In the Imperial Study of the Great Shang Nation's Imperial Palace, the Emperor of the Great Shang Nation, Beitang Zhao, looked at the 'Shang Jing Daily' that was placed on his table and laughed in anger.
"Hahaha, interesting, interesting. A Blood Demon Sect's Dream Demon actually issued a challenge to me in the 'Shang Jing Daily', mocking me for not being able to govern my country and my family properly. He even made it known to everyone in Shang Jing City. Very good, very good …"
Beitang Zhao was laughing, but the wrinkles at the corner of his eyes and the tip of his eyebrows seemed to be flowing with icicles. The aura on his body gradually became violent.
The few people standing in the Imperial Study were all silent, not saying a word …
The Commander of the Judgement Army, Lin Yi!
The Commander of the Garrison Army, Long Chaoyun!
The Commander of the Imperial City Guards, Fang Qiqiu!
The three people who controlled the strongest forces in Shang Jing City were all standing here!
At this moment, the sky had just begun to brighten. After the silence and disturbance in the middle of the night, Shang Jing City once again began a lively day.
The three commanders in the Imperial Study were summoned by Beitang Zhao after the incident at Feng Tai Mountain broke out in the wee hours of the previous night.
The newspaper had just been quietly sent in by an attendant. After reading the contents of the newspaper, the atmosphere in the Imperial Study was as if it had been ignited.
Lin Yi knew that although Beitang Zhao was laughing at this moment, he could no longer suppress his murderous intent. He had just glanced at the contents of the newspaper and felt his heart palpitate, but he also felt relieved all of a sudden. His mood was slightly complicated.
Could it be that he had wrongly blamed Xia Pingan? Was the incident at Red Leaves Villa really a lucky hit? Did the Judgement Army make a great contribution?
Lin Yi's heart was filled with thoughts that no one else knew about, but his face remained calm. Instead, he looked slightly guilty.
"Last night, the Judgement Army's actions allowed the Dream Demon to escape. The Judgement Army did not eliminate the Dream Demon, please forgive us, Your Majesty!" Lin Yi took the initiative to admit his mistake and said. "The contents of this newspaper are audacious. They actually dare to slander and provoke His Majesty. I will arrange for a thorough investigation and confiscation of these newspapers …"
"Investigate thoroughly? What's there to investigate thoroughly …" Beitang Zhao glanced at the newspaper and sneered. He clasped his hands behind his back and exuded the aura of a domineering emperor. "Even if the workers of the printing factory had the guts, they wouldn't dare to print such content in the newspaper. They were merely puppets controlled by the Dream Demon and were also victims. The one who did this was the Dream Demon. These newspapers have already been distributed throughout the city and who knows how many people have seen this content. I'm just making a joke out of myself in front of the Nightmare Demon. Does he think that I haven't seen this much? "
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Lin Yi asked.
"The Judgement Army is dutiful and has done meritorious deeds. If it wasn't for the Judgement Army's actions last night, I wouldn't have known that Shang Jing City was so filthy. I wouldn't have known that there were so many people in the city who are worse than pigs and dogs. They actually dared to collude with the Blood Demon Sect. Just like how the Dream Demon ridiculed us in the newspaper, if this continues, when the Great Shang Nation's rivers and mountains change, I will only realize it in hindsight. That would be the real joke of the world …" Beitang Zhao's brows were tightly knitted and his murderous intent penetrated through the canopy. He looked at the commander of the imperial city guards, Fang Qiqiu, and said in a deep voice, "Fang Qiqiu!"
"I'll give this name list to you!" Beitang Zhao directly handed over the name list that Lin Yi had brought from Red Leaf Villa to the Commander of the Imperial City Guards. "There are 1453 people on this name list. Most of them are in Shangjing City while some of them are in other provinces. Bring me the heads of all the people on this name list. At the same time, these people's family properties will all be sealed. Their descendants are not allowed to be officials within seven generations. Those who already have official positions within the three clans will all be removed from their positions. Those who dare to obstruct or cover up, regardless of who is involved, will be killed without mercy. I want to see how many heads can be chopped off from these beasts who are even worse than pigs and dogs. These beasts want to rely on eating humans to become immortal.
Beitang Zhao's teeth were filled with an ice-cold murderous intent that made people suffocate.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Fang Qiqiu took a deep breath. He took the name list with both hands and immediately took a step back.
