Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 128: Extravagant Praise for Emperor Qing

"Ku He won't let me!"

Leng Feibai smiled bitterly and said, "Old man Ku He said that I can marry her apprentice, but I have to give Ruoruo to him as his last disciple. Bei Qi should have mentioned this in the letter of confidant."

After hearing this, Emperor Qing turned around and asked, "Eunuch Hou, go and get the letter from the credential!"

Eunuch Hou hurriedly took the letter and handed it respectfully to Emperor Qing.

"This bitter lotus!"

Emperor Qing glanced through the documents briefly, a cold expression on his face as he said unhappily, "You've even extended your hand to the family of an important official of our dynasty. Leng Feibai, what are you planning?"

"You have to ask my godfather about this!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "If my adoptive father doesn't agree, I can only cultivate to the level of a Grandmaster, and then go to Northern Qi to get my wife back!"

"Hahaha!"

Emperor Qing laughed out loud, but Leng Feibai's face darkened. He then said, "Your Majesty, I have to discuss official business with you."

After saying that, Leng Feibai pointed at the person on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, do you know this person?"

Emperor Qing looked at the man kneeling with his head bowed and said in an unhappy tone, "I don't know him!"

Leng Feibai sighed and said, "I was called away by Ku He when I left Shangjing City, which delayed me, so I didn't return with the delegation. On my way back, I stopped at a place called Shijia Town. There, dozens of sixth and seventh rank bandits appeared, intending to set fire to the town and massacre it!"

As soon as these words fell, Fan Xian's face changed. Just as he was about to speak, Leng Feibai pushed him down to squat.

Leng Feibai continued, "I took action and took care of those bastards. I captured this leader and tortured him. But this bastard actually told me that he was carrying out the secret order from His Majesty to massacre the city!"

As soon as these words fell, Emperor Qing's expression darkened visibly. "Leng Feibai, are you questioning me?"

"His Majesty!"

Leng Feibai cried out in grievance, "Do you think I'm a fool?"

Looking at Leng Feibai's appearance, Emperor Qing was stunned and his expression became strange.

"Who are you?"

Leng Feibai's movements suddenly became exaggerated. "You are the emperor and father of Qing. You shine upon Qing like the sun in the sky. You are the ruler of ten thousand chariots, the greatest emperor of all time. Killing your subjects is something only an unjust and incompetent ruler would do. How could you possibly do that?"

The series of sugar-coated bullets bombarded Emperor Qing with confusion, and then he said, "Then why did you bring this person here?"

Leng Feibai became even more agitated after hearing this. He pointed at the drooping man and said, "This bastard spread rumors about you. Shouldn't I capture him and let you decide what to do with him? To stop this beast from spreading nonsense, I even pulled out his tongue!"

Hearing Leng Feibai's words, several princes couldn't help but gasp.

After hearing this, Emperor Qing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry and said, "You are so loyal!"

"I dare not!"

Leng Feibai took the opportunity to praise Fan Jian, "Father always taught us at home that a real man should be loyal to the emperor and love his country. Why argue pointlessly? It's better to be a loyal minister."

"well said!"

Emperor Qing nodded and said, "Leng Feibai, then you can deal with this villain for me."

"I accept the decree!"

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He raised his hand, inserted it into the neck of the drooping man, and pulled it out.

The next moment, a spine with red and white color appeared directly in Leng Feibai's hand.

"hiss"

Everyone present looked at Leng Feibai's actions. Except for Li Chengru who quickly covered his eyes, Li Chengping also took a breath of cold air.

Li Chengqian and Li Chengze staggered, and a hint of fear appeared in their eyes as they looked at Leng Feibai.

Emperor Qing's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes turned serious as he looked at Leng Feibai.

"He's ugly, but he has good bones!"

Leng Feibai played with the bone and said, "Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I will take Fan Xian with me and take my leave!"

"Wait!"

Emperor Qing said calmly, "Fan Xian said that the Second Brother and Li Yunrui colluded, using the inner treasury for smuggling and enriching themselves. What do you think?"

Leng Feibai glanced at Fan Xian and said calmly, "Without substantial evidence, any statement should be treated as a rumor. But Fan Xian is young after all, and his passion is easily incited by villains. If he has been rude, please forgive him, Your Majesty!"

Listening to Leng Feibai's words, Emperor Qing smiled and said, "That's right. After all, Fan Xian is not yet an adult, so I will forgive his youthful and ignorant sins. You can go back now!"

