I have an eternal eye
Chapter 109 Burning Love Qionghua Palace
The atmosphere in Beichen Hall was extremely depressing.
On the dragon throne, with sandalwood lingering on both sides, Zhao Mian was wearing a robe, with an expressionless face.
The ministers bowed their heads, but no one spoke.
"Report!"
A shout broke the dead silence.
I saw a deputy general of the Royal Forest Army kneeling down on one knee after entering the palace, cupping his hands and saying: "Chu Shiyuan has been captured. At the same time, there is also a Killing Cult warlock who is about to silence him, and they have all been imprisoned."
"Chu Shiyuan has confessed, and what was said in the secret letter...is all true."
When Zhao Mian heard this, his expression turned extremely ugly.
Grand Sima Lu Wuji and Prime Minister Liu Ji looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Wuji got the news and realized that Chu Shiyuan was a key figure. He immediately ordered his arrest and also sent people to Li Mansion to check.
Just now, my subordinates reported that there was no one in the Li Mansion, and only the body of the head of the Li family was left. Although it was suspicious, it could not be confirmed.
Chu Shiyuan was arrested, and he also caught the demon killer, and the matter was concluded.
Yesterday, Zhao Mian also proposed to officially crown Li Gui as queen during the Winter Solstice Festival.
Thinking of this matter, Lu Wuji became frightened. He stepped out of the queue and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to make a decision!"
"I beg your Majesty to issue an order immediately!"
Prime Minister Liu Ji and the officials also spoke one after another.
They were afraid of Zhao Mian's power, but unlike those local officials, their wealth and life were tied to Yujing City, so they naturally did not dare to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
The Killing Cult sneaked into the imperial city, allowed Li Guiren to enter the palace, and also attracted the commander of Jinwu Guards and the governor of Jingzhao Mansion. He was a fool and knew that he had a big conspiracy.
Zhao Mian's eyes trembled slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Where is Xiao Shen?"
Xiao Shen, the commander of the imperial guards, was already wearing military armor and was guarding outside the palace. After hearing the words, he immediately entered the palace.
"I'm here!"
"Go and surround Qionghua Palace."
"I accept the decree!"
At the command, the Imperial Guards swarmed towards the Qionghua Palace with murderous intent.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Liu Ji said again: "Your Majesty, to be on the safe side, it's better to summon Yu Zhenfu to go with him."
Zhao Mian was silent for a moment, "Yes!"
Linghu Kui, the censor doctor, also came out and said: "Your Majesty, the Li family is a den of demons. It has framed countless loyal people in the past. I sincerely request that the case be reversed and investigated thoroughly, so that those officials can be cleared!"
As if there was an order, the officials also came out one after another. Some wanted to thoroughly investigate the officials' dealings, some asked to check the accounts, and some even asked to interrogate the six doors...
Everyone was filled with indignation and even had tears in their eyes.
On the dragon throne, Zhao Mian had a sinister look in his eyes, tightly grasped the armrest, and remained silent.
He knows what these people think.
It seems to be targeting the killing cult, but in fact it is targeting Li Guiren and himself.
The world was falling apart. Daliang said he was withdrawing his fist and waiting for the opportunity, but in fact he only had the ability to control one state. Under the glory, he was already extremely weak.
He eradicated disloyal bureaucrats from other places and supported officials and generals in the capital to come to power. At the same time, he also increased his control and made the court a single-minded court.
But how can people fill their desires?
The ministers seemed to be targeting the killing cult, but in fact they wanted to expand the matter and attack his prestige.
Maybe, someone is already adding fuel to the flames in the market at this moment, giving Li Guiren the title of demon concubine.
He doted on the demon concubine, and the title of faint king was inseparable from her.
Zhao Mian was angry, but he knew that if he continued to kill indiscriminately at this moment, the people's hearts that had finally been united would fall apart.
The Liang Dynasty will have no hope at all.
In his decades of reign, he has never felt so aggrieved.
Zhao Mian's eyes turned black and his face was expressionless, but his teeth were clenching.
"No noise is allowed in the court hall!"
Seeing this, Da Sima Lu Wuji quickly came out to reprimand, "The most urgent task is to arrest the demons of the Killing Cult. We will discuss other matters later."
Prime Minister Liu Ji also nodded quickly, "Your Majesty has made his own decision on this matter. How can you behave in such a noisy manner?"
The two spoke, and the others did not dare to say more.
Zhao Mian also calmed down at this time. He glanced around indifferently and knew what these people wanted. He slowly said: "Yu Zhen Mansion has obtained the secret method of Huo Luo Cult, and can train monks. After the first batch is successful, , all children from every family in the capital can join the Yuzhen Mansion."
"In addition to this, each army can also select elites and train military monks."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
For a time, there were constant praises in the court.
