Chapter 338: Splashing Dirty Water
The mouth of the regent of Zhou Zhi seemed to be a little crooked, and his face was swollen as if he was drunk. His eyes were still staring at the young man who had just spoken to him, and his throat was constantly emitting a low and rough sound.
It is said that since he became the regent, except for Lin Mingyuan, who is also in this capacity, no one dares to contradict him, including the new king of their Saran country.
However, now there is a bastard boy who came from nowhere and dares to on his head in the palace, how can this make Zhou Zhi not angry!
Zhou Zhidu was about to call someone to arrest the kid with horns on his head. But fortunately, with the persuasion of the king, there seems to be a tendency to calm the situation.
"Okay, uncle, you don't have to deal with a junior!" Wei Tianwen's voice seemed to be a little bitter, and his arms were also hovering in front of him.
Zhou Zhi still looked very angry like that, "But...... But...... King...... This guy ......" He was angry, but also thought of Shen Mengting and his person, "That's right! Please punish the king! This woman actually brought some suspicious people into the palace, please hurry up and cure their crimes!"
Zhou Zhi's speech silenced the atmosphere inside the palace, and everyone looked at me and I looked at you.
In the end, it was the king who broke this dull aura, "Alas, Uncle Zhou Zhi! Don't worry about a junior!" Seeing that Zhou Zhi seemed to be very unwilling, he added, "And now is not the time to take care of private affairs." Uncle, we still have important things to discuss, and everything else should be put on the back burner!"
was told by the king like this, Zhou Zhi only felt that the idea of punishment being disrespectful to himself was completely blocked.
"But, Your Majesty the King!" Zhu Hongxin resounded at this moment, "Since Shen Mengting brought these unknown characters to the palace, then I think it is necessary for her to introduce these people well." Otherwise, the palace of Kiyose City will be inexplicably mixed with some strange people, or in this sensitive period, I'm afraid I will ...... What a mess!"
Zhu Hongxin's words made sense, and others, including Lin Mingyuan, actually nodded.
Seeing this, Shen Mengting straightened her chest, "They are not strange people, let alone indiscriminate. They are the strong men I have met along the way. They have extraordinary abilities and believe that they can contribute to our country!"
"Oh, is that really the case? Mengting, who are they?" Lin Mingyuan shook the sleeve on his arm.
"Uncle, they did all meet me on the road, except for Jiang Jingwen!"
"Oh?" Lin Mingyuan frowned, and then carefully observed the four young people who came in with Shen Mengting.
And when he saw Jiang Jingwen, Lin Mingyuan's eyes suddenly widened, "Ah......?
"She's Jingwen!Uncle Jiang Yuanhe's daughter!"
"Huh?" Lin Mingyuan began to look at Jiang Jingwen again, "You said she was...... Oh! It looks a bit like that between the eyebrows! but...... Hmm? So, Mengting! Did you go out to find Jiang Yuanhe this time? Please ask him to come to the city to help?"
Wei Tianwen listened to the conversation between the two and kept nodding his head. He had heard the name Jiang Yuanhe since he was a child, and he knew that he was a very, very powerful doctor.
And Zhou Zhi and Zhu Hongxin's expressions are not so good-looking, they are still crooked and twitching their frontal facial bones, as if the name 'Jiang Yuanhe' is not so pleasant.
"Ahh
"Oh, is that so?" Lin Mingyuan looked a little ashamed. He licked his lips and sighed, "Oh, it looks like he's still forgotten the past!"
"Hmph! A person who only knows how to escape is like a lost dog!" Zhou Zhi shook his arm disdainfully.
Seeing that someone was insulting her father, Jiang Jingwen glared at the guy angrily. If it weren't for such an occasion, she would have fought back in the same way.
"So!Shen Mengting!, and the other three?" Wei Tiantian lowered his head and looked at Shen Mengting with a roll of his eyes.
"I can't finish talking about them for a while, because I have something very important to tell!" Shen Mengting's posture changed. I saw her stride back backwards, and made a gesture of a respectful fist salute. Slowly bent down, she bowed to the king again.
Shen Mengting's formation was really a little frightening, and Wei Tianwen's expression became much more serious, "What's the matter? Shen Mengting! Just report anything to it!" But after saying this, he suddenly raised his eyebrows as if he thought of something, "Well, could it be that it has a lot to do with the three months that you have been missing?"
"Mengting, where have you been in the past three months?" Lin Mingyuan looked very serious, he was cautious by nature, and he had long known that this might have a lot to do with the current situation.
"Actually, I've been involved in a lot of things these days. And I will definitely tell the truth about this matter!" Shen Mengting pushed the hand that was made into a fist salute and pushed it forward heavily.
"Shen Mengting, what the hell is going on, you tell it slowly, we will all listen carefully!" Wei Tianwen raised his head solemnly.
After nodding her head violently, Shen Mengting first revealed the beginning of the matter, "Actually...... I'm on my way to the border between the Sauron Empire and our Saran!"
