Chapter 103 If you dare to kill me, Chen Pingping, I will kill Zhan Doudou! (33)

Nanqing, Imperial Study.

There was only Hong Sixiang by Emperor Qing's side.

"Si Xiang, the Grand Master openly killing someone has never happened in all these years. Wu Zhu has given me a difficult problem!"

"This incident is different from 'Si Gu Jian killing Lin Gong'. This time it is a diplomatic occasion with people from the three countries present, in full view of the public!
Hong Sixiang said, "The four great masters did not take action. This was a tacit understanding between them."

"The Northern Qi State Secretary just made it clear that Ku He wanted revenge, and he wanted to kill the key figures in Daqing!"

Emperor Qing sneered, "He wants to kill one of my generals, and I send you to kill his saint?"

"I'm afraid Ku He will intercept us halfway and ask for a Grandmaster battle, which will be troublesome then."

Hong Sixiang suggested, "Why not announce to the public that Wuzhu is not from Qing? He doesn't care anyway."

Emperor Qing shook his head and said, "Wu Zhu won't care, but if that happens, Fan Xian will be disappointed. If Fan Xian is disappointed, Wu Zhu will become alienated."

"Who do you think Ku He will attack?"

Hong Sixiang frowned and said, "President Chen, the eldest princess, the crown prince, Qin Ye, Prince Yong, and the second prince."

“If Grandmaster Ye Liuyun hadn’t been here, Ye Chong would have been a possibility.”

Emperor Qing patted the back of his chair and said, "Yun Rui and the Crown Prince are in the palace, Ku He dare not act rashly."

"The others... Chen Pingping, Qin Ye, Prince Yong, and the Second Brother."

“If Ku He had any intentions for Qi, he would have killed Chen Pingping.

If I follow my own preferences, I will kill Prince Yong."

"The Grand Master wants to kill people, it's impossible to guard against him!"

The incident of Wu Zhu assassinating Lin Gong happened not long ago. Facts have proven that no matter how many masters there are, they cannot stop a grandmaster.

"How are you doing with what I asked you to do?"

Hong Sixiang bowed and said, "I have already met Master Fan, but he refused to reveal Wuzhu's whereabouts."

"I told him what you said, and he listened to it and promised to restrain Wu Zhu and not to kill people in public again."

Emperor Qing snorted coldly, "Humph! If Wu Zhu kills people in public again, it will completely disrupt my many years of planning!"

Qing Kingdom is in a strong position among the Three Kingdoms, and neither Si Gu Jian nor Ku He will take the initiative to provoke it.

This is the reason why Emperor Qing was able to hide for so many years, and it is also the source of his confidence in daring to make plans.

Wu Zhu openly killed someone, which led to Ku He's revenge, which made Emperor Qing very passive, so he must never let Wu Zhu do such a thing again.

This time, the Grand Master’s action must be stopped in time and must not be allowed to develop and spread.

In Emperor Qing's plan, it is not yet time for the grandmaster to have a decisive battle.

"Fan Xian is seriously injured, but Wu Zhu is not with him. Where can he go?"

Emperor Qing couldn't guess the reason for a moment, so he turned to ask about other people's reactions.

"The letter of credence has arrived for several days. What are the reactions of these people?"

Hong Sixiang said, "The eldest princess and the crown prince are doing as usual and spend most of their time in the palace."

"President Chen and General Qin have both publicly said that whoever Ku He kills will be honored, and it will show who is the most meritorious official in Daqing!"

"The Second Prince also said that if Ku He could hear it, he should kill him immediately and leave Dean Chen and General Qin for Qing."

"His Royal Highness Prince Yong acted as if nothing had happened. He probably thought that Ku He couldn't kill him."

Emperor Qing grinned, "Second brother...he really dares!"

In the Second Prince's Mansion.

The second prince, Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu were eating hot pot and listening to music.

Xie Bian said, "Your Highness, Dean Chen and General Qin both praised you for your courage and bravery!"

Li Chengze shook his hair and showed a confident smile.

"What good is there in killing me? If I'm kept alive, I can fight with the crown prince and let Qing Dynasty waste its resources."

"If Ku He had no problem with his brain, he would definitely kill Dean Chen and General Qin."

"General Qin is older and always dozed off during court. Dean Chen is the most dangerous!"

Fan Wujiu sighed as he read a book, "Your Highness, that's a good idea! Chen Pingping should be the most nervous."

"The officials in the court now admire Your Highness very much!"

Li Chengze continued, "Our Daqing is the strongest country in the world, and Father cannot show weakness to Northern Qi."

"I have already found out that the letter sent back to Northern Qi contained only two words.

'Come and kill!'

Fan Wujiu slapped the table excitedly, "A grandmaster should have such courage.

If you dare to kill me, Chen Pingping, I will kill Zhan Doudou!"

Li Chengze quickly stopped Fan Wujiu's enthusiasm, "You'd better hope that the two Grand Masters will stop and not make things too ugly."

"If Ku He succeeds in his revenge, he will definitely move into the palace to protect their little emperor."