Zhao Mian is also helpless. He wants to hold this power firmly in his hands, but now that he doesn't get a share of the pie and the dissatisfaction of all forces is accumulating, Yujing City will never have peace.
At this moment, a guard hurriedly came to the palace, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Li hanged himself."
"What?"
Zhao Mian stood up suddenly.
Prime Minister Liu Ji secretly thought that something was wrong, so he quickly came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to report..."
"enough!"
Zhao Mian roared, glared at everyone and said: "Dasuo in the capital, arrest the demons of the killing cult. I'm exhausted, let's disperse!"
After that, he turned and left.
The ministers looked at each other and said nothing.
Zhao Mian agreed to open up the monk quota, which was the greatest victory for them.
If you press any further, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive.
She's just a woman, just trying to please people. The Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard are all beautiful, and the royal family has always been ruthless. It won't be long before someone new takes their place.
Right now, it is better to go back quickly and see which of the children in the family can support the appearance and be sent to Yuzhen Mansion as soon as possible.
The ministers were absent-minded and left one after another...
…………
Not long after they left, Beichen Palace became quiet, leaving only the maids and eunuchs cleaning carefully.
Uh-huh!
A young eunuch turned his head if he felt something.
"What's wrong?"
"I think I saw a black cat."
"They are probably wild cats. There are a lot of them in the palace. Find a day to clean them up so as not to alert the emperor..."
There was no one at the back of the hall, and Yueying appeared and ran quickly. Whenever there were many people, he used trickery to become invisible.
Although Zhang Biao was once a six-door policeman, like ordinary people, he had never been to the imperial palace. After going around and around, he came to Beichen Palace.
He saw clearly what was going on in the palace.
Although I don’t know much about the court battles, I also know that this group of powerful people talk about killing animals, but they are fighting for other things.
He cannot mention disappointment,
Because I don't care at all.
During the three hundred years of the Liang Dynasty, the upper echelons of power had already had a different set of ideas. Everyone had their own plans, and they would fight for power even if it was urgent.
No matter how cruel the killing cult is, it won't cut their flesh. How can anyone care?
However, depending on the situation, most of the monks in the imperial court will be the children of powerful people, just like those in places ruled by sects.
If ordinary people want to get started, they must mutate like Zhou Dalang and awaken their innate magical powers...
Zhang Biao controlled Yueying and led Emperor Zhao Mian and others from a distance to the outside of Qionghua Palace.
Below the towering Qionghua Palace, the Forbidden Army has been completely surrounded. In addition, there are Huo Luo Sect Hu Monk, holding a magic weapon and a torch to explore everywhere.
Zhang Biao frowned slightly and did not approach.
The torch of the Huo Luo Cult can illuminate the darkness. If the moon shadow approaches rashly, the invisibility technique will become ineffective.
The Killing Sect's strength has been greatly reduced after this incident, and the Fire Sect is probably more interested in it than anyone else.
His target is Xiao Shen, the commander of the Forbidden Army. He must find the opportunity to use the enchantment technique to get the news.
The commander of the imperial army, Xiao Shen, was a tall man with a full beard. He was guarding outside the palace. When he saw Zhao Mian arriving, he lowered his head and held his hands in his hands. He didn't know what he said.
Snapped!
Zhao Mian slapped him hard and quickly entered the palace without waiting for an explanation.
Xiao Shen had no expression on his face and waited on the spot.
Zhang Biao had no choice but to let Yueying find a secluded place and monitor him from a distance.
Fortunately, he now has deep Qi, which is enough to support Yueying's activities for a long time...
…………
Zhao Mian hurriedly entered the main hall and saw Li Mingshu, dressed in plain clothes and sitting on the ground with a pale face.
It was surrounded by white silks scattered around, masters of the Forbidden Army and monks from the Fire Sect, who surrounded it heavily.
While Zhao Mian breathed a sigh of relief, his expression turned ferocious and he said in a deep voice, "Why?"
Li Mingshu looked calm and pale and said: "Your Majesty, can you exclude others? I have something to say that I want to talk to you alone."
Zhao Mian clenched his fist tightly and waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, no!"
"Your Majesty must not take risks..."
Luan Moyan panicked and stopped him, and even Arod, who had followed him, also stopped him.
"Go out, I know what's going on."
Zhao Mian's eyes were firm, and after he dismissed everyone, he slowly said: "Mingshu, what is your reason? Have you been taken advantage of by the killing cult?"
"Talk to me and I will save your life."
Li Mingshu said calmly: "If your Majesty protects me, how will you face the ministers and the people of Yujing City?"
Zhao Mian snorted coldly, "I am a noble of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. If I can't even protect my own woman, how can I protect this country?!"
