Dragon King Awakens in the Interstellar

223 Chapter 222: Interrogation Confession

Not long after Xiao Tingyun's birthday, an interrogation statement was presented at the court meeting. The court meeting, which had been harmonious and peaceful for several days, turned into a noisy vegetable market in an instant, and this interrogation statement came from That Abyss Clan pretending to be Huo Siyi.

The real Huo Siyi was killed at the age of 16, and has been pretended by this abyssal tribe named Dawa ever since.

I don't know what kind of torture methods were used by the security agency, but Dawa's mouth was actually pried open, and a lot of useful information was obtained from his mouth.

The most interesting thing about these news is that according to Dawa's account, since five years ago, no less than 2000 Abyssal people have infiltrated the Starfall Empire. They live on the planet, and the passage that allows them to sneak in is actually in the storm star field of the third galaxy.

The Storm Star Field is an unknown star field in the third galaxy, and it is also a red forbidden zone in the third galaxy, and the Ninth Legion of the Xingluo Empire is stationed in this area.

"What exactly is Fu Xiucheng doing?" A minister at the court questioned: "As the commander of the Ninth Army, he let so many Abyss people sneak into the empire, either he neglected his duties, or he has already betrayed the empire. "

Some people questioned it, and of course some defended the commander of the Ninth Army.

"The Fu family has been in the army for three generations. The grandparents and fathers all died in the battle with the Abyssal Clan. The Fu family has a blood feud with the Abyssal Clan. How could General Fu Xiucheng betray the empire and join the Abyssal Clan?"

"More than 2000 Abyssal Clans have infiltrated the empire in five years. That's two thousand. It's not two people or two hundred. If General Fu really didn't surrender to the enemy, how did those Abyssal Clans who infiltrated the empire come in under his nose? Yes? The Ninth Legion has been stationed near the Starfield of Storms eight years ago. In order to allow the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Army stationed there to rest well, the Empire spent two years building an army near the Starfield of Storms. An artificial planet was created to serve as their residence."

"Building an artificial star as a resident is still a trivial matter, but that artificial star is also equipped with various cutting-edge equipment of the empire, and there is even a patrol fleet patrolling around the storm star field every day. Under such strict monitoring, those How did the Abyss Clan come in and have not been discovered yet?"

"This doesn't mean that the problem lies with General Fu. Didn't anyone from the abyss who sneaked into the habitable planets of the empire find out? It means that they can sneak in because they can't be detected by our existing high-end planets." The equipment found their things. We lost in technology or means, but we can’t blame our generals and soldiers. If General Fu is found guilty because of this, then those planets that have been infiltrated by the Abyss Are the highest administrators equally guilty? After all, as the highest administrators on the planet, they did not notice the infiltration of the abyss race."

"That's right, more than 2000 abyssal races have secretly entered the empire. Who knows how many planets these 2000 people have sneaked into. According to everyone, how many top administrators of the planets should we punish? Or we There are also Abyss people hiding on the imperial capital planet? So who should be blamed for this crime?"

The ministers from both sides who were still arguing about whether the commander of the Ninth Legion should be punished or not suddenly fell silent. The same meaning - you don't want to live anymore?
If the Abyss Race really hid on the Imperial Capital Planet, the first person to be accused would be the highest ruler of the Royal Legion, that is, the Emperor.

The noisy court meeting fell silent, but the emperor's expression also turned ugly.

The emperor didn't care that the ministers were arguing non-stop at the court meeting, and was even very happy that they were getting more and more arguing, because when they were arguing, he could take advantage of the opportunity to remove all the positions of the commander of the Ninth Army. He also asked Fu Xiucheng to return to the Imperial Star to accept the review. In this way, the top leader of the Ninth Army would be temporarily vacant, and he could arrange his own people to take over the Ninth Army.

Fu Xiucheng, the head of the Ninth Army, is a tough guy. Although he has not accepted Xiao Junchen's olive branch over the years, but he has not been close to Prince Xiao Tingyun, Fu Xiucheng is a proper neutral party.

But no matter how neutral Fu Xiucheng was, Xiao Junchen still felt uneasy about him, because Fu Xiucheng and Lu Junxiao, the head of the Canglang Army, were classmates at the same school and even graduated from the same class. The Legion has experienced two years. They are competitors, but they are also comrades who can be delivered to the back and even life and death.

Based on this, even though Fu Xiucheng had always been neutral, and had even deliberately cut off contact with Lu Junxiao these years, Xiao Junchen was still worried about him.

After Dawa's confession was presented, Xiao Junchen's first reaction was not to find a way to find out the more than 2000 abyssal tribes, nor to find a way to enter the storm star field to block the passageway, but to be happy at the end Found out where Fu Xiucheng was wrong.

At such a time, the emperor actually thought about fighting for power, and he didn't know whether it was the sorrow of the empire or the sorrow of the people of the empire.

The ministers of the Manchaohui were all waiting for the emperor's decision, only Xiao Tingyun could see the joy in the emperor's heart.

Xiao Tingyun looked mockingly, and secretly said: Idiot.

Xiao Junchen really wanted to take this opportunity to take back the military power of the Ninth Army into his own hands, but the sentence "if the Emperor Capital Star also infiltrated the Abyss Clan, who should be blamed?" made him hesitate again.

After hesitating for a while, the emperor still couldn't resist the temptation of the Ninth Legion's military power, so he thought it over for a while, and said in a rather embarrassed way: "I also believe that General Fu will not collude with the Abyss Clan, but the Ninth Legion is stationed in the storm It is also true that the infiltration of the Abyss Race was not noticed near the star field."

