I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 179 Looking for Dragon Fish

The older you get, the less courage you get.

Once, for the sake of the imperial throne, Emperor Wan Jing forcibly crossed the thundering sea, narrowly escaped death and went to the Taoist sect, plundering everything at all costs.

And now, he is also hiding in the palace for the sake of the imperial throne, unable to leave.

But this time, he has no choice but to leave. Shangjiang City is in danger.

Calculating the entire Daxing Dynasty, there were not even one thousand but eight hundred capable people who could be entrusted. And he just happened to pick the leader of the rebels and directly gave away the military power.

This time he was really anxious.

He was urgently transferred to the court to worship him, and followed him out of the palace, vowing to put down the rebellion.

But when he rushed to the battlefield, the situation was not what he thought: King An led his team to ambush the elite of the court.

Instead, he worked very hard to get a group of government-controlled troops to actively rescue the people.

Everything looked normal, except for King An...

All the ministers came to pay their respects. Regardless of whether their bodies and faces were really gray or freshly plastered, they all looked like they were working very hard. They straightened their backs and waited for the emperor's approval.

It's a pity that Emperor Wan Jing is just staring at King An, and he shouted angrily: "Why? Why betray me!"

King An rebelled!
  Everyone was shocked and looked over quickly, only to find that King An looked unstable, as if he had never thought about running away.

He bowed politely and asked, "Why did your father say this? Haven't I been here to help the people?"

"Bastard!"

Emperor Wan Jing waved his hand, and golden light passed by, sending King An flying several meters away: "You are not King An, you don't have the [Imperial Law] on you, where is King An now!"

No [Edict]? But when fighting Ying Changfeng before, it was obvious that he had it!
  Everyone took a closer look and found that the helmet was flying off at this moment, and his appearance was indeed slightly different from that of King An.

Their faces turned pale. Could it be that when they were rescuing the people, they left a substitute and ran away secretly?

He wanted to question the man he was pretending to be, but found that a line of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He actually committed suicide by taking poison.

What a rebellion!

Thinking back to the Tsing Yi Department's attempt to arrest someone just now, but they worked together to stop it. Didn't everyone present become accomplices?
  Emperor Wan Jing glared at them with angry eyes: "A bunch of trash! Don't you know you were fooled? Cao An is right, you are as stupid as pigs!"

When the emperor pointed his nose at them and scolded them, the officials could only lower their eyes and say nothing, thinking that they were blind and swallowing a lot of bitterness.

Do you want to say they are incompetent?

It doesn't count, because if Qiao Yundong hadn't revealed before his death that the eldest son was not Prince An's biological son, Cao An would never have imagined that Prince An would be so cruel.

Similarly, Cao An could not use this inexplicable last words as evidence to convince the officials, so he simply let Emperor Wan Jing handle it himself without wasting words.

Who is the stupidest person in the situation at hand, it is undoubtedly Emperor Wan Jing.

He is your son, and you gave him the position of commander-in-chief. Among a group of subordinates, who dares to make random guesses that he is a traitor to the party?
  Seeing that King An did not do anything drastic during this trip, he was just mobilizing the army to appease the people dutifully. At most, he was just doubtful for a while. What else could he do?

Cao An guessed that the officials did not dare to move, so he asked them to report to Emperor Wan Jing.

Who is Emperor Wan Jing? There are more people he is wary of than the concubines in his harem. As long as Cao An reminds them, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, the military power will be completely withdrawn.

Now that King An has run away, the guilt of the rebellion has been confirmed, but what will happen next?

The pillar of the Immortal Tomb suddenly lifted up, and I didn't know if it would be able to soften back later.

Now the whole city is searching for King An? God knows where he went.

Just when everyone was in trouble, Pang Shi finally led the team back.

They don't have the shortcut ability of Cao An, but being able to return now can be regarded as a big relief for Emperor Wanjing.

After all, the Pang family and his son have the most say in the ghost market. As soon as they arrived, they initiated emergency contact and asked the gangsters in the ghost market to cooperate behind the scenes. The chaotic situation could be much better.

Of course, that's all.

When Pang Shi heard that King An had rebelled, he also felt numb.

"It seems that Cao An found out the clues from Qiao Yundong. It's a pity that he still missed the mark."

Pang Shi led the prince and described the events of the winter hunting in detail to Emperor Wan Jing.

Cao An first rescued the Iron Mask of the Privy Council, and then found out the truth about the death invitation. After that, he led the Tsing Yi Department to jump into the abyss without hesitation, sealed the gate of hell, and took a shortcut back to capture King An.

It can be said that Cao An relied on his own efforts to catch up at the last moment, moved back a step, and prepared to take the initiative to attack King An before he could escape.

"It's a pity that a great situation has been ruined by you." Emperor Wan Jing was still angry and glared at the generals who had just helped King An escape.

It's a good thing that Cao An isn't here, otherwise he would definitely be laughed at.

The commander-in-chief appointed by the emperor is titled Prince An, so he is a relative of the emperor!

Questioning the attack is treason, believing that helping is useless, are they not human inside and out?

As the commander-in-chief of the Imperial City, Pang Shi naturally knew the pain of accompanying a king like a tiger, so he quickly came to everyone's rescue.

"Your Majesty, let's give you all a chance to make meritorious service. The most important thing now is to find a way to solve the dilemma."

