That was something that could make a needle drop in a palace!

"You, what did you say?"

"Your Majesty, please allow my son, King Ping of Tang Dynasty, Zhao Qishui to ascend to the throne!"

The Crown Prince was the first to stand up and shout, "Impossible!" Suddenly, he felt that something was amiss. He kneeled down and did not dare to say another word. However, the entire imperial court could hear him clearly, and all of his expressions were different. Zhao Qixuan also stood up and stared straight at the empress, "Empress, don't think that you can create something out of nothing just by looking for a substitute! "Bullsh * t!"

With the support of Lu Fengqiao, Lu Daiwen also stood up, looking at his daughter in disbelief.

"Child, is what you said true?"

The Queen's gaze was resolute as she shouted for the third time, "Your Majesty, please allow the king to ascend to the throne!"

Zhao Qianyuan was filled with dissatisfaction, but he still said something as his doubts turned into confusion.

"Announce!"

Some eunuchs walked out of the hall and shouted loudly, "Prince Xuan Ping, your highness!"

Everyone turned to look at the entrance of the hall, but there was no movement. When that figure clearly appeared outside the hall, the entire imperial court was in shock — the King of Ping, Zhao Qishen!

Hong Xi, the eunuch who was standing next to the emperor, was the first to rush down the stairs. He ran up to Zhao Qisheng, carefully examined him for a moment, and then excitedly knelt down in front of the imperial writing desk.

"Your Majesty is the Prince, absolutely the Prince!"

Zhao Qishui walked to his mother's side amidst the commotion and nodded at her tears filled eyes. He then kneeled and said in a loud voice, "Your son greets royal father! "Thank you for protecting me, your son has returned!"

Zhao Qixuan walked closer in disbelief. After carefully inspecting it, she couldn't help but take two steps back with an expression of disbelief on her face! The Crown Prince sat on the floor with a look of disbelief as he murmured to himself, "I was indeed unaware of Inspector Tian's plot, but after that I received a letter from Inspector Tian informing him that the King had been eliminated. The situation today is beyond my understanding!" Was Inspector Tian lying to him? Xu Huaiyan had fainted from shock, and no one paid any attention to him.

Zhao Qianyuan stood up, walked out of the study, and quickly walked up to Zhao Qizhi. He held his son up with both hands, looking very excited.

"It really is my son!" It was good that he was fine! It's good that you're fine! "

King PingWang's voice was loud enough to be heard in the imperial court, "Imperial Father, my son was murdered by bandits at Lu Jia Ping. He almost died in the armory at the back of the mountain, and it was all thanks to Zhang Zhou and a few other guards who risked their lives to save him! Especially Zhang Zhou. He was loyal, loyal, loyal, and courageous! In order to protect his son, he had been seriously injured and had almost failed to cure him. royal father! I request royal father to uphold justice for this son! "

Zhao Qieshi's appearance gave Zhao Qianyuan a sudden decision. He was extremely superstitious, 'If you survive a great disaster, you will be blessed!' Back then, he had also experienced several narrow escapes before finally being able to ascend to the throne!

"My son, just say what you have experienced in the past few days. Royal father will be the judge for you!"

Zhao Qishui thanked him once again and began to narrate the story to Zhao Qianyuan in front of all the civil and military officials in the imperial court.

"On the night I entered the Lu Jia Ping, I decided to take Zhang Zhou to the Hidden Weapon Cave out of curiosity. Zhang Zhou initially advised me that the night was not safe, and I, Ke Er, was stubborn enough to go … Finally, after escaping through the underwater passage, Zhang Zhou was left alone at the back, unconscious from the impact, and almost died under the water! "

Zhao Qishui narrated the incident in an extremely realistic manner, letting the listeners deeply feel the danger at that time. Zhao Qisheng paused for a moment, and seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he continued, "I originally wanted to return to Lu Jia Ping, but Zhang Zhou predicted that Lu Jia Ping would be in danger, so he sent people to investigate, and sure enough, the layers of soldiers outside Lu Jia Ping are eyeing me like tigers eyeing their prey! I dare not be blind, lest I fall into the hands of the thieves again. When I had no one to rely on, it was also because Zhang Zhou had mentioned to me that if I had any difficulties, I would have to rely on him as a good friend in Liangzhou. This son and a few others would have to travel in the dark for a whole hundred miles, which was a difficult task for me, and this son had to personally experience the toughness my father showed me when he accompanied my father in the war, when he traveled in the Northwest during the Desolation, it wasn't easy! "

Zhao Qianyuan stretched out his hand to pat Zhao Qisheng's shoulder. This was a sincere feeling!

"After all kinds of treatment, Zhang Zhou finally woke up! Everyone, you can think about it for two to three days. If you are hungry, have no food to eat, have no place to rest, escape from death, and travel a hundred li in the night, what kind of appearance would you have! "

Zhao Qi's voice was full of emotion, making those who heard it feel that the situation at that time was extremely critical!

