“Alright,” he said. Xiao ran smiled.
The light went out, and everything was said without words.
The capital that had just calmed down, with Emperor Huiwen’s test on demons and criminals, the undercurrent was surging, and it once again entered a tense moment.
He wanted to hide the news, but he couldn’t.
As time passed, the news spread like wildfire. It even overshadowed the matter of Xiao ran revealing his righteousness and going to the Imperial Palace with the palace Lords of the four great academies to abdicate.
The capital was huge.
Even during the day, the nether guard, the five departments, the five city defense Departments, and the bailiffs had joined forces to search for the evil God’s traces.
During this period of time, some demons and criminals who did not know better were caught during the intensive search.
However, there were still some demons hiding. They took the opportunity to hide.
He had thought that the matter was over and he could relax and not hide in fear.
Who knew that Emperor Hui Wen would actually do this again.
Each and every one of them was itching with hatred in their hearts. They wished they could eat Emperor Hui Wen’s flesh and drink his blood, but the facts were in front of them, and their cultivation was not enough.
They couldn’t beat him, couldn’t scold him, and they were in other people’s territory, so they could only continue to nest.
Some clever demons and criminals tried to escape from the capital city.
However, the formation that sealed off the capital was still open.
As soon as they went over, they were captured by the experts of the Imperial court.
This time, he had completely given up.
Each and every one of them relied on their own abilities to dig three feet deep into the ground and hide themselves well, afraid that they would be caught by these princes and become the credit for their promotion to Crown Prince.
The Eight Immortals crossing the sea each displayed their magical powers.
It was close at hand.
It was impossible for these princes to ignore the demons in the capital. They would capture them all in one fell swoop and then inquire about the demons in other places.
For a moment.
The forces behind them began to move.
When it came to the position of Crown Prince, all the princes who decided to fight for it went all out without holding back. They used all the power they could use.
The results were also astonishing, far more than the number of demons and criminals caught by the nether guard and the five major departments during the day.
It wasn’t that the netherworld guards and the five departments weren’t good enough, but that the people behind the princes were too desperate.
The forces were complicated and woven together like a huge net.
Driven by huge interests, the power that erupted was beyond imagination.
This scene.
Even Emperor Hui Wen didn’t expect that his random question would have such a huge effect.
As eunuch MA reported the power the princes had used, he became more and more shocked.
Among them, some people and some forces were actually neutral.
He didn’t expect them to have hidden so deeply that they had been bribed long ago.
Some of them were leaders of key departments.
It could be said that …
Half of the power in the capital was in the hands of the princes.
In the Imperial study.
Emperor Huiwen was expressionless. He tapped his index finger on the table, making a “Dong Dong” sound as he thought about the matter eunuch MA had just reported.
If the Civil officials were like this, what about the military and the five law-enforcement departments? Also, had the nether guard and nether prison been infiltrated by them?
He thought of the bad side.
If the princes joined forces and attacked him while he was unprepared, he would be pulled down from his horse and completely lose the throne. His end would be very miserable. He would be imprisoned or given a cup of poisoned wine.
His cold gaze swept across the Imperial Palace, and an even more daring thought appeared in his mind.
“Have they also infiltrated the palace? How many of them are actually their people?”
Thinking of this …
Emperor Hui Wen was no longer calm. He couldn’t sit still and was also anxious.
No matter what.
This time, he was going to get to the bottom of the palace, the Army, and other important departments.
If he found out that they were the Prince’s men, he could use this plan to get rid of them all.
“Close the door.” Emperor Huiwen ordered.
“It’s Your Majesty.” Eunuch MA closed the palace door.
The first thing he said scared eunuch MA and eunuch Wen so much that they knelt on the ground.
“I asked you to control the nether guard. Are there any of the princes” people in there?”
Plop!
The two of them knelt on the ground with their heads lowered. They were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat.
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty,” eunuch MA said hurriedly,”the higher-ups of the nether guard have definitely not been infiltrated.”
“Have the middle and lower levels been infiltrated?”
there should be some. They’re all on the list of suspects. We didn’t touch them before because, first, we didn’t have His Majesty’s order. Second, we didn’t want to alert them and make them suspect that this was his Majesty’s order. It’s inevitable that they’ll do something desperate. MA Gonggong explained.
