Reborn as King again

Chapter 271 Follow-up: Life in Cloud City

After going around in a big circle, he was still demoted to Yuncheng, without a title, and went there as a criminal.

On the way to Yuncheng, it's not that I haven't thought about escaping or making a comeback, but I know that now is not the time to talk about these things, the only thing I have to do is to save my life.

Although on the surface, the emperor let me go and spared my life, but on the way, as long as I resisted a little bit, the guards who escorted me would definitely kill me, because their expressions were very strange along the way. Nervous, I have been observing secretly to see if there is something strange about me.

So I have always been very honest, didn't I always say that if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood, so let them let go of their guard first.

Yuncheng is a place with a very harsh environment, where life is difficult and resources are scarce. Most of the people who come to Yuncheng are coolies, because it seems that things like marble are abundant here in Yuncheng.

After nearly two months of trekking and traveling all night, I finally arrived at Yuncheng. As I imagined, this place is as desolate as I imagined.With the will of my father, the guards handed me over to the owner of the quarry, and I will be at his disposal from now on.

It seems that on the surface, the guards who escorted me sent me to Yuncheng, even if the task was successfully completed, but in fact it was not the case at all. How could the suspicious nature of the emperor just ignore me? !Around me, there must be my father's eyeliner. They are secretly observing my actions and will always inform my father of my movements, so I can't make any moves.

Even if I am demoted and exiled, I am still a member of the royal family, a prince, and the owner of the quarry is not such a shameless person. He will not really let me go to the palace like the hundreds of thousands of coolies in his hands. Facing the loess and back to the sky to work, if you don't work well, you will be beaten up or something.

The owner arranged a place for me at the foot of the stone mountain. It was a thatched hut. Compared with those coolies, I was much better. Three meals a day were sent to me. Dead man, this is how I started my life in Yuncheng.

The father's eyeliner is hidden among these thousands of coolies. I don't know who they are, so I have to find out slowly.

My life in Yuncheng is very free, and I live in peace and stability. I can’t always stay in that thatched hut. I often go out for a stroll, go to the market, and go to the quarry. I treat everyone modestly. People are very simple and easy to get along with, so when they knew that I was the prince who made mistakes, they didn't isolate me.

Everyone thought that this was the end of my life, and I had to live, grow old, get sick and die in Yuncheng.That's how I made those people think that I had given up and just wanted to live a peaceful life in Yuncheng.

When I let myself go in Yuncheng, drunk and dreaming, I would occasionally hear news from the capital. All the subordinate small countries, under the oppression of my father, the monarchs of those countries, in order to keep their status and their own glory and wealth , chose to surrender, and the father unified the entire Central Plains.

The father is very powerful, he became the first emperor to unify the Central Plains in thousands of years, but there is a saying that it is easy to start a business but difficult to maintain a business. The country that the father has built over the years depends on whether his prince can hold it for him.Hearing that the father intends to pass the throne to the seventh prince Li Shao, he has begun to gradually cultivate him.

I never gave up, I was waiting, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the opportunity.

Day after day, year after year, I don’t know how many springs, summers, autumns and winters have passed. I have become more and more integrated into the life of Yuncheng. Two, sometimes go to the tavern, and get drunk with the coolies who have worked hard all day, and sometimes even take a few cool friends to meet the world and visit the kiln.

I stayed in Yuncheng for a full ten years, and finally got that opportunity.Today, as usual, I drank some wine and wandered back to my thatched hut.

After entering the room, I closed the door casually. I wanted to lie down on the bed and sleep, but suddenly I heard a sound behind me. I subconsciously dodged to the side. I saw a man in black behind him, holding a dagger, stabbing the bed. superior.

Because he used too much force, the dagger couldn't be pulled out for a while. I took this opportunity, took out the small knife I bought at the market from my boots, and wiped it directly at the neck of the man in black.

The reason I'm so good at it is because I close the door every day and practice how to fight back in this situation, because I know that sooner or later someone is going to kill me.

The blood on the neck of the man in black spurted out all of a sudden, and his neck was wiped, so he would definitely not survive.

I stretched out my hand to take off his mask. This man looked very familiar. He was a coolie in the quarry. I seemed to have drank wine with him a few times.

"Are you the eyeliner arranged by my father?" I asked.

The man covered his wound and stared straight at me without answering.

I didn't care too much, I just said casually: "Since the father sent you to take action, it means that he is about to die, right?"

"You..." The man was taken aback, and when he became agitated, he bled even more.

With a chuckle, I pulled out the dagger on the bed, and then slammed it into the man in black's chest, "Go to hell."

It is absolutely impossible for the father's eyeliner to be one person. After ten years, I have already figured out the identities of the other eyeliners.

After I got acquainted with the coolies in Yuncheng, I started to inquire about who came to Yuncheng to make a living within a year before and after I was assigned to Yuncheng. Among these people, there must be the eyeliner of my father, and Later, there may be one after another, and there are probably nearly 100 people among them.

You must know that the people who come to work as coolies are very mobile. Those who are in Yuncheng all the year round, especially the coolies who don’t go back to their hometown during the holidays, are the main suspects. I will eliminate these people one by one. According to individual observations, the father's eyeliner, there are 20 people in total.

In the past ten years, why have I lowered my figure, established a good relationship with the coolies, and called them brothers? !Waiting for this day!

In the early morning of the second day, when people were still asleep, the other Nineteen Brothers eyeliners had already been arrested. The people who arrested them were those coolies who called me brothers and sisters. Give it to them, now that someone is going to kill me, they will naturally help me out.

Nineteen eyeliners were all escorted to the quarry by the coolies.

I walked towards them with a smile. The nineteen people were all stunned. One of them, who seemed to be the leader, sneered and said, "Your Highness Sixth Prince, you are really hiding your secrets. We were all deceived by you."

I just smiled and said nothing, all these years of keeping a low profile is not just to make them let go of their guard.

"Is it really okay for you to do this?" The leader said: "You arrested us and killed us, thinking that the matter is over? As long as we don't send a message to the emperor within the stipulated time, the emperor will definitely investigate, you Doomed."

"Back then, I was able to get along like a fish in water among the Ouyang clan. Do you think I have no strength?" These eyeliners also underestimated me. As I said, I have been waiting for an opportunity.

These dozen or so people, at best, can only be regarded as the eyeliner of the father, not the kind of spies who spy on the national conditions of other countries.The biggest difference between eyeliners and spies is that they are not specially trained like spies, so when spies are caught and tortured, it is difficult to pry their mouths open.And eyeliner, to put it bluntly, is nothing more than surveillance, and under normal circumstances there is not much danger.

When I was in Zheng State, I caught countless spies. I knew how to torture them to the maximum and make them let go. To be honest, I never took these eyeliners to heart.

I just picked one out of the nineteen people, and used all the means of extorting a confession on that one person, and tortured him like [-] times by frying and cooking, while the other informants watched from the sidelines. Two hours passed, and their faces turned pale with fright. Among them, the leader who was sneering at me just now knelt on the ground with limp legs.

I walked up to the leader, lowered my head, and said with a smile: "I will give you two ways. The first way is to leave you a whole body, and it will pass after a while. The second way, just like him, is better off die……"

Eyeliner is not a spy after all, he compromised after being frightened.Under my half-coercion, the leader wrote back a letter to his father. It was a letter from Fei Ge, stating clearly that the matter has been settled.I'm not afraid of the leader playing tricks on me, he doesn't have that quality of heart.

Father is already seriously ill, this is his weakest time, he doesn't have much energy, so when he receives the letter from the leader, he won't doubt it, or a person as conceited as father, can't even dream Unexpectedly, I can still stand up.

Half a month later, the news of his father's death spread throughout the Central Plains.
