Chapter 760: Scapegoat
The enemy was very red when he saw him.
From the moment Xiongba saw Prime Minister Zhang Cheng, his expression changed instantly!
From the calm and calm just now to full of anger.
Zhuang Jian couldn't help frowning, knowing that what would happen next would be a battle of trapped beasts.
He has endless resentment towards Prime Minister Zhang, and he vows not to give up if he is not eradicated, and he is so domineering and raises a peerless sword.
"You're finally giving up!!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiongba rushed forward with his sword in hand, and no one could stop him.
Even if some soldiers were very bold, it was a pity that when they couldn't get close, they were instantly repelled by the demonic aura emitted by the hero.
Prime Minister Zhang watched Xiongba rush towards him, and was so frightened that he hurriedly hid in the crowd, where did he dare to turn back.
Zhuang Jian saw that things were not good, so he naturally couldn't wait any longer, and jumped into the battlefield with Ah Qing.
The decisive battle between Li Mubai and Chu Zhaonan on the other side was also forced to be suspended, and the two had already seen the strength exuded by Xiongba.
Chu Zhaonan was also shocked.
Although I know that the power of the hero is very strong, it is really confirmed when I see it today.
"There is such a mysterious sword technique in the world!"
Since the nameless disappearance, he has never seen such super strength, and Chu Zhaonan has no intention of fighting again.
The Void Emperor immediately jumped into the crowd with a move, and several of them disappeared, because the crowd was chaotic and couldn't tell the difference between me.
Everyone was so frightened that they all began to rush towards the door, Zhuang Jian originally wanted to stop it, but Xiongba Shan couldn't do it.
for the people were frightened and scattered.
No matter where they were, Zhuang Jian and Ah Qing were blocked by the crowd.
"Get out of the way!!"
No matter how Zhuang Jian shouted, it had no effect.
Who dares to fight him for the sake of his life.
Xiongba chased and killed Prime Minister Zhang again, but after a few turns, he had lost his trace.
Zhang Cheng is of course more familiar than him with the inner courtyard of the palace.
No matter how powerful the tyrant is, it doesn't work.
At this time, the Imperial Guards heard the sound and rushed from afar.
"Male Gang Master, let's go!!"
Originally, Xiongba wanted to continue to chase and kill Chu Zhaonan, so he hurriedly stopped him.
Seeing that the Imperial Forest Army had appeared, a large group of men and horses were coming.
No matter how strong the two of them are, it is impossible to fight against thousands of troops, and it is the right way to flee now.
Even if Xiongba is so angry, there is no way.
With the kung fu of the two of them, of course, these soldiers couldn't let them rush all the way out of the imperial city gate
When Zhuang Jian chased after him, the battle had come to an end.
There are no more enemies to be found.
Standing in place and looking at the dead soldiers, I felt quite unbearable, but there was no way to stop it.
Tonight's harvest is not bad, they took the opportunity to kill the most hateful blue-eyed fox, which can be regarded as a great harm to the rivers and lakes.
So they didn't hurt their vitality, but they got what they wanted, and everyone didn't say anything after looking at each other.
"Brother Li, tonight you will eliminate the harm of the rivers and lakes, of course, you have to take the first credit!"
Zhuang Jian praised Li Mubai.
However, there was loneliness in Li Mubai's eyes.
Competing with Chu Zhaonan's Dragon Sword, he did not have any upper hand, and originally thought that his swordsmanship was invincible in the world.
But there is still a big gap between him and him, and of course I feel a little uncomfortable.
Prime Minister Zhang Cheng has found the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the assassins have all been eliminated by us, and they have escaped from the palace."
The emperor's expression was quite angry, how could his heavenly power allow others to offend.
"What the hell is going on? Why did the Assassin appear near the Cold Palace!!"
