Yu Lian Zhenren could not help but ask the two beside him through telepathy, "Senior Brothers, is this really because of the Vitality Sect?"
"What are you talking about?" Yu Xu Zhenren had been in charge of the Vitality Grocery Store for many years, so he was more knowledgeable than his two brothers. "How could the Vitality Sect cause such a huge commotion? Niu Youde would not be able to control such a large-scale spread of rumors. This is a battle of power between the people at the top, and the Vitality Sect does not have the right to interfere. But from the looks of it, King Ying and Niu Youde are going to fight to the death. This commotion is quite scary. If something happens, it will be earth-shattering. "
Yu Ling Zhenren sighed and shook his head. He had told Yu Lian long ago that he did not want Niu Youde to get involved. He was afraid that things would get out of hand. Now, the Vitality Sect was involved.
Bao Lian stood beside him and said nothing.
The group finally arrived at the Guardian Palace. Bao Lian looked at the Guardian Palace with a complicated expression. This was the place where she had lived for many years. Memories of the past flashed through her mind, but now, everything had changed.
"Niu Youde rose to power here!" Yu Xu Zhenren looked at the Guardian Palace and sighed.
In a deep courtyard, a jade-faced man with a long beard was sitting quietly in the hall without making a sound.
A beautiful woman dressed in a flowery robe suddenly rushed in with a jade archive in her hand. She walked quickly to the man's side and flaunted it as if she had found a treasure, "Marquis, quickly take a look. The jade archive used to spread the rumors really has Concubine Qin's seal on it."
The man tilted his head and said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The woman punched him on the shoulder and said, "Why would I lie to you? This is really Concubine Qin's seal. I knew her a long time ago, and we exchanged letters. If you don't believe me, I can find it and compare it to show you. Master Hou, could it be that what is written on this jade archive is true? Does King Ying really want to rebel? "
Slap! The man abruptly stood up and slapped the woman's face, causing her to fall to the ground. He pointed at her and angrily rebuked, "Are you tired of living? How can you say something like this? Can you guarantee that there are no eyes and ears in your house? Do you know what time it is? "Let me tell you, even you, the mistress of the house, can't control your mouth. If your servants hear it, they will spread it. What will His Highness think if Heavenly King Ying hears it?" Some words can kill a person, especially at this time. If you want to die, do it as soon as possible. Don't drag your entire family down with you! "
At first, the woman who was covering her face felt very wronged. This was the first time she had been beaten by her own man. She had never felt so wronged before. Tears welled up in her eyes, but when she heard this, her face immediately turned pale, and the tears were scared back.
In the barracks of a certain planet's mountain range, in a small courtyard, a group of soldiers gathered around a table to drink. After a few glasses, they couldn't control their mouths anymore.
"Mom? Damn it, I was wondering why the price of the Basic Immortal Pill had risen to such an extent. So it was the doing of that person above me. Great, 10,000 trillion Yuan Immortal Pills! How generous! "
"Don't talk nonsense. It's obvious that someone is framing Heavenly King Ying."
"Frame? Well, this must be a frame. No one is blind. But is it fake that the people of the Juxian Hall were arrested and released? Is it fake that Niu Youde suddenly climbed to the position of Governor of the Celestial Street? Also, it's not a secret that the people of the Ying Family have been buying the Basic Immortal Pills in large quantities. Why do they need so many? So this is the problem! There are no outsiders here. Don't deceive yourself. "
"Yes, I heard that the people who disappeared from our side went to the Black Dragon Pond to participate in the war. Now, even their shadows are missing. I guess they have died in the battle. It's very easy to prove that it's a rumor. Just ask that person to hand over the people who disappeared. The rumor will be broken. If he is so capable, hand over the people who disappeared! "
"How dare that person make such a request? If he hands over the people on our side, what if other places also demand to hand over the people who disappeared? It will be a big mess, won't it?"
"Me? Go to him? Mom? Reorganize? Just like this? In order to save his son, he can pay any price. If he eats meat and we drink some soup, it's like we've committed a big crime. If he really wants to clean up, let him find out all the relatives in his family and investigate them. Which one of them is clean? "
"That's right. When my brother-in-law was beheaded, my wife cried when she saw me and asked me to take revenge. If I go, who can I take revenge on? How can I take revenge for her? It's so annoying. "
"Hehe, the price of the Basic Immortal Pills has increased greatly. Those people above are rich and don't have to worry about food. We, who are paid, can't live like this anymore."
"That's what I said. It's their family's fault, but we have to pay for it. Why?"
"Millions of elites were defeated by 100,000 people. They were bullied by that Niu Youde, and they still have the face to stay in that position. Their skin is really thick."
"Mom? Damn it. For a personal grudge, he used millions of lives of the eastern army to pay for it. The lives of our subordinates are worthless. Maybe one day, our lives will be tricked by him. "
"Looks like it's not a small commotion. Is someone going to make a move on that person?"
"Hurry up and arrest him. Anyone in that position is better than him."
"Alright, everyone, don't talk so much. The walls might have ears."
Similar discussions could be heard everywhere in the eastern army.
Domain Gengzi's governor's manor, the territory of Concubine Yuanqin's maiden family, Wang Zhuo's original territory.