At this moment, the name list in his hand weighed more than a thousand jin. That clean name list was like a sponge that was soaked in blood and was dripping with blood.
With just one sentence from Beitang Zhao, who knew how many people's heads would roll and how many clans would be beaten down to the mortal world. This was the anger of an emperor. Blood would flow like a river. The entire Shang Jing City and Shang Dynasty would be shaken.
On that day, when the people in this name list were eating people, they thought that they would be able to enjoy eternal youth and wealth. However, they never thought that this day would come.
"Long Chaoyun!" Beitang Zhao continued to give orders.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The commander of the imperial city guards took a step forward.
Beitang Zhao's gaze was like a blade as he stared at the commander of the imperial city guards. "The imperial city guards will enter the first level of combat readiness. Be prepared to deal with any sudden incidents in Shang Jing City. If anyone dares to jump out, kill them without mercy!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Lin Yi!"
"Your Majesty!"
"The child trafficking network is spread all over the Shang Dynasty. The participants are definitely not limited to these few people in Shang Jing City. This matter will be handed over to the Judgement Army. They must eliminate all the evil. None of the people involved in this matter can be let off. We must give an explanation to the people of Shang Dynasty!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Alright, all of you are dismissed!" Beitang Zhao lightly waved his hand.
The three big shots of Shang Jing City looked at each other and did not say anything. They each received their orders and left the study.
His Majesty did not mention Prince Jing just now!
The three of them thought this in their hearts, but no one said it out loud. Only when they walked to the garden outside the study did the three of them hear Beitang Zhao give an order to his personal attendant. "Have the Crown Prince come to the Imperial Study … …"
Crown Prince?
Was he going to have the Crown Prince deal with Prince Jing? Or, did he have to give His Highness the Crown Prince an explanation … …
No matter what, after today, there was no longer any suspense about who would be the future ruler of the Shang Dynasty.
… …
"What, last night's operation at Red Leaf Villa was commanded by Xia Pingan!" In the Eastern Palace, Beitang Wang Chuan who had just received the news was shocked. Previously, he already knew that something happened at Red Leaf Villa, but he did not expect that the one commanding the shadow guards was actually an envoy inspector like Xia Pingan. This was too strange.
"Your Highness, the internal information of the Judgement Army has already been confirmed. Last night, the one who led the shadow guards to sweep Red Leaf Villa and found the two name lists was Xia Pingan. I heard that it was Lin daren who authorized Xia Pingan to temporarily command the elite shadow guards to hunt down Dream Demon. I did not expect that Xia Pingan would lead people to sweep Red Leaf Villa … …"
"Hunt down Dream Demon!" Beitang Wang Chuan's face revealed a pondering expression. He seemed to have understood something. "Alright, I understand. You are dismissed!"
"Yes!"
Beitang Wang Chuan stood up and walked around the study. His expression constantly changed. It seemed like he was shocked, but there was also a trace of hidden joy.
Prince Jing was finished!
Even if Prince Jing did not die this time, he would probably be thrown into the death row prison by Father Emperor and imprisoned for the rest of his life. Xia Pingan's actions at Red Leaf Villa last night had directly cut off Prince Jing's path. He had also swept away all of the henchmen that Prince Jing had secretly recruited. That action was too beautiful. It was like a knife had cut into Prince Jing's weak spot. From today onwards, his position in Da Shang was as stable as a rock.
Was Xia Pingan repaying a debt of gratitude? It was just that he did not inform him before. Un, it was better if he did not inform him. If he did, that would be a bad thing.
This debt of gratitude was too heavy!
For a moment, Beitang Wang Chuan was both surprised and happy. He walked around the study, thinking about the changes in court while thinking about how to "thank" Xia Pingan.
At this time, the beaded curtain of the study was rolled up and the Crown Princess walked into the study. "Congratulations, Your Highness!"
Beitang Wang Chuan looked at his beloved imperial concubine and smiled slightly, "I also did not think that Xia Pingan would be able to do such a big thing this time without a word!"
"Prince Jing is truly fearsome. If it was not for the incident at Red Leaf Villa, Your Highness might not have known that Prince Jing had unknowingly used such methods to control so many henchmen in Shangjing!"
