"Grandpa Xu, why are you here?"

As soon as Ye Cheng returned to the main hall, he saw Xu Heng, who was dressed in a purple robe, hurriedly walking in.

At this time in time, it should be the first hour, right?

"Ye Hou, hurry up and enter the palace with our family, Your Majesty is still waiting for you."

Xu Heng hurriedly said.

"Father-in-law Xu, what's the matter, so urgent? Besides, I haven't changed my clothes yet. ”

Ye Cheng immediately understood that something big must have happened, otherwise Emperor Qianhuang would not have sent Xu Heng to urge him into the palace in such a hurry.

"You will know the specific situation when you enter the palace. Hurry up and clean up. ”

Xu Heng shook his head, saw that Ye Cheng was disheveled, and immediately said.

Soon, a maid came up to fix Ye Cheng's hair, and another maid brought a basin towel, washed her face and rinsed her mouth, and put on the jade crown and official clothes.

It didn't take long for Ye Cheng and Xu Heng to leave the Hou Mansion and get into the carriage in the palace.

In less than half an hour, Ye Cheng had already arrived at the Cultivation God Temple.

"The minister has seen Your Majesty."

Ye Cheng hurriedly saluted.

"Ye Qing, I got the news not long ago, the sword of the Heavenly Sword Gate, the Buddha of the Buddha of the Landa Temple, the young master of the Black Dragon Villa, the Holy Maiden of the Yueqing Sect, and the young city lord of Tianji City were attacked one after another, among which the Jianzi of the Heavenly Sword Gate and the Holy Maiden of the Yueqing Sect were seriously injured, and the other three were all killed."

Emperor Qian's face said calmly.

The news that could be said shocked Ye Cheng.

Because it's just too big.

These people are all the orthodox heirs of the major grandmasters.

Their status is extremely high, and they also represent the face of each faction.

Now all of them have been attacked.

Three died, two seriously wounded.

"Your Majesty, did they do this?"

Ye Cheng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"Although there is no evidence to suggest, they are the only ones who have the strength."

The Emperor sighed.

He didn't expect those two families to be so frustrated and use such means.

"No, His Majesty has the ability."

Ye Cheng shook his head and said.

"yes."

Emperor Qianhuang nodded, "Although everyone knows that the biggest possibility is the two of them, those grandmaster forces will not fully believe me." ”

"Your Majesty, this time it was the minister's poor consideration that led to such a consequence, please punish Your Majesty."

Ye Cheng hurriedly said.

He understood that the purpose of the two families using this kind of conspiracy and conspiracy was to break the new rules of the Spring Examination, prevent the five great grandmaster forces from entering the Shenwu Academy, and at the same time completely tear apart the relationship between the five great grandmaster forces and the imperial court.

"It's no wonder that you can't blame you, I didn't expect them to dare to do this, it seems that Ye Qing's actions have completely forced the two of them into a desperate situation."

The Emperor sighed.

He admired those two old things a little bit now.

Because after this incident, he, the emperor, had only two choices, one was to stand on the side of the two families and deal with the forces of the five great grandmasters, so that all the efforts made by Ye Cheng before would be in vain.

There is no way, in this case, it is impossible for the royal family to remain neutral and let the five great grandmasters deal with the Wang and Zhao families.

In that case, I'm afraid that the world will be in chaos.

And the royal family will also lose its prestige.

The second is to stand on the side of the five great grandmasters, investigate the truth, and deal with the Wang and Zhao families.

But this is undoubtedly drinking to quench your thirst.

With the loss of the Wang and Zhao families, the royal family will also completely lose its advantage over the five great grandmasters.

Moreover, if the Wang and Zhao families are moved, the losses and impacts caused will not be less than the previous one, and they will definitely be greater.

The power of the Wang and Zhao families has already penetrated into all corners of the imperial court, and in a sense, the importance of the Wang and Zhao families to the imperial court, to the royal family, and even to the world is much greater than that of the five great masters.

This is also the main reason why the royal family has always co-opted the Wang and Zhao families and suppressed the five great grandmasters.

Ye Cheng began to think.

What should I do in this case?

Whether it is the two families of Wang and Zhao on the side, or the five great grandmasters, it seems that it will not work.

Neutrality is even less viable.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's time to make a decision."

Ye Cheng said suddenly.

"What decision?"

Emperor Qian's eyes condensed slightly.

"Completely get rid of the Wang and Zhao families."

Ye Cheng said.

Emperor Qianhuang was startled and looked at Ye Cheng.

He had this idea before, but he didn't dare to do it.

The consequences are too great.

Even in the previous bandit rebellion, he just investigated the truth and took the opportunity to suppress the two families.

Because the strength of the royal family alone is not enough to occupy the advantage, not to mention that there are five great grandmasters eyeing each other.

