Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

Don't buy it at all!

Clang!

At the moment when Jiang Yunping took the lead in releasing his spiritual power, Fang Yu and other Xuanji guards almost simultaneously drew their swords, and then they flashed and appeared next to Lu Chen.

The moment they drew their swords, the palace guards behind Jiang Yunping also moved at the same time. They pulled out the sword blades from their waists and came to Jiang Yunping in one stride.

Except for Fu Hua who was silently guarding Lu Chen, the guards on both sides regarded each other as mortal enemies at this moment.

Just waiting for an order, either you die or I die!

Jiang Yunping suddenly became furious when he saw that Lu Chen's bodyguard stood in front of him without any hesitation and pointed his sword at him without any hesitation.

Do these people still see him as the prince? !

Ever since his brother Emperor Xuan succeeded to the throne, no one has ever dared to be so disrespectful to him, the lord of Yuzhou, in the land of Yuzhou. After so many years, he has long forgotten what it feels like to be pointed at with a sharp knife. .

But now, these despicable warriors, dog-like things, dare to be so disrespectful to him, the current emperor's direct uncle, as if they don't take him seriously at all. How can he not be angry?

However, just when he was about to get angry at Xuan Jiwei, Lu Chen slowly stood up from his seat.

"The person who made the mistake must be you, His Highness King Yu."

He stretched out his hand, put it on Fang Yu's shoulder, gently pushed him away, and then looked calmly at Jiang Yunping, who was firmly protected by the guards and could hardly see anyone in the middle, and said calmly:

"I am the governor of the two states appointed by His Majesty. I am an official of the imperial court! I am not your personal minister, His Highness King Yu. Today, only Your Majesty can order me. Others, whether they are members of the royal family like you, Your Highness King Yu, No one, be it my elders or the prince or concubine, is qualified to give orders to me, and I have no obligation to obey the orders of anyone other than Your Majesty."

Having said this, a hint of disdain suddenly flashed across his extremely plain eyes.

"So, Your Highness King Yu, please forgive me for not complying with your unreasonable request!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yunping was completely angry.

"You're such a dog-like thing, how dare you disobey my king's orders?!"

As he said that, he looked at the Xuanji Guards in front of him and scolded angrily: "And you, I am a direct royal family member of the late emperor's mother! You dare to use your sword on me, do you want to rebel?!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely solemn.

Even the air was much heavier, making Zhao Ping and Cui Gu breathless.

Immortals fight, mortals suffer.

Lu Chen and Jiang Yunping, on the one hand, are the governors of the two states who were given the sword of Ji Dao by the empress. They hold high positions and have the power of life and death over the entire Yuzhou and Suizhou official circles. Relying on the late emperor's favor and Long Linjian's ability to "knock the emperor unconscious from above and punish the rebellious ministers from below", Long Linjian was arrogant and daring. Everyone in Yuzhou feared him like a tiger and dared to be angry but dare not speak out.

Faced with the confrontation between the two big figures, the new emperor's favorite and the late emperor's brother, Zhao Ping and Cui Gu didn't even dare to say anything, so naturally they didn't dare to speak rashly.

Because it can really kill people!

However, Fang Yu and other Xuanji guards who were scolded by King Yu did not flinch even a little bit.

There was even a trace of disdain in his eyes.

Will they be afraid of secular kings?

joke!

They are serious people in the Holy Realm, and they are also the elites of the most powerful Xuanwu Guards of the Cangming Army who follow the Holy King to kill evil spirits and guard the peace of the Holy Realm. In their eyes, the Holy King is the supreme one. The presence.

The empress, who has the full support of the Holy King, is also qualified to sit on an equal footing with the Holy King and issue orders to them.

But who is a mere prince?

Why should they fear a powerful man who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth?

"King Yu, don't go too far."

Lu Chen's voice began to sound cold.

