but every time, he came respectfully as a courtier and left with a bow.

Only this time, you will become the master!

He held his chin high and waved his sleeves until the sedan chair stopped in front of the main hall. He then slowly descended with the help of others.

Standing at the bottom of those hundreds of stone steps, his face was filled with incomparable pride!

He raised his feet and walked forward step by step. Each step represented his past life which was too painful to look back on.

From childhood to adulthood, I have always lived under the aura of Shen Huai.

No matter what he did, he was always inferior to him! He was always ignored!

Until he fought back and made everyone in the Shen Mansion pay the price, from then on, his career was smooth!

At that time he understood that sometimes people who valued friendship and loyalty would only bring him endless cowardice and frustration!

Sometimes, only means and ruthlessness can create a wider world!

I wonder if he has ever regretted what he did to the Shen family?
