Who among the gangsters wants to fall in love?

Chapter 170: No sleep, no evidence

"When can I see the prince?"

"It's time to call you Your Majesty..."

"According to the procedure, after the coronation ceremony, His Majesty will come to the city wall for a walk and then have lunch?"

"I don't know."

"I wonder what delicious food will be for lunch..."

The snow was getting heavier. In front of the Xuanwu Gate in Dali, people were bustling around and talking non-stop, until a young man in a blue shirt drove a carriage here. The front of the gate suddenly became quiet. He turned his head and looked at him, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Why is Zhao Wumian here?
The man who once attempted to assassinate the queen is now running to the gate of the palace...isn't this a slap in the face of the imperial guards and those masters of the palace?
The commander of the imperial guards in front of Xuanwu Gate was slightly stunned when he saw Zhao Wumian, then he immediately put his hand on his sword with a murderous look on his face... Zhao Wumian had escaped from the encirclement of their imperial guards. If they didn't catch him, the face of their imperial guards would be completely shattered.

Just as he was about to draw his sword, Ji Jianming, the head of the Detective Division who was also standing by to maintain order, hurried over to hold his hand. His cold face showed a hint of apologetic smile, "Although Zhao Wumian once tried to assassinate the queen, he is now the princess's close friend and a hero who can resist the Rong people... He cannot be killed. At least, we should ask the queen and the... emperor for their opinions, right?"

The commander of the imperial guards glanced at Ji Jianming, knowing that the Detective Department and Zhao Wumian were actually in cahoots...but what he said was true.

With a stern face, he held the sword at his waist and walked quickly to Zhao Wumian and stopped the carriage. There was a group of imperial guards around who were eyeing him covetously... Although they were no match for Zhao Wumian, they could not lose in momentum.

"What is the purpose of Young Master Zhao coming to the palace?" the commander of the imperial guards asked coldly.

Without waiting for Zhao Wumian to reply, he added, "The coronation ceremony is being held in the palace right now, and no one is allowed to enter. As far as I know, although Master Zhao is a favorite of the princess, he has no official position after all... Of course, Master Zhao once offended the queen, and according to Dali law, it would not be too much to execute him in the street. However, considering that you have made great contributions in resisting the Rong people, we will not attack you, but you have to go with us."

This was said impartially, and the people around nodded secretly.

Zhao Wumian's attitude probably means he wants to enter the palace... But can anyone participate in the coronation ceremony? What's more, you have a criminal record.

Zhao Wumian nodded slightly, and then said: "I wonder in your opinion, which is more important, the coronation ceremony or the border military situation?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Wumian raised his hand and lifted the car curtain.

The commander of the imperial guards frowned, looked up, and then his face was slightly surprised. Ji Jianming also looked curiously, and then his expression changed. As a jade-branded constable of the Detective Department, he dreamed of committing crimes in the Dali Dynasty. He said in horror:
"Udamu's disciple Erige and the son of the state teacher, Wuerji!? These two people are not ordinary. Erige is an extraordinary martial artist. He is less than 30 years old. If he can practice for another ten years, he will definitely be the next martial arts master on the grassland. Wuerji is the leader of three tribes..."

The commander of the imperial guards actually didn’t recognize these two people, but Ji Jianming would never cooperate with Zhao Wumian in such a matter... This was military intelligence, and no one dared to joke about military intelligence.

He looked at Zhao Wumian in disbelief, and then whispered to Ji Jianming: "A martial arts genius, and the son of a national teacher... This is a double-edged swordsmanship... The lives of these two people can be exchanged for a lot of border soldiers, right?"

Ji Jianming rolled his eyes.
"This is a disciple of the national master, and the son of the national master! The Khan of the Rong people is just a puppet, and Wudamu is the only one in charge of the grassland! These two people may know Wudamu's weaknesses, but at the very least, they have information about the military strength and tribal relations of the various tribes in the grassland. As long as they master these, they can send people to sneak into the grassland to form alliances, sow discord and check and balance, and let them fight each other! Zhao Wumian was able to capture these two people, and this merit alone can be awarded a title!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the guards looked at Urji and Erige with fiery eyes.

