Ji Tianxing waved his hand to dismiss the old housekeeper, walked out of Tianxing Palace alone, and left the Emperor's Mansion.
The old housekeeper did not enter Zhongzhou City, nor did he see the announcement from the Imperial Court with his own eyes. He only listened to the news reported by his guards.
Therefore, Ji Tianxing wanted to enter Zhongzhou City, go to the square in the city, and check the notice posted in the Imperial Court.
It is early morning and the sun is rising in the east.
Zhongzhou City is very lively, crowded with pedestrians, and very noisy.
When he arrived at the city square, he saw that the square was already crowded with people.
Tens of thousands of people gathered in the square, surrounding the huge stone monument in the center of the square.
On the giant stone monument that is a hundred meters high, there is a huge dark gold notice with more than a dozen lines of vertical characters written on it.
The font is vigorous and powerful, showing the supreme majesty, and the signature is the seal of the Imperial Court.
Ji Tianxing stood quietly on the edge of the crowd, keeping a very low profile, silently reading the text on the notice.
I saw that the edict on the notice was basically the same as what the old housekeeper said.
As expected, the Imperial Court did not execute Long Zaitian, but demoted him to a commoner, confiscated all his wealth and power, and sent him to the border to resist the demons.
Of course, the last few sentences of the announcement mentioned the Western Wasteland God General Yu Tianhong.
Although Yu Tianhong was controlled by Long Zaitian with sorcery, he was forced to do many evil deeds and murdered countless wealthy families and innocent people.
But he knew it and did not report it, colluded with Long Zaitian, and willingly acted as his lackey, hawk and dog, which is an unforgivable crime.
The Imperial Court decided to deprive Yu Tianhong of the Western Wilderness Divine General's official position and identity, confiscate his fiefdom and family property, and withdraw him to the Eternal Holy Mountain of the Imperial Court to guard the Imperial Tomb of the Imperial Court forever.
In this way, Yu Tianhong, the once extremely glorious god who was respected by hundreds of millions of people, became a tomb keeper in the Imperial Court.
He can only stay in the imperial mausoleum of the imperial court for the rest of his life, and is not allowed to step out of the imperial mausoleum until he grows old and dies alone.
As for the position of Xihuang Divine General, the Imperial Court will soon select a new candidate to succeed him.
The imperial court's sentence against Yu Tianhong was neither too harsh nor too lenient. It was normal.
After all, Yu Tianhong was also a strong man in the Soul Refining Realm, and had guarded the border for the Imperial Court for decades.
He was coerced by Long Zaitian and was just an accomplice.
The emperor was kind-hearted and it was understandable that he did not order his execution.
While Ji Tianxing was watching the announcement, countless people's comments and exclamations kept coming to his ears.
The people of all ethnic groups in Zhongzhou City were extremely shocked and unbelievable when they saw the edict announced by the imperial court.
For many warriors and common people, this is undoubtedly the most exciting news in recent decades.
It is really unbelievable that the majestic prince of the Imperial Court and a generation of Western Wilderness divine generals all ended up like this.
"Oh my God, the Imperial Court issued such an edict? This is simply shocking!"
"Haven't the third prince of the Imperial Court always been conscientious and devoted to his duties to the Imperial Court? How could he be so evil and commit so many evil deeds that are outrageous to everyone?"
"I heard before that the third prince of the Imperial Court is extremely talented and has outstanding qualifications. He is a martial arts genius second only to the emperor, and he almost became the emperor!"
"Hey! People's hearts are unpredictable. Who would have thought that the prince of the imperial court would do such cruel, ruthless and despicable things!"
"The third prince is a low-key person. There are very few rumors about him in Zhongzhou. No one knows him well. Even if he is a very evil person, it is not surprising.
What is most incomprehensible to me is that the majestic Xihuang Divine General is actually a lackey controlled by the Third Prince using evil magic. This is too unbelievable!"
"God General Xihuang has a great reputation. He has always been famous for his strict military management and brilliant military exploits. I used to admire him very much!
Thinking about it now, I really feel regretful and ashamed! I actually worshiped such a despicable and dirty villain!"
"Both the Third Prince and the Western Wilderness Divine General are the top dignitaries in the human race, and they are even related to the face of the Imperial Court.
When something like this happened, the Imperial Court had the courage to make the matter public and announce the edict to the world, which is really admirable!"
"Yes! The fairness and strictness of our emperor's court and the uprightness of the emperor have always been praised by the world! Even if the emperor's son is involved, he will deal with it impartially and will never tolerate it.
As a human being, I am proud of the justice and strictness of the Imperial Court!"
Many people discussed and expressed their opinions on this matter.
Although this incident is a shocking scandal to the human imperial court.
But the Emperor's attitude and handling methods made countless people admire and feel proud.
However, the warriors and common people of the Monster Tribe and Shui Tribe did not think so and raised questions one after another.
"Half a month ago, there were rumors in Zhongzhou City. It is said that Ji Tianxing exposed the third prince's conspiracy and got hold of him, so that his crimes were exposed and his reputation was ruined."
"Yes! I have also heard about this. It is said that Ji Tianxing and the third prince did not get along and had hatred for each other, which led to this result."
"Hahaha... So, if Ji Tianxing hadn't exposed the third prince, the Human Race Imperial Court would have turned a blind eye to the third prince's crimes.
Huh, let me see, the human imperial court may not be as fair and strict as the rumors say."
"Based on the crimes committed by the Third Prince, according to the laws of our Shui Tribe, ten executions are not enough! The verdict of the Human Race Imperial Court is too light, and it is obviously biased in favor of the Third Prince!"
"Well, you can't say that. After all, the third prince is the biological son of the human emperor. How can the emperor be willing to execute him directly?"
"No matter how many innocent people the third prince poisoned, those people are just ants that have nothing to do with the emperor of the human race.
For a supreme and powerful person like the Emperor, there is no absolute good or evil or right or wrong in everything. Everything only depends on means, abilities and results.
Probably in his eyes, the third prince is just inferior in skill and lost to Ji Tianxing, but his crime will not lead to death, right?"
"I heard that there is an old saying in the human race that the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit... The fight between the third prince and Ji Tianxing was a battle between gods and immortals. Whoever loses will have his crimes exposed and become a hateful sinner.
But in fact, among those big shots and powerful men, who is not full of blood and evil?"
The words and discussions of many water tribes, demon tribes and foreign tribes naturally fell into Ji Tianxing's ears.
But he dismissed it and didn't bother to pay attention or defend it.
A strong person must of course have the demeanor and magnanimity of a strong person.
Whether it is right or wrong, it will be judged by future generations.
How can ordinary people know the truth and the whole story?
Those people just stand and talk without pain in their backs and make assumptions based on their own imagination.
He quietly left the crowd and returned to the Imperial Palace.
Not long after he returned to Tianxing Palace, the commander of the guards came to report the news that the Emperor Long Yunxiao was visiting.
So Ji Tianxing hurried to the guest reception hall to meet Long Yunxiao.
