Everything Reveals Strange
Was Ye Gucheng injured?
When Zhu Honghuan first heard this news, he also felt that it was very strange.
He didn't know if Ye Gucheng was at the peak of the martial grandmaster realm or the early stage of the Xiantian realm, but he knew that he was an extremely powerful figure. He was so powerful that he could kill his way into the palace with just one sword.
How could such a talent be injured?!
Rumor had it that the remaining two of the four heroes of the Tang Sect were the ones who first discovered where Ye Gucheng was staying and then ambushed him.
Ye Gucheng was not strong enough and was shot in the arm by a poisonous needle. The Tang Sect's poison was the best in the Central Plains, so one of Ye Gucheng's arms was almost crippled after he was poisoned.
Some people even saw him use his sword to dig out a piece of flesh from his arm before he killed the last two of the four heroes of the Tang Sect.!!
[Yes!]
Legend has it that there are noses and eyes.
Zhu Honghuan almost believed it.
After a long silence, Zhu Honghuan looked at Lu Xiaofeng and Yu Huatian and asked,""What about you two?"
In fact, there was a third person in the royal study, and that was Commander Wang Haocang.
However, this kind of brain-racking scene obviously did not need a vulgar martial artist like him. Therefore, it was better for him to quietly be a tool.
Lu Xiaofeng pondered for a moment before replying,""Your Majesty, I feel that this matter is very strange. It's as if there's a layer of fog that prevents people from seeing it clearly. But Ye Gucheng is really injured, I can guarantee that with my life.”
"How can you guarantee that?" Zhu Honghuan asked with a frown.!”
"First of all, the bodies of the two heroes of the Tang Sect have been found. They were indeed killed by Ye Gucheng. Ye Gucheng's famous sword technique, the 'Heavenly Fairy' is extremely sharp and can behead people from over a thousand feet away. There is still a residual sword intent in the bodies of these two people, which constantly erodes their vitality and churns their internal organs into a pile of meat paste. It is obvious that Ye Gucheng attacked in anger. To make Ye Gucheng so angry, these two must have seriously injured him. Otherwise, Ye Gucheng wouldn't be so angry.”Lu Xiaofeng explained.
"This is only your speculation." Zhu Honghuan continued.”
"The famous killer, Ping Yizhi, has been in the capital for some time now. I went to see him before I entered the palace today and he confirmed that he had indeed treated Ye Gucheng's arm last night. However, Ping Yizhi refuses to reveal the key evidence of whether or not Ye Gucheng has recovered.”
This was just a witness.
Zhu Honghuan nodded slightly and asked,"The famous killer Ping Yi? He treated Ye Gucheng yesterday, who did he kill today?!”
Lu Xiaofeng was stunned!
He did not expect Zhu Honghuan's attention to suddenly shift to Ping Yi.
The famous killer doctor Ping Yizhi believed that the heavens had their own laws of life and death. Killing one person and curing another. It was because of this strange behavior that it was famous in the martial arts world.
"This... This was…I don't know." Lu Xiaofeng unconsciously changed his way of addressing himself.
As a famous Jianghu person, although he had an official position, he was used to freedom. Therefore, even when he found Zhu Honghuan, he almost always addressed himself as 'me', not as a lowly official.
Zhu Honghuan would not pursue these details.
He thought for a moment and said,"Immediately arrest Ping Yi for murder. We must find out the mystery of Ye Gucheng's injury."”
"Yes." Lu Xiaofeng quickly cupped his hands and accepted the order.
Yu Huatian finally spoke up." Your Majesty, the summit of the forbidden city is full of strange things. For the safety of Your Majesty's dragon body, I suggest that we immediately strengthen the guards of the palace and ban this battle. We should arrest Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue. We should also report that all the martial artists in the capital are to be expelled from the city.”"If anyone dares to take the opportunity to cause trouble, kill them without mercy…"
"Eunuch Yu, are you going to start a massacre?" Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly said.!”
"For the sake of Your Majesty's dragon body and for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, what's wrong with killing?!”
"Humph! The Great Ming Empire was not only owned by His Majesty alone, but also belonged to all the people of the Great Ming Empire.”
"Lu Xiaofeng, how dare you. How can a subject say such words to deceive the emperor?!”
"This is the truth. Moreover, Ximen Chuixue has been passively accepting the challenge in this battle. What does it have to do with him? Why is he wanted as well?"
"Who knows what role Ximen Chuixue plays in this? To deal with such daring Jianghu people, it was better to kill three thousand people than to let one person go.”
Lu Xiaofeng gritted his teeth in anger!
Although he had always heard that Yu Huatian was a ruthless person, every time he saw him, he was clearly just a young eunuch. It could be seen that Jianghu rumors could not be trusted.
However, after listening to his words today, he realized that this person was really as the rumors said. He was even worse than them.
If Yu Huatian's suggestion was carried out, the capital would be a sea of corpses.
The people of the martial world were originally arrogant and unruly, and everyone had come to the capital to watch the duel between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue.
Now, he had not seen the final battle and was even chased out of the city by the government like a dog.
How could these arrogant Jianghu people tolerate this?!
A conflict with the Imperial Court was inevitable.
However, how could the scattered Jianghu people be a match for the imperial court?!
Not to mention the 90,000 elite troops stationed in the three battalions outside the city, just the Imperial Army, Brocade Guards, East and West Chambers were enough to make these Jianghu people suffer.
Therefore, he looked at Zhu Honghuan with a sorrowful expression.
At this moment, he finally understood the terror of the imperial power.
Now, as long as Zhu Honghuan nodded slightly, hundreds and thousands of heads would fall to the ground.
Wang Haocang, on the other hand, acted as if it had nothing to do with him.
Even though he despised Yu Huatian for his cruelty, he still felt that the Emperor's safety was the most important.
However, Zhu Honghuan was not a tyrant who killed without restraint.
Shaking his head, he rejected Yu Huatian's suggestion. Then, he looked at Lu Xiaofeng and asked,""I know that you and Ximen Chuixue are close friends. If I want to see him, can you do it?!”
Lu Xiaofeng heaved a sigh of relief.
After a moment of silence, he said," Xiaoxi is a true chivalrous man. Countless thugs have died under his sword over the years, but he hates dealing with the government and the imperial court, so I can only give it a try. Besides, Xiaoxi's whereabouts are unpredictable. I might not be able to find him on the night of the full moon.”
Zhu Honghuan didn't comment and said,"Just do your best."”
At this moment, a young eunuch entered the royal study with a bow and whispered to Zhu Honghuan,""Your Majesty, Eunuch Wei is waiting outside.”
Wei Zongxian?
This old dog isn't on duty at the ceremony supervisor, so why is he looking for me?!
"You can leave first. Xiao Tian, let Wei Zongxian in.”Zhu Honghuan instructed.
