Chapter 179 God’s Eyes Yama (Part )!
"Is Hong Lie crazy?"

Jiang Linfeng and others frowned when they received the news, and began to gather people for discussion before going to court.

The emperor is away now, but the officials' daily work cannot be interrupted, and the small court meetings every two days are also held continuously. When the time comes, officials above the third rank will gather for a meeting.

"What do you think, Lord Jiang?"

Everyone from the Huo family and the Jin family looked at Jiang Linfeng. Upon hearing this, Jiang Linfeng looked towards the Lu family in the distance.

Because of that incident, the Shen family seems to have no intention of easing their alliance with the Jiang family. During court meetings, the Shen family members stayed away from their side. Now that Hong Lie has gone crazy and affected the interests of the Lu family, should they help the Lu family hold Hong Lie accountable, or take the opportunity to protect Hong Lie?
The Lu family is very dishonest and actually secretly won over the Tianyi clan. Jiang Linfeng realized a long time ago that the head of the Lu family was not a mediocre person. Now at this chaotic moment, they have won over the Tianyi clan. Is they secretly preparing for the Qi family to help the prince ascend to the throne in the future?
Li Qingtian said that he did not have much time left. If that was true, he would have won over the world's largest sect to gain the Grandmaster seat, and then supported the Crown Prince to succeed. Now that the Jiang family and the Shen family have suffered heavy losses, the balance might really be broken.

For a moment, Jiang Linfeng regretted that he had pushed the Shen family too hard that day.

However, the Shen family really ignored the overall situation. For the sake of Shen Yuan, they fell out at that time, and even now they have shown no signs of easing up. Are they really planning to break up?
"Let's see what other families say first." Jiang Linfeng took a breath.

I don't know why, but I always feel that something big is going to happen around me recently, but I can't find a way in. The Qi family is trying to support the prince, but although the old man in the Qi family is the prince's teacher, he is already old. How many years can he occupy the position of Minister of Rites? I have received news that the remaining three families are planning to let the Bai family enter the capital.

The Wei and Gong families have been behaving unusually low-key. They have been listening to him in everything recently. He even had no objection to some transfers of officials from the Ministry of War, which made him feel unusual.

Li Qingtian suddenly appeared in the capital, saying that he had received an imperial order, but what did His Majesty want to plan by calling this big shot who had been suppressed for a hundred years back to the capital? And the emperor was calculated to disappear before Li Qingtian entered the country. What force was he playing a game with?
Shen Yuan had his eyes gouged out, there must be a dark conspiracy behind this, and the woman who helped the Shen family that day was also very unusual.

All these events and scenes gave him a feeling that a storm was about to come, but he could not find any clues. He felt that if this continued, something bad would happen to the Jiang family.

"Everyone!"

The head of the Lu family, along with several Lu family academic officials, arrived outside the Suzaku Gate and stopped many officials who were attending the court. He said bitterly, "Hong Lie's behavior yesterday was no different from treason. In the absence of His Majesty, he abused his power and detained the world's top sect. This is simply not taking the law seriously. Now the competition is going on, and the elders of the major sects are in the capital. If Hong Lie used any means to deal with the Tianyi Sect and caused panic among the people, what would be the consequences if the major Jianghu sects caused trouble in the capital? You should all know!"

Many officials nodded their heads upon hearing this, while several major families looked at them with strange eyes. Whose intention was it that Hong Lie went crazy at this time?
In the past, it could be said that Tianyi Sect was manipulating behind the scenes, but now it is Tianyi Sect that is being directly targeted. Is there anyone else behind Hong Lie, a lone minister, besides His Majesty?

"What did Minister Jiang say?" Lord Lu asked Jiang Linfeng first.

Jiang Linfeng was stunned. The other party actually asked him instead of asking the Qi family?

Old Qi was also obviously stunned, and the look he gave Lu Chengfeng suddenly became meaningful.

"No matter what, Hong Lie must be explained for this action." Jiang Linfeng nodded and said, "But he has the imperial guards at his disposal. To be on the safe side, it would be best to ask His Royal Highness Prince Jin to come forward. What do you think?"

A group of ministers nodded one after another. Now that His Majesty is not here, the imperial guards listen to Hong Lie. It is impossible for a group of civil officials to question a group of men with knives. It would be most appropriate for the Prince of Jin to lead the five military commanders to hold them accountable.

"The competition has already started this morning, and the news of the Tianyi Sect's arrest will probably spread soon. In order to prevent the situation from escalating, I ask all my colleagues to join me in asking His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin for instructions now."

Jiang Linfeng looked at the other party and finally nodded.

Minister Qi said quietly, "I have many important matters to attend to, so I won't go."

When the other families heard Minister Qi say this, their eyes also became strange.

Minister Qi has been almost always guarding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince these days. It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is living in the Qi Mansion. It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has really reached some agreement with the Qi family. The Minister of Public Administration Zhou Zhen and the Minister of Works Wang Xuchen have also said that they have important matters to attend to and cannot leave.

