The tragic battle east of Heian Castle spread quickly among the major forces, although the imperial court deliberately suppressed the actual situation of the war.

But this incident is really too big, General Qin, the commander of the forbidden army, was killed in battle, and the second way pursuit force was wiped out, which is really a bit appalling.

But everyone also heard that the Imperial Forest Army was engaged in a fierce battle with a mysterious force in the open land east of Heian Castle, which could not help but arouse people's suspicion and deep thought

You must know that General Qin is an absolute master of eighth-order cultivation, and the thousands of royal forest guards are the elite of the elite, such a combat power is almost unshakable in the territory of the dynasty.

Unless it is a large-scale army, but the second-way pursuit force is the palace forbidden army, how can there be any army in the territory of the dynasty that will attack its own people

Buddhism has a deep heritage, but it has always served the emperor, so there is no reason to conflict with the two-way pursuit army, and the rest is the major factions of martial arts.

But a discerning person will know as long as he thinks about it, the most unlikely thing about this matter is that the major factions did it, not to mention the current martial arts entering the WTO to support the royal family, there is an alliance between the two, and they have no reason to do anything to the army of the imperial court.

What's more, although the masters among the big factions are like clouds and are not afraid of the power of the imperial court, even if the general big faction raises the strength of one faction, it does not have the strength to completely annihilate the two ways to chase and kill the troops.

At last...... There is only one force left to arouse suspicion,

…… Huashan School, the first sword gate in China,

Whether it is the imperial court or the martial arts, they all know that the murderer who poisoned King Han, the son of the traitor Win Wuxian has a lot to do with the Huashan faction, he is the personal disciple of the Huashan sword spirit Fang Qinghui,

At the beginning of the emperor's revelation to the world, the Huashan faction was passionate and openly resisted the emperor's resolution, and the head Gao Yun was even more passionate, satirizing the mediocrity of the court.

Now that the palace forbidden army clashed with the mysterious forces in the process of pursuing Ling Cang, and the whole army was annihilated, everyone's suspicious eyes were inevitably on the Huashan faction.

The Huashan faction is the most special existence in the martial arts, sitting firmly in the first sword sect in China for decades, and the sword cultivation sect is even more regarded as a sect, which can be described as far-reaching.

And...... In the territory of the dynasty, the Huashan faction was the only powerful force outside the army and Buddhism that had the strength to annihilate thousands of palace forbidden troops and kill the eighth-order sword cultivator Qin general.

As the first sword gate in Huaxia, not to mention its own profound heritage, Fang Qinghui, the sword spirit of Huashan, is the only supreme powerhouse with ninth-order cultivation on the face of Huaxia today.

It is not difficult for them to deal with the second-way pursuit and killing troops at all, and the palace forbidden army and the eighth-order master will not be able to get on the stage at all in the eyes of such a strong man.

However, as soon as this incident came out, in the face of everyone's suspicions, the Huashan faction stood up for the first time to make it clear that they had nothing to do with the battle east of Ping'an City.

They did not rescue their disciple Ling Cang, and they did not send people to fight the second-way pursuit troops of the imperial court.

In this way, the bizarre battle east of Heian Castle lost its direction and became more foggy.

…………

"Ridiculous, the palace forbidden army was wiped out on your own territory, and you actually told me that I don't know who did it, what is the use of the court raising your rice buckets",

On the Xuanzheng Palace, Emperor Long Yan was furious and angrily reprimanded His Royal Highness's ministers,

The civil and military officials could feel the king's anger from afar, and they lowered their heads one by one, not daring to look directly at the emperor, and the prime minister Yang Guan stood in front of the ministers.

In the discussion about the winner's incident, he still held the same attitude as before, silent, and stayed outside the court.

The three kings frowned, their faces were ugly, this incident was really strange, thousands of palace forbidden troops were wiped out on the court's own territory, and General Qin, the commander of the forbidden army, was killed.

This kind of thing is simply appalling, and they don't have any clue for a while.

After some angry reprimands, the emperor sat back on the dragon chair, he put his fists on his head, his eyes were closed, and his face was a little tired.

After a moment of silence, he looked at His Highness's ministers and asked weakly,

"Is there any other military intelligence report on the side of Shangyang County, apart from the battle situation east of Ping'an City, do they have any other discoveries?"

Taiwei thought for a few seconds and then hugged his fist at the emperor,

"Report to the emperor, the corpses of General Qin and the palace forbidden army were found in the open area east of Qiancheng, according to the military information from Shangyang, there are traces of large-scale military clashes there, in addition, there are hundreds of corpses of mysterious forces, the enemy is all dressed in civilian clothes, and it is impossible to identify the enemy through clothing",

The captain coordinated the military affairs of various places, and after hearing the emperor's inquiry, he immediately reported the news from Shangyang County to the emperor.

