ps: Third update. pb

The sky was dim and bright, and it was already the fifth watch.

But at this time, at the foot of the imperial city, many officials had gathered in front of the Xihua Gate. Today, instead of paying a duet in the morning, people came in twos and threes on carriages. Even if they were usually divided into two or even several factions, but here we are. At this time, they all greeted each other with smiles and complimented each other, quite like friends who had been friends for many years.

Not long after, someone shouted, "It seems that Prime Minister Cai's carriage has arrived."

"Yes, the person coming over there should be Wang Shaozai."

"Yes, I recognize that frame."

"Finally here...it's a bit cold..."

A carriage came first, and a servant went up to help Cai Jing out of the carriage. Wang Fu also arrived next to him. As soon as the two of them got off, they were surrounded by many officials, either complimenting or asking questions about where they were today. How to behave.

"Everyone got the news about me and Wang Shaozai yesterday, so I'm afraid you have a lot of questions in your mind." Cai Jing is old after all, and his throat was a little itchy after being questioned just now.

He cleared his throat and said: "Yesterday I discussed with Wang Shaozai about disaster relief. Now the number of hungry people outside the city is increasing every day. As a result, it is unbearable for the rich and powerful officials alone, let alone other places."

Originally, the officials in this department were all from Cai Jing and Wang Fu. When they heard the news, they naturally would not object, and even thought that this was the right thing to do.

"Xiang Cai is right. If this continues, tomorrow my whole family will be begging for food on the street."

"Who says otherwise? Prime Minister Cai and Young Master are waiting for me."

At this time, the time has come, Xihua Gate opened, and a group of officials surrounded the two giants and walked all the way to Chui Gong Hall. pb Cai Jing enjoys this feeling of being surrounded. When he came here, he naturally had a suspicion in his heart, but the disaster relief was just an excuse. The fundamental reason was to find out what the official said.

After passing Chengtian Gate, there are long palace walls and green brick roads, arranged in an orderly manner, and it is indescribably comfortable to walk on them. Along the way, Wang Fu beside him frowned and said, "Xiang Cai, do you... find it strange why there are no guards checking today, and there are no crossbows on the palace wall."

Cai Jing also had some doubts in his eyes, and shook his head again after a moment, "Young Master, you are too worried. This is the palace, and you and I are important ministers in the court. Who dares to harm His Majesty's humerus?"

Perhaps for this reason, Wang Fu put aside his suspicions and walked step by step through Jiying Hall and Huangyi Gate. Not far ahead was Chuigong Hall. Before he passed, a person stood waiting on the imperial steps.

"Lieutenant Gao?"

"Gao Qiu?"

Cai Jing and Wang Fu looked at each other and hurried over. Before they could speak, the other party said: "You two, Gao Qiu is very polite. All the ministers came together, so I'm afraid I won't be able to see your majesty."

"Why is this?" Cai Jing asked.

"Why are you here, Lieutenant?" Wang Fu's eyelids twitched, feeling that something bad had happened.

Gao Qiu was the Commander-in-Chief of the Third Government Office, and he earned his current status by playing Cuju. Naturally, he was not a big shot in the eyes of Cai Jing and Wang Fu. Moreover, the three of them seemed to have no connection, but they were all jealous of the Commander-in-Chief of the Third Government Office. Bian Liangcheng's public security and defense military power.

"I had free time today, so I came here specifically to see Your Majesty come and play Cuju, but I was told by Huangmen that Your Majesty was not available today and had gone to Mirage Tower instead." Gao Qiu smiled bitterly and prepared to leave.

Cai Jing said: "Lieutenant Gao, please stay. I'm here to see your Majesty today to discuss something. Why don't we come together?"

Gao Qiu looked around and smiled, "I'm afraid it may be inconvenient today, so I'd better go ahead and say goodbye."

An official stood up and blamed himself: "Prime Minister Cai, this person really doesn't know what is good and what is evil."

"Shut up!"

Cai Jing scolded, but looked at Gao Qiu's leaving figure with doubtful eyes. Then he added: "Go to Mirage Cloud Tower."

Soon after, a group of people arrived at the Mirage Tower. There were heavy troops stationed here, with bows and crossbows in full swing. The person guarding the door was a tall and thin man Cai Jing had never seen before. He had a pair of iron hooks on his back. The chain was wrapped around his arm, and his eyes were cold. This man seemed to have seen Cai Jing. When he saw him coming, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is upstairs at the moment."

The powerful Prime Minister Cai naturally didn't bother to say more to him, "We will go there on our own."

As they went higher, Cai Jing and Wang Fu became more and more frightened and confused. In the attic, after several searches by the eunuchs, a group of people were let in. Zhao Ji was sitting behind a round table wearing a hunting suit, seeming to be watching something.

"Your Majesty... I have something to ask for..." Cai Jing raised his hands and spoke.

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ji raised his hand and said, "Don't talk, just wait."

The ministers were suddenly speechless. They lowered their heads and looked at each other, feeling embarrassed. However, following Zhao Ji's gaze, they seemed to see something.

Outside the ancestor worship hall

Jin Jiu led a group of heavily armored soldiers under his command, walked through the steps, followed the direction of the palace door, and rushed over. His muscular arms suddenly swung the pair of sledgehammers, and smashed the palace door open with a bang. , seeing it was pitch dark inside without a single light, he shouted: "Search for me!"

A group of strong men in iron armor who looked like wolves and tigers rushed in with weapons in hand. Naturally, they did not dare to move the ancestral temple tablets enshrined inside, but the sleeping chamber there was not one of them.

Jin Jiu kicked a door open, revealing a simple mattress and a cabinet inside. He touched the quilt, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Guard the palace door... The old thief is still there..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow hung on the corridor beam outside and jumped down. In an instant, a forbidden soldier flew out and his head hit the golden pillar in the hall. His helmet was tilted and blood flowed all over the floor.

"Who are you? The Sa family is Emperor Wuxian's personal title of *********." The black shadow succeeded in striking and hung on the beam.

Jin Jiu raised his head and shouted: "Don't be nagging, I'm going to kill you." A pumpkin sledgehammer was thrown towards the black shadow, but the man dodged it and hit the beam, causing a lot of rubble to fall down.

"The Sa family remembers you, the little thief's accomplice!"

The black shadow gave a shrill cry, swooped down, smashed the Tianling Cover to pieces of the soldiers blocking the way, slipped under his feet, and instantly came towards Jin Jiu, and in the blink of an eye the two of them were close to each other.

Bah bah bah——

A moment of fighting, a lightning-like palm shadow.

Jin Jiu couldn't react at all. Those ten palms were all printed on his chest, and he flew out immediately, smashing the crooked palace door directly, and rolled down the steps again. He stood up with one hand, Half-kneeling on the ground, he saw that his armor was all dented. As soon as he got up, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

He forced himself to stand up, staggered, took a step, and then fell down suddenly.

In the attic, Zhao Ji said frivolously, "Boring."

.....

.....

There were about ten people behind him, but they were sweating profusely.