"Yuzhou is His Majesty's Yuzhou, and it is also the Yuzhou of Yuzhou people, not your private residence, and the people of Yuzhou are not your slaves. If you continue to make trouble unreasonably, don't blame me for being rude."

He had a sullen look on his face and looked like he was really angry, but only he knew what was going on inside.

"Unreasonable? What a joke!"

Jiang Yunping was so angry that he laughed back and said with a sneer: "I am the lord of Yuzhou who was granted the title by the late emperor. The affairs of Yuzhou belong to me. I am doing this now. Who dares to disobey?"

Lu Chen snorted coldly and said coldly: "What happens in Yuzhou depends on the people of Yuzhou, your Majesty, and all the loyal ministers and talents who have great ambitions and serve the people wholeheartedly! And you... are just a moth that eats the people. , if you keep to yourself and don't do such things that are harmful to the world, I will not bother to argue with you for the sake of the late emperor, but if you go too far, I will never tolerate it!"

"you!"

When Jiang Yunping heard Lu Chen scolding him in person without any scruples, Jiang Yunping's eyes widened in anger.

However, before he could scold Lu Chen angrily, Lu Chen took another step, passed directly over the Xuanji guards, and stood upright in front of the royal guards, saying in a cold voice: "Your Highness, King Yu, don't do this. Forgot? According to the laws of Daxia, all princes are not allowed to interfere with the government administration of the fiefdom, and they are not allowed to interact too much with local officials, otherwise they will be punished for treason!"

"Furthermore, His Highness King Yu, you are so protective of a shameless villain who is buying grain wantonly and intending to take advantage of the bursting of the Qingjiang River to make a fortune for the country. You don't hesitate to come here in person in an attempt to use imperial power to force us to release them. Could it be that you have something to do with this case? There is a connection, or the person behind the scenes is His Highness King Yu, aren’t you?"

"Bastard!"

Being treated with such contempt and contempt by Lu Chen, Jiang Yunping couldn't bear it any longer. In anger, he suddenly pulled out the Long Lin Sword with his right hand and pointed the blade directly at Lu Chen.

"You dare to slander me. Do you want to test whether my sword is sharp?"

Clang!

The moment Jiang Yunping drew his sword, a golden light flashed in Lu Chen's hand.

"My sword is not bad at all!"

................

Chapter 91 The Swordsman

"Bastard!"

Seeing that Lu Chen actually dared to pull out the sword of Ji Dao and confront him, Jiang Yunping immediately scolded him angrily, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"You dare to use the sword of extreme justice against me. Do you think that I am a traitor to the sect?"

"The royal family uses power to suppress others, attempts to use royal power to absolve criminals, and even attempts to cover up their heinous crimes."

Lu Chen looked directly into Jiang Yunping's angry eyes without fear.

"Such a royal family, what else is it if it's not against the sect?"

"Bullshit!"

Jiang Yunping angrily said:

"I am just thinking about my old relationship. How can I use power to disrupt the law? Liao Ji has served in my palace for many years. He has been working hard and making great achievements, but he does not want to end up in prison inexplicably when he is old. I cannot bear to have him suffer from serious illness. He suffered so much in prison that he came here to protect him, but how come he turned out to be a villain with evil intentions in your mouth?!"

"And you keep saying that Liao Ji collects grain to make money from the Qingjiang flood. Is there any sufficient evidence for this matter? If not, what authority do you have to detain my king's people? Doesn't it mean that my Daxia Law stipulates that if the water level increases, Buying and selling grain is no longer allowed? How do you know that Liao Ji buys grain not to prepare for emergencies? Or to make wine and do some wine business so that he can support himself when he gets older and leaves the palace? "

In response to these remarks, Lu Chen smiled coldly.

"Just in case? Brewing wine? Ridiculous!"