Prime Minister Zhang Cheng's reaction was extremely fast, and as soon as his eyes turned, he immediately lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty doesn't need to be angry This time I already know, it turned out that Zhuang Jian caused trouble, and he caused trouble in the rivers and lakes, and he and Li Mubai are still there tonight
A girl named Ah Qing came to report to you, who would have thought that the enemy would find out her whereabouts, so she chased them all the way here."
The emperor was a little surprised when he heard this, Zhuang Jian came to visit late at night, what is the so-called matter?
"I heard that it was for Xiao Feng to intercede, and I don't know where to get the news, Xiao Feng didn't finish solving Yan Honglie, he felt that you would deal with him, so he reluctantly chose to visit late at night, I hope you can open up and let Xiao Feng go."
Prime Minister Zhang's reasons seemed reasonable and logical, and the emperor was even more angry.
"Bring Zhuang Jian and the others to me immediately, I will ask in person!"
At this time, Zhuang Jian didn't know that so many things had happened, and they were also looking for the whereabouts of Prime Minister Zhang Cheng, and they had never seen him since they saw him in the battle just now.
I am also afraid that Prime Minister Zhang Cheng will be in danger, after all, the two are brothers.
When he was still looking for his whereabouts, he suddenly dealt with many soldiers from the front.
"Take them down!"
The leading general shouted Zhuang Jian, a little surprised, I don't know what happened.
They are not enemies, but his attitude of asking is quite strong, Zhuang Jian didn't figure it out, what happened hurriedly pushed back two steps, and Ah Qing and Li Mubai also blocked in front of him.
"What are you doing? We are not enemies."
"The emperor has decreed that you will be taken down!"
Zhuang Jian hurried over and asked everyone not to have a dispute, he also understood that the emperor didn't know what was going on, and it was reasonable to mistake them for enemies.
"Don't worry, you and I will go to meet Your Majesty."
Seeing that he was more cooperative, everyone didn't move roughly, and took the three of them all the way to the main hall.
At this time, Prime Minister Zhang Cheng was standing not far away, looking at Zhuang Jian and the others without speaking.
The emperor sat high on the dragon chair and stared at the figures of the three people.
They hurriedly knelt down and saluted the emperor.
"Zhuang Jian, you are so bold, you actually brought trouble here!"
Zhuang Jian, who didn't understand the situation, hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this matter is indeed to blame me, I have irreconcilable contradictions with the Tyrant Wyvern, and this matter is indeed blamed on me for bringing the danger here, I am very sorry."
The emperor's face turned pale, since Zhuang Jian had already admitted the facts, it couldn't be more obvious.
"You are my general, and you have actually brought the battle of the rivers and lakes here, and you have gone too far!"
"And your sworn brother Xiao Feng disobeyed orders, and chose to retreat without my order, how do you explain this matter!"
Zhuang Jian was suddenly a little anxious, and sweat was already dripping down.
If the emperor wants to deal with Xiao Feng, I'm afraid there will be no way for him to live.
No matter how powerful Kung Fu is, it is impossible to solve the problem.
He was a little melancholy now, but he could still persevere, and after thinking for a while, he immediately said: "Your Majesty really blames my eldest brother for this, he didn't communicate with you in advance, but he can't be completely blamed, because the grain and grass can't keep up, in order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, so he will immediately choose to come back, first report the situation to you, please don't be angry."
Zhuang Jian was still trying his best to help Xiao Feng explain, but the emperor's face was getting more and more ugly, as if he didn't want to listen to him say these words.
"I really doubt your faithfulness to me right now!"
Prime Minister Zhang Cheng stood to the side, not saying a word, and Li Mubai and A Qing also stood there, not knowing what to say.
Zhuang Jian threw a look at Prime Minister Zhang Cheng for help, hoping that he could stand up and help explain.
But this guy actually turned a blind eye and had a cold attitude.
Zhuang Jian was a little confused.
According to reason, the two should be brothers, how can he see death and not save him.
Zhuang Jian couldn't help but feel that something seemed to be wrong.
