Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Three days later, the Minister of War sent back news from the Eastern Frontier.

After his detailed investigation, visiting various cities and regions in the Eastern Frontier, he reported that the people were peaceful and healthy, social order was stable, and there was no blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier.

He only discovered that mysterious people were active outside the borders of the Eastern Frontier recently.

Marquis Champion was strictly guarding the border, and those people could not enter the border, so they couldn't stir up any trouble.

In short, the Eastern Frontier was stable, the people were peaceful and healthy, everything was in order, and the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier was just a fabrication, a reckless statement by the Chief Guard of the Governor.

The news was sent back on the morning of the third day, and in the afternoon, the Minister of War returned to the Imperial City with his people.

The officials breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out they were all rumors.

It was indeed unreliable. Thinking about it, this matter was unbelievable, like a fairy tale.

They should have believed the Prime Minister and the Duke from the beginning, and shouldn't have investigated, wasting their energy in vain.

… …

Yaohua Palace, Jun Wuxie also received the news.

He knew the Minister of War's investigation results in the morning.

Now, the news he received was from Immortal Treasure Tower.

Immortal Treasure Tower sent people to the Eastern Frontier and found the local intelligence organization.

However, the news they brought back was very little.

Their intelligence organization in the Eastern Frontier seemed to have lost their memory of certain things.

Including the people sent from the Imperial City, after leaving the Eastern Frontier, they also experienced memory loss.

The Chief Steward of the Immortal Treasure Tower stated that a powerful figure must have interfered in the affairs of the Eastern Frontier.

The blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier can be confirmed as true, and it was carefully planned.

It's just that the blood sacrifice has only just begun, and should only have appeared in a small number of cities, not yet covering most of the cities in the Eastern Frontier.

Among them, there were three cities that the people sent by the Immortal Treasure Tower failed to enter. They were blocked when they approached, ambushed, and almost lost their lives there.

If they guessed correctly, the blood sacrifice should be in those three cities.

Next, the scope of the blood sacrifice will definitely spread to other cities.

Liang Wan'er was very shocked, "Who is interfering, and has such abilities, that even the people of the Immortal Treasure Tower can't find out too much information.

Moreover, they actually dare to attack the people of the Immortal Treasure Tower!

Is it the mysterious force behind Liang Buqun?

Are they so strong that they dare to offend the Immortal Treasure Tower?"

"They have their own purposes, and for this reason, no matter who stands in their way, they will wield the butcher's knife in their hands, even the Immortal Treasure Tower will be no exception.

Now it can be confirmed that this matter must be related to Emperor Liang.

Otherwise, the Minister of War's investigation results would not be so certain.

Even if someone interfered and affected the memory of the investigators, they wouldn't be unable to detect any abnormalities.

The fact that the Minister of War so confidently said that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier was a fabrication already explains the problem."

Hearing Jun Wuxie say this, Liang Wan'er thought for a while and said, "Does the Young Master mean that Liang Buqun already knew about the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier, and sending the Minister of War was just for show, and the Minister of War's investigation results were also according to his intentions?"

"That's right."

Jun Wuxie nodded.

"Now, what should we do? What are the Young Master's next plans?

These few days, the academy has also been paying special attention to this matter, and many high-level officials are even preparing to go to the Eastern Frontier in person to find out what's going on."

"I'm going to make a trip to the Eastern Frontier.

I guess that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier should be a means for Emperor Liang to increase his strength.

Otherwise, he wouldn't participate in such a thing.

It is estimated that the evil secret technique was given to him by the mysterious force behind him, to collect enough blood soul essence.

Liang Buqun taking this step shows that he has been forced to a desperate and crazy point at any cost.

He now dreams of killing me and then eliminating Prince Qin's Mansion.

If I go to the Eastern Frontier, and it is his intention, he will definitely take the opportunity to let the mysterious force behind him kill me.

And I can also take the opportunity to find out what exactly is the origin of the mysterious force behind him."

"The Young Master wants to use himself as bait to lure out the mysterious force behind Liang Buqun, but this is too dangerous.

They even dare to attack the people of the Immortal Treasure Tower, and their murderous intent and strength are extremely terrifying.

If they dare to move the Immortal Treasure Tower, they will definitely not be afraid of the Jinyun Immortal Sect behind the Young Master.

