The Steward Demonic Emperor - 377. Chapter 377

Above the magnificent court hall, the emperor was dignified and solemn, sitting firmly on the dragon chair, with a pair of bright and cold eyes, faintly glanced down.

The leaders of the eight great families, such as Zhuo Fan and Huang Pu Tianyuan, are all on the left; the important officials of the empire, such as Zhuge Changfeng and Dugu Zhantian, brought Manchu civil and military weapons to the right. In the middle, there is a corpse on display. It is the high priest Yun Xuanji undoubtedly.

And beside it, there was a delicate body kneeling, weeping, but it was sacrificed to the granddaughter, the saint Yunshuang.

Seeing this miserable scene, everyone in the eight schools shook their heads and sighed. The emperor had a panoramic view of everyone, and said with majesty, angrily: “Hmph, dare to act on the high priest of Tianyu, it is lawless and a provocation to the empire. Everyone in the court today is not a high-ranking official or a celebrity. Distinguished families are all people with hands and eyes open to the sky. Now that the high priest is dead, what do you think?”

“Your Majesty, in the opinion of the old minister, although the high priest is a simple one, his life is plain, and the sacrificial mansion is not guarded by many guards, he is after all the power of the Profound Sky Peak. If you want to harm him, very people can do it, it must be What a powerful person does. Especially, being able to take him away and torture him silently, and then send him back. Obviously, this person is so powerful that he is a noble family at the pinnacle of the empire!”

As soon as the emperor’s voice fell, Dugu Zhantian stepped forward and bowed to report, but his cold eyes looked at the people on the left from time to time.

Leng Wuchang glanced at him, snorted softly, and said coldly: “The old Marshal Dugu said so vaguely, it is nothing more than alluding that this matter is related to our Imperial Eight Clan. But, have you forgotten that Tianyu is the most Among the strong forces, in addition to our eight, there are also your four pillars. Especially…the top two…”

“What did you say?”

The pupils stared unconsciously, and Dugu Zhantian roared: “Leng Wuchang, are you suspicious of the old man? Hmph, the old man has always been upright, upright, and standing upright. The high priest used to be kind to the old man, old man. How can you do such a brutal thing that a pig and a dog are inferior to?”

He smiled and shook his head, Leng Wuchang lightly shook the feather fan, and faintly said: “The old marshal must not be angry. I do not intend to target you. I just want you to expand the scope of the investigation. Don’t limit it to us, let the truth be true. Fierce ran away and got away with it!”

“Huh, in short, the high priest has nothing to do with the old man. The old man guarantees his reputation as a lone army. As for who the murderer is, I know in my heart that the old man will get him out!” Dugu Zhan snorted, proudly proud. head.

Leng Wuchang was noncommittal, shaking his head and letting out a laugh, but he was extremely disdainful.

This old man is a good player on the battlefield, but when it comes to fighting for power, he has a big brain. How can anyone who dares to kill the high priest be found out by him?

Just taking this event as an opportunity to involve so many forces and gather together, but it is a great potential to break the current deadlock. It seems that all of this has a pair of invisible hands behind it, which makes people faintly disturbed.

Thinking of this, Leng Wuchang frowned and looked at Zhuo Fan not far away.

However, Zhuo Fan still looked calm and didn’t care at all, as if he was already ready.

The emperor quietly watched the reactions of everyone present, and faintly said: “The case of the high priest is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people, but it should not be suspected of being a nobleman on the premises. Then… saint, I will ask you, Who was the last person the high priest saw?”

“Uh……”

Unable to stop, Yunshuang thought a little, raised his eyes and glanced at Zhuo Fan. Seeing him nodding slightly, he honestly said: “Your Majesty Qi, it is the Luo family’s housekeeper, Zhuo Fan!”

hiss!

I took a breath in my heart, and everyone looked in Zhuo Fan’s direction, their eyes filled with surprise.

Your Majesty, who has just been ordained the world’s No. 1 steward, has been involved in the death of the sacrifice so quickly, and as Dugu Zhantian just said, the sacrifice was killed by a master, Zhuo Fan can do it!

