Chapter 27: Visitors to the Palace, the King of Wu’s Anger
The King of Wu had a gloomy face.
His expression was particularly grim as he asked, "What does that person from the North mean?"
Seven hundred soldiers marched out of the northern border.
This is no small matter.
especially.
The person coming was from his own Xingqing Prefecture, how could the King of Wu not be afraid?
As the saying goes, how can I allow others to snore beside my bed?
Don't say it's him.
No matter which fiefdom these seven hundred soldiers of the Formation Trap went to, they would make that prince tremble with fear.
"Could it be."
"The one in the North has decided to support the Empress?" When King Wu thought of this, his expression changed again and his face turned gloomy in an instant.
"Do not."
"With that person's tyranny, if he really wanted to support the Empress, he would have announced it long ago."
"It's impossible that there is no news at all."
"But if you don't intend to support us, why do you send the Xianzhen Camp to Xingqing Prefecture? Isn't this just to keep an eye on me for the empress under the pretext of suppressing the bandits?"
The gloomy King Wu muttered, his brows tightly furrowed, and his heart was extremely heavy.
If the King of Zhenbei really speaks out to support the Empress.
Although he was unwilling, he would not continue planning a rebellion and would simply give up.
but now.
The King of Zhenbei did not express his attitude directly, but only sent out the Xianzhen Camp to garrison Xingqing Prefecture.
This ambiguous attitude is the most torturous.
"Your Majesty."
Just as King Wu's face became increasingly ugly.
A report voice.
Another voice came from outside the house: "The Left Censor-in-Chief, the Right Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate, and Li Zhenfushi of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the three adults want to see you."
"Ok?"
When the King of Wu heard this, there was a hint of obscurity in his eyes.
Knowing why these three people came, he immediately said, "This king knows."
Say it.
King Wu looked at the middle-aged man in the room.
His tone was slightly cold: "During this period of time, let those people behave themselves and not cause any trouble."
The person mentioned by the King of Wu.
They are the martial artists he keeps under his command.
It is well known that he is fond of martial arts.
Therefore, leaving some martial arts masters in the mansion is not so conspicuous.
After all, he is a martial arts fanatic.
On the surface, there are only a hundred people.
But secretly.
The number of martial artists recruited by King Wu is far more than this number.
The number is so large that it is enough to shock the world.
"Here."
The middle-aged man heard this.
His face became serious and he responded respectfully.
"Let's go."
As he was speaking, the King of Wu also got dressed.
He strode out of the wing room and said, "Come with me to see what the two censors of the Censorate and the Jinyiwei pacification envoys have come for."
______
Main hall.
The two imperial censors of the Censorate and Li Changqing, the pacification envoy of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, sat upright.
Waiting for the King of Wu to come.
"Master Li."
During the waiting period, Fan Pingchuan, the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Metropolitan Censorate, suddenly asked, "I wonder if your Jinyiwei have found anything in the past two days?"
Upon hearing this, Right Censor-in-Chief Wei Nan also looked over.
Although the two had no good feelings towards the Jinyiwei, they even wanted to avoid them.
But for now, I can’t care about so many things.
Relying solely on the power of the Censorate.
I am afraid it is impossible to get to the bottom of this matter within the time limit set by Your Majesty.
Under the gaze of two people.
Li Changqing, who was wearing a Feiyu suit and had an embroidered spring sword on his waist, frowned and shook his head, saying, "Nothing has been found yet."
"Alas," Fan Pingchuan sighed after hearing this.
He smiled bitterly and said, "There are only eight days left, and I don't know if I can find out anything."
Even the Jinyiwei couldn't find any clues.
Not to mention the Censorate.
And it said eight days.
In fact, they have less time to investigate the case.
After all, once the truth is discovered, it will take at least two days to pass the news back to the court.
In other words.
They only have six days left.
"I just hope King Wu can have some clues." Wei Nan said with some disappointment at this moment.
talking.
He gritted his teeth and cursed again: "You damned thieves, don't let me find you, or I will peel off your skin."
Why do you have to steal the disaster relief grain from the imperial court for no reason?
Just rob it.
They also killed all the 1,500 soldiers who were escorting the relief grain.
It’s okay if you don’t want to live.
As a result, his entire clan is now in danger.
"Haha."
Just as Wei Nan finished speaking.
A full-throated laugh came from outside the hall: "My three lords, I've been waiting for a long time."
The voice just fell.
The burly King Wu strode in, smiling, and bowed to the three people.
"Don't dare."
Seeing this, the three of them quickly stood up.
He returned the greeting respectfully: "Greetings, King Wu."
"It doesn't have to be this way."
King Wu waved his hand and looked at the two censors of the Censorate.
He said familiarly, "It's been many years since we last met. You two adults still look as elegant as ever."
"Where."
Upon hearing this, Fan Pingchuan bowed again and said, "I am old now and can't even walk properly. I am not the same as I used to be. But you, Your Majesty, walk like a dragon and a tiger, with vigorous blood and vitality. You are truly the same as before, and have not changed at all."
"Haha, Lord Fan is still so good at talking." Fan Pingchuan's compliment made the King of Wu smile even more, and it was obvious that he enjoyed it very much.
after all.
No one doesn't like compliments, and the King of Wu is no exception.
After exchanging pleasantries with the two of them.
The King of Wu then looked at Li Changqing, the governor of the Jinyiwei, who was wearing a Feiyu suit, and said in a cold tone, "This person must be the governor of the Jinyiwei, Mr. Li, right?"
"sit down."
Without waiting for Li Changqing to speak.
The King of Wu snorted coldly, sat on the main seat, and his cold expression disappeared.
He smiled and looked at the two people from the Censorate and said, "My lords, please."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Two people watched the whole scene.
He frowned slightly, bowed, and then sat down.
And Li Changqing faced this attitude towards King Wu.
His eyes narrowed slightly, but he was not angry. Instead, he sat down by himself.
In this regard.
The King of Wu glanced at him and then looked away.
He looked at Fan Pingchuan and the other two and asked, "I wonder if you two adults are here today because the imperial court's disaster relief grain was robbed two days ago?"
"Yes."
Fan Pingchuan nodded.
His eyes were solemn as he said in a deep voice, "After this incident, His Majesty was extremely furious and gave us ten days to get to the bottom of this matter at any cost."
"We came here in a hurry and had no idea what to do."
"Plus, the heavy snow has covered all the traces, and we have not been able to find any effective clues. That is why I came to see you, Your Highness, and I want to ask you if you know anything."
After Fan Pingchuan finished speaking.
A hint of anger also appeared in the eyes of King Wu.
He said angrily, "These damned thieves are so bold that they even dared to steal the relief grain from the imperial court. They are really hateful. Because of these thieves, I don't know how many people have starved to death or frozen to death in Xingqing Prefecture in the past two days."
"You two adults, don't worry."
"As long as we can catch these thieves, I will tell you everything you ask."
