The emperor's master's words made the emperor frown and show a solemn look in his eyes.
"Ji Tianxing? What trouble did he cause?"
The emperor was thinking to himself, hadn't he already sent someone to keep an eye on Ji Tianxing? Why did he still get into trouble?
The emperor's master threw the unconscious Qin Zheng on the ground and explained to the emperor: "Emperor, this is what happened.
Qin Zheng had an incompetent son named Qin Feng, who was trying to tease Lan Huixin, who was unsuccessful, but Ji Tianxing happened to catch him.
Ji Tianxing deposed Qin Feng's descendants, which naturally provoked Qin Zheng to retaliate and was assassinated by five Liantian city ministers..."
The emperor's master told the origin and process of the incident exactly.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the emperor's master finished explaining, took out the meteorite iron box, and placed the box full of letters and files in front of the emperor.
The emperor only scanned it with his soul and quickly read the contents of the letter and the file.
The various criminal evidence and records in it implicated many forces and powerful people, as well as some people in the Imperial Court.
The emperor suddenly frowned and began to think with a solemn expression.
The Imperial Master was not in a hurry and waited patiently.
After about ten breaths, the emperor sighed in a low voice.
"Ji Tianxing, this kid, is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!
The majestic city lord of Liantian City was overthrown by him so simply and crudely.
Speaking of which, not only did he have no fault in this matter, he also contributed to the imperial court.
But I don’t know if this was his own idea, or was Yun Xiao secretly instructing him to do it?”
The emperor's master shook his head and said calmly: "I have already asked the emperor, and he only knew about this matter."
A flash of regret flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he sighed softly: "Ji Tianxing and Yun Xiao are both wise, courageous, and extremely talented young men.
If Yun Xiao can get help from Ji Tianxing, I can rest assured, but it's a pity..."
The emperor's master smiled slightly, stroking his white beard, and said: "Don't be anxious about this matter, just let it take its course.
After what happened last night, I found that there seemed to be some kind of tacit understanding between the emperor and Ji Tianxing, and they had established trust in each other.
I believe that the situation that the emperor is looking forward to will appear soon."
The emperor nodded slightly and said, "I hope so."
The emperor glanced at the unconscious Qin Zheng and asked the emperor: "Emperor, what happened last night must have spread, and there must be a commotion in Liantian City at this moment.
You must make a decision on this matter and give a result, otherwise rumors will spread and Liantian City will fall into chaos."
The emperor nodded and said in a solemn tone: "Publish the emperor's decree and tell the people of Liantian City that the city lord Qin Zheng is corrupt, perverts the law, forms cliques for personal gain, and deliberately murders the emperor of our clan.
The imperial court has now found out Qin Zheng’s crime, and the evidence is conclusive, and he will be beheaded in public..."
As the emperor announced the result in a low tone, the emperor's master had already carved the emperor's edict into a piece of golden spiritual jade with the power of his soul.
In addition to Qin Zheng, the lord of Liantian City, there were also several extremely evil gangs and families who were also ordered to be wiped out by the emperor.
As a result, just as the emperor's master said, the emperor treated this matter carefully, was fair and strict, and would never tolerate adultery.
After a while, when the emperor finished speaking, the emperor's master had also drafted an edict.
The Imperial Master was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Emperor, all the forces and families involved in this matter in Liantian City must receive the punishment they deserve.
What about the people in the Imperial Court? Do you want to announce the news? How do you plan to deal with it?"
The emperor frowned and said in a low tone: "The three commanders and generals involved in the incident must be removed from their posts, investigated, and severely punished.
The Imperial Court is the holy land of our clan, and it is by no means a place for filth and evil. How can I tolerate these moths?
As for the two princes...the third prince has been away leading the army all year round, so this time he was punished by facing the wall for several months.
The fourth child has been handling internal affairs in the imperial court, so he was punished to guard the border and train on the battlefield of Donglin for half a year."
The emperor's master nodded slightly and agreed: "That's fine, a small punishment but a big warning. I believe the two princes will understand the emperor's intention.
After the three commanders and generals were removed from their posts, what should be done with the vacant positions?"
The emperor looked calmly and said: "Take this opportunity and leave it to Yunxiao, he has been thinking about those positions for a long time.
He can arrange for his own cronies, but Imperial Master, you have to check carefully to make sure there are no problems before agreeing."
"As you command!"
The emperor's master bowed his hands in a bow, and then left the study with the imperial edict of the spirit jade in hand to convey the emperor's will.
…
When Ji Tianxing returned to Liantian City, it was the rising sun.
As a new day arrives, the city becomes lively and noisy.
However, the atmosphere in the city is a bit weird and depressing.
Many warriors and common people heard about the drastic changes that took place in the city lord's mansion last night, and they all discussed with worry.
All the forces in the city, large and small, also learned the information, including the news that the city lord's palace was almost destroyed and the city lord Qin Zheng was missing.
Many forces have a premonition that Liantian City will usher in a period of turmoil and drastic changes.
They are all worried about this. They don't know how far the situation will develop, so they can only wait and see.
As soon as Ji Tianxing returned to Yunlan Villa, he saw that the guards in the courtyard all had solemn expressions and seemed to be in a hurry.
The captain of the guard guarding the gate of the other courtyard originally had a solemn look on his face, with a hint of worry in his brows.
After seeing him, the captain of the guard was stunned for a moment, and suddenly showed an expression of relief.
"Mr. Ji, you are finally back!"
Ji Tianxing frowned and asked with a majestic tone: "What's wrong? What happened?"
The captain of the guard hurriedly came to greet him, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ji, the eldest lady has received the news and knows what happened last night.
The eldest lady has sent out guards from the mansion to look for you everywhere.
Now that you are back safely, you should go see the eldest lady first, so as not to worry her about you..."
When Ji Tianxing heard that Yun Yao was worried about him, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. He nodded and said, "Yes, I understand."
After crossing the gate and entering the house, he rushed to the small courtyard where Yunyao lived.
After a while, he entered Yunyao's residence and saw Yunyao sitting in the living room, silently waiting for news, with a worried look on her eyebrows.
"Yao Yao, I'm back."
He stepped into the living room, showed a smile, and said hello to Yunyao.
Yun Yao immediately looked up at him and saw that he had returned safe and sound. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then the big stone in her heart fell.
"Tian Xing, just be fine!"
Ji Tianxing smiled and nodded, walked to her and sat down.
Yun Yao looked at him solemnly and asked: "Tian Xing, did you enter the city lord's mansion alone last night and capture the city lord Qin Zheng?"
"Yes." Ji Tianxing nodded and admitted, and asked: "Yao Yao, how do you know so clearly?"
Yunyao said in a solemn tone: "Not only do I know the news, I'm afraid everyone in the city also knows it.
You went on a killing spree in the city lord's palace, and many people witnessed it with their own eyes, and the news has already spread."
