#221 Xue Lu, Deserve to Die!
The Embroidered Uniform Guards will definitely shock the entire Imperial City tonight.
It had only been a few days since His Highness the Emperor of the Red Sky Kingdom issued an edict to form the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the Embroidered Uniform Guard had killed the Commander of the City Guards Force, Xue Lu.
The actions of the Embroidered Uniform Guard caused many people in the Imperial City to tremble in fear, and practically all of these people had a grudge with Duan Ling Tian.
The Third Prince's
Bang out!
Inside the building in the middle of the lake, the Third Prince's expression, which had just received a report from his servant, became gloomy. He threw the wine cup in his hand to break onto the ground, causing some young geniuses to be unable to resist shaking in fear.
“Everything, today's meeting is over. We'll get together again next time.” The Third Prince took a deep breath and spoke to escort his guest.
After all the young geniuses present left, the Third Prince's eyes shone with an astonishing chill. “Because I've been like fire and water with him, then I don't need to hold back. I must destroy his arrogant aura.Go make preparations, I want to enter the palace and see my Imperial Father tomorrow!”
“Ya.” The servant took the order and left.
“Duan Ling Tian, do you really think that achieving a small meritorious service allows you to act in an uncontrolled way? I really want to see how my Imperial Father will punish you!” The incomparable cold voice of Third Price seemed to be from the depths of hell.
The Fifth Prince's
Inside the pergola, the white-browed old man respectfully reported to the Fifth Prince about the scattered matter and stirred up a lot of discussion in the Imperial City.
“What? Duan Ling Tian actually brought his subordinate Embroidered Uniform Guards and killed Xue Lu?” The Fifth Prince was startled by this news, then his face sank. “He is really hesitant and immoral!”
“Your Majesty, I heard that the person who did the deed was one of his subordinate Embroidered Uniform Guards. That Embroidered Uniform Guard should be at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Stage.” A hint of fear was contained in the tone of the white-browed old man's voice.
“It looks like the Divine Might Marquis still cares about the friendship he had with Duan Ru Feng all those years ago … and actually put in great effort to send a level nine Nascent Soul Stage martial artist to be ordered by Duan Ling Tian.” The Fifth Prince's eyes flickered coldly, and his tone was depressed and low.
“Your Majesty, what should we do now?” The white-browed old man asked.
The Fifth Prince flicked his sleeve and said, in a cold and indifferent voice, “Hmph! Now we don't have to do anything. I will go to the palace to see my Imperial Father tomorrow. This Duan Ling Tian was truly too bold, even daring to kill the Commander of the City Guards Force….Tomorrow, my Imperial Father will dismiss him from his post as Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!”
“Yang Mulia wise.” The white-browed old man nodded.
Prime Minister's Treasure.
Gu You Ting sat in front of the stone table in the front yard while enjoying the fragrant tea with a calm mind.
Before long, a hurried figure whistled and said, in a respectful voice, “Mr, Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Duan Ling Tian, Master, bring along his subordinates the Embroidered Uniform Guards and kill the Commander of the City Guard Army, Xue Lu. !”
“Xue Lu?” Gu You Tong's eyebrows shot up. “Only disrespectful people …. However, Xue Lu's father is not simple.”
As he muttered, a trace of gloomy brilliance flashed in Gu You Ting's eyes.
The next day, Duan Ling Tian had just arrived at the residence of the Embroidered Uniform Guard when he was summoned to the Imperial Palace.
It was still the same majestic palace from before, and Duan Ling Tian walked over with huge strides. He noticed that other than the Emperor, who was sitting on the imperial throne, and Prime Minister Gu You Ting, who was standing beside him, still stood two people nearby.
These two people were no strangers to Duan Ling Tian.
Third Prince, Fifth Prince!
Although he guessed that the Emperor calling him was about the matter yesterday, he never thought that the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince, who were usually in conflict, would actually secretly unite for his sake.
Looks like his face is a bit amazing.
“Yang Mulia.” Duan Ling Tian looked at the Emperor and lightly nodded.
“Business!” The faces of the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince became grim as they chided the maki.
“Bassy?” Duan Ling Tian looked at the two of them and smiled indifferently. “Prince, I wonder how I sassy.”
“Duan Ling Tian, you didn't kneel when you saw His Majesty the Emperor. Is this not presumptuous?” The Third Prince asked, in a deep voice.
“Not kneeling when you see His Majesty the Emperor is a very disrespectful crime! Duan Ling Tian, do you know your crime?” The Fifth Prince added insult to injury.
Duan Ling Tian did not even notice what the two were saying and instead looked at the Emperor.
“Alright, you two brothers, that's enough.” The emperor spoke up.
“Empire Father!” The Third Prince and the Fifth Prince were both stunned, and looked at the Emperor with puzzled expressions.
The Emperor said nonchalantly, “I've promised Commander Duan that he's freed from kneeling when he sees me in the future …. You two don't have to make a fuss about anything.”
Free from kneeling?
The Third Prince's and Fifth Prince's pupils shriveled and they both had shocked expressions.
They never imagined that their Imperial Father would treat Duan Ling Tian so generously….
As far as they were concerned, the events of yesterday alone were enough to cause Duan Ling Tian to fall from heaven to hell and forever unable to rise again!
“Alright, now that Commander Duan is here, what are you two saying?” The Emperor looked at the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince and asked indifferently.