But after all, he still couldn't figure out what was wrong, so he could only stand there motionless.
Listening to the emperor's inquiry about him, he was also anxious.
I didn't expect to get myself into such a big trouble.
But Zhuang Jian was not nervous at all, because he knew that this matter had nothing to do with him, and it was not what he did.
"Zhuang Jian, what are you doing here tonight?"
The emperor asked with a sneer.
Of course, Zhuang Jian was a little confused about the situation, thinking that he hadn't already informed him of the situation, and he hadn't come to ask for trouble.
I don't know why the emperor asks like this again.
Could it be that there is a hidden secret in it?
He is also looking for a reason, if he talks about the matter of the cold palace, I am afraid it will be very unfavorable, and this matter must be cautious.
Zhuang Jian looked a little hesitant.
He has not yet found a suitable reason.
"Zhuang Jian, if I'm not mistaken, you should be here for the ethereal treasure of the cold palace!"
Zhuang Jian raised his head violently, not knowing why the emperor knew about this, and couldn't help but look at Prime Minister Zhang.
Because the person who knows about this is Prime Minister Zhang Cheng except himself, could it be that he betrayed himself?
Zhuang Jian suddenly felt that something was not right, the two were brothers.
But Prime Minister Zhang Cheng no longer looked at him, looking more indifferent.
It seems that this time it has nothing to do with him.
Ah Qing and Li Mubai's hearts also sank.
"If I said that you brought Xiongba and the others over, the two forces should cooperate to win the treasure, right?"
Zhuang Jian hurriedly explained, "It is absolutely impossible for me to have a common enmity with them, how can I cooperate with them? Your Majesty, you have wronged me!!"
Zhuang Jian didn't know what to say in order to solve the problem.
But all he could do now was shout so loudly.
I hope he'll take his word for it, but nothing he says now seems to be working.
"Prime Minister, you have something to say, this matter is a strategy that we have come up with together, how can you pretend not to know that this matter has nothing to do with us now, you should know and have been tracking the whereabouts of the flying dragon, I have made too many sacrifices for the sake of the rivers and lakes!"
But Prime Minister Zhang still didn't speak, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, and this indifferent attitude really made it impossible to predict what he was thinking.
Is it going to deliberately push Zhuang Jian to a dead end?
Ah Qing was also a little unbearable, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "The emperor has nothing to do with my brother in this matter, you must not wronged him!!"
The scene suddenly went a little wrong.
The emperor shouted, "Give me peace!!"
The guards around them also rushed up in a hurry, each holding a weapon to surround them, and if they dared to act lightly, they would definitely die on the spot.
Zhuang Jian also hurriedly asked everyone not to worry, everything could be explained clearly.
He was very confident, and he didn't do it anyway.
No matter how much the emperor doesn't believe it, there is no way to convict him.
Courage for that.
Ahem...
After a short silence, Prime Minister Zhang finally stood up, and what he wanted to say completely made Zhuang Jian hopeless.
"The emperor really doesn't know about this matter, it seems that Zhuang Jian is reckless."
What?!
Zhuang Jian and the three of them were all shocked Li Mubai, and looked at Prime Minister Zhang Cheng in disbelief, in his heart, this guy is not such a person, he should be able to understand the truth and his current attitude is really unacceptable, he actually opened his eyes and said nonsense!
"I already knew that you were such a bastard, and this matter had nothing to do with my brother in the first place, and you informed us."
Ah Qing's face turned red.
"I'm the prime minister, how can I become friends with reckless people."
"Everything I do is to avoid it."
This guy's reasons are high-sounding and righteous.
Knowing that he is the number one celebrity around the emperor, he loves him in every way, and he will believe it no matter what he says.
Zhuang Jian couldn't help laughing twice, knowing that he had become a scapegoat.
Such a big change happened in the imperial city, and of course Prime Minister Zhang Cheng could not escape his responsibility.
In order to avoid being implicated, he chose to betray Zhuang Jian!
