"I didn't expect that the third child would enter the court so easily. It was a miscalculation!"
The sixth prince lost his former grace and ignored the etiquette and directly addressed him as "the third child".
Dar: "I thought that even if we were to enter, we would still need some twists and turns, but I didn't expect it to be so smooth sailing. It seems that His Highness the Sixth Prince has fallen out of favor!"
"The prince didn't even try to stop him. It must be that they reached some kind of agreement. Now with the Destiny Wushuang Society, the prince has won the hearts of a lot of students. If this continues, we won't be able to fight back in the end!"
"Now the two of them have formed a confrontational situation in the court. More and more courtiers will move closer to them. This is really not good for His Highness the Sixth Prince. Recently, I have received some news that as long as I confirm it more, I can do the Sixth Prince a big favor. !" Dar said sinisterly.
"Oh? What is so important?"
"The Japanese army captured some bandits a few days ago, and they should be executed. In order to survive, these people told me about an opportunity to buy and sell news!"
"Business news? Is it that mysterious organization in the world?"
"That's right! It's the organization that is rumored to know everything!"
"So what? Even if there is some secret, so what? The prince is now covering the sky with one hand, and we don't even have a chance to talk. Once the big thing is over, all our previous efforts will be wasted!"
"Then it depends on what the secret is. Among the seven departments, except for the previous Chu Wen's secret, each of the other six departments has some ulterior secrets. If these things are told to the world, don't tell them. If we cannot gain a foothold within the dynasty, I am afraid that we will be hunted down by Jianghu, and our lives will be at risk!"
"The six main mansions?? They all have shameful places??"
"That's right, the six departments have changed over the years, and basically all have problems. Except for Chu Wen, who has been the head of the Criminal Department for thirty years, no one has been the head of the Criminal Department for more than ten years. They are either corrupt and derelict in their duties, or they secretly pay for murders. , every one of these secrets will make you lose your head!"
"If Your Highness has mastered these secrets, why worry about the heads of the palace not obeying your orders? At that time, you can use their mouths to talk about and handle anything. It is no different from the court. The third prince is just the head of the punishment department. Mansion, we are afraid of them failing to control the six divisions!" Yinlou said with a smile.
"Okay, send a few attendants to inquire immediately. If this matter is true, I will mark the two of you with great merit. If you ascend the throne and become emperor in the future, you will be the new four kings!"
Yinlou and Daer were overjoyed when they heard this. Ever since they followed the Sixth Prince, they had never received a promise. Although they would inevitably be promoted to a higher position in the future, they were always a little uneasy. Now that the big stone in their chests has finally fallen to the ground, how could they not be happy? !
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your cultivation!"
The realm of martial arts is indescribable, unlike any other craftsmanship. There are ready-made examples to learn from to whatever level you can achieve.
There are thousands of roads in life, and the road of learning martial arts is the most difficult, and no one can accompany you on this road. There will be countless difficulties and obstacles on this road, and each of them may become a reason for you to give up.
As the path of martial arts goes deeper, you can faintly feel the will of God. Going with the will of heaven or going against it will become a fork in the road. Every martial artist has to make a choice. From now on, there is no turning back on this road. , we can only keep going forward.
Long Yu was drinking alone in Wangchang's upstairs. He had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't vent them. He carefully looked at the golden cup in his hand, not knowing whether he should put it down or keep holding it.
From ancient times to the present, the power of emperors has been unstoppable.
Everyone who becomes an emperor will change, become fearful, and disown all relatives. The supreme power can blind people's hearts, make people forget themselves, and embark on a path of no return.
Long Yu asked himself in his heart: "Do you regret embarking on this path of a dynasty's subject? If you were still a martial artist, would you have become a virtual warrior now? Can you stay away from these troubles and be free and easy? What's the matter? Is it right or wrong?”
Picking it up and putting it down, the wine glass went back and forth, just so hesitant.
A few days ago, Left Prime Minister Yu Cheng and Right Prime Minister Liang Chen came to the mansion and met with Long Yu in private.
Long Yu knew the news of the two resignations in advance, and didn't understand why the two had to leave Wushuang City in a hurry, and even asked Long Yu to take away everyone in the house when they came.
The two of them have admired Long Yu's character for many years. First, he has a heroic temperament, and second, he is upright and never does despicable things, so he takes risks.
On the one hand, he rejected Long Yu's idea of staying, and on the other hand, he warned Long Yu to be careful about the emperor, and then the two of them left in a hurry.
At first, Long Yu was still lamenting that the dynasty had lost two good ministers who could govern the country, and felt regretful. Later, he thought about it. They had done nothing wrong. There was no need for them to beg for mercy and stay, and there was no need to come here to show off. It seemed that they were just to warn themselves to be careful about the emperor.
emperor? What should I be careful about with my sworn brother? What's more, he is still seriously ill and bedridden. Does the prince want to do harm to himself?
Long Yu has confidence in his brother, but he has no friendship with the princes. Could it be that the matter of seizing the heir has already involved him?
