Chapter 423: 'The Tempest' is coming
Although the imperial capital is the largest city in the entire Zijin Empire, the transmission of news is not slow at all. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's just one day, and everyone in the entire imperial capital knows that Lin Yue killed almost all the male pets around her!
Almost all?
Not bad!
Because the rest of the people also knew that Zhao Yi, the male pet who was once Lin Yue's favorite and most trusted, disappeared long before Lin Yue made a move!
For a while, rumors were spreading, and there were all kinds of things!
Especially in the mouths of those who don't know the inside story, the reasons for Lin Yue's action this time have been arranged in dozens of ways! But the root of its content is almost all obscure ridicule and contempt for Lin Yue!
After all, Lin Yue's reputation would have stinked on the streets long ago! If it weren't for Zhao Min's trust and thus his extremely high status and power, some people would have publicly expressed their dissatisfaction a long time ago!
Although for many reasons, everyone could not clearly express their disdain for Lin Yue! But this incident gave many people a chance!
All in all, Lin Yue became a joke in the entire imperial capital!
In the morning, when Lin Yue was working in her department, a person she didn't want to see came to Lin Yue.
"You're coming to see my joke?!" Lin Yue looked gloomy and stared at the man in front of him with an unkind expression.
At this moment, the joke about Lin Yue had spread throughout the entire imperial capital and became everyone's joke. Lin Yue could almost feel the schadenfreude in everyone's gaze towards her! If she hadn't been able to kill all of these people, I'm afraid she would have killed all the people who saw her during this time!
And the man in front of him is one of the people Lin Yue doesn't want to see: Zhang Wuji!
Both are Zhao Min's subordinates, Zhang Wuji and Lin Yue have an inherent contradiction: who can get Zhao Min's trust more.
There is only so much power, and Zhao Min's trust is only so much! Whoever has more will have less of the other!
As soon as Zhang Wuji came to Zhao Min's command, he was quickly appreciated by Zhao Min for his outstanding ability and strength. For Lin Yue, this is one more person to share the power in his hands and Zhao Min's trust! Naturally, the two have a natural contradiction!
What's more, Zhang Wuji is a beautiful man in every aspect, and he is also a person who is extremely tempting to women! But from beginning to end, Zhang Wuji did not have the slightest color for Lin Yue, and he was thousands of miles away!
The so-called what you can't get, your heart wants to get it even more! Lin Yue's thoughts about Zhang Wuji are also very clear! But Zhang Wuji did not waver in the slightest, and even became a lover with Zhang Ling, who Lin Yue thought was ten million miles behind her.
As a result, a kind of emotion of love and hatred bred in Lin Yue's mind, and naturally she had more resentment towards Zhang Wuji, and the two had some fights either openly or secretly before!
In Lin Yue's opinion, Zhang Wuji came here this time to see his jokes! This male pet incident is clearly a huge stain on Lin Yue...... A stain that has been sunburned!
"I'm not in that mood!" Zhang Wuji looked at Lin Yue with a calm face, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty has given me the task of investigating such a secret organization!"
"Oh?!" Lin Yue's face changed, and she said with a little jealousy, "Then you're here to show off?"
"Heh!" Zhang Wuji chuckled, he already knew the wise saying 'don't reason with women', and he didn't plan to argue about anything, "I'm just here to tell you that your behavior makes it difficult for me!"
"What do you mean?!" Lin Yue's eyes flashed with anger, and he stood up and asked.
"You're startling!" Zhang Wuji shook his head and said in a deep voice.
"......" Lin Yue didn't speak, just responded silently.
Although Lin Yue has a lot of shortcomings, he is not a stupid person! Because of his anger before, he was extremely ruthless and simple. But under Zhang Wuji's reminder, she immediately knew that she had indeed done something wrong.
"So what?!" Lin Yue naturally didn't have any concessions, looked at Zhang Wuji and said, "Are you here to punish me on behalf of Your Majesty?"
"I'm just here to tell you, don't be so reckless in the future!" Zhang Wuji sighed, looked at Lin Yue and said, "This will make my mission very troublesome!"
"Hmph!" Lin Yue snorted coldly, sat down in his place and turned his head aside and said, "Got it!"
