"I already know about this! Ji Yinghao, go and investigate for me! Find out whoever spreads such rumors, and arrest anyone who is spreading rumors!"
In the Palace of the Five Emperors, Emperor Qin heard Ji Yinghao's report with a slightly gloomy voice.
Ji Yinghao hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Qin! The whole capital has been rumored, do they have to be arrested?"
Emperor Qin said coldly: "Catch the leader. As long as you kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, the people behind will naturally stop making trouble! But the source of the spread of the rumor must be found by me, do you understand?"
"yes!"
Ji Yinghao bowed his hands and then withdrew, but his heart was full of doubts.
He came to report, thinking that Emperor Qin would give him an explanation, but he did not expect that the latter did not explain at all, but asked him to arrest those who spread the rumors. This was a bit strange.
Although Ji Yinghao had doubts in his heart, he did not dare to disobey Emperor Qin's wishes.
"Hmph! This must be Cang Hongshen's back-up plan! This old guy is so damned, he actually revealed all the secrets of the Dragon Burial Cave, and now so many people in the capital know about it!"
Emperor Qin smashed the case to pieces with his right hand, his face a bit ferocious, the secret of the Dragon Burial Cave was very important to them.
It was spread like this, and one can imagine the anger in Emperor Qin's heart.
"Emperor Qin! Why be so angry? No one has confirmed that this news is true, so it is just a rumor! As long as we suppress the people in the capital forcefully, this public opinion storm will soon pass!"
Emperor Tang spoke quietly from the darkness, his tone full of calmness.
"But we underestimated Cang Hongshen! This old guy has cultivated many secret hands over the years, and even we don't know about it! Otherwise, this news would not have spread like this!"
Emperor Song's voice was gentle with a hint of fear.
"Hmph! It's really troublesome. Because of this old guy, our plans have been disrupted many times! I really want to kill this old guy earlier!"
Emperor Ming's voice came, full of cruelty and rebelliousness.
Emperor Qin said calmly: "I have contacted Master Yaksha before! Although he did not get all the blood essence of the Thousand Buddha Sect and the Demon Sect, he still got some of it!"
"With this part of his blood essence, although he cannot completely break the seal of Buddha and Demon, he can send out part of his power to condense a clone! It just takes time. Once the clone is successfully condensed, it will come to help us!"
As soon as this statement came out, the other four emperors were overjoyed.
"Okay! With the help of Master Yasha's clone, Cang Hong can't escape with his wings deep! I'm really afraid that after this old guy uses these three months to recover from his injuries, we may not be able to take him down! Now it's foolproof!"
Emperor Tang laughed heartily, his face full of joy, and so did the other three emperors.
Ever since they learned about Cang Hongshen's fighting situation under the Dragon Burial Cave from Yaksha, they became more and more afraid of Cang Hongshen, and they also understood that this old guy was far more powerful than they imagined.
In the following period, the imperial court began to send troops to suppress the public opinion disturbance in the capital and arrested many people.
This completely detonated countless people in the capital! Obviously, they did not expect that the Five Emperors Palace would forcefully suppress it without even an explanation. This was too overbearing.
And this move completely angered the entire capital! In their view, the Five Emperors Palace's actions were too arrogant and unreasonable.
Even if the rumors spread in the capital are false, there is no need to suppress them so violently. Doesn’t this just prove that the Five Emperors Palace has a guilty conscience?
In just a few days, the number of people arrested in the capital exceeded the capacity of the major prisons in the capital, and every prison was overcrowded.
However, the public opinion did not stop, but intensified, with more and more people in the capital coming forward.
Even some of the civil and military officials in the imperial court were affected.
Anyone who can become a Beijing official is a smart person.
Many of them were already suspicious of the Five Emperors Palace's unprovoked conviction of the chief minister of the cabinet.
However, they did not dare to oppose the authority of the Five Emperors Palace. At the same time, everyone in the court thought that it was the Five Emperors' intention to limit the power of the cabinet that targeted Cang Hongshen, so they did not think much about it.
But when the public opinion storm about the 'demon saint' arose in the capital, and after witnessing the unexpected reactions and measures of the Palace of the Five Emperors, many officials in the capital became suspicious.
Is it possible that the Five Emperors Palace reacted so excessively? Is this rumor actually somewhat true?
As a result, some censors began to report the matter to the Palace of the Five Emperors, but nothing happened.
As the situation became more serious, more and more officials from the capital began to complain, but the result was the same, and the Five Emperors Palace still did not make any statement.
This made more and more officials in the capital begin to become suspicious, and for a while, people's hearts began to fluctuate.
"Lord Shangshu Ling! Recently, there are rumors in the capital that there is an ancient demon saint sealed in the Dragon Burial Cave, and the five majesties are planning to release the ancient demon saint, and they are telling the truth!"
Outside the cabinet, Su Yuanqing, the Minister of Civil Affairs, looked at Kou Si and said in a deep voice: "What's even weirder is the attitude of the five majesties. They didn't mean to explain anything. Instead, they sent troops to suppress the people who spread the rumors. Now everyone in the capital is backlash."
It’s getting more intense and the situation is getting more intense!”
Shangshu Ling Kou Si listened to Su Yuanqing's report silently, his eyes as deep as deep water, and it was impossible to see any emotion in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, they did something wrong!"
Shangshu Ling frowned slightly and sighed softly.
"Lord Kou! Your Majesty and others are acting like this, it's so abnormal! In the past, they never sent troops to suppress rumors, but this time..." Before Su Yuanqing could finish, he was interrupted by Kou Si.
Kou Si glanced at Su Yuanqing coldly and said, "Yuan Qing! Do you still question those five people?"
Su Yuanqing quickly lowered his head and said: "Yuan Qing doesn't dare! But if this rumor is true, what should we do?"
As soon as this statement came out, the other ministers fell silent.
Although the six ministries and the cabinet are political enemies, their intrigues and intrigues over the years have already made them incompatible.
But after all, they have read the books of sages since they were young, and they all have a strong sense of right and wrong, right and wrong, and right and wrong.
The human race and the demon race are naturally opposed to each other! If the rumors are true, even if Su Yuanqing and others are close associates of the Five Emperors, they are not willing to help the Five Emperors to further their evil deeds.
Bang! Kou Si slapped Su Yuanqing on the face and said coldly: "Su Shangshu! You talked too much today! Rumors are rumors after all. Since you know they are rumors, why should you believe them?"
Su Yuanqing covered his face, lowered his head in shame, and apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Kou, it's because I'm not strong-willed enough! I've embarrassed you!"
Kou Si looked around and said in a deep voice: "Now, your mission is to break through the cabinet's formation restrictions. As for the so-called rumors, don't be affected by them! According to the current progress, it will be completely broken in another month.
Formation!"
"It is very strange that rumors have been spread during this period. You should think about and analyze it carefully. Who is this kind of rumor most beneficial to? Then who is the person behind the rumor?"
The six ministers looked stunned. When Kou Si said this, they also understood.
This kind of rumor blindly smeared the Five Emperors and elevated Cang Hongshen. They knew with their butts that Cang Hongshen was behind it.
"Now do your duty! As for the rest, don't think about it!"
Kou Si waved his sleeves and robe and said indifferently.
"yes!"
The six ministers shouted in unison and began to concentrate on breaking the formation together with the other spiritual formation masters.
