The world of film and television starts from a young age.

Chapter 1433 ends, famous in Kyoto, ignoring Emperor Qing
The retreat of the Second Prince meant that this incident had almost come to an end.

Censor Wei committed suicide, and a new member of the Wei family was pulled out. He was Censor Wei's eldest son, and together with Minister Huang and Doctor Ma, they began to select people.

This time, Minister Huang and the other two no longer dared to play tricks and honestly chose their own family members.

Even more bloody scenes occurred. All the previous cruelty was decided by Zhou Chen. Even though it was bloody and had a great impact, because they could not resist and not many people died, it was not really despair for many people.

But at this moment, starting from the selection of people by Minister Huang and the other two, that was the real despair.

Family ties are sometimes very strong, but sometimes they are fragile and shattered at the slightest touch, especially when facing life and death.

Roars of despair, curses of foul language, sons cursed fathers, wives cursed husbands, mothers cursed sons...

Such a scene is absolutely moving, but for Xingwei and the people who came here with Zhou Chen, they might feel a little uncomfortable, but they will definitely not sympathize. After all, it was these three families who killed Lao Dou's family.

My own comrades are dead. Should I still sympathize with you murderers?

It was very fair to let the three families choose twenty lives. The Huang and Ma families chose seven, and the Wei family chose six.

But the actual death toll is not this number, because some people could not accept this opportunity and chose to commit suicide.

So, starting from the time when Minister Huang and the other two made their choice, a total of twenty-three people died. Three of them committed suicide, and all of them were women. Two of them could not accept that their children were chosen, so they died with their children. Another one could not accept the death of her husband, so she chose to commit suicide for love.

Even in the family of such a murderer, there are still people with true feelings, but many things are sometimes beyond our control.

The Huang family's mansion collapsed, and the road in front of the mansion was now stained red with blood. In addition, since the beginning of the arrest and the start of the operation tonight, the death toll has exceeded sixty people.

A bloodbath in Kyoto might be an exaggeration, but it can also be considered a bloodbath in the Huang Mansion.

After a while, Tong Quan came to the carriage to report.

"Master, it has been resolved. What should we do next?"

"Take the bodies of those three away and feed them to the dogs. Don't worry about the others. Someone will come to clean the place. Let's go."

Today's goal has been achieved, and Zhou Chen did not stay any longer. As Tong Quan conveyed his orders, everyone evacuated in an orderly manner.

After returning, Zhou Chen asked Sun Yi to take the Star Guards to find a suitable burial place for Lao Dou's family. Then he asked Tong Quan to take out some silver and distribute it to the elderly people who came to the house today, and made it clear that what he had said before was true.

If anyone among them is willing to join the Anyuan Marquis's Mansion, they can bring their families with them and become members of the Anyuan Marquis's Mansion in the future.

After resolving these issues, Zhou Chen put the battle flag back into the box and placed it back under the old uncle's spirit tablet. This chess piece would not be used again, so just let it stay in the ancestral hall.

Although Zhou Chen's main force has left, tonight's turmoil is not over, and even greater turmoil and impacts are still to come.

Inspection Institute.

Chen Pingping hadn't fallen asleep the whole time. Under the dim light, he listened quietly to Shadow's report.

Before, someone from the First Division had been reporting the situation to him, but he knew that Shadow must have seen more, so Shadow's report was more important.

Shadow told Chen Pingping everything that happened tonight from beginning to end, and added his own feelings at the end.

"You're right. Fortunately, I didn't go to spar with him, otherwise he might have slapped me to death with one palm. Grandmaster, you're really not a human being. In comparison, it's safer to spar with Master Wuzhuwu."

Chen Pingping ignored his sigh and made an evaluation of Zhou Chen in his heart.

"From the way he does things, his methods may be vicious, but he is not a bloodthirsty person. He is very opinionated and has his own way of doing things. However, he did not give the Second Prince any face and even attacked him. Although he did not hurt the Second Prince, it can be seen that after becoming a Grand Master, he no longer has awe for the imperial power."

Shadow said, "Isn't this normal? When you reach the level of a Grandmaster, you are no longer considered an ordinary person. No matter how powerful the imperial power is, it cannot restrain a Grandmaster. I think his behavior is in line with the Grandmaster's status."

He evaluated me based on my status as a warrior. I am already a grandmaster. If I still have to respect the imperial power, wouldn’t my achievement as a grandmaster be in vain?

As for Hong Sixiang, the legendary grandmaster in the palace, that guy is not a grandmaster, he is just a eunuch. Moreover, there is no substantial evidence to prove that Hong Sixiang is the mysterious grandmaster in the palace.

