The Rescue Of The Tragic Villain Is In Progress!

A6 C191 - The Ending...

A group of people knelt in the hall, each giving increasingly absurd and ridiculous reasons. Especially when Zhou Xiqiong mentioned the two words "Ye Shengchen," the Emperor felt like he had heard a fantasy tale. He had a throbbing headache, and his head felt like it was about to explode. His brows furrowed tightly as he exclaimed, "Ye Shengchen?! Wasn't he supposed to have disappeared from the Jianghu several years ago? How could he suddenly reappear?!"

Zhou Xiqiong also found the situation strange and said in a solemn tone, "He wore a mask, and I couldn't see his face clearly. If it weren't for a momentary exposure of his martial skills during the fight, I'm afraid I wouldn't have recognized him. I have no idea what has happened in these years, but Ye Shengchen has secretly joined the Yan Kingdom and is now serving Ji Fan."

Zhao Su seemed to have guessed something but remained silent.

Yin Pojia, who now regarded Zhou Xiqiong as a traitor, said, "Ye Shengchen has been missing for decades, how could he suddenly reappear? You and he are both of the same rank; you should have been evenly matched. How did you end up heavily injured and defeated?!"

He was not of the same rank, and there might have been a considerable disparity in their martial skills among the various sects. To others, losing a couple of moves might not be significant, but for a skilled martial artist, losing half a move could be fatal.

Zhou Xiqiong had been defeated by Ye Shengchen twice, and she was already feeling uneasy. Upon hearing Yin Pojia's sarcastic remarks, she directly used her palm to strike him several meters away without touching him. There was a dull thud as Yin Pojia's back slammed into a coiled dragon golden pillar. He paled and coughed up blood.

Everyone was shocked by what they witnessed.

Zhou Xiqiong coldly brushed her sleeves and said, "Yin Pojia, if you don't believe it, you can go to the Northern Mountain and try to capture him. Ye Shengchen's martial skills have improved over the past few years, and one move from him could end your life. I've never been one to tolerate nonsense; you should refrain from making baseless accusations in front of His Majesty. You seem to be the one who fears stability and peace in the kingdom!"

After saying this, she looked at the Emperor with a frosty gaze and directly bowed to him, saying, "I take my leave!"

Xuanyuan Qing, who had not yet revealed his true abilities, was Zhou's secret weapon in the Zhou Kingdom. Even if she was disrespectful in the court, no one dared to blame her. On the contrary, the Emperor had to comfort her kindly, saying, "Zhou Xiqiong, you are seriously injured. Go find a physician and don't accompany me in the next few days."

Zhou Xiqiong thanked the Emperor and turned to leave.

Yin Pojia, in a disheveled state, got up from the ground, realizing that he had lost both his personal dignity and his public image. Seeing that the Emperor's expression remained unchanged, he immediately knelt and apologized, saying, "I apologize for my lack of decorum in the court, Your Majesty. However, the matter of the Yan Crown Prince's departure from the capital is not simple. Your Majesty must thoroughly investigate it. Nalan Chun has always been close to the Crown Prince, and with Princess Yanian, these three individuals are clearly colluding in the shadows. If they are not punished, it will be difficult to quell the rumors!"

Zhao Su thought that Rong Xuan's guess was accurate, as Yin Pojia had indeed seized upon this matter to make his case. She raised her hand to bow to the Emperor and said, "Father, I swear that I have had no contact with Ji Fan, and I have not colluded with him. It is truly absurd."

After a pause, she used Rong Xuan's teachings to question Yin Pojia, "You are now pointing fingers at His Majesty's own son, daughter, and nephew, accusing them of treason and calling for severe punishment. According to the Zhou Law, the punishment for treason is to execute nine generations of the perpetrator's family. Are you suggesting that you should also put Father in prison and execute him? Father's family has four generations, Mother's family has three, and Wife's family has two. You keep accusing Prince Nalan Chun as a traitor, but I've heard that you, General Yin..."
