Chapter 1520: Confrontation in the Imperial Study Chapter 1520: Confrontation in the Imperial Study If it wasn’t for Ji Xueyan, today’s events would never have happened.
Or if he didn’t have a Heavenly Dao realm expert backing him, the officials would be weak while the Renhuang would be strong.
It would be the same as always.
But there were not so many ifs in the world!
Moreover…
The last time he was rewarded, he did not hand over the Soul Palace and the Fentian Palace to him.
He had some guesses in his heart.
As the Human Ruler, he would not allow the balance to be lost.
…
He would not allow one family to be dominant.
He had to pave the way for the future Human Ruler.
Would there be a situation where officials would encroach on the imperial power and become too big to lose?
Today was a good time to try and see if his deduction was correct.
He patted the Five-Dragon Spirit Taming Belt and noticed that there were several gazes on his waist.
They were not careless just because he was at the eighth tier of the Zongshi realm on the surface.
This had never happened before.
Even Wei Shang was the same.
He squinted his eyes subconsciously as if he was on guard.
“As expected!”
Zhang Ronghua thought to himself that there was no need to try anymore.
He had already obtained the result he wanted.
As he gained more and more power, the civil servant was the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the general was the general of the ZhongTian Army, and he controlled 200,000 soldiers.
In addition to the True Dragon Palace and the Scarlet Heaven Palace controlled by the special envoy, as well as the prestige of the people and the army, no matter how generous the Xia Emperor was, he would be wary.
He took out the fake evidence that Murong An had created.
Wei Shang came down from the imperial platform and returned with the item, handing it to the Emperor.
The Xia Emperor looked at it very seriously, not missing a single thing.
He then placed the evidence on the imperial case, not asking if it was real or fake.
If Zhang Ronghua dared to hand it over, it didn’t matter if it was real or fake.
Now, it was real!
Investigate?
How?
Unless Murong An spoke, Princess Lan He and Iron Fist would be crippled.
It was impossible to count on them to testify.
Taking a step back, even if the two of them were not crippled, they were still members of the Dragon Slaying Alliance, including those who had plotted to eliminate the entire Wu family back then.
Who would believe the words of such a person?
“Secret execution!”
It was within expectations.
In principle, the best outcome was to take a step back, take advantage of the situation, and secretly accumulate strength.
However, this matter involved his father.
Although he had taken revenge for the secret execution and eliminated the enemy by the roots, it could not intimidate the others.
It was far from the original plan.
It wasn’t that Zhang Ronghua didn’t understand, but he wouldn’t compromise.
It didn’t matter if he was stupid or one-track minded, but this was who he was!
“Following their lead, I found some clues about the Dragon Slaying Alliance!”
The Xia Emperor’s expression did not change, but his heart was cold.
This was a threat to him.
This had happened to the three dukes and the five pavilion elders before.
They had fought in secret and competed in the art of power.
Now, the person whom he had personally nurtured was showing his fangs for the first time.
No matter how angry he was, he could not show any of it.
He asked,” What have you found?”
“If the news is correct, we can eliminate the Heaven Piercing Sacred Land!”
The Xia Emperor didn’t say anything.
He understood the meaning of these words.
If he didn’t agree, then the information would be wrong, and agreeing would be right!
Zhang Ronghua continued to unleash his ultimate move.” It’s said that the Dragon Slaying Alliance has thirty-six Heavenly Dipper Sects and seventy-two Disha Sects.
According to the news I received, there are a total of twenty-six spots.
Whether it’s true or not still needs further verification.”
Kacha!
The Xia Emperor smashed the teacup on the ground, sprinkling water all over the floor.
It was unknown whether he was angered by the matter of the Heavenly Piercing Holy Land or venting his anger on Zhang Ronghua’s blatant threat.
Terrifying killing intent erupted, and even his dragon eyes turned cold.” Lawless!”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t seem to notice the intention of the scene in front of him.
He still lowered his head and didn’t move.
His gaze fell on the tea and his back was very straight.
The Xia Emperor said coldly,” I’ve said before that no matter who is involved in the Dragon-Slaying Alliance’s matter, we will investigate it thoroughly.
