Yang Guang could not help but feel a chill in his heart. In this world, the martial arts realms were divided into ten levels, namely, Martial Apprentice, Martial Warrior, Martial Master, Martial Spirit, Martial King, Martial Emperor, Martial Grandmaster, Martial Honor, Martial Saint, and Martial God.
Martial arts manuals were divided into seven levels: Yellow, Mysterious, Earth, Heaven, King, Emperor, and Emperor. Each level was further divided into four levels: low-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Art that Yang Guang had obtained previously was a top-grade heaven-tier body-tempering technique. With the fame of [Ice Force], he estimated that it was at least a middle-grade King-level inner force mental cultivation method.
Although the strength of the top martial artists of the Great Sui Dynasty was very terrifying, those experts rarely roamed the martial world. Usually, once they reached the Martial Master or Warrior Spirit realm, they could start a sect and become an overlord. As for the cultivation of Martial King Realm, even if he was placed in the Six Paths of the Dark Sect, he could be an elder!
In his early years, Yang Guang was also a fierce general who went on expeditions everywhere. He was a famous expert in the martial world and had broken through to the Ninth Level Warrior Spirit Realm five years ago. Unfortunately, he had indulged himself in alcohol and sex and abandoned his cultivation. Not only did he not make any progress, but his cultivation had also plummeted. Now, he was only at the Third Level Master Realm.
Although Yang Guang was very envious of the Yuwen family's ultimate technique, the Ice Mystic Force, he knew that Yuwen Huaji would never give it to him, so he didn't ask for a snub. Instead, he asked,""May I know why my beloved minister has come to see me in the middle of the night?”
Yuwen Huaji cupped his hands and said," The tribute delegation from Koryo has already entered Jiangdu. They have been strictly guarded by my personal guards. I have also looked through all the tributes. There are absolutely no problems."”
"Very good. I can rest assured that my beloved minister will handle this matter.”
" Also," Yuwen Huaji said again," the ambassador of the envoy group has also brought a group of Korean dancers. They hope that they will be able to dance and cheer up His Majesty tomorrow."”
Yang Guang had a flash of inspiration and quickly asked,"A Korean dancer? What does the leader look like?"
As expected of a fatuous ruler! Yuwen Huaji snorted disdainfully in his heart and replied,""Those Korean dancers were all wearing veils, and I didn't check them because of etiquette. However, the leading dancer was tall and slender, with a voluptuous figure and a faint otherworldly aura. She should be a top-notch beauty.”
"It really is her!"
Hearing Yuwen Huaji's words, Yang Guang was certain that the leading dancer must be the eldest disciple of the Goryeo Sword Master Fu Cailin, Fu Junhao.
"The enemy's first wave of attack has arrived so quickly? F * ck, I'm not ready yet!”
Yang Guang felt a chill run down his spine. Although Fu Junhao failed to assassinate Yang Guang twice in the original novel, there was no guarantee that he would still be so lucky in this life.
Fu Junhao was the disciple of one of the three great grandmasters in the world. Even though Fu Cailin had never paid much attention to his disciple, and Fu Junhao was not as talented as Shi Feixuan and Fu Junhao, he was still the disciple of a great master.?Coupled with the profundity of the Nine Mysteries Technique and the Bright Sword Art, he was only slightly inferior to Yuwen Huaji.
How could he not be frightened by such an expert who had schemed to assassinate him?
"Your Majesty? How should I reply to the Korean diplomatic mission?”
"Oh, let them prepare first. When the time comes, we will inform them of the specific arrangements.”
Yang Guang knew very well that Fu Junhao was determined to kill him. Even if he rejected the dance performance of the Korean diplomatic mission, she would definitely find another way to enter the palace to assassinate him. At that time, it would be even more disadvantageous for the enemy to be in the dark and for him to be in the light. It would be better to take the initiative in his own hands.
Yuwen Huaji nodded and cupped his hands.""Then I will go down and deal with it.”
As soon as Yuwen Huaji left, Cao A'bao, oh no, Cao Zhengchun walked in and said respectfully,""Guanglu Grand Official Yu Shiji and Imperial Censor Fei Yun are outside the palace seeking an audience.”
