Repugnant Gateway Chapter 179

Heavenly Temple

An Zeng stood outside the door and waited for a while. One imperial court official from the Yan Kingdom after another entered and came out. It was very lively.

An hour pa.s.sed before An Zhe was called in.

The gazes of the ministers who came in and out of the inn were all somewhat strange. Some of them displayed their kind intentions and intimacy, while others had a face as cold as ice.

Ding Yin was actually quite lucky. If his son hadn't provoked an argument, his career might have reached its peak.

Due to the matter involving the Quiet People, almost all the officials of the Ministry of Rites were killed by Mu Changyan.

Of course, Mu Changyan was also making use of this opportunity to wipe out the empress dowager's influence within the imperial court.

Ding Xian hadn't been involved, and since the empress dowager was already dead, the empress dowager had no choice but to pick him up.

If there were no surprises, Ding Yin would soon come into contact with the power center.

Mu Changyan raised her head and looked at An Chou. She didn't even bother to hide the smile on her face.

""I know, you have always been this undisciplined.""

He put down the brush in his hand and pointed to the stool opposite him. ""Others don't have the guts to do things first before reporting them.""

Especially a high official like Ding Jue, a second rank official of the imperial court.

""So, this is also the reason why I like you. You will do things more than others. You know when you shouldn't be so disciplined.""

""It was His Majesty who taught me.""

Mu Changyan rolled her eyes at him, ""What the h.e.l.l, when did I ever teach you?""

""Being able to do something means being able to do it. I will never be stingy with my praises, especially when it comes to not spending money.""

An Xuan said, ""Actually, it's also good to have some silver taels.""

Mu Changyan waved her hand, ""I have everything, but I have no money.""

""As for the reward, you don't have to think about it. Speaking of it, the Sect Leader has recently opened a carriage and horse shop that is much richer than Gu.""

An Zhan smiled embarra.s.sedly. ""Your Majesty knows.""

Mu Changyan said, ""I'm not stupid!""

He lowered his head and didn't say anything.

Of course he knew that it was impossible for Mu Changyan to hide this fact. After all, Madman Qu was the shopkeeper on the surface.

Zhong Jiuge made a secret note not to leak this out.

Madman Qu was someone on the surface, and it was An Zhe who let others see him.

""Great king, carriages and horses do not earn money.""

I just feel that I have to do something for him.

However, if they were to appear in the name of the Heavenly Awakening Sect, they would be crushed to death by the other sects in the capital.

Mu Changyan replied, ""I know your difficulties... There are at least a hundred cultivators in the capital.""

However, the only one who is willing to truly serve the country is your Tian Qi Sect.

""If you allow the Heavenly Ascension Sect to stand out in public, the other sects will hate you, because once the Heavenly Ascension Sect, which has just been established, takes a stand, their established sects will have no choice but to do so.""

""Your Majesty saw through everything,"" An Zaiyue argued.

Mu Changyan said, ""There's nothing else I need to ask you to come over. You can just pull the nail out by yourself and do the rest.""

Originally, the Board of Rites was already in a bad state, and Ding Xian was the last piece of sh * t in the Board of Rites.

""Now that this rat has run out of sh * t, it's time to clean up the Rites Department.""

""Did the king send men to kill Ding Huan?""

Mu Changyan looked at An Zaiyue and asked, ""What else do we do?""

Do you think you're lucky enough to have Ding by a thunderbolt? ""

After taking a sip of tea, he said, ""After Chen Zaiyan entered the palace to see me, I knew that Ding He would definitely go to the brocade palace.""

At this moment, the only one who could save him was the empress dowager.

Moreover, once he entered the brocade palace, it would be extremely difficult for him to move alone.

""As long as he hides in the brocade palace and doesn't come out, the empress dowager might be able to think of some countermeasure to save him.""

""Therefore, he absolutely must not see the empress dowager.""

