In the splendid Jinluan Palace, some people were discussing around Zhang Kezai at the moment.
Sitting on the dragon chair is Emperor Lan Cao Li, who is more than 130 years old this year.
Although his spirit is still strong, his face inevitably bears traces of the passage of time.
As an emperor, he is not only blessed by the fate of the country, but also attacked by the fate of the country.
Therefore, those of royal bloodline cannot practice Qi Movement, and their lifespan is limited to a maximum of two hundred years.
At this moment, the majestic and solemn Emperor Lan sat high in the Golden Palace.
Under the thirty-third jade steps, several department officials from the Sanfa Department were arguing loudly.
Today, after the large court meeting, Wu Chengxiang, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department of the Three Laws Department, suddenly proposed to hold a small court meeting.
This will only happen if something extremely important happens.
Emperor Lan did not dare to ignore it, and in accordance with the request of Wu Chengxiang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, he summoned officials from various departments of the Three Laws Department to discuss the matter.
When everyone was in place, the Minister of Punishment struck the Demon Suppressing Guard with his first sword.
"Your Majesty! I am telling the Demon Guards to collude with thieves from outside the country to cause trouble to our country!"
Wu Chengxiang, the Minister of Punishment, bowed his body and reported to Emperor Lan in a deep voice.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall opened their eyes wide.
Standing next to Emperor Lan was a burly man in a splendid crown and robe, only three steps away from Emperor Lan.
Just from his standing position, you can see how much Emperor Lan trusts him.
This person is none other than Shentu Xiangzhi, the commander of the Demon Guards of Lan Kingdom.
His appearance is very ordinary, but standing there like an iron pillar, standing upright and nothing can shake him.
Hearing Wu Chengxiang's words at this time, even he couldn't help but cast his eyes over.
Emperor Lan had no expression on his face and said softly: "Speak!"
Wu Chengxiang said loudly: "The demon-suppressing guard Bian Guo is in charge of everything. After investigation by my subordinates, I found that he is from the Eastern Region."
This sentence surprised everyone present.
At this time, the people standing in the Jinluan Hall were all senior officials from various departments within the Sanfa Department.
Among them, there were more than ten people from the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai each participating.
Among them, the largest number of people belong to several subordinate departments of the Ministry of Punishment.
There are senior officials from the Six Gates, the Demon Suppressing Guard, and the Secret Agent Department.
In principle, the Demon Suppressing Guard actually falls under the jurisdiction of the six gates of the Ministry of Punishment.
But now, the Demon-Suppressing Guard has become faintly independent from the six-door sequence of the Ministry of Punishment.
Perhaps this is one of the main reasons why the Minister of Punishment launched an attack on the Demon Suppressing Guards today.
Everyone here is familiar with the fact that Bian Guozhen's demon guards command everything.
Because in the past few years, the impact of Vientiane on everyone's hearts has been too great.
The 'Red Robe Society' is an organization that has been wreaking havoc in the territory of Lan Kingdom for hundreds of years.
In these short three years, he was hunted down by a small demon-suppressing guard leader and his men. He had no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth. This shocked some people.
According to statistics from six doors, the 'Red Robe Club' has lost a large number of core members and backbones in the past three years.
Among them are Bai Wuchang, the messenger of Wuchang, and the five elders of the twelve earthly branches: Yinhu, Sishe, Chenlong, Shenhou and Haizhu.
There are also nearly 500 Jindan realm real people who are subordinate to the helm, and no less than 2,000 innate monks!
What a terrible achievement this is.
It has been more than three hundred years in the Central Region that so many Jindan realm practitioners have been killed or injured in a short period of time.
And the vassal states under the Lan Kingdom probably don't have so many masters even with the combined efforts of the two countries.
It can also be seen from this how far the ‘Red Robe Society’ has grown.
The most eye-catching thing among them was the discovery of the earthly branch elder Chen Long who had been lurking among the demon-suppressing guards for three hundred years.
