A shocking news spread to Qiandu. The martial arts regiment stationed at the gate of Zoroastrian Cult was bloodbathed overnight, and no one survived.

After Emperor Qian got the news, he was extremely angry and ordered all ministries to investigate strictly.

The originally good situation of eradicating the demons was suddenly cast into a shadow because of this incident.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The old Emperor Qian sat on the throne, while Prince Yingqi sat at the bottom.

During normal court meetings, Emperor Qian would not speak even if he was present. Ying Qi would preside over it.

"How's the investigation going?"

Qianhuang asked Xuan Yi, the master of Xuanji Palace below.

"Your Majesty, I apologize for my incompetence. We have not found many valuable things for the time being. According to our reconstruction of the scene, the person who took action must be a martial arts half-sage. There are traces left by a total of twelve people. We suspect...They are all at the first level of martial arts semi-saints, but they should have nothing to do with demons."

Xuan Yi said quickly

"What?"

Emperor Qian showed surprise on his face.

Everyone else present was also surprised.

Twelve martial arts half-saints?

Where did they come from?

All the demonized semi-saints of Zoroastrian Cult have been eliminated by that mysterious strong man..As for the other four transcendental forces, the imperial court has sent people to keep a close eye on them to prevent incidents like the Zoroastrian Cult from happening again.

Where did these twelve suspected martial arts half-saint murderers come from? Could they be from outside the Central Plains?

This possibility.

After all, China is not completely closed and has connections with the outside world, especially the countries in the Western Regions.

"No matter what, we must find these twelve people. They dare to kill my Daqian warriors. They are enemies, not friends."

Qianhuang said in a deep voice.

This kind of terrifying strong man hiding in the dark is too great a threat to Daqian.......

In the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed.

It has been the twenty-fifth year of Taikang.

Emperor Qian's health deteriorated rapidly and he could no longer get out of bed.

However, the situation in Daqian is now stable, and Prince Yingqi has become fully fledged and has shown extremely high political talents.

In this year, Yingwei never went out again. Every day she either stayed in the library and practiced hard, or accompanied Emperor Qian.

On this day, Ye Cheng sat on a chair and read a book.

The weather is a bit gloomy.

Xiao Jiangzi is still practicing martial arts on the side, and he has successfully broken through to the first-level innate level.

The reason why his cultivation speed is not as fast as Ying Wei's is naturally because Ye Cheng only gives him basic cultivation resources, unlike Ying Wei who relies on the royal family and has no shortage of cultivation resources.

Ye Cheng did this mainly because he was worried that Xiao Jiangzi would practice too quickly and his foundation would be unstable.

It's okay to go slow.

Anyway, when practicing in the library, the most indispensable thing is time.

"Alas, a generation of emperors is finally coming to an end."

Ye Cheng put down the books in his hands, looked up in the direction of the Yangxin Hall, and sighed.

He stood up and walked into the library, tidied up his clothes, and then returned to the door.

At this time, an old eunuch stood on tiptoes quickly Coming,"Little father-in-law, Your Majesty wants to see you, come with me quickly.""

Ye Cheng didn't say anything, and followed the old eunuch towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The old eunuch walked faster and faster, but Ye Cheng seemed to be unhurried, but he didn't fall behind at all.

At this moment, the old eunuch understood that it seemed ordinary The ordinary little father-in-law turned out to be a hidden master of martial arts.

Even stronger than him.

He never neglected himself. Although I don’t know why the little father-in-law would rather be a sweeping eunuch and spend his whole life in a place like the library?

He and the Queen were full of people inside and outside. Except for the eunuchs, maids, and doctors, there were people from the royal family and ministers.....It was obvious that Emperor Qian was dying, so he called people over in advance to give his final instructions.

Ye Cheng didn't wait and went in directly.

Many people present were curious.

Because they have never seen Ye Cheng.

How could a gray-robed eunuch, the lowest-ranking eunuch in the inner palace, be qualified to enter such an occasion?

The person who can get the final audience with Emperor Qian is either the person closest to him or the important minister and general he relies on the most.

Entering the inner hall, Ye Cheng saw Ying Wei who had been wiping away tears, Ying Qi who had turned pale, and the Queen who had a sad face.....As soon as Ye Cheng came in, they all looked over.

"Young father-in-law, my father...."

Yingwei walked up, tears rolling down like pearls

"Little father-in-law."

Ying Qi also nodded slightly towards Ye Cheng.

In recent years, because he had to learn to deal with government affairs, Ying Qi didn't come to the library many times, but he still showed respect to Ye Cheng, the young father-in-law.

"I have met the Queen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and His Royal Highness the Princess."

Ye Cheng bowed slightly and said

"Your Majesty wants to see you, so hurry in."

The Empress said softly.

Ye Cheng nodded, and then walked into the inner room. There was no one inside.

After all, they were meeting one by one. Emperor Qian must say something intimate, and it is impossible for others to hear it.

Dragon Bed Above, Emperor Qian lay quietly on his back with his eyes closed and his hair white as snow. He looked extremely old, as if he would die at any time in his dying years.

"His Majesty."

Ye Cheng came to the bedside and called softly.

"Little father-in-law, here we come."

Qianhuang opened his eyes, turned his head slightly, and looked at Ye Cheng with his cloudy eyes, as if he was reading.

Ye Cheng didn't speak, and looked at Qianhuang.

"Eliminate the poison for me, preserve my life, save me from conquering the world, save my daughter, and destroy the Zoroastrian Cult....It should all be you, little father-in-law."

After a long time, Emperor Qian's weak voice sounded again.

Ye Cheng didn't speak.

"Young father-in-law, you don’t need to say anything, and you don’t need to deny or admit it. I just know it in my heart. Emperor Qian continued,"

Back then, my father had the eunuch king Linxi. He reigned for forty-three years, and the government was stable and the country and the people were at peace. However, I have been in power for twenty-five years. Although there were many twists and turns, I finally made it through. This is It’s all because of you, my little father-in-law. I’m so blessed. He took a breath and his voice became softer,"I can't do it anymore. I can only leave the next road to Qi'er. His personality seems to be like mine, but I know that his personality is too arrogant and I will pressure him." If he stays, he may not go the wrong way, but if I leave, he will be a runaway horse. No one can predict what situation he will bring Daqian to."

"Little father-in-law, I have one last request. If he goes in the wrong direction, please help me."

Qianhuang opened his mouth, as if he wanted to breathe fresh air, and his weak voice became more urgent.

"This, this is the first and last imperial edict I give you."

His bone-like hand grasped a bright yellow scroll and raised it up.

His eyes widened, as if he wanted to see Ye Cheng clearly, with a touch of endless expectation.

Sure enough, Emperor Qian really saw it, But never said

"Your Majesty, I accept your decree."

Ye Cheng looked deeply at Qianhuang, sighed in his heart, and then took the imperial edict.

Qianhuang's old face finally showed a smile, and then his hands were so weak that he fell down. He died with a smile.

Looking at the deceased Emperor Qian, Ye Cheng felt the weight of the imperial edict in his hand.

Even though he didn't open it, he already knew the contents of the edict.

"I Zhao said.....The young father-in-law Ye Cheng has made great contributions to the Daqian Dynasty and was specially appointed as the eunuch king. To carry out this imperial edict, he has the power to supervise the new emperor. If the new emperor behaves in an angry manner, he can be scolded, whipped and deposed...."

Ye Cheng smiled calmly, this emperor really dared to trust him......