Urji and Erige were tied up, huddled in the carriage with pale faces and gagged. Seeing that they were being treated like commodities, their faces turned red and their hearts beat like drums, but there was nothing they could do.

I can't resist even if I want to.

Because Guan Yunshu was also in the car, she was wearing a monk's robe and had a calm expression. Perhaps she disliked the two Rong people for being too smelly, so she sat near the door curtain of the car frame, three body lengths away from them... At this moment, she was supporting her face with one hand and raising her long sword with the other hand, holding it in front of Wuerji and Erige, to prevent the two from causing any trouble.

The guard leader also looked at Wuerji and Erige with a fiery gaze. After a few seconds, he suddenly reacted and subconsciously smiled on his stern face. He trotted to the front of the carriage with his sword on his waist, bowed and smiled gently:

"Lord Zhao... Lord Zhao, this is the best military achievement among the three armies. It has only been less than half a month since the Rong army entered the pass and you have already captured these two people. I wonder how much this will boost morale... Just now you said that you came to the palace to report military intelligence. Can you tell me more about it?"

Ji Jianming muttered quietly, "He is respectful at first and respectful later. He is worthy of being a person working in the palace..."

Zhao Wumian lowered his eyes and looked at him, "Are we discussing military intelligence here?"

The commander of the imperial guards reacted and immediately shouted to his colleagues beside him, "Let Lord Zhao in!"

After that, he hesitated again and whispered, "According to my duties, I can only let Mr. Zhao in through the outer gate. As for whether he can go through the inner gate and meet His Majesty in the Taiji Hall... I have to inform him first. And this monk..."

The commander of the imperial guards looked at Guan Yunshu, who had a calm expression, with hesitation on his face... This nun was obviously in cahoots with Zhao Wumian, but she was not an official either. She was just a person from the underworld. How could she be qualified to go to the Taiji Hall?
"I'll go, she stays in the car and waits for me." Zhao Wumian didn't say much, just waved his hand lightly, "Let's go in."

"As ordered!"

Guan Yunshu held up his face, his expression unchanged, and let Zhao Wumian make the decision.

The commander of the imperial guards personally pulled the reins and led the carriage slowly into the Xuanwu Gate.

The people around held their breath and looked at Zhao Wumian sitting in the carriage, and only started discussing after he entered the door.

"Having captured these two Rong people... doesn't that mean Zhao Wumian has already made meritorious contributions?"

"If the Queen still wants to pursue this matter, it would make her look immoral and petty."

"Having said that, the royal family still needs to maintain its reputation... I think Zhao Wumian only needs to go to Kunning Palace to apologize and be locked up for a few days, and then the matter will be over."

"The coronation ceremony is being held, and there is such good news... double happiness."

"I hope that His Majesty and Zhao Wumian can understand each other, kill Wudamu, and drive out the Rong people..."

"Alas, Zhao Wumian is a popular figure around the princess. I thought he could get the credit for following the emperor. But now that he has captured these two people, his contribution is not small at all... But the princess will definitely not be able to ascend the throne."

"To be honest, if the princess wants to become emperor, she can only do so after the emperor dies... But if the princess kills the emperor, who in the world can obey her? An emperor who kills his own blood relatives is immoral and violent. He will be rebelled against in the long run. Emperor Guangyou is a precedent."

"Yes, it's good as it is now. Let's drive the Rong people out first."

After entering Xuanwu Gate, the commander of the imperial guards led the carriage all the way to the inner gate and said:
"If His Majesty is willing to see Lord Zhao...you must leave your carriage and weapons behind. Even if Lord Zhao has made meritorious contributions to his crime, he will not be able to enter the palace in a sword-weary manner..."

