Twin Space: The Evil King Should Never Think of Taking the Throne
Chapter 70: Interlocking Layout
Yun Feiyang and Hu Yanlang fought heartily, and in a blink of an eye, more than a hundred rounds had passed. Yun Yiduo couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw this. She didn't expect that Hu Yanlang was really a hidden talent. People who are good at hiding are particularly scheming. They must be careful of this person in the future.
Just when Yun Yiduo clenched her hands, too nervous to know what to do, Cen Song whispered:
"Don't worry, Yang'er can win."
Yun Yiduo hummed lightly and tried to relax herself while sitting there. However, her eyes never left her brother. As expected, after another ten moves, Yun Feiyang saw Hu Yanlang's weakness and kicked him out of the Golden Palace.
When Hu Yanlang was kicked out, the hatred in his eyes was so obvious that Yun Yiduo shuddered unconsciously. However, this chill was soon drowned out by cheers.
Soon, there were voices of praise for Yun Feiyang in the hall. What kind of hero is born young? What kind of young talent is a pillar of the future? In short, everyone's eyes turned to Yun Feiyang, so someone asked what everyone was thinking.
"May I know the name of this young hero?"
"My name is Yun Feiyang!"
Yun Feiyang shook the soft gauze naturally, said his name lightly, and then walked back to his seat with a dignified pace. However, his words "Yun Feiyang" attracted the attention of many ministers. Among them, the one who was most touched was the Censor Xing who was about to impeach Guo Sheng.
"Yun Feiyang, a member of the Yun clan. What an unexpected gain. It's a pity that the head of the Huo family did not attend today's banquet. However, you are with Guo Sheng today. I don't know if the emperor can protect you!"
Lord Xing was thinking to himself, but he heard Hu Yanlang's roar coming from outside the hall.
"Guo Sheng, you are such a treacherous villain. That's not what you said before you left. You said you could definitely get Liu Shuo some winter cloth, and you didn't have to worry about the Central Plains people objecting. How could you turn your back on me when you came to the Imperial City?"
The scolding startled everyone, and those who didn't know what was going on started to discuss. From what the prince said, it seemed that Guo Shaohou had contact with him and was plotting something? Guo Sheng smiled when he heard Hu Yanlang's roar.
As expected, the Huo family had already colluded with Liu Shuo and planned to deal him a fatal blow at this palace banquet. Just when everyone was still confused, Censor Xing strode forward, looking grief-stricken and said:
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
After hearing what Huyan Lang said, Emperor Zhangde knew in his heart that someone in the court was colluding with Liu Shuo, and he felt upset. Seeing Censor Xing like this, he felt even more unhappy.
"Old Censor, you'd better think it over before you speak."
Emperor Zhangde solemnly reminded the censor, giving him one last chance. However, the censor Xing had no choice but to shoot, so he said word by word:
"According to my investigation, Guo Shaohou and Liu Shuo have long been colluding and have been secretly communicating with each other, exploiting the people of the northern border. The last grain robbery, the fall of Yuecheng and the massacre, as well as this peace negotiation crisis were all caused by Guo Shaohou. He is truly a traitor who collaborates with the enemy and sells out his country, Your Majesty."
"How dare you, old censor! Sheng'er is my most trusted official. How can you slander him so casually?"
"If Your Majesty does not believe it, you can search his Shaohou Mansion. There is evidence of his treason in his study. Moreover, he was once one of the heirs to the throne favored by the Emperor Emeritus. He also has a chance to ascend to the throne, Your Majesty!"
Hearing the words of the old censor, Emperor Zhangde tightened his hands hidden in his sleeves. This old censor actually brought up the joke of the retired emperor. What did a ten-year-old child know back then? He was hunted down all the way for an idea, and now it has become an excuse for everyone to criticize him.
"Impossible, Brother Sheng is not that kind of person."
The first person to raise objections was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he had no evidence and could not prove Guo Sheng's innocence.
"Your Highness is kind-hearted and virtuous, so he naturally does not want to believe in this man's sins. Your Majesty, I am investigating Young Marquis Guo only after receiving a request from the Luocheng garrison commander. Please summon the Luocheng garrison commander to the palace."
At this moment, everything seemed to be under the control of Censor Xing. Seeing this, several ministers around him also knelt down and begged, and the atmosphere was extremely tense for a while.
"Xuan!"
In desperation, Emperor Zhangde summoned the commander of Luocheng. The commander's legs weakened when he saw the emperor, and he knelt on the ground and cried, saying how hard he had worked to defend the city, but Guo Sheng ignored Luocheng, causing it to be besieged and the people to suffer. Finally, when he was about to win the battle against the enemy, Guo Sheng arrived and took away his credit, and even asked the people to pay tribute to him.
Upon hearing this, the Yun siblings and Cen Song were so angry that their veins were bulging. What a Luocheng defender who was so good at confusing right and wrong. He should have been killed at that time.
With the Luocheng garrison commander's cry, even if Emperor Zhangde trusted Guo Sheng, he had to search his mansion. So, Wei Changying was sent to search the mansion, and the atmosphere in the whole hall became even weirder.
In order to ease the embarrassment, the prince ordered people to prepare songs and dances, and the banquet went on as usual. Outside the Erchong Palace, Dongfang Xiang and Seventh Sister saw the guards go out. They knew that this was the beginning of the action. They observed the movements around them, but saw a tightly sealed carriage parked in a corner.
"Dongfang, you stay here and watch. I'll go check on the carriage."
Lin Yinian tiptoed to the side of the carriage, but heard a woman's voice coming from inside.
"Xiao Ru, if I am summoned to the palace this time, I am afraid that I will be in great danger. This is all my savings, take it, and find a place where no one knows you and live a good life!"
"Miss, no, I don't want it."
"Take it. Assassinating the emperor is a capital crime. No matter what, I will not survive."
boom!
Lin Yinian was terrified. Was the person inside an assassin who wanted to kill His Majesty? She was so scared that her hands and feet went limp. She wondered why she always heard some incredible things.
She stumbled back to Dongfang Xiang and whispered what she heard in his ear, which also frightened Dongfang Xiang. Since they knew it was an assassin, they should have arrested him immediately, but there were so many carriages, maids and servants here, and if the assassin was pushed too far, he would cause a riot.
"You and I will keep an eye on that carriage and wait and see what happens."
After coming up with a plan, the two men stared intently at the carriage, and soon Wei Changying came back from outside with a gangster tied to him. Lin Yinian recognized the man's identity at a glance.
This person was Shan Jiang, the thief who had dinner with Master Huo and plotted to frame Guo Sheng. Behind them followed Zhang Qiong, who was dressed in green. Zhang Qiong did not follow them to the main hall, but sat in the carriage of the Shaohou Mansion, quietly waiting for the result.