“Empire Father, this Duan Ling Tian got your help and was even awarded as Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard by you. He must make an example of himself and serve my Imperial Family …. But unexpectedly, at dawn yesterday, he had completely lost.all assessments until he forced his way into the encampment of the City Guards Army and killed Commander Xue Lu!” The Third Prince had a face full of anger. “Empire Father, Commander Xue Lu is the pillar of our kingdom; however, he died at the hands of this foolish child. I hope that Imperial Father will uphold justice for Commander Xue Lu!”
“Yes, Imperial Father! Duan Ling Tian killing Commander Xue Lu was a heinous crime. I hope Imperial Father will dismiss him from his post as Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and punish him severely as a warning against others.” The Fifth Prince joined in and begged as well.
From start to finish, Duan Ling Tian had a carefree expression, as if he did not care about what was happening before him.
And actually, Duan Ling Tian did not care about what happened, because to him, this was all just a joke!
“Commander Duan, what is this about?” The Emperor's gaze descended on Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian understood as he looked at the Emperor's calm gaze that the Emperor really was not only aware of this matter and might have known about it last night. Now he had just acted before the Third and Fifth Princes.
The Emperor's gaze seemed to have traces of meaning mixed within it.
Duan Ling Tian saw what this imprint of meaning meant, and the Emperor hoped that Duan Ling Tian would give him a way to break away….
Although for the sake of him being the only one capable of refining poison-removing pills, the Emperor was unlikely to punish him, but the Emperor was after all the Emperor, and he had the highest dignity. Now the Emperor needed a way to break away.
“Yang Mulia.” Duan Ling Tian looked at the Emperor who said he understood, then slowly said, “The difference between me and Xue Lu all appeared because of his son, Xue Lang. I guess Your Majesty has heard it …. However, Your Majesty did not. have no idea that almost five months ago, during my journey following the Crimson Wyrm Army to leave the Imperial City and head to the northwestern border, someone wanted to kill me!”
“You can imagine what if that person succeeds, then I will not be able to cooperate with the border army and Crimson Wyrm Army to seize the Southern Barbarian City and spread the power of my Red Sky Kingdom!” Duan Ling Tian said, in a clear voice.
“There is still such an incident?” The Emperor's face was drowned. “Do you know who it is?”
Duan Ling Tian nodded. “This is what I want to say next .. That person is a member of the City Guard Army, acting under the orders of the Commander of the City Guard Army, Xue Lu, who is, to sneak into the Crimson Wyrm Army with the desire to kill.I am on the way, and take revenge for his son!”
“Omong empty!”
“Omong empty *t!”
The Third Prince and the Fifth Prince spoke at almost the same time.
However, under the dignified Emperor's gaze, the two of them shut their mouths.
“Continue.” The Emperor looked at Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian nodded, “Your Majesty, I know that the two princes suspect that what I am talking about is not true … But this matter was something that Commander Xue Lu had admitted to himself yesterday at the City Guard Army camp. I originally had no intention of doing anything to her, and just wanted her to pay a little compensation. It's not too much, is it?”
“However, Xue Lu did not appreciate my kindness; he threatened to kill me and the Embroidered Uniform Guards under my command… All this is something that thousands of soldiers heard inside the encampment of the City Guard Army with their own ears. two princes do not believe, do not hesitate to investigate.” As Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, he looked at the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince.
Their faces drowned.
Duan Ling Tian continued. “In the end, for the sake of self-safety, I can only order the Embroidered Uniform Guards under my command to kill Xue Lu before he kills me. Otherwise, the dead ones are me and my Embroidered Uniform Guards. I hope Your Majesty understands.”
Emperor nodded.
“Empire Father!” Right at this moment, a pleasant clear and melodious voice in the ears rang out, then a dead beautiful body walked swiftly under the escort of the palace maid.
This was a young girl with a peerless appearance that caused one to be unable to resist getting lost in her beauty with just a glance.
“Princess Bi Yao.” Duan Ling Tian was a little surprised, as he never thought that he would meet Princess Bi Yao here.
“Bi Yao, you seem to be in a great hurry …. Do you have any urgent problems?” The Emperor's face showed a hint of hospitality when he saw Bi Yao, this was something that was not there when he faced the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince, and it was enough to show how much he cherished this daughter.
“Empire Father, I heard you will punish Commander Duan, right? Imperial Father, can't you punish Commander Duan? He won't kill anyone else for no reason.” Princess Bi Yao was slightly panting as she spoke.
Instantly, everyone present was stunned.
Since no one expected that Princess Bi Yao had come in a hurry was actually to beg on behalf of Duan Ling Tian.
The expressions of the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince were extremely grim.
As for the Emperor, he glanced at Duan Ling Tian deeply. Since he was an experienced person, he could see that his daughter should have secretly fallen in love with a young man of this age. Otherwise, he would not forcefully enter the throne room.
“Bi Yao, who said Imperial Father would punish Commander Duan?” The Emperor shook his head with a smile. “Commander Duan had explained earlier, he was not wrong in this matter, it was the fault of the City Guards Army Commander, Xue Lu…. Xue Lu, deserved to die!”
The Third Prince and the Fifth Prince knew that they had wasted time today when they heard what the Emperor said.
Princess Bi Yao's pretty face turned crimson when she heard what the Emperor said, because she never thought that the result of her rush here would be like this.
So it turned out that even if he did not come, Duan Ling Tian would be fine.
For a moment, he was embarrassed to the point that he felt too embarrassed to show his face.
“Two of you!” The Emperor's gaze quickly turned to the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince, and he said coldly, “Other times, don't bother me before you investigate the matter clearly!”