Mu Changyan replied, ""You've seen him before when he killed Ding Xian.""

For some reason, a name popped up in An Shou's mind: ""It's Chen Shaobai?""

Mu Changyan nodded, ""Yes, that's him.""

An Zhan suddenly understood … All of this was Chen Shaobai's arrangements.

As for the military, they didn't know about the evidence, and the Heavenly Temple didn't know, so only Chen Shaobai would help him.

Even now, An Zhe didn't know why Chen Shaobai helped him so many times.

Mu Changyan said, ""He has already been sent by the orphaned faction to capture the remnants of the Ding Clan. Ding Yin also has a son, Ding Wanqiu, in the Taichi Temple. Although it's unlikely that he knows what his father has done, he still has to capture him.""

""Right, did Ding Shengxia get executed?""

An Zhan shook his head, ""No … He was rescued by someone.""

Mu Changyan frowned. ""It seems that Ding Yin has some accomplices in the capital.""

An Zhan hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still asked, ""Ding Yin still has a daughter called Ding Ningdong … How does the King plan to deal with her?""

Mu Changyan said, ""Other than her, there's also her older brother, Ding Wanqiu.""

Ding Wanqiu had left the Ding Clan a long time ago to cultivate at the Supreme Court, so it was unlikely that she would partic.i.p.ate in this rebellion.

You also know that the old Taoist from the Taoist Priest Palace has come to beg Gu Gu, but Gu has no choice but to give him some face.

So Ding Wanqiu, this person, will not be killed by me, but she must be closely monitored.

""As for Ding Ningdong, she's a pitiful girl.

I heard that Ding Huan didn't like this daughter of his at home, so he often scolded her.

It was only when Ding Ning Dong was taken in by Zhuge Liuyun as a disciple that her att.i.tude changed a little.

It was not that Ding Yin was afraid of Zhuge Liuyun, but he was afraid that his daughter would learn how to raise poisons and poison him to death. ""

Mu Changyan seemed to be in a good mood. Her expression was relaxed as she said, ""Zhuge Liuyun has contributed greatly to Great Yan. He only chose such a disciple after dozens of years, so it's not easy for me to kill him.""

""I'll have the Board of Justice imprison the two of them first, then I'll pardon them later.""

He leaned back and said, ""According to the rules, when it comes to colluding with the enemy and plotting against two felony crimes, we have to execute them all.""

However, the law is nothing but a favor. I don't want to see my young talent die in vain. ""

An Zaiyan relaxed a little after hearing Mu Changyan say that he wouldn't kill Ding Ningdong. ""Your Majesty is merciful.""

Mu Changyan asked, ""I told you earlier, the reward for wanting money is not a single copper coin.""

If you don't want money, I won't be stingy.

""You are already a third-grade trusted uncle. This time, I'll leave it to you to tell me. What do you want?""

An Zou shook his head. ""This subject wants a special pa.s.sage certificate … The horse carriage company is transporting grain and supplies to the military. There are too many checkpoints along the way, so it is inconvenient.""

""And the local officials along the way … their hands and feet are not clean either.""

Mu Changyan said, ""That's nothing. An Chengli, send someone over to the carriage shop to send out a pa.s.s to the Infantry Division. I will get them to pa.s.s the pa.s.s through the checkpoint.""

He looked at An Zhe. ""What else do you want?""

""Nothing.""

Mu Changyan said, ""Don't be so reserved. If you have anything you want to say, just say it.""

He continued, ""There is really nothing. I don't know what I want, so I don't want it.""

Mu Changyan laughed out loud, ""It's not fake. Very good.""

This way, I originally planned to make you a Marquis, but I expected that those people below would still rush out to stop me.

First, I'll appoint you as my uncle, so those people won't say anything.

""Also... Black Tortoise Camp, you can be a deputy commander.""

An Zhan said with a smile, ""Deputy Commander, who is the Commander?""

