Young White Horse: The Poison Sword Master of the Wen Family, Shocking the Apocalypse
Chapter 97 Part 1: Awakening the Dreamer
Looking at Zhuosen's departing back, Xiao Ruofeng felt a little worried.
Even though Wen Yanzhao was already a top master who had reached the level of Half-Step Divine Wandering, doing this seemed to show a disrespect for the Beili court.
And since I have sworn brotherhood with him, I will definitely be blamed by my father in the future.
Wen Yanzhao seemed to see through his state of mind. He sat back at the stone table and poured two cups of tea for Xiao Ruofeng and Lei Mengsha:
"Brother, are you worried that His Majesty will be angry with me because of this?"
Xiao Ruofeng hesitated to speak, Wen Yanzhao said in a relaxed tone:
"You two just saw it. Zhuo Sen is so ignorant of his own limitations that he's trying to intimidate me... And this must be instigated by someone behind him."
"I don't need to tell you who's behind me. I'm sure you already know him. He's Zhuo Qing, the head of the five great supervisors of the dynasty."
Xiao Ruofeng nodded and took the teacup:
"Zhuoqing has followed his father since he was young and is deeply favored by him. Now that you treat his subordinates like this, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction."
"If he goes to the emperor and makes some slanderous remarks, it won't do any good to you or me."
At this time, Lei Mengsha suddenly smiled and said:
"If the current emperor has a grudge against his most beloved prince because of this slanderous statement, I think you, Old Seven, should also consider who will take over the throne in the future..."
Before Lei Mengsha could finish his words, Xiao Ruofeng's face suddenly turned stern and his voice became extremely serious.
"Second Brother, stop talking nonsense! Just pretend I didn't hear anything like that and never say it again!"
"The change of imperial power is not something you should interfere with..."
Wen Yanzhao raised his hand and stopped Xiao Ruofeng from saying anything else with a serious look:
"I think what Brother Lei said is absolutely right! Brother, are you still unclear about Zhuoqing's thoughts?"
"He is on the side of the Green King. Besides targeting me, isn't this also aimed at you?"
"Among all the princes now, who is the most virtuous? Who is the most despicable? Isn't this obvious?"
Xiao Ruofeng's expression grew increasingly serious, but he still listened quietly to Wen Yanzhao's words.
Wen Yanzhao glanced at Lei Mengsha, who also had a worried look on his face, and continued:
"Since you acknowledge me as your brother, I won't hide it... As the saying goes, people in the martial arts world are not free to do what they want. You, Xiao Ruofeng, were born in an imperial family, so you are even more helpless!"
"Don't dream of getting away unscathed. If that weak-willed wretch ascends to the throne, not only will everyone around you be purged, but I don't think you'll be able to stay as the King of Langya for long!"
"I, Wen Yanzhao, am fearless. Looking around the world, there are no more than three people who can kill me. If it really comes to a fight to the death, I don't mind taking a city or a country with me!"
"What I said today was very offensive. Before I leave, I still want to advise you, brother. You should not only consider yourself... but also make plans for the people around you, such as Lei Mengsha who is sitting in front of you now!"
Before Xiao Ruofeng could speak, Wen Yanzhao flew away and disappeared without a trace.
Wen Yanzhao's words just now were like a knife or a sword, piercing Xiao Ruofeng's heart.
It's not that he had never thought about the court disputes and the fight for the throne among the princes, but he had been avoiding them because his heart was set on the world of martial arts!
Emperor Tai'an conferred on him the title of Prince of Langya and granted him a royal palace, but the fact that he pretended to be noble and refused to accept this was enough to show that Xiao Ruofeng was too idealistic!
An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure, not to mention that he is the most outstanding prince in the Beili royal family!
"Crack!"
The teacup in Xiao Ruofeng's hand was crushed by him!
Lei Mengsha remained silent, staring at Xiao Ruofeng in front of him whose expression gradually became firm.
"Second Senior Brother, what Yan Zhao said just now made me sober up a lot!"
"Please believe me, I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me. This kind of thing will never happen to me, Xiao Ruofeng!"
……
TTianqi Imperial Palace, Tai'an Hall.
"Your Majesty, Prince Qing is waiting outside the palace." Zhuoqing bowed to Xiao Chongjing who was pacing in the palace.
"Let him in."
Xiao Chongjing had a blank expression on his face, twirling a ring on his finger with one hand.
"My son, please see your father!"
As soon as Prince Qing entered the hall, he knelt down in front of Xiao Chongjing with a very humble tone.
"Hmph...Come and tell me what happened to Ye Dingzhi who suddenly appeared in the school?"
Xiao Chongjing was intimidating without being angry and pressed the issue.
"Father...Father, I swear to heaven that I handled the case of Ye Yu strictly and never let anyone from the Ye family go!"
"At that time, Grand Eunuch Zhuoqing and I, your son, detained and exiled Ye Yu and his entire family. Grand Eunuch Zhuoqing read out the imperial edict at that time... Did you tell your father that this was the case?"
King Qing Xiao Xie knelt on the ground and trembled, looking at Zhuoqing with pleading eyes.
Zhuoqing was about to speak, but Emperor Tai'an Xiao Chongjing raised his hand to stop him:
"You don't need to defend him. Since he said that he would never let anyone from the Ye family go, did this Ye Dingzhi fall from the sky?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Wang fell to the ground:
"Father, this Ye Dingzhi must have been saved by that Southern Art master, Yu Shengmo. Bai Xiaotang has already investigated Ye Dingzhi's background!"
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and held it in his hand:
"Father, please look, this is the information that I have found out from many sources. Back then, Ye Yun was saved by the Southern Sword Immortal Yu Shengmo!"
"He came back to Tianqi just to seek revenge on me. He wants to kill me! Father!"
Xiao Chongjing raised his eyelids, glanced at the note in Qing Wang's hand, and then signaled to Zhuoqing.
Zhuoqing hurriedly took the note from Qing Wang's hand and presented it to Xiao Chongjing.
"These martial artists have no regard for the law and dare to do such things that are against the imperial court..."
Xiao Chongjing glanced at the contents on the note and spoke in a stern voice.
Seeing that Xiao Chongjing had already pointed the finger at someone else, Qing Wang felt relieved. He turned his eyes and said in a trembling voice:
"Father, it doesn't matter if I die under Ye Ding's sword. I'm just afraid that he will do something bad to you, Father!"
"Please do not hesitate any longer. As long as you give the order, I will do my best to hunt down Ye Dingzhi and put an end to this disaster!"
Xiao Chongjing pondered, walked to the side of Qing Wang without looking at him, and after a long while, he said in a low voice:
"Early tomorrow morning, you will personally lead people to Jixia Academy to arrest Ye Dingzhi!"
Zhuosen and Qing Wang felt relieved at the same time when they heard the voice. Qing Wang Xiao Xie lowered his head. What Xiao Chongjing didn't see was that the corner of his son's mouth showed a barely perceptible smile.
