Chapter 431 Let the Emperor Die

The information panel shows today's updated information:
[Complete sect missions today: 2]

[Amount of information available: 2]

[Intelligence 1: The Six Gates Constable is having a headache lately. His four most famous detectives are all away. Zhuying died in Dongzhou, Qinfeng is locked in a difficult battle in Changzhou, Canxin has gone to Qingzhou to rescue the princess, and Zhenlei is trapped in a mysterious case in Chengzhou. The Constable senses that the atmosphere in the court is not right, but he has no one to turn to. If you can help him resolve his troubles, you will surely be grateful and be given a valuable position.]

[Intelligence 2: The Daqian Emperor, Zhao Youzhao, suddenly drowned while on a boat in the lake the day before yesterday. After being rescued, he caught a cold and his condition is inexplicably worsening. Factory Master Wang Jin is ordering the imperial physician to treat him, but he is unaware that Zhao Youzhao will not survive more than sixty days. If you can give Zhao Youzhao the healing talisman water to drink, you will be promoted by him.]

These two pieces of information are undoubtedly of great value.

The first piece of information at least let Liang Jin know that Canxin, one of the Four Famous Constables, actually went to Qingzhou to rescue Princess Kangning Zhao Xiling.

Now that he knew about this, Liang Jin could use the feature of [Thousand Mile Tracking] to lock onto Canxin's location in time and make preparations early.

The second piece of information really shocked Liang Jin.

The emperor is actually going to die!

And now the only one who can save the emperor is myself!
This is shocking news!

The current emperor had three sons and three daughters, but most of these children died young and only one daughter grew up.

But the only Princess Kangning, Zhao Xiling, was still under house arrest by the Taiping Dao.

If the emperor died at this time and there was no crown prince who could succeed him normally, it would inevitably lead to chaos in the world.

Judging from the current situation in Daqian, when the time comes, heroes will rise up and compete for the world, and war will follow.

Even the imperial guards would lose their allegiance and object of protection, and would fall into chaos.

This matter is simply too serious.

It was so important that Liang Jin only felt his own power, which seemed so insignificant in the face of such a major event.

He had already made a life plan and bought a house in Beijing to prepare for his future life.

And when he becomes stronger, he will let Su Lian and Zhao Bao leave the palace so that the three of them can live a normal life.

But now this important information has disrupted Liang Jin's plan.

He knew that if the entire Daqian fell into turmoil, it would be unrealistic for an individual like him to seek stability in the capital.

It will be very troublesome then!

Fortunately, Liang Jin foresaw this matter in advance.

"Sixty days, the emperor can only live for another two months."

"And in this world, I am the only one who can save him."

"So... to save him, or not to save him?"

Liang Jin couldn't help but feel conflicted.

Saving the emperor and not saving the emperor are two completely different paths.

Liang Jin must decide which path to take and clarify the direction as early as possible so that he will not be in a rush in his subsequent actions.

"Perhaps, the system has already given me the answer."

Liang Jin carefully read the information from the two systems and had a rough idea in his mind.

The first piece of information is that as long as you help the God Catcher, you will "earn his gratitude and reuse."

The second piece of information is that as long as you save the emperor, you will be "promoted by him."

Just by comparing these two pieces of information, we can roughly see the personalities of the two people.

The God of Capture will obviously be more grateful to those who help him in times of need.

The emperor, on the other hand, was much more heartless and disloyal.

However, this is completely understandable. If an imperial physician cured the emperor's illness, the emperor would only promote and reward the imperial physician, but would not entrust him with important tasks or express excessive gratitude.

There is never a shortage of people around the emperor who are willing to sacrifice their lives for him, so the emperor is no longer easily moved by the efforts of others. After all, in the emperor's view, such efforts are made voluntarily by others.

Anyone who is highly valued by the emperor must be someone he favors or has great potential.

So Liang Jin saved the emperor's life, and in the emperor's view, Liang Jin was only offering medicine in order to seek glory and wealth.

At most, it could make the emperor value Liang Jin's medical skills and summon Liang Jin into the palace to treat the royal family.

If you want Liang Jin to become a high-ranking official and participate in governing the country, or give Liang Jin military power to lead troops to fight, that is simply unrealistic.

Another point is that even if Liang Jin wanted to save the emperor, it would not be that easy.

As a soldier of the imperial guards, it was extremely difficult for him to see the emperor on a normal day.

What's more, the emperor doesn't even live in the palace now, but in a new house outside the palace.

