Chapter 1249 The Imperial Envoy Visits the Dali Temple
In an instant, Shen Yian's vast spiritual consciousness enveloped the entire Tianwu City.
The originally clear sky seemed to sense his emotional fluctuations. A thick cloud gathered from somewhere, covering the sky and pressing down on Tianwu City. In the blink of an eye, the vast world became dark.
"The person was actually sent to the Dali Temple?"
After Shen Yian locked onto the positions of Qi Shang and the other three, he smiled in surprise.
With the instigation of some people, the originally minor conflict spread rapidly in the form of rumors of all sizes. All forces received the news, and undercurrents were surging in Tianwu City.
Some guys want to use this incident to provoke him to draw his knife and start killing, so he certainly cannot let everyone down. The knife will definitely fall, but it is not certain who will end up with it.
"Crack!"
The lightning split the dark clouds, bringing with it a roar of thunder.
"Hidden Disaster, follow me to the Dali Temple."
Shen Yian took out the mask and put it on his face.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Hidden Disaster, who was silently guarding behind him, said respectfully.
Dali Temple.
"So, you three didn't know what happened, and when you arrived, you only saw Qi Shang injured and fainted on the ground?"
Liu Rudi sat at the table, staring at Lu Xunming and the other two, and interrogated them in a cold voice.
"Your Excellency, yes, we don't know what Qi Shang did or why he was beaten."
Lu Xunming replied awkwardly.
If they had known they would be involved in such a storm, they should not have joined in the fun.
If I hadn't gone to join in the fun, I wouldn't have seen Qi Shang. In this way, even if I knew about this later, the most I would feel is some reprimand in my conscience.
It’s not like now, because of getting involved in Qi Shang’s affairs, their status as candidates might be affected.
"Really?"
"I advise you to think it over carefully."
Liu Rudi's eyes narrowed.
"Everything I say is true. I dare not lie to you, sir!"
Lu Xunming bowed, his tone firm.
"To tell you the truth, Qi Shang's case involves a lot of people. He has offended someone he shouldn't have offended. The other party will definitely find a way to kill Qi Shang, and the heads of you three unlucky guys are probably already clearly marked with a price on the black market."
"If you cooperate well, we at the Dali Temple can still protect you. Otherwise, haha, don't even think about taking part in the Spring Examination, your life will be in danger."
Liu Rudi stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth in front of the three people, and spoke slowly.
Except for Lu Xunming, the faces of the other two candidates turned visibly pale and they became nervous.
"Your Excellency, we really don't know what happened."
Restraining the fear in his heart, Lu Xunming pretended to be calm and answered through gritted teeth.
"Oh?"
"boom!"
Liu Rudi raised his eyebrows and suddenly raised his hand and slapped the table.
The solid wood round table had several noticeable cracks directly from where Liu Rudi's palm fell.
The sound frightened Lu Xunming and the other two so much that they trembled at the same time.
"Remember what you said now. I'll give you another half stick of time. I'll come back to ask you later. Think it over before you speak."
Liu Rudi flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly and walked out of the room.
"Snapped!"
When the door closed, a faint blue light flashed from the doorway, and the entire house was enveloped in the formation.
Outside.
"Master Liu."
Dashan, the chief judge of Dali Temple who was guarding outside the door, bowed and said.
"Alas, there is no need to ask any more questions to these three unlucky guys. They know nothing and it is useless to ask them."
Liu Rudi sighed, looked at Xing Dashan and asked, "Old Xing, have you found anything over there?"
"We found out. There are all kinds of rumors and gossips flying around. Fortunately, the people we sent out found some real information, and this matter also involves the Lu family."
Xing Dashan replied.
"The Lu family?"
Liu Rudi's brain was working fast, thinking about how many Lu families there were in Tianwu City.
"Lu Jiu, the Minister of Agriculture, his daughter Lu Lingxue seems to have an unusual relationship with Qi Shang. Today, someone saw Lu Lingxue shopping with the Princess of Chu and Xinwei Duke's daughter Qiu Lanlan, and then they rode together in the carriage of the Prince of Chu. It was because of Lu Lingxue that Qi Shang crashed into the Princess of Chu's carriage, and the love poem was also prepared for her."
Xing Dashan continued.
"If the truth is what you said, then what are the rumors out there?"
Liu Rudi thought about it, his expression changed, and he thought of some bad things.
"It was rumored that Qi Shang and the Princess of Chu had an ambiguous relationship..."
Xing Dashan took half a step forward and spoke in a very low voice.
"I#!"
Liu Rudi directly spoke a traditional Chinese quintessence.
Isn't this just trying to kill the four people?
Too bad!
Whether the King of Chu killed Qi Shang or not, it was a great insult to the dignity of a man.
If Qi Shang and other three died.
Regardless of whether it was done by the King of Chu or not, he is the biggest suspect.
If the four people had not died, someone would definitely have continued to fabricate this incident to make fun of the King of Chu.
This is simply forcing the other party to take action and making them stand in opposition to the scholars of the world.
A conflict incident has fermented into what it is now in a short period of time. The power of those behind the scenes who fanned the flames should not be underestimated.
Liu Rudi subconsciously looked towards the direction of the imperial palace.
Your Majesty must have known about this, but didn't take any action? Why didn't you help His Royal Highness the King of Chu?
eccentric.
The whole thing was so weird that it was beyond the ability of a small official like him to figure out.
"Boom!"
Thunder exploded.
Xing Dashan suddenly raised his head, as if he had seen something terrifying, and instinctively took two steps back, full of fear.
"Crack!"
The next second, Liu Rudi drew the sword from his waist, turned around quickly, and pulled Xing Dashan back.
I saw two figures standing on the roof, and I didn't know when they appeared.
He let the whistling wind blow his robes around, making a rustling sound. His pair of black eyes, deep as the abyss, looked at the two of them through the mask without any emotion.
Just being stared at by the other party, the pressure like a mountain made Liu Rudi breathless.
What level of strong man is this?
The divine realm?!
Liu Rudi was terrified.
Suddenly, another flash of lightning broke through the dark clouds, and the pale light illuminated the sky and the earth.
Liu Rudi's gaze then fell on the other person's waist. It was a light golden plate with a Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, and Four Elephants engraved on the front, with a huge "Emperor" character surrounded in the middle.
Emperor, the Emperor's order?!
The one coming is the emperor's envoy!
Although Liu Rudi had never actually seen an imperial decree, given his current official status, he had to remember the description of the style of the imperial decree.
"I, the guilty minister, Liu Rudi, Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple, pay my respects to the Imperial Envoy!"
"I am a sinner who has no vision and has offended the Imperial Envoy. Please punish me!"
"Snapped!"
Without any unnecessary hesitation, Liu Rudi threw his sword aside and prostrated himself on the ground in salute.
Xing Dashan, who was standing by, almost didn't react. After all, he had been in the officialdom for so long and had seen many scenes, both big and small. He immediately knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Your humble servant, Xing Dashan, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, pays respect to the Emperor's envoy!"
