eunuch

Chapter 79 Self Palace (Sixth update, please subscribe)

"It can be used for a while."

Ye Cheng looked at the jade box in the box and showed a satisfied smile.

This time I came to Weizhou to investigate the case, and finally it was not a waste of time.

It's a pity that Yue Qingzong couldn't be used for surgery, otherwise he would be able to get more spiritual objects.

He knew that Emperor Qian was not yet ready to eradicate the Longmen Zhao family, Hetian Wang family, and Yueqingzong.

At the same time, he himself does not want to directly confront this kind of grandmaster force for the time being.

Although he has become a master, his innate cultivation has reached the middle stage.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

During this trip to the southeast, he was enough in the limelight, showing the strength of a half-step master, and it was also dazzling enough.

If you expose the fact that you have become a grandmaster again, you will definitely become a thorn in the side of those grandmaster forces, a thorn in your flesh.

Maybe it's not a problem to deal with one grandmaster, but facing multiple grandmasters, he absolutely dare not take such a big risk.

Unless his comprehension of martial arts goes a step further and reaches the level of a grand master.

In other words, the cultivation base has gone one step further, reaching the innate late stage.

Therefore, he felt that it was necessary to stay longer at the stage of half-step master.

"When I return to Yujing, I will hide in the palace and keep a low profile for a while."

Ye Cheng already has a plan.

So, he took out a jade box and opened it, took out the spiritual object from it, and prepared to practice.

He doesn't have to worry about being interrupted to practice, which will lead to madness.

Anyway, with the fruit of immortality, he can recover at any time.

So no matter whether he is assisted by spiritual objects or not, he will practice anytime, anywhere every day.

A few days later, Ye Cheng received a secret decree from Emperor Qian.

In the secret decree, Emperor Qian praised Yecheng for his effective handling of affairs and made important contributions to the suppression of the bandits. Now that the chaos of the bandits has taken a major turn, let Yecheng take care of everything as soon as possible and escort a group of criminals back to Beijing as soon as possible.
Ye Cheng knew that his trip to the six southeastern states had come to a successful conclusion.

Since Qianhuang didn't let himself go to other states to continue the investigation, it means that Qianhuang should have reached a corresponding compromise with the Longmen Zhao family, Hetian Wang family and other master-level forces.

When Yecheng was finishing the finishing work, the bandit suppressing armies from other states in the southeast mobilized one after another. With the momentum of thunder, waves of bandits were wiped out, and their lairs were pulled out one by one. The battle was fruitful.

As if overnight, the bandit rebellion that was raging in the six southeastern states was wiped out.

After Ye Cheng received the information from the black-clothed guard, he was filled with emotion.

The darkest and most sinister thing in this world is the human heart.

For their own greed and ambition, under the guise of the bandit rebellion, those ambitious people used the six southeastern states as chessboards, and tens of millions of people as chess pieces, and manipulated them wantonly.

In just a few years of turmoil, I don't know how many Li people's homes were destroyed and displaced.

three days later.

Lin'an City.

A heavily armed team walked slowly on the street.

The most conspicuous thing is the prison vans, all of which are the felons arrested this time.

There are even local officials from the second rank, such as Zhao Kang, Weizhou state captain, who is also from the Zhao family of Longmen and is in charge of local military affairs in Weizhou.

As for the officials of the third and fourth ranks, there are more officials, such as Sun Haicheng, the governor of Yuming County, and Heguan, the governor of Tianshui County.
The other is Ma Yunlong, the coach of the Split Wind Army, and Zhao Xiangyun, the commander of the Yunzi Army.

These are eligible to ride in prison vans.

There are also some that are directly chained, strung in a string, and can only be walked.

Many of these are either the leaders of the bandits, or are related to the bandits, and some are the heads of innate powers, or the leaders of local tyrants.

There are nearly a hundred people in total.

At the front of the line was a large group of guards in black, as well as several carriages.

The ones who are qualified to ride in the carriage are naturally Ye Cheng and several eunuchs.