And winning over the five great masters will inevitably lead the wolf into the room.

"Your Majesty, uniting the five great grandmaster factions and clearing the forces of the Wang and Zhao families seems to shake the foundation of the imperial court, lure the wolf into the room, and repeat the mistakes of the Wang and Zhao families, but that's because we see the five great grandmaster factions as a whole. In the face of the suppression of the imperial court, the five of them will inevitably report to the group to keep warm, but once the imperial court accepts them and clears out the Wang and Zhao families, who are the most hostile to them, these five loose alliances will inevitably collapse, because they have become competitive with each other. And what Your Majesty needs to do is to divide, co-opt, and suppress the five great sects of grandmasters, so that they can no longer unite against the royal family. ”

When Ye Cheng saw Emperor Qian's expression, he knew that he was not mentally prepared, but he also knew that the opportunity was rare, so he immediately instigated it.

The heirs of the five great sects of the great masters are either dead or seriously injured, and they will definitely not give up, otherwise how can they save face?

It is just right to use the power of the five families to completely eliminate the Wang and Zhao families.

This may seem like a crisis, but in fact it is also an opportunity.

Of course, the idea is good, it depends on whether the emperor has the courage and whether he can make this crazy decision.

"Ye Qing, you go back first, I have to think about it."

Emperor Qianhuang waved his hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ye Cheng hurriedly bowed, and then left the main hall.

How to decide next depends on the choice of the emperor.

All he can do is advise.

The final decision-making power is in the hands of the Emperor.

If Emperor Qianhuang really decided to give it a go and thoroughly understand the Wang and Zhao families, then he, the hidden innate grandmaster, would naturally do his part.

After all, he had promised in his heart that he would give the two grandmasters, Wang Tiangang and Zhao Zanglong, a happy one.

In the next few days, the news that the heirs of the five great sects of the Great Sect had been attacked, seriously injured or even killed, spread all over the world at an alarming speed.

The world was shocked.

If the heir of a certain family is attacked, forget it.

It was actually that all the heirs of the five great grandmaster factions were attacked, this was not a coincidence, but a conspiracy against the five great grandmaster factions.

For a time, all kinds of rumors flew.

It is said that this matter was done by someone sent by the royal family, in order to let the five great masters and the Wang Zhao family lose both and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

It is also said that it was a conspiracy between the Wang and Zhao families, in order to deal with the new rules of the spring test of the Shenwu Academy and force the Emperor to give up this plan.

It is also said that the five great grandmasters directed and acted by themselves, in order to become famous and obtain greater benefits in the new rules of the spring test.

It's messed up.

It's a complete mess.

At the next court meeting, some ministers immediately attacked Ye Cheng, saying that Ye Cheng revised the rules of the spring examination of the Shenwu Academy, which caused such serious consequences, and asked the Emperor to remove Ye Cheng from the post of head of the Shenwu Academy and punish him.

This incident also caused chaos in the court.

Xishan Hongyuan.

Still in the bamboo pavilion.

The two grandmasters are playing chess.

"Hey, if it weren't for the Qianhuang being aggressive, how could the two of us make such a decision."

Wang Tiangang buckled a chess piece and said with a sigh.

The current situation is also very dangerous for the Wang and Zhao families.

But Emperor Qianhuang borrowed Ye Cheng's hand to revise the spring examination rules of the Shenwu Academy, which had already shaken the absolute interests of the Wang and Zhao families.

The reason why the two of them can have today's situation is with the help of the Shenwu Academy.

Therefore, Shenwu Academy absolutely cannot afford to lose.

"Now it depends on how Emperor Qianhuang chooses, I hope he can make the right choice, my Wang and Zhao families are on the side of the court after all."

Zhao Zanglong said indifferently.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Ye Cheng didn't go to the Shenwu Academy for several days in a row.

Instead, he went to Qingyuan Building every day to drink.

And the Emperor never summoned him.

On this morning, he came to Qingyuan Building again.

"Ye Gongzi, have you been here for five consecutive days?"

In the restaurant, Shopkeeper Su was sitting at the counter, and when he saw Ye Cheng coming in, he showed a look of surprise.

"What, aren't you welcome?"

Ye Cheng said with a smile.

"Of course you're welcome, you can let Ye Gongzi come every day, my restaurant is full of brilliance."

Shopkeeper Su chuckled.

Ye Cheng walked up to the second floor, and Shopkeeper Su also followed with a jar of wine.

"Ye Gongzi, what happened recently has no effect on you, right?"

After Shopkeeper Su filled Ye Cheng, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked.

As the shopkeeper of this restaurant, her sources are quite extensive.

What's more, the fact that the heirs of the five great sects of the great masters were all attacked has already become known to the world.

All kinds of rumors are spreading.

It is said that the five great sects of the Grandmasters were passionate, and they wanted to seek justice for their heirs, which caused great pressure on the imperial court.

