Chapter 670 An important minister who cannot be killed
The Demon Emperor let out a long sigh, turned around and walked out: "You can spend the night in Ganquan Hall. But early tomorrow morning, follow me up the mountain and surrender."
"From now on, I can no longer enter the palace to see you." Imperial Master Qingyang knelt down with tears streaming down his face, "You must take care of yourself!"

Lingxu City spent the most restless night in the past century.
The Tiangong Guards who originally guarded Xushan entered the city without saying a word, and laid siege to Qinggong with open fire.
These two places are almost equally sacred and equally unattainable in the hearts of the people, but now they are acting like enemies.
Simply unbelievable.
The monument in some people's hearts suddenly collapsed.
And I heard that the Tiangong Guards were attacking in earnest, and they could not get out of the Qinggong Gate. The artillery fire roared on the hill, and the onlookers at the foot of the hill stretched their necks, but they could only see half of the sky reflected in red.
Fu Shanyue insisted on listening to others' advice to eat enough, and returned directly to Pianxiang Villa, only sending someone out to investigate.
About three hours later, the first-hand news came:
The Tiangong Guards stopped attacking and returned to Xushan.
The Qing Palace was not breached, dozens of disciples were injured, but no one died.
At that time, Fu Shanyue and He Lingchuan were setting up a barbecue on the grass. Hearing this, he took a bite of the roasted lamb leg and said, "It seems that the Tiangong Guards were not ruthless either."
"After all, that's the Qing Palace." Try another place? Bai Ziqi can burn it to rubble in half an hour.
Of course, Qing Palace's defensive array is also excellent, and He Lingchuan just saw it with his own eyes.
Even if Imperial Master Qingyang pleads guilty this time, there will still be new Imperial Masters taking over the Qing Palace in the future. After all, this is one of the most prestigious institutions of real power in Lingxu City. If God really blows it to pieces, it will be nothing like beating it to pieces.
How big is the difference between Lingxu Cheng's face and the emperor's slap?
Not to mention that there are so many foreign guests in Lingxu City, so don’t embarrass yourself to the whole world.
Therefore, Bai Ziqi's siege of Qing Palace was at best just a show, going through the motions and quitting as soon as it was good.
"This is to force the emperor to deal with Qingyang Imperial Master ruthlessly." Fu Shanyue was leisurely wandering around, and He Lingchuan saw that he was not worried about the emperor's worries at all, nor was he annoyed by the emperor's worries.
This guy really doesn't know how to fulfill his duties as a servant.
"It's unexpected that Bai Duzhi's methods are so drastic." He Lingchuan knew Bai Ziqi's temperament after having fought with him several times. He was a smiling tiger who rarely offended people in person.
Now, directly dragging the Tiangong Guards to attack the Qing Palace, this is not in line with his character at all. He can only fulfill the requirements of the gods.
Does the god think it is necessary to give the emperor eye drops like this?
"The Tiangong Guards have withdrawn their troops because the God of Heaven has issued a new order." Fu Shanyue said again, "Guess where the Qingyang Imperial Master is now?"
"Qingyang Imperial Master is not so easy to be caught." He Lingchuan pondered, "The gods don't dare to go too far. Well, let's take a blind guess. The emperor was furious. Maybe the gods made some concessions?"
Fu Shanyue suddenly felt something was wrong: "Wait a minute! Are you saying that Imperial Master Qingyang can get away with it?"
He is not afraid of the Qingyang Imperial Master's escape. No matter how noble her original position is, she will be pulled down from the shrine if she is a fugitive, and will be punished by the Bejia demon people verbally and writtenly. The demon kingdom of the feudal vassal is happy to see this.
But the more Fu Shan worried that Imperial Master Qingyang could still escape the blame, then wouldn't what he and his son had done be in vain?
"It is impossible to completely escape guilt, but Imperial Master Qingyang still has some advantages." He Lingchuan analyzed carefully, "The subsequent development of this matter may not be to your liking."
Fu Shanyue sat up straighter: "You speak, I listen."
"Qingyang Imperial Master has known the emperor for many years, has a deep relationship, and is a loyal royalist. Regardless of past friendship or seeing the actual situation, the emperor may want to deal with her softly." The wine has also warmed up, and he congratulated her.
Lingchuan picked it up and took a sip, "Just looking at the extremely radical measures that the gods told Bai Ziqi to take, we know that they also expected that the emperor would be soft-hearted, so they took action to force him."
"Most of them have put a lot of effort into the plan to siege Qing Palace. As long as Qingyang Imperial Master stays in Qing Palace, the outcome is unpredictable." He said slowly, "As a result, Qingyang Imperial Master heard the news and took action without entangled with them at all.
The legs ran away. This time, the gods and Shuangye must have been unexpected."
Fu Shanyue's face darkened slightly. He had been worried for a long time, but He Lingchuan got it right.
"If Imperial Master Qingyang is not caught - which is extremely possible - there is a great possibility that she can escape into Lingxiao Palace in time. In other words, she may be hiding in Lingxiao Palace now. Lingxu
The city is so big, and it is one of the few places where the Tiangong Guards dare not commit a minor offense."
Fu Shanyue nodded.
"Bai Ziqi also thinks that she will sneak into Lingxiao Palace, so let's assume that she has already met the emperor." He Lingchuan continued, "This is the last chance she gets for herself. She must persuade the emperor to let her go tonight.
One horse."
The more Fushan thought about it, the more annoyed he became: "The emperor is willing to risk the disapproval of the world?"