When the emperor fell ill, countless people in the world wanted to be credited with curing him. Liang Jin wanted to give the emperor a healing water, but he had to beg for help and find connections to get this opportunity.

Liang Jin would rather not have this opportunity.

"Saving the emperor would bring too little benefit, so let's not save him!"

Liang Jin decided to let the emperor die.

But if the emperor dies, someone has to succeed him.

If Liang Jin could know in advance who would become the new emperor, he would definitely not stand on the wrong side in this turbulent situation.

"No, my status is too low, and I can't access information from the upper echelons."

"If there are serious errors in the information, it will lead to serious deviations."

Liang Jin couldn't help but feel helpless.

Identity determines status, and status determines information.

Given Liang Jin's current position, it is destined that he will find it difficult to truly understand the situation in the court.

Judging from the information Liang Jin currently has and the situation around him, he feels that among the people he knows, only three have the potential to be promoted.

The first one is Princess Kangning Zhao Xiling.

The second one is Huaiyang King Zhao Yu.

The third one is Yu Linglong, the leader of Hualongmen.

Among them, Liang Jin felt that Yu Linglong was the least likely.

Even though Yu Linglong has always wanted to restore her country, her current abilities are obviously not enough to achieve her goal quickly.

Zhao Xiling is the second possibility, but Zhao Xiling is now far away from the center of power and does not even have freedom.

Then the one with the most hope is Zhao Yu.

Just as Liang Jin was immersed in thinking about the future situation, all kinds of thoughts were intertwined in his mind like a tangled mess.

Suddenly, a sharp and abrupt voice sounded like thunder:

"Hey!!! Liang Jin!!!"

"I've been calling you for ages! Are you fucking deaf? What are you staring at?"

This sudden sound instantly pulled Liang Jin out of the abyss of contemplation.

He suddenly came to his senses and realized that the soldiers around him were all looking at him curiously.

In the distant training ground, a middle-aged officer was shouting at himself at the top of his lungs with a flushed face.

Liang Jin narrowed his eyes slightly and took a closer look. Suddenly, he felt annoyed because this middle-aged officer was his old rival, Fang Qianfeng, the president of the Imperial Guards.

At this moment, Fang Qianfeng's face, which was not kind to begin with, became even uglier. He stretched out his thick fingers, pointed viciously at Liang Jin, and shouted at the top of his voice:
"Liang Jin! Don't you always brag about how good you are at practicing the Imperial Guards Long Fist?"

"Come out here if you've got the guts! Stand right here, and let's have a proper duel!"

Fang Qianfeng's hatred for Liang Jin is hard to let go.

Last time, he wanted to cause trouble for Liang Jin and teach this ignorant boy a lesson.

However, he never expected that Liang Jin cleverly took advantage of the palace rules and slapped him hard in front of everyone.

Those slaps were like brand marks, deeply engraved on Fang Qianfeng's pillar of shame. Every time he thought of them, it felt like a thorn in his throat, and he couldn't swallow the anger.

He knew in his heart that if he wanted to get back at the scene and regain his dignity, he had to knock Liang Jin to the ground and make him look foolish in front of everyone.

To this end, he has been working very hard recently, studying and practicing diligently day and night, and devoting almost all his time and energy to martial arts training.

God helps those who work hard, he finally made a breakthrough in martial arts. Not only did he have a deeper understanding of various moves, he even successfully broke through a small realm, soaring from the late sixth level to the peak of the sixth level.

This breakthrough made Fang Qianfeng full of confidence, as if victory was already in his grasp.

In his eyes, Liang Jin was just an unknown person in the early stage of the sixth rank and was not to be feared at all.

He stubbornly believed that the reason for his defeat last time was entirely because he did not take the "Imperial Guards Long Fist" seriously at the time, and because of his negligence, Liang Jin took advantage of the opportunity.

And now, Fang Qianfeng has not only practiced the "Imperial Guards Long Fist" to perfection, but also learned a mysterious martial art by chance.

This profound martial art was like a trump card in his hand, which made him firmly believe that he would win against Liang Jin this time, and he would definitely defeat Liang Jin and avenge his previous defeat.

Furthermore, as time went by, the affairs of Huaiyang King Zhao Yu were gradually forgotten by everyone, and Liang Jin's value in the eyes of everyone also declined rapidly.

Fang Qianfeng was keenly aware of this and knew that now was the perfect time to take revenge.

really.

Even though Fang Qianfeng deliberately targeted Liang Jin, no one from the imperial guards' high command said a word to stop him.