Now that the whole world is watching the reaction of the Emperor, how will he deal with this matter?

"Not yet."

Ye Cheng shook his head and said.

Of course, in the eyes of many people, Ye Cheng's wanton reform in the Shenwu Academy and the revision of the new rules of the spring test must be related to this big event.

Therefore, Ye Cheng, the initiator, must be implicated.

Shopkeeper Zhao glanced at Ye Cheng with a complicated expression, and didn't say anything more.

But she knew it wasn't that simple.

Palace.

The Temple of Nourishment.

"Father."

The crown prince Su Zhe honestly stood in front of the Emperor, "You won't punish Ye Cheng, right?" ”

Such a big thing, he naturally knew about it a long time ago.

I also want to see the Emperor.

But in the past two days, the emperor has not shown up.

It wasn't until today that he was called.

"Do you think I'm such a mediocre emperor?"

Emperor Qianhuang said indifferently, "Although his measures are a little more radical, they have also obtained my permission. ”

When the crown prince Su Zhe heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

What he was most worried about was that his father finally pushed Ye Cheng out of the black pot in order to balance all parties.

It's not impossible, it's very likely.

Because the introduction of everything is Ye Cheng's revision of the spring test rules.

For an emperor, once something gets out of control and does not want to affect his prestige, he will often push some people out as scapegoats.

"Father, then you decided?"

Prince Su Zhe asked softly.

"Zhe'er, the cancer of the Wang and Zhao families, I don't want to leave it to you anymore."

Emperor Qianhuang looked at his son and said with a sigh.

So far, the crown prince has not achieved an innate martial artist.

Half a year ago, he used a spiritual object, but he didn't expect the breakthrough to fail, although under his protection, there was no danger.

But even if there is still a chance to become an innate martial artist in the future, the chances of a grandmaster are very small.

Therefore, he hopes to completely solve the Wang and Zhao families in his tenure, leaving his son with a more stable Qianguo.

"Father."

Prince Su Zhe's eyes were red, "Erchen is incompetent, I disappointed you too much." ”

"This kind of thing is martial arts, you can't force it, there will be a big change in the world next, and you, as the prince, must be psychologically prepared."

Emperor Qianhuang said indifferently.

"Erchen knows."

Prince Su Zhe nodded and said.

"Xu Heng, go find Ye Cheng."

Emperor Qianhuang suddenly said to Xu Heng, who was waiting outside the hall.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Xu Heng answered outside, he went out.

Qingyuan Building.

Ye Cheng and Bai Yulang drank wine and chatted.

Bai Yulang would come here to drink almost every day, much more frequently than Ye Cheng.

"Mansion master, I think you're going to sit on a cold bench this time."

Bai Yulang drank too much, so he opened his mouth, "Actually, it's good to sit on a cold bench, otherwise you were busy every day like before, and you didn't even have time to drink, look at it now. Now I have time to drink, how chic. ”

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "Lao Bai, you are like this every day, do you plan to live like this for the rest of your life?" ”

"Isn't that bad? No worries, chic life. ”

Bai Yulang picked up the wine glass and touched it with Ye Cheng.

"You, don't regret it when you're old."

Ye Cheng shook his head and smiled, and took a sip of the remaining wine in the cup.

"Absolutely not."

Bai Yulang grinned.

Pedal, pedal, pedal.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps sounded from the staircase, and then Xu Heng, the purple-robed celebrant and eunuch with the palm seal, had already come upstairs.

"Ye Hou, I finally found you."

Xu Heng said breathlessly.

He is not a guard eunuch, he has never practiced martial arts, and he is a lot older, so he feels very tired when he climbs the stairs.

"Father-in-law Xu, you can send someone over to inform me, there is no need to run over in person."

When Ye Cheng saw Xu Heng coming to find him, he immediately understood that the Emperor had made a decision.

"Don't delay, Ye Hou, let's go quickly."

Xu Heng said.

Ye Cheng got up and followed Xu Heng down.

Bai Yulang shook his head when he saw this, and then continued to drink.

It didn't take long for Shopkeeper Su to walk up.

"Bai Ye, Ye Gongzi, will be fine?"

She sat down and asked.

"Don't worry, the mansion master will be fine."

Bai Yulang smiled, "Hehe, this jar of good wine will all belong to me today." ”

As he spoke, he filled his glass again.

He knew that behind the mansion master stood a mysterious eunuch grandmaster.

Although I don't know the true identity of this eunuch grandmaster, if something happens to the mansion master, that eunuch grandmaster will definitely take action.

Therefore, the lord of the mansion is at most a cold bench who has lost his position, and his life must be worry-free.

What's more, this Chief Manager Xu came to find the mansion master in person, and it seems that the situation is not as bad as imagined.