The emperor was displeased, his face was a little irritable, and the enemy soldiers were dressed in civilian clothes and could not distinguish their identities, which meant that the imperial court could not judge who was in conflict with the palace forbidden army.

The second way pursuit and killing troops were all wiped out, but the court was now confused, and he didn't even know who the enemy was, the emperor was silent for a moment, and finally sighed, looked at His Highness's ministers and said slowly,

"Zhongqingjia, do you have any opinion on this matter?"

The emperor's tone was weak, his eyes were a little tired, he had no clue about this incident so far, he could only hope that he would be above the court and listen to the opinions of the civil and military officials,

A young soldier hesitated for a moment, and then randomly stood up and cautiously hugged his fist at the emperor,

"Emperor, the land of Zhongzhou borders the western border, and there are many disputes between the western tribes and the border of our dynasty.

The precedent of the raid on the eastern capital of Luoyang, Xirong sent a small force to attack the eastern capital as a feint, the real purpose was to divert the tiger from the mountain, lead the defenders of the Tiger Pass to help, and then the whole army dispatched to capture the border town of the Tiger Pass in one fell swoop.

Fortunately, at that time, the defenders of Tiger Prison Pass saw through Xirong's plan and severely damaged the soldiers, which prevented the further spread of the war.

Therefore, the minister suspects that the conflict with General Qin and the second-way pursuit troops may be the Yi troops who infiltrated the border of our DPRK, and Xirong has always been eyeing our dynasty, and this time the battle situation of Ping'an City is likely to be the barbarian thief's heart is not dead, and he intends to make a comeback, and just happened to encounter the palace forbidden army who went to Zhongzhou to carry out the wanted mission, and there was a fierce battle, which finally caused the end of the battle situation in which the second route pursuit and killing troops were wiped out."

The soldier said with a convincing analysis, but as soon as he finished speaking, a voice of rebuttal sounded above the court, and the captain sighed lightly and shook his head, looked at the latter and shook his head slowly,

"Although Xirong has the possibility of infiltrating the territory of our court, it is absolutely impossible for the Xirong troops to have a fierce battle with the palace forbidden army, not to mention that Xirong has no motive to run to a projectile place with no strategic value like Ping'an City, not to mention that the east of Qiancheng is separated by the Tiger Prison Pass, the Eastern Capital, and the three big cities of Shangyang, and it is impossible for the Xirong troops to bypass the defense line hundreds of miles deep and run here."

The lieutenant coordinated the military affairs of the whole country and was experienced, and immediately denied the statement of the military department, whose analysis seemed to be the first to be the way, but in fact it was divorced from the actual situation on the battlefield, and it was just a set of logical and self-consistent theories.

It is impossible for the Xirong army to sneak into the Qiancheng area hundreds of miles deep, even if a small force really infiltrates the territory of the dynasty, it is impossible to pose a threat to the palace forbidden army of the eighth-order cultivator, and it is even more impossible to completely annihilate the second-way pursuit and killing troops, and the emperor is naturally well aware of this.

The young military officer lacked experience in battlefield judgment, and the emperor's eyes showed a little disappointment, so he directly skipped the secondment of the military department, looked at His Royal Highness's ministers and continued to ask,

"Do you have any other opinions?"

As soon as the emperor's voice fell, there was a sudden silence under the hall, and the ministers bowed their heads and said nothing, this incident was really bizarre,

The emperor and the Taiwei just vetoed the possibility of a conflict between the palace forbidden army and the foreign enemy army, so the fierce battle with the palace forbidden army can only be the forces within the dynasty.

But the ministers couldn't figure out which force would clash with the palace forbidden army in their own territory, and which force could wipe out the second-way pursuit force like General Qin, who was in charge of the eighth-order sword cultivator.

Looking at the whole territory of the dynasty, in addition to Buddhism, which has the strength to compete with the two-way pursuit and killing troops, it is the major factions of martial arts, but Buddhism has been serving the emperor since the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty.

The major factions of the martial arts have already expressed their support for the royal family, how could they clash with the palace forbidden army for no reason, the ministers did not say a word, and the atmosphere of the hall became a little depressing for a while.

was silent for a long time, and finally under the hint of King Ya, King Yi stood up and hugged his fist at the emperor,

"Qiqi's father and emperor, his sons suspect that the annihilation of the second-way pursuit force is related to the Huashan faction",
