Chapter 246: Confrontation
Just as he was between the "demon road" and the snake, there was another sound of talking outside the door.
"Overseer."
"Overseer."
Seeing Cao Zhengchun who came from the inspection, the eunuchs and palace maids guarding the door bowed down one after another.
"Hmm."
Cao Zhengchun bowed slightly, and then asked in a deep voice:
"Nothing happened, did it?"
The leading eunuch said:
"Lord Governor, Your Majesty has been resting for a long time today, and there is nothing abnormal, just ......"
"Don't babble, just say something!"
Cao Zhengchun raised his eyebrows and urged.
Originally, as the head of the eunuch, I knew that it was best not to get to the bottom of some things, especially some private matters of the emperor, and not to ask if I shouldn't ask.
But this is no longer the case.
As the governor of Dongchang and the chief eunuch, Cao Zhengchun can be said to be in power leaning towards the government and the opposition, and even the safety of the palace is also in charge of him, which shows the emperor's trust in him.
However, just three months ago, the Queen Mother was kidnapped from the palace, and no matter what the cause was, he could not escape the blame, especially since the Queen Mother is still missing, and the situation is even worse.
Originally, although Cao Zhengchun was in power, the voices against him in the government and the opposition have never stopped, especially after the disappearance of the Queen Mother, the impeachment of him is like a snowflake.
What's even worse is that Cao Zhengchun can clearly feel that His Majesty's favor for him seems to be showing signs of fading.
Therefore, he really didn't want to go any further.
Under Cao Zhengchun's forced gaze, the leading eunuch explained:
"Your Majesty seems to have had a nightmare just now."
Nightmare?
Cao Zhengchun's heart tightened.
If it's an ordinary person, having a nightmare or something once in a while is nothing at all.
But the emperor is a different creature, and the bad mood is secondary, and for those emperors who are deep-minded, suspicious by nature, and like to think about everything in various places, it is really impossible to say what kind of effect a nightmare will have.
The talent is roughly like Han Wu, isn't it because of a nightmare that he has made a witch curse like a stain on his life?
Cao Zhengchun, who knew the truth that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, hurriedly moved to his ears to listen to the movements in the palace.
However, this hearing made Cao Zhengchun's heart miss a beat.
Because he actually heard that Emperor Zhengde was talking in the palace!
Cao Zhengchun's eyes flashed slightly, staring at the eunuchs in front of him:
"Are you sure there's no one else in the house?"
The eunuchs and palace maids looked at each other strangely, but they all said with certainty:
"We've been guarding the door, and no one has really gone in."
Cao Zhengchun's face sank like water, if he was just the leading eunuch, he might have been bribed by others, but everyone was so sure that it was obviously not a lie.
After hesitating for a moment, Cao Zhengchun still walked to the door and knocked lightly:
"Saint?"
Hearing Cao Zhengchun's knock on the door, Zhu Houzhao's eyes flashed with excitement.
However, the lesson of the previous car is still there, and he did not dare to act rashly in the slightest, and he didn't even dare to make a move to ask for help before, for fear of stimulating the other party, so he gave him another sword.
However, Su Hang's reaction was completely unexpected by Zhu Houzhao.
"Cao Zhengchun? Come on in. ”
In Zhu Houzhao's surprised gaze, Su Hang actually opened his mouth directly and beckoned Cao Zhengchun to come in.
This?!
Cao Zhengchun and Zhu ignored them, which were the two cards that Zhu Houzhao relied on the most at this time, but seeing Su Hang's fearless attitude, he had a bad premonition.
"Who?!"
Hearing an unfamiliar voice from the palace, Cao Zhengchun was immediately startled, and immediately pushed the door and rushed in.
"Who are you? Why did you appear in His Majesty's chamber late at night?! ”
Seeing Su Hang, who was standing quietly in front of Zhu Houzhao with his hands behind his back, with a master's breath, Cao Zhengchun's pupils shrank sharply.
Master!
Not only Su Hang's calm posture, but also because of the integrated aura of the other party's body, unless the internal cultivation reached a certain realm, it was impossible to completely hide his perception just by relying on a thin layer of wooden doors.
Based on this alone, the other party is by no means mediocre.
Fortunately, what made Cao Zhengchun feel a little relieved was that although Zhu Houzhao's face was a little pale, he didn't look like he had been hurt by his breath.
If he makes any more mistakes, his position will really not be preserved.
Once he loses the emperor's favor, what will happen to him, Cao Zhengchun can be said to know it.
Under Cao Zhengchun's gaze, Su Hang smiled slightly and said:
"The people of the poor mountains and wilderness have come to ask Your Majesty for some mundane things."
"People in the mountains and wilderness should also understand some etiquette, ask for treasures, and come respectfully, how can there be a reason to come in the middle of the night without telling them?"
Cao Zhengchun didn't want to talk nonsense with Su Hang, so he immediately stepped out, and he had to capture Su Hang first.
However, just as Cao Zhengchun stepped out, Su Hang also gently moved half a step to the left.
Cao Zhengchun's face changed, and the posture that was originally about to rush forward instantly stopped because of Su Hang's indiscretable half-step.
Although Su Hang's half-step was extremely obscure, even in the eyes of ordinary people like Zhu Houzhao, who were completely ignorant of martial arts, he didn't notice Su Hang's actions at all.
However, in the eyes of masters like Cao Zhengchun, the target of Su Hang's half-step was not him at all, but Emperor Zhengde not far away.
The meaning of the warning is self-evident.
The distance between Su Hang and Emperor Zhengde is only one foot, no matter how confident Cao Zhengchun is, no matter how clever his light skills are, it is impossible to save Emperor Zhengde before Su Hang makes a move.
"Bold thief!"
Cao Zhengchun shouted angrily, although his body stopped, the movements in his hands did not stop, and with a sudden push of his hands, the fierce Tiangang vitality pressed towards Su Hang.
The speed of true qi is naturally much faster than that of people, and it is pressed in front of Su Hang in the blink of an eye.
Cao Zhengchun thought to himself, that is, the iron gallant god Hou Zhu ignored it, and in the face of his unreserved Tiangang vitality, he must also take it seriously.
When the time comes, he will be able to take advantage of Su Hang's unintentional care to save the emperor.
However, what Cao Zhengchun didn't expect at all was that in the face of his extremely fierce Tiangang vitality, Su Hang was still holding his hands behind his back, and his expression was indifferent.
Megalomaniacal guys!
There was a sneer on the corner of Cao Zhengchun's mouth, his Tiangang vitality was an inch thick of 100 refined steel, and it could be easily shattered, not to mention Su Hang's flesh and blood?
"Even if you are cultivating the Vajra Immortal Skill, if you dare to take my Tiangang Vitality like this, you are looking for death!"
However, soon, Cao Zhengchun's sneer froze on his face.
Because in the imagination, the scene where Su Hang was torn apart by Tiangang's vitality did not happen, but his extremely fierce Tiangang vitality was like a mud cow entering the sea after hitting Su Hang's body, and it was completely silent.