If we find anyone, we will deal with them one by one.
We will not tolerate them.
Let alone the imperial clan, even the princes will be the same!”
“Please rest assured, Your Majesty.
I won’t let you down!”
“Zhen believes you.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
” There’s no time to lose,” Emperor Xia said.” Once we’re done with the matter of the Second-rank Prince Pingnan’s Mansion, we’ll capture the Heavenly Piercing Holy Land in one fell swoop.”
“Yes, sir!”
“Go!”
Zhang Ronghua bowed and left.
When the door closed.
The anger on Emperor Xia’s face disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and terrifying expression.
It was as if he was hiding a huge storm and was enduring it.
A heavy and murderous aura enveloped the entire hall.
Even Wei Shang had no choice but to lower his head and control his breathing, trying his best to reduce his presence.
“What a double-edged sword!”
He had actually lost in this confrontation.
He had to admire Zhang Ronghua’s methods.
” Let the Grand Primordium Demonic God investigate the True Dragon Palace and the Scarlet Heaven Palace in secret!”
Wei Shang’s body trembled.
He understood the hidden meaning behind these words.
His Majesty wanted to make an example out of them.
When the Dragon Slaying Alliance was eliminated, Jiu Xuanji and Lu Zhantang would be frozen.
Other than them, there were also Eunuch Xiao, Cao Hang, and the others.
Zhang Ronghua’s forces in the palace would all be transferred out and sent to remote places, including Zheng Fugui and the others.
The dragon’s eyes flickered.
Emperor Xia’s mind spun quickly as he thought of a countermeasure.
After a long while, he finally spoke.” Please enter the palace, Headmaster!”
Wei Shang realized that his brain wasn’t working.
What was the use of inviting him into the palace at this time?
The matter between Yang Hongling and Qing Lin was almost a foregone conclusion.
To put it bluntly, with the hot-blooded impulsiveness of young people, they would have done everything except for the chastity sand.
“Yes, sir!”
“How’s the investigation of Yang Hao and Ningbai going?” the Xia Emperor asked.
“They haven’t appeared since they entered the Spacetime Forbidden Land!”
“Phew!” The Xia Emperor took a deep breath.
He raised his hand and rubbed his temples.
He felt troubled again.
He shouldn’t have done this.
Their relationship was very good, but at this point, he had no other choice.
The existence of the old teacher had broken the rules and placed him above the imperial power.
Unless the Flame Ancestor made a breakthrough, he would not.
He had been stuck at this step for countless years, and it was useless to be anxious.
This was the only way to ensure that the imperial power was transcendent and that the future Human Emperor would sit on the dragon throne!
Even without the Headmaster of the Academy, with the royal family’s background and the trump cards he had, including the strength of the Xia army and national power, he could still win the war with the Shang Dynasty.
In that case, he would have to pay a huge price.
He couldn’t accept it before, but now he could!
People were forced into a corner and had no way out.
They could make a decision about anything.
There was another point, which was also the most crucial.
For example, in the great war decades ago, the two Majestic Empires mobilized the entire country’s military forces.
All forces participated, including the Fate Academy.
However, the Headmaster never made a move.
He was like a thorn that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time.
“Order people to secretly spread the news in the outside world that the Spacetime Forbidden Land has appeared again!”
Wei Shang could not believe it.
He wondered if he had heard wrongly.
” I didn’t want to come to this either,” the Xia Emperor said coldly.” But I have no other choice in this position.”
He added.
“Make it clean.”
Wei Shang understood that the person who spread the rumors would be executed immediately.
The Xia Emperor once again threw out a heavy bomb.” Ding Yi has acknowledged Zhang Ronghua as his elder brother and is following his lead.
Will Ding Qi help him in secret?”
Boom!
Wei Shang was shocked once again.
He felt his entire body turn cold.
Even the words that came out of his mouth were trembling.” Your Majesty, if Ding Qi really did this, then Xu Cheng ‘an, Yan Bei, Zhao Mu…” Huo Shouguo and even Shen Qingzhi, are they?”
He didn’t finish his sentence, but the Xia Emperor understood!