He said with disdain: "What family needs to prepare hundreds of thousands of stones of food for storage? And what business needs to use enough food for a hundred thousand troops to consume for several months? And this guy can collect so much food in such a short period of time , I have reason to suspect that he may have colluded with the government where he purchased the grain, and moved the official warehouse! What's more, this guy is just the manager of a prince's palace, but he has a huge sum of money that can buy so much grain at once. This shows that there is most likely someone behind the scenes!"

"The people are the foundation of the country, and food is the foundation of the people. If the food is not stable, the people will be in chaos, and the country will be in turmoil. How can I not investigate this matter that involves the survival of the country? How can I let such a great harm to the country be allowed to cause disaster? The world? This Liao Ji is involved in such a big case, how can I keep him out of the sight of the government?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yunping's expression froze slightly, and then a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.

This dog officer... knows a lot.

Not far away, when Zhao Ping heard Lu Chen mention the word "official warehouse", his body trembled inexplicably, and there was a hint of fear on his shiny face.

"Humph!"

Jiang Yunping snorted coldly, "I can't understand what nonsense you are talking about, and I am too lazy to talk nonsense to you. I am here to protect people..."

"No bail."

Before Jiang Yunping could finish speaking, Lu Chen interrupted without hesitation, giving a brief but powerful response.

Seeing Lu Chen being so disrespectful, Jiang Yunping's eyes suddenly froze, and the spiritual power in his body suddenly exploded.

Swish!

With the rapid influx of spiritual power, the sword body of Long Linjian bloomed with streaks of light.

The next second, an invisible force surged out from the Long Lin Sword and quickly surrounded Jiang Yunping.

pat!

Accompanied by crisp sounds, the floor under Jiang Yunping's feet could not bear the power of the Long Lin Sword at all, and began to crack in all directions from Jiang Yunping's position, forming spider web-like cracks.

The gravel was rolled up by that force and suspended in mid-air.

The violent wind surged up, and the python robe swayed back and forth. Under the surge of spiritual power, Jiang Yunping's momentum at this time was extremely amazing and he felt full of oppression.

If an ordinary official was faced with such an angry royal family, he would have been frightened and fell down. However, under Jiang Yunping's gaze, Lu Chen remained calm and unaffected at all.

"You bitch, say it again if you dare!"

Facing Jiang Yunping's sudden burst of momentum, Lu Chen first narrowed his eyes, then stretched out his hand to stop Fang Yu who wanted to step forward.

"Don't say it once, even if you say it ten times or a hundred times, I will never change my words!"

With that said, he stepped forward again and said fearlessly:

"You can't take away the people I'm currently locking up!"

"court death!"

Jiang Yunping was so angry that he raised his hand, and the Long Linjian suddenly flashed a milky-white sword flower in mid-air. Then, an extremely sharp sword light suddenly flew out from the blade, and with the violent sound of breaking wind, it flew towards Lu Chen. Fly away from the door.

The speed of the sword light was very fast, and it flew to Lu Chen in an instant.

Lu Chen, on the other hand, stood calmly on the spot, making no movement to stop him, and there was no trace of fear on his face.

Seeing that Lu Chen was about to be killed by Jiang Yunping's sword, Fu Hua behind him suddenly moved.

She raised her eyes slightly and pressed down her little hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist.

Hey~

At the same time as the long sword at his waist let out a soft groan, the sword light that was about to hit Lu Chen's face instantly disintegrated, turned into dots of starlight in an instant, and completely disappeared into the air in an instant.

Seeing this scene, the faces of the masters beside Jiang Yunping suddenly darkened.

King Yu's cultivation level is not bad, and he is practicing both ways. He is also nourished by countless heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and magical elixirs. His strength is comparable to that of the Tianyuan realm. Although a sword of such a strong man will not shake the world, it is not casual either. It can be blocked.

But now, not only did the opponent easily block King Yu's sword energy, but they, the powerful Guixu Realm warriors, were completely unaware of the opponent's movements.

In this case, either the opponent has some secret treasure or other trump card, or there is an expert present!
