Chapter five hundred and nineteenth martial arts champion
at the same time.
Youzhou War God Li Yubai also briefly went home to sit on his way through Yanjing.
I met my adopted daughter Jin Xuyi.
"Has the adoptive father, Yongzhou's God of War, been chosen?" Jin Xuyi asked enthusiastically, "How come you haven't seen any news!?"
"Well, the selection has been made." Li Yubai nodded. "It seems that there are still some procedures to go through, so it has not been officially announced to the world."
"Who is it?" Jin Xuyi continued to ask, and without waiting for her adoptive father to answer, she immediately said another name, "Is it Ye Kunlun!?"
Li Yubai looked at his adopted daughter with complicated eyes, and then nodded: "Yes, that's him."
"Great!" Jin Xuyi smiled, "I knew he would definitely become the new God of War!"
"Oh, it's a pity that a lot of things have happened in Yanjing recently, and I don't have time to witness the moment when he becomes the God of War!"
"But there will be an all-army meeting at the end of the month, so we can see you again then."
Seeing Jin Xuyi's adoring look, Li Yubai couldn't bear to tell her the truth: the so-called Ye Kunlun was just another name for Ye Feng.
"By the way, have you met Ye Kunlun?" Li Yubai asked curiously.
"Well, I've met him a few times." Jin Xuyi said, "It was your foster father who asked me to visit him. But that person is not easy to get in touch with and is a bit lonely, but he should be cold-hearted and kind-hearted. He even saved me once.
.”
Hearing this, Li Yubai felt even more strange. He originally thought that the two of them had never met before.
After all, if you have seen Ye Kunlun, don't you recognize that Ye Kunlun is Ye Feng?
Of course, Li Yubai didn't know it, and Ye Kunlun showed another face.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now." Li Yubai changed the subject and asked with concern, "What's going on here? As soon as I came back, I heard that you were suspended?"
"what is going on?"
Jin Xuyi said seriously: "In the past two days, many strange cases have occurred in the city."
"Dozens of people have been sucked out of their essence and blood and turned into mummies."
"The Ministry of Rites took the opportunity to impeach me, saying that it was caused by our mistakes in the work of the Yanjing Guard."
"Mummy?" Li Yubai said, "It seems that there is a demon causing trouble here! No wonder when I came here, I found that the city is not as bustling and lively as it used to be."
"Yes." Jin Xuyi said, "Because of this incident, people are so panicked that many people don't dare to go out after dark."
"The superiors only gave me twelve hours to solve the case and deliberately made things difficult. For this reason, I was suspended. The case was also transferred to the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Qintian Prison for joint investigation."
"The group of astrologers from Qintian Prison also want to cooperate with the investigation?" Li Yubai was slightly startled when he heard this, and said in deep thought, "It seems that this case is not simple."
"I already have a clue!" Jin Xuyi said firmly, "It's a pity that the time given to me is too tight. If I had one more day of grace, I would definitely be able to solve the case!"
"But it doesn't matter. Although I have been suspended, Yan Jingwei still listens to my transfer and can investigate secretly!"
Li Yubai asked curiously: "What step have you found? What's the clue?"
"I have traced it to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion!" Jin Xuyi said, "The clues will be cut off once they reach there."
"The Imperial Preceptor!?" Li Yubai was shocked when he heard this, "Is this case related to the Imperial Preceptor? The Imperial Preceptor doesn't look like that kind of monster, does he?"
The old Imperial Preceptor in Li Yubai's impression was indeed a strange person. Since he was granted the title of Imperial Preceptor, he had prayed for Daxia's blessings, good weather, and peace for the country and the people.
It is somewhat unbelievable to say that such a righteous person is related to the strange mummy case.
"Do you need me to send someone to assist you in your investigation?" Li Yubai was a little uneasy.
"No need." Jin Xuyi said, "Yan Jingwei has enough manpower."
Li Yubai warned again and again: "Since this case may involve the Imperial Master, it is destined to be not simple. You must be more careful and don't get stuck in it and be unable to escape."
"Yes, foster father, I know more
Be careful." Jin Xuyi nodded.
Li Yubai wanted to ask more questions, but then his deputy Hu Fei suddenly walked in and whispered a few words in his ear.
"That person has also arrived in Yanjing."
"Sure enough!" Li Yubai's eyes lit up and he set off immediately.
"Father, it's so late, you still want to go out?" Jin Xuyi thought that her foster father would stay here to rest tonight.
"Yeah." Li Yubai responded, walked out of the house with his head held high, and said with emotion, "Go kill someone!"
at the same time.
The Ministry of War also held a meeting overnight to discuss the selection of the Yongzhou God of War.
"I didn't expect that the boy named Ye would have a tiger talisman!?" Minister of the Ministry of War, sitting in a high position, had a sad look on his face. "It completely disrupted our plan."
"That's right!" Shen Changqing, the Minister of War, also agreed, "When he took out the tiger talisman and ordered the three armies, he couldn't stop me."
The reappearance of Qin Wuan's tiger talisman really shocked everyone in the Ministry of War.
"Lord Shangshu!" Shen Changqing added, "Now, Ye Kunlun has been able to easily mobilize Yongzhou's 300,000 troops, and has successfully killed 10,000 overseas Qingmen's masters. He has the legacy of the previous generation of Yongzhou's God of War, and is deeply loved by Yongzhou.
The trust of the soldiers."
"I'm afraid that he will take root in the local area, so I brought him back to Yanjing for the time being. I also hope that Lord Shangshu will make a decision as soon as possible."
Hearing this, the Minister of War nodded and said: "You have done a good job. If he stays in Yongzhou, he will definitely be a trouble, because he will be away from home, and your life will be compromised."
"Now that he returns to Yanjing, we can operate calmly. We might as well give him a false position and appoint a new God of War!"
After everyone heard this, they felt that this was also a solution.
"I'm afraid..." Shen Changqing said worriedly, "The new God of War will find it difficult to convince the public! Even if he is sent to Yongzhou, he will not be able to control the tiger and wolf troops in Yongzhou!"
After all, Ye Kunlun's name has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Yongzhou Army, and it is difficult for ordinary people to replace him.
The Minister of War sneered: "Which is the lesser of two evils! Chang Qing, don't you even understand this account?"
"Do you want a new God of War who respects his troops and is completely outside the control of our military department?"
"Or do you want one of our own who will be entrusted by us, even if we cannot mobilize local soldiers and generals?"
As far as the Ministry of War is concerned, even if Yongzhou's 300,000 troops are stationed in place, they must not lose control and fall into the hands of others.
Shen Changqing was suddenly surprised when he heard this: "It's because I'm humble and don't think carefully. It's just like what the Master said!"
"It's just that who should be sent to take the post so that it can be justified?"
After all, the candidate for the God of War was suddenly changed again. If you don't want to convince the public, you have to consider the public opinion.
The Minister of War thought for a while and finally made his decision: "Hasn't this year's top military scholar been selected?"
"Let the current military champion take over the position of Yongzhou God of War, and let's see who dares to criticize him!"