"Well, what do you think of King An's actions?"

"I don't know yet, but I think it's not that simple."

King An took over the post of commander-in-chief and came here to provide disaster relief. On the surface, it seemed that there was no problem at all.

But if something goes wrong, there will be a monster, so you have to be on guard!

"It would be great if Cao An was here. If he could find out about King An, he must know some inside information." Pang Shi sighed, and then his expression changed: "Maybe, I know what King An is planning."

"Oh? What's your plan?"

"He wants to use military power to alienate the generals. The Tsing Yi Department is the first one, and there may be more in the future." Emperor Wan Jing's expression also changed slightly: "Quickly, count the positions of all the teams!"

Pang Shi's reaction was not slow, but unfortunately, King An was faster and had already made arrangements to escape.

After some statistics, more than a dozen squads of the Forbidden Army were transferred away. They were all sent out in the name of rescuing the people, and they have not returned yet.

These teams all agreed to the transfer orders after seeing the military symbols. The leader was undoubtedly King An's subordinate.

At this moment, he has not returned to the team and has no idea about the changes in King An's rebellion. He is still diligently performing special tasks.

For example, ambush Si Tianjian...

"Oops! There's a fire in the direction of Si Tianjian."

"Oops, they want to disrupt Shangjiang City. Pang Hong, go to Sitian Prison yourself and see the situation in the prison."

Shangjiang City is in turmoil, and many people are still confused. At this time, a group of forbidden troops suddenly come to kill you. What will you do?

Of course, run! Si Tianjian was one of those who ran far away.

Even if he knew something was going on in the Immortal Palace and expected that Emperor Wan Jing would not kill the donkey, he would still hesitate when he saw the imperial army coming to kill him.

Just hesitation is enough.

By the time the eunuch was arranging for the disciples to evacuate and return to public view, the Immortal Palace was already in danger.

King An's move was just to throw dirty water on his own father.

He knew that these generals and ministers were not easy to fool, and it was impossible to carry out large-scale operations.

He simply used the emperor's name to attack the major forces who didn't know the truth, causing a brief bloodbath and forcing the whole city to turmoil.

Just imagine if Cao An failed to find out the truth in advance.

When the Tsing Yi Department comes back for reinforcements, suddenly the Forbidden Army blocks the way and asks you to surrender. If you don't surrender, you will be stabbed with a knife. I am afraid that Cao An and the others will be forced to rebel.

Fortunately, there is still hope as long as Cao An is still alive. He will definitely be able to see through King An's conspiracy.

I just don’t know, what is the Tsing Yi Department doing now?
  ……

"Are you lying to children?"

In the Huangquan fork in the road, Xiao Jiu looked at the group of strange squid in front of him very impatiently.

You agreed to help me with a small amount of help, but why are you helping me more and more?
  Xiaojiu: "It's so annoying~~ Can I go home?"

Cao An: "No, be good, it will be over soon."

Ying Huorong: "Xiaojiu is the best, keep at it."

Zhu Xian: "After I go back, I will eat enough candied haws."

Sanyang: "Amitabha, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

Xiaojiu: "...We Ksitigarbha, don't we pay attention to helping people reincarnate? When did we start saving people?"

The Tsing Yi Department now all revolves around Xiao Jiu, because they have discovered that Xiao Jiu is like a wishing well, immune to ghosts and evil spirits, and wherever he goes, there is a path.

As he chased Jin Xu wildly, all the ghosts gave way, and some even knelt down and kowtowed, so there was no need to worry at all.

"But if we keep running, it's not enough! Where are we going?" Zhu Xian, who lacked exercise, was already a little out of breath. It was really embarrassing for a warrior.

On the other hand, Red Fox, since he came here, has been showing up from time to time in high spirits, chasing Jin Xiu more actively than anyone else.

"We are going to find Arowana's children."

child?

Everyone was stunned, no wonder Red Fox was so excited.

Following along, no one asked, and the red fox started muttering excitedly.

"You don't know that in the demon world, dragon fish have a very high status. It's a pity that their ability to give birth to offspring is so poor."

"Pregnant by yourself?"

"Yes, arowanas are all female and rely on their own demon power to crystallize. The time chosen is very strange. Arowanas all over the world seem to be conceived in the same year."

There is a wonderful connection between arowana and fish. They will make an appointment to give birth at the same time like a group of mothers joining in the fun.

The silver arowana on the holy mountain has given birth to offspring, so it stands to reason that this golden arowana will also give birth to offspring.

I just didn't expect that, being suppressed under the Immortal Tomb and being shrouded in bad luck all year round, she could actually complete the pregnancy. It was really amazing.

Seeing Red Fox's excited look, Cao An was a little amused: "You said that you are a demon clan yourself, why would you want to adopt other demon clan descendants? How strange?"

Cao An's incomprehensible question was met with an even more incomprehensible question from Red Fox: "Isn't it normal for me to adopt an arowana?"

"normal?"

"Of course, didn't you also keep Hua Zhi in your backyard? I saw you entering her house last night, and the noise lasted until late at night."

Everyone:? ? ?
  "Ahem, don't look at me. The reason for the commotion is because I had a quarrel with Hua Zhi."

"A fight?" Zhu Xian stood aside, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Really, it was just some 'squabble' that happened. "

"It's a quarrel~~What happens next?"

"More on... good bottles will come in waves."
