The King and Queen of Yuyang should be investigating Shi Pojun's case, how did they end up in the Imperial City?
"Master Chen, when did you return to Imperial City?"
Most of the time, Chen Yusheng and his wife stayed at Xiguan, rarely returning to the Imperial City. It had been over a month since they parted ways in Longyan Mountains.
The crowd dispersed one after another, and there were only a few people left on the scene. The three of them walked and talked as they went.
"To be honest with you, this time we came back, mainly because something major happened in the imperial palace."
Chen Yusheng didn't treat Liu Wuxie as an outsider. This kind of talk was rare, even among close friends, and it was the first time he had mentioned it to someone outside his inner circle.
In recent years, the power of the Yan imperial court has been declining, and King Yongcham has been constantly eroding the emperor's power, already grasping more than half of the military power. Plotting to usurp the throne is only a matter of time.
At the slightest stir, there will be rumors and panic.
"What's wrong?"
Liu Wuxie didn't want to ask in the first place, but since Chen Yusheng brought it up himself, not responding would be impolite as a friend.
"This is a long story, this time the royal change, has a great relationship with you."
With no one around, Chen Yusheng suddenly lowered his voice, unexpectedly this time the Great Yan Empire had a major change, and it was closely related to Liu Wuxie.
Knitting his brow, Liu Wuxie seemed to have guessed something, but was still uncertain. "This is not a place for conversation, if the two seniors don't mind, let's go to my courtyard and chat."
So as not to have walls with ears, Liu Wu invited him out.
……
Close the courtyard gate, Liu Wuxie stretched out his hand and beckoned, four array flags were inserted into the four corners of the yard, a formless light screen enveloped the roof, even if someone's divine consciousness checked, they couldn't penetrate inside.
This formation does not restrict personal freedom, its main purpose is to prevent other people's divine consciousness from sneaking in and eavesdropping on their conversations.
Chen Yusheng and his wife exchanged a glance, seeing a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
At a young age, his innate talent in Taoism is exceptionally outstanding, and his martial arts skills far surpass those of his peers. Who would have thought that he has mastered the Array Technique to such an extent?
The three of them sat down separately, and Qin Biyu personally poured tea for the two of them.
In the eyes of the couple, Liu Wuxie was no longer a young man. In terms of realm, they were higher than Liu Wuxie, and in terms of combat power, they couldn't be compared to Liu Wuxie.
On that day in Longyan Mountain Range, he easily killed Xuan Yuan Guang and Cui Sheng.
There is no outsider here, and we can talk freely.
"Please go ahead, Mr. Chen."
Liu Wuxie had guessed some of it in his heart, but he still hoped to hear it from Chen Yusheng's mouth. He didn't expect one of his actions would cause such a huge shock.
"Do you still remember Xing Yun's affairs?"
Chen Yusheng took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and it wasn't until he returned to the Imperial City that he learned about Xing Yun's affairs. He didn't expect Liu Wuxie to have done so many shocking things.
He nodded slightly, which was taken as an answer, roughly matching what he had guessed in his mind.
"After the plot of Xue Huan Dan was exposed, King Yongzhen lost his financial resources and had no way to cultivate Hei Jia Si Shi. He could no longer delay it. Without being fed with Hei Jia Dan, Hei Jia Si Shi would become violent and kill each other."
Chen Yusheng had long known about Yong Xiang Wang's cultivation of Black Armor Death Guards and had no countermeasures for the time being.
Continuing to nod, the Black Armor Guards had to take a Black Armor Pill every day to control their ferocity. Xing Yun Pavilion had long since closed down, as refining the Black Armor Pills required a large amount of resources. Having lost the Blood Illusion Pill market, Xing Yun Pavilion was already struggling to make ends meet.
Yong Xiang Wang had no choice but to dig into his own pocket and buy a large quantity of medicinal materials for refining the Black Armor Dan, which was still like trying to put out a fire with a cup of water.
