Chapter 719 Reunion after a long absence

...

The morning dynasty gradually came to an end, but the government and the opposition continued to be shaken.

Many people could not have imagined that the Minister of Hubu, who was suing Zhao Wujiang one moment, would actually become a prisoner the next moment.

Although there is no clear cause-and-effect relationship between the two, the person who sued the Minister of Household Affairs was the head of the Dugu family, and Zhao Wujiang was on good terms with the head of the Dugu family. They could not help but think of too many possibilities.

The courtiers began to look forward to the soon-to-be-vacated position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the already-vacated position of Minister of the Ministry of War.

These two positions are the third-rank official rank of the Daxia Dynasty. Anyone who ascends to one of them will have the power to move the wind and rain in the Daxia court.

They did not think that Zhang Tuizhi would be able to live in peace. After all, Dugu Yihe had a high position and would not attack without aim, and the thick memorial seemed to contain detailed evidence.

After the disbandment of the dynasty, many courtiers whose evidence Zhao Wujiang had obtained flocked to Zhao Wujiang, and their words were full of compliments and flattery to Zhao Wujiang.

...

Zhao Wujiang returned to the harem, and first went to Dugu Mingyue's Qifeng Palace to investigate, checked Dugu Mingyue's recent diet and medications, and took Dugu Mingyue's pulse.

Then he rejected the invitations from the two concubines Liu Meier and Xiao Wanjun as personal maids, and headed outside the palace.

Almost everyone in the harem knew the chief steward and secretary and saluted him constantly.

Even the Imperial Guards would slow down slightly and nod to him when patrolling.

As soon as he left the palace gate, he saw Li Yuanzheng standing tall and tall, wearing a simple gray gown, waiting for him not far away.

Doubts arose in him. Could it be that Li Yuanzheng had encountered some difficulty again? Why did he come here specifically?

Li Yuanzheng held a sword in both hands. When he saw Zhao Wujiang approaching, he hurriedly greeted him:

"Brother Zhao."

"Yuan Zheng? Why are you here? Where is Jiang Mengli?" Zhao Wujiang smiled.

"Mengli, her injury is about to recover..." Li Yuanzheng opened his mouth, but hesitated. There were some words he didn't know how to say to Zhao Wujiang.

After he received the news yesterday, he was extremely shocked, but Zhao Wujiang had already entered the palace, and he could not find Zhao Wujiang, so he had to wait outside early this morning.

Zhao Wujiang smiled lightly and said:

"What happened?"

"Uh..." Li Yuanzheng looked serious:

"Brother Zhao, Brother Qi..."

"Huh?" Zhao Wujiang raised his eyebrows.

"He...he was killed..." Li Yuanzheng looked slightly sad:

"Yesterday, President Feng sent someone to inform me that I rushed to the Dijiao Gang...

It was discovered that all the disciples of the Dijiao Gang had been destroyed, and Brother Qi also died tragically in the study..."

"Impossible!" Zhao Wujiang's eyes flashed:

"Qi Lin is the eleventh on the sword list. He got a glimpse of the master's cultivation...how..."

"Brother Zhao...really." Li Yuanzheng sighed:

"I found two residual sword auras at the scene. One should belong to Brother Qi, and the other is condensed and not dispersed. It should belong to another person...

I felt an extremely dangerous aura on that sword energy...

If the prediction is correct, he should be the number one faceless man on the sword list..."

Zhao Wujiang was speechless.

He kept rubbing his fingers, absentmindedly walking towards Xingqingyuan with Li Yuanzheng.

Jiang Mengli met a faceless man near Kyoto, and the faceless man had an affair with the Qianlong Sect.

There is a token of the Qianlong Sect in the Palace of the Minister of War, and there is also a token of the Qianlong Sect in the secret room of the director of the imperial hospital... His mind was racing, the director of the imperial hospital is a member of King Xiaoyao, could it be that King Xiaoyao is also a member of the Qianlong sect?

Human? Maybe even the leader? Is the faceless man his subordinate?

They killed Li Changfeng, No. 2 on the sword list, for the Dragon Fault sword, and the same goes for killing Brother Qi? What secrets does Long Fault contain?

Zhao Wujiang was a little confused at the moment, hatred was growing in his heart, and invisible pressure was also growing.

King Xiaoyao was already an image of hypocrisy and a rebel in his mind, and now he was in conflict with him, although the two did not have a head-on confrontation.

But he knew that King Xiaoyao would definitely be detrimental to Xuanyuan Jing, as well as Dugu Mingyue and his heirs in his womb. This was something he would not allow.

Now King Xiaoyao is involved in Qi Lin's matter again...

Zhao Wujiang's heart was surging as he walked into Xingqingyuan and walked through the bluestone steps.

"Brother Zhao..." A shrill cry rang out, Zhao Wujiang raised his eyes and saw that it was Qi Lin's wife Hua Ruyu.

Hua Ruyu went to the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce with Zhao Wujiang yesterday to buy rouge and gouache, but was delayed by the shop owner, and she luckily escaped.

When Li Yuanzheng rushed to the Dijiao Gang, Hua Ruyu lay on Qi Lin's body and kept crying. Then he took Hua Ruyu to Zhao Wujiang's mansion.

Hua Ruyu's eyes were extremely red and swollen. She must have cried all night last night. When she saw Zhao Wujiang at this moment, she thought of her husband Qi Lin. She felt sad and threw herself into Zhao Wujiang's arms. She cried so hard:

"Brother Zhao, you...you must avenge my husband..."

Zhao Wujiang didn't know how to place his hands. He looked far away and comforted:
