Chapter 396: Earth-shattering event
Yang Zhenqing shook his head, there is no need to argue about this matter, and if you argue again, it will continue to lose face, not to mention, Yang Zhenqing knows that this matter is the result of his grandson Yang Ke's operation behind his back, and he can only say that his grandson is not well considered, at least, on the side of the Thirteen Witch Ancestors, Yang Ke is not capable of controlling it.
The officials at the court meeting had different hearts at the moment, of course, most of them admired Wang Shenling's old scheming, and they actually buried such a move, and they deliberately let Yang Zhenqing go down before, and then used this to hit the other party.
Of course, some people think that Wang Shenling is a stupid move, and if he hits Yang Zhenqing, won't it make the other party hold a grudge, which is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the Yang family, could it be that from today onwards, the forces in this officialdom will be reshuffled?
Because it may involve something deeper, as well as an internal power struggle, no one said anything about this matter, even Xiao Yu, and he didn't say anything more.
However, he is happy to see this kind of scene, at least he can be sure that Wang Shenling and the Yang family have broken up.
Wang Shenling, who won a big victory here, was not in a calm mood.
chose to stand on the opposite side of the Yang family, he also thought about it, before Yang Zhenqing disregarded the situation, and went directly to the door to regret the marriage, this is an inducement, in addition, this is not all, he and Yang Zhenqing's ideas have long been in conflict in recent years, as the so-called Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, although the Yang family is powerful and is a big tree, but Wang Shenling has long had the idea of breaking away, and this time it just happened to take this opportunity to attack.
In addition, Wang Shenling was also very satisfied with his grandson Queen Yan Chan, last night Wang Yan Chan suddenly found him and said a bunch of things, including the matter of He Chu Xian, as well as helping to give advice, so that before the court meeting, he must go to the Thirteen Witch Ancestors to tell him about this matter, this is to seize the opportunity.
In this way, he can report the shame of being humiliated by the Yang family at the court meeting.
Wang Shenling himself is a Dao Immortal, a second-grade immortal official, and a member of the Shoufu Pavilion, so he fell out with the Yang family, not to mention, taking this opportunity, he can be regarded as having a basis for cooperation with Xiao Yu and his family, and in the future, he will not be alone in the court or even in the Shoufu.
This time, his grandson Queen Yan Chan was actually able to give him advice, which was to make Wang Shenling feel very relieved, and secretly said that this is his granddaughter, with strategy and calculation, although he somehow fell in love with Chu Xian, but Chu Xian can be said that in addition to his background, there is nothing bad about it, and even the children of the official family in the entire Jingzhou, who can compare to that Chu Xian?
Wang Shenling is a very open person, he doesn't have too many views, and as long as his baby granddaughter likes it, then he will not object, and he will do his best to escort Chu Xian's career.
"Let's confirm, if the Thirteen Witch Ancestors really have no opinion, then this matter will be stopped. Yang Zhenqing said coldly at this moment, there is no need to insist on this matter, it is better to turn over this article as soon as possible.
Naturally, there were officials from the Ministry of Rites who ran to confirm this matter, and the court meeting continued, Cui Huanzhi breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and secretly said that Chu Xian had escaped this 'catastrophe', just looking at Chu Xian's nervous appearance before, he knew that the so-called daughter of the prince of the Wu clan must be the 'best' in the world.
Smiling secretly, Cui Huanzhi relaxed.
A few more things were discussed at the court meeting, and seeing that the court meeting was about to end, at this time, the officials of the Ministry of Rites who had gone to confirm the news of the Thirteen Witch Ancestors were running back in a panic at the moment.
Seeing this scene, the congregation officials were stunned.
The official's face changed, and at this moment he shouted: "Out, something is wrong!"
......
Chu Xian sat in the hall of the Criminal Division, a little absent-minded.
The righteous qi pen rotated and jumped between Chu Xian's fingers, and the halo surged, and the file on the table, Chu Xian had not put down the pen for a long time, not because he didn't want to, but because he was wandering outside the world and thinking about other things.
"I don't know what happened at the court. Chu Xian muttered to himself, sometimes, although Chu Xian forced himself not to think about it, he still occasionally flashed the terrifying figure like a tiger's back yesterday, to be honest, every time Chu Xian thought about it, he would feel a chill.
That witch woman whose male aura far surpassed Chu San, if she really married her, then it would be meaningless to live.
"No, why don't you think about it again, I, Chu Xian, slaying demons and killing ghosts, I haven't encountered anything, I haven't seen any danger, how can I be frightened by such a trivial matter. Chu Xian cheered himself up.
Below, Wu Juzheng looked at Chu Xian, who was very different from usual, but he understood what was going on.
Yesterday's incident, Liu Shiyuan and they had already told him, I heard that Lord Chu was taken by the daughter of a witch prince, and the daughter of the prince looked like a bear into a spirit, so anyone would be afraid.
"Hey, Lord Chu is really hard, sometimes it's a mistake to be young and promising. Wu Juzheng couldn't help, so he could only sigh secretly and sympathize.
As for Liu Shiyuan, they didn't dare to come to see Chu Xian, for fear of evoking some kind of terrifying memories of Lord Chu, and then making them angry.
