The news of the annihilation of the Shifting Flower Palace spread to the Seven Hero Town as if it had wings.
"The latest news is that the Shifting Flower Palace was surrounded by tens of thousands of cavalry last night. The entire Shifting Flower Palace was flattened overnight!”
"Tens of thousands of cavalry? It seems like the imperial court is serious. Do you know where the cavalry came from?”
"The Elegant Jade Valley, where the Shifting Flower Palace is located, is the closest to Northern Frontier City. There were a total of 100,000 cavalry in Northern Frontier City. It should have been done by the King of Northern Frontier.”
"Northern Frontier King? Wasn't this Northern Frontier King just a good-for-nothing? He can mobilize the cavalry of the Northern Borderline?"
"I also heard that the Northern Frontier King only has a title and no real power. The military power is in the hands of the general, not the Northern Frontier King!”
"Hehe, you guys don't know about this, right? I think this is most likely done by the King of Northern Frontier!”
"Why do you say that?"
"Some time ago, the Soliciting Moon Palace Lord appeared in Northern Frontier City and cursed the Northern Frontier King. Wasn't it reasonable for the King of Northern Frontier to mobilize his cavalry to besiege the Shifting Flower Palace? As for military power…Hehe, General Yu is the uncle of the Northern Borderline King!”
……
When the Shifting Flower Palace was destroyed, it caused a huge commotion. The people of the Seven Hero Town were all discussing it.
These days, although the government rarely interfered with the affairs of the martial arts world, it was not as if they had never done so.
If the Jianghu forces were too arrogant, the government would not stand idly by.
Since ancient times, there had been many examples of the government besieging the forces of the martial world.
In the eyes of the commoners, the destruction of the Shifting Flower Palace was because the Palace Lord had angered the Northern Frontier King, who had massacred the Shifting Flower Palace.
Of course, this matter was still inconclusive. Everything was just speculation.
……
Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa.
"Father, there's news from the north. Last night, the famous Shifting Flower Palace was besieged by tens of thousands of cavalry.”
Heaven No.1 Duan Tianya half-knelt on the ground and reported to Iron-guts Divine Marquis Zhu.
Zhu Budian frowned and asked,""Who did this?"
"I don't know for the time being, but I guess it should be related to the Northern Frontier King.”Duan Tianya replied.
"Zhu Houwen…he dares to mobilize the cavalry to annihilate the Shifting Flower Palace?”Zhu Bujue was Zhu Houwen's Imperial Uncle, so he naturally knew how much Zhu Houwen was worth.
His judgment of Zhu Houwen was the same as the others. He thought that Zhu Houwen was weak and incompetent, and did not seem like someone who could do such a thing.
However, they had not seen each other for a few years. A few years was enough to change a person.
This matter immediately attracted Zhu Bujue's attention."Tian Ya, set off immediately. You must investigate this matter.”
"Yes, sir!" Duan Tianya responded and then turned to leave.
……
In the Imperial Palace, the East Chamber Governor Cao Zhengchun and the West Chamber Governor Yu Huatian arrived at the Throne Room.
The two eunuchs did not see eye to eye with each other. After all, they were fighting for power, so they naturally would not be too friendly.
However, the two of them did not take the initiative to cause trouble and entered the throne room together.
After entering the hall, Cao Zhengchun was the first to kneel and report,""This servant reports to the emperor that last night, the martial world's Shifting Flower Palace was annihilated by tens of thousands of cavalry.”
On the dragon throne, Zhu Houzhao was still playing with his concubine's three-inch golden lotus. He didn't care."It's fine if a martial arts force is destroyed. Why do you have to report such a small matter to me?”
"Your Majesty, you might not know this, but the Palace of Transforming Flowers is close to Northern Frontier City. The only person who can mobilize the cavalry in such a short period of time is the Northern Frontier King.”Yu Huatian immediately interjected.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Houzhao became spirited.
Speaking of Zhu Houzhao, this guy was also a dissolute and incompetent ruler.
Usually, he was most interested in eating, drinking, having fun, and having sex with women.
The only thing that could cheer him up was his throne.
Although he was licentious, he was not a fool. When he heard that this matter was related to the Northern Frontier King, he immediately understood what the two meant.
"The Northern Frontier King is going to destroy a martial arts sect with such great fanfare. What does he want?”Zhu Houzhao asked coldly.
At this moment, Yu Huatian immediately added," Your Majesty, this matter is only a guess. Whether it was done by the Northern Frontier King or not, we still need to verify it."”
"Since there is still a need to verify, why are you reporting it? Couldn't he investigate it first? Pass down my decree. Find out whether this matter has anything to do with the Northern Frontier King as soon as possible!”
Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes and his face darkened.
All along, he was most afraid of his ninth brother.
Even though his ninth brother was a noob, he knew that the military power of the 300,000 soldiers of the Northern Borderline was in the hands of General Feng alone.
And this Yu Feng was Zhu Houwen's uncle.
If there was a king with the greatest potential to rebel, then it would be him, Zhu Houwen!
Over the years, Zhu Houwen had been very honest. When he went to the northern border, he would eat, drink, and play every day. He never asked about military affairs.
It was also because of this that Zhu Houzhao was assured of him.
However, things were different now. What did this mean? It meant that Zhu Houwen had already begun to use his power to do things!
"Eunuch Cao, what happened? Did the East Hall investigate?”Yu Huatian pointed his spearhead at Cao Zhengchun.
"I haven't investigated it yet," Cao Zhengchun said with a smile.”
Hearing Cao Zhengchun's reply, Yu Huatian finally spoke,""Your Majesty, this servant's men have already investigated. This matter has nothing to do with the Northern Frontier King. There was no movement of the Northern Frontier Steel Cavalry last night.
In addition, according to the surrounding people, the clothes and equipment of the cavalry were also very different from those of the Northern Borderline. This servant followed the description of the special forces described by the commoners and did not find any army that matched.”
Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao frowned.""In that case, this cavalry isn't our Great Ming's army?”