This shows that Liang Jin is really about to lose his value.

So, taking advantage of the excitement of the imperial guards' training and competition today, he finally couldn't suppress the fire of revenge in his heart and decided to take this opportunity to teach Liang Jin a lesson.

"Liang Jin! Are you scared?"

"Coward! If you're still a man, come on and give me a fight!" "Weren't you so arrogant before? Today I want to see if you can still be as arrogant as before!"

Fang Qianfeng continued to shout relentlessly, his provocative gaze shooting towards Liang Jin like a sharp arrow.

He wanted to use this method to provoke Liang Jin and force him to take the stage.

Fang Qianfeng's actions made many people present who knew the inside story feel indignant.

Especially the group of imperial guards headed by Wu Huan. They knew the grudge between Fang Qianfeng and Liang Jin very well, and naturally they were biased towards Liang Jin.

Wu Huan frowned and complained in a low voice with disdain:

"Humph, a bank president actually challenges a small pawn. How shameless of him!"

When Wang Quan, Qian San and others heard this, although they did not dare to express their dissatisfaction loudly, they all felt the same way and nodded slightly to show that they agreed with Wu Huan's opinion.

Liang Jin, who was in the crowd, was already upset by the information revealed by today's [Daily Intelligence] feature. The important information was like a heavy rock pressing on his heart.

At this moment, Fang Qianfeng's provocation undoubtedly poured fuel on his already irritable heart.

"wanna die?"

"I will fulfill you!"

Liang Jin suppressed the anger in his heart, pushed through the crowd, and walked towards the martial arts field with steady and powerful steps.

In a blink of an eye, Liang Jin had arrived at the martial arts field and stood steadily in front of Fang Qianfeng.

When their eyes met, a strong smell of gunpowder instantly filled the air.

Seeing that Liang Jin was indeed provoked by his provocation, Fang Qianfeng couldn't help but flash a hint of pride in his eyes, like a cunning fox seeing its prey fallen into a trap.

He seized the opportunity and said loudly without hesitation:
"Liang Jin, let's be frank. During training and competition, we will not complain about casualties!"

"Since you dare to accept this competition, you must be prepared to be beaten to death!"

Having said that, Fang Qianfeng's eyes flashed with ferocity, surging with undisguised murderous intent.

He was secretly calculating in his mind that as long as he could successfully destroy Liang Jin's Dantian Qi Sea today and make him a cripple, then in the days to come, he could torture Liang Jin however he wanted.

Continue to torture him until the matter of Huaiyang King Zhao Yu is completely settled and Liang Jin has completely lost his usefulness, and then make him disappear from this world.

Liang Jin looked at Fang Qianfeng coldly and asked:
"Are you done?"

Fang Qianfeng was furious when he heard this and shouted angrily:
"presumptuous!"

"How dare you, a mere soldier, speak to your superiors like that? You're totally disrespectful!"

In front of thousands of imperial guards, Fang Qianfeng could not lose face at all.

Not only did he have to completely defeat Liang Jin with force and regain his dignity, he also had to not lose to Liang Jin in words.

"Whose soldiers did you bring out?"

"Who is your superior? Stand up!"

"I want to see which worthless superior brought out someone as disrespectful as you!"

Fang Qianfeng's face flushed and he roared angrily.

In fact, Fang Qianfeng knew very well that Liang Jin was Wu Huan's subordinate.

Although Wu Huan deliberately lowered his voice in complaining just now, it still didn't escape his ears.

At this moment, he already had a plan in mind. He planned to deal with Liang Jin while giving Wu Huan a warning.

Take these two people as examples to establish your own authority.

Liang Jin snorted coldly:
"So much nonsense!"

"If you want to take action, stop talking!"

Before he finished speaking, Liang Jin's body was as fast as lightning, and he suddenly jumped forward and appeared in front of Fang Qianfeng in an instant.

Fang Qianfeng only felt a black shadow flash before his eyes. Before he could react, he was shocked to see Liang Jin's fist raised high, with a fierce momentum, bombarding towards him like a cannonball.

"Fang Qianfeng, I've been annoyed with you for a long time. Let's settle our feud today!"

Liang Jin's voice was still echoing in the air, but his fist had already brought down with tremendous force.

He has been suppressing his strength at the sixth level through the "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss" technique, and everyone in the Imperial Guard only knows that he is a sixth-level warrior.

However, even if he only used the strength of the sixth rank, it was more than enough to teach Fang Qianfeng, a guy at the peak of the sixth rank, a lesson.