It has been more than twenty days since then, and King Yongzheng has spent a large amount of money, which is almost unsustainable.
"Your meaning is that Prince Yongzhao wants to rebel ahead of schedule!"
Things are basically clear now. Originally, Yong Wang and others planned to take action when the time was ripe, but Liu Wuxie's appearance disrupted his layout and launched a political coup (to avoid harmony, homophonic character). Now the Great Yan Imperial Court is in crisis on all sides.
"It's no longer just rebellion, but impeachment."
If it were just a simple rebellion, so be it. At most, we'd have to engage in an all-out battle. The Emperor's grasp on the Stone-Breaking Army is firm, and after operating for so many years, he isn't someone to be underestimated. It won't be easy for King Yongzhao to stage a coup.
"What's the meaning of this?"
Liu Wu Xie was somewhat bewildered. He guessed the predicament of King Yong Xiang. If he didn't resolve the Black Armor Dead Servant issue, his efforts over the years would be in vain.
"My elder brother is ill, very seriously so. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Duke of Yong and other officials want to establish a new ruler. Those two incompetent nephews of mine, one is an idiot and the other is a blockhead, it's hard for people to believe in them if they ascend to the throne. Every day, because of this matter, the court is in an uproar."
Chen Yusheng furrowed his brow, bringing up the matter was like adding fuel to the fire. Now many people in the imperial court have already turned against Yong Xiang Wang.
"Has anyone suggested that Prince Yongzheng succeed to the throne?"
Liu Wuxie understood the situation of the imperial family, the emperor was ill, two princes, one foolish and one stupid, not worthy of inheriting the throne.
Yong Xiang Wang is the younger brother of the current emperor, with imperial bloodline. His older brother fell ill, and as his younger brother, he stepped forward to take charge of state affairs, which is reasonable.
"Presented, Hu Bu Shi Lang Xue Chun Yu."
Liu Wuxie's eyes narrowed, he didn't expect the Xue family to stand on the side of King Yongxian, openly opposing the imperial court and advocating for King Yongxian to take over the government.
"I understand now, King Yongzhao's plot has turned from a covert scheme to an overt one, openly forcing the Emperor to abdicate and taking his place."
Liu Wuxie basically understood that a country cannot be without a ruler for a day, the emperor's body is not good, and choosing a new monarch to lead everyone, even those neutral courtiers can't say anything.
The room fell into a brief silence, and Liu Wuxie didn't want to get too involved in the affairs of the Great Yan Dynasty.
Kill Qin Shi, at most half a year, he will leave, and does not want to cause more trouble.
What's more!
He detested this secular world's imperial struggle more than anything; all his thoughts were focused on cultivation, and he aspired to ascend to the Immortal Realm as soon as possible.
Only the immortal emperor can live as long as heaven.
Mortals, nothing but a fleeting hundred years of life.
"I'm innocent! I have something to ask of you!"
Chen Yusheng suddenly stood up, with a pleading expression on his face, and then suddenly bowed deeply.
"Master Chen, what are you doing? Is there something on your mind? Just give me an order and I won't refuse."
Longyan Mountain Range, Chen Yusheng had a lifesaving grace for him. Although he later saved their lives as well, this kindness was still remembered in his heart.
If Chen Yusheng hadn't stood up for himself, he would have been killed by Cui Yu long ago and none of the subsequent events would have occurred.
"I know you're skilled in medicine, able to diagnose problems with just a glance. I'd like to ask you to examine and treat my elder cousin."
Chen Yusheng's face showed a difficult expression, he also knew that some things were hard to accomplish.
It's come to this, and all we can do is make a dead horse into a live one for treatment.
"Even the imperial physician can't do anything about it?"
Liu Wu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, she hadn't expected Chen Yusheng to make this request.
Even if the imperial physician is at a loss for what to do, what good would it do for him to go again?