"Huh, border, what are you doing there?"
Shen Mengting's appearance suddenly became a little sad and sad, as if she would be sobbing in the next moment,
Wei Tianwen seemed to be a little confused when he saw this, so the others were even more confused.
When Shen Mengting's lips moved, everything was slowly told. From more than three months ago, when Uncle Yang Jiening found out about the misdeeds of the Sauron Empire, to his decision to go to that country to explore it himself. Originally, Shen Mengting also wanted to participate, but was stopped by Yang Jiening.
So, the two discussed meeting at the border between Sauron and Saran. But when Shen Mengting went to a town in the border, she didn't wait for Yang Jiening to come.
"What...... What? You say...... You mean...... Uncle Yang Jiening has discovered the misdeeds of the Sauron Empire!" Wei Tianwen looked at Shen Mengting with an incredible gaze. At the same time, it was precisely because of his loud words that Shen Mengting's steady retelling was interrupted.
"Exactly!"
"That'...... So that means ......" Wei Tianwen only felt that the surrounding environment was a little stuffy, and sweat stains were almost oozing under his armpits.
"Wait! I have something to say!" Zhou Zhi's legs also moved quickly, and he came directly to Shen Mengting, "You just said that Yang Jiening discovered the misdeeds of the Sauron Empire, and then decided to go there to investigate it himself?"
Shen Mengting directly met the regent's gaze, and she didn't seem to be evasive, "Yes! That's the fact!"
"Okay! Now I finally know!" Zhou Zhi's half face twitched, but it didn't take long for a treacherous smile to emerge from that strange twitching feeling, "Your Majesty, you can also hear what is going on!" Yang Jiening, that guy, after suspecting that the Sauron Empire had misdeeds, decided to go there to find out. Then it seems that the fact that he infiltrated the opponent's armory is also a fact!"
Zhou Zhi's words almost silenced everyone, and Zhu Hongxin, who was not far away, also hurriedly came over to echo, "That's right! This also confirms the fact that Yang Jiening stole into the armory of other countries, please let the king quickly reduce the responsibility for that." At the same time, don't hesitate any longer, immediately report to the whole country to arrest the person who caused the trouble, and send it to the country of Sauron to deal with!"
For a while, Wei Tianwen's heart seemed to have been shot with a few arrows, and even his breathing tube was blocked.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Didn't I just say that it was Uncle Yang Jiening who discovered the misdeeds of the Sauron Empire, do you understand the words 'misdeeds'? That's why he went to the Sauron Empire to investigate?"
"What's the point of what you're talking about? Anyway, he just infiltrated someone's secret armory to steal something, right?" Zhou Zhi's mouth was crooked, making people feel the urge to step forward and punch him.
"And your words are really full of loopholes! What do you mean by misdeeds? Where is the evidence of misdeeds? How can there be suspicions and suddenly sneak into other countries' military-sensitive places?" Zhu Hongxin also looked like a deputy provocative, and he seemed to be determined to punish Yang Jiening's guilt.
These two regent were the sworn enemies of Uncle Yang Jiening in the past, and there was no shortage of people who splashed the former marshal with dirty water in front of the king. Shen Mengting was very angry about this. And at present, they are even more vividly denigrating. If it weren't for the fact that they were in the palace and they were the regent appointed by the previous king, Shen Mengting might have to draw her sword and fight.
"Who said there is no evidence?" Shen Mengting shot back excitedly, "If there is no evidence, can I swagger over at this moment?"
"Oh, Shen Mengting, you say there is evidence?" Wei Tianwen's ears were about to stand up, and he immediately stretched out his hand to the front, "So where is the evidence?"
Suddenly, almost everyone present turned their eyes to Shen Mengting's direction.
Shen Mengting was a little unable to breathe, because she knew that the so-called evidence was not in her hands at the moment. Therefore, she could only swallow her saliva in embarrassment, and her neck shrank like a bottomless breath, "The proof is...... It's a black covered document bag, which contains all the information about the Sauron Empire's invasion of Saran, including the year and the location of the troops!"
And as soon as her words fell, a great commotion instantly spread throughout the palace. Not only the nearby king and regent, but even the guards in the distance began to whisper.
"What...... What did you just say? The Sauron Empire wants to ...... It's really going to ...... Is it really going to invade our country? ...... it," Lin Mingyuan's expression was as surprised as he was.
The same was true of the other three regents, who seemed unable to utter even a word. It is said that they have smelled the possible 'bad behavior' of the Sauron Empire, but the form has deteriorated so quickly that it is impossible to think of it.
Shen Mengting sighed violently when she saw this, and the action of nodding showed that the facts were the facts, and there was no way to change them.
"And what about that document, where is that important document now?" Wei Tianwen's eyes and hands trembled, making it difficult to tell whether it was the action of asking for something, or the instinct that was still shown out of fear.
"This ......" Shen Mengting was speechless again, she knew that the document was not in her hands at the moment. After hesitating for a while, she decided to report the truth, "Report to His Majesty the King......!" Not in my hands!"
