It was already late at night in the former residence of the Huangfu clan in Luoyang, but soldiers and horses from all walks of life were still coming in and out, in an endless stream.
After the accident happened during the enthronement ceremony during the day, the imperial court dispatched 18 armies to spread hundreds of miles around the imperial city, trying their best to search for the traces of Bawang and his gang.
At the same time, the loss of the new palace is still being counted and rescued, and the mansion of the Huangfu family is full of mourning.
A group of royal relatives wept around the corpses of their dead relatives, or wept bitterly because of serious injuries and disabilities, insulting and cursing the damn villain.
Huangfu Wuji was wearing a dragon robe, sitting on a chair, constantly listening to the reports from various people sent out, his expression was extremely gloomy, and he didn't say a word.
"Your Majesty, our soldiers from the Tianjing Mansion searched in multiple ways, and captured all suspicious-looking people who approached the imperial city, but there is still no trace of the villain Gu Chen."
A leader of Tianjing Mansion said tremblingly.
"My lord Hadeshen, my spies from all over the Hadeshen Palace have sent an urgent secret report. Since the Overlord made a big fuss during the day, there have been rebellions of varying degrees in various places in Kyushu!"
A Hadeshen guard from Hadeshen Palace had a serious expression on his face.
Huangfu Wuji listened quietly, clenched his fists subconsciously, and the whole hall was filled with a gloomy murderous aura, making everyone feel like walking on eggshells for a while, lest the new emperor would vent his anger on them in his rage.
At this time, the bamboo hat man strode in from outside the hall, Huangfu Wuji looked up at him with a blank expression.
"How's the investigation going?" he asked.
The bamboo hat man's eyes were flickering with ghost fire, and his tone was serious. "Reporting to Mr. Mingshen, my subordinates have carefully investigated the root cause of the explosion in the palace, and have also inspected the corpses of many members of the royal family. It can be clearly judged that Gu Chen has a large number of amazingly powerful heavy weapons on hand."
"The imperial palace is heavily guarded. The reason why it was destroyed in an instant is because the enemy has placed amazingly powerful forbidden weapons in different directions of the imperial palace! The lethality of these forbidden weapons is very rare, and the concealment is extremely strong. The weapon master said that even if they searched the palace in advance, it would be difficult to find the existence of these forbidden weapons."
"As for the forbidden talisman that killed a large number of royal children in the Imperial City Square, the production process is also extremely delicate and complicated. This kind of forbidden talisman can control the power of the explosion within a very small range, bringing perfect lethality, but at the same time It's too broad."
When the bamboo hat man said this, his tone paused. "Considering the rare lethality of these weapons, and the fact that your fourth son, Huangfude, is dead, my lord, I'm afraid..."
"I'm afraid that evil obstacle has obtained the Armory of the King of Weapons!"
Huangfu Wuji gritted his teeth and said, he had guessed the truth of the matter.
"That's right, everyone in the world has rumored that whoever wins the weapon king's armory can win the world. Now that the armory has fallen into the hands of the overlord, the situation is very bad!"
The man in the bamboo hat analyzed, "And today the Overlord appears by means of space projection. As far as I know, he is not proficient in space magic, which means that there are experts in this field around him. With such a person, it is very difficult to catch him." promote."
"Other than that, we don't know anything about his companions today. He is not fighting alone. Maybe some remnants of the Heavenly Court have already gathered under him."
"Now the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. The Overlord is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet. We need to be careful to guard against what he said is the Heavenly Dao Killing Order. Moreover, today's events will inevitably cause some very bad effects. Various forces may be affected by this Just around the corner, adults should make preparations early."
The man in the bamboo hat had a long talk and analyzed the current situation clearly, which made Huangfu Wuji restrain his anger a little bit and calm down.
"It seems that this son must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise he will ruin our event!"
His IQ regained the high ground, and his eyes flickered. "Send me an order to call all the famous life masters in Kyushu, and I will use the fastest speed to divination Gu Chen's position!"
"My lord, have you forgotten? Cangtian Bagu has a special physique. Not only you, but even Gu Chen, it is difficult for others to deduce everything related with fate."
The man in the bamboo hat reminded.
"Of course I know this. I can't figure out his position. I can always calculate the position of others, right? For example, his mother, Shen Yushu! As long as he finds his mother, it's just a matter of time before he is caught!"
Huangfu Wuji smiled coldly.
Originally because he had needs for various schools of Confucianism, Shen Yushu was just a woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, and he never cared about her.
But now that the remnants of the Gu family have completely enraged him, even if he does whatever it takes, he will find him out.
And this Shen Yushu will be a breakthrough!
"Jie Jie Jie, my lord is clever, this is indeed a solution. But since the Jiang family was destroyed, those fate masters are not very obedient, and the level of obedient fate is not very good, I am afraid it will take a lot of time."
The man in the bamboo hat smiled strangely.
When Huangfu Wuji mentioned this matter, the haze on his face gathered again. He snatched the astrologer from the old prophet of the Jiang family. He already possessed the ability to predict the future and turn disasters into fortunes, but he was sealed by the God of Heaven with the Book of Heaven. this ability.
If it wasn't so, why would there be any need to rely on the power of other fortune tellers right now, and even the ability of magic calculation is still there, the trick played by Gu Chen today is impossible to succeed, and he has already taken it down in advance!
"Try to speed up, I want to catch that kid as soon as possible!"
Huangfu Wuji was upset, he waved his hand, and asked the man in bamboo hat to go down to work, and he ordered his subordinates to call Shen Xudong in.
When Shen Xudong stepped into the hall of the Huangfu family, the eyes of many members of the Huangfu family present were red.
"Father, Shen Xudong is the grandfather of the remnants of the Gu family, he should be arrested! Use him to force that bastard to show his face!"
Huangfu Ren who was present gritted his teeth and said, he was seriously injured, especially his face was completely destroyed, and his appearance was shocking when he spoke.
However, he is like this, the situation is not bad, unfortunately, he is already dead.
His words aroused the hatred of many people in the clan, and they all spoke up and demanded that Shen Xudong be taken down!
"Your Highness the third prince is serious. Although Gu Chen is related to the old man by blood, the emperor knows best that he has nothing to do with my Shen family since he was a child. My Shen family is loyal and dedicated to assisting the new emperor. Your Majesty knows everything!"
Shen Xudong bowed deeply to Huangfu Wuji.
Huangfu Wuji looked at the old guy with an uncertain expression.
To be honest, after what happened today, even the extermination of the Shen family would not be able to solve the hatred in his heart, but right now he has just stabilized his position and urgently needs the help of various schools of Confucianism.
Shen Xudong is very majestic in the court, because with him, he, the new emperor, can quickly gain a firm foothold from government orders to systems, from the central government to the local government.
He knew very well that the old man was not satisfied with him, but because he cared more about the peace and tranquility of the people in the world, he was willing to cooperate with him.
This kind of sour Confucianism that puts the world first in everything is the fundamental reason why he never doubted the relationship between the other party and the remnants of the Gu family.
