Of course, the reality was different. No matter how flawed Yueming Empire was, he couldn’t bring it down instantly. He could only think about it.
Ming Fucheng was still in charge of the Yueming Military.
Only Ming Fucheng and the Yueming Emperor knew about Qian Jiyun. The Yueming Emperor was wary of involving a third party, so he sent Ming Fucheng instead.
In the most luxurious tent within the military, a man in black stood beside Ming Fucheng and reminded him coldly, ‘Your Highness, today is the third day of the month.”
Ming Fucheng looked up and glanced at him.
He wanted to take a deep breath and show his dissatisfaction on his face, but he did not dare.
This person was sent by the Yueming Emperor for an obvious reason—the Yueming Emperor did not trust him and sent someone to keep an eye on him.
The Yueming Emperor would know immediately if anything happened here.
Moreover, this person had been watching him eat, drink, use the restroom, and sleep. He had practically stayed by his side.
In order to prevent him from escaping, the Yueming Emperor even sent two people to work in two shifts. One of them would keep an eye on him while the other would rest.
This had been driving him crazy for the past few months.
However, he had no choice. He could only endure being watched and refrain from expressing his dissatisfaction with the Yueming Emperor.
“I understand. I’ll write a memorial to the throne now.”
It was truly detestable. Why was he forced into this situation? He had to write to the Yueming Emperor on the third, thirteenth, and twenty-third of each month.
However, he did not even see Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue. How was he supposed to write a memorial to the throne?
Was he supposed to discuss the scenery at the entrance of Huayan Peak with the Yueming Emperor? He was going crazy!
“You may leave. There’s no need to stand guard here.”
The man did not even look at Ming Fucheng as he replied coldly, “I am under His Majesty’s orders to protect Your Highness and cannot leave Your Highness’s side for a single second. Otherwise, I’ll die if anything happens to you.”
Ming Fucheng was shocked. Was he trying to anger him to death?
However, he knew that his father, the Yueming Emperor, was the one who instructed him to speak like this.
In short, he could not escape from the two men sent by the Yueming Emperor. Otherwise, they would have the right to execute him.
He was even angrier at the thought of this. His father had absolutely no trust in him.
Of course, he could understand. If it were him, he would not trust anyone but himself.
However, he did not want the Yueming Emperor to be on guard against him like a thief. It was fine now. Qian Jiyun and the others were not here yet. What would he do if they came and kept an eye on him?
“Alright, you can continue following me.”
He had no other choice. If this person wanted to follow him, could he stop him by knocking him out?
Most importantly, he could not knock him out. His cultivation level was lower than his. What could he do? He was in despair!
“Your Highness, where are you going? Outside—”
The man in black followed Ming Fucheng as he stood up and was about to leave the tent.
He tried to say that he hadn’t finished writing the memorial to the throne but was interrupted by the roars of demonic beasts outside. Moreover, there were
many of them..
