Chapter 143 The scene is big (please subscribe)
"Grand Master." A crowd of people gathered at the city gate. Just now, the Kyoto garrison temporarily stopped people from passing through the city gate. A crowd of people came out to greet them. Everyone knew who they were welcoming. Ye Chong was still very famous, especially among the people who came to greet him, some of them directly shouted to welcome the Grand Master.
Many people also felt that they had something to talk about. The concept of a grandmaster who could defeat an entire nation alone has been known to everyone in the world for decades. Seeing such a person in real life is naturally worth talking about.
The arrival of the Grand Master in Kyoto also made many high-ranking officials feel at ease. They knew from their own channels that Si Gu Jian and Ku He were coming to Kyoto, so they would be nervous. Now with Ye Liuyun and Hong Sixiang, it was two against two, and they could basically not win a fight.
Ye Mansion.
"I've seen Iron Hand. The only difference between you and him is the true energy. Wan, you are a little obsessed with genius and family glory." Ye Liuyun was instructing Ye Wan.
There was no trace of arrogance on Ye Wan's face. This was his lifelong goal. After seeing Ye Liuyun waving his hand, he naturally stepped back.
Ye Liuyun had seen Tie Shou take action, so Ye Wan did not dare to doubt it, or rather, he did not doubt it. Tie Shou was one of the strongest men in the world, but he was far inferior to the grandmaster.
After Ye Wan left, Ye Chong also paid his respects to Ye Liuyun and did not tell Ye Liuyun anything about the Ye family. How could he not know if others did not know? Ye Liuyun did not have such deep feelings for the Ye family.
He only knew that this time when Ye Liuyun returned, his Ye family would benefit a lot. This was the deterrent power of the Grand Master.
I have just received visiting cards from many families in Kyoto. Who doesn’t want to meet the Grand Master?
He didn't know that Ye Liuyun was already pretty good. At least he still had some regard for his family in his heart. If it were a grandmaster, he wouldn't be so humane.
royal palace.
"Your Highness, the grandmaster of the Ye family has entered the capital." The princess received the message from the palace maid and waved her hand, thinking.
She naturally knew that Ye Liuyun was in Kyoto. She used her connections to call him back. Now that he was in Kyoto, he should know the information about Si Gu Jian and Ku He, so it was good for him to show up on his own initiative.
When Ku He and Si Gu Jian arrived, she was also nervous. In fact, these two grandmasters were also members of her Junshan Society. However, the Junshan Society was just a platform. She could control ordinary people, but not the grandmasters. Only Ye Liuyun could use personal connections to drive them.
Only something like the destruction of the Grand Master of Nanqing could attract the actions of Ku He and Si Gu Jian.
"Your Highness, there is another rumor, but it has only spread in a small area and I don't know whether it is true or not." The maid replied.
"profound."
"It is rumored that Duke Wu has a crush on Madam Liu from the Fan Mansion because of a favor they had in their childhood. We have already investigated and found that there is a gambling house that has been sealed off by the Six Gates. With a signature from Madam Liu, the seal can be lifted in three days. The man behind the gambling house is the son of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice." The palace maid only talked about the facts and did not express her own understanding.
"Since this happened, there must be another culprit behind the scenes. Never mind, you should also take action on this matter." After the palace maid left, the princess thought about this matter. Was it the intention of the God Catcher or Shen Qingzhou to unseal the Six Gates? This was very important.
Control Yuan.
"The Grand Master is coming to the capital." Chen Pingping was also thinking about something. It seemed that it was certain that the four great masters would gather in Kyoto this time.
Thinking about the fact that Emperor Qing had not yet celebrated Shen Qingzhou's success, and the four great masters' visit to the capital, he suddenly thought of a possibility, and it might be true.
"Pass it on. The Six Gates plan to announce the top ten lists at the celebration banquet." With just one sentence from Chen Pingping, the Supervisory Commission started to operate.