Suddenly, the situation became interesting to Jiang Linfeng.

Wang Xuchen is the Minister of Works. The situation in the capital is chaotic now and he is in charge of the capital's overall situation. It is understandable that he can't leave because of his heavy responsibilities, but what the hell does Zhou Zhen, the governor, have to do?
I heard that before, the Lu family led the other two families to drive the Qi family back to Xijing and replace them with the Bai family. During that period, they must have exchanged many interests, such as how much profit the Bai family gave up to the other three families after going to Beijing, and now that old man Qi Changbai is betting on the prince, the other two families seem to have been won over by the Qi family again, and the weak Lu family has been excluded.

"Where is Lord Jiang Minister?" The face of the head of the Lu family was obviously not very good, and then he looked at Jiang Linfeng with a pleading look.

Jiang Linfeng saw it all, but he quickly started to think. The Shen family was now in a state of complete disarray, and the Shen family was too powerful, so he was also afraid of them. On the contrary, the Lu family might be a good partner.

"There are quite a few chores, but Hong Lie's behavior is too outrageous and must be rectified. Then let the Duke and I go and do it."

"Thank you very much, Lord Jiang." The head of the Lu family immediately breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Linfeng with great gratitude.

Seeing this, Jiang Linfeng thought more about his previous idea.

The Lu family is quite powerful. Although there are few young men in this generation who have entered the six ministries, there are many academic officials outside. However, they seem to have been squeezed out by the emperor and are concentrated in the southwest. If they cooperate, he can use the power of the Ministry of Personnel to mobilize the Lu family and benefit from it. Among the six ministries, the new children of the Jiang family will grab the vacancies left by the Qi family.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and Jiang Linfeng's expression softened a lot.

Just like that, the two groups parted ways. Minister Qi looked at the backs of the Lu family as they left with a gloomy expression.

"Mr. Qi, it seems that the Lu family has ulterior motives." Zhou Zhen said lightly behind Mr. Qi.

"Hmph, you don't have much ability, but you have a big heart. You even want to win over Tianyi Sect. What do you want to do?" Old Qi sneered, "What's the situation with the great master of Tianyi Sect?"

"Don't worry, Elder Qi." Wang Xuchen said quietly, "The capital's great battle formation has been fully activated. The evil spirit in the Tianyi Sect's body has not been removed. Once he approaches the capital, I will be able to sense it immediately."

Old Qi nodded. The grandmaster was also under control. After all, the grandmaster's blood was too strong. Every once in a while, he would be infected with a parasitic evil spirit, which also needed to be removed by aristocratic family sorcerers. Master Yi was able to sneak into the capital because there was someone who could remove the evil spirit from his body, but the Tianyi Sect didn't have that person.

"Is it possible for the Lu family to remove the evil spirit from the Tianyi Sect member?" Zhou Zhen suddenly thought of something: "After all, the young and strong men of the Lu family are all serving in other places."

"The Lu family's Yin God has never left the capital." Wang Xuchen shook his head: "Without the help of the Yin God, even a Nine-Minister-level sorcerer would not be able to remove the evil spirit from the master."

Hearing this, Elder Qi was completely relieved: "Be alert. Those people will definitely cause chaos before the crown prince ascends the throne. When that happens, we will have to rely on you."

As Mr. Qi spoke, he looked at Wang Xuchen.

"Don't worry, Mr. Qi." Wang Xuchen said seriously: "The things made by the Ministry of Industry this time can already solve the threat of the Grandmaster, even the number one Grandmaster in the world!"
-
"People from the North District have come to urge them to come."

Hong Lie was in the military tent, and the deputy general who received the news seemed a little anxious.

The status of Tianyi Sect is extremely high. If Tianyi Sect is absent from the National Competition, it will definitely attract the attention of the martial arts world. If this continues, the commander-in-chief may not be able to withstand this wave.

Hong Lie was also covered in cold sweat at this time, and he didn't even dare to look at the cold eyes of the princess beside him.

He admitted that he trusted Zhang Rui too much, but there was nothing he could do. When his mentor was in trouble, he couldn't just stand by and watch. He could only hope that Zhang Rui could solve the problem at the critical moment.
-
"Remember me?"

In another military tent, Qing Yunzi was trapped by black iron, while Zhang Rui stood beside him holding a knife bigger than a man.

The important figures of Tianyi Sect were imprisoned separately to prevent them from realizing that they were targeting Qingyunzi. Whether the targeting could be successful depended on this wave.

"It's you."

At this time, Qing Yunzi opened his eyes, and his pupils turned green like a cat's eye, looking extremely creepy even in broad daylight.

really
Zhang Rui took a breath, Qing Yunzi was no longer Qing Yunzi.

"Lord Baimu Shenjun. Is that the right way to address him?" Zhang Rui said with a smile, "Or maybe Lord Shenmu Yanluo?"
