The current emperor is not Xiao Duo, Emperor Ai, but Xiao Zhantian, Emperor Yuanwu of Tianqi, a supremely powerful celestial being who can kill two celestial beings with one person.

They were in the upper capital, and their fear of Xiao Zhantian was far greater than that of the Jin Yiwei in the mainland of Great Zhou.

They had seen Xiao Zhantian's cruelty, ruthlessness, and ruthlessness with their own eyes.

The previous scenes of Xiao Zhantian purging Daliang's old ministers and bloodbathing the imperial city are still vivid in his mind.

During that time, people were beheaded every day in Caishikou, and not just one or two people were beheaded, but one or two hundred people.

Every day, officials' homes were confiscated and their families were exterminated, and all nine clans were wiped out!

It can be said that Xiao Zhantian ascended to the throne of God by stepping on countless corpses.

What's more, they also knew that Xiao Zhantian had forced back millions of armies from both countries.

Faced with such a domineering, ruthless and powerful peerless emperor, Da Zhou started a war with Tian Qi at this moment, and his chances of winning were slim.

Once it fails, the frontier army will be the first to die.

The second ones to die were the Jin Yiwei.

And this time they, the royal guards, were responsible for protecting the princess when she entered the city, and the marriage between the two countries went smoothly.

Now that the marriage has failed, they are all guilty of incompetence.

Emperor Jingtai was so angry that they were all held accountable and all of them had their heads thrown to the ground.

"Sir, what should we do now?"

Many of the Jin Yiwei looked at Xiao Wuji, all of them looked pale and panicked. They were obviously lost.

Their minds were spinning slowly and they couldn't figure out the twists and turns.

Only the fourth eunuch, Sima 14, noticed something was wrong.

"Everyone, shut up!"

Sima Lang shouted angrily, silencing everyone's discussion and suppressing the panic in their hearts.

Sima Lang looked at Xiao Wuji and said:"Thirteenth brother, something is wrong with this matter."

"Although I have not seen Princess Liuyun for many years, I also know that Princess Liuyun is gentle by nature and weak in body."

"How could such a princess assassinate Emperor Tianqi Yuanwu in the main hall in full view of everyone?"

Sima Lang's wife is the princess of the Dazhou royal family, and she is related to the royal family by marriage. She has seen Princess Liuyun when she was a child.

In Sima Lang's view, how can Princess Liuyun be a weak princess with no innate realm? Assassinate a powerful man who unites nature and man

"Also, Princess Liuyun has always been well-behaved and obeyed His Majesty's will."

"Since His Majesty sent her to form a marriage alliance, the princess would not resist, let alone assassinate Emperor Yuanwu."

"Thirteenth brother, in my opinion, there is fraud in this."

Sima Lang looked at Xiao Wuji with a solemn expression.

There are more than one or two smart people in the world.

In fact, the assassination planned by the inner demon this time was too full of flaws. Even if Sima Lang was not present at the scene, he could deduce it with just a little inference. The problem is there.

Xiao Wuji nodded and said:"I have also thought of these, and they are generally consistent with what you think."

"The marriage between Dazhou and Tianqi is about to happen. No matter how unwise your majesty is, you will not send the princess to assassinate Emperor Yuanwu. That would be harmful but not beneficial."

"Once the assassination occurs, regardless of victory or defeat, it will harm the interests of both countries."

"If what I think is correct, someone must be sowing discord in this matter, trying to destroy the marriage between the two countries and profit from it. Sima Lang nodded and said:"

The top priority is that we must find out the inside story of the assassination case and restore Da Zhou's innocence.""

"We must find out before the two countries completely go to war, so that we can destroy the plan of the mastermind behind it."

"By the way, Thirteenth Brother, didn’t you contact the Jin Yiwei in the mission’s guard team? What did he say?"

Xiao Wuji shook his head slightly and said:"I summoned seven times in a row, but no one from the regiment's guards responded."

"If I guessed correctly, Anzi, the royal guard in the mission, would have been dead long ago. I am afraid that even the mission guard would have been replaced by someone long ago."

"How can it be?!!!"

Even Sima Lang was shocked when he heard Xiao Wuji's conjecture.

The mission guard, composed of 2,000 soldiers from hundreds of battles, was replaced. This is simply a fantasy.

"Who can do such a thing?"

Sima Lang had a look of fear on his face.

Xiao Wuji said:"I can only think of one force with a motive and such ability."

Xiao Wuji and Sima Lang looked at each other. Sima Lang was a smart man. After Xiao Wuji's prompting, he immediately thought of the Demon Cult.

"Yes, it can only be those people."

Sima Lang sighed.

Xiao Wuji said:"Report the news and our speculation to Jinling, and let the commander and the emperor make the decision."

"good"

"......"

Soon, the flying eagle flew across the sky, flying from Shangjing City to Jinling City.

After receiving the letter from Xiao Wuji, Yuan Xiong, who was in Jinling City, immediately went to the palace to see the emperor and report the situation.

Jinling City of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Daluo Hall of the Imperial Palace

"Your Majesty, this is a letter from Xiao Wuji, the Thirteenth Taibao, from Shangjing City. Princess Liuyun assassinated Emperor Yuanwu in court and was beheaded!"

Yuan Xiong knelt down on the ground, holding the letter in his hands, and said every word sonorously.

Emperor Jingtai and Xia Yunxuan's expressions changed drastically when they heard this.