……
"Have you heard? The ranking will continue soon. I heard that the celebration banquet will be held. Then we will know who is the number one in the world." "Suddenly it feels meaningless. The grandmaster is back. Can the number one stand up to the grandmaster? Besides, isn't it basically determined? Duke Wu, didn't he escape from Grandmaster Ku He?"
Within six doors.
"Master Catcher, the people who spread the rankings were all ordinary people, and we haven't found the person with ulterior motives yet."
"Go down." The God Catcher didn't even need to think about it. In Kyoto, he couldn't think of anyone else with such ability except the Overwatch Council. It seemed that he had to report to the Duke.
In the palace.
"It's time to hold the celebration banquet for Duke Wu. The Dongyi and Northern Qi envoys will soon be entering the capital, so let's hold it together and send an invitation to the Grand Master of the Ye family." After receiving the message, Emperor Qing said directly. Chen Pingping understood his thoughts very well.
"Also, this banquet should be held for the enjoyment of the people. All officials can come with their relatives." Emperor Qing waved his hand and Eunuch Hou withdrew.
Emperor Qing thought of the information reported by the Supervisory Council, that the Second Prince's subordinates secretly walked Shen Qingzhou and Liu Ruyu. Although it was a bit petty, it seemed that his second son was very afraid of Shen Qingzhou.
As for whether it was true or not, he didn't believe it at all. However, he could use it. He had enough military force, but he used too many conspiracies, which was a bit petty for an emperor.
The Supervisory Office is truly omnipresent. Right now, apart from the top brass of the Six Gates, no one has entered Yunmeng Villa for the time being, but they are always looking for an opportunity.
Yunmeng Villa.
The queen is happily listening to the storyteller telling a story about the most popular detective cases of the day, the Four Famous Detectives.
That's right, they are the Four Famous Constables of the Liushenmen. They are highly skilled in martial arts, young and kind-hearted. They truly plead for the people and have a very good reputation throughout the world. Just put together the stories of solving cases, and then add some more mythological elements, and it becomes a story.
For example, at this moment, Zhui Ming is chasing the Meteor Seven. The Meteor Seven are a gang of thieves. They stole a priceless night pearl from the prefect's house and were chased by Zhui Ming all over the world. It is very fantastic.
It was so well-made. The man who was in charge of the matter got the pearl back right away, and also uncovered the magistrate's corruption and abuse of power in just half a day. It took half a day just to talk about it, all surrounding a night pearl.
In fact, when it comes to night-shining pearls, who in the world has more than the queen? Shen Qingzhou collected the best ones from the grassland himself and gave them to her, but she still listened with gusto.
The palace is different from the outside world. There is too little entertainment in the palace. For example, if you invite a storyteller, the empress dowager will talk to you.
It’s not like now, where she doesn’t have to think about it at all, there are a bunch of people waiting to tell her stories.
"Report to the Duke, there is an urgent matter from the Six Gates."
Shen Qingzhou looked at the letter sent by the God Catcher and breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn't left Yunmeng Villa in the past few days, and so many things had happened. Never mind. Since that's the case, then he'll do as they wish.
Two things. One is that someone spread the news that the Six Gates’ results would be announced at the celebration banquet. This sounded like there was nothing wrong with it, but combined with the second information, the Northern Qi Dongyi envoys also welcomed them, and the Ye family’s grandmaster was planning to attend.
This is a general, and it's a bit funny for you to promote yourself as the best in the world when a grandmaster is present.
There was another small matter. Someone spread the story about him and Liu Ruyu. Shen Qingzhou didn't think about who did it. It could have been Emperor Qing, the Second Prince, or Chen Pingping. Even the Crown Prince, if it wasn't a worm in his stomach, it could have been the eldest princess as well.
Soon, someone from the palace came and brought Emperor Qing's oral order that the Queen must attend the banquet. It seemed that everyone in the harem would go. Shen Qingzhou was a little confused. What was he trying to do?
