The retainers of the Right Monitor Division also chased at full speed. With a wave of Yu Zhongzhen's hand, the Big Dipper Army retracted the retainers into the beast pouch and sped up.
Xuanyuan Zhuo and the others also sped up and disappeared into the depths of the starry sky.
Flying on a planet was different from flying in the starry sky. There was an advantage in speed in the starry sky. As long as one activated their arts, they would be able to fly faster and faster. A day's journey on a planet could be covered in the starry sky in the blink of an eye.
However, there was danger in this. The speed was too fast. Once it exceeded one's ability to dodge, it was easy to crash into something. The consequences of crashing into something at that speed were no small matter.
Inside a shop, a shop assistant suddenly walked out from the back hall. He untied his coat along the way, revealing his undershirt. He walked to the counter and threw his coat on the counter. He then took off his soft hat and slapped it on the counter.
The shopkeeper behind the counter stood up and glared. "Zhao Guang, what are you doing? You don't want to work anymore? "
The person called Zhao Guang ignored him. With a wave of his hand, he took out a black coat with gold trim and put it on. He fastened the belt and a black hat with gold embroidered clouds fell on his head. Then, he pulled on the two ribbons and tied them under his chin. Suddenly, he turned to look at the shopkeeper behind the counter. His aura was completely different from the previous worker.
The shopkeeper was already dumbfounded when he saw Zhao Guang's outfit. Being glared at by Zhao Guang, the shopkeeper was so frightened that he trembled. He stumbled backwards and leaned against the cabinet, his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"I quit!" Zhao Guang said as he strode out of the door.
Everyone in the shop was dumbfounded. The shopkeeper swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice, "The people of the Right Monitor Division …"
Thinking of how he had scolded the Heavenly Court behind their backs, and how Zhao Guang had been present several times, the shopkeeper's legs turned to jelly. He fell to the ground with a crash, as if he had lost his parents!
No one dared to stop Zhao Guang as he strode out of the door. When the passersby saw his outfit, they all parted to make way for him.
Zhao Guang held a metal cylinder in his hand and pulled it open. The barrel faced the sky. Swish! A 'meteor' shot into the sky and exploded with a bang.
Soon, people in the same attire as him ran out from the streets and alleys. After four people gathered behind him, the five of them rose into the air together, leaping over the houses and streets of Heaven Street, descending from the sky and landing in front of the Pavilion of Truth.
The five of them barged into the main entrance of the Hall of Truth. Several people in the shop immediately came out to stop them. After seeing their attire, he still refused to let them pass. He pushed out his palm and said, "The envoy of the Western Army is currently in charge of the Imperial Garden. He has ordered that no one is to disturb him!"
Zhao Guang flashed his palm, holding a token in his hand. He shouted, "His Majesty has decreed that all the interrogations and interrogations of the Youding region case shall be coordinated by the Right Monitoring Department! According to the Supervising Right Envoy's order, Niu Youde will be under the supervision of the Right Division from now on. No one is allowed to obstruct him. Those who disobey will be treated as defying the edict and will be killed without mercy! "
The expression of the person blocking the entrance of the shop changed.
Swoosh! The four men behind Zhao Guang quickly drew their swords. Two of them rushed forward to open a path. No one dared to block the way at the door, and they quickly moved to the left and right. Someone hurriedly took out his Star Bell to contact the inside.
Under the eaves of the waterside pavilion overlooking the lake, Gou Yue's expression changed drastically. He turned around and asked, "Why are Gao Guan's men here?"
Han Dong replied, "They must have been organized by the secret agents of the Right Division of the Supervisory Department in the city."
"They actually did not hesitate to expose the hidden spies in the city …" Gou Yue clenched his fists, cracking his knuckles. He gritted his teeth and spat out two words. "Gao Guan!"