However, there were also a few eunuchs who changed into prison uniforms and became one of the prisoners.

Among them is Su Shicheng, the chief eunuch supervised by the military supervisor.

Even Ye Cheng didn't expect that this person secretly took refuge in the Zhao family of Longmen and worked for the Zhao family. On the same day, Ye Cheng sent this person to lead a team to arrest the people of the Cao Gang, but let the people of the Cao Gang get the news in advance, that is, This person notified secretly.

After interrogation, it turned out that Su Shicheng had been the eunuch supervising iron in Weizhou before he became the supervising military supervising eunuch, and he was dragged into the water at that time.

Today Ye Cheng left Lin'an City and escorted the prisoners back to Yujing.

Due to too many repeat offenders, Ye Cheng mobilized two battalions of the Liefeng Army to escort them all the way. In addition, there are also many masters in the black guards, and Ye Cheng, the secret envoy who surveys the sky, is in charge, so it should be foolproof.

There are many people watching on both sides of the street.

There were also agitated civilians who took out rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and threw them at the prisoners in the prison car.

In the past few years, the rebellion of the gangsters and the inaction of the government have made the six southeastern states miserable, and the people have accumulated too much resentment.

Just by looking at the sallow, emaciated and unkempt faces of these common people, one can tell how miserable they have been in the past few years.

On top of a restaurant on the street.

Several well-dressed men and women wearing weapons stood by the window, watching the procession passing by on the street.

"It's Brother Xiangyun. Shall we just look at these eunuchs and take him away?"

A girl had red eyes and gritted her teeth.

"What else can we do? Go down and snatch him away? I'm afraid none of us will be able to escape, but will fall into it instead. The old man has issued a ban, and we must not cause trouble."

The oldest man next to him sighed and said calmly.

"One day, I will kill all these eunuchs and avenge my brother and the others."

A young boy who looked very young said viciously.

"It's right to keep it in mind. What we need to do at this stage is to practice hard. One day, we will be able to get back today's shame a thousand times."

The older man said in a deep voice.

Inside the carriage.

Ye Cheng closed his eyes and meditated, with Bai Yulang sitting next to him.

As for his donkey brother, he died a few days ago.

After drinking the last bowl of wine, I never woke up again.

Is old and dead.

The life span of a donkey is about 20 years.

Because of this, Bai Yulang was still sad for a long time.

After all, this black donkey has been with him for more than ten years, traveling all over the world.

"Brother Donkey, I will come to worship you every year in the future and bring you my favorite Suqing wine."

Bai Yulang was drunk, still drinking, even talking to himself.

Ye Cheng turned a deaf ear and just communicated with his subconscious mind in a meditative state.

This is what he does every day.

This can increase the maintenance time for him to communicate with his subconscious mind, which is helpful to comprehend the martial intent.

Although Wu Yi's comprehension is still slow, but after a long period of time, he still feels a little bit of progress.

"At this speed, I am afraid that without decades of comprehension, it is impossible to go further."

Ye Cheng felt emotional in his heart.

But how long is a person's life?

Even a congenital master, never injured, never fighting, well maintained, can live a maximum of one hundred and twenty thirty years.

Moreover, with the increase of age, people's energy and spirit will gradually fail.

Innate masters are no exception.

Therefore, when the age reaches a certain level, it is not bad for the grandmaster to maintain his martial will not decline.

This is also the reason why the Grand Master is so difficult to break through.

But what Ye Cheng lacked most was time.

So he is not in a hurry.

Anyway, he now has the power to protect himself, so there is no need to rush for success.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and a scolding sound came from the front.

"What happened?"

Ye Cheng didn't spread out his perception.

The experience of perceiving everything around you at all times is actually not particularly good.

"Mansion Master, a child rushed out ahead and blocked the way. They have already driven the child away."

Zhao Fang's voice sounded outside.

He is personally driving the carriage for Ye Cheng.

"Ask what's up with that kid?"

Ye Cheng said.

There must be a reason for a child to block the convoy under such circumstances.

