I'm not a fortune teller.

Chapter 95 Choice
"Nie Yin couldn't stop him?"

In a remote corner of the palace, a young prince had a gloomy face, and the entire palace around him seemed to be in turmoil because of his emotions.

"It looks like that." A tall and thin eunuch buried his head very low: "The Nine Ministers Yin God appeared in the Suzaku Gate, and the Suzaku has been suppressed!"

The prince was silent after hearing this, and after a few breaths he spoke: "What do you think is the reason?"

"I didn't see it with my own eyes, so it's hard for me to judge the situation. Theoretically speaking, with Master Yi's ability and the ambush he set in advance, no sorcerer in the world can escape his sword. Moreover, although he may seem arrogant, he is actually very thoughtful and prudent. It's unlikely that there was an accident due to his behavior. It's more likely to be an external factor."

"External factors?" The prince stood up and said, "You mean Mr. Zhang?"

"He is the only one left. I just checked and he is gone. Also missing with him are the Imperial Guards Commander Hong Lie and Princess Yunyang. Logically, these two people cannot hinder the overall situation, but now it seems that they may have a different role."

"It's really interesting." The gloom on the prince's face disappeared instantly, and he smiled instead: "A minister who slept with the queen, and disguised himself as a woman to confuse the emperor's mind, these methods of his are really unheard of. I am curious about what he wants to do."

"My Lord, we still have a chance to inflict heavy damage on the Great Jin. At least we can make all the women and military heroes who remain in the palace surrender here!"

"What's the point?" The prince sneered. "The death of those people does not mean that the emperor will lose his support against the aristocratic families. He may even pay more attention to martial artists and fully use the martial arts sects to fill the vacancies. In this way, martial arts will rise. You must know that Mr. Tianji predicted that martial arts cannot rise. Once it gets out of control, we evil spirits may be reduced to the status of the ancient times."

"Forgive me for speaking frankly, but we still don't know whether Mr. Tianji is a friend or an enemy, so we can't trust everything he says."

"But you have to believe him 70%, because his predictions have never been wrong so far." The prince sighed and slowly left the palace: "What about the other side? No action?"

"It seems to be quite stable. It doesn't seem to be planning to make any moves before the world competition."

"Hmph, the world's great competition!" The prince snorted coldly, "This is also the reason why I dare not easily indulge the destruction of the military merit family. The military merit family is corrupt and arrogant. It is one of the cancers of Dajin. It occupies a large amount of resources but is suppressed by the disciples of the martial arts sects. If it were not for their tit-for-tat confrontation, the martial artists would have been able to compete with the sorcerer family long ago."

"If the Honor of Arms is in chaos, a large number of troops will lose their backbone. If that guy appears again, I'm afraid no one will be able to stop him. I don't want to face an unsolvable monster."

"So let's just forget about it?" the eunuch asked cautiously.

If such a good opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to have the next one. In this battle alone, they have exposed more than a few cards. Not only the cards of the Imperial Study, the Queen, but even Master Yi of Donghuang Island will find it difficult to play such a decisive role in the future. The aristocratic families and the emperor will definitely be vigilant, and even the identity of the master may be exposed.

Under such circumstances, can we really just let it go like this?
"Even if all the chess pieces are useless, even if a thousand years are wasted, it is better than being ruined all at once." The prince looked at the starry sky and said quietly: "The thing we painting spirits have the most is time."

The eunuch frowned but dared not speak. They had been waiting for this day for too long. This was almost the closest they had ever been to success.

"Don't worry." The prince smiled and said, "It's not that we have gained nothing. At least the true face of our Majesty has been exposed. The noble families will definitely join forces to fight against this ambitious emperor. There will be a national competition in the next spring. The noble families will definitely not remain indifferent. I think his luck has declined. If he doesn't change his luck in this national competition, he will stop here!"

"Good swordsmanship"

In the imperial study, the emperor covered his chest and slowly backed away. At this time, Murong Yunji was nowhere to be seen. When the emperor woke up, there was only the queen standing coldly beside him.

Why not stab him to death?
This is what the Queen wanted to ask the most, but now she couldn't ask it anymore. The heartless man had disappeared, and she didn't know whether his last words were meant to comfort her or not.

The emperor paid no attention to the queen beside him and just stared at his chest in a daze.

After being controlled, he had a vague memory of many things. He only remembered that the beautiful woman who had shocked his heart appeared, and then he lost consciousness.