As long as the people from the Right Division of the Supervisory Department did not come personally, he had all sorts of excuses to stop them. No one could do anything to him. However, Gao Guan was someone who held the power to act first and report later. If he dared to stop Gao Guan's men, would he not dare to kill him when Gao Guan arrived? He had already publicly announced that anyone who defied the edict would be killed without mercy. Who would dare to stop him?
Those who defied the edict, Gao Guan would not hesitate to kill them!
Gou Yue suddenly waved his hand and pointed. "Go and take a look! Even if his clothes are disheveled, he will not be able to escape! "
Han Dong immediately left in a flash.
In the pavilion in the forest. Guang Mei 'er threw away the Ice Soul in her hand. Frost spread on the ground, but she was too embarrassed to show her face.
Seeing her expression, Miao Yi knew that she probably didn't know anything. He calmly said, "Miss Mei 'er, someone poisoned this wine? It's an aphrodisiac. "
"Ah!" Guang Mei 'er was shocked. She raised her head and stared blankly at the wine pot on the table.
Han Dong descended from the sky and landed outside the pavilion. When he saw Guang Mei 'er's clothes were neat and tidy, he looked at the Ice Soul in Miao Yi's hand and the frost on the ground inside the pavilion. The corner of his mouth twitched. He was puzzled. This thing should be very useful. The amount of it should not have alerted the victim that he was poisoned. How could this be?
At this moment, someone invoked their arts and shouted in the air, "Under the orders of the Right Division Supervisor, where is Head Commander Niu Youde?!"
Gao Guan's men had finally arrived! Miao Yi invoked his arts and replied, "I am here!"
Soon, five figures descended. Zhao Guang flashed his token again. "The Lord Right Division has ordered that from now on, Head Commander Niu will be temporarily under the watch of the Right Division of the Supervisory Department."
Miao Yi nodded slightly. "Where to?"
Zhao Guang replied, "Keep watch here. Everything will be decided after the Lord Right Division arrives."
"Who dares to be so impudent!" Princess Consort Mei Niang's stern voice resounded. A group of people rushed over, with the Princess in front and Gou Yue and the rest behind.
It would be strange if the Princess Consort didn't hear such a loud shout. Knowing that the people from the Right Division of the Supervisory Department were here to break the stalemate, she was filled with anger.
Han Dong secretly gave Gou Yue a look that indicated he had no idea. Gou Yue's expression darkened!
Zhao Guang didn't know the Princess Consort, but seeing her official robes, he was shocked. He cupped his fists and said, "The Right Division of the Supervisory Department is under orders to handle this case."
The Princess Consort shouted angrily, "Who gave you the courage to trespass into my personal quarters?"
This was a crime she could not bear! Zhao Guang waved his hand and flashed his token at her. In a clear voice, he said, "The Right Division Supervisor, Lord Gao Guan, has ordered us to place Niu Youde in custody. Anyone who dares to obstruct us will be considered as defying the order and will be killed without mercy! Is the Princess Consort intending to defy the order? "
Upon hearing the two words' Gao Guan ', the Princess Consort immediately sobered up. She felt a chill from the soles of her feet. Many of the sisters she was familiar with had their houses confiscated and their families exterminated by Gao Guan. Once the cold-faced magistrate arrived, the aristocratic families that were usually so glamorous would immediately be annihilated. The sisters who were still laughing and chatting with each other yesterday would be beheaded or imprisoned the next day. No one would be willing to experience such a feeling.
The combination of 'High Crown', 'Defy the Edict', and 'Kill Without Mercy'. Either he didn't use it, or once he did, there was basically no room for redemption. It was simply unstoppable. Anyone who ran into it would be smashed to pieces!
Just thinking about it sent chills down her spine. The Princess Consort pursed her lips and shut her mouth.
Han Dong, however, gave Xia Lingling a look. Xia Lingling immediately went into the pavilion and tidied up the snacks on the table. She focused on the pot of wine. Unexpectedly, Guang Mei 'er waved her hand and pointed at it, saying hatefully, "Leave that pot of wine!"