"I understand." Zhao Wumian dismounted and stepped into the snow. He looked through the inner door and through the snow curtain. Most of the people on the white stone square were palace guards, dancers and musicians. As for the ministers, they had all gone to the Taiji Hall...presumably they were preparing to succeed to the throne.

He raised his hand slightly, lifted his fox fur, and revealed a dark blue scabbard hanging around his waist. "This is the Qingming scabbard, a token of love given to me by Miss Su. The Qingming sword has been taken away by Wudamu and has not been taken back yet... Is it possible to bring this scabbard into the palace?"

The commander of the imperial guards was slightly stunned, thinking that with Zhao Wumian's ability, if he really wanted to do something treasonous, it would be the same whether he took weapons or not. However, if he brought weapons into the palace, he would be blamed if he was investigated later.

But the scabbard... it just says that it can't hold weapons, so what kind of weapon is this scabbard?
The blame cannot be put on him. Zhao Wumian obviously has a bright future, so he cannot be offended at this moment.

The commander of the imperial guards patted his chest and said with a smile: "You can leave the horizontal sword behind. As for the scabbard...if you want to take it, my lord, you can take it. It is not a weapon, but it is still somewhat related. However, I will take care of it, so it's fine."

"Thank you very much."

"Where."

Look, this favor was given in just a few words? This is the way of being an official.

Before long, a palace servant shouted towards this place: "Send Zhao Wumian into the palace!"

Zhao Wumian's expression did not change, but the commander of the imperial guards laughed first, "It should be so... but the coronation ceremony is imminent, and you may need to wait until after the coronation ceremony to discuss military affairs... but you are a commoner, and the fact that you can go to the Taiji Palace now means that after this, you will definitely be promoted to a higher position and become a pillar of our Dali country."

Zhao Wumian raised his hand to take off the sword at his waist, Guan Yunshu lifted the curtain of the carriage, held up the hem of his monk's robe with one hand, and prepared to get off the carriage.

Zhao Wumian subconsciously extended his hand to her and smiled, "If you were dressed in formal attire, it would look like you and I were going to a banquet in the palace."

However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he realized that Guan Yunshu was not some delicate lady who needed his support... This woman was so beautiful and her temperament was so extraordinary and elegant that Zhao Wumian always felt that she must be a descendant of the nobility.

But before Zhao Wumian took back his hand, Guan Yunshu placed her hand on his palm, got off the carriage, and then withdrew her hand, took the Wuhen Knife from Zhao Wumian's hand, and looked at Zhao Wumian calmly, "I'll wait for you here. As for going to the banquet, you should get rid of this unrealistic idea..."

Guan Yunshu shook her head. How could she dress up and attend a banquet with a man? According to ethical principles, wouldn't that be equivalent to admitting that she had an affair with Zhao Wumian?

She and Zhao Wumian are innocent.

Guan Yunshu's hands were very soft, and perhaps because of the heavy snow, they were a little cold.

Zhao Wumian silently withdrew his hand without saying much. He smiled at Guan Yunshu, then walked through the inner gate and headed towards the Tai Chi Hall against the drifting snow on the White Stone Square.

The heavy snow had covered up the footprints near the inner gate, leaving only scattered footprints near the Taiji Hall. At this moment, Zhao Wumian stepped forward and left a series of footprints behind him.

There was only his footprints, making it seem that he was the only one in the wind and snow.

Guan Yunshu looked at his back, his peaceful expression gradually fluctuated, and for some reason, he felt an unspeakable sadness in his heart.

She recalled the scene in Xiaoxitian when Zhao Wumian led his horse away against the flow of people.

But at that time, she could still leave with Zhao Wumian, but what about now?

She could only stand here.

Guan Yunshu's eyes were a little complicated, and then he suddenly realized something... It was normal that he couldn't act with him, so why did he feel so sad?

This mentality is not right.

How can a Buddhist practitioner be obsessed with external things and human desires? The so-called greed, anger, and ignorance, the thought I just had was both greedy and ignorant... How could I be a monk at all?

