"Your Majesty, there is a message from King Zhenbei!"
The eunuch was sweating profusely and panting as he reported.
The reason for being so panicked.
It was because when this secret letter reached the capital, someone specifically stated that the contents of the letter were of great importance and must be handed over to the emperor as soon as possible.
Therefore, he did not dare to slack off at all. After receiving the secret message, he immediately went to the palace to deliver the message.
Seeing the eunuch rushing into the hall so recklessly, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on Zhao Chun's face.
But when he saw the secret message in his hand, the anger calmed down.
"Send it over."
Zhao Chun asked the King of Zhenbei to lead his army into Beiliang, but he said nothing more except to tell Beiliang how unstable it was.
When an urgent secret message suddenly came out at this time, there must be something important to report.
After receiving the secret message from the eunuch.
Zhao Chun's eyes showed an expectant look, and then he read it carefully.
When he saw Zhao Kai and Han Diao Si heading to Beiliang, intending to assassinate Gu Qingfeng, but they were killed by Gu Qingfeng with his sword, his pupils suddenly shrank and he couldn't help but be stunned!
He naturally understands Zhao Kai, an illegitimate son who has not been recognized by the Liyang royal family so far.
But what puzzled him was.
When did this kid get involved with Han Diao Temple?
Moreover, why did he and Han Diao Si want to take Gu Qingfeng's life?
Who is this Gu Qingfeng? !
Many doubts emerged in his mind, causing him to frown and couldn't help but ask.
"My dear friends, who is this Gu Qingfeng?"
Hear Zhao Chun's question.
The ministers below were stunned for a moment, wondering why His Majesty cared so much about an unknown boy.
But soon, everyone reacted quickly and responded quickly.
"Your Majesty, Gu Qingfeng is the son-in-law that Xu Xiao abandoned!"
They had been fighting secretly with Xu Xiao for many years, and they also had some understanding of Gu Qingfeng, the abandoned son of the Xu family who almost married Xu Weixiong.
It was just that Zhao Chun suddenly asked me this question just now, and I couldn't remember it for a while.
I heard that Gu Qingfeng was the abandoned son abandoned by Xu Xiao.
Zhao Chun was stunned again.
How could an abandoned son kill Han Diao Temple with a sword?
After all, Han Diao Temple was the head of the one hundred thousand eunuchs in the Liyang Dynasty, with a high position and great reputation.
Zhao Chun knew that he had already mastered the Zhixuan realm, but how could he be killed by a boy that Xu Xiao looked down upon? !
This couldn't help but make a strong doubt arise in his heart.
at this time.
Zhang Julu stood up and explained slowly.
"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs all day long and does not know much about external affairs."
"Wei Chen came out of the palace yesterday and heard about Gu Qingfeng's deeds. Although this son is an abandoned son of the Xu family, I don't know what means he used to be promoted from a ninth-level martial artist to a second-level warrior overnight."
"Moreover, the old swordsman Li Chungang, who was once famous all over the world, also took a fancy to his swordsmanship talent and regarded him as his best friend!"
Hear these words.
All the officials were stunned, with looks of shock on their faces, and then they couldn't help but started talking.
"Are you kidding me? Breaking through from the ninth level to the second level overnight? Are you sure this isn't a stupidity that has been hidden for many years and is only now being revealed?"
"Hiss... traveling across seven realms in one night is really unheard of!"
"Prime Minister, please stop making fun of us. If that kid really has such amazing potential, with Xu Xiao's vicious vision, how can we let him leave the Xu family?"
"Yes, compared to crossing seven realms in one night and stepping from the ninth level to the second level, I believe that Xu Xiao will give up his power!"
"Hahaha! Li Chungang has always been a loner and never accepted disciples. He doesn't pay attention to anyone else except the one from Emperor Wu City. How could he recognize that boy as his friend? What's more, if that boy really has such an amazing talent in swordsmanship, Shouldn’t Li Chungang accept him as his disciple?”
“……”
Everyone's faces were filled with disbelief, and they didn't believe that there were such swordsmanship prodigies in this world.
In this regard, Zhang Julu was also a little helpless and didn't know how to refute.
After all, these things have just been introduced to the capital not long ago, and it is difficult to tell whether they are true or false and need to be investigated.
Even he himself may not be able to fully believe these words, let alone others?
Many officials looked at Zhang Julu with a hint of contempt in their eyes. If it weren't for the huge difference in official positions, they would even be the first to mock him in public.
Ridiculous, really ridiculous!
At this time, Zhang Julu also realized that he had not verified the truth and told the public. He couldn't help but bow slightly and planned to apologize to Zhao Chun.
But at this moment.
Zhao Chun said with a dazed expression.
"But that kid... killed Han Shengxuan with one sword!"
As soon as these words came out!
The whole hall was shocked!
Everyone was stunned, their eyes were full of shock, they couldn't believe what they heard!
The next moment, their eyes looked at Zhang Julu in unison, and they felt a violent storm rising in their hearts.
What the prime minister just said... is actually true?
Can anyone really break through from the ninth level to the second level overnight? !
Suddenly, all the courtiers couldn't help but started talking again.
"How... how is it possible? Can an abandoned son of the Xu family kill Han Diao Temple?"
"But isn't he only at the second-level realm? Han Diao Si is a master at the Zhixuan realm!"
"Han Diao Si has already mastered the Zhixuan Realm to a level that no one can match. How can a mere second-level person kill him?"
"Is there a possibility...that boy has also broken through to the Zhixuan realm? Or even...the sea-viewing realm?!"
Hear what the official said.
Everyone was shocked again!
Not to break through from the ninth level to the second level, but to reach the Zhixuan Realm or even the Sea Viewing Realm in one step? !
They just felt their heads were buzzing and they were becoming more and more unbelievable.
Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Zhao Chun waved his hand and asked the eunuch to pass the secret letter around.
After they read the contents of the secret message, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva, their eyes widened and the look of shock on their faces deepened again.
Zhang Julu looked at the contents of the letter with astonishment on his face.
He also didn't expect that the messages from the outside world turned out to be true. There really was a prodigy with such amazing talent in swordsmanship in the world!
At the same time, he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
Although Zhao Kai is indeed not recognized by the Liyang royal family, he is still Zhao Chun's biological flesh and blood after all.
Now that Gu Qingfeng has killed him and let him die in Beiliang, this must be a great opportunity to regain military power from Xu Xiao!
Taking this as an excuse can not only prevent Xu Xiao from being forced to rebel and trigger a war, but also give Zhao Chun a reason to take back his rights!
Think of this.
Zhang Julu didn't hesitate at all, he quickly took a step forward and said with a bow.
"Your Majesty! Wei Chen believes that Zhao Kai has the blood of the Liyang royal family and is your Majesty's biological flesh and blood!"
"Xu Xiao didn't protect him well, but instead let him be assassinated in Beiliang. Some of his military power must be taken back as punishment!"