Hearing these two names, Yang Guang immediately frowned. Almost every fatuous ruler had a few crafty officials behind them. For example, King Zhou of Shang had Fei Zhong You Hun beside him, Qin II had Zhao Gao beside him, and Song Gaozong had Qin Hui beside him. He also had two people beside him, Yu Shiji and Fei Yun.
The difference was that Yu Shiji and Fei Yun were quite talented, but Emperor Yang himself was too dissolute, so they had no choice but to go with the flow. Especially Yu Shiji, who was already famous in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. His younger brother, Yu Shinan, was the founding hero of the Li Tang Dynasty, and his portrait was hung high in the Lingyan Pavilion.
"Let them in."
Yang Guang said with a gloomy expression. According to the memories in his mind, these two guys were looking for him for nothing good.
After a while, Yu Shiji and Fei Yun walked in side by side. Both of them looked to be in their thirties. They usually lived like royalty and looked quite authoritative.
"I, Yu Shiji and Fei Yun, pay my respects to Your Majesty.”
"No need to be polite. It's so late. What's the matter?”
Yu Shiji raised his head and observed Yang Guang's expression before saying carefully,"Your Majesty, do you still remember the woman who was sent to the palace today? That... there was a misunderstanding. The people below had made a mistake. That woman was... was the new concubine of the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Lord Zhang Lian.”
Yang Guang suddenly flew into a rage and slammed the table,""So it was the two of you who did this!”
Yu Shiji and Fei Yun saw that Yang Guang was angry and immediately knelt on the ground again, crying,""Please forgive me, Your Majesty. It was only because Miss Huang had just arrived today that we mixed up the bridal sedan and picked up the wrong person.”
Yang Guang understood in his heart that these two people wanted to snatch the bride of an ordinary family. In the end, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhang Lian, also happened to be getting married today, so they were mixed up all of a sudden. Otherwise, even if the two of them had the guts, they would not dare to snatch the woman of a third-grade official on the street.
"In that case, Huang Yuling hasn't married yet?”
Only then did Yang Guang remember that Huang Yuling's muddy canal was still stained with blood.
"Yes, yes."
Yang Guang was delighted and said coldly,"Then how should we resolve this now?”
"This…"
Yu Shiji and Fei Yun looked at each other. Fei Yun said carefully,""That Lord Zhang Lian privately looked for us and promised that as long as we send Miss Huang back unharmed, he can pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise…"
"Or what?"
"Otherwise, he will announce to the whole world the crimes of His Majesty…the crimes of His Majesty.”
"How dare you!"
Yang Guang slammed the table again, his heart full of helplessness. He had already slept, how could he send her back unscathed? Besides, even if he didn't sleep with her, he couldn't bear to give a top-notch beauty like Huang Yuling to someone else for free.
When Yu Shiji and Fei Yun saw Yang Guang's reaction, they immediately understood that Yang Guang must have slept with him. This way, the only hope of reconciliation was gone.
A cold light flashed in Yu Shiji's eyes. He raised his head and said,"Your Majesty, as the old saying goes, there is no land under the heavens but the land of the king. Zhang Lian's subordinates offended the emperor and threatened the emperor. He really deserved ten thousand deaths. I have already written down ten counts of Zhang Lian's crimes overnight, and all of them can be beheaded. Your Majesty, please allow me to immediately lead my men to search Zhang Lian's residence!”
The wicked first complained, fabricated charges, extorted confessions by torture, and killed people to silence them. These were the specialties of treacherous officials. Although Yu Shiji was not a wicked person, he did not hesitate to do some evil things in order to protect his position.
Yang Guang's heart trembled when he heard Yu Shiji's words. He reevaluated this person and knew that this was the only way at the moment. He nodded and said,"Yu Shiji, listen to my orders. I order you to immediately lead people to search the residence of the Minister of Revenue, Zhang Lian.”
"This lowly subject receives the decree!"
"Ding, the host listened to slanderous words, did not repent, and maliciously framed a loyal and upright person. The score of fatuous is B. Reward: 2000 gold coins and a middle-grade lottery card!”
Being a fatuous ruler was so f * cking awesome!