"Although I dare to say it, if the two sides really fight to the death, it will be my turn sooner or later!"

Fan Mansion.

Wu Zhu finally brought back the technique, "Fan Xian, use this technique and you will be able to dissipate the sword intent in a month."

Fan Xian smelled the familiar fragrance and exclaimed, "Uncle, it smells even better this time. Is the injury serious?"

Wu Zhu said truthfully, "I need a year to recuperate, but Ku He is only a breath away."

"Before I leave, I will teach Shadow a few moves and ask him to do his best to protect you."

Fan Xian flipped through the secret book, and his depressed mood suddenly improved a lot. The domineering true energy that he had been practicing since infancy was finally not wasted.

"Uncle, if it weren't for you, I really don't know how many times I would have died."

"You injured Ku He? Then he can't come to Kyoto to take revenge and kill people?"

"Dean Chen should be the most dangerous now. He may be assassinated by Ku He at any time."

Wu Zhu said firmly, "Fan Xian, don't tell anyone about my injury or Ku He's injury."

"I've already appeared in public once, and now I need to hide for a while to recover from my injuries. I can't let anyone find me."

"Miss, please get the key to your box after I recover from my injuries."

Fan Xian knew that Wu Zhu might have some secrets, so he didn't ask any more questions and agreed immediately.

Prince Yong's Mansion.

Jingwei also reported the movements of these people, but Luowang could not find out about Wuzhu and Kuhe.

"Chen Pingping, Qin Ye, and Li Chengze are all very calm."

Li Changan said, "Li Chengze knows that the possibility of him being assassinated is lower than that of the two old guys."

"Qin Ye knows that he is old, and it is not worth it for Ku He to kill him."

"Chen Pingping has long been planning to deal with Emperor Qing. If Ku He really wants to kill him, Chen Pingping will tell Ku He about the plan, and Ku He will not do it."

Jingwei chuckled, "Your Highness is indeed very insightful. So the most dangerous person is Li Chengze?"

Li Changan said calmly, "Wrong, it's me!"

He was a prophet and of course knew Ku He's fanaticism for religion and his devotion to Ye Qingmei.

He was playing the game of descending the spirit in the Temple of Heaven, and Ku He probably had the intention to kill him. But with Li Changan's current cultivation, he was not afraid of Ku He's assassination.

At that time, the two tanky guys would fight for a long time but neither could kill the other.

If Ku He dared to threaten to reveal Li Changan's cultivation level, Li Changan would threaten Ku He to reveal that Zhan Doudou was a girl.

So, Li Changan was not afraid at all.

"After receiving the message from the king, did the Inspection Bureau have any reaction?"

Jingwei replied, "The Inspection Institute has purchased a large amount of paper. It should be the same as Your Highness expected, to publicize Li Yunrui's crimes."

Li Changan put Li Yunrui's plan of colluding with Zhuang Mohan to get rid of Fan Xian in front of Chen Pingping, so that Chen Pingping could deal with Li Yunrui.

Fan Xian was almost deposed, and a huge diplomatic incident occurred because of it. It was all because of Li Yunrui behind the scenes.

In order to vent Fan Xian's anger, to reduce Fan Xian's rivals in Beijing, and to pave the way for Fan Xian, Chen Pingping must deal with Li Yunrui.

The diplomatic envoys of the two countries had left long ago, and Zhuang Mohan was probably already at the border. The exchange of Sean was a foregone conclusion, and Chen Pingping would definitely take action.

If the delegation was still in the capital, after this incident broke out, it would be a small matter for Zhuang Mohan and Yun Zhilan to be detained. Even the agreement between the two parties to exchange Sean might be invalidated.

In that case, Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping's plan to extract the secret from Sean would be ruined.

The next day.

Overnight, the streets and alleys of Kyoto were suddenly filled with flyers about Li Yunrui.

Citizens who saw the leaflets were all talking about it, because what was discussed in it was so big!

In Guangxin Palace, Li Yunrui of course also received the news first.

Master Bai was reading the words on the flyer to Li Yunrui, "...Now there are patriots hiding in Northern Qi. Li Yunrui is a treacherous and cunning person who betrayed the loyal patriots to Northern Qi..."

As he was reading, Master Bai suddenly said nervously, "Your Highness, the flyer said that you and Zhuang Mohan had a private affair!"

"Say you betrayed Yan Bingyun to Zhuang Mohan, so Zhuang Mohan could use Yan Bingyun in exchange for his brother Sean!"

Li Yunrui, who was pounding flower petals, could no longer remain calm. She snatched the flyer and started reading it.

"Nonsense, how could I possibly have a secret relationship with this old man?"

"What the hell is going on? Who is confusing us?"

Li Yunrui was a little panicked. Now that the matter had become so serious, the Inspection Institute would definitely investigate!

More importantly, she didn't know how much the person distributing the flyers knew!
In Prince Yong's Mansion, Li Changan also received the flyer.

On the piece of paper that Li Changan gave to Chen Pingping, he clearly wrote about the existence of the Junshan Society, and also wrote about the process of Zhuang Mohan and Yun Zhilan's assassination of Fan Xian.

