C255 Open Your Eyes
This was originally a huge matter.
But because it was Xiao Yun who ran away, no one cared.
At least His Majesty did not care.
But His Majesty was a little puzzled as to what he was going to do when he ran out.
However, as time passed, several days had passed, and Xiao Yun still hadn't returned.
This caused His Majesty to lose some face, so he specially sent a eunuch to Xiao family to demand for ___.
But... Xiao Yun naturally would not be in Xiao family.
His Majesty hurriedly sent people to search everywhere, but after searching the entire capital, he did not find any news of Xiao Yun.
It was as if this person had disappeared into thin air.
According to His Majesty's guess, it was not that Xiao Yun did not want to come back and ran away.
Because there was no need at all!
What could possibly happen?
It was originally a symbolic punishment. What he had originally done, which one of them was not more serious than this?
If he did not return after such a long time, he was afraid that... he would be in danger!
Xiao Huai'en also had the same thought.
Of course, it was also different from what His Majesty thought.
He knew what his grandson was capable of.
In addition to Shangguan Qing'er's description, he could naturally imagine that Xiao Yun wanted to create evidence that he was not present and take the opportunity to do something.
Currently, Xiao Yun really didn't have many enemies. There was only one, Zhao Wuji.
But a few days later.
He heard that Zhao Wuji had gone to court.
And his grandson had yet to return...
Xiao Huai'en muttered in his heart.
A few days later.
Xiao Huai'en realized something was wrong.
He even subconsciously thought about the worst-case scenario.
And so, in the morning.
Xiao Huai'en carried his saber and headed straight to the Imperial Palace while the Great Dynasty Meeting was still ongoing.
Along the way, he hacked down dozens of Imperial Guards and smashed open three palace gates.
Bringing his saber with him, he went to the palace!
In the main hall, his majesty was burning with anger and shouted loudly to stop him.
But Xiao Huai'en did not care.
He had been silent for too many years.
He had also been a good person for too many years.
This caused the entire world to forget that he was Old Devil Xiao, the peerless overlord of the northern Wei border. When the people of the northern Wei heard Xiao Huai'en's name, their legs and stomachs would tremble.
He had once been fearless and had cut down His Majesty's imperial messengers three times in front of the formation, and had rejected His Majesty's golden orders seven times.
He had slaughtered two hundred thousand prisoners of North Wei in one battle and became a god of slaughter. This had also created the title of Mad Devil!
Now, in the great hall, he held the Thousand Slaughter in his hand. His blood was green in color, and he had abandoned the art of immortality. He had cut down the yellow dragon with a single saber!
None of the seventy-two generals in the entire court could get close to the front. The guards in front of the thirty-six halls blocked the saber edge, and four of the twelve black clothed secret envoys were knocked down.
It was only when Zhao Wuji's right arm was cut off that they were subdued and their weapons were placed in the air.
At that moment, the smell of blood spread across the holy palace.
On the golden armor, blood fell to the ground, and tears fell.
His Majesty didn't order people to kill him, but instead took him out and locked him up in the imperial prison.
The prerequisite for the Palace was to write for six hours. In the end, he drew a circle on the paper and set the Imperial Decree for Winter's Inquisition.
He did not want to kill him, but he had no choice but to.
Xiao Huai'en had violated the taboo of almost all imperial families. If he didn't establish his authority, the imperial family would lose all face. How could they convince the public then? How could he sit firmly in this great hall?
But at the same time, His Majesty did not take any action.
He did not even cripple Xiao Wansheng's official position.
Qing'er finished speaking.
Xiao Yun was stunned.
After a long time, he sighed and said, "Grandfather is already so old, why is he still so impulsive? If I really wanted to kill Old Man Zhao, how could I wait until today? I kept him because I needed to have an enemy in the Imperial Court... Sigh."
Then he smiled bitterly and said," I didn't expect this old man to be so skilled in martial arts. To think that he could barge into the Imperial House alone and enter as he pleased. I really didn't expect that. "
"Young Master, what time is it? You can still laugh?"
Qing'er couldn't help but mutter.
However, with Xiao Yun's return and his attitude, it gave people a sense of security for no reason.
This made Qing'er feel that as long as Xiao Yun was by her side, even if it was a huge matter, she could still handle it.
