Chapter eight hundred and fourth the hesitant emperor
Even as an emperor, he is still curious, so just like those informants, Li Yan and others entered the East Factory to find out what happened and why they never saw anyone coming out after entering.
Cai Jing's eyes fell on Chu Yi. Needless to say, Cai Jing was also concerned about this. After all, the Imperial City Division was at least one of his forces.
Now that the Imperial City Division has had such a big accident, it would be strange if Cai Jing ignored it.
Chu Yi looked quite calm when he heard Chu Yi slowly say: "Your Majesty, Imperial City Secretary Li Yan, Huang Guan and others colluded with the remnants of the Xiaoyao Sect to do evil, and they have all been killed by Dongchang.
!”
"puff!"
Zhao Ji, who had just taken a cup of tea from Yang Jian and took a sip, immediately spat out a sip of tea after hearing Chu Yi's words, even causing a violent cough.
Yang Jian quickly slapped Zhao Ji on the back. Even so, Yang Jian looked at Chu Yi in disbelief, as if he was trying to tell whether Chu Yi was joking.
Cai Jing also stared at Chu Yi with wide eyes, as if he wanted to see through Chu Yi. But under his gaze, Chu Yi's expression remained unchanged and was not affected at all.
Zhao Ji, who finally stopped after a while, looked at Chu Yi and said, "You...what did you say? Li Yan and others colluded with the remnants of the Xiaoyao sect and have been killed by Dongchang?"
You can imagine the impact Chu Yi's words had on Zhao Ji. Zhao Ji is not a fool. If he were to say that others were colluding with the remnants of the Xiaoyao sect, he might still believe it. However, it is simply not possible for people from the Imperial City Division to collude with the Xiaoyao sect.
This is the most ridiculous thing in the world.
Not to mention him, no one with a right mind would believe this. Are the people in the Imperial City Division crazy? They would actually collude with the remnants of the Xiaoyao Sect. Even if they have to make up a reason, then they have to make up a reason that can
A reason for people to accept it.
Chu Yi seemed to have not noticed Zhao Ji's strange gaze, and nodded: "Yes, Li Yan and others did collude with the remnants of the Xiaoyao sect, and have been killed by the minister to uphold the laws of the imperial court."
Cai Jing on the side finally couldn't help it, pointed at Chu Yi and said: "Chu Yi, you are so brave, do you know what you are talking about?"
Zhao Ji has calmed down a lot now, but his eyes looking at Chu Yi are a little more fearful. If what Chu Yi said is true, then Chu Yi is too scary. Isn't he
Do you know what the Imperial City Division represents to the royal family?
Those are the minions of the royal family that have been raised for hundreds of years. If we want to say that Zhao Ji's most trusted subordinates are Yamen, then the Imperial City Division can definitely be regarded as one. Even the rapidly rising Dongchang cannot compare with this.
After all, the Dongchang can be said to be Chu Yi's single-handedly established institution, and the Imperial City Division has a deep entanglement with the royal family. Unlike Dongchang, Zhao Ji can only control Dongchang through Chu Yi, but if
If it was the Imperial City Department, Zhao Ji was the official who could bypass Li Yan and directly mobilize the Imperial City Department officials.
The difference between the two, anyone who is not a fool can tell which one is more trustworthy.
Facing Cai Jing's scolding, Chu Yi glanced at Cai Jing lightly and said, "Why did Prime Minister Cai say this? Chu is just eliminating hidden dangers for His Majesty. Doesn't Prime Minister Cai think that the remnants of the Xiaoyao Sect can even infiltrate the Imperial City Division?"
Is this something extremely scary?"
As he spoke, Chu Yi stared at Cai Jing and said with a half-smile: "The Imperial City Division is the foundation of the royal family. Since the Xiaoyao Sect can infiltrate, does that mean that others can also infiltrate?"
Zhao Ji, who originally had fear and anger in his heart and was about to consider how to treat Chu Yi, suddenly shrank his eyes after hearing Chu Yi's words, and felt a bit strange in his heart.
Zhao Ji glanced at Cai Jing subconsciously. He couldn't help but think that the Imperial City Division seemed to be very close to Cai Jing since it was handed over to Li Yan. So, did Cai Jing send someone to infiltrate the Imperial City Division?
Zhao Ji didn't think much about this. He believed that Cai Jing would definitely send someone to infiltrate the Imperial City Division, because this was the instinct of a person like Cai Jing.
If it were in the past, even if Zhao Ji knew this, he would not take it too seriously. But now, Zhao Ji was so stimulated by Chu Yi that his mind was in a highly sensitive stage, so he looked at Cai Jing's face.
