Chapter 537: Two Kings
After seeing the monsters surrounded by light in the middle, an exclamation suddenly came from among the officials, "Look at the nails, is this a person or a ghost?" β
Wang Er on the side buried his head in his chest, of course he knew what he had invited to assassinate Chu Nian, but he didn't expect Chu Nian to really dare to bring these things to the table, but now it was even more troublesome. Fastest updateββ
As the wails of the monsters almost pierced the eardrums of the adults present, everyone blocked their ears for a long time to feel at ease, Chu Nian glanced sideways at Wang Er, who was almost about to bury himself in the cracks of the ground, before he stepped forward and walked in front of those monsters, his body suddenly stood still, and his eyes were as calm as water.
The wails of the monsters gradually subsided a little, and the hall finally returned to calm, and then, the discussion of the Chinese martial arts officials in the hall was everywhere, and some people boldly took a few steps forward and looked down at the monsters who were trembling surrounded by a group of light sources.
"Shhh...... It's weird-looking...... Person? β
Chu Nian looked at Wang Er with a meaningful gaze, "This is a long story. β
"This monster is because of the cultivation of an evil art, it has become such a non-human and non-ghost appearance, but their force is extremely strong, if it weren't for the courtiers to take measures to deal with it in advance, they would not be captured so easily, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the courtiers will die at the hands of the monster."
Chu Nian looked at Wang Er with a smile, "And this group of monsters assassinating courtiers is a capital crime, isn't it?" Lord Wang? β
Wang Er was sweating profusely by this gaze, but he still quibbled: "Why does the county lord say that this matter was done by Wei Chen?" Just the gossip of these assassins? Weichen persuaded the county lord to slander the court officials, which is also a capital crime! β
There was a whisper from the side, Wang Er pretended not to hear it, Chu Nian smiled slightly: "These monsters are terrifying, ordinary people will be afraid when they see them, but since they were released, the courtiers have not seen the slightest fear in Lord Wang." β
Wang Er's figure trembled, and he saw that the King of Huainan in front of him was not afraid of big things: "That's true, I've never seen such a monster, and it's normal to be afraid when I see such an ugly 'person' for the first time, but Wang Er's Lord didn't even have a trace of surprise......"
He touched his chin and squinted his eyes to look at Wang Er, Wang Er suddenly became more and more frightened, and stumbled and said, "Who said I wasn't afraid, I actually ......"
Chu Nian didn't plan to continue to entangle this matter with him, she turned her eyes to look at the emperor above and said, "Emperor Qiqi, it is better for the emperor to personally interrogate these 'monsters' today, so as to prove to all the adults that the courtiers have not wronged Lord Wang in vain!" β
As soon as these words came out, the whispers in the hall were endless, "I seem to have heard of this monster, it is said to be a cult that suddenly arose among the people, but I heard that it is quite low-key......
"Those who have practiced evil art have become like this, why do they still cultivate?"
"Maybe it's for the sake of force......
"But what are they going to do with so much force?"
Chu Nian was very satisfied with the effect of the harvest now, she originally planned to wake up the courtiers who were comfortable and let them understand how much danger Da Liang was facing now, whether it was Qinghe or the Yin-Yang God Sect, this world had long been unable to allow them to watch the battle between the prince and the Wang family with peace of mind, and it was time for this senseless infighting to come to an end.
And now that these monsters have appeared in front of the courtiers, they are not afraid that the courtiers will still be indifferent to this matter.
The emperor at the top frowned and looked at the monsters surrounded by light, and after a while, he looked at Chu Nian with a pale face, "This ...... How is it interrogated? β
Chu Nian smiled, waved his hand slightly towards the group of royal guards who were guarding the monsters, and saw that the refractive bronze mirrors around the monsters had all been removed, and the monsters seemed to be able to breathe a sigh of relief, and the pair of strange pupils that stood out looked at Chu Nian one after another, and the pleading meaning in their eyes was even worse.
Ran Chu Nian didn't want to respond to them, she turned her eyes to look at the emperor and nodded slightly.
The emperor gave her a suspicious look, and then frowned and looked at the strange monsters in the next life.
"I ask you, but you were sent to assassinate the Peerless County Lord?"
The monsters below gasped, as if they had been insulted, God knows, since they cultivated the Yin Scroll, they have not been so down-and-out to be watched by ordinary people, but they can't resist, the woman who tortured them all night is still standing here, at this moment, this group of monsters who were not afraid of heaven and earth don't even dare to breathe more.
Then one of them responded in a trembling voice: "Yes......"
"Then who sent you to assassinate the Peerless County Lord?"
"Yes...... Someone gave us a sum of money and asked us to carry Chu Nian's ......" Touching Chu Nian's gaze, the monster's body trembled suddenly, and he hurriedly continued: "Someone asked us to kill the Wushuang County Lord. β
"You don't know who it is?"
"It's our leader who has taken over the task, and it is said that the client is a big man surnamed Wang."
The ministers discussed a lot, and the emperor at the top also squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Er, Wang Er's body trembled suddenly, and he hurriedly defended: "Impossible, there are many people surnamed Wang, not necessarily Weichen, Emperor, this ......"