Keeping a calm mind and looking at things with a relaxed attitude is the proper Buddhist behavior.

Guan Yunshu had a vague understanding that as long as she could figure it out, she could achieve unity between man and nature...but she could never break through that barrier.

Not at this moment.

When Guan Yunshu came to his senses, he saw Zhao Wumian had walked a long distance... and had entered the Tai Chi Hall.

Guan Yunshu suddenly thought... he was so busy comprehending the martial arts that he forgot to tell him to be careful.

A trace of regret arose in her heart, but this regret was not like the sadness just now.

It can't be suppressed no matter what.

In the Taiji Hall, civil and military officials stood on both sides.

Prime Minister Shen Yiwen stood at the top, holding the imperial edict, and was reading aloud Luo Shuzhi's succession decree.

"The late emperor passed away suddenly and returned to the five elements. I have received the favor of the emperor and the great blessings of the saints. I have followed the will of the late emperor and have been assigned to serve the ancestral family according to the order of ethics. The civil and military officials inside and outside the country, as well as the elders of the military and civilians, have urged me to ascend the throne. I have repeatedly refused and failed. I now respectfully report to heaven and earth..."

Luo Shuzhi was dressed in elaborate and gorgeous clothes, standing behind Shen Yiwen with his hands behind his back, but he did not sit down... As long as the coronation ceremony was not over, he could not be considered an emperor according to etiquette.

However, it would not be a problem even if he sat in that seat, but Luo Shuzhi might want to follow the rules meticulously.

Until someone hurriedly came to report, "Zhao Wumian captured Erige and Wuerji, and he claimed military intelligence and wanted to come to the palace to meet the Grand...Sage!"

Prime Minister Shen Yiwen paused, frowned slightly, and a bit of surprise appeared in his eyes, but as a prime minister with extraordinary bearing, there was no surprise on his face. He just tilted his head to look at Luo Shuzhi.

The ministers in the palace wanted to chat with each other, but in such a solemn occasion, the three dukes and nine ministers did not speak, so how could they dare to whisper. Until a white-haired old minister frowned, "Erige, Wuerji... these two people have a good status in the grassland, especially Wuerji... Zhao Wumian said that the military intelligence is important?"

This person was the Grand Marshal Jiang Benzhen, one of the Three Dukes, and the grandfather of Jiang Ronggao, the commander of Ningwu Pass.

He was a loyal minister who followed Emperor Taizu Gao to conquer the world. He was the Minister of War at the time. Later, when he was old, he retired and returned to his hometown. As a result, the Jingnan Campaign led to a major purge of the court. The then Grand Marshal was beheaded at the Meridian Gate. Emperor Jingzheng then pulled him back and conferred the title of Grand Marshal.

But he was one of the most prestigious people in the court. When he spoke at this moment, it was obvious that he was hinting at Luo Shuzhi. At this moment, the Rong people were blocking the pass. Although the coronation ceremony was important, the military intelligence could not be ignored.

When the court was divided into the "young emperor faction" and the "female emperor faction", none of the three ministers expressed their views, so when Jiang Benzhen spoke at this moment, it was obvious that he took the position of "putting public affairs first".

As soon as he opened his mouth, the ministers in the court immediately echoed him with "yes, yes".

Luo Shuzhi stood behind the prime minister, his expression was calm, he just raised his hand and said briefly, "Military information is important."

Maybe he had caught a cold, or was nervous or something, causing his voice to be a little hoarse, but no one noticed at the moment.

As soon as these words were spoken, someone ran out immediately.

Soon, the sound of footsteps came slowly from outside the hall, neither fast nor slow, but it struck the hearts of everyone in the hall.

The name Zhao Wumian has been ringing in their ears too many times in the past month. It is impossible not to be curious.

The golden-gourd warriors, black-armored guards and palace masters in the Taiji Hall were staring closely at the door of the hall... after all, the visitor was a person with a criminal record.