Should the Young Master inform Jinyun and let the sect send a few strong people to go with him?"

"No, there is no need to alarm other people in the Jinyun Immortal Sect, I can go by myself."

"Then this princess will go with the Young Master. No matter what, this princess is also the eldest princess of the current dynasty, and is Liang Buqun's imperial sister.

Even if he is ruthless, he will not let people directly kill this princess.

In case of danger, this princess may be able to share the Young Master's worries.

Regarding the affairs of the Eastern Frontier, this princess also needs to appease the people there.

In the future, to become the Lord of Great Liang, this princess should also shoulder the responsibility."

Liang Wan'er didn't know why he was so confident that he wanted to go alone.

It would be fine if he didn't ask the sect for reinforcements, but he didn't even bring the senior sister from Prince Qin's Mansion?

"I agree."

Jun Wuxie did not refuse Liang Wan'er's company.

What she said made sense, she was going to ascend to the throne in the future.

Going to the Eastern Frontier at this time to solve the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier can gain a lot of points, leaving a very good impression in the hearts of the people of the Eastern Frontier, gaining trust and prestige.

In addition, she herself has the cultivation of the early stage of the Hongmeng Realm, which can solve some problems. There is no problem in going there as a thug with good strength.

Immediately, he contacted Qin Keqing with a jade slip.

"You finally contacted me, I have been waiting for your news.

The results of the Minister of War's investigation are out, but I don't think they are very reliable."

"Indeed unreliable, I can now be sure that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is related to Emperor Liang.

Therefore, the results of the investigation by the person he sent will certainly not be the truth.

The truth is still deeply covered in the Eastern Frontier.

Tomorrow morning, at the early court, you go to the palace and say that you do not recognize the Minister of War's investigation results, and say that a more capable person needs to go to the Eastern Frontier to investigate.

You just watch Liang Huang's reaction, and watch the Prime Minister and the Duke's reaction."

"Okay."

… …

The next morning, Emperor Liang was summoning his ministers in the Golden Luan Hall.

Qin Keqing went to the palace.

As soon as she arrived, she attracted the attention of the courtiers.

"Princess Anping, why are you here again today? Entering the palace without an edict, what do you think this Golden Luan Hall is? Do you still have His Majesty in your eyes?"

"Humph, Princess Anping, His Majesty sent the Minister of War to the Eastern Frontier to investigate the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier based on your suggestion that day.

Facts have proved that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is simply a fabrication, a false message from the Chief Guard of the Governor.

For this reason, a second-rank official of the dynasty was mobilized, wasting energy!

We haven't asked you for an explanation for this matter yet, and you broke into the Golden Luan Hall without permission today!"

"Okay, everyone be quiet."

Emperor Liang spoke, and the courtiers were silent.

"Princess, there is already a conclusion on the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier.

The Minister of War personally led a team to the Eastern Frontier to investigate, and the princess should have received the news yesterday.

Today, the princess entered the palace without an edict, I don't know what is going on.

Even though you are the daughter of Prince Qin, you have to give me an explanation for doing this."

"Your Majesty, this minister came here for the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier.

This minister believes that the Minister of War's investigation results are not credible."

"Princess Anping!"

The Minister of War's face was ugly, "What do you mean? I have to explain it clearly today!

This minister went to the Eastern Frontier and investigated tirelessly day and night, visiting various cities in the Eastern Frontier, and finally came up with the investigation results, and you want to deny it with one sentence?"

"That's right, this princess is denying your Minister of War's investigation results."

"Why? What evidence do you have to prove that the results of this minister's investigation are not credible?"

"There is no evidence, just because I am Yuan Chu's fiancée, he will support my views.

If the Minister is not convinced, he can go to Yuan Chu to argue."

"You… …"

The Minister of War trembled with anger.

"Princess, what you said is a bit bullying to the Minister of War."

Emperor Liang sighed, with a slightly unhappy expression.

"Your Majesty, this minister requests His Majesty to reopen the investigation."

"Princess Anping, what do you think the court is?

The investigation has already yielded results, you have no evidence, just one sentence that you don't recognize, and then you want His Majesty to reopen the investigation, it's really ridiculous!"

The Prime Minister stood up to accuse.

The Duke sneered: "If you, Princess Anping, never recognize it, are we going to investigate forever?"

