Aunt, please don't chase me. I don't want to be the emperor.

Could the thief who suddenly appeared in this sewage treatment plant be a serious criminal of the imperial court? Otherwise, why would Lord Su arrive so quickly?

Su Luoxue immediately asked the person in charge of the processing site for the specific situation, and the person in charge immediately answered truthfully.

But in fact, he didn't know much. He only knew that many soldiers in the field were knocked unconscious, but he didn't know anything else. After all, nothing was missing and no one was injured or killed, so he couldn't figure out what was going on.

Su Luoxue knew what was going on, but she didn't say it.

It's impossible to tell these people that the emperor escaped from the palace through a stinking ditch and emerged from the bottom of a sewage lake. Neither Su Luoxue nor the royal family of the Great Zhou could afford to lose this person, so the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Su Luoxue asked: "Do you know where the thief ran to?"

The person in charge replied: "Your Excellency, we didn't see what the thief looked like, so we really don't know which direction he ran."

"Okay, I understand..." Su Luoxue looked at the accompanying Commander Liu Huang with a cold gaze and ordered him, "Notify the leaders of the seven secret guards in Chang'an to enter the palace immediately!"

"Yes!" Liu Huang bowed and saluted, but then asked, "Master Su, don't we need to mobilize the Chang'an garrison and troops from all over Yongzhou?"

Liu Huang knew that Su Luoxue was going to send out seven secret guards to search for the whereabouts of His Majesty. However, although the seven secret guards were all elite, they were only a small number of people after all. Shouldn't the search be a carpet search by a large group of people?

Su Luoxue looked at him expressionlessly: "If the news leaks out, who will take the responsibility?"

"understood."

Liu Huang nodded and said no more.

Su Luoxue's meaning was very clear, and Liu Huang also understood it.

If the Chang'an defenders and the garrisons in various parts of Yongzhou were dispatched, a huge number of people would need to be mobilized, and Su Luoxue could not possibly not tell them who they were looking for, otherwise the news would inevitably leak out.

There is really no way I can tell anyone about such an embarrassing thing...

......

Ji Xian ran south along a lake outside the official road for more than ten miles before stopping. Then she immediately went into the river to wash off the mud on her body, and then took out new clothes from her bag and changed into them.

Its bag is made of the fur of exotic animals. It is not only water-proof but also fire-resistant. The effect is very good, and the things inside are not dirty.

After washing off the dirt, changing his clothes, and tying his hair up, Ji Xian looked like a handsome young man at first glance.

With the bag and two swords on his back, Ji Xian looked like a young knight in red and white clothes.

"call......"

Ji Xian let out a long breath, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and calculated the current time.

He didn't have a compass on him, so he could only determine his direction by the position of the moon.

The direction is correct. Just continue along the official road and you will head south.

Ji Xian had studied the map. From here, he could continue south to Yungang. Then he could find a post station and ask for a horse to head southeast. After arriving at Anbin County, he would find a river and go downstream to Jingzhou.

As long as he leaves Yongzhou, it will not be easy for the Zhou Dynasty to capture him.

.......

Another half hour later, in the Chang'an Palace...

Compared with the still bustling Chang'an City, the atmosphere in the palace is now terribly heavy. No matter what level of cultivation people have, they dare not breathe after hearing the latest news.

Not everyone knew the news, but the atmosphere spread quickly and permeated every corner of the palace.

Someone asked colleagues why the atmosphere was so tense. Those who didn't know said they didn't know, while those who knew didn't dare to speak.

The last blind man had been dragged away, had his bones broken, and then thrown into the prison...

In the imperial study, all seven secret guards arrived.

The Seven Secret Guards of the Great Zhou are the seven most elite secret guard organizations of the Great Zhou, namely the Silver Dragon Guard, the Fierce Sparrow Guard, the Iron Guard, the Blue Tiger Guard, the Flying Unicorn Guard, the White Horse Guard, and the Sky Fox Guard.

The seven secret guards each have their own duties.

The Seven Marshals of the Great Zhou were the top masters in the Great Zhou and even in the whole world. The leader of the Seven Marshals, Marshal Silver Dragon, was Su Luoxue's father.

The current situation in the martial arts world is uncertain, and there are many messes in the four foreign lands that need to be dealt with. Therefore, the seven generals of the Great Zhou are not in Chang'an at present. The people who came to the imperial study this time are the leaders of the seven secret guards who stayed in Chang'an.

"I've met Mr. Su."

The seven responsible persons stood in the imperial study and bowed to Su Luoxue together.

Su Luoxue turned around and looked at them, without any further ado, and went straight to the point.

"His Majesty has escaped."

"what?"

The seven secret guards were all stunned, and then Su Luoxue briefly told them everything.

Everyone broke out in cold sweats after hearing this.

They were no longer surprised by His Majesty's escape. They were able to capture him and bring him back to the palace every time, and he had never escaped from the city gates of Chang'an.

But this time, His Majesty successfully escaped from Chang'an.

Because Your Majesty... fled directly to the outskirts of Chang'an City through a stinking ditch.

The ditch in the Imperial Garden is actually fine, but if it flows out of the city, it will be mixed with more and more other drainage in the city, and all kinds of stains, garbage and dirt will gather together.

By the time the water was drained outside the city, no one dared to think about what it was, as they would vomit if they did.

The seven secret guards were all panicking, some even complaining in their hearts that His Majesty was really taking risks...

After Su Luoxue finished explaining the situation, she began to make specific arrangements: "You will lead your men to act separately, set up checkpoints on the main roads of Yongzhou, and search all places along the way. Don't let His Majesty escape from Yongzhou."