"What did you say? Say it again?"

Emperor Jingtai felt that he was hallucinating, and quickly asked Yuan Xiong to repeat it.

Yuan Xiong said in a low voice:"Princess Liuyun assassinated Emperor Yuanwu in court, and she has been beheaded!" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Emperor Jingtai was furious and roared angrily:"Yun'er has a gentle temperament and voluntarily went to Tianqi to get married for the alliance between the two countries. How could he assassinate Emperor Yuanwu in court?""

"I don't believe this nonsense."

After saying that, Emperor Jingtai grabbed the letter from Yuan Xiong's hand, took it into his hand, and opened it. When he saw it, he was suddenly filled with anger, his expression was gloomy, and his murderous intent broke out.

After reading the letter and knowing the cause and effect, Emperor Jingtai was furious.

"Demonic Cult! It’s the Demon Cult again! These traitors deserve death!"

"Poor Yun'er, I was actually used by the traitors of the Demon Cult and died tragically in a foreign country!"

"Hateful, hateful!!!"

Emperor Jingtai looked up to the sky and roared, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

Princess Liuyun's face could not help but appear in Emperor Jingtai's mind, the way she smiled, cried, ran, played and acted coquettishly towards him.

Jingtai The emperor had more than a dozen daughters, but Princess Liuyun was his favorite, otherwise he would not have sent Princess Liuyun to Tianqi for marriage.

Although it was for the purpose of forming an alliance between the two countries, it was a political marriage.

But Emperor Jingtai wanted Princess Liuyun To be the Queen of Tianqi, one person is inferior to ten thousand people.

In Emperor Jingtai’s opinion, only his Princess Liuyun is qualified to be the Queen of Tianqi.

However, due to the persecution of the Demon Cult, his Liuyun died.

"The rebels of the Demonic Sect should be found by everyone and punished!"

"If I don't kill all the rebels of the Demon Sect and destroy the nine tribes, I will not be able to let go of the hatred in my heart!"

"Xia Yunxuan!"

"Wei Chen is here!"

Hearing Emperor Jingtai's roar, Xia Yunxuan trembled, walked out immediately, and saluted respectfully.

Emperor Jingtai said:"Send an order to Youzhou Counselor Xu Shirong, asking him to conduct a thorough investigation of the entire territory of Youzhou day and night, and make sure to find the demon sect's lair. Find out, catch them all"

"I will give him another seven days. If there is no result in seven days, I will take his head!"

"Also, send an additional 50,000 troops to Youzhou to prepare for emergencies! Xia Yunxuan said respectfully:"

Yes, I obey the order.""

The reason why we need to thoroughly investigate the entire territory of Youzhou is because when the leader of the Demon Cult, Shangguan Wudao, broke through the unity of heaven and man, he appeared within the boundaries of Youzhou.

The royal family, heaven and man,Xia Luotian informed Emperor Jingtai of this news, so Emperor Jingtai ordered Youzhou General Xu Shirong to lead the Youzhou garrison to conduct a thorough investigation of the entire territory of Youzhou.

Originally this was not a time-bound task.

The demon sect's home base, Xuanniao Cave, is well hidden. Even if Xu Shirong 460 cannot find it, he will only be scolded for not doing things well.

The most it can do is to be demoted and fined.

However, Emperor Jingtai was already furious because of Princess Liuyun.

When the emperor becomes angry, his ministers will naturally be implicated.

Xu Shirong became the fish that was affected, and the consequence of failure in doing things was a direct loss of life.

Emperor Jingtai's expression was gloomy, his pupils were filled with cold light, and the true energy surged in his hands, shattering the letter into powder.

"I will spend my whole life trying to catch all the traitors of the Demon Sect in one fell swoop, and I will fight to the death!"

Both Xia Yunxuan and Yuan Xiong were infected by Emperor Jingtai's anger and felt uneasy. The current Emperor Jingtai made them seem to have seen Emperor Jingtai thirteen years ago.

Emperor Jingtai has been on the throne for twenty-three years. In the first ten years, Jingtai The emperor was wise and powerful, tough-minded, and domineering. He was an out-and-out heroic and wise king.

In the following thirteen years, Emperor Jingtai degenerated and became a faint king.

But now the furious Emperor Jingtai seems to have returned to the thirteenth year. Years ago.

The majesty of the emperor on his body made Xia Yunxuan and Yuan Xiong secretly frightened.

Yuan Xiong took a deep breath and said anxiously:"Your Majesty, the crusade against the demon sect's rebels is indeed a top priority, but the relationship between our country and Apocalypse is also in urgent need of repair."

"This time, the demon sect rebels controlled Princess Liuyun, and not only assassinated Emperor Yuanwu in front of the court, but also poisoned and assassinated all the civil and military officials of Tianqi court."

"According to Xiao Wuji, if Emperor Yuanwu Xiao Zhantian hadn't taken action in time, all the civil and military officials in the Tianqi court would have died."

"Nowadays, the civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty are very angry and are already discussing the use of troops against me, the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Xiao Wuji also found out that Beigong Chu, the general of Tianqi's southern border, had already received orders to rush to the southern border."

"The Apocalypse court is raising food and grass, and the war between the two countries is just around the corner."

"Your Majesty, this matter is urgent. Xia

Yunxuan also stood up and said:"Your Majesty, Yuan Xiong is right. The top priority is to quell the dispute between the two countries.""