The ministers of the Manchaohui looked at the emperor, waiting for the emperor's next decision.

After a pause, Xiao Junchen continued: "How about this, first recall General Fu back to the Imperial Capital Star for review, and then let General Fu go back after asking clearly, this will not only give General Fu a chance to prove his innocence, but also can Let you rest assured."

What he said seemed to be that these ministers were doubting General Fu's loyalty, and the emperor could only recall General Fu to inquire under pressure.

He obviously wanted the military power of the Ninth Army, but he still held the blame on his own subjects, but he himself became a peerless white lotus.

Xiao Tingyun couldn't help but sneered in his heart, it was the first time he knew that his uncle had the potential to be a white lotus.

but
Xiao Tingyun suppressed the sarcasm in his eyes, and suddenly said: "I think it's not right."

As soon as he opened his mouth, all the people in the court looked over.

Xiao Tingyun said calmly: "Recalling the army commander who has been stationed in the Storm Starfield for many years to the Imperial Capital Star based on the confession of a foreign race in the abyss, this will not only chill the heart of the general, but also chill the hard work The hearts of the soldiers of the Ninth Legion stationed there."

Xiao Tingyun raised his eyes to look at the emperor, and said bluntly: "Just as Master Yang said just now, the Abyss Clan can sneak into our Xingluo Empire with as many as 2000 people silently, which means that there must be something for them to do in their hands." We can't find out the method. If General Fu is asked to come back for review for this reason, shouldn't the top administrators of other planets who have been infiltrated by the Abyss Race be called back for interrogation? If it is not done equally, Will it make General Fu, who has always been devoted to his duties, feel targeted?"

Before the emperor could speak, Xiao Tingyun turned his eyes to Zhang Guangbai, the chief officer of the Security Department, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Master Zhang, when you interrogated this confession, why didn't you ask what method they used?" What about those who sneaked into the Empire while avoiding the eyes and ears of the Ninth Army?"

Zhang Guangbai immediately said: "Your Highness, it's not that our interrogator didn't ask, but that he couldn't. There seems to be something installed on the body of the Abyssal Clan named Dawa. Once he asks about confidential matters, he will either not be able to tell. , or when we forced him to question him urgently, he would bluntly say that he couldn’t speak, and if he did, he would die immediately.”

Xiao Tingyun nodded when he heard the words, and asked again: "Then did you ask in another way?"

Zhang Guangbai looked puzzled: "What?"

Xiao Tingyun smiled at him and reminded him: "For example, ask him if the commander of the Ninth Army has colluded with them. After all, he can even tell how many people from their clan have sneaked into the empire. Compared to this question, it shouldn’t be a secret to ask the commander of the Ninth Army whether he has anything to do with them, right?”

Zhang Guangbai was taken aback for a moment, then delighted, "Hey, it makes sense."

Xiao Tingyun no longer looked at the happy Zhang Guangbai, but looked at the emperor again, calmly and calmly said: "Compared to recalling General Fu back to the imperial capital, I think the news from Dawa and the other three is more convincing. Some, besides, now that we know that there is a gap in the Storm Star Field that allows the Abyssal Race to sneak in, shouldn't the most important thing right now be to plug this gap first? And General Fu has been stationed in Storm Star Field all year round. As for the situation in the Storm Starfield, I'm afraid no one knows better than him, so the task of entering the Storm Starfield to plug the gap can only be done by General Fu."

Xiao Tingyun didn't look at the emperor's stiff and ugly face, he said lightly: "Your Majesty, please take the overall situation into consideration and let General Fu lead the army into the Storm Star Field. Be sure to block that gap, so that the Abyss Clan army will not use it as a threat in the future. Breakthrough, and then attack my Xingluo Empire."

He said this very bluntly. Why do you ask His Majesty to put the overall situation first? Isn't that accusing the emperor of disregarding the overall situation?At this time, he still doesn't do serious things, and what he thinks about is still fighting for power.

Xiao Tingyun didn't say it clearly, but none of the ministers at the meeting couldn't hear it.

The ministers of the Manchaohui shut up one after another, whether it was the princeling party, the emperor's party, or other princeling parties or neutral parties, they all looked at His Royal Highness who was extremely rude when he suddenly became strong, and His Royal Highness who was rude To His Majesty the Emperor who was so angry that his face was ugly but he couldn't show it.

Many ministers were slandering in their hearts. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came back from Apocalypse, his attitude has become more and more tough. Even if it is against His Majesty the Emperor, he will not be soft, but every time he takes it for granted. Well, even if His Majesty the Emperor wanted to attack His Highness the Crown Prince, he couldn't find a reason.

Now they go to the court meeting every day with fear, afraid of encountering this kind of Shura field.

However, after a lot of experience in this kind of Shura field, the ministers have automatically learned a skill, that is, when His Royal Highness and the Emperor are confronting each other, they can immediately become the background board of this great court meeting, no matter which faction they belong to, They are very tacit and quiet like a chicken, and they will never get involved.

Quiet and quiet, they realized, hey. His Royal Highness just won another wave.

The crown prince's power is rising day by day. It can be said that he stepped on the emperor's authority step by step. Now the relationship between the crown prince and the emperor is becoming increasingly tense. Not to mention the ministers at the court can see it, even the outside world has spread various rumors. the wind.

And the rumors about the prince's eagerness to succeed to the throne have intensified.

The direction of the wind at the court meeting is not clear for the time being. It seems that they are noisy for a long time because of some things as usual, but there is a kind of calm before the storm in this usual way.

Calm and hidden chill