"Princess, you are a bit rude today."

The Chief Assistant also stood up to accuse, "If you have new evidence to prove that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is still suspicious, this Chief Assistant supports your request for His Majesty to reopen the investigation.

But now the Minister of War already has the investigation results, but you, Princess, have no new evidence.

What the princess said in the court today is really difficult to convince people, and will only make people think that the princess is being unreasonable."

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing."

Emperor Liang, who had been silent for a moment, suddenly spoke, he looked at Qin Keqing, "Princess, you do not recognize the Minister of War's investigation results, if I reopen the investigation and send other people present to go, the investigation results will still be the same, I'm afraid the princess will still not agree, then this matter will never end.

Why don't the princess recommend someone, and I will appoint him as an imperial envoy to go to the Eastern Frontier to reinvestigate?"

"Your Majesty, you are making things difficult for this minister.

If the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is true, it will definitely be dangerous, and Prince Qin's Mansion has no one who can take on the task."

"If that's the case, what do you want me to do?

The imperial envoy I chose, the princess does not recognize the investigation results, I let you choose someone yourself, and the princess says that no one can take on the task."

Speaking of this, Emperor Liang pondered slightly, and then said: "Why don't we do this, let the princess and Young Master Yuan Chu go to the Eastern Frontier to investigate together?

With Young Master Yuan Chu's status and strength, no one would dare to touch him if he went to the Eastern Frontier.

Moreover, Young Master Yuan Chu is highly capable and will surely uncover the truth."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The Prime Minister echoed, "Since the Princess Consort does not approve of the investigation results of others, why not go yourself? You two are husband and wife, so you should approve of the results of your own investigation."

The Duke said, "Princess Anping, I don't know what you're hesitating about. His Majesty has already accommodated you so much."

The princess has come to court twice, both for the blood sacrifice in the Eastern Frontier.

Since the princess is so concerned, isn't personally investigating this matter what you desire?

Princess, you wouldn't be afraid of the danger in the Eastern Frontier, and therefore dare not go, would you?

If that's the case, then I'm afraid this Duke will think that the princess is just putting on an act when you repeatedly say you want to investigate the blood sacrifice in the Eastern Frontier!"

"答应 他们 。"

"Okay, I'll go, I'll go!"

Qin Keqing said coldly, then added, "As for whether Yuan Chu will agree to go to the Eastern Frontier, this princess cannot guarantee it.

If he doesn't go, this princess will go alone."

Of course, she knew that Lord God would go with her. She said this on purpose because she didn't want Emperor Liang to think that she had already communicated with Lord God.

"It's too dangerous for the princess to go alone. I'm not very relieved.

The princess should try to persuade Young Master Yuan Chu to go with you. His existence is a guarantee of the princess's safety.

I believe that with Young Master Yuan Chu's concern for the princess, he will definitely not let the princess go alone.

Young Master Yuan Chu is currently at Princess Yaohua's palace.

Princess, you can go to Yaohua Palace now and tell Young Master Yuan Chu about this.

Someone, lead the way for the princess and take her to Yaohua Palace."

"Princess Anping, please."

The chief eunuch walked to Qin Keqing and made a gesture of invitation.

"This subject takes her leave."

Qin Keqing bowed slightly and then followed the chief eunuch out of the Golden Luan Hall.

"This Princess Anping is just being ridiculous. Why has she suddenly become so willful?

Your Majesty, you are just too indulgent of her."

"Heh, after all, she is the only daughter of Prince Qin!"

......

In the court, many ministers said with unhappy expressions.

Many ministers were also muttering in their hearts, Yuan Chu is still in Yaohua Palace?

A few days ago, I heard news from the palace that Yuan Chu met with the Eldest Princess, took a fancy to the Eldest Princess's beauty, and stayed in Yaohua Palace.

I didn't expect that after so many days, he is still in Yaohua Palace.

I don't know if the Eldest Princess is sincerely willing to let Yuan Chu stay in Yaohua Palace, or if she doesn't dare to drive him away because of his status.

The Eldest Princess has sacrificed too much for the royal family and the dynasty, sacrificing herself and her chastity.

This Yuan Chu is really a lecherous person.

I only hope that he is not a person who likes the new and tires of the old, and that he will not abandon the Eldest Princess after he is tired of playing with her.

