Surprise! The boss of the last days, reborn before the engagement

He opened his eyes, and there was a ruthlessness and determination in them, as if he had made some kind of decision.

He clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force, and spoke in a low and hoarse voice: "Gather all the secret guards and assassins, take the old lady with you, and we will leave through the tunnel. Hurry, we must leave within an hour, otherwise it will be too late."

The secret guard was slightly stunned, but still asked: "What about your three new concubines? Do you want to take them with you?"

Before he finished speaking, Chu Yichen waved his hand and interrupted him coldly: "No, they are just a cover to deceive people.

In this life-or-death situation, bringing them along would only be a burden. Go and make arrangements quickly, and remember to keep it secret and not let anyone know."

The secret guard took the order and left, leaving Chu Yichen alone in the study room again. He sat alone in front of the desk, looking at the dark night sky outside the window, feeling mixed emotions.

He thought: "I know that if I leave, I will be leaving my hometown and my future will be uncertain. But compared to staying in the capital and facing the impending disaster, I have no choice."

Half an hour later, the Zuo Xiang Mansion was busy yet quiet. The secret guards and assassins moved silently in the mansion, quickly moving the old lady and important items to the tunnel entrance.

Chu Yichen stood at the entrance of the tunnel, looking back at the mansion where he once held great power, and an indescribable sadness welled up in his heart.

He knew that this farewell might be forever, but he also knew that only by staying alive could he hope to avenge himself and his family.

"Let's go! It's time to leave." He whispered and stepped resolutely into the dark tunnel.

Behind us is the power and glory that will soon become a thing of the past; ahead of us is an unknown and challenging future.

At this moment, he seemed to hear the bell of fate ringing in his ears, reminding him that he must always remain vigilant and resilient in order to have a glimmer of hope for survival in this troubled world.

Inside the Yingyue Pavilion in the Taifu Mansion, the veils danced gracefully and the candlelight swayed, illuminating Chu Yiyi's gentle and profound outline.

She sat in front of the window, stroking an ancient book in her hand, but her eyes seemed to penetrate the pages and drift into the distance.

"Miss, it's getting late now, you should rest..." Qiluo's voice sounded at the right time, with a bit of tenderness and concern.

She walked into the room quietly, holding a basin of warm water in her hand, ready to wash Chu Yiyi.

Chu Yiyi raised her head and looked at Qiluo, a hint of apology and gratitude flashing in her eyes.

"Okay, I understand. You go down first!" she said softly, closing the ancient book in her hand and placing it on the desk beside her.

Seeing this, Qiluo hurriedly stepped forward, placed the basin of warm water in front of Chu Yiyi, and then bowed respectfully.

"Yes, I'll take my leave! Miss, have a good rest. If you need anything, just call me. I'll be waiting outside the door."

Chu Yiyi smiled and nodded. After Qiluo left the room, she slowly stood up.

Chu Yiyi wrapped herself with mental power, and then used her wind-related abilities, and soon she arrived at the study in the Prince's Mansion.

In the study, candles were brightly lit. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was sitting alone in front of the desk, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something important.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Eunuch Li has just sent someone to deliver the imperial edict." A low and respectful voice broke the silence of the study, and the butler Li Fu hurried in with a bright yellow imperial edict in his hand.

Upon hearing this, the prince raised his head quickly, with a hint of surprise and expectation in his eyes. "Oh? What is the decree? Why didn't Li Defu give it to me directly?"

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards Li Fu.

Li Fu handed over the imperial edict and said respectfully: "The imperial edict says that in one month, the envoys from the other four countries will arrive in our Xuantian Kingdom.

In order to show respect and welcome to the envoys from various countries, the emperor has decided to lift your house arrest in advance. Starting tomorrow, you can come and go freely.

Eunuch Li said it was too late, the palace gates were about to be locked, and he had to hurry back before that happened."