At this moment, a strong wind flashed in the air, Chu Xian noticed it for the first time, and at the moment he stepped out of the air, suspended in the air, only to see that there were many masters coming and going in a hurry over Jingzhou, which were all Jingzhou elites, in addition, Chu Xian also found that a large number of soldiers entered Jingzhou, obviously something was wrong.
At this time, a streamer flew in, but it was a monk wearing iron armor, this monk belonged to the Jingzhou Flying Armor Army, and he was the elite who guarded Jingzhou and dealt with emergencies.
This flying armor army stepped forward and said directly: "I have been ordered by the general, the land of Jingzhou is strictly controlled, and no one is allowed to control the sky, this lord, go down quickly." ”
Chu Xian knew that the general was Qin Yuanmou, the general of the golden armor.
That is the Immortal Venerable of the Shoufu Pavilion, the first martial saint, obviously, Qin Yuanmou issued this kind of order, which can only mean one thing, in the land of Jingzhou, something big happened.
So Chu Xian didn't ask much, and fell quickly.
In the Criminal Division, some people also noticed the problem and began to ask, Chu Xian ordered that everyone should perform their duties, and they were not allowed to act rashly, let alone discuss arbitrarily.
Everyone wanted to know what was going on, after all, the streets outside were under martial law, and there were soldiers everywhere, with armor and bright swords, and the spears that were brushed together were even more chilling.
Compared with the people who didn't know what was going on, as an official of the Holy Dynasty, especially a Zheng Liupin like Chu Xian, the chief magistrate of the Criminal Division, the source of the news was obviously faster and more comprehensive.
Soon, Chu Xian and Kong Qian were called away by the solemn face of the torture priest, and behind the three of them were four divine arresters, as well as more than twenty murderous black sword guards.
Shirou didn't say anything, but from his expression, it could be seen that something big was wrong, and it was a big thing.
Soon, Chu Xian and Kong Qian met the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
This is the boss of the entire Criminal Department, a dignified immortal official, who also has a solemn expression at this moment, and after seeing Chu Xian and Kong Qian, he said directly: "You two are waiting for orders in the Criminal Department." ”
With that, he walked away.
Everyone was in a hurry and looked serious, but the vast majority of people didn't know what was going on, or said that the atmosphere was contagious, anyway, now, everyone was cautious.
Chu Xian glanced at Kong Qian and asked in a low voice, Kong Qian shook his head: "I don't know anything, it's okay, just wait, see what orders come down from above." ”
Chu Xian nodded.
So the two of them waited, and waited for more than an hour, and then Shi Langzhong hurriedly came over, and asked the two to leave immediately and follow him.
Chu Xian and Shi Langzhong also have a good relationship on weekdays, so he asked in a whisper what was going on, Shi Langzhong looked around, and only said one sentence, which made Chu Xian and Kong Qian both surprised and dumbfounded.
Shi Langzhong said, the Thirteen Witch Ancestors, dead.
This news is indeed unbelievable, first of all, the thirteen Wu ancestors, that is the top master of the Wu clan, the longevity is calculated in thousands of years, it is said that some Wu ancestors have existed for thousands of years, and they are characters in the same period as the Holy Ancestor of Taizong.
Even if the Thirteen Witch Ancestors were new Witch Ancestors, they were not ordinary people, they were Dao Immortal level, and they were beyond the existence of ordinary Dao Immortals. What's more, the Thirteen Witch Ancestors claimed to be the one with the highest qualifications and potential among the Witch Ancestors, how could they die?
The word death should not be added to this kind of character.
"But he is dead, and he died very completely, as we all know, Wu Zu and Dao Immortal, are the same as the existence of body and soul, there is no soul, dead, that is silence, and there is nothing left. After Shi Langzhong finished speaking, he saw that there was no one left and right, so he said in a smaller voice: "But the problem is that he will die sooner rather than later, but he will not die sooner or later, and he will die in the land of our Tiantang Holy Dynasty in Jingzhou, this will be a big problem, if it is not handled well, the Wu clan and we are afraid that we will not die." ”
Chu Xian and Kong Qian both nodded again and again.
This matter is indeed too big, from another point of view, if an immortal official of the Holy Dynasty at the level of the First Auxiliary Pavilion sends an envoy to the Wu Clan, and dies there, I am afraid that the Holy Dynasty will not give up.
No wonder, the land of Jingzhou will be full of soldiers all at once, presumably not only in Jingzhou, but also in Wuzhou, which is adjacent to the Wu clan.
"Remember, this matter is still confidential, and you can't say it, the officials below the fifth rank of the Holy Dynasty don't know what happened at all, and this matter must be kept absolutely secret. Shi Langzhong said again, and Kong Qian and Chu Xian both nodded hurriedly.
The three of them went all the way to the palace where the Thirteen Wuzu and others lived, which was already heavily guarded, Shi Langzhong asked Chu Xian and Kong Qian to wait on the side, obviously, the level of the two was not enough, and when they encountered this kind of thing, they had no qualifications to meddle at all, so they could only listen to orders.
But Shirou was able to bring the two of them here, and also said some questions.
The sudden death of the Thirteen Witch Ancestors must have an inside story, and according to the laws of the Holy Dynasty, the major murder cases that occurred in the Holy Dynasty are all under the jurisdiction of the Criminal Department, and the Criminal Department is the department that supervises and solves major cases, so it is understandable that Chu Xian and Kong Qian are called.
Here, keep waiting.
