Chapter 197: with translation of chapter title

In Zhou Tian's heart, there was still an idea, a thought, so he believed he should act this way.

That is, he believed Yun Fengyun must be on his side.

Yang Jun should also know these matters, so yielding is necessary.

After all, Yun Fengyun holds a bias against Yang Jun in all matters.

He will not always side with Yang Jun; on the contrary, he will think Yang Jun has too many shortcomings.

That being the case, Zhou Tian now appears arrogant, and he also believes such a thing can still be done.

Since that's the case, let's report it.

Yang Jun gave a cold snort and turned to walk away.

In the Imperial Palace, Yang Jun and Yun Xuanmo came together, while Zhou Tian followed leisurely behind, his face full of contempt.

Since this has been decided, there is no need to worry.

Yuan Lu then blocked the several people, not allowing them to enter the study.

Your Highness, the Emperor is handling urgent matters; you two should come another day.

Yuan Lu blocked the two, yet while speaking he still appeared respectful.

However, it is obvious that in this matter he is insisting on his stance.

Zhou Tian stood behind, a smug look on his face.

Just by Yang Jun, can he still rely on himself?

Urgent matter? My affairs are the urgent matter.

Yang Jun gave a cold snort, flickered, and his powerful strength erupted at that moment.

He reached out to push Yuan Lu aside, but quickly discovered his strength could not move Yuan Lu.

Yang Jun also recalled that, in the original book, this Yuan Lu was the fourth hidden grandmaster of Great Xia.

However, his usual conduct does not show off or reveal itself.

Although Yuan Lu blocked Yang Jun, his inner self was still immensely shocked.

Yang Jun's initial strength was naturally known to Yuan Lu.

But looking now, Yang Jun's growth speed is also too fast.

What's happening outside?

From within the study, Yun Fengyun's voice was heard.

Today his voice carried coldness, bearing a chill.

Yun Fengyun has always been training; his body grows weaker, and he feels his period of decline drawing near.

This makes his heart even more uneasy.

When the period of decline arrives, Yun Fengyun will feel insecure.

He must tighten his plans and make thorough preparations.

Only then can his safety be assured.

Just as he was intensifying his training, noisy sounds came from outside, and he even heard Yuan Lu taking action.

This matter also made Yun Fengyun feel somewhat surprised.

Upon hearing Yun Fengyun's voice, Yuan Lu then stepped aside.

After all, here he must be responsible and guarantee Yun Fengyun's safety.

Yang Jun and the two entered, and Yun Xuanmo immediately knelt.

Father Emperor, your subject has a matter to report.

Tai Yi Yuan's Lin Bai Cao tampered with Xi Yue's fetal medicine, intending to harm Xi Yue.

And Zhou Tian was the mastermind behind the scenes, and after the incident he even killed to silence witnesses!

Yun Xuanmo immediately repeated his words to Yun Fengyun.

If the act of killing to silence witnesses is proven, its effect will be even more unimaginable.

Fifth Highness, this is nothing but slander.

At that time the situation was urgent; I acted to protect Your Highness, thus I beheaded Lin Bai Cao.

All the city guards can testify for me on this matter.

Zhou Tian hurriedly spoke to defend himself, for he was unwilling to wait passively for death.

After speaking, he hastily bowed his hands to Yun Fengyun.

Such a matter is truly the most important for him.

Yang Jun, do you have any evidence?

Yun Fengyun raised his head, looked at Yang Jun, and spoke.

Your subject, none.

Yang Jun furrowed his brows; this matter remains a major problem for him.

Although from Lin Bai Cao's gaze one can see that he is indeed clearly related to Zhou Tian.

But in this matter, I indeed have no evidence.

Since there is no evidence, it is merely a misunderstanding.

I will arrange an investigation to clarify this matter; between you, the misunderstanding will be resolved, so stop exhausting yourselves.

Yun Fengyun spoke while lightly tapping his fingers on the armrest of the chair.

While speaking, his eyes turned to Yang Jun, as if admonishing yet also warning.

Yes.

Yang Jun had no evidence, but now that he has seen Yun Fengyun, his purpose can be considered achieved.

He cupped his fists in a salute, Yang Jun's face calm.

Your servant requests to retire.

Seeing Yang Jun request to retire, Yun Xuanmo's eyes widened.

Now, as Yang Jun handles this matter, it always feels like a lot of thunder but little rain.

However, though unwilling in his heart, he also feels somewhat helpless.

Your servant also requests to retire first.

Yun Xuanmo also cupped his fists toward Yun Fengyun in salute and left the Imperial Study.

Zhou Tian let out a soft snort; even if Yun Fengyun no longer valued him as before, he would still favor himself.

At least for now, Yang Jun and the others can't do anything to him.

Yuan Lu!

Yang Jun and Yun Xuanmo departed, and just as Yuan Lu closed the door, Yun Fengyun's voice sounded again.

Yuan Lu waved his right hand, and a heavy slap landed hard on Zhou Tian's cheek.

Zhou Tian, caught off guard, flew backward, his cheek split open and flesh torn, and several teeth fell out.

You scoundrel, dare to lay a hand on My daughter—are you seeking death?

Yun Fengyun shouted angrily, his face overbearing, utterly dominant.

Your Majesty, I am wronged!

Zhou Tian spoke up to protest, but the blood in his mouth flowed down his throat at that moment.

A flash of ferocity crossed his eyes; this matter also gave him clarity.

Yun Fengyun values him, not because of his great ability.

The most important point is that he is more obedient than Yang Jun.

Today's affair is basically a pit that Yang Jun deliberately dug.

That this matter has come to Yun Fengyun's attention also means that these things are, for him, impossible to fully resolve.

Yun Fengyun knows that such matters will surely dissatisfy him.

Get out!

Yun Fengyun shouted again, and Zhou Tian hastily bowed in salute.

Your servant obeys!

Zhou Tian responded and turned to leave.

Your Majesty, is this truly Zhou Tian's doing?

Yuan Lu watched Zhou Tian leave, then turned and bowed respectfully to Yun Fengyun.

Even if Yang Jun is muddle-headed, he wouldn't go so far as to scheme with his own child.

Furthermore, this time's pregnancy-preserving medicine was sent over by Xuanmo.

After leaving the Tai Yi Yuan, everything was personally handled by Xuanmo, under his own control.

Yun Fengyun said this and lightly nodded.

Yun Fengyun spoke angrily, the killing intent in his eyes growing stronger.

Yun Fengyun spoke angrily, the killing intent in his eyes growing stronger.

However, this matter is indeed because Yun Fengyun's own body has grown increasingly weak; at times he has no choice but to make concessions.