Was it her who did it?

The emperor touched his chest with a smile on his face. He seemed to vaguely remember some scenes. He had been completely controlled, but he vaguely regained some consciousness because of being stabbed with a sword. He could feel that she was nearby, but he couldn't hear what she said and couldn't see what she looked like.

But now it seems that she is saving herself
So, you have always been by my side, right?
The emperor grinned and walked out of the imperial study step by step.

"Your Majesty, do you have nothing to say to me?" the Queen said coldly.

The matter has been exposed. She has no intention of playing the role of emperor and empress with the other party. If she is going to die, at least she has to die standing.

"We have nothing to say to each other, right?" The emperor said without turning his head, "I am sorry for you, but I don't owe you anything. If the queen wants a male lover, I won't interfere, but please don't take it seriously. He is just a man with a bit of color, and it is not worth your efforts."

"That's none of your business." said the queen coldly.

"How are you going to explain this to Yueyao?"

"Why should I explain to her?"

The emperor nodded slightly upon hearing this: "I understand."

The queen seemed to be fed up with him, and she had no feelings for her own children. When a woman becomes cruel, she is really scary. But it was okay, because both the queen and the children were abandoned. He once felt a little guilty towards the queen, but now he could make good use of it.

"You can't die, because I still need Huang'er and Yueyao. As long as the queen is quiet and honest in the next few days, I dare not do anything to you and your little male lover."

Upon hearing this, the Queen looked at the man with whom she had lived for nearly thirty years in sudden realization.

When did he become like this?

When I was little, I smiled so gently.
Maybe at that time, the smile was fake?
When she thought of this, she got goosebumps all over her body and even wanted to vomit.

I actually lived with such a man for so long.
The emperor did not stay, but left quickly. He had to deal with the current situation. Of course, he also wanted to take a look at the traces she left behind.

This incident is so big, even for her, there should be a lot of traces left, right?
I will find you this time!

"master?"

Outside the capital, the Donghuang disciples who were anxiously awaiting news from Master Yi excitedly went to greet him after seeing the familiar figure.

When they got closer, their faces changed drastically. Master Yi was covered in wounds and even had a broken arm. His face looked more dejected than ever before.

"Just one step away. What a pity."

"This master? Who could do this?" The eldest disciple gritted his teeth, anger in his eyes.

"I don't remember." Master Yi shook his head slightly.

Can not remember?

All the disciples were stunned.

Master Yi ignored the confusion on their faces, but turned around to look at the prosperous capital city with a complicated expression.

Trapped in the Seven Star Sword Formation, Jiang Linfeng naturally would not miss the opportunity. The outstanding lone wolf of the Jiang family directly awakened the Yin God. With the cooperation of the Yin God, he was lucky to escape unscathed. After all, weak humans, with only their physical bodies, were far behind those terrifying Yin Gods.

In the end, he really didn't care who cut his arm. It seemed to be Qing Yunzi? It seemed to be Ling Yunzi?
Anyway, he is not the opponent that I care about most.

It’s such a frustrating loss!

If he had been defeated fairly, he would have had nothing to say, but he ended up losing because of such a trick, and the person who used the trick didn't even bother to use real means against him.

"You guys go back." Master Yi was silent for a long time and finally spoke.

"Master?" Several disciples were stunned: "What about you?"

"The original plan has been moved up, but there is still a backup plan. That person will not give up easily. The upcoming Spring Examination and the Grand Competition are both great opportunities to make plans. I have to stay here and look for an opportunity."

"But Master, you are injured."

"If the great cause can be accomplished, an arm will not be a big deal." Master Yi looked at his broken arm and said, "If the great cause cannot be accomplished, it will be meaningless to live a miserable life with a disabled body."

Physical disability is extremely important for a warrior. Even if he is still a master, it is almost impossible for him to make further progress.

And he was very unwilling to escape back in disgrace before it even reached that stage.——
"Master Jiang, you are finally here!"

Inside the Suzaku Gate, Wei Jiaming and the other man, who had been fighting hard, felt relieved. Although they didn't know that the other party would come so late, as long as the guardian Yin God was awakened, they would have won half the battle today.

Jiang Linfeng looked at the Vermillion Bird flying in the sky, his eyes full of hesitation.

Son, this is a good opportunity not to be missed!

My father's last words before he died kept echoing in my ears.

Despite many changes, we still have the initiative. But do we really want to take this chance?
