In the study room of the Imperial Palace in Xianyang City!
After waving his hand to signal Qin Lei to leave, Emperor Qin, who was standing by the window of the study room, suddenly asked.
"Director Jiang, do you believe what Yu Haoran said?"
"This …!" Faced with Emperor Qin's interrogation, Director Jiang did not know how to answer.
Judging from the situation in the dense forest, it seemed that the truth was as Yu Haoran said. Because he changed the route back to the Hundred Chi Gate at the last minute, he did not meet Jiang Yan and the others, so he was not hunted down.
However, according to the information from the intelligence department that he was in charge of, as well as the investigation of Qin Feng and Qin Yu, the truth was not as Yu Haoran said.
Turning around to look at Director Jiang, Emperor Qin stepped back to sit on the Dragon Throne. Then, he picked up a Communication Jade Talisman from the desk and threw it to Director Jiang.
After receiving the Communication Jade Talisman from Emperor Qin and reading the information recorded in the jade talisman, Director Jiang could not help but change his expression. His tone was full of shock as he said.
"How is that possible?"
"How is that not possible?"
The Qin Emperor said coldly in the face of Steward Jiang's shock.
"As the first aristocratic family in Emperor Qin's Kingdom, they have a quasi-Martial Venerable expert who can fight against the Imperial Family. What can they not do, and what can they not dare to do?"
"Your Majesty, what I meant by shock was not that Meng Sheng dared to hunt down the Emperor's son-in-law, but that the Emperor's son-in-law escaped from Meng Sheng's pursuit."
Shaking his head, Director Jiang said with a puzzled face.
"After all, Meng Sheng is not an ordinary person!"
"Director Jiang, why didn't Yu Haoran use the method of ambush to kill all the people who were hunting him down, including Meng Sheng?" Emperor Qin asked with a sneer.
"Your Majesty, that's impossible!"
After hearing Emperor Qin's rhetorical question, Manager Jiang shook his head vigorously and carefully analyzed.
"Your Majesty, among the twenty people sent by the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion and the Hidden Art Pavilion, five of them are Martial Saints. Moreover, Lu Gan, who comes from the number one family in Feng City, is at the peak of the Fifth Grade Martial Saint realm."
"Not to mention Meng Sheng, who has a complete top-grade Sage Stage defensive Dharma Artifact and has mastered several heaven-defying Secret Techniques."
"As for the Prince Consort, whose cultivation is only at the peak of the ninth grade Martial Master and only has a fifth grade ninth grade Black Bear to protect him, how could he be a match for these experts?"
"Your analysis just now is very reasonable!"
Emperor Qin nodded in agreement when he heard Mr. Jiang's analysis.
"According to a normal comparison of strength, no matter which group of people Yu Haoran encountered, the result would be certain death."
"But in the end!"
"In the end, all the people who chased him disappeared, and the Prince Consort returned to the Hundred Chi Gate unscathed." Manager Jiang hurriedly added.
Closing his eyes, Emperor Qin gently knocked on the desk, summarized and analyzed all the information, and finally found a suspicious point.
"Manager Jiang, among the three groups of people who chased after Yu Haoran, did you find a common point?"
"Your Majesty, forgive this old servant for being stupid, but I really can't see the common point between the three groups of people who chased after the Prince Consort." Manager Jiang thought from beginning to end and said with a wry smile.
"Except for Zhang Xiubo, the Deputy Lord of the Qingcheng Sect, whose strength is only at the peak of the ninth grade Martial Emperor, all the people who are stronger than Yu Haoran have taken the Detoxification Pill refined by Yu Haoran." Emperor Qin said with a smile, as if he had found the key to the problem.
"Your Majesty, you mean that the Prince Consort has tampered with the Detoxification Pill refined?" Manager Jiang said with a look of horror.
"That's right!"
The Qin Emperor nodded with a grave expression as he explained.
"Three years ago, when the Great Elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, who had reached the level of Great Grandmaster in alchemy, was invited to the palace as a guest, he once told me."