"No choice, can't find any symptoms, hope Liu Xiao will reluctantly follow me into the palace, whether or not we can cure it, I won't treat little brother unfairly."
It's not that Chen Yusheng was forced to, he wouldn't have begged a junior otherwise.
"Let me think about it!"
Liu Wuxie fell into deep thought and did not respond directly. Once entering the palace, she would be drawn into this whirlpool and it would be difficult to remain unaffected.
"Liu Xiao Di, have you ever thought that if my brother suddenly dies, how many people will die unjustly, the Great Yan Empire will instantly split into four or five parts, war and chaos will erupt, and those innocent civilians will be displaced."
Chen Yusheng gazed at Liu Wuxie with a fervent look in his eyes. Seeing the expression on Cangsheng's face, he went into the palace to take a look.
If Liu Wuxie doesn't agree at this point, he would become a criminal guilty of ten capital offenses.
When war breaks out, it is still ordinary people who suffer and bear the chaos of war.
"When will we set off!"
Chen Yusheng's fervent gaze made Liu Wuxie unable to refuse.
"Great, it's still early, let's enter the palace now!"
Chen Yusheng was usually very taciturn and had a tight face, but when leading troops in battle, he showed too much leniency, making it difficult to command the army.
The habits I've cultivated over the years, never thought that today would be an exception, it's like a different person.
The three men left the house and rushed straight to the imperial palace.
Not yet out of Imperial College, a general rushed in hastily.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The Emperor's condition has suddenly taken a turn for the worse and he has fallen into a deep coma."
This general was sent by Chen Yuanshan to guard in the palace, and if anything happened, he would be the first to inform him.
I didn't expect my brother's condition to become so severe in just one day. When I went to see him yesterday, he still had some consciousness.
"Let's hurry up and go!"
Liu Wuxie also realized the severity of the situation. With Ren Huang's death, Yong Shang Wang would smoothly ascend to the throne and he would be the first one not to let him off.
For justice or personal reasons, Liu Wuxie must save the current Emperor.
Four people dodged and weaved through the streets.
Less than an hour later, standing outside the palace gate.
"Halt! Who goes there?"
Five soldiers suddenly came out from behind the door and blocked Chen Yusheng and others, prohibiting them from entering the palace.
"How bold! Don't you even recognize me?"
Chen Yusheng was very angry, others entering the imperial palace needed to report, he was the younger brother of the emperor and could come and go freely in the palace.
"Your Majesty King of Yu Yang, please don't put us in a difficult position. Without an imperial edict, no one can enter the palace."
Five guards stood in a row, refusing them entry into the palace.
Chen Yusheng did not dare to rush in directly, lest he leave a handle for others to grasp and be stripped of his military power.
If I don't go in, there's no way for me to treat my cousin's illness, and I'm stuck in a dilemma.
"Director Chen, you should all know him as the leader of the imperial guards in the palace."
Liu Wuxie's gaze swept over the five of them, a cold smile floating at the corner of his mouth.
"Almost all of them know each other!"
Chen Yusheng replied truthfully, it's impossible to know every guard, but he knew those at the commander level.
"Ask them which jurisdiction they belong to!" said Liu Wuxie.
A bad idea emerged in his mind, and Chen Yusheng's body released a strong killing intent. "Who is your leader? Report truthfully."
He shouted loudly, causing the five people to retreat a big step back.
"King of Yu Yang, you have a big nerve, daring to sneak into the palace privately, this is a capital offense."
Five guards unwilling to show weakness, took a step forward, forcing Chen Yusheng and others to retreat.
"They are not the palace guards, the real gatekeepers, if I'm not mistaken, should already be dead."
Liu Wu Xie didn't want to admit it, but everything that was happening in front of him was just like he had guessed.
"I remember now, when I left the palace, it wasn't those few who served as attendants."
The general who came to report thought back and felt that these few people were too unfamiliar, having never seen them before.