"Father Emperor once said that compared to summoners, when ordinary people become officials, they will be easier to control. It's just that the desires of ordinary people are not any less than summoners. Once they gain power, they will have power and wealth. In order to pursue longevity and enjoy power and wealth forever, they will do anything. They will even do things like eating people. They are worse than beasts …" Beitang Wang Chuan sighed.
"I'm afraid that Prince Jing's henchmen and Prince Jing will not be able to get past this!" The Crown Princess shook her head gently.
Beitang Wang Chuan frowned slightly and sighed, "Prince Jing has always been liked by Father Emperor. Father Emperor might also be hesitant about this matter. Also, Prince Jing's henchmen are involved in too many rich and powerful officials. I'm afraid …" Speaking to this point, Beitang Wang Chuan smiled bitterly and spread his hands. He said with a slight helplessness, "The most heartless is the imperial family. Sometimes, I really wish that I was an ordinary person. I don't have to scheme and scheme against each other with my brothers and relatives every day …"
"Your Majesty, if you do not kill them this time, you will not be able to explain it to Da Shang. The people in Shangjing are already agitated. This matter can no longer be concealed …"
"Ah, agitated? Did something happen? "Beitang Wang Chuan was slightly stunned.
The Crown Princess took out the newspaper and placed it in front of Beitang Wang Chuan, "I heard that the dream demon controlled the people at the printing company of Shangjing Daily and printed this. Right now, it has already spread throughout Shangjing. Many families in Shangjing with missing children have already rushed to the hospital and government offices. There are even people who have gone to Red Leaf Villa to search …"
Beitang Wang Chuan looked at the contents of the newspaper and was instantly shocked.
Beitang Zhao, I am very disappointed in you.
— — Beitang Zhao, don't think that you can turn the tables at Red Leaf Villa. This time, it was my Blood Demon Church's carelessness. Your son Beitang Wang Shan and the 1453 rich and powerful officials he gathered ate people at Red Leaf Villa for so many years. They treated the billions of people in Da Shang as pigs and dogs. Tens of thousands of children died at Red Leaf Villa. This is not the slightest bit inferior to our Evil Demon's Eye's sacrifice.
Almost all of them joined my Blood Demon Sect. My Blood Demon Sect controls the Great Shang Nation and changes the landscape of the Great Shang Nation. It doesn't take much effort. Your son almost joined the Blood Demon Sect. You, the Emperor of the Great Shang Nation, are only so-so. You were almost played by us.
Beitang Zhao, consider yourself lucky this time, but you can't be this lucky forever. I will return!
Dream demon!

Beitang Wang Chuan looked at this article that openly appeared in the and was written to his Imperial Father, Beitang Zhao. He was so shocked that he was dumbstruck.
To be able to use this method to control others to publish this kind of article in the newspaper, it was indeed a dream demon. However, Beitang Wang Chuan did not expect that the Blood Demon Church was involved behind Red Leaf Villa. Prince Jing was actually willing to risk universal condemnation and cooperate with the Blood Demon Church. This was indeed too shocking.
Once Prince Jing ascended the throne, wouldn't the state of Da Shang change? Then wouldn't the Blood Demon Church easily take Da Shang into their hands?
Thinking of this result, Beitang Wang Chuan shuddered.
Da Shang was on guard against the Blood Demon Church day and night. They did not expect that someone in the imperial family had a problem. This was the Blood Demon Church's method of digging out the heart.
"Dream demon and the Blood Demon Church saw the failure of Red Leaf Villa and directly exposed this matter, using Prince Jing and those people as sacrificial pawns. Their goal is to cause chaos in Shang Jing and Da Shang. If Your Majesty does not decisively deal with these people and give Da Shang an explanation, there will be no end to the troubles. Your Majesty will also be ridiculed and scolded by the world!" The Crown Princess said softly.
"Dream demon and the Blood Demon Church are so ruthless …" Beitang Wang Chuan said with a palpitating heart.
"The truly ruthless one is Prince Jing. In order to fight for the position of Da Bao, he is already unscrupulous. He can even rely on the Blood Demon Church. Being able to get rid of Prince Jing this time is Da Shang's fortune!"
Just at this time, a palace eunuch hurriedly came to the Eastern Palace, saying that His Majesty summoned the Crown Prince …
