Imperial Capital.

For half a month, the warm spring breeze has melted the ice and snow.

At night, the palace is brightly lit.

Royal study room.

After Emperor Xia finished approving the memorial, he closed his eyes to rest for a moment, then opened his eagle eyes: "Old man, it's been half a month. Have you sent back any information about Xiao Jiu?"

Eunuch Wei quickly took out a thick stack of memorials from his sleeve: "Your Majesty, please take a look."

"Old thing!"

Emperor Xia laughed and scolded: "You must have been ready for this a long time ago!"

Eunuch Wei smiled with a smile on his face: "I know that His Majesty is concerned about His Highness the King of Huangzhou, so I will take all the news that came back during this period to my attention."

"Do I care about Xiaojiu?"

Emperor Xia took it with a complicated expression and murmured to himself: "There is no news from Qin Gongfeng?"

Eunuch Wei shook his head: "No!"

A trace of suspicion flashed in Xia Diying's eyes: "According to Qin Chongfeng's martial arts, he should have caught up with Xiao Jiu long ago!"

"How come there's no news back yet?"

The old eunuch, Eunuch Wei, shook his head: "This slave also feels something is fishy, ​​so I have ordered the Imperial City Department to conduct an investigation."

"Your Majesty, please open the first memorial. There is news about Qin's offering!"

Emperor Xia hurriedly opened it, and frowned even more when he took a look: "How could Qin Zongfeng arrogantly enter Xiaojiu's motorcade?"

Such a situation was not in their plan at all.

A cold light flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes: "Could it be that Qin Gongfeng was restrained by Xiao Jiu?"

"Old man, is the Qianlong Guild Master finally showing up?"

The old eunuch shook his head: "Your Majesty, please read the second memorial. The things described above may help you clear up your doubts."

Emperor Xia opened it curiously and read: "The son of the right prime minister Cao Wei was killed in Qingzhou. The murderer was a saint from the Zongheng sect. The killing method was poisoning."

"The location is outside Qingzhou City!"

"At the same time, the two thousand Qingzhou cavalry raised privately by the prince were also killed by the Zongheng faction."

Emperor Xia's eyes were full of doubts: "Old man, aren't those troublemakers from the Zongheng faction helping the prince?"

"Why did Saint Zongheng poison the prince's troops in Qingzhou?"

The old Heavenly Supervisor observed Emperor Xia's face: "According to the information from the Imperial City Division, the Zongheng Faction sent three holy envoys to cooperate with the prince to kill His Highness the King of Huangzhou, but they were all killed in reverse."

"The Saint of the Zongheng Sect believes that the prince's conspiracy against the Zongheng Faction is to weaken the Zongheng Faction's strength."

"So, they turned against each other!"

"Yeah?"

Emperor Xia became interested: "Has that mysterious old immortal from the Zongheng sect appeared?"

A trace of amusement flashed deep in the old eunuch's eyes: "Your Highness, please read the third memorial from the Imperial City Secretary."

Emperor Xia opened it eagerly and frowned deeper: "I want to fight for the crown prince position. This is nothing new!"

"But, that idiot of his actually wanted to kill Xiaojiu to please me. He is so stupid!"

"As stupid as the prince!"

suddenly.

Emperor Xia's eyes shone brightly when he saw this: "When Qin Zongfeng followed Xiaojiu's motorcade and appeared in Qingzhou, he was seriously injured and lay in the carriage unable to move?"

"Who else in this world can hurt her like this?"ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

"Old guy, can you do it?"

The old eunuch was stunned: "If the old slave tries his best to compete with Qin Gongfeng, the best we can achieve is a tie."

Emperor Xia looked at the old eunuch deeply: "Old man, in fact, I have never understood why you were able to break through to the master level when your life was cut off and your body was disabled?"

"Can I practice your "Heartless Desire Magic Skill"?"

The old eunuch looked horrified: "Your Majesty, you can't!"

"The first sentence of "The Miracle of Ruthless Desire" is: If you don't have a woman in your heart, the magic will always come true. Cut off the roots of troubles and the path of ruthlessness will emerge."