"That's good. Zhang Wuji nodded, and then asked, "I want to know the information of those people." ”
“...... I'll send someone to hand it over to you after I'm done!" Lin Yue hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a low voice.
"Thank you. Zhang Wuji smiled, "Then, farewell!"
"Don't send it!"
================================================================
'The Hidden Dragon Society', somewhere in a secret stronghold.
More than a dozen people from the 'Hidden Dragon Society' really gathered there. If there are old people in the 'Hidden Dragon Society' here, you will find that these people are the leaders of the long-established families and groups that are deeply rooted in the 'Hidden Dragon Society'.
It has been more than 3,000 years since the establishment of the 'Hidden Dragon Society', and during this period, many former backbone elements have relied on the 'Hidden Dragon Society' to establish their own families and groups. Today, these families and groups have gained a lot of power and influence in the 'Hidden Dragon Society'.
Under normal circumstances, the leaders of these families and groups would not come forward. Although they belong to the 'Hidden Dragon Society', when they reach their position, they basically don't need to work for the 'Hidden Dragon Society' in person, they just send their own family members or members of the group to carry out tasks!
But people who usually hardly have to come forward to do anything in person are gathered together today, and it is obvious that there are a lot of problems in this!
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are exposed!" said a man with a heroic face and gray hair. I saw that his sword eyebrows were tightly locked, and he said after glancing at everyone present.
"So what?!" said a man with a slightly bloated figure and a pair of slender eyebrows that drooped to his face, "Our identities are still a secret!"
"That Zhao Yi, has it been solved?" The man who spoke first did not refute him, but looked at an old man on the other side who was thin and looked extremely capable.
"Don't worry, he won't reveal any of our information!" the man said lightly. It sounds extremely simple, but everyone present knows that there is a murderous aura contained in this!
"I didn't expect us to be exposed so soon!" said a man wearing a long crown and a luxurious robe, and he said in a deep voice, "We're not quite ready yet!"
"If it weren't for that Zhao Min, why would we have to prepare?!" A short but sturdy man said hatefully, "And that 'Heavenly General' Zhang Zhuofan, who is elbowed everywhere!
"Okay! Is it useful to complain about this?!" The man with long eyebrows and bloated body interrupted everyone's words and asked in a deep voice, "That Zhao Hao is also a piece of shit, too far worse than that Zhao Min! If it weren't for that, we would have been able to get more support!"
"If his ability is the same as Zhao Min's, what else should I wait for?!" The thin and capable man sneered and said, "Didn't we just choose him because we took a fancy to his incompetence?!"
"Okay, now the question is, think about where we made the disclosure!" the heroic man who spoke first spoke again, "Only then will we know how much has been exposed!"
"According to the report, it seems that Lin Yue was summoned after Ao Chunyi met Zhao Min in person!" The long-crowned man nodded and said, "Then Lin Yue began to check Zhao Hao's empty coffin, so he knew Zhao Yi's situation!"
"So, the problem is with that Ao Chunyi?!" the heroic man raised his eyebrows, and then said, "I remember, he seems to have been sent to 'Putuo Mountain' to carry out an aid mission!"
"Yes. The short and stout man said, "It's said that it's to help, but it's actually to train young people! From the beginning, Zhao Min didn't plan to save 'Putuo Mountain'! So I ordered people to do some sabotage, so that they would not be so easy!"
"It seems that something is wrong!" The sword-eyed man at the head nodded, and then looked at the lean and capable man, "Let's go check it out." ”
"Got it. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, let me remind you. We've been exposed!" Finally, the sword-eyed man glanced at everyone and said, "With Zhao Min's means, we will definitely take action!
"I got the news that Zhao Min handed over the task to that Zhang Wuji!" said the thin man at this time.
"Zhang Wuji......." Everyone fell silent.
In the past, with the identity of the old man of the 'Hidden Dragon Society', they always excluded and suppressed each other openly and secretly. But because the other party has a deep background, there is not much that can be done! Now that the other party is carrying out the tasks assigned by Zhao Min, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with!
The most important thing is that now everyone knows that Zhang Wuji is Zhang Ling's lover, and the person who is recognized by the 'heavenly general' Zhang Zhuofan! If you use your previous attitude again, I am afraid that even if you are not exposed, you may be stumbled by Zhang Wuji by taking this opportunity to stumble on yourself!
