Collapsing Clouds Hall,
"Your Highness, His Majesty has come out of seclusion. Please let Haitang go to meet the Emperor!”
Shangguan Hai Tang said helplessly as she looked at the smiling Yun Luo Princess blocking her way.
In the entire Great Ming, who didn't know that this princess was the Emperor's most beloved younger sister and also loved to cause trouble the most.
However, although this princess loved to stir up trouble, she would always stop at a certain point. Even Shangguan Haitang, who had helped Yun Luo clean up many messes, could not get tired of this princess.
"Commander Haitang, it's not appropriate for you to meet the emperor at this time.”
"According to Imperial Brother's usual practice, he should have already rested at this time!”
Yun Luo pointed at the moonlight outside.
"But the Divine Marquis has ordered that Haitang must remonstrate with His Majesty after His Majesty comes out of seclusion. The imperial sword is here, so please make way for His Highness!”
Seeing that Yun Luo was still blocking her way, Shangguan Haitang had no choice but to reveal her trump card.
"Isn't it just an imperial sword? This princess has plenty here!”
"And you don't really think that your Divine Marquis, this princess 'good Imperial Uncle, is really thinking for Great Ming, right?”
Yun Luo said indifferently.
"Lord Divine Marquis has always been loyal. Your Highness, please don't listen to calumny and slander!”
Hearing someone criticize the person she respected the most in her life, Shangguan Hai Tang's pretty face flashed with a trace of anger.
"Is that so?"
"One is Duan Tianya, and the other is you, Shangguan Haitang. Both of you are known to be shrewd figures, but both of you are muddle-headed fools who are blinded by the light!”
"Let's not talk about anything else. Just the matter between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, how dare Zhu Bujue say that he has no selfish motives?" Yun Luo said disdainfully.”
"The Divine Overlord is just casting a long line to catch a big fish. It's not the time to pull the net back yet!”
Shangguan Haitang quickly explained.
"Is that so?"
"But according to what this princess knows, the intelligence of your Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa is basically handled by you, the number one secret agent of the Black Sect.
At this critical moment, Zhu Bujue sent you away for a long time. Don't you find it strange?”
"And that Duan Tianya was also sent to Jiangnan to investigate that Six Rens Divine Dice!”
"Don't say that these two matters are more important than Imperial Brother's safety. Even a fool wouldn't believe that!”
"As for Imperial Brother, he's just a little lazy. What other major problem could he have?”
"Don't forget, Imperial Sister-in-law has been managing the court for many days. Everything is in order, and even Zhu Bujue can't find any impeachable flaws!”
Yun Luo sneered.
Shangguan Haitang's heart sank.
Actually, after staying in the palace for so many days, Shangguan Haitang herself also felt that something was not right.
It was indeed absurd for Zhu Houzhao to involve Wu Zhao in politics, but it was only a temporary measure. Moreover, even Shangguan Haitang herself had to admit that Wu Zhao's approval during this period was basically reasonable.
Under such circumstances, Zhu Bujue did not allow Shangguan Haitang to pursue the matter of Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue, who damaged the dignity of the Ming royal family and might affect the safety of Emperor Ming. Instead, he used remonstrance as an excuse to leave her in the palace for many days. It was indeed a little illogical.
However, Shangguan Haitang still could not doubt her godfather, or rather, she was unwilling to doubt him.
"It seems that Imperial Brother is right. You are indeed a stubborn person!”
"Alright, just stay here for this princess and see what your so-called Divine Overlord is like!”
Seeing that Shangguan Haitang still refused to believe it, Yun Luo lost her patience. With a gentle wave of her hand, Shangguan Haitang was completely restrained.
"Something's wrong?"
"How did this princess suddenly become so strong?”
"Could it be that she's someone else in disguise? Or was she hiding her true colors previously?”
Shangguan Haitang was extremely shocked.
Although she was most skilled in the art of hidden weapons, her cultivation was also at the level of Xiantian peak. Even an ordinary grandmaster had a chance to win.
The Yun Luo that Shangguan Hai Tang knew was only at the early stage of the Xiantian realm. The reason why she could win every battle in the palace was all because of her status as a princess.
But now, the difference in strength between the two had completely exceeded Shangguan Haitang's imagination.
Could it be that what the princess said was true?
The foster father that he had trusted for twenty years, would he really be that two-faced person?
Shangguan Haitang was completely lost.
"Do you want to make a bet? If this princess is wrong, I will agree to three of your requests!”
"If this princess isn't wrong, then why don't you enter the palace and become imperial brother's concubine?”
Yun Luo giggled.
"Ah?"
Shangguan Haitang was stunned.
"Another pitiful person!"
"There's no other way, who asked this princess to be soft-hearted!”
"It's just that Imperial Brother has benefited a little again!”
Looking at Shangguan Haitang, who was still in a daze, Yun Luo's big eyes rolled, and then a sly smile appeared on his face.
......
West Hall,
"Governor, that Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue are just two traitors among the common people. They actually want to step on the summit of the forbidden city. Why are they stopping us?”
The Thousand Households Executioner asked with a puzzled expression.
"Naturally, there are more important things to do!”
"Don't forget, the original intention of our West Hall was to help His Majesty monitor the court. As for the martial artists, that's the job of the Brocade Guard!”
Yu Huatian waved his hand indifferently.
"Yes, sir!"
The Thousand Households Executioner was slightly taken aback, but he quickly reacted.
Even if a few martial artists among the people had a certain degree of influence, it was impossible for them to create such a huge commotion without the help of the nobles in the court.
This was especially so when the entire populace was already abuzz with this matter, yet there was not much commotion in the imperial court. It was truly extremely strange.
......
The Royal Guards 'yamen
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise were gathered together.
"This time, our Embroidered Uniform Guards 'goal is to capture all martial artists who dare to approach the palace, no matter who they are!”
"Those who dare to arrest them will be killed without mercy!”
"This group of people dares to ignore His Majesty's dignity. That is a slap to the face of all the Brocade Guards. Do you understand?"”
"Commander, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng are both great grandmasters of the sword. Even if the four of us work together, we might not be able to do it!”
Black Tortoise hesitated.
"Don't worry, it's just two martial grandmasters. There will be others to deal with them!”
An imperceptible expression flashed across the Azure Dragon's eyes, but he said without showing any emotion on his face.
......
Dragon Guard Mountain Villa,
"Godfather, Tian Ya is useless. When we arrived in Jiangnan, the entire Jiang Bie He mansion had already been turned into ashes, and Liu Xi was nowhere to be found.”
Duan Tianya kneeled down with an ashamed expression.
"It's not your fault!"
"The supervisor of the East Chamber has been replaced. According to this king's speculation, it is very likely that Cao Zhengchun did it!”
Zhu Budian personally helped Duan Tianya up.
"This is bad!"
"If Cao Zhengchun were to obtain the divine skill of the Divine Six Rens Die, wouldn't it be disadvantageous to foster father?”
Duan Tianya looked worried.
"It doesn't matter. This Prince's battle with that eunuch is ultimately a private matter. The most important thing now is to monitor the martial artists in Jingdou.”
Zhu Budian said with a righteous look.
"Yes, sir!"
Duan Tianya felt even more ashamed of his earlier suspicion of Zhu Bujue.
The reason why Godfather had Haitang stay in the palace for a long time was definitely to protect the Emperor.
Ai, if His Majesty could have even ten percent of Godfather's power, how would Da Ming have fallen to such a state!