"Yes, Palace Master."

Zhao Fang got out of the car immediately.

After a while, Zhao Fang came back.

"Mansion Master, that kid said he wanted to see you."

"see me?"

Ye Cheng was very surprised, and immediately said with a smile: "All right, you bring him over, I'll meet you."

Soon, a child about ten years old was brought over.

Ye Cheng lifted the curtain and looked at the child kneeling on the ground.

This child is unkempt, with ragged clothes, and a sallow and emaciated complexion. It is obvious from a glance that he has suffered a lot.

But a pair of eyes are very bright.

"Little guy, why did you stop my convoy?"

Ye Cheng asked with a smile.

"Adults, little ones, I want to be a eunuch in the palace"

The boy seemed a little scared and said in a low voice.

"Why?"

Ye Cheng asked curiously.

"The little one wants revenge."

The young man raised his head, his eyes were firm.

"Do you know what it means to be a eunuch?"

Ye Cheng was a little surprised, and then said.

"I know, if I become a eunuch, my Hong family will lose all children and grandchildren."

said the boy.

"Since you are the only one in your family, then be a normal person."

Ye Cheng looked at the young man, not knowing what happened to him, for revenge, he would rather enter the palace and become a eunuch.

"It's too late, my Hong family has lost all children and grandchildren."

The boy suddenly took off his pants.

"you made it yourself?"

Seeing this scene, Ye Cheng was silent for a while before speaking.

The boy nodded vigorously.

Ye Cheng sighed in his heart, this boy is really ruthless.

Zhao Fang, who was next to her, and several guard eunuchs also gasped.

Dare to leave the palace, what a determination it takes.

"Come up."

He beckoned.

"Thank you for your stay."

The young man was overjoyed, he kowtowed his head immediately, got up quickly, and got into the carriage.

The team moved on.

evening.

The team camped at a station.

house.

Ye Cheng took a book and flipped through it.

This is a martial arts secret book captured from a congenital sect.

Anyway, during this period of time, as long as he has free time, he will look through it.

Although the world's martial arts are stored in the Tiandu Arsenal, there are still many folks, and they have not been collected.

"Master."

Zhao Fang walked in.

"How's it going?"

Ye Cheng asked.

"Mansion Master, I have found out. This young man is called Hong He. He is from Yanguan County, Haizhou. His family was originally a well-known local salt merchant. The population has been wiped out, this Honghe should be the only surviving direct descendant of the Hong family."

Zhao Fang said.

"The destruction of the Hong family shouldn't be as simple as the chaos of the gangsters, right?"

Ye Cheng said.

"Yes, this Hong family has already made a fortune at the beginning of the founding of the country. It was awarded an exclusive salt merchant brand by the imperial court, and has been supplying official salt to the imperial court. Moreover, it has a deep relationship with the Yue Palace."

Zhao Fang said.

Ye Cheng immediately understood.

After King Jing succeeded to the throne, King Yue was the first to stand up and support him.

Later, Emperor Qian took the opportunity to cut down the vassals, and set up a governor's office on the basis of the vassal state system, gradually transferring the administrative power of a state from the vassal king's mansion to the governor's mansion.

This king of Yue was also the first to respond to the reduction of the vassal, making the governor's department of Yuezhou the first to operate.

Unfortunately, the bandit rebellion first started in Yuezhou.

The Yue Palace was also massacred in the Ma Bandit Rebellion, and not even a single heir escaped.

After this incident happened that year, the world was shocked.

So when a small salt merchant Hong's family was destroyed, it was not very noticeable.

There were not a few forces in Yuezhou who followed the Yue Palace to be destroyed. These forces have a characteristic, that is, they are biased towards the imperial court and the royal family.

As the gangsters swept across the six southeastern states, the imperial court's influence there was minimized.

Whether it was Yue Wang's mansion or local forces like the salt merchant Hong's family, the reason why they were wiped out was actually inseparable from the Longmen Zhao family and the Hetian Wang family.