"How can there be so much disgrace in the world?" He Lingchuan laughed, "It's just about whether the words she says or the things she brings out can impress the emperor."
"Does this old witch still have chips in her hand?" Fu Shanyue exhaled, "Yes, how can a human spirit who has lived for almost two hundred years not leave any backup plan?"
"The elixir case has been fermenting in Lingxu City for a month. She has enough time to think about the future." He Lingchuan said seriously, "She is the Bejia Imperial Master. She has survived more than a hundred years of trials and hardships, so how can she be a simple person?
?”
The fact that the Qingyang Imperial Master was implicated in the elixir case this time is mostly due to luck.
Without He Lingchuan's intervention, Xi Yunhe's many arrangements would not have come into effect.
Without Imperial Master Shuangye pushing him behind, He Lingchuan would never have been able to do this.
"Think carefully, what mistake did Imperial Master Qingyang make that deserves death?"
Fu Shanyue frowned: "Privately refining and selling the elixir privately, isn't this considered? It is expressly prohibited by the gods."
"There are so many things forbidden by the gods, does everyone follow them?" He Lingchuan glanced at him, "The descendants of the Yuan Kingdom are not allowed to leave the Twilight Plains. Those who violate it will be reduced to the same status as untouchables. This is also a prohibition of the gods. You take Xiao Taozi back.
Do you care about crossing the border of Chiyan?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fushan Yue touched his nose and was speechless.
Yes, he himself is a typical example of knowing the law and breaking it, and he also broke the law of Lingxu City.
Otherwise, how could Zhongsun Mou have the opportunity to use the prohibition as a command arrow and try his best to embarrass him?
"It is illegal to sell the elixir privately, and it is also illegal to buy the elixir privately. Look at how many dignitaries in Lingxu City buy it. Are they really afraid of this law?" He Lingchuan said softly, "With the status of the Qingyang Imperial Master, it is the right thing to do.
If you enjoy very high privileges, how can you be guilty of the same crime as the common people whenever you break the law?"
The prince breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty. He said this just to relieve his anger. Whoever believes it will be stupid.
In fact, the more powerful a person is, the greater the "error tolerance" is.
The crime of decapitation that was imposed on civilians was only reduced to a few ranks and fined half a year's salary.
Official position is their excuse.
The most typical example that He Lingchuan could see was Fan Sheng.
"We sniped at the Chiyan envoy twice and obstructed the progress of the major case. Any civilian who dared to do this would lose his head; but look at Fan Sheng, he has now gone to the eastern front to gild."
The emperor's punishment for him was like punishing him with three drinks of wine.
Those who steal the hook will be punished, and those who steal the country will be martyred. This is the reality of Chi Guoguo.
Fu Shanyue certainly recognized this truth: "Indeed, sentencing can be light or heavy, depending on the target."
"The ban itself is not important." He Lingchuan took a sip of wine, "What is important is who the gods want to use the ban to liquidate."
"Looking at the case in detail, Imperial Master Qingyang ordered his men to kill some monsters and make some illegal drugs, and that's it? Haven't Lingxu City officials done more outrageous things?" Just these days?
While wandering around Lingxu City, He Lingchuan heard endless ridiculous things from the powerful and students, and his world view was shaken to pieces at random.
And what he heard was just a scratch.
How much filth and filth has been hidden in the imperial capital for six hundred years? It cannot be exposed to the light, and big trouble will happen if it is exposed.
Therefore, "As long as the emperor is determined to protect her, and as long as the gods no longer pursue her, Qingyang Imperial Master may not be without hope."
Fu Shanyue's face grew longer, this was what he least wanted to hear.
"Of course, things have gotten so big, Imperial Master Qingyang will definitely have to pay a heavy price." He Lingchuan patted his shoulder, "You don't have to be depressed. As for the elixir of life, the gods and emperors will give it to you and all the vassals.
Once the demon country makes an explanation and the charges are finally laid on Master Qingyang, you have already won! What else do you want?"
Fushan thought about it more and handed him two roasted lamb ribs: "Here, eat meat!"
"Well, speaking of Fan Sheng, there is another person who was also ordered to rush to the Eastern Front." Fu Shanyue said smoothly, "That is General Qingwu. He set off yesterday."
He Lingchuan stopped before chewing the meat: "General Hong got what he wanted?"
"Yes, who doesn't want to earn military merit?"
He Lingchuan smiled: "You don't want to." The better Fushan is, it will not be easy for him to become the prince. He just wants to stabilize his throne.
Fushan Yue laughed: "That's right, I don't want to."
He is already the Prince of Chiyan. The only Miao Miao of the old Fushan family, why should he strive for military glory?
Just then, the attendant came to report:
Other dignitaries sent people to express their condolences.
"Why are you asking for condolences? They just want to find out the news from me." Fu Shanyue knew it well, "These guys belong to rats. I went to the Qing Palace and they all know it!"
The gods sent troops to besiege Qing Palace. This news was really shocking to the dignitaries in Lingxu Shangcheng.
The people of Qingyang Imperial Master's group probably felt that the sky was about to fall at this moment.
Are there many people rejoicing again?
After having had enough wine and food, He Lingchuan returned to his room and immediately asked him after holding in the mirror for two hours:
"Hong Chenglue has already gone to the battlefield in the east. You have no chance to confirm whether he is Hu Bin!"
He Lingchuan poured water on his face to relieve the dryness: "That's the opposite."
"Ah?" Jing Jing was puzzled, "How did you confirm it?"
Hearing the news that Hong Chenglue was heading east, the cloud of doubt in He Lingchuan's mind had been lifted.
