Chapter 420 Two Can't Sleep

If you don't understand this problem, the emperor will never be able to sleep.Not to mention being afraid of Wang Sheng, if it was just Wang Sheng, it would be easy to handle.

Sitting face to face with Wang Sheng was not once or twice, even when Guanshi Zhou was away.If Wang Sheng wanted to kill the Son of Heaven, he really didn't need to sneak into the inner city of the imperial city so much trouble.

The problem is, if those people who have ulterior motives for the emperor also master the method of entering the imperial city, wouldn't it be easy to sneak in?

Even if the emperor can rest assured, can the three major offerings rest assured?Originally, the second prince brought people in, which already made the three priests lose their face. Later, Wang Sheng's arrival even sprinkled a handful of salt on their broken wounds, and the old face was almost lost.

Countless palace guards were literally checking every inch of the inner city of the imperial city where people might come in, and for most of the day, they found nothing.

With so many people, so many masters, including the emperor and the rebel side, no one knew how Wang Sheng entered the inner city of the imperial city.

Everyone was shocked, this time they did not concentrate on the entrance and exit, but searched the entire inner city of the imperial city on a large scale, and kept busy until night. Finally, someone found traces that might be left by Wang Sheng.

The three major priests rushed over collectively. It was a shallow footprint on the edge of a pool in the Imperial Garden, and there were some traces of dried water around it.

"Where does this pool lead?" Manager Li immediately asked sharply.

"Directly leading to the moat." A guard quickly replied: "But there are three water gates in the middle, and there is a waterway that is several miles long. In addition, there is only one bridge on the waterway, and there are people patrolling on the bridge at any time. There are six waterways along the way. There are guard posts on all the water intake platforms. Yesterday, all the staff on shift asked, but no one was found in the water.”

"Go and check the water gate!" The old eunuch Shen directly grasped the key point and sent someone to investigate.No matter what everyone guesses, if you want to come in, you must destroy the water gate, so you must find out.

The old eunuch Shen's instructions were indeed on the right track, and after a while, someone dived into the water to see the result and reported it.Sure enough, the water gate was broken open, a big opening that could allow people to enter and exit.

The three major priests finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting this result.At least I know how Wang Sheng entered the inner city of the imperial city without anyone noticing.As for how Wang Sheng passed the long waterway without being noticed, that's another matter.Some are good in water, and it is estimated that they can pass through longer waterways than this.

The emperor finally got the report, and he was relieved.Then asked the three major priests: "How to prevent others from entering through this waterway?"

"Several methods." Manager Li is the best at this aspect, and immediately replied: "One is to reinforce the water gate and set up the formation. Once someone touches the formation, immediately warn the police."

"Is there anything else?" The emperor was very anxious and hurriedly asked.

"Turn the water gates into the smallest water pipes, the kind that humans and animals can't pass through." Mr. Li knew that the emperor was anxious, and quickly replied: "In this way, the running water can be connected, and no one can break in. Of course, formations must also be added."

This is a way.The emperor also found it reliable.

"The best thing is to fill up all the waterways without leaving any openings." Director Li immediately said the most once-and-for-all solution.

"What about the water in the palace?" The emperor frowned.It is easy to fill them all to death. The problem is that there must be water in the palace. What if there is no water source?
"Dig a well!" Director Li said decisively: "Your Majesty's drinking water is directly taken from the best spring outside the city every day."

"According to this method, Lao Li will arrange it!" The emperor thought for a while, and finally made the most reassuring decision for him.

Finally, he found out how Wang Sheng came in and filled up the waterway. The emperor finally felt that he could sleep in peace.

However, before he returned to the bedroom, he suddenly realized another problem.At that time, the second prince and the others could use formations to seal off the entire inner city, especially the main hall, which was even more tightly sealed. How did Wang Sheng come in without anyone from Jingdong?

Wang Sheng killed the old priest with three arrows, it is impossible for someone from the second prince's side, and it is even more impossible to collude with the person who controls the formation. Then, how did Wang Sheng break the formation?
The three major priests have more headaches than the emperor, and the formation has been running without interruption at all.Not only in the imperial city, but also in the other courtyard of the emperor, Wang Sheng felt as if he had entered the land of no one in the formation, this was the most speechless.

The emperor can trust Wang Sheng, but the three major priests cannot trust anyone except the emperor.Even the Son of Heaven's own son can conspire against him, so it is quite normal for Wang Sheng to try to harm the Son of Heaven one day.Many things have to be taken precautions.

But even if they wanted to break their heads, they couldn't understand how Wang Sheng walked through the formation.If there is no answer to this question, no matter whether it is the Son of Heaven or the Three Great Priests, they still cannot sleep.

After the major event was settled, the emperor and those important ministers plus the three major offerings did not close their eyes for another day.It wasn't until the empress empress, after all this, ran over to shoo him away, dragged the emperor to the bedroom, and waited for him to lie on the bed, did she stop.

"Forget it! Forget it!" The emperor lay down and waved at the three priests: "Go and rest! It's a big deal and ask Chang Shenghou personally in two days!"

The three priests bowed and agreed, and were about to leave, but the emperor suddenly remembered something, and said to Mr. Li, "Lao Li, remind me tomorrow morning, and the decree is to be named Chang Shenghou as Chang Sheng Gong!"

Everyone was stunned, and the three priests suddenly remembered the promise made by the emperor and the second prince to fight for Wang Sheng when Wang Sheng appeared.At that time, although they were fighting with the old priest, they could still hear the movement around them. Now that the emperor mentioned this matter, everyone could understand it.

With deep doubts and unwillingness, several people who couldn't sleep also lay down and forced themselves to sleep.Finally, after several days and nights of fighting, there is no longer any need to worry about sudden danger. Tiredness struck, and several people slowly fell into a deep sleep.

With the emperor's peaceful sleep, the capital gradually returned to tranquility.The uninformed think that everything is over and that they can sleep well.Those in the know understand that the real bloodbath has only just started, and this is the only way to control the situation, and the real liquidation has not yet begun.

The court officials, I don't know how many people were so frightened that they couldn't sleep, for fear that their usual behavior would be related to the second prince and others.In the entire capital, apart from the ordinary people who don't know anything, there are only two mansions of Wang Sheng left where they can really sleep peacefully.