Soon, a handsome young man wearing a fox fur coat and a green shirt came to the front of the hall. He slowly shook his sleeves to shake off the snow on his clothes, and then walked into the hall under the gaze of a group of civil and military officials.

What a magnanimous person... Some people secretly thought that being impartial and generous was a good mentality. His only criminal record was the attempted assassination of the queen, but now with the military merit, it is not a big deal.

As for killing Master Gui Shou... martial arts are martial arts, and Master Gui Shou had no official position, so if he died, it could only be said that he was not as skilled as others, and it would not damage the reputation of the court... Since there is no loss, there is no need to bring it to the table and say more.

Zhao Wumian looked at the people in the hall. There were civil and military officials, golden-gourd warriors, black-armored guards, palace masters, and some masters, but no one could achieve the unity of man and nature and build a bridge to communicate between heaven and earth... This was also natural.

The top martial arts masters are not common people. If you include the hidden old monster and the sect’s trump cards, there are less than thirty of them in the world. Now one quarter of them are fighting in Zhuwu Lake.

Zhao Wumian walked past a crowd of civil and military officials and came to the front of the Taiji Hall. He raised his head slightly and looked at Luo Shuzhi, who was wearing an elaborate dragon robe.

Luo Shuzhi looked at him calmly.

This was the first time Zhao Wumian met Luo Shuzhi. At first glance... apart from looking somewhat similar to Luo Chaoyan, there was nothing special about him.

A eunuch reminded, "Zhao Wumian, you should kneel before the emperor."

Luo Shuzhi raised his hand slightly, but his eyes were still on Zhao Wumian. He said lightly, "Speak."

Everyone looked at Zhao Wumian in silence. Only when the soldiers blocked the gates could Zhao Wumian be allowed to interrupt the coronation ceremony because of military intelligence.

The Minister of War had a bad temper. A few seconds after Zhao Wumian entered the palace, he urged him, "Zhao Wumian, what kind of military intelligence is it that made you come here even if it meant interrupting the coronation ceremony? Could it be that one of Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass has been breached?"

Zhao Wumian smiled faintly, "It's not about the military intelligence of Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass... but Piantou Pass."

Prime Minister Shen Yiwen and Grand Commandant Jiang Benzhen closed their eyes, pretending to rest, and said nothing.

"Piantou Pass?" The ministers looked at each other.

The Minister of War said, "Piantou Pass was breached because Dong Wenzhen colluded with the Rong people... We originally thought that the mastermind behind this was the Prince of Jin, but now the Prince of Jin has died for his country and severely damaged Wudamu. It is obvious that Dong Wenzhen acted on his own initiative. Now he died at the hands of the princess and has been eliminated... Is there any other military information to report about Piantou Pass?"

Zhao Wumian glanced at him and said calmly, "The Piantou Pass was breached because Luo Shu intended to weaken the feudal lords and bring the Rong army into the pass, throwing the crime of treason on the King of Jin. However, the King of Jin died and was cleared of all charges, so the crime was taken by Dong Wenzhen alone... Is this the real military situation at Piantou Pass?"

The entire Taiji Hall fell silent, and Luo Shuzhi looked at Zhao Wumian indifferently.

The Minister of War looked shocked, as did all the ministers. You could hear a pin drop in the entire Taiji Hall.

This answer was both unexpected and reasonable... Luo Shuzhi only had 100,000 soldiers at his disposal, and among the three top military commanders in the court, only Eunuch Lin truly obeyed his orders, while Xu Ran and Chief Constable Su only followed orders and not decrees... This gap in combat power was the root of the evil left to Luo Shuzhi by the late emperor.

It's normal for Luo Shuzhi to want to reduce the power. No matter who sits on that position, they will want to reduce the power. It's just that the method of reducing the power... Now that I think about it in this direction, the princess was suddenly exposed in Qinfengzhai, the prince of Jin died, and Wudamu was seriously injured when he entered Taiyuan. These were obviously Luo Shuzhi's plot. He was still hiding in the dark, so as not to repeat the mistakes of Emperor Guangyou... Smart, it's really smart, killing three birds with one stone.

