From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 159 The old man who was deceived by the old eunuch

"Chen Pingping is hiding something from me. Shadow knows all his secrets. Bring him to me!"

This was the first sentence Li Chengqian heard after meeting Emperor Qing.

His voice was very low and his eyes were red, obviously he was suppressing his emotions. On the imperial desk, there were several burnt documents. Judging from the burnt appearance, there was not much content, but it should reveal some important information.

"Hasn't he already left the city?" Facing the overwhelming pressure, Li Chengqian rubbed his brows in annoyance. "Hasn't the ban on my Eastern Palace expired yet?!"

Bang!
With a muffled sound, the imperial desk in front of Emperor Qing exploded into powder. A pair of red eyes stared at Li Chengqian, like a ferocious beast choosing its prey.

Is this the moment when the old man, whose feelings were deceived by the old eunuch, collapses after learning the truth?
It's quite interesting!

"Chen Pingping is dead. Any secrets he hid are unimportant. There are some things no one else can do except him. Shadow is just a sharp blade in his hand. There is nothing to be afraid of."

"I asked you to bring Shadow back!" He stared at Li Chengqian, gritting his teeth, his tone stern.

"Father, you should calm down!"

"boom!"

With a muffled sound, an invisible wave of air surged in, like waves in a raging sea, crashing towards us.

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes slightly and straightened his body. Invisible forces spread out from all sides, like reefs, standing still in the center of the endless air waves.

Then, a palm came across silently. It looked calm, but the palm contained a terrifying aura that seemed to have the ability to destroy.

Li Chengqian sighed helplessly, and his body swayed. The palm passed through Li Chengqian's body and hit nothing.

call! !

A muffled sound of wind was heard, and the dragon-carved pillar where Li Chengqian was standing turned into ashes.

boom! !

What followed was a slight sound, and the beams supported by the pillars collapsed. A large amount of dust rose up, covering the Linhu Hall in a cloud of smoke.

The huge noise attracted the attention of the attendants and guards outside the palace. After a few noisy shouts, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps.

"Everyone, get out! No one is allowed to come in." Emperor Qing's voice became increasingly cold and hard.
She was deceived by an old eunuch and her son was disobedient. She wanted to teach him a lesson, but found that she could do nothing about him.

He is now like a volcano that may erupt at any time and crack at any time.

"Father, if you really want to fight, go somewhere else and I'll fight with you. But now's not the time. Is Chen Pingping enough to make you lose your composure?"

"It seems that your wings are really strong." Emperor Qing said in a bad tone.

"It's not that I've grown too independent, but I just can't understand. Since you've determined that Chen Pingping harbored evil intentions, isn't his death a good thing? As for what Chen Pingping had planned, with his death, everything has vanished into thin air. Shadow has left, carrying his secrets with him. Isn't that a better thing?"

"Something better?"

"Isn't that right? No matter what Chen Pingping wanted to do, he was able to keep it a secret from you, which shows that he was very careful in doing this. There are almost no people in this world who are more meticulous and cautious than Chen Pingping. What will happen if something that even Chen Pingping has to be so cautious and secretive falls into Shadow's hands?"

"This……"

"The more he does that he cannot control, the more he will be exposed. The more he is exposed, the more beneficial it will be for us. Therefore, I think that we can catch him in one fell swoop when he reveals everything." Having said that, Li Chengqian glanced at Emperor Qing, "So, I can understand your father's feelings of being deceived, but I cannot understand why he is so furious." "I..." Emperor Qing was speechless for a moment. He suddenly felt that his son was too strong and too smart, which was not a good thing. One day, he would be pissed to death by him.

After a long silence, he said, "Did you already know that you were the one who did what happened to Chen Pingping?!"

"What does it have to do with me?" Li Chengqian curled his lips. "To me, Chen Pingping is nothing but a pile of bones in a grave, easily destroyed. It's only for my father's sake that I haven't given him too much trouble."

"Really?!" Emperor Qing looked at him deeply.

"Of course it's true." Li Chengqian responded with a smile.

"Yes, your scheming is getting deeper and deeper." Emperor Qing nodded, and the aura around him restrained and gradually returned to normal.

He looked up at the ruined Linhu Palace and said, "Someone come!"

Suddenly, a large group of people rushed into the palace gate.

"Clean up," Emperor Qing said casually, and then said to Li Chengqian, "Let's go to another place."

"Yes!"

A moment later, the two of them walked in my garden, one in front and one behind.

This place is Zhuoyuan
It was originally a garden in the cold palace, and its biggest feature is its size.

This is the largest garden in the palace, but also the most desolate one.

However, Emperor Qing seemed to like this place very much. After Li Chengqian revealed his strength as a grandmaster, he often brought him here to talk and test his abilities.

"Now that Zhuge is dead, who do you think is suitable to go to the Supervisory Council?" Emperor Qing asked.

"Chen Pingping is dead now. Is there any need for the Overwatch Council to still exist?" Li Chengqian glanced at Emperor Qing and asked, "Father, what was the purpose of establishing the Overwatch Council back then? I don't care what Chen Pingping thought at the time, but for you, I'm afraid you simply wanted to use the Overwatch Council to stabilize the court at the time, right?"

"I had this idea at that time." Emperor Qing raised his brows slightly, obviously surprised by Li Chengqian's answer.

"An institution like the Supervisory Council, independent of the Imperial Court, is inherently abnormal. When you ascended the throne, the Imperial Court was unstable. Most importantly, the positions in the Imperial Court were already filled, leaving many of your people with nowhere to go. That's why you established the Supervisory Council, using its power to replace the old with the new and intimidate the Imperial Court. But now? The Imperial Court has long been stable, and the Supervisory Council is no longer necessary."

"Over the years, the Supervisory Commission has played a very important role."

"That's because you're using it so easily." Li Chengqian smiled. "The eight major departments of the Supervisory Council cover everything from supervising officials to assassinations, developing medicines and instruments, and even business. They're all-encompassing and overseeing everything, which has already made them quite unpopular. Chen Pingping used to be the one who handled it, but now that Chen Pingping is gone, even if I don't bring it up, someone in the court will soon."

"So what do you think?!"

"Tear it down, don't ask me how. It's your business." Li Chengqian smiled. "I'm still in confinement, and Ruoruo hasn't given birth yet. At least until the baby is born, you have to leave me alone."

"You still want peace and quiet?" Emperor Qing's mood seemed to improve a little. He changed the subject and said, "Chengning has done a good job in the northwest, but he is a little impatient. Building a city thousands of miles away is definitely not a one-day job!"

"My eldest brother has his own ideas, but it's time for him to come back. I'm going to be a father, and it's not right for him, the eldest brother, to be single. It's time for him to get married!"

"Yeah, I think so too, that's why we're marrying into Northern Qi this time. But Chengning has always been a very opinionated person, so I don't know if it's appropriate."

"No matter whether it's suitable or not, if it's not suitable, we can change it." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "Anyway, we and Northern Qi will become one family sooner or later."
