"Tell me." After the two of them stood up, Li Er said expressionlessly.
"Here."
Li Chunfeng bowed and began to report the secret report he had received from White Cloud City.
After saying that, he knelt down again to apologize.
"Get up. This matter is not your fault. I can only say that King Jing is too secretive.”
At this point, a trace of regret and regret flashed across Li Er's heart.
He regretted not taking more care of Liu Zi. If he had listened to the advice of the Guanyin maid and not used him as a chess piece.
He had a child who was more outstanding than any other prince.
Unfortunately, because of his own negligence, the son did not recognize his father.
However, this thought only flashed across his mind for a moment.
He, Li Shi Min, was his father, a Supreme Being. As for King Jing Li Lin, he was only a subordinate. What was he trying to do by hiding so much power?
Thinking of this, Li Shiming was furious. At the same time, he was extremely wary of Liu Zi.
"Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty."
Li Chunfeng bowed and stood up.
At this moment, Guest Master Yuan, who was standing at the side, was about to speak.
"Your Majesty, regarding the matter of King Jing, the two senior brothers have discussed it with me, but I feel that this matter concerns the prince and I dare not act rashly.”
Looking at the two people in the hall, Li Shi Min's eyes flashed with killing intent.
However, Li Er was not in the right position.
It had only been a few months since he ascended the throne. If he attacked his own son again, how could the world explain it?
He still wanted to be a wise ruler, not a tyrant or a fatuous ruler.
Therefore, some things could only be done with open schemes. For some people, the path of an assassin could not be used.
Moreover, the incident at White Cloud City had also let him vent his anger.
To the four sacred lands, the world's aristocratic families, and sects.
As a Supreme Martial Artist, how could Li Er not want to suppress and even destroy his mountain gate and mansion?
However, he was a Supreme Martial Artist. If he moved, it would affect the whole body. It would cause chaos in the world, and the Great Tang might very well be destroyed in his hands.
Therefore, although he had already become the most respected person in the world, there were still some things that he had to plan slowly.
This was also the reason why Li Shiming felt regret and regret.
He didn't want to leave behind an unstable factor like King Jing.
However, King Jing's strength and boldness made him feel that perhaps it was a good thing to stay.
There was also the Prince of Yan, Li Yi.
Thinking of this, although Li Er had already broken through to the Divine Treasure Realm and was in the prime of his life, he still felt a headache.
After thinking for a moment, Li Er finally said,"
"It is said that King Jing has several generals under him who are suspected to have entered the Divine Treasure Realm. He even has several legions with great military might?”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Chunfeng replied respectfully.
"Furthermore, he has offended the four sacred lands of White Cloud City, as well as many top aristocratic families and first rank sects?”
"Yes."
"Uncle Yang, have you been to the Qi Public House?”
"…Yes."
"Then let's do it this way. Quickly investigate the matter of Bo Zhou, so that the unrelated Holy Lands, sects, and aristocratic families would have less doubts. In addition, if anyone from the Duke of Qi goes to White Cloud City, try to make things convenient for them.”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Chunfeng bowed down.
"Mm, if there's nothing else, then leave. We'll focus on monitoring White Cloud City. If you have any news, report it immediately. Don't delay. I'll let it go this time, but if there's a next time, I won't let it go easily!”
"Here! We will take our leave!"
After being beaten up, the two of them left the Hall of Political Affairs. They looked at each other and then walked towards the palace gate.
When it was time to part ways, Guest Master Yuan instructed,"We need to investigate the matter of Bo Zhou as soon as possible. If there were no results in a short period of time, they would withdraw the people.”
"The reason why the aristocratic families, sects, and even the sacred lands didn't make a move this time was also because of the Black Knights.”
"We indirectly helped King Jing.”
"Junior Brother, do you think that the incident in Bo Zhou was really done by King Jing?”Li Chunfeng asked.
If it was before, he would definitely not be so suspicious.
However, after the incident in White Cloud City, especially after it was proven that King Jing had several Divine Treasure Realm generals under him, he began to have doubts.
In addition, King Jing had chosen the perfect timing to let the Imperial Censorate restrict the hands of the various Holy Lands, sects, and aristocratic families.
With so many coincidences put together, he couldn't help but overthink.
Beside him, Guest Master Yuan thought for a few breaths and slowly shook his head."Currently, King Jing is also suspicious. However, according to our information, none of King Jing's generals have left Bozhou.”
" Moreover, although General Li Cunxiao, who has never appeared, is also in the Divine Treasure Realm, he is obviously a battle general and is not proficient in assassination.”
"Therefore, we still need to monitor them. However, we should focus on the other Holy Lands, sects, and aristocratic families first.”
"Besides, King Jing is a prince after all.”
"Although Your Majesty intends to destroy it now, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be any changes in the future. Before we completely shed all pretense of cordiality, our Imperial Censorate cannot act rashly.”
"We are only loyal to His Majesty. Other matters such as the fight for the throne have nothing to do with us.”
"Yes, junior brother is right. Senior brother has learned a lesson.”Li Chunfeng thought for a moment, nodded, and cupped his hands towards Honorable Guest Yuan.
"Senior Brother, you should go back early and make the necessary arrangements," said Honorable Guest Master Yuan after returning the greeting.”
"Alright, I will take my leave."
Goodbye, Senior Brother. Be careful on the road."
…….
In the study room of the Duke of Qi's Mansion.
Over a hundred soldiers in thin armor surrounded the study room, not allowing anyone to get within a hundred steps.
In the study room, Zhangsun Wuji, Zhangsun Chong, the High Duke's Public House's manager, and Zhangsun Changfu were all present.
They were actually kept in the dark about what happened in White Cloud City.
If Yang Shuzi had not come to tell them, who knew how long it would have been before they found out.
The Zhangsun Clan was one of the Guanlong Clans. Although it could not compare to the other clans at the forefront, it had been passed down for thousands of years and could be considered to have a deep foundation.
And now, he, Zhangsun Wuji, was the head of the clan.
There were even two dukes in the family.
Under such circumstances, King Jing actually dared to slaughter the station they had set up in White Cloud City. He was simply audacious and did not put his Zhangsun Clan in his eyes at all.
"Father, I don't think we can just let this matter go. Why don't we let the clan guards take action?"
Every aristocratic family of inheritance had their own guards.
His Zhangsun Clan naturally had one as well.
There were more than a thousand clan guards, all of whom were at least in the Tendon Transformation Realm. There were also more than a hundred Xiantian experts, and their commanders were in the Divine Treasure Realm.
Of course, there was more than one Divine Treasure Realm expert in the clan.
If there was only one, then his Zhangsun Clan wouldn't be listed as a Guanlong Clan.
"Clan guards? Do you want the Zhangsun Clan to die?" Zhangsun Wuji glared at his eldest son and shouted in a low voice.
"Old Master, don't be angry. Eldest Young Master only acted like this in a moment of desperation.”Chief Chang Fu advised, and at the same time gave Zhangsun Chong a look.
"Father, forgive me. I didn't think it through.”
"This matter cannot involve the clan.”Zhangsun Wuji said slowly as he pondered.
"Master, this old servant has an idea.”Zhangsun Changfu said.
"Oh?"
"Master, even if it's not convenient for us to take action, it's convenient for someone.”
"You mean…?"
"Master, you are wise. The Black Jail Assassin Organization has been around for thousands of years, and there is no lack of divine treasures experts among them. As long as we pay a price, it should not be a problem for them to assassinate King Jing.”
"... Alright, go and arrange it."
"In addition, I have to see the Crown Prince.”