Anyway, he just felt that compared to the grandmaster in the Qing Palace who was hiding and whose identity was unknown, a grandmaster like Zhou Chen who was free and easy and did whatever he wanted was more in line with the image of a grandmaster in his mind.

Chen Pingping was also a ninth-rank master in the past, so he naturally understood Shadow's thoughts.

"That being said, this is Kyoto. Our Majesty values ​​the imperial power the most. I wonder what he would think of this little Grandmaster Zhou."

As the biggest lackey under Emperor Qing, he is naturally one of the people who knows Emperor Qing best. Emperor Qing's ambition is to conquer the world and imperial power is supreme. When he encounters Zhou Chen, a young, aggressive, domineering and powerful young grandmaster, what means will he use to win him over?

Thinking about his meeting with Zhou Chen during the day and the conversations with Zhou Chen, he felt that a person like Zhou Chen could not be restrained by any power.

"This young Grandmaster Zhou is as powerful as Ku He and Si Gu Jian. I'm afraid he will be a more troublesome person than Ye Liuyun."

Chen Pingping is not a grandmaster and cannot understand the fighting power of a grandmaster, but he estimates that Zhou Chen should not be weaker than Ku He and Si Gu Jian. If he is given more time, with Zhou Chen's talent and ability, he may be stronger than the other four grandmasters.

"I wonder if he will give me the honor to visit my Chen Garden."

In the East Palace, when the prince learned about the situation, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"The second brother was really stupid this time. He knew Zhou Chen was a grandmaster, but he still tried to save face beyond his ability. Did he really think that everyone would give him the face of a prince?"

Li Chengze is the biggest threat to his position as crown prince. He will be very happy whenever he sees Li Chengze being humiliated.

"I must try to win over Zhou Chen. If I can get the support of a great master, even His Majesty will definitely value me more."

In Changxin Palace, Princess Li Yunrui's eyes were shining and she looked extremely charming.

Just from her subordinates' descriptions of Zhou Chen, she was already a little fascinated. This magical little Master Zhou seemed to be just as she had imagined, a very charming man.

"The second brother made a mistake this time. He was also stupid. He offended the Grand Master for a mere vice minister of the Ministry of Justice. After all, he is young and has never seen a big scene. There are only five Grand Masters in the world. If he is so easily frightened by the imperial power, what kind of Grand Master is he?"

"This young Grandmaster Zhou has good methods, but he is a little soft-hearted. He wants to avenge his subordinates, but he is soft-hearted. Doesn't he understand the principle of cutting the grass at its roots? Or is he too confident in his own strength, so he is not afraid of these things at all?"

"Hahaha, interesting, really so interesting. I want to find a way to meet him. I can't wait any longer..."

In comparison, Emperor Qing's bedroom seemed very quiet at this time.

After learning the whole process, Emperor Qing waved his hand and asked Eunuch Hou to leave, and he was the only one left in the hall.

"He destroyed the whole family with one palm strike. This is indeed the fighting power of a great master. I heard that his best skill is the sword. How powerful would he be if he had a sword in his hand?"

He himself is a grandmaster, so he knows very well how terrifying the combat power of a grandmaster is. However, even among grandmasters, there are actually differences in strength, it's just not so obvious.

But Zhou Chen is obviously different. As a 19-year-old grandmaster, no one dares to imagine whether he will make further progress in the future. But no matter what, he definitely has more potential than the four of them, that is beyond doubt.

This is also what he fears the most. He has not yet figured out a solution for the other three grand masters, and now there is an even more powerful one like Zhou Chen.

But fortunately, Zhou Chen is the grandmaster of their Qing Kingdom. If he was the grandmaster of Northern Qi or Dongyi City, he would be even more unable to sleep now.

Emperor Qing was in a very bad mood when he thought about Zhou Chen slapping Li Chengze, which although missed was a warning.

He has always believed that imperial power is supreme. He would not allow anyone to override his imperial power, not even a grandmaster, so Zhou Chen's behavior angered him.

But he knew better that he had no way to deal with Zhou Chen now. Zhou Chen's fighting ability was no weaker than his. As the king of a country, he certainly could not go and fight Zhou Chen in a duel just because of his own likes and dislikes.

Therefore, before he was absolutely sure, he could only endure and wait for the opportunity, just like when he dealt with Ye Qingmei, waiting for an opportunity with the right time and place.

The news spread throughout Kyoto overnight, and by the next day, most people in Kyoto had already known about the tragic situation in the Huang Mansion.

After all, only a few people know the truth about what happened, so all kinds of outrageous rumors have emerged. But one thing is true.

