The affairs of Empyrean Terminus Palace would change the future of the Great Yan Dynasty.
What happened in the Gao Family casino would change the future of the Great Yan River.
When Skinny Du and his men began their siege on the east side of the city, the attack on the west side of the city also blew the horn.
Compared to how thin and weak Du Xiangyang and the other two were, carrying hundreds of tough men, s.n.a.t.c.hing away the territories as if they were rotten weeds, the scale of the war here was a little bit smaller, but it was more dangerous.
However, when An Zeng seized the fourth casino, he discovered that the Gao Family actually did not resist at all.
Thus, An Zaiyue was keenly aware of the Gao Clan's intentions, so he ordered his men to increase their momentum and then left alone in the direction of Heavenly Temple.
At the same time.
In the brocade palace, Empress Dowager Su's face was flushed red as she looked at the majestic man standing before her.
""Does this person really work?""
she asked the man standing beside her.
The newly promoted head eunuch of the brocade palace, Zhen Dao, smiled obsequiously. ""Empress Dowager, this person is a disciple who has been diligently trained by the martial inst.i.tution. It is said that his cultivation potential is nine stars.""
Furthermore, according to the Martial Arts Academy's internal report, the Martial Arts Academy had sent this person to the third floor to get in touch with that purple-rank cultivation technique.
""If they really did fight, Feng Xiuzhu would not be his match.""
Empress Dowager Su looked once more at the young man standing beside the muscular man, an indecipherable look in her eyes.
""What a pity.""
Empress Dowager Su looked at the two young men, her fingers brus.h.i.+ng across Nie Qing's majestic chest. ""Such a person would be very useful if he stayed by my side.""
Zhen Dao, of course, knew what Empress Dowager Su was planning. He lowered his head and said, ""But if we use it elsewhere, it might be more useful … With the thoughts of the old madam from the Gao Family, I don't think she'll be able to find anything from the Heavenly Temple.""
Even if the empress dowager were to send Lu Tianghui and Zhao Yanshan over, there probably wouldn't be any result.
""But these two... both have a chance.""
Zhen Dao held a cloth bag in his hand. Inside the bag were many thin silver needles.
At this moment, there were at least several tens of silver needles sticking out of Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhu's bodies.
Empress Dowager Su asked, ""Your method works?""
Zhen Dao smiled, ""Empress Dowager, don't worry. This is a secret technique pa.s.sed down from the ancestors.""
Back in the days when the Great Yan Dynasty was founded, the King of Yan had an army that dared to die.
Not knowing pain, not knowing fear, he only had to rush forward in one breath.
If it hadn't been for the Death Army, the Great Yan Empire might still have been a few years late.
The ancestor of this servant was one of the people who helped the King of Yan create the Dare Army.
""Moreover, it is precisely because of this secret Silver Needle Technique that these soldiers are so powerful that it makes people fear them.""
Empress Dowager Su nodded. ""Since you're so confident, then I'll leave it to you.""
But you know very well what happens to you if you mess up my business. ""
Zhen Dao quickly said: ""Empress Dowager, don't worry, even if I had ten thousand guts, I wouldn't dare to lie to you.
Only my servant's family knows how to use this secret technique. As long as the secret technique succeeds, these people will be controlled by my servant until they die.
If a servant puts a needle in their body, the needle will remain in their acupuncture points.
At the same time, he used the Gu worm technique to control their thoughts, so that they would become real puppets. ""
Empress Dowager Su sighed. ""If I'd promoted you earlier, there wouldn't have been so much trouble.""
Zhen Dao said: ""Actually, this servant had already told Li Changlu, but if Li Changlu wanted to, he wouldn't tell the empress dowager.""
Because if the Empress Mother were to use a servant, he would lose his favour.
But I have no means of seeing you, Majesty, so I can only let Li Changlu report to you.
So now, your servant will be able to serve you.
If he had given the king the needle earlier, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.
""Fortunately, it's not too late …""
Empress Dowager Su reluctantly glanced at Nie Qing. ""He's really a good man. It'd be a pity if he died.""
However, he still had to put more emphasis on the important matters … The people who had Mu Changyan now could basically be mobilized to move him out.
Fang Daozhong and w.a.n.g Kaitai, who had not shown up earlier, were surrounding and attacking the Gao Family's people while the Gao Family's people were trying to kill Mu Changyan in Empyrean Terminus Palace. This situation was truly chaotic.
""Presumably, Zhuge Liuyun is the only one by Mu Changyan's side now, so this is the best chance.""
Zhen Dao said: ""Your servant will arrange it now.""
Empress Dowager Su waved her hand. ""No … I want to go in person.""
She put on her clothes. ""Let everyone go, kill all the traitors of the Gao Family who dare to a.s.sa.s.sinate the King.""
If you let Feng Xiu bring him back to the Taishang, those bull-nosed people won't suspect him.
Feng Xiuzhi's mission was to steal all the secret techniques of the Taishang Taoist temple so that she could control them in the future.
If Nie Qing were to head over to Heavenly Temple right now and kill a few people, Mu Changyan wouldn't have any doubts about him. Originally, Mu Changyan trusted this Nie Qing.
Therefore, once Nie Qing gets close to Mu Changyan, the following matters will be much easier to deal with. ""
Zhen Dao nodded, ""Your servant obeys.""
He opened a jade bottle and poured out two identical worms. They looked like several cups of ants, but they had eight legs.
He pinched a bug and placed it beside Nie Qing's nose. That bug immediately crawled into Nie Qing's nose through his eyes.
After a short moment, Nie Qing started to tremble violently.
Empress Dowager Su watched from the side, her face pale.
Women always had a resistance to insects, even the most beautiful insects.
""You have to hurry. Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhi have already disappeared for quite some time already. We can't let those powerful ox noses over at the Supreme Palace become suspicious.""
