Chapter 1005: Zhang Ronghua’s Final Kill
With the ability she had displayed, as well as her status, she was the most dazzling political star in the Great Xia Dynasty. She was favored by the emperor and was so popular that she was purple. It was enough for her to appear personally.
This way, Du Chengming’s speech, including the conversation in the voice recording stone, would make sense.
However, there was one thing that was most suspicious, but it was still valid.
It wasn’t that he looked down on Du Chengming, but how could he find traces of the Ninth Princess or the men in black? Even if they found out, they couldn’t hide it, let alone send the news back.
He deduced that this was a conspiracy, a huge conspiracy against him!
The Ninth Princess was real. Du Chengming didn’t dare to lie about this. Otherwise, the price would be too high for him to bear. Now that he was caught, combined with the speculation of the higher-ups, he didn’t take the initiative to be caught. Instead, he walked into the trap and used Du Chengming’s hands to sacrifice her to get rid of him.
If that was the case, the scene before him could be explained.
There was only one question left. Why did the people of the Shang Dynasty hate him so much? He would rather sacrifice a princess and a favored one to kill her?
He couldn’t figure it out, and he couldn’t understand it!
Other than that.
With Du Chengming’s strength alone, he was unable to set up a perfect trap in such a short period of time. He was also unable to take out three fey formulas, one of which was a heaven-grade formula. The Empress and the others should take action and play an important role in it.
Thinking of this.
Zhang Ronghua’s heart was very cold. In order to get rid of her political enemies and satisfy her selfish desires, the Empress actually allied with the enemy. She deserved to be killed!
He felt that something was wrong!
The Ninth Princess had sacrificed a lot for the benefit of the Shang Dynasty, but she still wanted to get rid of him. If he died, she could bite back and expose the Empress and the others. Even if there was no evidence, their identities were sensitive. How could Emperor Xia be lenient when it involved such an important matter?
At that time, Great Xia would become chaotic, killing two birds with one stone.
Moreover…
It was impossible for the Empress to not think of this, and she would not leave any evidence behind.
If the Ninth Princess had set up a trap and sent someone to inform Du Chengming, then the latter would use the Empress and the others to send a powerful cultivator to go through the motions. In this way, there would be no future trouble and a great merit.
Although they didn’t openly join forces, it made sense that they had secretly reached an agreement.
He was secretly glad that Zheng Yi had acted fast enough to send the news of the Bi Fangjie to him in advance. He had obtained the evidence and grasped the key to breaking the situation. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to defend himself today.
” I’m not flustered. I’m calm and collected.”” I’m upright and upright. What’s wrong with that?”
Du Cheng Ming mocked.” You still dare to be so stubborn even when death is near. When Shang Qingxuan arrives, we’ll see how you explain yourself!”
The irrelevant people sat on the wall and watched the show quietly.
Zhang Ronghua’s faction, as well as Pei Caicai, Ding Yi, Huo Jingxiu, and the others, trusted him without reservation. On the imperial platform, the Crown Prince was expressionless, not showing any of his thoughts on his face. He guessed that this matter was very likely related to them, but how could Shang Qingxuan explain it? He couldn’t figure it out, but it didn’t stop him from feeling angry.
The three generations of the Zhang Clan’s Imperial Army had long been marked with the mark of Great Xia. Anyone could betray them, but they would not.
He waited patiently, wanting to see if this Shang Qingxuan was real.
As time ticked by, the atmosphere in the palace hall did not weaken. Instead, it became increasingly solemn. As the palace door opened, a ” Yiya ” sound could be heard. Two Human Emperor Guards escorted Shang Qingxuan forward and stopped three steps away from the imperial platform.
Her cultivation had been crippled, and her hands and feet were chained with ten-thousand-year-old Darksteel. As if they had discussed it beforehand, she kicked her calf.
Bang!
The ground shook as Shang Qingxuan knelt on the ground.
The Human Emperor Guards retreated.
“Presumptuous!” Du Chengming shouted. Hurry up and kowtow when you see His Majesty.”
Shang Qingxuan seemed to have not heard him. She raised her head, her beautiful eyes landing on the Xia Emperor.” Give this Queen a quick death!”
Wei Shang nodded his head subtly, as if to say that the person before him was the ninth princess of the Shang Dynasty, Shang Qingxuan.
“Tell me everything that happened last night in detail!” the Xia Emperor ordered.
Shang Qingxuan was unmoved, treating it as a passing wind as she raised her head proudly.
“Your Majesty!” Du Chengming suggested. This woman is stubborn and won’t confess if she doesn’t receive a heavy punishment.”
“Jiu Xuanji!” the Xia Emperor said.
Jiu Xuanji stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
“Take her away for interrogation and pry open her mouth!”
“Yes, sir!” Jiu Xuanji was excited. He had been too lucky recently, and he had obtained another great merit.
With a wave of his hand, two Human Emperor Guards stepped forward and lifted her up from the ground, bringing her along as they rushed towards Nether Prison.
The door closed.
The officials knew that the main event was coming, so they ignored it and patiently watched the biggest fight of the year!
The princes were gloating over Zhang Ronghua’s fall. The Crown Prince had suffered a great loss, and his influence in the court had been reduced to the lowest.
Du Chengming blew the battle horn.” Zhang Ronghua has committed treason. The evidence is conclusive. Your Majesty, please take down this person and kill all his relatives. Bring everyone to the market and behead them for public display!” Then, suspend Pei Caicai, Chen Youcai, Ding Yi, Xu Xing, and the others. See if any of them have sided with the Shang Dynasty. If they have, kill all nine of their families!”
His people immediately stood up to support the proposal. When the other political enemies saw this scene, they also jumped out, as well as the forces of the princes.
For a moment.
Zhang Ronghua and the others had become rats that everyone wanted to kill.
When the remaining officials saw this scene, they thought to themselves, How ruthless!
With the help of this treason case, Zhang Ronghua and Pei Caihua’s faction were all uprooted. As for Ding Yi and Huo Jingxiu, they were completely chasing after the rabbit, waiting for enough political chips to be exchanged before letting them go.