It was the Grand Master who took action last night. The Huang Mansion was destroyed because of the Grand Master's palm.

Some people didn't believe it, but some did. Many people went to the Huang Mansion to see it, especially those who had martial arts skills. They all wanted to see the skills of the grand master.

The fifth grandmaster in the world is the heir to the Earl of Anyuan's Mansion. Zhou Chen, a young grandmaster who has not yet been crowned, has become the most famous figure in Kyoto overnight.

When ordinary people heard the news, they would at most exclaim in amazement and then go on with their business. But for those powerful officials, the meaning was different.

The Grand Master is the strongest warrior in the world and the country's most powerful strategic weapon. Having one more Grand Master is definitely a great thing for the Qing Kingdom.

However, what Zhou Chen did last night made many people feel cold in their hearts. He completely ignored the law, lynched the third-rank officials of the court, and slaughtered them at will. This made the powerful people who were used to being high and mighty, even if there were reasons, really afraid in their hearts.

Zhou Chen didn't care what others thought of him or how they viewed him. Today he did nothing else but presided over the funeral of his father's family in person. Everyone who had gone with him yesterday also attended the funeral.

When Lao Dou's family died, there was no sound, but because of Zhou Chen's presence, their funeral became a little different. It's just that when people die, it's like a light goes out, and they can't see anything.

After the funeral, Zhou Chen had just returned home when Tong Quan came to report that many people in Kyoto had sent invitations and gifts today.

Tong Quan did not dare to accept the gifts, but he accepted the invitations. Many of them were visiting cards, and some were invitations to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen just took a casual look and found that the people who sent the invitations were all extraordinary, but he casually threw them aside.

In the late afternoon, Emperor Qing's oral order came from the palace.

The person who delivered the message was Eunuch Hou, a close confidant of Emperor Qing. He was responsible for delivering the oral instructions, but after drinking two cups of tea, he still hadn't seen Zhou Chen.

Seeing Tong Quan coming back from reporting, he hurriedly asked, "Is Mr. Zhou not here?"

Tong Quan looked apologetic: "Eunuch, I'm so sorry, our young master's old injury relapsed and he is recovering, so he can't see anyone."

Eunuch Hou was stunned: "Mr. Zhou is a great master, how could he be injured?"

Tong Quan showed a sad look: "It was the injury I got when I was fighting with Si Gu Jian before. I had to fight him last night, which caused the old injury to relapse. I don't know what the eunuch wants. I can help pass on the message."

Eunuch Hou remained calm, but he didn't believe it at all. He thought it was a lie. He didn't look like he was injured at all yesterday.

But of course he couldn't show it. Instead, he spoke Emperor Qing's order in a friendly manner, saying that there would be a court meeting tomorrow and asked Zhou Chen to attend.

After seeing off Eunuch Hou, Tong Quan came to Zhou Chen's yard, where Zhou Chen was carving with a chisel.

"You want me to attend the court meeting tomorrow? I have no official position, and I have not inherited a title. Why should I attend the court meeting tomorrow? Tong Quan, please write a memorial for me, saying that even if my injury is serious and I cannot move, I will not attend the court meeting."

Tong Quan hesitated: "Master, this is His Majesty's order after all. Is this really okay?"

Zhou Chen said calmly: "What's wrong with that? A Grand Master should behave like a Grand Master. Although I don't care much about these things, I can't lower the Grand Master's status. What's more, His Majesty may not really want to see me. After all, no matter how deep a person hides, he will be afraid of revealing flaws."

Emperor Qing has been hiding his martial arts skills for a long time because he is afraid that people will find out that he is a grandmaster.

Zhou Chen is a grandmaster, someone at the same level as him, so he would naturally worry about being seen through. But as an emperor, it is impossible for him not to summon Zhou Chen, the new grandmaster.

Zhou Chen felt that if he refused to go, Emperor Qing would not blame him but would be relieved instead.

It just so happened that Zhou Chen didn't want to see the old emperor Qing, and was too lazy to deal with him hypocritically.

Given Emperor Qing's personality, from the moment he became the Grand Master, it was destined that they would not be able to have a normal relationship between monarch and subject.

What's more, Zhou Chen also disliked Emperor Qing, and now he has the right to ignore him. If Emperor Qing does not plot against him or target him, they can at least maintain a friendly relationship on the surface. If Emperor Qing wants to plot against him, he will not be polite to Emperor Qing.

Of course, due to the mission, he still had to find an opportunity to fight with Emperor Qing.

But Zhou Chen didn’t know that although he did not attend the court meeting, there was a big commotion at the court meeting the next day because of him.

Third update!