At this time, if Jun Wuxie heard the voices of some ministers, I wonder if he would have the urge to vomit blood.

However, when he agreed to Liang Wan'er's plan, he knew what kind of evaluation he would face.

What would the officials of Daliang think of him.

After all, in the Daliang court, there are only two factions.

One faction supports Emperor Liang in removing Prince Qin, and the other faction secretly supports Liang Wan'er in protecting Prince Qin.

There is quite a struggle between these two factions, competing with each other in the court.

But the point of their competition is not who to support, but their different views on the future of the dynasty.

The core of the competition lies in whether to deal with Prince Qin.

But now, no matter which faction, their views on Jun Wuxie are roughly the same, and they all think that he is a person who is easily addicted to beauty.

......

On the Yaohua Palace side, Qin Keqing had already arrived near the palace.

The chief eunuch stopped and said, "Princess, this old servant will send you here. Young Master Yuan Chu and the Eldest Princess are inside. Please go in by yourself."

After the chief eunuch finished speaking, he turned and left.

Qin Keqing looked at the Yaohua Palace in front of her, her expression a little dazed for a moment.

In her mind, she couldn't help but think about the scenes of Lord God and the Eldest Princess being together these days.

Although they were pretending to deceive Emperor Liang.

But the Eldest Princess's beauty is no less than her own.

For those hundreds of years, the Eldest Princess was the most beautiful woman in the Northwest Region, and her charm is beyond doubt.

Lord God spends every day with her. Will he develop a good impression of her and develop special feelings for her?

After all, Lord God has many imperial concubines. From this point, it can be seen that Lord God is more affectionate in matters of men and women.

Although the number of Lord God's imperial concubines is very different from that of other emperors in the world, far less than those emperors with three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines.

But facing a woman like the Eldest Princess, and if the Eldest Princess also has feelings for Lord God, wouldn't the two be running towards each other?

"Princess, how long are you going to stand at the door?"

Just as Qin Keqing was in a daze, Jun Wuxie's voice suddenly sounded in her mind.

Qin Keqing came back to her senses, calmed herself, adjusted her mood, and stepped into Yaohua Palace.

"Princess, the Eldest Princess and Young Master are already waiting. Please follow this servant."

A delicate woman in the attire of a female official came forward to greet her, leading Qin Keqing through the courtyard, past several long corridors, turning seven times and eight times, and arriving at the inner courtyard.

She then saw that Lord God and the Eldest Princess were sitting opposite each other at a stone table under a tree, looking at her together.

Qin Keqing's expression was dazed again.

Standing in her position, under the pear blossom tree, beside the white jade stone table, Lord God and the Eldest Princess were a perfect match, like a golden couple.

She felt a faint sourness in her heart for no reason.

She didn't know what was wrong with her. She hadn't recovered her memory, and only heard Lord God talk about her past with him. She shouldn't be jealous.

But these days, a sour feeling always arises in her heart uncontrollably.

Sometimes, she even felt that Lord God was clearly her husband, but he was with other women day and night.

Would the former self, the previous life's self, be so jealous?

Qin Keqing sometimes thought about this question.

But there was no answer.

"Princess?"

Jun Wuxie called out.

Qin Keqing was slightly startled, walked to the jade stone table under the pear blossom tree, and said softly, "A few days ago, you called me Keqing, but now you call me Princess."

Speaking of this, Qin Keqing sat directly beside Jun Wuxie and asked Liang Wan'er with a smile, "Eldest Princess, what does he call you? Is it Her Highness the Eldest Princess or Wan'er?"

Jun Wuxie was startled. Keqing's jealousy is really strong, but it is different from her previous life.

Liang Wan'er's face flashed with a hint of embarrassment, and then she said with a smile, "Princess, you know the relationship between this palace and Young Master Yuan Chu. It's just to deceive Liang Buqun as a plan.

The princess is the young master's fiancée. Why are you jealous of this palace?"

"I just said a joke to Her Highness the Eldest Princess. Please don't take it seriously, Her Highness the Eldest Princess."

Qin Keqing smiled lightly. She is a very intelligent woman.

She knew that she could be a little willful and act like a little girl, but she must not overdo it and must grasp the measure.

Lord God is not an ordinary man. With his status, he will definitely not tolerate his woman being wantonly willful.