"If an alchemist's understanding of alchemy reaches the legendary Realm of Minute Subtlety, then this alchemist is the most dangerous person and must not be provoked."
"Because he can rely on the Realm of Minute Subtlety to integrate his unique methods into all the pills he refined, and through this method, he can control all the people who have taken the pills he refined."
Speaking of this, Emperor Qin suddenly thought of the Five Lives Mystery Pill that Yu Haoran had given him, and a trace of fear suddenly rose in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that he was busy recently and temporarily unable to use the Pill Sun of the Five Lives Mystery Pill to improve his state of mind, he might have fallen into Yu Haoran's control now.
In addition to the lingering fear, Emperor Qin's heart was filled with endless fear.
If Yu Haoran's alchemy cultivation was really as the Great Elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters had said, then with his outstanding alchemy cultivation, wouldn't he be able to control most of the strong people in the world?
"Your Majesty, I believe that the Prince Consort may have tampered with the Detoxification Pill refined, but I definitely don't believe that his alchemy cultivation has reached the Realm of Minute Subtlety."
After hearing Emperor Qin's explanation, especially after seeing the flash of fear on Emperor Qin's face just now, Manager Jiang immediately knew that the Emperor had the problem of being overly suspicious.
Although he didn't have much contact with Yu Haoran and didn't have a deep friendship with him, a genius like Yu Haoran who had amazing talent in both alchemy and martial arts was an indispensable pillar of the Emperor Qin's Kingdom if they wanted to unify the world.
Moreover, when Princess Ling Fei secretly brought Yu Haoran into the palace that night, he could see the affection that Princess Ling Fei had for Yu Haoran.
Therefore, Manager Jiang didn't want to lose a pillar of support that could shake the world in the future because of the Emperor's paranoia. He also didn't want to cause estrangement between the Emperor and Princess Ling Fei because of his suspicion of Yu Haoran.
There was no need for further explanation from Manager Jiang. Emperor Qin also knew that he had committed the problem of being overly suspicious.
After readjusting his mentality, he also believed that Yu Haoran's alchemy cultivation definitely couldn't reach the Realm of Minute Subtlety that the Great Elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters had mentioned.
Then, he began to think about how to deal with the next matter.
After all, according to Yu Haoran's lawless character, although Meng Sheng's identity was noble, he wouldn't be afraid of him. In the face of Meng Sheng's pursuit, he would definitely dare to kill him.
And the old man of the Meng family spoiled Meng Sheng.
If he knew that his only direct descendant grandson had been killed, he would definitely rush to the Hundred Chi Gate and kill until the entire Hundred Chi Gate turned into a river of blood and not even a blade of grass could grow.
Although he wanted to go to the Hundred Chi Gate to help Yu Haoran, special circumstances prevented him from leaving Xianyang City before his cultivation broke through to the Revered level.
Unless he was willing to prevent the Meng family's ancestor from leaving Xianyang City.
But if he did so, it would be tantamount to starting a war with the Meng family, which would inevitably affect his plans to conquer the world.
It seemed that he had to cancel the engagement ceremony on February 2nd next year. He had to make Yu Haoran leave Emperor Qin's Kingdom before the Meng family discovered the news of Meng Sheng's death.
Thinking of this, Emperor Qin immediately took out a blank jade slip. Then, he extracted a wisp of his soul and fused it into the jade slip.
"Chief Steward Jiang, immediately arrange for a trusted subordinate to deliver this jade slip to the Hundred Chi Gate's Qing Yun Peak at the fastest speed. Then, personally deliver it to Yu Haoran," Emperor Qin ordered with a solemn expression as he threw the jade slip to Chief Steward Jiang.
"This old servant will immediately arrange for Qin Lei, who is familiar with the situation!"
After receiving the jade slip, Chief Steward Jiang respectfully replied. Then, he turned around and was about to make the arrangements. But, Emperor Qin suddenly called out to him and ordered him with a murderous look.
"Moreover, use all the strength of the Eagle Squad to eliminate all the people who know about Meng Sheng's pursuit of Yu Haoran. Try to delay him as much as possible."