Zhen Dao lowered his head: ""This servant will be fine.""
He put another bug in his hand, and after a moment of silence, frowned and swallowed.
Then, he also began to twist just like Nie Qing, appearing exceptionally pained.
A few minutes later, Zhen Dao calmed down first.
He looked down at the insect repellent and made sure he was there.
""Empress Dowager, your servant can't leave the brocade palace. I have to control them here.""
There is a very special connection between the two Gu, I can see everything that Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhi saw and then remotely control these two people to do their work.
""Controlling the two Gu is my current limit, so please do not be disturbed.""
Empress Dowager Su said, ""You only need to do your own things. I promise no one will disturb you.""
Zhen Dao sat down on the ground, then started to take out the other two worms. One of them went into Feng Xiuzhu's nose, and the other he swallowed.
After waiting for a while, Feng Xiuzhu's expression became stiff.
Zhen Dao reached out his hand and pressed it in the air. The silver needles on Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhu's bodies entered their skin.
The silver needles actually coiled around each other, forming a spiral that controlled the limbs of Nie Qing and Feng Xiusheng.
""Go!""
Zhen Dao let out a light shout and Nie Qing and Feng Xiuxiu immediately turned around and walked outside.
Empress Dowager Su couldn't help but look at Zhen Dao in a new light as she watched the two leave.
She took a deep breath, knowing that this was the crucial moment.
Actually, she didn't want to kill Mu Changyan. At the very least, it wasn't the right time yet.
If Mu Changyan was really dead, those people definitely wouldn't allow him to become the ruler of this country.
Therefore, Mu Changyan needed to be alive before she could completely get rid of the families that were hindering her.
The experts of the brocade palace had all come out, and it wouldn't be long before the Gao Family's rebellion was purged.
At the same time, the patience of the big families had reached their limit.
They wouldn't allow Mu Changyan to leave the stage so quickly, Zhuge Liuyun's appearance was just the beginning.
Even Mu Changyan herself didn't think that Zhuge Liuyun's appearance was because he was still loyal to the Mu Clan. Of course, she didn't believe Zhuge Liuyun's words …
Zhuge Liuyun appeared at the most critical moment because they had already seen Mu Changyan's trump card.
Just as the empress dowager wanted to know what kind of cards Mu Changyan held in his hands, so the people from the great clans wanted to see what Mu Changyan had.
When Mu Changyan had finished playing all his cards, they would come to stop the Empress Dowager.
This wasn't just a game of chess between the empress dowager and the Mu Family, but between the various large clans and the empress dowager for their own benefit.
A group of officials rushed into the Heavenly Temple in disorder, then kneeled down in front of Mu Changyan, crying and saying that they should die for saving the family.
Then, the guards brought by the court officials began to surround and kill the a.s.sa.s.sins of the Gao Family.
However, at this moment, the people from the Embroidery Palace also came.
The empress dowager's outpouring of experts from the Palace of Embroidery had truly given the ministers a fright. They thought that the empress dowager was going to fight to the bitter end.
However, no one had expected that the people from the embroidered palace were actually targeting the a.s.sa.s.sins of the Gao Family.
With the arrival of a large number of experts, this a.s.sa.s.sination attempt that the Gao Family considered heroic had turned into a farce.
By the time An Zaiyue arrived at Empyrean Terminus Palace, the matter had already begun to come to an end.
However, it was precisely because of this that the conflict between the two became more and more worrisome.
He had seen more ugly things than most of the people in the world, and his schemes were even more serious than those of the Yan Dynasty.
The reason why An Zaiyue didn't care about those things was because he didn't need to care about them at all.
No one could touch him, no one dared to openly target him. As one of the few people who were at the peak of power in the Da Xi world, he had the power to intimidate others.
Not only that, he had the strength of a powerful individual, and these people could only agree to help him.
However, after arriving at the Yan Dynasty, An Zhe had no choice but to recall all of these matters from the depths of his heart.
The empress dowager's reaction wasn't normal, so there must be some bigger conspiracy behind it.
An Zaiyue took advantage of the chaos to stand aside and watch the empress dowager make her impa.s.sioned speech.
""I never thought that there would be people in the brocade palace colluding with traitors!""
""Lu Tianhui and Zhao Zishan, these two traitorous traitorous bandits, actually dared to a.s.sa.s.sinate the King. I am responsible for my negligence, so I beg your forgiveness.""
She actually bowed to Mu Changyan.
An Zaiyan suddenly understood … All of this was just the beginning. What the empress dowager was planning was more than Mu Changyan?
Lu Tianghui and Zhao Shanshan were sent by the State of Zhao. Although they were the empress dowager's trusted aides, they were in fact the State of Zhao's chess pieces that kept an eye on the empress dowager.
The empress dowager used the strength of the Gao Family to remove all the trump cards Mu Changyan had, then removed the spies that Zhao had planted by her side, killing two birds with one stone.
Who would dare question the empress dowager's words?
Even Mu Changyan had no choice but to rush over to help the empress dowager up. Not only could she not blame him, she could only comfort her with kind words.
This is the loathsome bureaucracy, this is the loathsome heart.
Just when An Zeng wanted to quietly leave and take care of the matters of the Tian Qi Sect's household, he saw Nie Qing, who had disappeared for a period of time.
Nie Qing seemed very calm, standing behind Mu Changyan the entire time.
At that time, An Zhan felt a bit more relaxed. With Nie Qing protecting Mu Changyan, at least he wouldn't be so worried.
He quietly left the crowd. After leaving Heavenly Temple, he stretched lazily, thinking that it was time to take a look at just how much benefits the Heavenly Enlightenment had obtained.
But at this moment, he suddenly stopped.
He suddenly turned around, feeling that he had missed something.