His gaze also became strange.
Cai Jing is such an old fox. When he noticed the change in Zhao Ji's eyes, he suddenly felt a thump in his heart. Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to slander and use the emperor to suppress or even get rid of Chu Yi, but he never thought that he would be dragged into the trap by Chu Yi.
Cai Jing is very clear about Zhao Ji's temperament. Even though Zhao Ji trusts him so much, if something is not done, it will still make Zhao Ji suspicious. After all, Zhao Ji seems to be interested in him, Gao Qiu, Tong Guan or Chu Yi.
, the trust that Yang Jian and others have shows that Zhao Ji actually does not trust anyone except himself.
Taking a deep breath, Cai Jing was very smart not to criticize Chu Yi on this point, because if he continued to hold on to this matter, Cai Jing could predict that he would inevitably be dragged down, even if he could create something for Chu Yi
Damn it, but the gain outweighs the loss.
After taking a deep look at Chu Yi, Cai Jing said with a smile on his face: "If this is really the case, then this matter is really gratifying and congratulatory."
After speaking, Cai Jing saluted Zhao Ji and said, "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty."
Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jing, then at Chu Yi, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face, and he patted Chu Yi's shoulder with his big hand. He looked at Chu Yi with an extremely happy look and said, "Okay, okay, the Qing family is really not
You have lived up to my expectations and made great contributions to me, but I don’t know how the Qing family hopes that I will reward you?"
Chu Yi said with a respectful look: "This is Chu Yi's responsibility. Your Majesty does not blame me for beheading him first and telling him later. I am already crying with gratitude."
Zhao Ji said: "I know rewards and punishments clearly. This time I love you to eliminate hidden dangers for me. If I don't reward you, wouldn't it mean that I don't know rewards and punishments?"
As he spoke, Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jing and said, "Cai Qing, tell me how I should reward Chu Qing?"
Cai Jing stroked his beard and smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, I feel that your Majesty should reward Guangyang County Duke with a palace as a show of favor!"
When Zhao Ji heard this, his eyes lit up immediately and he said: "Okay, what Prime Minister Cai said is true. Chu Qing is the Duke of Guangyang, but he doesn't even have a mansion in the capital. I will reward you with a mansion today."
"
A prince's mansion given by the emperor is obviously a great honor, but glory for glory, there is not much substance. First, Chu Yi's official position has not been promoted, and his authority has not been expanded. This has shown that the emperor
A fearful attitude towards Chu Yi.
If not, Zhao Ji would not have made such a decision based on what Chu Yi did.
Watching Chu Yi leave, Zhao Ji breathed an inexplicable sigh of relief. In fact, when he faced Chu Yi just now, Zhao Ji actually felt a little pressure as the emperor.
He shook his head and cleared away the inexplicable thoughts in his heart. As the emperor, although he was afraid of Chu Yi, the fear was just fear. At least Zhao Ji believed that he could completely erase Chu Yi if he wanted to.
, at least Chu Yi is still under his control.
Cai Jing glanced at Yang Jian, stepped forward and said to Zhao Ji: "Your Majesty, Chu Yi is really too arrogant, does he still have your Majesty in his eyes?"
When Chu Yi left just now, the look and attitude in Cai Jing's eyes could not be seen at all. Cai Jing did not see a trace of awe for the imperial power in Chu Yi's eyes.
At this moment, Yang Jian suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I suspect that Admiral Chu has broken through to the realm of heaven and man."
"What?"
Zhao Ji, who had been thinking about how to erase Chu Yi next, was so stimulated by Yang Jian's words that his whole expression changed drastically.
Although he is the emperor, he also knows that the status of a strong man at the heaven and human level may not be inferior to him. Of course, he still respects him as the emperor on the surface, but privately, a strong man at the heaven and human level is not even a dynasty.
Willing to provoke.
Cai Jing shouted almost instinctively: "This is impossible. If it is really a breakthrough to the heaven and human realm, it is absolutely impossible for me not to see it."
Yang Jian sneered and said: "Then, can Prime Minister Cai tell me how Admiral Chu killed many powerful people from the Imperial City Division, including Li Yan, Huang Guan and others?"
As he spoke, Yang Jian looked at Zhao Ji and said: "Your Majesty, you should know that there are many experts in the Imperial City Division. Since Zhou Dong left, even if there are no powerful heavenly men in charge of the Imperial City Division, there are still countless experts who are half a step above the heavenly level in the Imperial City Division."