Could it be that… this troubled seedling really made a lot of trouble in the imperial capital?

Everyone has heard of Zhuo Fan’s rumors, it really is where they go, where do they make trouble, the sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid. Whenever there is something wrong, see who kills the devil.

Could it be that he had a quarrel with the high priest and slammed the killer?

Thinking of this, everyone seemed to be completely convinced of this in their hearts. It’s just that this demon king is not good at killing anyone. Killing the high priest is equivalent to being an enemy of the entire empire. It’s really seeking his own way.

For a while, people looked at Zhuo Fan’s eyes, and sighed again and again…

The emperor looked towards Zhuo Fan and said coldly, “Zhuo Fan, is that you?”

“What is me?”

With a raised eyebrow, Zhuo Fan didn’t care at all, and laughed out: “If your Majesty said, the last person to be seen to see the high priest, um…probably me. But if you say, the last person the high priest saw , Or the person who killed the high priest, then it is definitely not me!”

“Slick, how do you prove yourself?” The emperor said coldly with a flick of his eyes.

With a wicked smile, Zhuo Fan shrugged and faintly said: “Is it obvious? I have more witnesses. I hit it off with the high priest. Before we left, he personally sent me away and let Girl Shuang’er arrive. I stayed there for a while. Therefore, when I left the sacrificial mansion, I walked with Ms. Shuang’er. She was by my side throughout the whole process and counted as my first witness. Later it was the second prince, and he tied us. , And then asked Ms. Shuang’er if he has an emperor…”

“It’s OK, it’s OK, I believe it’s none of your business!”

He waved his hand hurriedly, before Zhuo Fan finished speaking, the emperor stopped hurriedly, gritted his teeth, and bitterly in his heart.

Zhuo Fan is obviously taking the second prince’s matter to bet on his own lips, so that he, the emperor, does not trouble him, otherwise he will be even more troublesome.

Imagine that your second son asked the saint to see the emperor’s appearance, always thinking about usurping the throne. What is it like? Moreover, with Zhuo Fan’s cunning, maybe his son was also involved, and the royal family was completely drawn into this muddy water. Even if it lost the initiative, it couldn’t be washed away.

Now in the emperor’s heart, he really wanted to give his two boys a meal, which would really mess with Lao Tzu at the critical moment!

Staring at Zhuo Fan fiercely for a long time, the emperor smiled coldly and nodded slightly: “Steward Zhuo is wise and brave, upright and upright, he shouldn’t do such nasty things.”

Zhuo Fan nodded and smiled happily, his face was calm and cheerful, Zhuge Changfeng and Leng Wu saw this, but secretly laughed.

In fact, they already knew about the second prince, but it was hard to explain. However, Zhuo Fan, as the party concerned, did not have so much scruples. Instead, he grabbed the emperor’s weakness and grasped the initiative.

The emperor, it is already difficult to bring the Luo family in…

“However, Zhuo Fan, when you go, are there anyone else in the Sacrifice Mansion?” Since the Luo family can’t move for a while, engage in the Emperor’s Gate. The emperor’s eyes are slightly narrowed, and his energy is surging.

Zhuo Fan nodded clearly, and couldn’t keep it from knowing it, and said: “Of course, Emperor Pu Tianyuan and Mr. Leng, the masters of the Emperor’s Gate, are visiting guests there. It seems that several people are still arguing!”

Brows trembled unconsciously, Huang Pu Tianyuan and Leng Wuchang looked at each other, their expressions sinking in an instant.

They have a clear conscience, but they are afraid that Zhuo Fan and the emperor will use this to join forces and make a fuss. The emperor also brightened his eyes and nodded secretly, this kid finally said something human.

But before he drank it out in front of Huang Pu Tianyuan and the others, Zhuo Fan said quietly, “But after they quarreled for a while, they were about to leave. They were out of the house before they met me. I quarreled with them again…”

“These are not important anymore!” The emperor waved his hand and sneered.

However, Zhuge Changfeng rolled his eyes, but smiled secretly, stood up suddenly, raised his hand and said, “No, Your Majesty, this is very important, and the suspicion of the Emperor Sect can also be eliminated!”