Chu Nian looked sideways at the monster who was talking slightly, and saw that the monster's face was distorted for a moment, interrupting Wang Er's words and saying, "If this Lord Wang is the head of the royal family in the court, then he should be right." β
Two beads of sweat the size of beans on Wang Er's forehead slipped down, and in the face of the inquiring gaze of the ministers, his face became more and more flustered, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to refute, but at this moment, a hoarse voice sounded outside the hall: "The head of the Wang family? Are you talking about the Prime Minister? Where is the Prime Minister now? β
Chu Nian frowned slightly, knowing that Dark Rin would definitely intervene, but he didn't expect him to come so quickly, it seems that the idea of wanting to peel off a layer of flesh and skin of the Wang family today has come to naught.
The silver figure calmly walked into the Jinluan Palace, Wang Er suddenly looked at him for help as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and secretly leaned slightly towards the emperor above.
"Wechen is late, the emperor forgives the sin."
The emperor's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't speak, Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Dark Rin, "The National Teacher came just in time, the courtiers are introducing the new friends that the Second Lord Wang sent to me, I ask the National Teacher to be well-informed, I wonder if the National Teacher has seen these monsters?" β
With Chu Nian's words, Dark Rin looked sideways slightly, seeing a group of monsters lying on the ground, a moment of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he shook his head lightly with a pretended doubt, "I've seen ugly people, but I've never seen such ugly people." β
The monsters below widened their eyes and looked at Dark Rin's face, those eyes were a little familiar, and a touch of clarity flashed in Chu Nian's eyes, it seems that what Ming Xiu said in the letter is right, Dark Rin does have some connection with this Yin Yang God Sect, but the depth of this connection, she has no way of knowing.
However, for now, Dark Rin has to pretend that he doesn't know these monsters.
There are also many discussions in the palace, but the focus of this discussion has changed to dark Rin, Dark Rin does not go to court all year round, and the first court must be for the affairs of the royal family, and now it suddenly appears, and I think I came to save Wang Er.
As if sensing Chu Nian's suspicious look, he smiled undeniably, and then looked at the emperor above and said: "Your Majesty, according to what the ministers have seen, this Lord Wang is not Lord Wang, after all, if there is any Lord Wang who has an enmity with the county lord, it is only Lord Wang, the prime minister." β
As soon as Dark Rin said this, everyone in the hall also felt that it made a little sense, after all, judging from the timidity and fear of the style of this Lord Wang now, it is not like a person who dares to fight against Chu Nian with the huge family business of the Wang family, if it is the previous Lord Wang, there is really such a possibility, after all, the hostile relationship between the Lord Wang and the Wushuang County Lord back then can be said to be well known.
Wang Er breathed a sigh of relief, and saw King Huainan said coolly: "Then since the Prime Minister is still alive, why doesn't he return to the dynasty to enjoy the glory and wealth?" After all, for the sake of this Lord Wang, the post of prime minister is still vacant. β
The King of Huainan has always been silent, a blockbuster, this is to the point, and suddenly many officials also nodded in agreement, Wang Zixuan's power in this court before his disappearance was above 10,000 people under one person, since he wants to find Chu Nian's revenge, why not simply return to the court, so isn't it more convenient? Instead, he went to find these monsters to cooperate and kill Chu Nian, but didn't Chu Nian still stand here in a good manner?
As King Huainan spoke, Wang Er's heart rose to his throat again, and he looked at the dark Rin as if he asked for help, until he saw the calm smile on his delicate face, and his face soothed a little.
Then he saw the dark rin speak, "Maybe the prime minister still has something unspeakable that he can't return to the court?" β
Chu Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at Wang Er sideways, a pair of watery eyes flashed slightly, this stall, Yu Guang seemed to notice a gaze on her side, she turned her eyes, and was facing the pair of strange pupils with a little provocation faintly written on it.
She tugged at the corners of her mouth slightly, and suddenly her eyes lit up, since he wanted to protect Wang Er, let him protect it, but if you have gains, you must lose something...... Chu Nian smiled lightly with half-lowered eyes, "There is also this possibility, but since he is still alive but does not return to the dynasty, Lord Wang can be regarded as dereliction of duty?" β
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the palace, and Chen Lao took the lead in nodding and echoing: "That's true, Lord Wang has been missing for two years, if he is still alive but does not return to the dynasty, but first thinks about assassinating the Wushuang County Lord, it can really be regarded as a dereliction of duty." β
"No, we still have a place for him here, but he's a wild one." The king of Huainan said: "The prime ministers of a country are like this, how do others think of me Da Liang?" According to what this king sees, it is better to simply abandon the position of prime minister, which can be regarded as regaining some face for our Daliang court. β
The weight of these two people's words has always been very heavy in the court, and at this moment, the two-pronged approach can be seen in general, and there is no need for Chu Nian to continue to fan the flames, so he saw several officials under him take the lead in echoing and said: "That's true, if Lord Wang returns, he should still be guilty, and the post of prime minister will be ......."
"Wouldn't it be better to find someone to go up again? Why bother? β
"But the post of prime minister has been vacant for so long, and there has been no chaos in the DPRK, this ......"