People, according to what Chu Yi said, those who besieged Dongchang included Huang Guan and other half-step celestial beings. Even if the same celestial beings were strong enough to fight, they were still killed. So, what is this?
Apart from heavenly beings, who else in the world can kill a few half-step heavenly beings in such an understatement? Those are several half-step heavenly beings, not just ordinary people."
After hearing Yang Jian's explanation, Zhao Ji believed it. He exhaled, felt a little relieved and said, "If this is really the case, then I can feel at ease."
Cai Jing frowned, but he didn't believe it in his heart, but what Yang Jian said was not unreasonable. If Chu Yi really didn't make a breakthrough, then how did Chu Yi kill those half-step heavenly beings in the Imperial City Division?
Of.
However, Chu Yi was said to be in a good mood when he came out of the palace. Zhao Ji was wary of him, but Chu Yi was not worried at all.
Unless Zhao Ji is sure to take him down in one fell swoop without causing any trouble, Zhao Ji will definitely not provoke him casually.
What Chu Yi wanted was this result. The emperor Zhao Ji dragged the Northern Song Dynasty into the abyss, which directly led to the humiliation of Jingkang. Chu Yi really didn't have much favorable impressions of such an emperor.
Dongchang
Lin Chong, Xu Ning, Guan Sheng and others were looking at the captured Li Yan, Huang Guan and others with hesitant expressions.
According to Chu Yi's instructions, they needed to kill Li Yan, Huang Guan and others. However, as people from Dongchang, Lin Chong and the others knew very well what would happen to Li Yan, Huang Guan and others once they killed them.
Such consequences.
Xu Ning looked at Lin Chong who looked hesitant and said: "Brother Lin, the Admiral ordered us to kill these people before entering the palace. What should we do?"
Although Li Yan, Huang Guan and others were banned from cultivation, their eyes and ears were clear. Especially when Lin Chong and others looked at them, the complicated expressions in their eyes made them extremely curious.
After hearing Xu Ning's words, Li Yan, Huang Guan and others' hearts suddenly trembled.
Even if they fell into the hands of Chu Yi, Li Yan, Huang Guan and the others were not very panicked because they believed that the emperor would definitely save them. However, what did they hear?
Lin Chong, Xu Ning and others actually discussed whether to kill them according to Chu Yi's instructions, which almost made Li Yan faint from fear.
Huang Guan looked at Xu Ning, Lin Chong, Guan Sheng and others with a pale face and laughed loudly: "If I were you, I would choose to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. Chu Yi actually dared to kill us. This is simply rebellion. The officials are absolutely determined."
If you won’t spare him, are you willing to be implicated in it and end up confiscating your family and exterminating your clan?”
Huang Guan's words made Li Yan come back to his senses. As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he stared at Lin Chong and others and said: "You are all the pillars of our Song Dynasty. If you are destroyed because of Chu Yi, it will be really terrible."
This is a huge loss to our Song Dynasty, and Li can guarantee it here. As long as you can let us go, then Li will definitely recommend it to the emperor, and we will be able to rise to prominence in just a few days!"
Suddenly, Lin Chong suddenly shouted: "Kill!"
While speaking, although Lin Chong said he was not carrying a spear, he reached out with one hand and slapped Li Yan on the chest with a light slap. Li Yan had a look of disbelief on his face and looked down at his collapsed chest.
, and then looked at Lin Chong with a cold expression, his vision went dark, his body went limp and he lost his breath.
Huang Guan exclaimed, pointed at Lin Chong and shouted: "Lin Chong, are you crazy?"
To be honest, even Guan Sheng and Xu Ning were shocked by Lin Chong's sudden behavior.
Just now, they were still hesitating whether to follow Chu Yi's instructions and kill these people from the Imperial City Division, but in the blink of an eye, Lin Chong slapped Li Yan to death.
Lin Chong's gaze slowly swept over Guan Sheng and Xu Ning and said, "Don't you guys understand yet? The Admiral and we are like grasshoppers on a rope. We can't run away from the Admiral, and we can't run away either.
We have already left a deep imprint on us, if the Admiral is destroyed, then we will not be able to escape either."
It was because of understanding these that Lin Chong made a decisive choice.
Guan Sheng, Xu Ning and the others looked at each other and stepped forward together. Soon, in the secret room, dozens of senior officials of the Imperial City Division, including several celestial beings, and more than a dozen supreme grand masters were captured by just a few.
People were beheaded lightly.
When Lin Chong walked towards Huang Guan, Huang Guan shouted as if he was crazy: "You must die a good death, Your Majesty will not spare you."
