At the banquet, Cang Junming could always feel the emperor's gaze falling on him.

The sense of oppression that seems to be absent makes him feel like he is walking on the tip of a knife.

If there is any mistake, it will fall into a situation from which there is no return.

However, in this tense atmosphere, a palace man stepped forward quickly and explained a few words to the emperor, and the expression on the emperor's face changed in an instant.

"Hahaha...... I just got a piece of good news, that is, all those bandits who were in trouble with the rivers and lakes were exterminated by the king of the town just now! Good! Good! That's great news! The emperor was so excited that he immediately raised his glass and drank three cups.

Other people at the scene also echoed and expressed their happiness.

A place like Jianghu can be described as quite chaotic.

The imperial court used troops several times to set things right, but the results were ineffective.

Those people in the rivers and lakes beat and killed at every turn, ignoring the laws of imperial power.

Moreover, their martial arts are strong and fluid, and ordinary methods of control do not have much effect at all.

Therefore, these scourges have always been a headache for the imperial court.

Now that Cang Liyuan has gotten rid of these scattered Jianghu people who have no formal sects, it is naturally good news!

The atmosphere of the banquet was reinvigorated, and at this time people began to ask about the relevant details.

The emperor was happy when he told them.

"Speaking of which, it's thanks to Gu Jiuqing, the king of the town used her as bait, and the bandits from the rivers and lakes who were attracted came to kill Gu Jiuqing."

In this way, it is just the right time to take the opportunity to exterminate it in one fell swoop.

"From this point of view, then Gu Jiuqing can be regarded as a meritorious service!" Someone said casually.

Hearing this, the wine glass in the emperor's hand fell on the table with a "snap".

This light sound suddenly frightened the entire hall into silence.

Just when everyone was panicking, they heard the emperor laugh loudly: "That's right, it's indeed a meritorious service!" However, after all, she committed a serious crime, and the king of the town did not give her a chance to reform again, and directly killed her with a sword! What a gratifying blessing! Hahaha......"

Hearing this, Cang Junming's complexion sank in an instant.

Gu Jiuqing...... He's dead?!

At that moment, he only felt his brain roaring, and he didn't have a trace of consciousness for a long time.

The echoing laughter around him, as well as those flattering faces, seemed to form a bizarre picture in front of him.

He subconsciously clenched his fists, and the blood on his face instantly retreated.

"Lord Wang? Rajah! At this time, someone on the side gently pushed his arm, but finally made him regain some sense.

Cang Junming suddenly came back to his senses, only to find that everyone was watching him and not speaking.

His brain was still in a state of chaos, but for a while, he didn't have a clue.

"Lord Wang, your hand is injured, but do you need Imperial Doctor Xuan to deal with it?" Palace humane.

Cang Junming noticed that he didn't know when, he actually crushed the wine glass in his hand.

And the fragments of the cup pierced his palm.

The red blood suddenly fell all over the ground along the fingers.

"Not necessarily." He didn't feel any pain.

"Let's deal with it!" At this time, the emperor said, "Come on, Xuan Taiyi." ”

The imperial doctor soon came, picked out the broken porcelain piece in his palm, applied the medicine, and bandaged it.

Cang Junming was dumbfounded throughout the whole process, as if he had been drained of his soul.

Above the main hall, the quiet falling needles can be heard.

Everyone looked at each other and looked at each other secretly, but no one was the first to speak.

At this time, I heard the emperor say: "Where is King Moyang uncomfortable?" Why don't you go down and rest first! ”

Saying that, the emperor was concerned again, "Your face doesn't look good." ”

It's not very good, it's just whiter than a ghost.

"Brother Xie Huang." Cang Junming got up mechanically and saluted, then turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall.

It's just that for some reason he walked and walked, but he stumbled a little, almost tripped his left foot and his right foot, and fell on the ground.

"Lord Wang!" The palace people on the side supported him in time, and said with concern and pity, "You...... You be careful. ”

"Thank you." Cang Junming said expressionlessly, and then continued to walk towards the outside of the hall.

The entire hall was still silent, and everyone was watching his back as he left.

It wasn't until he walked out of the hall and the cold wind hit that Cang Junming felt a chill on his face.

It's cold, biting cold.

He raised his hand to wipe his face, but he felt the water stain on his hand.

He looked at the water in his hand in a trance, and didn't understand for a while, where did this come from?

At this time, the palace people on the side sighed and said, "Lord, mourn." ”

Condolences? What is the mourning?

The next moment, Cang Junming suddenly remembered that it was Gu Jiuqing!

Gu Jiuqing died in the hands of Cang Liyuan and was killed by her sword!

Why! Why is this happening!

At that moment, endless sadness instantly turned into monstrous anger.

"Cangli Yuan!" Cang Junming gritted his teeth and read the name, as if he wanted to chew it up and tear it apart.

The next moment, he turned and strode away.

"Lord, that's not your residence." The palace people shouted in vain, but they didn't stop it at all.

It wasn't until Cang Junming's menacing back completely disappeared from his field of vision that the palace people hurriedly went back to report to the emperor.

As the emperor expected, Cangjun left the palace and went straight to the town king's mansion.

At this time, the night was dark, but every family was busy keeping the New Year, and they did not sleep.

From time to time, there will be the sound of firecrackers.

It was a lively Chinese New Year's Eve, but Gu Jiuqing died alone on such a lively night.

Thinking of this, Cang Junming's heart was as if he had been twisted by a knife, and he was almost unable to stand in pain.

Why didn't you keep her in the first place!

If she hadn't been allowed to enter Beijing, wouldn't something like this happen?

In his self-blame, remorse and anger along the way, he finally rushed to the town king's mansion.

However, when faced with this vermilion gate, he suddenly calmed down.

There are so many masters in it that he can't break through on his own.

Cang Junming collected his emotions, reluctantly pulled out a smile, and then knocked on the door of the town king's mansion.

Soon, the door opened, and Cang Junming was invited in in the name of greeting the emperor's uncle.

went in unimpeded all the way, until he reached the front hall, but he saw the abyss.

Beside him, there was still Feng Qiyu, and the two seemed to be talking about something.

At that moment, Cang Junming's anger reached its peak.

He killed Gu Jiuqing with his front foot, and he was so close to this woman with his back foot!

Why!

The next moment, Cang Junming couldn't hold back any longer, held the long sword in his hand, and stabbed towards Cang Liyuan.

"Cangli Yuan! Go to hell! ”