An Chengli said, ""It was originally mine, but now it's Duan Ren.""

Mu Changyan laughed, ""You two work together in the future, I like the spirit of your work.""

Go back and rest first.

""In addition, in the recent days, you should be more careful. I'm afraid that the brocade palace won't like you even more.""

An Xuan said, ""Your subject remembers. Your subject will go back first.""

When An Zeng left Empyrean Terminus Palace, he didn't quite believe these things and accidentally ascended again.

One had to know that no matter how many years pa.s.sed, they wouldn't be able to hold their t.i.tle. An Zou was only fifteen years old and was already a first-rate uncle.

This firstborn was not the same as the previous eldest, but he had no idea where the feudal feudal fiefdom would be located, and there was a feudal fiefdom in place of the former, but he had no idea where the feudal fiefdom would be located.

As soon as An Zaiyi left the Heavenly Temple, he ran into Chen Zaiyan who was waiting outside the door. This senior who had not left was obviously busy with something important to talk to An Zaiyan about.

An Zaiyan got into Chen Zaiyan's carriage, looked at him carefully before saying, ""There are too many people in the military, so I haven't had a good chat with you recently.""

""War is more important.""

""You don't have to worry about the Ding family,"" Chen said.

What you have to worry about is that Li Changlu, the head eunuch of the brocade palace, has disappeared. The empress dowager is in a rage.

""Thank you for your reminder, sir,"" said An Xuan.

Chen Zaiyan was obviously hesitant to speak, but in the end, he only said a few insignificant words.

An Zaiyan's impression of him was not very good. Even now, An Zaiyan was still suspecting that the death of Hao Ping had something to do with Chen Zaiyan.

Although Mu Changyan said that Hao Ping did commit suicide, he didn't believe him.

How could a person like Hao Ping commit suicide?

He wanted nothing more than to make a difference. He wanted nothing more than to use it for two days. How could he possibly commit suicide?

After sending An Zaiyan to the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect, Chen Zaiyan left. After several attempts, An Zaiyan felt uncomfortable.

At the same time, in a place no one knew, Ding Shengxia was roaring!

""I'm going to kill him!""

""I'm going to kill him!""

Crazy shouts echoed in the already small s.p.a.ce, causing one's ears to tingle.

The scholarly man who looked like a middle-aged scholar quietly watched Ding Shengxia go crazy. After a while, he smiled and said, ""You can't calm down from the hatred of being defeated again. If I tell you that your family is finished, what will happen to you?""

Are you still thinking, even if you lose, your father will definitely take revenge for you, right?

After all, your big brother was killed by that person, and your father will not sit idly by. ""

Ding Shengxia crazily shouted, ""Yes!""

""My father will definitely think of a way to kill him!""

""No … Your father is dead. Your entire family has been taken into prison. If nothing unexpected happens, your Ding family will be executed.""

""From today onwards, you will be the only one left in the Ding Clan.""

""Impossible!""

Ding Shengxia rushed forward and crashed into an invisible wall, before being blasted away.

The refined man smiled and said, ""I like to see only hatred in people's eyes, because only hatred can bring forth true power.

There is nothing left in your life but revenge. ""

He pointed at Ding Shengxia's chest and said, ""In fact, I've already given you an immortal body. Now, the only thing you lack is talent, which is controlled by your bloodline. If you want to become stronger, you need to change your blood. Are you willing?""

Ding Shengxia asked, ""Can the exchange of blood allow me to kill An Zhan?!""

Nineteen nodded. ""Of course.""

Ding Shengxia crawled over, ""Change my blood!""

""This is your choice. Come, give me your blood, and I will take you into a new world.""

He reached out his hand from his sleeve, as if in invitation.

Ding Shengxia, who was blindfolded by the hatred, didn't notice the hand that was like a dead tree. But at this moment, even if he did, he had no way out.

The eyes of the Nineteen Devils were full of hope.
