Anyunshan, Liu Dufeng, and Zhuge Zhengwo who were fighting outside the city also felt this move.
The moves in their hands also stopped for a moment, stepped back a few feet, and then looked towards the city in unison.
Among the three people, only Zhuge Zhengga received Zhang Sanfeng's guidance and recognized the meaning of it at a glance.
Seeing this, An Yunshan thought that a master of the Dongxuan Realm had taken action against An Shigeng and couldn't help but said, "Ignoring the rules of the world and using the big to bully the small, you are truly a lackey of the imperial court."
Liu Dufeng looked at the abusive An Yunshan and couldn't help laughing angrily, "An Yunshan, when you and your son poisoned hundreds of people at the water transport terminal and stole the imperial court's grain, why didn't you think about the rules?"
It was suspected that someone from the Dongxuan Realm had taken action. An Yunshan knew that even if he rushed back to the Divine Capital City now, he would not be able to save An Shigeng.
And the two people in front of me are not good friends either.
The Hunyuan invisible body-shattering sword energy of Liu Dufeng, the God Catcher, is so sharp that the sword energy can be activated every time he moves his hands and feet.
Although he has the ability to absorb Liu Dufeng's sword energy with the power of Devouring Heaven and Na Yuan, An Yunshan will not have a good time when this sharp sword energy enters his body. He cannot use it for his own use immediately and has to use his own efforts to suppress it.
As for Zhuge Zhengwo, although this man looks upright and peaceful, his Bagua mentality is endlessly changeable. The eight powers of heaven, earth, wind, thunder, mountains, rivers, water, and fire can be combined at will, with a total of thirty-six changes, the number of Tiangang.
Whenever his own Heaven-Swallowing Nayuan Divine Skill absorbs Zhuge Zhengwo's skill, his true essence does not move at all.
If he continues to fight, it will only be a matter of time before he is defeated by the two of them.
An Yunshan took a look at the men he brought with him. They had already been eliminated by Tie Youxia and others, and he knew in his heart that he could not continue fighting.
When the two people's attention was once again attracted by the changes in the vitality of the city, they used the fire escape method, and their bodies turned into a ball of fire.
When Liu Dufeng saw this, three sword energies popped out from his fingertips.
The sword energy dispersed the fire ball, but An Yunshan disappeared.
Liu Dufeng and Zhuge Zhengwo looked at each other.
"Chase!"
----------------------------------
Tonight, Operation Dali Temple was a complete victory.
Although the situation outside the city is not yet known, the purpose of the operation has basically been achieved inside the city.
But Yang Qingyuan and Li Xunhuan couldn't take any time off. They still had things to do.
After Yang Qingyuan handed over the cleaning of An Mansion to Ji Yaohua, he hurried to the palace with Li Xunhuan.
After a busy night, it is now close to the Yin hour, but the palace door is still closed at this moment. It is not the regular court on the 36th and 9th, and the palace door will not be opened until the 3rd day of the lunar month.
Yang Qingyuan had no choice but to call the door with the token given by Emperor Zhou.
Emperor Zhou was sleeping peacefully in his palace at this time. A guard ran all the way to the entrance of the palace and was stopped by Cao Shaoqin, the stall owner of Dongchang who was on duty at night.
"Why are you so alarmed?! You disturbed His Majesty's sleep. How many heads do you have?!"
When the guard saw it was Cao Shaoqin, he immediately saluted and said, "Eunuch Cao, there is someone outside the palace gate to see you."
Cao Shaoqin said nonchalantly, "Don't you know that the palace gate opens at midnight? You don't understand the rules at all! Let them wait!?"
"Yes!?..." The guard was embarrassed for a while, and then handed over a jade token with both hands, "The person who came here holds your Majesty's token and claims that he has urgent matters and needs to meet with your Majesty."
Cao Shaoqin took the token and his expression changed, "Who is he?!"
"It's Mr. Yang, the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, and Mr. Li Yushi from the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"
"You wait here!"
