Xuanyuan Zhi looked at Feng Qing in displeasure. He knew that he did not have time to waste here, so he could only say, "When this duke was assassinated in your territory, you only need to report the truth and send the news back to the capital as soon as possible. Also, bring this king a present for his royal brother. "

Feng Qing Lai raised his head and saw Qi Sha holding a sealed wooden case in front of him.

Feng Qinglei suddenly kowtowed as if he had just survived a disaster. "I thank the prince for his grace. This official guarantees that the emperor will see your gift in two days." The horse carriage started moving again, Chu Qingyao asked in puzzlement, "What's in the box?"

"Head." Xuanyuan Zhi opened his mouth, "Tonight, the person leading the charge is the Imperial Palace's Imperial Guard Commander."

Although she had long guessed the gist of the matter, Chu Qingyao was still fiercely shocked. She hadn't thought that the Emperor would be so excessive and brazen, wasn't he afraid of the news spreading out?

"Will you harm the county governor like this?"

"He deserved to die. This King has wanted to investigate him for a long time. He is the bully of the Azure Province, the bully of men and the tyrant of women. He colluded with the officials and did all sorts of evil deeds. His death is not worthy of lament. " Xuanyuan Zhi's voice wasn't loud, but it carried complete rage.

What's the use of an official who doesn't care about the people!

Before the Qingzhou County Governor's imperial report could reach the capital, word had already spread all over the world that the roasting king had met with three groups of black-clothed men who tried to rob and kill him on their way to the Northern Region. The guards had suffered heavy losses, and it seemed that there was someone in the country who had colluded with the Falcon Kingdom to kill the Prince.

At the morning assembly on the third day, more than half of the officials kneeled down. "This subject requests for orders, and requests the Emperor to dispatch people to escort roasting king to the Northern Region."

How did the news of him sending people to kill Xuanyuan Zhi spread like this?

He could only feign ignorance, "My dear sirs, roasting king is on the way to the northern region with his guards.

"Your majesty, the roasting king encountered several assassination attempts while they were on their way to the Northern Region. This subject wishes your majesty to consider the big picture and send out some Imperial Guards to escort your highness."

This news spread fast enough!

Xuanyuan Xiao swept the hall with his cold eyes. Seeing that so many people were concerned about Xuanyuan Zhi's life, he angrily slapped the armrest of the dragon throne. "This is simply nonsense. You all actually believe the rumors that are spread around, do you all want to rebel? "

The officials were stunned but remained silent. Not long later, they started to whisper to each other.

phase of Chu stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, up until now, when roasting king left the capital, he still hasn't said a single word. It's obvious that he's safe and sound. I ask that the Emperor give the order to thoroughly investigate the people who spread the rumors. These people are sinister and obviously have other motives. "

These words were correct, Xuanyuan Xiao praised phase of Chu. "Someone, come …"

"Report!" An urgent report was sent over from Qingzhou County. "

"Report!" An urgent report was sent over from Qingzhou County. "

Numerous reports were transmitted from outside the palace, all the way until they reached the ears of everyone in the Golden Hall. Xuanyuan Xiao angrily snorted, "What urgent matter can a single Cyan Region county have? This is simply adding fuel to the fire! "

The imperial report was sent all the way to the Golden Hall, and the eunuch carefully presented it to the Emperor. After looking at it, Xuanyuan Xiao was so angry that his face turned green, he did not expect Xuanyuan Zhi to expose this matter.

He wanted to suppress this matter as he saw all the officials in the hall looking at him curiously! He was shocked inwardly. He had to keep this a secret from everyone else.

"Reporting to the Emperor, along with the imperial reports, there was also a huge present from His Highness, the roasting king." The soldier kneeling on the ground raised the wooden box in his hand.

The eunuch took the wooden case, turned around and presented it to Xuanyuan Xiao, "Your Majesty."

"Open." Xuanyuan Xiao laughed coldly in his heart, today he wanted to see what tricks this little brother of his could come up with.

The eunuch opened the wooden case, and with just a glance, Xuanyuan Xiao flipped the wooden case over with his hand, and the memorial in his hand fell as well. Panic-stricken and enraged, he shouted loudly, "Impudent, impudent! "It's the opposite, it's the opposite!" After he finished speaking, he nearly fainted from anger.

The eunuch only saw a bloody head rolling by his feet as his body trembled. He knelt down. "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

All the officials were stunned as they looked at the head in horror. Wasn't … isn't this the inner court's commander, Qiu Congjiang? Why did the roasting king kill him?

"Father, how are you? Someone, hurry and get an imperial physician. " Crown Prince Xuanyuan Rui immediately walked forward and picked up the imperial report, and anxiously glanced at the contents.

"Your Highness, it's better to take care of the emperor first." A hand reached out from the side and took the imperial report. Seeing that it was Sixth royal uncle, the Crown Prince knew that he had always been pretending to be stupid in the imperial court and never had any relationships with other parties, so he was relieved.

After waiting for the crown prince to turn around, Xuanyuan Yong quickly looked at the paper in his hand, and shouted out loud, then directly fell to the ground. The moment the paper slipped from his hands, it was picked up by a martial general.

After the military general saw it, he anxiously said, "The roasting king Lord was assassinated in the Cyan Plains Region. It must have been that fellow, Qiu Congjiang!"

The Crown Prince was shocked, and inwardly cursed Sixth royal uncle as a cripple. Why did he faint just at this moment? The emperor had already woken up. His face was like a palette, filled with rage and irritation … All sorts of emotions ran through his mind, and he wanted nothing more than to rush over and snatch the imperial report back.

Very quickly, the imperial edict from the Azure Province was uploaded and looked around the hall. There was no idiot that could stand in this hall. Everyone secretly thought about it and guessed the gist of it.

The assassination of the roasting king and the return of the head of the inner palace commander was most likely related to the Emperor. Is it really okay for you to do this at a time of external troubles? Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn a boat!

Xuanyuan Yong who was on the ground suddenly moved, and slowly got up, and looked up in shock. Seeing that the emperor was on the verge of erupting, he fearfully kneeled down and said, "Please forgive me royal brother, Chendi really didn't sleep on purpose, it's just a dizziness attack."

Idiot!

Although Xuanyuan Xiao was furious, he could not do anything to a fool. He could only say, "royal brother, I give you a leave of absence of one year, from now on you do not have to go to court early, just sleep at home."

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Yong laughed, and anxiously kowtowed: Chendi thanks royal brother, royal brother, you are truly too good.

"This subject requests that we send someone to escort His Majesty the roasting king. We hope that Your Majesty can grant our request." Little General Xu Lie came out.

"This subject humbly requests …" Behind the military general, a large group of people kneeled down.

As Xuanyuan Xiao was feeling depressed, he felt like he was being led away by the nose by Xuanyuan Zhi. Without waiting for the officials to finish, he immediately agreed to Xu Lie's request.

As for Xuanyuan Zhi and Chu Qingyao, after exterminating those three hundred people, they went without a hitch for the next few days.

Chu Qingyao calmed down and treated Xuanyuan Zhi. With his sickly look, even if he reached the border, he would not be able to enter the battlefield. Therefore, the modern medicine in the system continuously provided to Xuanyuan Zhi, hoping that he would recover soon.

After routinely giving Xuanyuan Zhi acupuncture, he observed his surroundings while putting away the needles. Seeing that Xuanyuan Zhi's face was still expressionless, it was hard to tell whether he was in a good or bad mood. He gathered up his courage and asked, "Your Royal Highness, that day you said you would let me leave, is that true?"
