Imperial Palace, Changding Hall

In the huge hall, only one person's roar could be heard at this time.

The group of people kneeling in the hall all hung their heads, holding their breath and listening to the emperor's roar.

“...... What are you going to investigate? What have you been doing in the past few days? I have given you money to let you stay in the house like pigs every day to eat and drink? Incompetent!

"The monsters can enter the capital, is there a demon clan going to break into my palace and stand in front of me?"

"There are so many officials, I usually raise you, and I don't expect you to have much ability, but it's useless to be like this, it's just shocking to me! If I were you, how could I still have the face to kneel here and beg for my forgiveness?"

The roaring emperor was not small in lethality, and with this mouth, he spit out a "sharp blade", which made the officials lower their heads next to the ground, so ashamed that they wanted to crash to death on the pillar on the spot.

But if he did this, he died, and he died a hundred, afraid that his family would be angry and guilty.

Therefore, the emperor roared above, and the group of people kneeling below, all bowed their heads, and no one said a word.

At a glance, among these people, there are still a few Taoists, among them are Liu Zhan and Huo Wufu, these two are the first to bear the brunt and are also sprayed.

Huo Wufu no longer hopes to be rewarded by the emperor through alchemy, so that his sect can be carried forward, he just wants to lose twice in a row, and don't let the emperor get angry.

Liu Zhan also knelt with his head down, a real person who could kill the big demon outside, and at this time he had to bow his head in front of the imperial power, and he had no face.

In addition to them, there were several generals, who also participated in the pursuit of Zhou Xuan this time, and they were also reprimanded.

After venting, the depression in his chest subsided a little, and the emperor also scolded and panted, and turned around with a cold face: "They are still kneeling as wooden chickens, why don't you go and find out this matter for me!

With a "get out", these people all retreated in disgrace.

Liu Zhan and Huo Wufu walked in the crowd, glancing at each other, the expressions on their faces were full of frustration and depression.

Liu Zhan is better, the destruction of the medicine cellar must be investigated, and the first thing to bear the brunt is Huo Wufu's conviction, but this can't be said, he is really safe and sound.

What's the use of being really safe and sound?

He endured humiliation and burden, and did this for the emperor, not to offset the merits and demerits, but to develop with the Yin Guan faction, with the public, and to fight against the demon clan.

He knew very well that the Yin Guan faction had been different from other moderates over the years, and had killed the demon clan to refine the pill and raise its cave sky, which was of course a meritorious feat for the human race, but for the demon clan, it was a monstrous sin.

If the demon clan rises, others will still have life, and the Yin Guan faction, whose hands are stained with the blood of the demon clan, has no physiology.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhan's eyes flashed, this big demon can enter Beijing, can use demon magic in Beijing, and can escape, what magic weapon or secret does it have?

If it is an omen of the rise of the demon race, it will be very bad.

Even if it wasn't for the emperor, the Yin Guan faction would pursue it with all their might, vowing to peel off the skin and cramp and get this secret out.

And Huo Wu's mood is worse than Liu Zhan's, and the current plan can only be to let the division send elites to hunt down and kill the big demon who went out of Beijing, if he can bring back this demon head in front of others, or he can offset the merits, he will not be severely punished by the emperor.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and when they went out, they hurried by, and rarely communicated.

In the main hall, with his back to the palace door, the emperor remained motionless until the officials and Taoists in the hall retreated, then turned around and asked gloomily: "Is the King of Qi involved in this matter?"

This question is Zhao Gonggong who is standing on one side.

Because he was burned from the palm of his hand to his arm, and his joints were broken, Zhao Gonggong was also very embarrassed at the moment, his hands were hung on his chest with a cloth band, and there were a few bruises on his face.

Hearing the emperor's question, he whispered: "Back to the emperor, the Imperial City Division did not find out how much the King of Qi had anything to do with this matter, but it was just ......"

"Just what?

"It's just that King Qi has indeed met this big demon. ”

"Have you seen once?" the Emperor tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"Yes, on the day of the incident, they had met in the restaurant, and the big demon noticed it, and fled in an ox cart when he left the restaurant, while the king of Qi left through the secret passage. ”

didn't hear the emperor's voice, Zhao Gonggong lowered his head, and he could figure out what the emperor's expression was.

Speaking of which, not only did the emperor suspect that this big demon was related to the King of Qi, but even he suspected that this big demon was sent by the King of Qi to destroy the medicine store and delay the alchemy.

If not, how could things be so coincidental?

Even if the demon clan hates the Ji family deeply, they will not know about refining the Great Dan, and besides, even if they do, they will not use this method, after all, although life and death are important today, they have nothing to do with the demon clan.

Only the prince, the life and death of the emperor and the longevity of the emperor related to the seizure of the heir will be more important.

Gonggong Zhao thought like this, and he didn't see the emperor say anything for a while, so he quietly raised his eyes and glanced at it, and the next moment he was busy lowering his eyes again, not daring to look at it again.

At this time, the emperor's expression had calmed down, and he couldn't see the slightest trace of anger, at most he could see that his eyes were cold and there was no expression.

didn't even laugh angrily, at this time, Zhao Gonggong couldn't help but shudder, and in a trance, he seemed to have returned to more than ten years ago, back to the time when the blood smell was strongest in the capital.

How similar was the emperor back then to now?

Duke Zhao couldn't help but feel chills in his heart, he had been serving this master all these years, and he couldn't understand that this was the emperor's really angry look.

In the main hall, only the sound of restrained shallow breathing sounded, and after a while, the emperor asked again: "Qingyuan Temple can be related to this matter?"

The emperor was a little surprised that Qingyuan Temple was involved, but he had been on the pole for many years and knew that even if it was a policy that benefited the country and the people, there were many people who did everything possible to obstruct it.

To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than uneasy duty, does Qingyuan Temple also want to go further?

Zhao Gonggong hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, I haven't found much else, but one thing has been ascertained, that is, Qingyuan Temple did take in the big demon and let him live in the Jushi Garden." ”

After a pause, he said: "Could it be that this demon can enter Beijing, and it has something to do with Qingyuan Temple and even Sanskrit?"

Although Sanskrit has not been revealed, those who have aspiring and knowledgeable have studied Sanskrit and know that it is not a good idea, which can be regarded as profound, and it is not worse than Taoism.

Perhaps, this is the beginning of Sanskrit intervention in this world?

Don't blame Zhao Gonggong for thinking like this, he didn't believe that Qingyuan Temple didn't see the details of the big demon, and in the case of knowing the identity of this demon, he also tolerated it to live in the Jushi Garden, if he said that there was nothing inside, he didn't believe it if he was killed!

Hearing this, a trace of green appeared on the emperor's face, and he did not speak, but walked to the front of the hall step by step, stood at the gate of the palace, and looked into the distance.

Seeing the emperor standing here with his hands behind his back, Zhao Gonggong held his breath and condensed, and immediately lowered his head, and the sound of his heartbeat could be clearly heard in his ears.

I don't know how long it has been, when Gonggong Zhao heard the emperor turn around, his expression was faint, and he obviously made a decision: "Spread my will, torture the monks of Qingyuan Temple, be sure to pry open their mouths!"

"The number of people overseeing King Qi has doubled, and there are still ......"

The emperor hesitated a little, but still issued the last order: "Prepare a decree for me, and make Ji Zizong the acting king!"
