Chapter 76

The King of Han's hesitation was indeed reasonable.

The main reason was that Su Xuan had refined another furnace of elixirs for him recently, and the effect of this furnace of elixirs was really too good.

This made him realize that what Mr. Su Xuan was truly proficient in was the art of refining elixirs and making medicine.

It was fine to let him refine elixirs and make medicine in the palace; there was really no need to let him leave the palace.

Mo Ya's interception, he still felt lingering fear when thinking about it.

Therefore, even though the reason Ji Wuye gave was good, the King of Han still hesitated.

After a little consideration, the King of Han said, "According to the Grand General, there were people proficient in military strategy directing the fire last night. This is a premeditated revenge. The Grand General can first find out the clues of this matter. If, at that time, it is really impossible to deal with the Baiyue sorcerers, I can let Mr. Su take action."

"Yes!"

Hearing the King of Han's reply, Ji Wuye was inevitably a little disappointed.

He couldn't help but think of some of Bai Yifei's suggestions.

Since the King of Han no longer favored him as he used to, believed in others' words, and even became an accomplice to others, then such a king, continuing to keep him, had no value to them anymore.

The Crown Prince was getting older. If he didn't want to repeat the old events of King Xiaowen of Qin, it would be better to ascend the throne earlier.

King Xiaowen of Qin was the son of King Zhaowang of Qin. He was the Crown Prince for decades. It was not easy to wait until King Zhaowang of Qin passed away, finish the one-year mourning period, and only ascend the throne for three days before dying suddenly, which couldn't help but make people laugh.

The main reason was that King Zhaowang of Qin lived too long, and coupled with the fact that King Xiaowen of Qin's body was not very good, he was forcibly worn to death.

"Let the Crown Prince succeed to the throne?"

Ji Wuye whispered in his heart.

At the beginning, Su Xuan appeared by the King of Han's side and was favored by the King of Han. Ji Wuye was extremely wary, the reason being that Su Xuan's existence might take away part of the favor that belonged to the King of Han.

Although the Night was powerful now, it had not reached the point where it could ignore the King of Han and completely control everything in the State of Han.

Even if the King of Han had some scruples about him because he commanded the army, it didn't mean he was completely obedient to him.

Since the King of Han was unkind and believed in the words of wandering sorcerers, then for the sake of the State of Han, he could only choose to change a King of Han and let the young and strong Crown Prince ascend the throne.

As for whether this idea seemed rebellious?

Ji Wuye indicated that he had never cared about these things.

After leaving the royal palace, Ji Wuye conveyed the King of Han's order, urging his subordinates to step up the investigation of the whereabouts of the Baiyue refugees and find the mastermind behind the scenes.

As for whether they could find them? He knew it in his heart!

Because the so-called Baiyue refugees were released by him in the first place.

On this day, at night.

Because the matter of the Baiyue refugees causing trouble had not yet ended.

After holding a court meeting in the morning, in the evening, in the main hall of the royal palace, a second court meeting was held, which was rare.

At the court meeting, the King of Han continued to urge Grand General Ji Wuye to search for the whereabouts of the Baiyue refugees, and must find the mastermind behind the scenes, and not let them go unpunished.

This statement seemed to have no problems.

But in reality, it revealed the fact that the King of Han was panicked.

As long as the Baiyue rebels were not brought to justice for one day, he would not be able to sleep or eat well for one day.

Many years ago, the State of Han and the State of Chu joined forces to conquer Baiyue. Although the State of Han won, that battle ultimately left quite a few influences. At least, the King of Han did not want the Baiyue rebels to make a comeback.

Just as the court meeting was in full swing.

Suddenly, a soft voice sounded abruptly.

"It really is... lively!"

Everyone heard this voice, and their expressions condensed at the same time.

Afterward, they looked toward the roof beam of the main hall. They saw that on the thick roof beam, a charming figure was sitting sideways. The other party was extremely beautiful, and at this moment, she was looking down at everyone with a playful gaze.

The King of Han looked up at the woman who appeared abruptly, his brows frowned slightly.

Ji Wuye also looked at the woman, his voice indifferent, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the forbidden area of the palace?"

"Who am I?" The woman's mouth curled slightly, "Aren't you always looking for us?"

Prime Minister Zhang Kaidi immediately guessed the other party's identity, "You are... a Baiyue person!"

As soon as this was said, the King of Han's expression changed immediately.

And what made him horrified was the woman's next words, "My master asked me to bring a message to everyone. Last night's matter was just a beginning. The true revenge has just begun!"

"As for who my master is?" The woman paused and said four words, "Red-Eyed... Dragon Snake!"

"!!!"

The King of Han's eyes widened, his face showing fear, clearly thinking of some extremely terrifying past events. His body couldn't help but stumble backward, looking at the woman with fear, "Red-Eyed Dragon Snake..."

"Hmph hmph!" Ji Wuye seemed to have expected all this, looking at the panicked King of Han, and sneered coldly.

"Tian Ze!" I don't know who it was, but they said the real name of the Red-Eyed Dragon Snake.

"Imperial Guard, where is the Imperial Guard?"

The King of Han finally remembered his identity, retreated while pointing at the woman in front of him, and shouted sharply.

Suddenly, outside the main hall, footsteps echoed, and countless imperial guards rushed from outside the hall, and dense arrows shot toward the gorgeous woman with a hiss.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

The sound of breaking through the air echoed. The woman didn't show any fear, smiled faintly, pulled out a bright red hairpin from her hair with each hand, danced with the hairpins in her palms, her body leaped gracefully, and suddenly held the hairpin and pointed to one side. Suddenly, an incomparably mysterious pattern appeared in the palm of her hand, like a shield, blocking all the arrows shot at her. Then the pattern disappeared, turned into flames, burned the arrows to ashes, and pressed toward the imperial guards holding bows.

The screams stopped abruptly—

As several imperial guards fell to the ground, the woman's figure appeared beside the other imperial guards again. With every gesture, she carried raging flames, and one imperial guard after another fell to the ground, either seriously injured or dead on the spot.

Finally, the woman's figure turned into an afterimage, flying around everyone in a circle. In an instant, boundless flames rose from nowhere, condensing into a vast ring of fire, circling everyone in it. The flames were raging, and the temperature was scorching. The King of Han, Zhang Kaidi, and others had sweat on their foreheads, looking at this scene that was like a god or a ghost with horror.

Swish!

The raging fire burned, circling everyone in it, making it difficult to escape. The woman's figure appeared at the hall door, with her back to everyone, and a look of disdain curled at the corner of her mouth.

The so-called monarchs and ministers of the State of Han were nothing more than this.

Just when she broke into the royal palace, made a big scene, and was about to retreat calmly.

A gale blew, heavy and overlapping, blocking her way.

"The main hall of the royal palace is not a place where you can run wild at will!"

The calm voice entered the woman's ears, and the woman's expression changed slightly. ===== CHAPTER 78 =====