“As long as Your Majesty gives the order, this old servant will be able to find and eliminate them all in an instant.”
“How many people in the palace have been bribed by them?” Emperor Hui Wen asked again.
“This old servant does not know! Without His Majesty’s order, the nether guard will not dare to act rashly.”
have someone you can trust investigate. The palace, the five departments, and the Army, each and every one of them. Investigate seriously and don’t alert anyone. Find out who they are and record them down. Wait for my orders. Emperor Huiwen ordered.
“It’s Your Majesty!” MA Gonggong replied respectfully.
The two of them knew in their hearts that following Emperor Huiwen’s decree, there would be a bloody purge after the plan was over.
At that time.
Anyone who appeared on the list would not be able to escape.
Even these princes would probably end up in a very miserable state. Being locked up in the Imperial Clan Court would be a light punishment.
“How is Shen Yulu’s recovery?” Emperor Huiwen spoke again.
“Very heavy! I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to recover in a short time.” MA Gonggong replied.
“Bring her here.”
“It’s Your Majesty!” Eunuch MA went down to pass down the order.
Very quickly.
Shen Yulu was carried in and placed on the ground before leaving.
“Your Majesty! Please forgive this Minister for being injured to this extent, so I am unable to get up and bow to you.” Shen Yulu said weakly as she lay on the stretcher.
“Your God clan only has this many people? There are other clansmen?” Emperor Hui Wen asked.
He took the teacup from eunuch MA, held the lid, and casually poured the tea.
Shen Yulu was silent.
He thought about the hidden meaning in his words.
However, she had been recuperating in the palace recently and had no subordinates to use. She knew very little information and without any information as a basis for speculation, no matter how she thought, she could not guess the purpose of Emperor Huiwen’s question.
After a while.
“Yes!” He said.
No matter what Emperor Hui Wen was planning, it seemed that he needed and needed him. He could make use of him to stabilize his power and let the gods race stand at the top of the great Zhou Dynasty again.
other than the Qiong Qi tribe, we still have a hidden trump card. This is the last secret of our gods race. Its power is no less than the Qiong Qi tribe.
“Is that so?” Emperor Hui Wen laughed mockingly.
It would have been better if she had not said these words. Since she had said it, she could even control the Qiong Qi tribe and even control another powerful force. They were not as small as the Qiong Qi tribe. Who knew if they had other tricks up their sleeves?
He came to a conclusion.
The God race could be used, but not all of them.
He wanted to gain more power at all costs. This was a double-edged sword. If used well, it could bring him great benefits and hurt his enemies.
If he was not careful, he would be beyond redemption and hurt himself instead.
you’ve disappointed me greatly with third brother’s matter. On account of your previous contributions, I can let bygones be bygones. I’ll also use the Supreme sacred medicine and the hundred-thousand-year-old heart of the spiritual tree to heal your injuries. Emperor Hui Wen said.
“Your Majesty’s great kindness, this subject will remember it in my heart! Please rest assured, Your Majesty. As soon as I recover from my injuries, I will immediately send a letter to them and ask them to come over. When the time comes, we’ll listen to Your Majesty’s orders and eliminate some demons and ghosts to return peace to the capital.” Shen Yulu’s beautiful eyes brightened and she quickly expressed.
“Don’t let me down again!” Emperor Hui Wen reminded.
“Definitely!” Shen Yulu promised.
“Go and get the one-hundred-thousand-year-old heart of the Spirit Tree.” Emperor Huiwen ordered.
Eunuch MA sighed in his heart. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t. He couldn’t change Emperor Huiwen’s decision.
Even if the one-hundred-thousand-year-old heart of the Spirit Tree was heaven-defying, he had already decided to give it to her. As a servant, he could only helplessly do as he was told.
He took a glance at Shen Yulu and thought, ” the Supreme healing medicine was actually used on a piece of trash.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” He replied respectfully.
He turned around and left to retrieve the heart of the one-hundred-thousand-year-old spiritual tree.
