Chapter 301 The dust has settled
"Oh? Is this the case?"
The emperor glanced at the seventh prince with interest. It seemed that the seventh prince had not reported this.
The Seventh Prince was stunned and quickly explained, "Father, this is indeed the case. At that time, Ye Fusu wanted to take action against Ye Chen, and Ning Heng helped him out in the box, and then invited Ye Chen to discuss matters in the box, but Wei Your Excellency is also among them.”
"Your Majesty, before his betrayal, Ning Heng had a secret meeting with Ye Chen. There is something really strange about this."
Zuo Xiang said coldly.
"There's nothing that can't be said."
Ye Chen smiled lightly, "Ning Heng was injured by a sword, and he didn't have much time left. He has tried every means over the years to cure it, but my disciple saw at a glance that he had a sword injury. Ning Heng wanted my disciple to treat it... …”
"Sword injury, time is running out?"
After hearing this, the emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.
interesting.
It seemed that Ye Chen did have two brushes.
Over the years, Ning Heng had always concealed his sword wounds very well. Even he found some clues after many investigations.
Unexpectedly, they saw the clues at a glance.
"Then what?"
the emperor asked calmly.
This conversation caused a huge stir among the ministers.
The first thing that shocked them was Ye Chen's words.
Lord Chief Assistant Ning Heng, has he been wounded by the sword all this time?
They couldn't help but think of Prime Minister Wei.
The former Prime Minister of Wei was tortured by a hidden disease. Not only had his cultivation not progressed over the years, but there was also a faint trend of regression.
If Ye Chen hadn't brought him a drop of Emperor's Blood Essence in time, he wouldn't be here today.
As for Ning Heng, they really couldn't guess it.
It turns out that he had a sword wound all along?
Secondly, they were shocked that His Majesty was not surprised by all this.
In other words, His Majesty knew all this from beginning to end?
Looking at it this way, His Majesty really has everything under control!
"Then, I rejected Ning Heng. After being rejected, he became angry and ordered his men to kill me."
Ye Chen chuckled.
"You mean, General Black?"
All the civil and military officials looked shocked.
Next to Ning Heng was a mysterious man wearing armor.
He wears a mask all day long and has a very mysterious origin. No one has seen his true face.
However, he was very powerful in combat and made many meritorious deeds, so he was named the Black General.
"Yes, he wanted to attack my master, but I cut off one of his arms with my sword."
Xiao Yuan'er stood up and said seriously.
In the past, others would have thought she was bragging.
But now, after witnessing her killing Yuan Qiming with one punch, everyone was afraid of her.
This little girl looks cute and harmless, but in fact her fighting power is terrifying.
At least, it was an existence that took lives five times!
The left prime minister's pupils shrank violently, obviously shocked by this.
He didn't know about Ning Heng's sword injury.
The words he had thought carefully about to counter Ye Chen were easily resolved.
Zuo Xiang froze in place, his mind going blank.
Now, the wave of the general trend is hitting his body crazily.
Gradually swallowing him up and drowning him.
This is also the first time that the left prime minister, who has overwhelming power in the government and the opposition, feels powerless from the bottom of his heart.
Under the powerful strength of Ye Chen and Xiao Yuan'er, he was unable to refute or fight back.
Strength is everything!
Big fists are the last word after all!
"The reason why he defected to the land of three mountains and five ridges must be that they promised him that they would be able to help him heal his sword wounds."
Ye Chen smiled faintly, "The sword wound was very deep, and the sword energy had penetrated into the bone marrow. It was not easy to cure. Ning Heng had been searching hard for two hundred years, and his life was about to end. For him, there was nothing better than living. More important."
The emperor stroked his beard and laughed loudly, "Okay, you don't have to argue anymore. I already have a choice in my mind. Wei Chen, for the sake of your dedication to our Xiaoyue Dynasty these years, I will grant you this special title." For the chief assistant!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Wei Xiang was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
From beginning to end, he didn't say a word.
These four words should be the first words he said after going to court.
All civil and military officials were also startled. Could the winner be determined so quickly?
It's actually a little fast, but also a little unsatisfying.
Originally, they wanted to see the war of words between Prime Minister Wei and Prime Minister Zuo, with both sides going back and forth and criticizing each other.
After not having enough fun, they all lamented that the weight given to talented people was too great.
If Ye Chen and Xiao Yuan'er were from the Zuo Prime Minister's side, even if Wei Xiang drank the essence and blood of the Emperor's Vein and regained his peak, he would never be able to compete with the Zuo Prime Minister for the position of chief minister.
Ultimately, it’s talent.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to resign as prime minister, retire and return to my hometown."
When Zuo Xiang saw that the dust had settled, he bowed and asked to resign.
Originally, he wanted to use his eldest son Zuo Ao to counterattack.
Zuo Ao, as a hussar general, is the last support of the left prime minister.
However, in the face of the general trend, he found that he was completely powerless.
"I'm sure."
The emperor waved his hands and didn't even want to do anything.
The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This is particularly evident in the court.
After the meeting in the court, Prime Minister Wei was surrounded by a group of dignitaries, each of them saying congratulations.
As for Ye Chen and Xiao Yuan'er, they didn't want to stay in the palace any longer and went to the imperial city immediately after the meeting.
The imperial city is very big. It is the largest city in Xiaoyue Dynasty and very lively.
The last time I came to participate in the competition of the Hidden Dragon Ranking, I didn’t have time to stroll around the city. It happened that I had time this time, so I went around to play around, took Xiao Yuan’er to relax, and bought her two candied haws.
The two walked in the city, looking at the lively crowd, and their minds couldn’t help but be free.
There were too many fights during this period, and there was little time to calm down and practice.
Even the family has not been back for a long time.
"Mr. Ye?"
A voice suddenly sounded on the side of the road.
Ye Chen looked sideways and saw that it was Wang Dacai.
He looked surprised and rushed up in two steps, "Mr. Ye, it’s a great honor to meet you again. Come on, come and sit in my store."
"Today, I am not interested in gambling on stones, nor do I want to bet."
Ye Chen shook his head. He didn’t understand Wang Dacai a little, but felt that this person was very cunning.
As for the personality shown on the surface, it was just the personality that he wanted you to see.
"No, Wang has more than just Jubao Tower, there is also Xianheju, which is much more fun than Jubao Tower."
Wang Dacai tried his best to invite, "Besides, Wang has specially prepared a pot of good tea, waiting to taste tea and discuss with Mr. Ye."
"Not interested."
Ye Chen shook his head.
Xiao Yuan'er heard this, but showed a yearning look, "Xianheju, is the biggest brothel in the imperial city, Xianheju?"
"Yes, yes, Miss Xiao Yuan'er is a wise person."
Wang Dacai smiled from ear to ear.