If so! How to do it? Do nothing and wait for others to condemn you? I don't care about it. I don't care about life and death for a lifetime of swords and swords. But what about my wife and children?
If you do anything, how can you be worthy of your royal brother Liu Cheng!
Long Yu was caught in a dilemma in life and didn't know what to do, so she could only drink to relieve her sorrow.
It’s funny to say that no matter how strong a person is, when they encounter difficult things, they will always want to get drunk to get over it. Can you really forget everything when you are drunk?
………………
In a dilapidated old house in Nancheng Mansion, a frail old man was struggling to cook sweet potato porridge. The walls were full of broken cracks and could no longer even protect him from the cold wind.
The old man didn't care and slowly added firewood. It was simply the season when the weather was warm and the flowers were blooming, and the temperature outside was acceptable. Otherwise, judging from the old man's body, he might not even be able to survive the night.
A pair of wrinkled hands tremblingly picked up the porcelain bowl on the table, poured the freshly cooked porridge into it, and sucked the hot porridge into his mouth while blowing air through his mouth.
After a few sips, the old man seemed to be very happy and said: "The porridge here is still delicious and comfortable!"
Suddenly a gust of cold wind hit, "Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!" A very subtle sound came from the roof.
It is already May day, and there is still a cold wind blowing, which is really strange.
"Now that we're here, why bother hiding? Do we still have to worry about a waning old man?"
Chu Wen said disdainfully, although his body is old, his heart is very clear.
"Click!" Three people jumped down from the roof, and two more people came over from a distance!
"Sir, I have been under surveillance for many days, and this old man has never had contact with anyone or the outside world!"
Five people dressed all in black walked in, their faces covered by black hoods, only their eyes exposed.
The leading man in black waved his hand, and the other three stood behind him.
"Lord Chu is really smart. He just resigned from his position and left Wushuang City. Did he leave in a hurry?"
"Hmph, you lackeys won't end well!" Chu Wen cursed.
The man in black was not angry and said: "Master Chu, you are a smart man and you should know what to do. Where did your son and daughter go??"
"Hahahahaha!!!" Chu Wen laughed indulgently: "A smart man like Liu Cheng actually has idiots like you, are you farting!"
"Bold enough to call the Emperor by his first name!" said a man in black beside him.
The leading man in black was sweating coldly and glared at the person who spoke. The person also knew that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly shut up and backed away!
"You don't have to hide it. I can naturally guess that Liu Cheng did all this. I'm afraid the prince doesn't have the courage!"
"Brother Zhao, don't worry, he won't survive today. This secret can't be leaked!"
The leading man in black nodded and smiled sinisterly: "Master Chu, let me show you something!"
Then two black cloths wrapped in things were thrown from behind and fell to the ground, revealing two human heads with dried blood!
Chu Wen took a closer look and felt sad. It turned out to be his two sons, Chu Jiang and Chu Han!
"Master Chu, you are a smart man. You know who is the biggest threat to us. As long as you tell us the whereabouts of your other son and daughter, we can keep you alive to take care of yourself. How about that?"
"You are now so old that you are no longer a threat to us! We can let you live!" the man in black next to him added.
"My son, it was me who harmed you!" Chu Wen was heartbroken and cried bitterly.
How painful it is for an old man to see his own flesh and blood die so tragically in front of him!
A life of hard work has led to such an end. Although Chu Wen had expected this day, when his son's head fell in front of him, he still felt unbearable pain in his heart. They said that emperors are ruthless. Chu Wen felt it deeply at this moment, and For the first time, he felt hatred in his heart, extremely heavy hatred, and at the same time he regretted his decision to join the court as an official.
"How are you thinking about it? Master Chu!"
The man in black is still aggressive, hoping that Chu Wen will lose his head and tell him the whereabouts of Chu Fei and Chu Yin!
Unfortunately, in fact, although Chu Wen was grieving, he still knew in his heart that if his two sons died, his family would probably not survive, including his grandson. The good news is that Chu Fei and Chu Yin finally escaped this disaster. It can be considered the greatest luck. I haven't found it for so many days. I must have entered that place and there will be no more danger in the future.
A great blessing in misfortune, Chu Wen said with a tearful smile: "Please tell Liu Cheng that I will watch the collapse of the Qi Dynasty after I die, and I am waiting for you to accompany me on this road to hell!"
The man in black was furious, knowing that it was impossible, so he raised his head. A man in black behind him pulled out a very thin diamond wire from his cuff, flicked it casually, and strangled Chu Wen's neck. Chu Wen There was no way to dodge, and Chu Wen's head was cut off with a strong force.
Blood was spread all over the floor, and the three heads rolled together, like a hell on earth.
There was nothing strange about the five people present. The three men in black behind them set fire to the broken house, and everything was reduced to ashes.
"Brother Zhao doesn't find these two people. How can we communicate with each other when we go back?"
"It's okay, even if two small fish escape, they won't be able to make any waves!"
The figures of the five men in black disappeared into the flames.
