The Night Banquet Building is the emperor's territory. The emperor knows exactly when Xiao Jiuan and Chu Hao went in and out, what dishes were ordered, and what words were said. It was precisely because he knew everything that the emperor was angry.
"Sure enough, he already knew." Knowing that the Night Banquet Building was his place, he still chose to entertain Chu Hao in the Night Banquet Building. This was simply a provocation.
As expected, Xiao Jiuan paid less and less attention to him. The Chu family was not a good person either. They knew that Xiao Jiuan had evil intentions, but they still got closer and closer to Xiao Jiuan.
"The Chu family has indeed been disobedient for a long time. They knew that the owner of the Night Banquet House was me, but they still interacted with Xiao Jiu'an without any scruples. They simply didn't take me seriously." Whether it was the reaction of Xiao Jiu'an or Chu Hao, both
The emperor was extremely angry and wanted to kill the person with a knife, but neither Xiao Jiuan nor Chu Hao was someone he could touch easily.
After the emperor became angry, he ordered: "Send someone to keep an eye on the Chu family and Xiao Jiu'an, and collect evidence of the Chu family's crimes." He came to expose it if it was not possible. He did not believe that the Chu family had been operating in the military for many years and had not committed any crimes.
Before the emperor's anger subsided, another guard came to report: "Your Majesty, the Black Stone Castle outside the city collapsed, and everyone inside is dead."
Blackstone Castle is the branch of the Demonic Cult in Tianqi, so named because it is built of black stone.
"Who did it?" The emperor asked, suppressing the fear in his heart.
Although he has never been to Blackstone Castle, he also knows how strong Blackstone Castle is. That place is not much worse than the Royal Palace. Anyone who takes action can overthrow Blackstone Castle overnight. What about the Royal Palace?
Can it be pushed down easily?
"There is no evidence yet, but judging from the situation at the scene, the smell is similar to the collapse of the rocky mountain outside the city some time ago." There was a smell of sulfur in both places, and no one believed it was an accident.
"Xiao Jiu'an?" The emperor guessed it as soon as he heard it, but the guard did not dare to make a conclusion. He only said: "The humble position is suspected to be related to the Yanbei Palace, but looking at the traces on the scene, it doesn't look like someone from the Yanbei Palace moved it.
The person who did it was extremely powerful, and there was more than one person."
Although everyone was blown to pieces and burned into black coal, there are still traces of the scene.
"Send someone to find out. Also, let someone check out the recent trends of the Demon Sect." Xiao Jiu'an has always been a man of his own. To put it nicely, it is called peace, but to put it more realistically, it is selfish. The Demon Sect has not offended Xiao Jiu'an, so he can do whatever he wants.
People from the Demon Cult killed people and set fires, but Xiao Jiuan would not pay any attention to them.
If Xiao Jiuan really took over Blackstone Castle, then it must be someone from the Demon Cult who did something to anger Xiao Jiuan.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The guard received the order and retreated. Halfway through, he suddenly heard the emperor saying: "Go and call the commander of the imperial army. I want to see him."
When the three-day period is up, whether Ji Xin is found or not, the commander of the Forbidden Army must give him an explanation.
It was no accident that the commander of the Imperial Army did not find Ji Xin, but he did not find anything. After several days of searching, he also found some clues.
In order to reduce the punishment, the commander of the imperial army did not dare to hide a word, and told the emperor one by one the doubtful points he discovered.
"The person who kidnapped Ji Xin is suspected to be a member of the Demon Cult?" If this is the case, then the person who overturned the Black Stone Castle must be Xiao Jiu'an.
Xiao Jiuan actually had such a powerful thing in his hand. It seemed that Xiao Jiuan had someone test this thing last time in the forest outside the city.
Xiao Jiuan is really bold. If he tests such a powerful weapon under his nose, is he completely ignoring him as an emperor?
"I found some evidence, but because the other party left the capital first, I can't investigate further." The commander of the imperial army lowered his head, and beads of sweat fell from his forehead one by one. He did not dare to wipe it away.
"Continue to investigate, I want certain information." When it comes to people in the world, the emperor will inevitably feel uneasy.
Not to mention the weapons in Xiao Jiuan's hands that could destroy Blackstone Castle, Ji Xin's ability to control all kinds of beasts made the emperor fearful.
It is absolutely impossible for people from the Demon Cult to take Ji Xin away just to support Ji Xin.
There were so many facts before us that at that moment, it was impossible to deny that Ji Xin was the one who could control all the beasts.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The commander of the Forbidden Army who escaped the disaster secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor asked him to continue the investigation, which meant that he would not take his life. As long as he behaves well in the future, this problem can be solved.
The commander of the imperial army bowed down, made some arrangements, and took his confidants out of the city to track down Ji Xin's traces and the movements of the demon sect.
Xiao Jiuan received the news before he arrived at the military camp and sneered: "It seems that the emperor's people are not slow either."
Having found out the head of the Demon Cult so quickly, it was not in vain that he blew up the Blackstone Castle yesterday.
However, before Xiao Jiuan could give an order to keep an eye on the emperor's people, the soldiers in the vanguard turned back and said: "Your Majesty, Princess Tianwu blocked the way in front and said she wanted to see the prince."
"No." Xiao Jiuan said without thinking.
To him, Princess Tianwu was just a dispensable person, which meant that Princess Tianwu could not see clearly.
The soldier paused and said awkwardly: "Princess Tianwu said that if she refuses to see her, she will chase her to the camp outside the city to find the princess."
Xiao Jiuan frowned slightly and said with a cold face: "Let her come over."
"Yes." Xiaobing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and soon brought Princess Tianwu over.
Maybe things have been going wrong recently, and Princess Tianwu looks extremely haggard, and the clothes on her body are also a bit loose and empty.
Xiao Jiuan sat on the horse and glanced at Princess Tianwu condescendingly: "Princess, what's the matter?"
"I want to discuss it with you alone." Princess Tianwu looked up at Xiao Jiuan, with a trace of fascination flashing in her gloomy eyes.
She really likes Xiao Jiu'an, likes her very much, but Xiao Jiu'an doesn't believe it.
"There's no need. Just say whatever the princess has to say." He didn't want to have too much interaction with Princess Tianwu, a crazy woman.
Isn’t it terrible that people are stupid? What’s terrible is that they don’t realize they are stupid and they think they are smart. Princess Tianwu is this kind of person.
He always hated dealing with fools, and Princess Tianwu happened to be one of the best.
"After all, we just got to know each other, why are you not willing to give me even this little time?" Princess Tianwu felt sad, her watery eyes seemed to be able to speak, and she looked at Xiao Jiu'an accusingly.
"The king will give you a stick of incense. If the princess wants to say it, she can say it. If she doesn't want to, please leave." Xiao Jiu'an looked calm and did not notice Princess Tianwu's pretentiousness at all.
He has seen many women like Princess Tianwu.
"You..." Princess Tianwu was embarrassed and annoyed.
All of Xiao Jiuan's actions told her that Xiao Jiuan didn't notice her at all, and that everything she did was just humiliating herself.
"If the princess has something to say, just say it, and if she doesn't, just get out of the way. I don't have time to waste time with the princess." Xiao Jiuan said impatiently, obviously hating Princess Tianwu to the extreme... (To be continued)