"Huh?" Wei Tianwen seemed to have heard something amazing, and his mouth seemed to open to the maximum, "Shen Mengting, what did you say?"
"Mengting, you said that the document is not in your hands, so where is it at the moment, why don't you carry such an important thing with you?" Lin Mingyuan's tone was a little accusatory.
"Well...... Shen Mengting lowered her head, and she was a little embarrassed at the moment. But when she quickly rolled her eyes, she returned to her usual sassy appearance, "No way! When I was about to arrive at Kiyose Castle, I had some trouble?"
"What's wrong with you?" Wei Tianwen asked with concern. He never blamed Shen Mengting for the fact that the documents were not in his hands. On the contrary, this king, who is above 10,000 people under one person, has always been very gentle when facing Shen Mengting.
Shen Mengting sighed loudly, and she told all the encounters before she was about to arrive in Qingse City.
"Oh, I see, they actually sent pursuers?" Lin Mingyuan nodded and read the words.
"That's right! It's the chasing soldiers! Anyway, along the way, I've had a lot of dealings with these chasing soldiers!" Shen Mengting made another deputy respectful statement of the matter.
"Are those pursuers very powerful?"
"Yes! Very good! One of the leaders is ......."
Shen Mengting seemed to have something unspeakable, Wei Tianwen saw this, and he also used his upturned palm to tell the words 'but it doesn't hurt to say'.
Shen Mengting slowly lowered her eyes when she heard this, "They are all powerful characters above the expert level, and one of the leaders is ...... Zhang Zhijie!"
When the name 'Zhang Zhijie' was released, there was a burst of surprise.
"Huh, Zhang Zhijie?" Lin Mingyuan's eyes were slowly narrowing, and his gaze was extremely sharp, "You said that Zhang Zhijie, can't he be that traitor, right?" I remember that he seems to be ...... Yang Jiening's apprentice!"
"That's right! it's him! He's now a complete lackey of the Sauron Empire!" Shen Mengting's tone was very excited, the name 'Zhang Zhijie' was enough to draw out all her anger.
"Shen Mengting, what happened to you? You just said that you went to the border to meet Uncle Yang Jiening, so where is he now? Why didn't I see him!" In the process of speaking, Wei Tianwen did not forget to look at the entrance of the palace.
"Ah! Yes, where is Yang Jiening? He is the core figure of the whole thing! As long as he shows up, all the problems can be explained!" Lin Mingyuan, the regent, seemed to have a kind of thing to do, and it was just a gesture of slamming his palm with his fist.
Shen Mengting didn't know how to reply, she only felt a stream of heat emanating from her chest, and it reached her head at an extremely fast speed. It wasn't long before her eye sockets were affected, causing a slight sparkle to seep out of them.
"What's wrong?" Wei Tianwen bit his lip in surprise, he and Shen Mengting's eyes that were currently shining were firmly connected.
"This ...... This ......" Shen Mengting's eyes drooped, and she didn't continue to look at her king, "he ...... Can't come, never!"
"Hmm, Mengting, what's going on? Yang Jiening, has something happened to him?"
The atmosphere in the palace seems to be moving closer to silence, and the few conversations interspersed with it seem to be full of echoes.
He ...... He has already ......" Shen Mengting's falling eyes seemed to have a pulling force, and pulled his head down by the way. Then, she let out another rapid sob, "It's dead!"
The information that Yang Jiening is dead is really like the kind of lightning that suddenly thundered out in the silent night. Almost in an instant, the surrounding environment was boiled to the extreme.
"Huh......? You say......" Lin Mingyuan's whole body began to tremble, and his legs also felt like they were about to go soft and fall, "Mengting......!
"Yes, Uncle Yang Jiening, he is dead, he sacrificed his life for the country!" Shen Mengting's face was full of sorrow, and her lips were pursed tightly.
After getting the official confirmation information, Lin Mingyuan was about to fall completely. I saw that his body was trembling uncontrollably, and his steps were retreating in a messy manner.
The other three regents were looking at each other. They were just staring at each other, but most of them were skeptical.
"Shen Mengting, you said Uncle Yang Jiening, he has already ......" asked again and again, but Wei Tianwen also knew that this was a lot of questions. However, he still couldn't accept this information somewhat, "No! Uncle Yang Jiening is so strong, he is ...... He's the most powerful magician in the human race......!
"He was besieged by many masters of the Sauron Empire, which led to such a tragic end!" Shen Mengting's lips tightened, because she knew that if she didn't hold her back tightly, she might lose control of her emotions.
"Mengting, what was the situation at that time?Did you meet Yang Jiening?" Lin Mingyuan came over again. This regent is very experienced, and a second ago he was still immersed in the pain of losing his friend, but in the blink of an eye, he regained his sanity, hoping to make things clearer.
"I didn't meet Uncle Yang Jiening from beginning to end, I just went to the border to wait for him. But I didn't wait!......"
Shen Mengting began to tell the story of what happened at that time.