"It's come to this, just be cautious!" The sword-eyed man led by him broke the silence and said, "Don't just catch Zhang Wuji!"
"Yes!" everyone nodded, and then left one after another.
At the same time, Ao Chunyi had returned to the camp and re-emerged as the supreme leader of the people.
"Master Hou, Dong Ming really ......." When Ao Chunyi summoned everyone to come, Wang Daming couldn't help but be the first to ask.
"Needless to say!" Ao Chunyi interrupted Wang Daming's words and said in a deep voice, "That night, Ben Hou personally followed Dong Ming and discovered Dong Ming's contact with outsiders! From their words, Ben Hou knew what happened! Now, Your Majesty has ordered a comprehensive investigation!"
"Yes. Everyone glanced at each other, and then could only accept Ao Chunyi's words.
When the matter reached the empress, everyone knew that this was a matter of breaking the sky! Although Wang Daming and the others did not know how serious the problem was. But at the same time, they also knew that Dong Ming might not be able to turn over!
"Where is Dong Ming being held?!" Ao Chunyi looked at Wang Daming and asked.
"In the central position of the camp, his subordinates have already sent people to guard it tightly! Hou Ye wants to see him?" asked Wang Daming respectfully.
"No need!" Ao Chunyi shook his head and said in a deep voice, "It won't be long before Commander Zhang Wuji will send someone to take him away, and he must be sure to ensure his safety, let alone let him escape!"
"My subordinates understand!" Wang Daming's heart sank, and he immediately said.
Zhang Wuji is a celebrity no matter how 'Hidden Dragon Club' is, and he has high authority. Ordinary events will not be handed over to him at all, which shows that this matter involves being in the body, and it is definitely not something that a little shrimp like him can pay attention to.
As a result, the intercession for Dong Ming and other matters that everyone was brewing ended before they began!
At this point, it is no longer the deliberate suppression of the broken waves or the killing of chickens and monkeys by Ao Chunyi as they speculated! The content involved in it, I am afraid that whoever is contaminated will die!
"Subordinates, see Lord Hou, commanders!" At this time, a warrior rushed in in a panic.
"What's the matter?!" Ao Chunyi frowned. Although the 'Hidden Dragon Society' was inferior to Gu Yi's 'Howling Heaven' in all aspects, it would never have such a panicked behavior casually.
"Commander Dong....... Dong Commander....... Dead!" the warrior stammered as he explained the situation.
"What?!" everyone's faces changed suddenly. Especially Wang Daming, who confidently said that he was strictly guarded, and immediately reported that Dong Ming was dead, what a slap in the face!?
"Lead the way!" Ao Chunyi walked out of his position with an iron face and said angrily.
"Yes!" the warrior hurriedly stood up and led everyone away like Dong Ming's guard.
didn't go far, Ao Chunyi and the others came to Dong Ming's detention place.
I saw that in the cage made of stainless steel, Dong Ming, whose cheekbones were pierced, tilted his head and fell inside, his face was blue and black, and a trace of black liquid flowed out of the corner of his mouth. Not only that, but the whole body seemed to be left for several days, and the strong stench of corpses permeated.
"When did you die?!" Ao Chunyi squinted his eyes and asked in a deep voice.
"My subordinates came to see him in person in the morning, but it was ...... an hour," Wang Daming said here, and he couldn't go on. He himself realized that he was probably the last person known to see Dong Ming.
"It's poison. Broken Lang walked out of the open cage and said to Ao Chunyi in a deep voice, "His inner abdomen has festered, and his outer skin has rotted like a few days after his death. Obviously, it's a very powerful poison!"
"You should know what to do, right?" Ao Chunyi nodded, turned his head and said to Wang Daming.
"Yes. Wang Daming smiled bitterly and stopped moving.
"Take it!" Broken Lang saw Ao Chunyi looking at it, and immediately shouted.
"Yes!" On the side, Ao Chunyi's personal guards immediately grabbed Dong Ming. The whole process was very smooth, Dong Ming did not resist, and the rest of the people had no objections.
As the biggest suspect, Wang Daming must be taken down. Even if he was wronged, he must take it down at this time!
Everyone knows that a 'storm' is coming!
