Chapter 83: Unable to Reincarnate Part Two
Zhou Buyi sighed and added, “I told you that you guys don’t need to do anything in a hurry; I will investigate this issue and get it resolved. However, your friend who had disappeared went over the line. Last night, someone attacked the Ministry of War. This person went through three gates and killed 104 people, including three level 7 masters and one level 8 master. This person was severely injured. Although this person escaped from a level 9 master who arrived later, dying is only a matter of time.”
Mu Xiaoyao suddenly stood up and said firmly after a few seconds of silence, “I need to see Fang Jie.”
“I can’t suppress this matter for too long.” Zhuo Buyi shook his head and told her to sit down first. “I didn’t inform the Royal Guard Captain and the Head of the Intelligence Department, but it isn’t hard for them to find out who did this. If your friend died, I would have reported this incident and gave an excuse. I could say that a martial arts master who was hostile toward the government did this, and I could also say that Mongo-Yuan did this as revenge; any excuses that His Majesty would believe. However, if she isn’t dead, the Royal Guard wouldn’t be the only one investigating this incident.”
“The Court of Judicial Review, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of War all have masters investigating this matter. Although Chang’an is huge, they will soon find out.”
Mu Xiaoyao froze for a second and asked, “Mr. Zhuo, you mean Chen Qingshan has to die?”
Zhuo Buyi didn’t say anything, but he nodded.
Mu Xiaoyao sneered and walked out while saying, “Mr. Zhuo, something you said isn’t correct. Chen Qingshan isn’t my friend but my opponent. However, if people want to kill her, they would have to kill me first. Even if we are hostile toward each other, we are family.”
She suddenly stopped and added without turning her head, “If you want to capture me, please do it after I meet Fang Jie. Although Chen Qingshan and I have grudges against each other, that is a private matter. Even if we are going to die, we want to die together. I believe Fang Jie thinks the same.”
Then, Mu Xiaoyao left without hesitation.
Zhuo Buyi smiled bitterly and shook his head. “With such a personality, you will suffer in the future.”
“You sure value her; are you interested in her?” someone asked.
Zhuo Buyi wasn’t surprised. Although Mu Xiaoyao was the only person in the residence before he walked into the yard, this man who just spoke was now here.
“She will become an unparalleled master; just give me time,” Zhuo Buyi replied.
The person who just appeared picked a peach from the peach tree in the yard. Then, he took a bite after wiping it with a white handkerchief.
The peach was sour and pucker enough to make people frown, but this man didn’t mind. In fact, he was enjoying it.
“You know that I wouldn’t help her just because of what you said. If it isn’t going to be beneficial to the Royal Guard, I won’t help even if you want to. If I do something in the future that would jeopardize the Royal Guard, you can take me out without hesitation.” This man looked at Zhuo Buyi and said seriously, “Also, don’t put the Royal Guard into a passive situation. This incident is too big; no one can bear His Majesty’s fury.”
“However, I will give you three days; I will inform His Majesty in three days. Hou Wenji is only giving me three days of favor.” After saying that, this man walked away.
Luo Weiran somehow appeared in this residence, and no one knew when he got here. Perhaps he was here before Mu Xiaoyao left. Also, perhaps he was standing behind her and watching her when she was blanking out and staring at the red dress.
Mu Xiaoyao had no idea that this man was here. If she learned about this, aside from feeling frightened, her confidence would be hammered once more.
…
The scenery at Smooth Spring Garden was exceptional.
The Emperor became a bit anxious after reviewing a few memorials to the throne, so he decided to take a walk along the path paved with rocks. When the wind blew by, it was refreshing, making him feel peaceful.
Su Buwei, the eunuch who now held the ink brush for the Emperor, followed carefully.
When the Emperor walked to an artificial mountain, he saw the words engraved on it.
[A mountain is dangerous when it is tall, and its peak reaches into the cloud. When it is hard to go up and down, every step should be steady and safe.]
The Emperor frowned and felt like he needed to get someone to take out these words. However, after taking three steps forward, his expression froze a little before his frown disappeared.
Behind the artificial mountain, there was a lotus pond. This was the season when lotuses bloomed, and the lotuses in the pond looked pleasing.
“Su Buwei.”
“I’m here.” Su Buwei quickly took a step forward with his body bent, waiting for the Emperor’s order.
Mu Xiaoyao suddenly stood up and said firmly after a few seconds of silence, “I need to see Fang Jie.”
“I can’t suppress this matter for too long.” Zhuo Buyi shook his head and told her to sit down first. “I didn’t inform the Royal Guard Captain and the Head of the Intelligence Department, but it isn’t hard for them to find out who did this.