And considering Zhao Wumian's actions in the past month... Luo Shuzhi's plans were all ruined by Zhao Wumian!
What would happen if there was no Zhao Wumian?
Luo Chaoyan was abducted by Cao Yuan → Chief Constable Su and Xu Ran went to Jin to rescue her → Dong Wenzhen let the Rong army enter the pass → King Jin took the blame → Wudamu went to Taiyuan to persuade King Jin to surrender → Dong Yulou killed Dong Wenzhen, recovered the Jin army, and led the troops to Taiyuan to encircle and suppress Wudamu → The leader of the spear, Guiyi Zhenren, Xu Ran and Chief Constable Su learned that Wudamu went to Taiyuan, and they would definitely go to Taiyuan together to encircle and suppress Wudamu.

The spear leader wanted to save King Jin, Guiyi Zhenren wanted to prevent King Jin from colluding with the Rong people and went to kill him, Xu Ran and Chief Constable Su needed to capture Wudamu and force him to hand over Luo Chaoyan.

Everything is reasonable and proper.

Is there really a way for Wudamu to survive under the siege of these four martial arts masters? And with Dong Yulou's army of more than 20,000 people surrounding him, how can he escape?

impossible!
No matter how long Wudamu lives, he is still a human being!
After Wudamu's death, the morale of the grassland people dropped greatly. Dong Yulou took advantage of the situation and led his troops to Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass to resist the Rong people. This would not only restore the morale of the army and gather the Jin army, but he might also be able to take back Piantou Pass while the morale of the Rong people was greatly reduced.

What did Luo Shuzhi pay for? Eunuch Lin was not dead, and the 100,000 central troops did not lose a single soldier... Prince Jin, Xu Ran, Su Zongbu, Wudamu, let them fight each other.

The most brilliant way of killing someone with a borrowed knife!
Even when the Rong people broke through the pass, he 'recovered'. So the achievements of killing Wudamu and retaking Piantou Pass can all be credited to him!

What neither Emperor Taizu Gao nor Emperor Jingzheng could do was accomplished by Luo Shuzhi...

hiss--

There is not a single mediocre minister who can make a name for himself in the court. If they just think about it in this direction, they can roughly guess Luo Shuzhi's plan. Thinking of this, their scalps suddenly went numb, and they looked at Luo Shuzhi, who seemed harmless, standing in front of the dragon throne in horror.

I thought Luo Shuzhi was just a victim of poisoning by the King of Jin, but who knew...

They didn't know that besides his plan, Luo Shuzhi was also plotting to take the Nine Bells of Xiaoxitian.

The Prime Minister and the Grand Marshal remained silent with their eyes closed.

If the truth is just as Zhao Wumian said, then Luo Shuzhi's plan, from the first step, 'let Caoyuan capture Luo Chaoyan and lead Xu Ran and Su Zongbo to Jin', was ruined by Zhao Wumian.

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

Tian Songqing, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, was the first to speak, his voice trembling slightly, "You mean, although my nephew Chongyang died in the pass, he was actually just a pawn used to throw dirty water on the King of Jin!?"

Zhao Wumian nodded.

Tian Songqing, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, felt his legs weaken and he almost fell to the ground. He could not help but say in a hoarse voice, "My dear nephew Chongyang, will you die with your eyes open?"

The other civil and military officials looked at Tian Songqing with slightly complicated expressions.

However, although this plan is brilliant, it is too... vicious and cruel.

His half-sister and uncle were all plotted against by him. As for Su Qingqi who went to secretly pick up Luo Chaoyan, the Tie Luosha couple who escorted Luo Chaoyan, the chivalrous Mei Chongyang, and even the soldiers and civilians of Piantou Pass, wouldn't they all die with regrets? They were all just pawns of Luo Shuzhi...

This plan is great, but it is too inhumane.