"Zhang Zhou suggested that if the opponent dares to openly plot against me, I must be well-prepared and well guarded. I should let my friends escort my son and his wife, and leave Lianzhou overnight without daring to take the water route. Instead, I should take the road, and only arrive at the capital yesterday after a full twenty days! He had secretly sent people to contact his mother, because he was afraid of an accident, so he did not dare to reveal it to the public. That was the reason why he brought his son into the palace today to meet his father! I hope that royal father can redeem my son and this official will keep this a secret. "

"It's good that you're back. Your mother has been heartbroken because of you these past few days. Remember to repay me well!"

"This son will remember royal father's teachings!"

Zhao Qianyuan looked at the crying empress and said, "Give the empress a seat, sit beside me!"

After comforting the empress, Zhao Qianyuan sat upright behind the Dragon Book table and retracted his imperial majesty.

"Empress, now I shall uphold justice for both of you!"

He looked at the unconscious Xu Huaiyan and said coldly, "Wake him up!"

A guard came over and poured a bucket of cold water on Xu Huai, waking him up.

"What do you have to say?"

Xu Huaiyan knelt down and cried, "Your Majesty, this subject is ignorant, but this subject has been deceived by others! It was just Han Zhen's one-sided speech that fooled this subject. This subject does not have any intention of harming the King! "

"Han Zhen?" Zhao Qianyuan also realized the importance of this witness. At this time, Zhao Qizhen said, "Imperial Father, Han Zhen is the brother-in-law of Master Xu Huaiyan. The two of them did not talk about evil things in the past. On this trip south, it was this Han Zhen from Phoenix Cry Restaurant in Phoenix Cry Prefecture. He purposely provoked conflict between his subordinates and the Flying Flood Dragon Gang, causing over a hundred deaths and nearly injuring his son. It was Zhang Zhou who grasped the crux of the matter, allowing this son of mine to understand the situation. This matter, Uncle Chen, also knows! "

Lu Fengqiao nodded and admitted this matter!

Zhao Qisheng continued, "Originally, this subject wanted to not be in a hurry to capture him, so that we could keep him safe and see if there is anything amiss behind his back. I didn't think that Han Zhen would join forces with Liangzhou's General Soothing Tian Patrol and Lu XingSan of the Lu Family to kill my son at Lu Jiaoping!"

"Your Highness, although Han Zhen is this subject's brother-in-law, he has never been close to him. Moreover, his sister has already been dead for more than two years. This subject really doesn't know anything about his actions!"

"Hahaha, Master Xu, you think that just because Han Zhen disappeared, he could die without a proof? Father, that Han Zhen did not disappear. Instead, Zhang Zhou was worried that he would be silenced, so he had his friend spend a huge sum of money to bribe Tian Xun's subordinates to secretly arrest Han Zhen. Just yesterday, that Han Zhen had already been secretly escorted to the capital, and had told everyone about his crimes! Han Zhen had received Xu Huaiyan's instruction from the very beginning of the line, which led to the incident at Phoenix Cry Restaurant! Han Zhen even told Xu Huaiyan to send a secret letter to him, asking him to collude with Lu Xing San. Han Zhen saw with his own eyes that the bandits had sealed off the hidden weapons' cave, and then followed General Tian Patrol and Lu Xing San's instructions to capture Zhang Zhou and Zhang Xing Yu! It was the truth that the three of them intended to get rid of this son of theirs, destroy Cao Yi, and destroy the Lu family in order to kill three birds with one stone! The people who had sealed the cave entrance were sent by Inspector Tian! This is Han Zhen's testimony! "

With that said, he took out Han Zhen's testimony and handed it over to Zhao Qianyuan.

Xu Huanyi knew that he would no longer have any chance of survival. He was already paralyzed with fear and could not speak a single word, as if he were a dead man.

Zhao Qishui looked at the pale and composed Princess Linlang standing at the side before turning to Zhao Qianyuan and saying, "This son also suspects that the person who burned down the forest and hid Lu Xing San was none other than Princess Linlang!"

Zhao Qixuan glared at him and said, "Don't you dare speak nonsense! What evidence do you have to slander me? "

"I just doubt it!" Can't I raise doubts? " He turned to Zhao Qianyuan and continued, "As long as Imperial Father reviews the field and promises to protect his family, it won't be difficult for him to personally answer all of your questions!"

Zhao Qixuan had nothing to say, but her eyes were filled with panic. It was obvious at a glance!

Zhao Qianyuan already knew in his heart that when he interrogated Inspector Tian, it would not only involve Princess Lin Lang, but the Crown Prince's slip of the tongue just now was clearly heard by everyone in the imperial court.

"Don't worry, my son. I won't let a sinful person get away with this!" Men, arrest this bastard and throw him into the prison. arrest all the members of the family. Don't take any of them away. The crown prince and Lin Lang would not return to the palace. They would remain in the palace for further investigation! If Han Zhen is handed over to the Ministry of Law, I want the results within three days! Whoever dares to practice favoritism and defraud shall commit the same crime as the perpetrator, and shall not be forgiven! "

After contemplating for a moment, he continued, "Cao Yi, get up. Now that the truth is out, your student has once again impressed me. As a teacher, it is indeed good that you are able to bring up such a student. Receive a temporary position as the Left Attendant of the Ministry of Magic. Lu Fengqiao's talents are of great use, he is qualified to serve as the right-hand man of the household. As for the right-hand man, he is old.