A high-ranking military officer entered the Manor and walked briskly to the main hall. Upon seeing the newly appointed Lieutenant, he bowed and took out a jade archive. He transmitted his voice, "My Lord, the transcendent seal on this jade archive is correct. It is indeed Wang Zhuo's. It looks like Wang Zhuo is still alive!"
The new governor rolled his eyes, "Don't I know how to compare myself? Do I need you to tell me? I didn't ask you to come here to talk about this. Let me ask you, what's going on down there? You're not talking nonsense, right? "
The governor shook his head, "With such a big commotion, how can they not talk about it?"
The governor sternly said, "I've heard the news. The higher-ups are about to send an inspection team to check in. Have the brothers down there keep their mouths shut and keep their complaints to themselves. It's not worth losing their lives over a few words of complaint. Don't blame me for not protecting them when they get their heads chopped off."
The governor sighed, "If he has the guts, then just kill them all. I'd like to see who's going to throw their lives away for him."
Pa! The governor kicked him, "Are you done yet? Shut your filthy mouth! "
The governor immediately ran off with a chuckle.
Meanwhile, the governor sat down and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Oh, Heavenly King Ying …"
In Marshal Chou Lu's manor, several generals entered and went straight to the manor's reception hall. When they saw Cheng Taize sitting in the hall, they cupped their fists and greeted, "Commander!"
Cheng Taize waved his hand, gesturing for them to sit down and talk. He then asked, "How is the morale of the troops down there?"
The generals shook their heads. One of them said, "Commander, the troops are in an uproar."
Cheng Taize frowned and fell silent.
The generals looked at each other, signaling each other with their eyes. Finally, one of them braced himself and stood up, cupped his fists, and said, "Commander, this is a heaven-sent opportunity. Why don't you take this opportunity to contact His Majesty? I believe His Majesty will be tempted."
Cheng Taize suddenly looked up. He naturally knew what they meant, so he looked at everyone's faces and observed their reactions.
The generals looked at each other again, and suddenly stood up, cupped their fists, and said in unison, "We are willing to follow Commander's lead until death!"
They wanted to be crowned with the emperor! Cheng Taize understood what these people meant. They had all seen an opportunity and wanted him to overthrow Ying Jiuguang. Thus, these people would naturally follow suit.
"Is Commander worried about the attitudes of the Southern, Western, and Northern Armies? In this subordinate's opinion, there is no need to worry. Commander only wants to replace Ying Jiuguang, but you can promise the three armies that you will not go against Ying Jiuguang's path and continue to cooperate with them against the Heavenly Palace. There is naturally no need to worry. "
"Commander, the morale of the troops is lax, and everyone is filled with complaints about the Ying Family. The unjust have little support, while the just have the most support. Whoever stands up first will win the hearts of the people. Whoever contacts His Majesty first will be the first to take the lead. This is an opportunity that cannot be missed!"
Bang! Cheng Taize suddenly slammed the table, causing the tea table to shatter into pieces. He pointed at the generals and roared, "Impudent! This Commander has followed His Highness for many years and has received His Highness's kindness. I was just thinking about how to resolve His Highness's worries, but you actually dare to incite this Commander to rebel. This is preposterous! If not for the fact that you have followed me for so many years, I would not have let you off so easily today! This Commander is warning you, this Commander swears to follow His Highness to the death and will not give these traitors a chance. Whoever dares to say such things in the future will be executed without mercy! Scram! "
The generals lowered their heads in silence. They silently cupped their fists and retreated to the door before turning to leave.
When the footsteps outside had faded away, Cheng Taize paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, deep in thought. His subordinates had asked him to contact Lord Qing, but he did not know that Lord Qing had already contacted him. He did not agree to Lord Qing's request, nor did he inform the generals of this matter. He did not easily express his stance either. Who knew if any of these generals were secretly taking orders from Ying Jiuguang?
After a long time, he steadied his footsteps, took out a Star Bell, and contacted Marshal Zilu, Teng Fei.
Unbeknownst to him, Teng Fei was pacing back and forth in a quiet room, hesitating. Upon receiving the message, he asked, "Brother Cheng, is something the matter?"
Cheng Taize: "I received a jade archive."
Teng Fei was taken aback for a moment before replying, "I have one here as well."
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. It seemed that Sima Wentian had not lied to them. It was just that the two of them had not dared to ask each other about it …
Within the Eastern Palace of the Heavenly Palace, Zhan Ruyi, who had climbed up to the pavilion, gazed at the endless stretch of buildings. His eyes were dim as he murmured words that only he could hear, "The world is in turmoil, and you are unwilling to be left out. In the end, you will have to walk a different path, and you will not rest until you die …"
"This Niu Youde must have eaten the guts of a leopard to dare oppose His Highness. He will die a horrible death sooner or later!"
"How could he have the strength to oppose His Highness? It's all because of that family behind the Heavenly Palace. Who doesn't know what kind of trash that family is? After a few dynasties, they are famous for hiding in the shadows and doing all sorts of shady things. In my opinion, His Majesty should be on his guard against that family as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would not even know when he would be at a disadvantage. "
Silver Frost and White Snow were filled with righteous indignation. They continued to criticize Zhan Ruyi behind his back.