Cao Shaoqin entered Emperor Zhou's palace and informed Emperor Zhou's maid of the matter. The female officer kept shouting at his bedside.
Emperor Zhou's sleep was not deep, and he woke up not long after.
"Is it dawn yet?!"
Emperor Zhou looked out the window and asked.
The female officer immediately knelt down in front of Emperor Zhou's couch and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was Yang Sicheng and Li Yushi outside the palace who had urgent matters and asked to see Your Majesty. That's why I had the courage to wake up Your Majesty."
When he heard it was Yang and Li, Emperor Zhou immediately woke up.
"The two of them have been asking for an audience all night, so there must be something urgent. If you wake me up in time, not only will you not do anything wrong, but you will also have merit! They are sent to the imperial study to meet, and they are also announced to have entered the palace."
As the palace door opened, Yang Qingyuan and Li Xunhuan were taken to the imperial study.
Half an hour later, Emperor Zhou also came to the study room.
Don't doubt efficiency. Changing clothes and combing hair was indeed a troublesome task for the ancients, let alone the emperor!
However, unlike the dragon robes of the past, Emperor Zhou was now wearing a loose outer robe and was dressed very casually.
Of course it's not the golden one in movies and TV shows, it's just a simple and loose white robe.
As long as the emperor is not a die-hard lover of gold, he will wear other clothes on ordinary days.
After all, when you go to court all year round, you wear a golden dragon robe. Even the style does not change, and everyone will get tired of wearing it.
Yang Qingyuan and Li Xunhuan had just finished their ceremony, and Yu Yanyi also arrived.
Compared with Emperor Zhou's neat clothes, Grand Scholar Yu looked a little disheveled.
Seeing Yu Yanyi's attire, Emperor Zhou also smiled, "Yu Qing's attire is quite rare!"
Seeing that Emperor Zhou rarely joked, Yu Yanyi also smiled bitterly and said, "I have violated my etiquette in front of you. Please forgive me."
After being seated, Emperor Zhou asked, "Yang Qing, Li Qing, you two entered the palace overnight, but what happened to the granary case!?"
As the person in charge of the granary case, Yang Qingyuan naturally answered the question at this time.
"Your Majesty, tonight, I and Li Yushi will coordinate with the Six Gates, the Shenhou Mansion and the Jingying soldiers to capture some of the masterminds behind the scenes, and recover more than 1.27 million shi of food. To be precise,
Numbers, I am still counting them."
Before entering the palace, Yang Qingyuan had already learned the approximate amount of food and grass from Di Zhiyuan.
Yang Qingyuan's words made Emperor Zhou, who had just woken up, fail to manage his expression, and his face was full of excitement.
"Is this serious?!"
"I dare not deceive my superiors! The grain is currently being counted and is being counted and shipped by the Beijing camp!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Emperor Zhou's originally slightly depressed spirit suddenly became strong.
Because of the blizzard in the north, Emperor Zhou had not slept well these past few days. The Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War were also busy transporting grain from the south.
The good news brought by Yang Qingyuan made Emperor Zhou feel completely relieved.
1.2 million shi of food is enough to relieve the threat of food shortage in the north.
"How did you solve the case?! Tell me quickly!"
Yang Qingyuan looked at Emperor Zhou who was sitting here with great interest, and briefly described the case. Of course, he also fully affirmed the constructive role played by Shenhou Mansion, Six Gates and Jingying in the operation tonight.
These are all considered half of our own people, and they should all share the profit and credit.
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Yang Qing and Li Qing are really witty and worthy of being the pillars of the country! The crisis in the North is all due to the efforts of you, and the credit goes to the country!"
After Yang Qingyuan was humble, he said, "I came to the palace overnight to ask the superiors to issue an order to transport the grain to Jizhou immediately."
Emperor Zhou nodded. Naturally, the sooner the food transportation matter is carried out, the better. If it is decided one day earlier, the disaster situation in Jizhou will be stabilized one day earlier.
"Yu Qing! Who do you think should be responsible for escorting this food!?"
Emperor Zhou looked at Yu Yanyi and asked for his opinion.