"Yes!"

The seven secret guards all bowed.

Su Luoxue then turned her gaze to one of the women, a captain of the Lieque Guard. "Captain Mo, immediately gather the Lieque Guard in Chang'an and stand by. Once I have dealt with the affairs of the court, you will join me."

"Yes."

Lieutenant Mo Yu of the Lieque Guard bowed and saluted, then asked, "But Lord Su, now that His Majesty has fled, and you want to join us, what about the daily affairs of state?"

"I'll take care of it."

Su Luoxue said coldly, "Let's go find the Imperial Master first and have him calculate the whereabouts of His Majesty."

There are currently five Yangshen-level masters in Chang'an of the Great Zhou Dynasty, namely His Majesty the Emperor Ji Xian, Chief Minister Su Luoxue, Prime Minister Di Qingtian, and Director of the Imperial Hospital Sun Miaoying.

But the above four are not the most powerful.

In terms of strength, the most powerful one is the fifth, the current National Master of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the former Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master Mansion in Qinglei Mountain, and one of the strongest people in the world today, Zhang Mengxuan.

1.4 His Majesty the Emperor is a Divine Calculator

Time, November 11th.

Two days have passed since Ji Xian escaped from the palace...

Anbin County is located in the southeast of Yongzhou area, connected with Liangzhou and Yuzhou, and can be regarded as an important transportation center.

And because of the war that took place eighteen years ago, all parts of Yongzhou needed emergency repairs and reconstruction. Therefore, Anbin County became an important hub for transporting materials at that time, and became more prosperous than it was more than a decade ago.

At this moment, the sun is shining and the sky is cloudless.

Ji Xian led the horse into the city through the city gate and looked at the scene in front of her.

"Wow!"

Ji Xian laughed happily, as if she had seen a new world.

The streets were bustling with people coming and going, and there were shops and stalls everywhere in the streets and alleys. He could even see people performing, and not far away he could even see a stage with people performing.

Although it can't be said that she has seen these things before, all of this is still so new to Ji Xian.

Especially since it was the first time for Ji Xian to be alone in this place, she was naturally very happy.

At this time, Ji Xian was walking on the street and heard movement in front of her left.

He had very good hearing and could hear clearly what was happening in the room in front of him on the left.

"big big big!"

"Increase the bet!"

Hearing the noise, Ji Xian suddenly became excited.

Could it be the legendary gambling house?

Thinking of this, Ji Xian couldn't wait to run over.

I ran over and saw the plaque that read "Song's Gambling House".

It really is a gambling house.

Ji Xian seemed very happy. She had been wanting to go out and have some fun for a long time, and today she finally had the chance.

The clerk at the entrance of the gambling house, upon seeing Ji Xian's cheerful expression, immediately went over to greet him: "Hey, sir, would you like to play a few rounds?"

"Of course, lead the way."

Ji Xian handed the horse to the gambling house and took it to the backyard to feed, and then entered the gambling house under the guidance of the waiter.

"Hey, sir, which one do you want to play?"

"Let's start with the size."

"Oh good, this one just opened!"

The waiter then took Ji Xian to the table where they were betting on big or small.

There were really a lot of people in the gambling house. There were no less than a dozen people gathered around the gambling table.

When Ji Xian arrived, a new round had just started and many people began to place bets.

However, when he met Ji Xian, he said he had no money.

"Ok?"

Everyone around him looked at him strangely.

Even the gambling shop clerk frowned, then asked with an apologetic smile, "Sir...what do you mean?"

Although he was trying to force a smile, the guy's eyes were full of disdain, and it was clear that he was saying, "You have no money, why are you here to play if you have no money?"

But Ji Xian waved his hand, slammed the Undead Sword behind him on the table, and said with a smile: "This sword of mine is enough."

The Death Sword, the peerless divine weapon passed down to Ji Xian by his father, is enough to buy a hundred gambling houses.

Of course, there were not many people present who knew the value of the sword, but most of them could see that Ji Xian's sword was of extraordinary quality, so they didn't say anything and let him place his bet.

Seeing that the gambling house accepted it, Ji Xian immediately smiled as if everything was under control.

To be honest, Ji Xian didn't have a penny on her.

He was the emperor and could not leave the palace on weekdays. He had no need to spend money, so naturally he had no money on him.

This time when she escaped from the palace, Ji Xian was lucky to get a decent set of clothes, and it was even more impossible for her to carry any money. Therefore, from the very beginning, Ji Xian planned a way to make money while traveling around the world, which was gambling.

When Ji Xian was in the palace, she had secretly seen her subordinates playing games such as dice and card game, mahjong and pot throwing. Although Ji Xian had never participated, she had watched a few times and learned the game by watching.

Just by watching, Ji Xian knew how to play.

Just by looking at it, Ji Xian knew how likely her chances of winning were.

So, less than an incense stick of time later...

"It is small!"

"Ahhh, how come this kid won again!"

"Cheating, this is definitely cheating!"

Everyone who gambled with Ji Xian went crazy, scratching their scalps frantically.

Ji Xian sat on the chair with his arms folded, crossed his legs and said complacently: "Brothers, don't tell me you can't play if you can't. If you really can't play, blindfold me and you can roll the dice yourself."

These people listened to Ji Xian's words and did as they were told on the spot.

Then.....

"Thank you, everyone. I'll take the money."

"Do not!!!!"

Ji Xian took all the money on the table without any hesitation.
