When the news of the beheading reached Liu Cheng's ears, he collapsed to the ground in despair and fainted for a time.
The overwhelming hatred filled Liu Cheng's heart.
In prison, Shen Yunfan learned about this and sighed deeply.
"You don't have to worry about the Liu family's affairs anymore. Now you go to find out whether there is any collusion between He Chengyun and Zheng Guo. You must find out clearly."
"As ordered." The Wulu ghosts retreated.
…
In the palace, the atmosphere in the palace was a little depressing. A figure with a sinister eyebrow was wandering around the palace at this time. When the eunuchs and maids saw him, they all took a detour!
This is He Jiancheng who entered the palace yesterday!
Ever since he entered the palace yesterday, he has been acting quite arrogantly. First he beat a few eunuchs, and then he openly went to the maid's residence to make mischief. In the end, he attracted too many people, so he did not rape the maid.
But he was the son of Ding Guogong, and no one dared to punish him because of Ding Guogong's current power.
That afternoon, He Jiancheng was wandering around the palace again, looking for some fun. Unexpectedly, he happened to bump into Wei Ning when he turned a corner.
"Ning'er? Do you still know your uncle?" He Jiancheng was happy. He had been away from the palace for many years. He hadn't seen these relatives in the royal family for a long time.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a few years, Wei Ning, the yellow-haired girl at that time, has now grown into a graceful little beauty.
Wei Ning looked at it for a long time and seemed to recognize He Jiancheng's identity, so he nodded and took two steps back.
For some reason, she was a little afraid of He Jiancheng's eyes.
There is greed and desire in this look.
"What's the matter with you?"
He Jiancheng rolled his eyes and replied: "To be honest, I went to the martial arts field to box for a while today, and now I am extremely thirsty. However, I am not familiar with this place and I couldn't find a place to drink water."
As he spoke, he panted and pretended to be very thirsty.
Wei Ning is a kind-hearted girl, so she didn't think much after hearing this and said quickly: "Oh, then go to my place and have some tea."
"Thank you Ning'er!" He Jiancheng bowed his hand.
When Wei Ning turned around, his lustful eyes fell on Wei Ning's slender waist and hips, and he licked his lips.
The princess of the Southern Wei Dynasty is really charming.
The two of them quickly returned to Fengyang Pavilion one after the other. Wei Ning was pouring water in front of him. Before he could say anything, He Jiancheng from behind suddenly hugged him!
Wei Ning was startled and asked with a pale face: "What are you doing?"
"Ning'er, please keep your voice down. You'll feel better soon." He Jiancheng was already in a state of confusion.
He had been holding back in the army for so many days, and he couldn't bear it anymore. Yesterday, he broke into the palace maid's residence to vent his anger.
But unfortunately, someone stopped me.
But now it seems that those palace maids can't compare to the stunning beauty of this little princess of Southern Wei.
"Stop! Help!!" Wei Ning shouted.
"What's the use of shouting? Who dares to care about me?" He Jiancheng sneered, his posture actually gave him a proud feeling of dominating the world. He knew that his father was extremely powerful and no one dared to touch him.
But just when his bestiality was unleashed, a figure rushed in quickly.
The next second, a vase was smashed down hard, and He Jiancheng was instantly bruised and bloody!
"Who dares to hit me?!" It took a long time for He Jiancheng to come to his senses. He was a little hysterical. But when he looked back, he was facing Wei Qing, who was wearing a dragon robe and had an angry look.
He was stunned immediately...
In Cining Palace, He Chengyun was discussing important matters with Song Lingxi.
"Liu Cheng was imprisoned, his two sons died, and his adopted son was also imprisoned in the capital prison. Xu Kailin sent me a thousand taels of gold and begged for mercy."
"Of the three powerful ministers of the Southern Wei Dynasty, only Cao Shan, the Minister of War, is left." He Chengyun tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair, as if in deep thought.
As long as all the three powerful officials are eliminated, the power of the Southern Wei Dynasty will be at your fingertips!
However, Cao Shan was not easy to deal with. Because the 20,000 imperial guards outside the city were nominally obeying the emperor's orders, but in fact they were
He took orders from the Minister of War, so he had an army at his disposal.
Although the Royal Forest Army is a ragtag group, they are still numerous in number. They are the last obstacle standing in the way of He Chengyun.
Therefore, He Chengyun had to pull out this nail.
"My lord, I have a plan to get rid of Cao Shan." Song Lingxi stepped forward and whispered the plan.
After hearing this, He Chengyun's eyes flashed and he said, "Yes, let's do it."
Song Lingxi nodded and went down to arrange the matter.
Tonight, the Cao family will surely shed a river of blood...
As soon as he left, a eunuch came from Cining Palace and shouted hurriedly: "Oh no, my lord, something happened to the prince!"
"What could happen in the palace?"
"He wanted to cheat on the princess, but Your Majesty caught him!"
When He Chengyun heard this, his expression changed, his whole body trembled, and the tea cup in his hand fell to the ground!
"Take me there quickly!" He stood up quickly.
The two rushed to the Hall of Supreme Harmony one after another. At this time, the place was filled with imperial guards. He Jiancheng knelt outside and could not move.
Wei Ning huddled in the arms of Wei Qing, who was wearing a dragon robe, and looked frightened.
Seeing He Chengyun coming, He Jiancheng, who was on the ground, quickly shouted: "Father, please let them go quickly, my legs hurt so much!"
He Chengyun glared at him and quickly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, what's going on?"
"Ask your son." Wei Qing looked cold.
Today, He Jiancheng wanted to cheat on Wei Ning and really touched her nerves!
Anyone could see that such a big battle would definitely punish He Jiancheng severely. He Chengyun only complained in his heart and his face became solemn.
How can he keep his son?
After just a moment of hesitation, he said decisively: "Your Majesty, this beast should be severely punished!"
"How would you punish me?"
"You should have your hands cut off and your eyes blinded!" He Chengyun's face was full of sternness, as if the person kneeling on the ground was not his own son!
Wei Qing was startled after hearing this. He Chengyun's reaction was a bit beyond her expectation. With this look, there must be a back-up plan.
As expected, He Chengyun continued: "I will take him back now and punish him with my own hands!"
Punish with your own hands? Isn’t that just trying to protect you?
Wei Qing sneered: "What if you don't punish me?"
"Don't worry, I will bring him, his hands and eyes to see you tomorrow!" He Chengyun said fiercely.
Everyone was shocked by the coldness in the tone. Wei Qing also swallowed his saliva, thinking to himself, could He Chengyun be so cruel?
However, He Jiancheng panicked when he heard this.
He said anxiously: "Father, didn't you say it doesn't matter what I do? Didn't you say that this palace belongs to..."
Halfway through his words, He Chengyun suddenly snatched a stick from the imperial guards and hit He Jiancheng on the head with the stick.
He Jiancheng rolled his eyes and passed out.
This is only half the truth.
Wei Qing's heart moved, and he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Grandpa, what does he say the palace belongs to?"