Xia Lingling's expression froze. She raised her head and looked at Han Dong.
Gou Yue glanced at the silent Miao Yi and coughed dryly at the Princess Consort, signaling her to stop Guang Mei 'er from making a fuss.
The Princess Consort still didn't know what was going on. She blindly said, "Mei 'er, come with me!"
Unexpectedly, Guang Mei 'er suddenly grabbed the wine pot in Xia Lingling's hand and forcefully snatched it away. The latter didn't dare to fight with her and rushed to her mother, "Mother, there's someone …"
"Young Miss, don't cause trouble!" Gou Yue suddenly shouted and cut her off. He glared at Xia Lingling, "Hurry up and take Young Miss away."
"It's you!" Guang Mei 'er abruptly turned to look at him. She seemed to have understood.
Who was Steward Gou? He could almost directly represent the Prince! Xia Lingling didn't dare to disobey the order. In addition, Han Dong gave her a fierce look, so she immediately flashed to Guang Mei 'er's side. When she grabbed Guang Mei' er's arm, she directly restrained Guang Mei 'er, making her unable to speak. She was almost directly taken away.
Zhao Guang and the others shifted their vigilant gazes from the wine pot to Miao Yi's face, questioning him.
However, Miao Yi's expression was indifferent. He picked up the Ice Soul in his hand and looked at it. With a wave of his hand, he collected it along with the other one on the ground in the pavilion. It was as though nothing had happened, and he didn't say anything.
It would be a lie to say that Miao Yi wasn't angry after being plotted against like this. However, before the case was closed, exposing this matter was equivalent to publicly forming an enmity with the Guang Clan that was involved in the investigation. In reality, even if there wasn't this case, and there were no consequences to the matter, he wouldn't say it out loud. Did the Princess Consort and her daughter drug him while they were staying here? If he said it out loud, it would be tantamount to offending the Guang Clan.
For some people, even if they did something, it was as good as not doing anything.
Gou Yue smiled slightly. He was very satisfied with Miao Yi's attitude. He turned to the Princess Consort and extended his hand, "Since this is a case from the Right Supervisory Department, Princess Consort, let's go back."
The Princess Consort was also suspicious. She wasn't an idiot. The Ice Soul in Miao Yi's hand and on the ground, her daughter's reaction, and that wine pot — there was definitely something wrong. If it wasn't for Gou Yue stopping her, she would definitely get to the bottom of this.
Everyone retreated. The four members of the Right Supervisory Department stood guard at the four corners, while Zhao Guang stood guard by Miao Yi's side.
When she turned around and saw her daughter, Mei Niang immediately understood what had happened. Someone actually dared to drug her daughter!
"Mother! My daughter actually did something shameful to Big Brother Niu in a fit of passion. How am I going to see him in the future? How will he think of me? "Guang Mei 'er was so embarrassed that she wanted to throw a rope onto the beam to tie a knot and hang her neck on it.
Mei Niang, whose chest was heaving up and down rapidly, gradually calmed down. There was no need to guess who did it. However, Guang Mei 'er wasn't just her daughter, she was also the daughter of Heavenly King Guang. Even if Gou Yue was given a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing to Guang Mei' er. There was no need to think about who had agreed to it.
She knew that this trip was unscrupulous in order to achieve their goals, but she didn't expect it to be this unscrupulous. It was as if they had even wiped out their family ties. She couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.
After comforting her daughter, Mei Niang walked out of the house and saw Gou Yue kneeling on the ground. She realized that the surrounding people had all left.
Mei Niang looked at him coldly from above. "Why didn't you tell me? Who allowed you to do this? "
"It was this old servant who made the decision. This old servant is at your mercy!"
"Did His Highness agree?"
"This has nothing to do with His Highness. His Highness didn't know about it. It was all this old servant's impulsiveness. I was eager to gain merit. This old servant is willing to accept any punishment."