"Your Majesty, it is indeed your Majesty."
Li Mingshu's eyes flashed with emotion, and she slowly said: "They are right, I really come from the Slaughter Cult."
"Why?"
Zhao Mian's face suddenly turned ugly.
What he just meant was that as long as Li Mingshu said that she was being coerced and shied away the responsibility, her life would be spared.
But the other party just admitted it, and there was no chance of reversing the matter, so he could only die.
Thinking of this, Zhao Mian became more and more annoyed, "You are already the head of the harem, and your mother will honor the world after the winter solstice. Why should you sacrifice your life for the killing cult? I really can't figure it out."
"Your Majesty, this is a battle of avenues."
Li Mingshu smiled, "Everyone in the world says that my life-killing religion has brought disaster to the world, but this is actually a fool's opinion."
"Wolves eat sheep to make a living. Because sheep are weak, is it wrong for wolves?"
"Your Majesty led troops into the palace to seize power, quelled the rebellion of the three kings, wiped out the grasslands of northern Xinjiang, and made Daliang prosperous. Is it because of kindness?"
"Which of those sects and noble families doesn't take life by killing?"
"To be honest, all the sects in the world are looking forward to the collapse of the beam so that they can be separated in the troubled times. Only I, the Killing Sect, want to help the beam."
"Our original plan was to train monks for Daliang. The army has to kill people anyway. If we use the killing sacrifice during the war, we can get help from heaven and wipe out all directions!"
"As well as His Majesty's Heaven-winning Pill and Heaven-winning Life, don't you still want to kill those children?"
"With the help of our Killing Sect, it is not impossible to restore the prosperous age of Daliang."
"It depends on Your Majesty, how you choose..."
After saying this, Zhao Mian's face became uncertain, but he still said coldly: "That's nonsense. It seems that you are really bewitched."
"As I said before, confess the remaining evildoers and I will protect your life!"
After hearing this, Li Mingshu's eyes were full of disappointment, and her voice became cold, "In that case, I have nothing to say."
"Your Majesty, take care of yourself..."
After saying that, thick smoke billowed out from his body and turned into a paper figure, slowly burning.
Looking at the paper man, Zhao Mian felt that he was being mocked, and with a roar, he pushed the tables, chairs and utensils in the hall to pieces.
"Catch the murderous cultists throughout the city, and I will kill them with a thousand knives!"
Angry roars came from the Qionghua Palace.
After Zhao Mian vented his anger, he called Luan Moyan in and said coldly: "That Bai Yan is also a murderer. Send someone to arrest him!"
Luan Moyan's legs trembled and he knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, I have sent people there. The demon Bai Yan has escaped, but he left this thing behind."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of white paper from his arms.
"What's this?"
"Heaven-winning elixir recipe."
"Burn immediately..."
Anger rose in Zhao Mian's heart, but he suddenly felt weak. Thinking of the situation in the palace just now, he hesitated, gritted his teeth and changed his words: "That's all, let's keep it for now."
"How's the alchemy room?"
Luan Moyan quickly replied: "Last time, two six-door police officers broke in. I was afraid of being exposed, so I found another place to stay."
Zhao Mian took a deep breath and said coldly: "Let Xiao Shen take action and destroy the traces immediately!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Luan Moyan got the order and left in a hurry.
Looking at the empty hall and thinking of the beauties of the past, Zhao Mian felt a sense of sadness in his heart, accompanied by a huge feeling of weakness and powerlessness.
Zhao Mian trembled and took out the Heaven-Sealing Pill from his arms. After hesitating for a while, he slowly stuffed it into his mouth...
…………
Outside the palace, Arod suddenly turned ugly when he heard that Li Guiren turned into a paper man and burned himself.
"This is a substitute technique. Why are you stopping me? If I check it, will it allow people to escape?"
He was annoyed in his heart. If these people hadn't stopped him, they would have discovered something fishy, and maybe they could find traces and catch the person.
Li Guiren's identity is by no means simple in the killing cult. If he is not eliminated in one fell swoop, there will be endless troubles.
Luan Moyan was also speechless.
These monks are really ignorant. You dare to check the emperor's woman randomly, you are just looking for death.
But he was too lazy to care about it, and quickly said with a smile: "Don't be upset, holy monk, it's all my fault. The most important thing is to arrest the remaining members of the Killing Cult as soon as possible."
Arold had no choice but to turn around and leave.
After they left, Luan Moyan came to Xiao Shen and whispered in a low voice.
Xiao Shen nodded, and immediately called more than 20 of his confidants, and hurriedly left the imperial city, heading towards the northeast side of Yujing City in the wind and snow.
What they didn't realize was that Zhang Biao was also wearing a bamboo hat, following closely behind...