He was the right-hand man of the Ministry of Revenue and had another identity. He was one of the Crown Prince's teaching teachers!

Even though he had only taken down one Ministry of Revenue's right-hand man, everyone knew that the crown prince had only just begun his calamity!

Zhao Qieshen also told a lot of secrets. That day, they walked less than forty miles before they were received by Zhen Jiu and his company. With the help of Zhang Xingzhi's only Life Continuing Gold Core, Zhang Zhou finally made it to the Duan Clan Castle. With the help of Duan Jidao, it took him three days to wake up.

In the meantime, Zhang Xingzhi and Yang Xiaolang immediately brought out their swords after hearing Zhang Zhou's story about Duan Shiji. They were going to give them to Duan Shiji as a token of their gratitude, making him feel as if he had finally seen a rich man in this life. However, Duan Shijiu refused, because Zhang Zhou had promised him that he would do everything in his power to give him two long swords that would suit his needs.

In response to Zhang Zhou's request, Duan Zhong led the elites of his subordinates, led by Zhen Jiu, and quietly made their way back to Lu Jia Ping. Zhang Zhou wasn't sure who was the enemy and who was the friend. He just asked Duan Ling Tian to take the opportunity and get the details. How hard could it be to bribe and pacify the few field officers who had started their career in Liangzhou? He actually knew quite a bit about it! Duan Shiji and Zhen Jiu were experienced martial artists. They knew the importance of Han Zhen and thus, Duan Shiji personally paid a hefty sum of money to bribe one of Inspector Tian's trusted aides to get Han Zhen out. During this time, they also witnessed the burning of the forest and the rescue of Lu Xingsan. Zhen Lao Jiu knew some of Princess Linlang's secrets, so he stopped Duan Jiu's adventurous plans and only brought Han Zhen back to Duan's castle!

They did not travel overland. Instead, they brazenly rode the boats from Golden Silver Lane, following behind Pei Yuanzhao's team as they headed back to the capital. They were just trying to protect Golden Silver Lane!

Yang Xiaoluo didn't know the details of the strange situation that had occurred in the karst cave. He knew that Zhang Xingzhi had only said that Zhang Zhou was injured from the collision and that Zhang Zhou had no intention of divulging it even after he woke up.

The reason why they did not enter the palace together with the Peace King was because there was no need to. Furthermore, even though Zhang Zhou had awakened, he was still severely injured! He had already ordered Zhang Xing's escort to return to Hezhou quietly!

Before Zhang Zhou returned, the top management of the Nine Regions' business was indeed frightened for a few days. However, Zhang Zhou told her to send a handwritten note to Guan Yu-niang in advance: "I'm fine. Don't worry, wait for my return!"

Guan Yu-niang promptly summoned the upper echelons to explain the situation, demanding that they be aware of the situation and keep it a secret. After all, there weren't many people who knew that Zhang Zhou was the head of the Nine Regions' business, so the Ping Wang incident didn't have much of an impact on the Nine Regions' business. Through this matter, Old Yellow and Feizi had even joined hands to deal with a few managers who harbored ill intentions.

When the Empress learned that Zhang Zhou had returned to Hezhou, she immediately sent Fu Xiang to visit it. In the past few days, it was as if he had been tormented by heaven and hell, and could not bear to look back. Fortunately, his two disciples had managed to bring good fortune to themselves.

He thought that Zhang Zhou had been injured by a hidden weapon. Fortunately, Guan Yu-niang and Daoist Yunfeng stopped him, and informed him that this was the method to save his life that Zhang Zhou and Daoist Yunfeng had discussed, so he was slightly relieved, but he refused to leave. After laughing for a while, he said that the heavens were on his side, and after crying for a while, he said that he had a slim chance of survival. Fu Xiang was so scared that he didn't know what to do. He almost fainted!

After Zhang Zhou spat out the blood and took a short break, his spirit was actually much better than before. Only then did everyone who was accompanying him feel at ease.

Using Daoist Yun Feng's words, he suffered heavy injuries this time, and many of his meridians had already ruptured. It was all thanks to the extremely strong Jindan that Zhang Xing used and the miraculous effects of the Jindan. It had actually forcefully healed his damaged meridians, which saved his life. But because the effects of the medicine were too strong, and the Qi channels in Zhang Zhou's body were weak, they were unable to release the medicine normally and thus formed an internal silt. Now, he could use the silver needles to repair the bruises and allow the medicine's effects to function normally. Zhang Zhou himself felt a lot more at ease.

To his own wonderful perception, Yun Feng's reply was: It's very similar to the buddhist mysticism! He should be able to realize the impossibility of martial arts training, but it was different from the martial arts level that he had calculated himself! In the end, if there was a chance, he would have to find the great Buddhist virtue to explain it to him.