If you are involved in politics, forget about having a so-called conscience. Who doesn't have dirty hands? Even Mei Chongyang's father always wanted to get some money for his son.

The only clean official was Hai Rui during Zhao Wumian’s time…and over the past thousands of years, how many people like Hai Rui have appeared?

In fact, there are quite a few, but the proportion is very small.

But people living in this world always have some conscience...even if it's not much.

Of course, whether they have a conscience or not is not important at all. Talking about conscience at this time is really naive. They are just curious. Who would believe Zhao Wumian if he said it so openly? What evidence does he have? Where are the witnesses and evidence?

Luo Shuzhi's expression remained unchanged, and he remained calm as usual. He looked at Zhao Wumian and uttered two words lightly, "Evidence."

The Minister of War immediately urged: "Zhao Wumian! This matter cannot be false! You open your mouth and say that it was the emperor who did it. Doesn't that mean that anyone can say that you are the culprit? Do you have any evidence? Show it out!"

All the civil and military officials in the court urged loudly, "Zhao Wumian! If you can't produce evidence, then once you say this, if there is even a trace of falsehood in what you said, your entire family will be executed!"

"Yes! Evidence!"

The guards standing on both sides of the hall had already silently pressed the hilts of their swords at their waists, waiting for Luo Shu's order.

Whether Zhao Wumian has evidence or not is actually not important at all. Even if he does, will all the civil and military officials rise up and attack Luo Shuzhi and beat him to death with punches just because he used such a vicious scheme?
impossible.

There were even quite a few extremely rational ministers who secretly admired Luo Shuzhi in their hearts. With such a character, such forbearance, and such strategies, although he certainly could not be described as a "benevolent" person, he could definitely be called a brave and resourceful hero.

As long as Luo Shu can use his wisdom to benefit the people of the world after he ascends the throne, there is no need to worry about not being able to create a prosperous era.
Luo Shuzhi knew this fact, as did all the civil and military officials, and even the guards who were unfamiliar with politics.

Luo Shuzhi looked at Zhao Wumian, and a hint of ridicule gradually emerged in his eyes.

Does the truth really matter?
This world belongs to him, Luo Shuzhi. The 10,000 imperial guards and 30,000 garrison troops in the capital obey him.

Even if Zhao Wumian let the ministers in the court know that all this was done by him, what would it matter?

However, Luo Shuzhi could suppress it with just a simple "it's a rumor".

It is the same throughout history, both in China and abroad.

The ministers in the field were outraged and urged Zhao Wumian to produce evidence.

They knew that even if Zhao Wumian produced evidence, it would be of no help to the overall situation. They just wanted to know the truth.

After knowing it, they should also accuse Zhao Wumian of some "false" crime and kill him.

After achieving the unity of nature and man, Zhao Wumian's five senses became extremely sharp. The sound waves were shaking in his ears, Luo Shuzhi's eyes were mocking, and the guard blade was slightly unsheathed, causing a slight friction sound, all of which went into his heart.

boom----

Pfft————

Suddenly, muffled sounds and sounds of penetration resounded throughout the Tai Chi Hall, immediately suppressing all unusual noises!

The sound of a pin drop could be heard throughout the Taiji Hall. The indignant ministers were stunned for a moment, and then all looked at Zhao Wumian with horror on their faces.

Zhao Wumian lightly lifted the fox fur coat, and his robe fluttered, revealing the dark blue scabbard at his waist. Everyone only saw a flash of black light, and the front end of the scabbard pressed against Luo Shuzhi's heart, and then pushed him back several steps until it pressed against the dragon throne, making a dull 'bang' sound, and then the scabbard instantly pierced into Luo Shuzhi's heart, and continued to nail it to the dragon throne!
There was another loud bang, and several spider-web-like cracks instantly appeared on the luxurious dragon throne.

Gold flakes and blood splattered all over Zhao Wumian's face, his blue shirt, and his fox fur coat.

Zhao Wumian had no expression on his face and said calmly:
"No sleep, no evidence."