He has been hiding for hundreds of years as Feng Xi, the governor of the Demon Guard of Hu State.
It is conceivable that in these hundreds of years, he has done many things to help the "Red Robe Society".
The 'Red Robe Society' has been unable to be eliminated and continues to grow. This person has played an extremely key role.
At this time, everyone present did not know that just today, Zhang Ke killed more than two hundred red-robed golden elixirs in Gan State.
Among them are three elders of the Earthly Branches of the Red Robe Society: Chou Niu, Mao Rabbit and Youji.
It can be said that at this time, the organization "Red Robe Society" has ceased to exist in name only.
As long as the leader 'Wuxian' is found, the 'Red Robe Society' will immediately fall apart.
At this time, everyone was shocked when they heard Wu Chengxiang saying that the Demon Suppressing Guards who commanded Wanxiang were from outside the realm.
It should be noted that within the thirty-seven countries that belong to the Lan Kingdom, the current ‘Divine Eye’ Wanxiang has become the most worshiped idol of the new generation.
Even Emperor Lan couldn't help but sit up straight after hearing Wu Chengxiang's words.
"Wu Aiqing, is this true?"
A sound as thick as a bell echoed in the Jinluan Palace.
"Your Majesty! This is information obtained by Yan Gongju, the secret agent under my command, personally from the Eastern Region."
The blue light flashed in Shentu Xiangzhi's eyes, and he narrowed his eyes slightly to look at the expressions of the officials in the hall.
I found that most people looked surprised, but a few of my subordinates looked a little too calm.
After listening to the words of the Minister of Punishment, Emperor Lan pondered for a moment and said:
"Yan Gongju is here!"
In the main hall, a handsome man in black stepped out of the queue, bowed and said:
"Dark Agent Yan Gongju meets with His Majesty the Emperor!"
Lan Huang's voice was very slow, but full of oppression and depth.
"Is what you say true?"
Yan Gongju bowed and said:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, after personal investigation by Wei Chen, it is undoubtedly that the current commander of the Demon Guards of Bian Kingdom, Wanxiang, is indeed a monk from the Eastern Region."
Emperor Lan made a slight 'hmm' sound in his nose and asked again:
"Who is the Demon Guard of Bian Kingdom in the palace?"
In the main hall, three people came out of the queue and bowed in salute.
"Weng Shaochun, the governor of Bian State, comes to see His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Yang Chongde, the governor of Bian State, paid a visit to His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Bian Guo Zhenfu's envoy Bai Kun comes to see His Majesty the Emperor!"
After the ceremony, the three of them stood up and stood in silence with their hands down, waiting for questioning.
Emperor Lan's eyes were half open and half closed, looking at the three of them expressionlessly.
"Are the words of the Dark Agent true?"
The three of them looked at each other, and Yang Chongde spoke first.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Reporting to Your Majesty! The Demon Suppressing Guard Vientiane Commander Shi Chen personally recruited.
In the past three years, he has relentlessly pursued the "Red Robe Society" and dealt a heavy blow to this evil organization that has been wreaking havoc for hundreds of years.
Perhaps, it is because the Commander of Vientiane has traced the clues of certain people.
That's why he was suddenly accused today. The purpose was simply to give the "Red Robe Society" an opportunity to escape and hide.
Its meaning is hard to understand, but its heart can be killed!"
Yang Chongde's words were very straightforward, and he directly pointed the finger at the Minister of Punishment who made the accusation.
"Well! There seems to be some truth to this statement!"
Emperor Lan had a thoughtful look on his face and murmured softly to himself.
Everyone in the main hall was well-educated. Even though Emperor Lan's voice was very soft, everyone still heard him clearly.
Wu Chengxiang, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, was so anxious that he could not care about anything else. He turned to Yang Chongde and shouted:
"I'm talking about Wanxiang's true identity. Why should the governor of Yangzhen avoid the important and take the easy and make unreasonable suspicions about me?"