“Why…” The emperor’s body shook unconsciously with a flick of his brows!

Zhuge Changfeng smiled freely: “Your Majesty, please think about it. At that time, the two masters of the Emperor Pu family were in a rage, and they did not know that there was someone outside. It was the best time to attack the high priest. Without doing it, it can only prove that they really never thought of killing the high priest, so their suspicion can be eliminated!”

“It’s reasonable!” Zhuo Fan raised his brows and nodded slightly, just like a okay person, with an innocent look on his face.

Zhuge Changfeng glanced at Zhuo Fan deeply and laughed blankly.

The emperor was so angry that his brows jumped, his face turned slightly green.

After that, the emperor continued to investigate one by one, but he couldn’t find any clues. In the end, he couldn’t help but let everyone stand by in the mansion without leaving the city, and then just dispersed.

When he got out of the city, Zhuo Fan was walking in front of him leisurely, Leng Wuchang left Huangpu Tianyuan, immediately speeded up his pace to catch up, came to him, slightly clasped his fists and said: “Steward Zhuo, although we are enemies, but just now Thank you so much!”

Knowing the meaning of his words, Zhuo Fan grinned and said non-committal: “Now we are both enemies and we have to coexist. What I did just now was not for you!”

“I understand this, but I have to thank Steward Zhuo for his assistance!”

“Hahaha… When did the two have such a good personal relationship?”

However, before Leng Wuchang paid his respects again, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded in the ears of the two of them, and when they turned their heads, it was Zhuge Changfeng.

“Oh, it turned out to be Prime Minister Zhuge. I also thanked the Prime Minister for his help.”

“Where, it is the introduction of the steward of Zhuo Da, it is good!” Slowly waved his hand, Zhuge Changfeng smiled: “Just now when steward Zhuo spoke about the sacrificial mansion, I heard that he intends to help you get out of the emperor’s gate. , This can be regarded as helping the Luo family. Otherwise, your majesty’s wishful thinking may be about to start.”

“Yes, the emperor took the death of the high priest as an opportunity to recruit all aristocratic families. It was nothing more than finding someone to manage the Luo family and the emperor’s gate from the beginning. It is best to run the two together. Although the two are powerful, they are solid. After the killing of the high priest, the emperor could use all the forces in the court to wipe out the two families together. The two were caught flat-footed and the entire army would be annihilated.”

With his eyes narrowed, Zhuo Fan said coldly: “Even if my Luo family had already escaped at the time, as long as the Emperor’s Gate was killed and sacrificed, the emperor could still let my Luo Family be responsible for destroying the Emperor’s Gate, and we would lose both. At that time, the emperor gave me the title of the world’s number one steward, but it is really useful. After all, you can’t just bear the name and not serve the court, can you?”

“Hahaha… Butler Zhuo is really insightful, the world is trending, he is clear at a glance, admire and admire…” Zhuge Changfeng couldn’t help but clasp his fists and praised sincerely.

Leng Wuchang also nodded and sighed: “With my three talents, if we can join hands and be truly invincible, then the emperor can’t help us at all, it’s a pity…”

“It’s not a pity, Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second. If there is no opponent in the world, wouldn’t it be boring?” Zhuo Fan raised his eyebrows and chuckled.

After Zhuge Changfeng and Leng Wuchang listened to them, they laughed out loud and nodded again and again.

Although the three of them have their own interests, they are still enemies. But the heart of admiration for each other spontaneously arises, especially the mutual cooperation between the courts and the hall, which is seamless, and it makes them feel comfortable for a while.

In the world, how many people can find someone who can cooperate with him so closely?

“By the way, you said…who was the murderer of the high priest?” Zhuge Changfeng said suddenly, holding his beard lightly.

The eyes flashed, Zhuo Fan and Leng Wuchang laughed non-committal.

“Then you need to talk about it. Ever since I heard the emperor ask me who is there after I arrived at the sacrificial mansion, everything has been clear. This imperial capital is still the royal territory…” His eyes narrowed, Zhuo Fan Chang sighed.

When Zhuge Changfeng heard it, they nodded clearly, and their hearts were like Ming Jing…
