Assassinating the Emperor is not such an easy task. I just didn't expect that such a Grandmaster-level expert was hidden by the Emperor's side, protecting him in secret!\" Ye Ye Gucheng said with a bitter smile!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was over!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Sunflower Ancestor jumping out and severely injuring Ye Ye Gucheng with a single palm, this play of assassinating the Emperor and attempting to usurp the throne came to an end!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor ordered Ye Ye Gucheng to be captured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Ye Ye Gucheng took the initiative to commit suicide, not giving the Emperor a chance to torture him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Sunflower Ancestor nearby possessed peerless Wu Gong, it was not easy for him to stop Ye Ye Gucheng from killing himself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ye Ye Gucheng's corpse was finally carried out, the truth about his diversionary tactics and secret assassination attempt on the Emperor was naturally exposed, which shocked everyone once again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could have imagined that while Ye Ye Gucheng was ostensibly dueling Ximen Ximen Chuixue at the Forbidden City, he was actually running off to assassinate the Emperor in secret!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The duel at the Forbidden City, which had been the hottest topic in the Great Ming Jiang Hu, ended in such an anticlimactic fashion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that's it?

Come with me to see the Emperor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“Huh? His Majesty is looking for me?” Li Li Lianhua was stunned upon hearing Lu Xie Xiaofeng’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What could Zhu Zhu Houzhao possibly want with him at this hour?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after a moment of thought, Li Li Lianhua had no intention of refusing. Instead, he spoke to Wen Hua, indicating the location of the Lotus Building: “You go ahead and wait for me at the Lotus Building!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood, Divine Physician Li!” Upon hearing this, Wen Hua nodded, then immediately left the imperial palace with Yan Shisan, heading in the direction of the Lotus Building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, Li Li Lianhua followed Lu Xie Xiaofeng into the presence of Emperor Zhu Zhu Houzhao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a side hall. Despite the recent assassination attempt by Ye Ye Gucheng, there was no one here guarding the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was only the Emperor and an old, thin-looking eunuch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this old eunuch, Li Li Lianhua thought of Ye Ye Gucheng’s corpse from earlier; it seemed Ye Ye Gucheng had died at the hands of this old eunuch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, having his protection alone was worth more than a thousand troops and horses!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Commoner Li Li Lianhua pays his respects to Your Majesty!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever thoughts were in his mind, Li Li Lianhua did not show them on his face, and he bowed to the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine Physician Li, there is no need for such formalities!” Zhu Zhu Houzhao raised his hand and said with a gentle expression, showing no trace of the rage one would expect after having just been assassinated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, although he looked young, as an Emperor, he certainly possessed depth of character!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine Physician Li, I heard from Lu Xie Xiaofeng earlier that you are intimately familiar with many secrets of the Wu Lin?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is precisely because of you that Lu Xie Xiaofeng was able to discover that the mastermind behind the counterfeit currency case was actually Luo Ma!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Today, I have invited Divine Physician Li here because I have a matter to inquire about!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without any intention of wasting words, after the greetings, Zhu Zhu Houzhao went straight to the point with Li Li Lianhua!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is impossible to know everything under heaven, but I do indeed know a little more than the average person.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wonder, what is it that Your Majesty wishes to ask?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whatever I know, I will certainly not conceal!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Li Lianhua spoke; regardless of what Zhu Zhu Houzhao wanted to ask, he had to at least maintain the proper attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Zhu Houzhao was clearly very satisfied with Li Li Lianhua’s attitude. He nodded slightly and continued: “Tonight, Ye Ye Gucheng used a ruse to lure the tiger away from the mountain to assassinate me. Divine Physician Li is already aware of this matter!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“However, I am certain that there must be other masterminds behind his assassination attempt!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is a pity that Ye Ye Gucheng committed suicide, leaving no living witness!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Therefore, I am asking you, Divine Physician Li, do you have any clues?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asking me about the person behind Ye Ye Gucheng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Zhu Houzhao’s words left Li Li Lianhua stunned. How did he conclude that he would know the mastermind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, Li Li Lianhua did have some guesses about who was behind Ye Ye Gucheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But those were just guesses after all; he had no evidence right now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well? Divine Physician Li? If you know any clues, please inform me!” Seeing Li Li Lianhua pondering without speaking, Zhu Zhu Houzhao pressed further!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said this, he paused slightly and added: “Of course, if Divine Physician Li truly does not know, then consider it as if I never asked, and I will not make things difficult for you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xie Xiaofeng, standing to the side, also looked at Li Li Lianhua with curiosity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had discussed the illogical aspects of Ye Ye Gucheng’s assassination attempt with him twice before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, did he really have clues about the mastermind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rationally, Lu Xie Xiaofeng felt it was impossible for him to know; how could such a secret be known to others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, thinking back to how Li Li Lianhua had casually told him that Luo Ma was the mastermind behind the counterfeit currency case!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Li Li Lianhua could know about that, perhaps it wasn’t impossible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention what Lu Xie Xiaofeng and Zhu Zhu Houzhao were thinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Zhu Zhu Houzhao continue to press him, Li Li Lianhua looked at Zhu Zhu Houzhao and said: “As for who the mastermind is, I cannot produce evidence right now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words made Zhu Zhu Houzhao raise his eyebrows, his eyes lighting up: “So, Divine Physician Li, does this mean you already have a suspect in mind?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And, if you cannot produce evidence now, does that mean you will be able to produce it in the future?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Majesty, if you want to produce evidence, it is actually quite simple: just ask Ye Ye Gucheng himself!” Li Li Lianhua said with an air of matter-of-factness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Li Lianhua…”\u003C\u002Fp>",1667,"2026-06-16T06:58:06.948Z","2026-06-16T07:03:50.255Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","cfa9b5a81cf7600a117c726ce2f89b971f85a5b4068bd5df4b999a8efb80195e","wuxia-master-of-the-lotus-house-starting-with-th-chapter-115","wuxia-master-of-the-lotus-house-starting-with-th-chapter-113",261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwuxia-master-of-the-lotus-house-starting-with-th-cover.jpg"]