However, the leaflets distributed by Chen Pingping did not mention these things, and replaced the transaction of Junshan Society with personal feelings.

In fact, this is easy to understand.

Because, since the establishment of Junshan Society, the Inspection Institute has not known any news about it.

If the Junshan Society is included in the leaflets, Emperor Qing will definitely punish the Inspection Institute severely.

The reason why Chen Pingping used Fan Xian's method of distributing flyers in the original drama was to punish Li Yunrui and vent Fan Xian's anger.

If the news had not been spread so widely, Emperor Qing would not have dealt with Li Yunrui.

Li Changan believed that Chen Pingping would definitely mention the affairs of the Junshan Society in the investigation report to Emperor Qing.

In this way, the Inspection Institute can also gain considerable credit.

If this news gets out, it should be enough to get Li Yunrui in big trouble.

When Li Yunrui had to hand over the financial power of the inner treasury, Emperor Qing had no suitable candidate for the time being, so he could let Lin Wan'er recommend herself.

As for whether it will succeed, it depends on whether Li Yunrui's private establishment of the Junshan Society challenges Emperor Qing's bottom line.

The next day, in the imperial study.

Chen Pingping and Emperor Qing sat opposite each other, with Chen Pingping holding an investigation report in his hand.

"Your Majesty, the Inspection Office has interrogated Guo Youzhi's driver, and the driver did take Zhuang Mohan into the harem."

"What we can conclude now is that there must be a deal between the princess and Zhuang Mohan, and Guo Youzhi is the princess's disciple!"

"In addition, the Inspection Bureau's spies in Northern Qi secretly investigated Tie Xiang's identity. The identity of Uesugi Tiger's closed disciple may be fake."

“The young man named Tie Xiang is related to a killer organization called Junshan Society.

But this organization is very secretive and there is no evidence at present!"

Emperor Qing looked at the memorial with a frown on his face, "Junshan Society? An assassin organization? Junshan is in Daqing!"

"That is to say, Yun Rui and Zhuang Mohan's affair is pure nonsense, but Tie Xiang should be Zhuang Mohan and Shang Shanhu, the young master found by Junshan Society!"

Chen Pingping continued, "The specific content of the transaction between the Princess and Zhuang Mohan is probably only known to them."

Emperor Qing snorted coldly and said, "It's hard to guess. Li Yunrui wants to destroy Fan Xian's true energy and destroy his foundation!"

"Before, destroying his reputation failed, and the assassination attempt failed, and now they are colluding with Northern Qi to do such a thing!"

"She wants to prevent Fan Xian from gaining a foothold in the court, and making him unable to take over the inner treasury!

After all, it’s still the matter of the inner treasury!”

Chen Pingping concealed the fact that Junshan Society was involved with the Grandmaster, because he could potentially use this power for his own benefit.

The reason why he dared to conceal it was because he firmly believed that the only person in the world who could quietly enter the Inspection Institute and put a piece of paper on his face was Wu Zhu!
So, he guessed that Wuzhu heard all these things in the palace.

Wu Zhu told Chen Pingping all these things in order to let him vent his anger on Fan Xian.

As expected, Emperor Qing frowned and asked, "Who scattered the flyers yesterday?"

Chen Pingping stared at Emperor Qing and said firmly, "It must be Wu Zhu's doing!"

In Emperor Qing's heart, he already believed Chen Pingping's answer to about 70%.

Apart from Wu Zhu, who else could eavesdrop on the palace secrets without being noticed?

He shouted to Eunuch Hou at the door, "Let Li Yunrui in!"

At this time, Li Yunrui had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Emperor Qing threw the memorial with the investigation report directly to Li Yunrui, "Look for yourself, what a good thing you have done!"

Li Yunrui picked up the memorial and read it in detail.

When she saw that the Inspection Office had already obtained evidence against Guo Youzhi, her face remained calm.

However, when she saw the three words "Jun Shanhui", her pupils contracted instantly!

There was clearly no mention of Junshan Club on yesterday’s flyer!
Why did Junshan Society appear in the Inspection Institute’s report?
Although, the report only said that Tie Xiang was found through Junshan Society, it did not reveal the fact that Junshan Society had a grandmaster.

However, such an organization is difficult to explain.

Li Yunrui finished reading the memorial and tried to avoid the main point. "Guo Youzhi is indeed my disciple, and I did meet Zhuang Mohan."

"That's because I had a lot of doubts after reading Zhuang's works, so I asked him to answer them."

"My betrayal of Yan Bingyun is pure nonsense..."

She was about to continue speaking when Emperor Qing interrupted her.

"Junshan Society, what's going on? Why can we contact Si Gu Jian?"

Hearing this question, Li Yunrui's heart tightened.

What tricks are these two guys using? There is no connection between Junshan Society and Si Gu Jian in the report!
Chen Pingping subconsciously touched the handle of the wheelchair. I didn’t write that Junshan Society was related to Si Gu Jian!
Wu Zhu wouldn't give a copy of that letter to His Majesty, right? That's impossible!
Then, Your Majesty, how did you know about this?