"Your Majesty, if some things are cut, they will never grow back!"

"Just like the old slave, even if he is a martial arts master now, what fun is there in being a disabled martial arts master?"

Emperor Xia blinked: "Old man, you don't have to scare me. Isn't it okay if I don't want your "The Magical Art of Ruthless Desire"?"

Cold sweat broke out on the old eunuch's forehead, and he immediately took out a blood-stained secret book from his sleeve: "Your Majesty, if you want to read it, I will give it to you now with both hands!"

"Hahaha......"

Emperor Xia laughed heartily: "Look at how scared you old guy is... There are secret books from hundreds of schools in the enshrinement hall, and I can't even see them. Forget it, you are so incomplete!"

"Take it back!"

The old eunuch took back the secret book and wiped the sweat from his face.

At this time.

Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes and said: "Old guy, the one who can seriously injure Qin Zongfang is an old guy from the Zongheng Sect who is out of trouble!"

"Order the Imperial City Division to conduct a nationwide search for information about him. If found, report immediately!"

"yes!"

"Also, Cao Wei's two sons died in Qingzhou. He will definitely go crazy. What should we do?"

At this time.

The voice of the new Minister of War, Li Jian, came from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, the veteran Minister of War, Li Jian, wants to see you!"

Emperor Xia's eyes lit up: "Come in!"

"yes!"

Li Guogong walked into the imperial study room with a dragon and tiger step, and bowed to pay homage to Emperor Xia.

"No gift!"

Emperor Xia asked directly: "The deputy commander of the Qingzhou Cavalry Regiment, Cao Bao, and the Qianqi General Cao Ma were poisoned by the Zongheng Demon Girl. Why didn't you report this matter in time?"

Li Jian said confidently: "Your Majesty, I have just received the news!"

"The eight-hundred-mile urgent report sent by Qingzhou was all robbed on the road!"

"This news didn't come until today!"

"I believe that the Zongheng Demon Girl is only a first-rate warrior and does not have the ability to kill two first-rate generals and two thousand cavalry!"

"The one who has this ability must be that mysterious old guy from the Zongheng sect, who is the enemy of thousands of people!"

"According to the information obtained by the Ministry of War, the old guy first wounded Qin Chongfeng, and then killed Cao Bao, Cao Ma and two thousand cavalry at night under Qingzhou City."

"The Qingzhou Cavalry Regiment found not only the poison on Cao Bao's body, but also the sword marks left by the old guy from the Zongheng Sect!"

Emperor Xia felt that his judgment was very correct!

Of course, he's never wrong!

Emperor Xia's eyes flashed sharply: "Damn it!"

"Old man, please send me an oral instruction to the Minister of Punishment. The whole country is looking for people from the Zongheng faction. No one can be spared!"

"Li Jian, if you find out about that old guy, immediately send an army to encircle and suppress him!"

"According to the order!"

The old eunuch Wei Eunuch and Li Guogong Li Jian bowed and retreated at the same time.

The two of them only want one thing: to destroy the Zongheng faction!

The two of them looked at each other meaningfully and left the palace.

At this time.

Emperor Xia stood at the door of the imperial study, looked into the void and murmured: "Qin Hongyi, did you choose to follow Xiaojiu despite being seriously injured, or are you still performing the mission?"

"Yes, not giving up when encountering difficulties is your Qin Hongyi style of doing things!"

"Now, if you don't send the message back, is it because you haven't figured it out yet?"

"Perhaps, without any news from you, I can look forward to it more!"

"I will be patiently waiting for your news in the imperial capital!"

"Now, let's appease that old guy Cao Wei!"

"What a headache!"

the other side.

Xia Tian was riding on his war horse, looking at Tianmen Mountain getting closer and closer, and said in a deep voice: "Act as planned!"

"yes!"

The boys with hidden swords disappeared!

The Huangzhou Prince's motorcade lit up torches, and the motorcade turned into a long fire dragon and arrived in front of Tianmen Mountain at midnight.

The night is dark and windy!

Killing night!
Chapter completed!