Leng Feibai held the bone and bowed, then pinched Fan Xian's neck and bones and quickly left.

"Li Chengru!"

Emperor Qing said indifferently, "Take the third brother back first!"

Li Chengru, who came from a military background, nodded, grabbed Li Chengping and quickly left the bedroom, fearing that his silly brother would be frightened.

"Your Majesty!" Li Chengze said hurriedly upon seeing this, "Before, Hongcheng..."

"Eunuch Hou!"

Emperor Qing glanced at Li Chengze, then stood up and asked, "What was the name of that position Leng Feibai had Fan Xian do just now?"

Seeing this, Eunuch Hou quickly said, "Your Majesty, the divine deer turning back!"

Emperor Qing nodded and pointed at Li Chengqian and Li Chengze, saying, "You two, go to the shore and stand in the posture of the divine deer turning back!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Chengze and Li Chengqian's faces turned pale, but they did not dare to disobey the order. They could only walk to the shore obediently and stand in the posture of a divine deer turning its head.

After all, they were his own children, so Emperor Qing didn't kick them hard, but just kicked them to the ground.

"I don't care who ordered the massacre of Shijia Town!"

Emperor Qing straightened his clothes and said, "But I don't want anything to happen again in Shijia Town. Do you understand?"

"I don't dare!"

Li Chengqian and Li Chengze adjusted their postures and knelt down to show their loyalty.

"Go down!"

Emperor Qing waved his sleeves and stood up to leave. Li Chengqian and Li Chengze stood up, rubbed their backs, and quickly left Emperor Qing's bedroom.

Inside the palace, Emperor Qing watched his troubled sons leave, muttering, "Leng Feibai, he can't stay in Kyoto. In that case, I can only apologize to my mother."

Having said this, Emperor Qing turned and called out, "Eunuch Hou, please go and summon Imperial Physician Zhao and Imperial Physician Li."

After hearing this, Eunuch Hou nodded and said, "I understand!"

After watching Eunuch Hou leave, Emperor Qing stood up and walked under his bed, and took out a box.

Inside the box was a button remote control.

"I can only let you go once!"

After Emperor Qing finished speaking, he raised his hand and pressed the remote control.

At the same time, outside Kyoto, in a room in the Hanging Temple.

A blindfolded man in black pushed the door open and walked out. As if inspired by something, he flew towards Kyoto.

In the alleyway leading out of the palace, Leng Feibai let go of Fan Xian and said angrily, "Do you think I was wronged for kicking you?"

"No injustice!"

Fan Xian lowered his head, knowing why Leng Feibai kicked him and leaked the information, which almost led to the destruction of the entire Shijia Town.

"You're reporting this to His Majesty without any substantial evidence."

Leng Feibai gritted his teeth and said angrily, "What's the matter? Did Yan Bingyun's sword poke your brain out? How could you do such a stupid thing?"

"I was impatient!"

Fan Xian quickly whispered, "Brother, is it really His Majesty..."

"Shh!"

Leng Feibai made a silencing gesture and swung the spine in his hand towards Fan Xian's buttocks. "Are you asking this here? Are you asking for your life? It's the Crown Prince!"

After hearing this, Fan Xian felt dizzy and two streams of blood flowed out of his nose.

Seeing this, Leng Feibai took out his handkerchief and handed it to Fan Xian.

Fan Xian covered his nose, squatted on the ground and started crying.

Leng Feibai didn't ridicule him, but just stood aside silently, then asked, "Where is Xie Bian?"

Fan Xian cried as he said, "I... I asked Old Wang to put the man in a sack and secretly send him back to the Fan Mansion."

Not long after, Li Chengze also came over.

When he saw the two of them, Li Chengze suddenly panicked and didn't know whether to advance or retreat.

"Your Highness!"

Leng Feibai flashed in front of Li Chengze. Li Chengze swallowed his saliva and said, "Leng Feibai, this is the imperial palace. If you act recklessly, it will not benefit the Fan family!"

"Threaten me!"

Leng Feibai stepped forward and said, "Second Prince, Xie Bian is still in my hands. Do you want him dead or alive?"

As soon as these words fell, Li Chengze's face changed drastically, and he quickly asked, "What do you want?"

"Hand over all the evidence you have regarding Baoyue Tower, and never use Baoyue Tower to threaten Fan Xian again!"

Leng Feibai whispered, "If you agree, I will return Xie Bian to you."
