Chapter 47 The Changed Fate
The girl quickly recovered from her surprise, carefully looked around, and said to the monster who had saved her, "Let's go quickly. With such a commotion, someone is bound to come."
She was just an ordinary woman chosen by Lady Mingzhu to enter the palace, and she didn't quite understand how absurd it was to freeze Lady Mingzhu in place and then hang her up in the sky.
The monster replied, "It's here." Then, the girl saw the monster fly into the sky from the rooftop, followed by a voice that echoed throughout the palace.
"From now on, I will guarantee the personal safety of all those who have been oppressed and harmed in the Han royal palace, and no one will harm you again."
Han Wang An, who was enjoying being fed by Consort Hu in her palace, heard this sound. His smiling face changed, and he was about to order the guards outside the door to come in when his body was suddenly grabbed by something invisible.
To the astonishment of Consort Hu, King Han An left the palace, crashed through the roof of his bedchamber, and was hoisted into the sky.
Hu Meiren quickly shouted, "Help! There's an assassin! The King has been... has been captured and taken to the sky!"
While frantically shouting for help, Consort Hu observed the sky and saw more and more people rising from the ground and being hung in the air. Terrified, she quickly found a place to hide in her palace and only peeked out.
Wait, isn't that Madam Mingzhu?
Was she also hung up in the sky?
Hu Meiren noticed a monster floating in the air, which must have been the monster that had hung the King and Lady Mingzhu in the sky.
The King and Lady Mingzhu were both hung up in the sky. Will she be hung up there too?
As Consort Hu was lost in thought, the same voice that had rang out before King Han An was hung in the sky came again:
"Attention everyone: It is strictly forbidden to take this opportunity to vandalize, loot, burn, intentionally harm others, or attempt to attack me. Violators will be punished."
It was the monster in the sky speaking, but the palace guards wouldn't listen to a monster.
All they knew was that the king had been captured by a monster and taken to the sky, and they needed to rescue him.
A large number of royal guards gathered in formation and hurled spears and arrows at the monster in the air from hundreds of meters away.
The spears were thrown quickly and accurately, and this was without the use of a spear-throwing device; it was all done by hand with great strength. Such physical abilities are far beyond those of ordinary earthlings.
However, the spears and arrows were destroyed in mid-air.
The royal guards, known as the most elite in Korea, were powerless against a monster. And no one knew what the monster did, but the palace guards fell one after another.
This commotion caused chaos in the palace. Some tried to take advantage of the situation to commit murder, while others tried to plunder. However, before they could even make a move, they were hoisted into the air.
These people were better off than the mute King Han An and Lady Mingzhu; at least they could beg the monster for mercy.
"My Lord God, please release me! I was just confused for a moment and dare not disobey your command."
"My Lord God, please release me. I will serve you every day from now on."
To these pleas for mercy, the monster said, "I am not a god. I am merely an ordinary Trisolaran citizen sent by the Supreme Ruler to liberate you. You have made mistakes and must be punished. Once the punishment is over, you will be released. There is no need to beg for mercy."
Inside the Korean royal palace, those who harbored ulterior motives suppressed their thoughts upon witnessing this scene and remained obediently in their posts.
Princess Honglian in the palace was startled by the commotion outside.
Upon leaving the palace, Princess Honglian saw her father being hoisted into the sky by a monster. She angrily shouted, "You monster! Put my father down right now! If you release him, I might beg him to spare your life!"
"Object scan, identity confirmed. Princess Honglian has not committed any crimes and is not a target to be captured."
Seeing that the monster claiming to be a "Citizen of the Trisolarans" ignored her, Princess Honglian was furious and jumped up and down below, but there was nothing she could do.
At this moment, Han Fei, who had rushed back to Xinzheng from Xiaoshengxianzhuang, entered the palace. When he saw the person hanging in the sky above the palace, his eyes widened. He was still a step too late.
The Trisolarans are actually going to use this method to deal with the princes and nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, capturing them and hanging them in the sky. What will happen next...?
With Han Fei's intelligence, he quickly came up with a solution.
The Trisolarans intend to hold a grand trial, exposing the cruelty and wickedness of the princes and nobles to the public.
But now is not the time to rescue his father, crown prince, and fourth brother who are hanging in the sky; he must find his sister, Honglian, first.
Although the king, the crown prince, and many beautiful wives were hoisted to the sky by the Trisolarans, the palace was not in chaos at all; the Trisolarans' terrifying abilities had kept the palace in check.
"Red Lotus, Red Lotus, where are you?"
Han Fei ran towards Princess Honglian's palace, searching for his dearest sister.
In front of the palace, Han Fei found Honglian, who was cursing the Trisolarans in the sky, but the Trisolarans ignored her completely.
Seeing that Honglian was safe and sound and hadn't been hung in the sky to be dried meat, Han Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
Princess Honglian was also pleasantly surprised to see him: "Ninth Brother? Why are you back? Weren't you studying at Little Sage Village?"
After saying all this in one breath, Princess Honglian put one hand on her hip and pointed to the sky with the other: "Ninth Brother, this monster from who-knows-where has taken Father and my Crown Prince to the sky!"
Han Fei said, "I know their origins. I have seen their relatives at Xiaoshengxianzhuang."
Han Fei stepped forward and said, "I have seen Lord Cheng Yuan. May I ask if you could put them down?"
The monster said, "No. This is an order personally issued by His Excellency the Supreme Ruler: all princes and nobles who have committed crimes, regardless of their status, must be punished. There are countless people who have been oppressed and harmed by King Han An. It would be unfair to them if they were let go."
Upon hearing this, Han Fei knew that his father and brothers, who had been suspended in the sky, were doomed unless he found a way to defeat the Trisolarans.
Can they defeat the Trisolarans?
Even if the teacher intervened, it would be impossible to defeat them.
The fact that they could suspend so many people in the air at the same time already proves the Trisolarans' strength, and similar scenes have occurred in other places in Xinzheng and in the other six countries.
In Xinzheng City, at Zilan Pavilion, Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang stood on a pavilion, looking at the person hanging in the sky.
Wei Zhuang identified some of the people among them: "Left Sima Liu Yi, Lord Longquan, Lord Anping... It's quite a lively scene."
Zi Nu said, "The monsters that call themselves 'Citizens of the Three-Body Problem' are mostly hanging up princes and ministers. They seem to be purging the princes and ministers. Don't do anything rash."
Wei Zhuang held a sword to his chest and said, "In your eyes, am I the kind of impulsive person?"
"The Three-Body Citizen, huh? It's just some people playing tricks behind the scenes. This game in South Korea is getting more and more interesting!"
Also in Xinzheng, in a mysterious dungeon, Chi Mei Long She Tianze had just stepped out of the specially made cell that imprisoned him when a voice came: "Chi Mei Long She Tianze, you have been marked as a high-priority target, and we will monitor your behavior indefinitely."
"If you are found to have harmed innocent people, you will be immediately detained. We hope you cherish your freedom and behave well."
Tianze seemed not to hear these words and walked out of the dungeon with a cold face.
After leaving the dungeon, Tianze looked up at the sky, and his expression immediately became tense.
He had been imprisoned for too long and was hallucinating. Why were there so many people hanging in the sky?
Tianze seemed to have thought of something, and he channeled his inner strength, heading towards the Han King's Palace.