Xiao Yun lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked, "Did anyone plead for the old man at that time?"
"Yes."
Qing'er said, "Old Master Leng had said something at that time, and his attitude was very tough. In the end, he was chased out by His Majesty."
Xiao Yun said, "Leng family is indeed not bad. Now I really don't know who owes whom our families."
Then he asked, "What about Shangguan family?"
Shangguan Qing'er shook her head silently.
Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Don't take it to heart. After all, this kind of thing requires the fate of the entire family to be suppressed. Not everyone dares to do it."
"The current Shangguan family is indeed lacking some military courage."
Xiao Yun smiled bitterly. He didn't know about the so-called courage, but there was one thing that he was sure of.
Sometimes, he would forget that the Shangguan family was his mother's home.
"Who else is there besides him?"
"There's no one else. I heard that they were all frightened. A few of the people who wanted to protect them all suffered different degrees of injuries."
"Hmm..."
Xiao Yun nodded and asked again, "Are there any dead people?"
"Two people from the Imperial Guards died, and one of the Black Guards died."
"One of the Black Guards was killed? The old man is really powerful."
Shangguan Qing'er sighed and said, "The old man once charged in and out of the North Wei grand formation with a single slash. In the history of the Qin Country, there were people who could kill more than a hundred people in a single battle. The other two were things that happened hundreds of years ago. In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that he had killed too many prisoners, the old master would have been known as the War God. And not the Old Devil"
"So that's how it is..."
Xiao Yun couldn't help but feel shocked in his heart.
He knew that his grandfather's physique was still very good, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful!
He thought that his grandfather was just leading troops to fight a war and had some ability in arranging troops and formations. He didn't expect that his personal bravery was also so terrifying!
Taking a deep breath, he raised his head to look at the fluttering white silk in the house and waved his hand, saying, "All of you, retreat. Bad luck."
The Xiao family regained its peace in a short period of time.
Xiao Yun wasn't in a hurry. He had a meal and changed his clothes. He asked someone to settle Third Zhang's family down properly.
Third Zhang and his family were dumbfounded.
Even if they did not know many things and their information was blocked, they still knew about the Xiao family!
That was a big family in the Qin Country, and it was originally impossible for them to get in touch with the Old Master.
Furthermore, this courtyard was too big, and the house was too good.
When they just entered, they didn't know where their feet landed.
The bricks on the ground could not wait to be cleaner than their beds. After years of cleaning and wiping, it gave off a jade-like luster. When their feet stepped on it, they would leave behind a clear imprint. It was especially dazzling.
It was as if they had appeared in the Xiao mansion in ragged clothes.
Xiao Yun naturally couldn't be bothered with their awkwardness, but Ling Long happened to see it. She, who was dressed like a servant girl, jumped in front of them and revealed a big smile. Then she said, "You are the people the young master brought back, right? The Young Master has just arrived and has many things to do. Come with me first. Don't be so reserved, just treat this place as your own home. "
Third Zhang was stunned. He stared blankly at Ling Long. He really didn't think that there would be such a beautiful girl in this world. Little Cui in the village was already very beautiful. All the villages in the area had their eyes on her, but compared to this girl in front of him... The difference was like heaven and earth!
It was precisely because she was stunned that Mother Zhang suddenly walked over and gave him a slap in the face.
Ever since Third Zhang grew up, Mother Zhang had almost never hit him.
That was why she was struck dumb. She covered her face and stood there in a daze, not saying a word.
Mother Zhang said angrily, "Is there a hook in the dog's eyes? What is your identity? Why are you staring at the girl's face? Is that something you can see?! "
Third Zhang suddenly understood.
What kind of place was this?
This was the Xiao family!
The Prime Minister's gatekeeper, a rank 3 official.
When the maidservants of the Xiao family arrived at their place, even the county magistrate had to go out to welcome them. He was very polite and considerate.
From his point of view, it was indeed rude of him to do so.
He hurriedly lowered his head, but he was somewhat unconvinced.
After all, Xiao Yun had a pretty good relationship with him. He usually talked and laughed, and he even treated Xiao Yun as his older brother.
In other words, your young master is very good to me. Why do I have to take a beating when I see a servant in your family?