As soon as this statement came out, several people secretly expressed their disapproval.
Sure enough, Yang Chongde quickly shouted and asked without waiting for his reaction:
"I didn't mention that you were a remnant of the 'Red Robe'. Why do you think I was talking about you? Could it be..."
After a brief pause, he suddenly said loudly: "Do you really think you are a member of the Red Robe Club?"
Wu Chengxiang blurted out: "I'm not..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yang Chongde asked directly:
"Then why did you propose to investigate the Commander-in-Chief of All Things at the critical moment of pursuing the 'Red Robe Society'.
You clearly know that only the commander of Wanxiang has the ability to trace the clues to the red-robed leader ‘Wuxian’.
But now you are obstructing it at this moment.
Tell me, what are your intentions?"
Yang Chongde almost shouted the last question, and his voice echoed in the Jinluan Palace for a long time.
Wu Chengxiang couldn't bear the swarming pressure and couldn't help but take a step back.
This obvious show of weakness immediately made many people look ridiculed.
As soon as Wu Chengxiang stepped back, he knew something was wrong, and his face instantly turned red.
He took a step forward and said loudly: "Yang Chongde! You..."
Emperor Lan was sitting on the dragon chair, his right hand was pressing his forehead and gently rubbing it, then he waved his hand lightly.
Shentu Xiangzhi immediately shouted: "Quiet!"
The two words were not loud, but they struck the ears of everyone in the hall like a heavy drum.
For a moment, there was silence in the hall.
Lan Huang's rich voice sounded.
"Who introduced Vientiane to the Demon-Suppressing Guards?"
Bai Kun took a step forward, bowed and said, "Report to Your Majesty! I personally recommend Wanxiang to you!"
Lan Huang glanced down and said with a smile: "Oh! It's Bai Xiang'er!"
Bai Kun is actually more than forty years older than Lan Huang.
The two met by accident in the past, but Bai Kun devoted himself to spiritual practice in his early years and was far inferior to Lan Huang in terms of worldly sophistication.
He was impressed by Emperor Lan, and always followed Emperor Lan's lead in his actions.
Because Bai Kun was brave and had the power of the three elephants, he was nicknamed Bai Xiang'er by Emperor Lan at that time.
At this time, Emperor Lan saw Bai Kun, who still looked young, and remembered that he was dozens of years older than him.
I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
He said calmly: "Well! Let's talk about Wanxiang!"
"yes!"
Bai Kun quickly organized his thoughts in his mind and said something.
"This matter starts from three years ago. That year, I was leading people to inspect illegal activities in Bian State.
Suddenly one day I received a summons and learned that there was a "Red Robe Society" near Bazhan Mountain who was offering blood sacrifices to the people.
I didn’t dare to be negligent, so I came immediately after hearing the news, and met Wanxiang Zhenren for the first time in the village where the blood sacrifice had been made.”
The other people in the hall were actually very curious about Master Wanxiang, and they all listened carefully.
Just listen to Bai Kun continue:
"That was the first time I met Wan Xiang in person. Wan Xiang's real name is Xie Shilun, and he is a disciple of the Danqing Sect.
There was another person beside him at that time, named Zhang Changyan, who was his junior brother.
Through inquiries, we learned that three brothers from the Danqing Sect accidentally discovered that the ‘Red Robe Society’ was offering blood sacrifices to the people.
The three of them broke into the village in anger and tried to rescue the people, but were ambushed by the evil cultivators of the "Red Robe Society".
After a big battle, Xin Zhou, the youngest of the three, died on the spot, and Wan Xiang was also seriously injured."
Someone praised: "What a man!"
The person who spoke out was Bai Shihuan, the minister of Dali Temple. He and Wu Chengxiang had always had a bad relationship, so he deliberately broke up the relationship at this moment.
Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Yushitai are collectively called the Three Law Divisions, and there is actually a lot of filth in them.