As Fang Qianfeng's eyes widened with fear, Liang Jin's fist hit him hard in the face with lightning speed.

"Bang!!!"

A dull and loud sound rang out, like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart.

Fang Qianfeng was like being hit by a cannonball. He was blown away in an instant, his body drawing a parabola in the air and falling heavily to the ground.

Liang Jin had already reached the peak of the fourth level. After a long period of training and tempering, his understanding of martial arts had reached a new level that was difficult for ordinary people to reach.

When he looks back at the sixth level from his current higher realm, it is like standing on the top of a mountain overlooking the foot of the mountain. Naturally, he can bring the power of the sixth level to its fullest and tap into the infinite possibilities hidden therein.

In this extreme state, the strength of a sixth-grade warrior can even be compared to that of a fifth-grade warrior. The War Puppet Huang Xingzi is a perfect example.

It is particularly worth mentioning that Liang Jin not only condensed a powerful boxing spirit, but also through repeated perception and practice, he successfully upgraded the original Xuan-level boxing technique "The Great Demon Subduing Fist" to the Earth-level boxing technique "The Great Demon Subduing Fist".

This alone is enough to prove that Liang Jin's attainments in boxing have already reached a first-class level.

At this moment, with a profound understanding of martial arts, Liang Jin fought against Fang Qianfeng, who was at the peak of the sixth rank, with the strength of the sixth rank. It was as easy as an eagle catching chickens, and he was completely crushed.

Fang Qianfeng fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Half of his face swelled up instantly, like a balloon inflated by air, and his entire face was severely deformed by the punch.

He struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes full of disbelief, staring at Liang Jin and stammering:
"You...your Imperial Guards Long Fist, how come it's still so powerful?"

"This...how is this possible?"

Ever since he was defeated by Liang Jin last time, Fang Qianfeng has learned his lesson and worked hard to practice the "Imperial Guards Long Fist".

He studied and practiced day and night, and thought he had mastered this basic boxing technique to perfection, knowing every move and every form like the back of his hand.

But he never expected that when he faced Liang Jin's "Imperial Guards Long Fist" again, he was shocked to find that this yellow-level martial art, which he originally thought was mediocre, was like a reborn in Liang Jin's hands, and even as powerful as the Xuan-level martial arts.

Liang Jin did not give Fang Qianfeng any chance to breathe. He raised his fist and walked towards Fang Qianfeng with steady steps, step by step. Every step seemed to be stepping on Fang Qianfeng's heart.

"I told you last time that your Imperial Guards Long Fist skills are a complete mess!"

"With your level, are you qualified to be the president of the Imperial Guards?"

Liang Jin's voice was full of sarcasm and disdain.

Fang Qianfeng was naturally very unwilling to be evaluated like this by Liang Jin.

His face flushed red, and he shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Liang Jin! Don't be so arrogant!"

"I still have some secret tricks up my sleeve! Don't get too proud!"

While shouting, Fang Qianfeng hurriedly circulated the internal energy in his body, preparing to use his newly learned Xuan-level martial arts in an attempt to turn the game around.

However, Liang Jin didn't have the patience to deal with him slowly.

His figure flashed again and he reappeared in front of Fang Qianfeng in an instant.

Fang Qianfeng only felt a flash before his eyes, and before he could react, Liang Jin's fist, which contained great power, had already hit him again.

"Bang!!!"

There was another loud bang, and Fang Qianfeng was knocked out again by this punch.

This time, his body was like a kite with a broken string. It floated weakly in the air for a few times before falling heavily to the ground with a dull sound.

Fang Qianfeng felt stars in front of his eyes and his head was buzzing. He was almost knocked unconscious by the punch. He lay limply on the ground and struggled for a few times, but couldn't get up at all.

Liang Jin raised his fist and slowly walked to Fang Qianfeng's side, saying with disdain on his face:
"I told you last time that you, as the head of the Imperial Guard, can't even master the most basic martial arts of the Imperial Guard. You can't even beat a small soldier."

"A leader like you is a disgrace to the Imperial Guards and a disgrace to the entire Imperial Guards."

Upon hearing this, Fang Qianfeng was so angry that his whole body trembled and he almost vomited blood.

He felt aggrieved and unwilling. He had practiced martial arts so hard and his martial arts skills had improved, but why couldn't he beat Liang Jin?

Moreover, he vaguely felt that Liang Jin seemed to have become stronger than the last time they fought!

This made him feel as if he was trapped in an extremely absurd dream, and he couldn't understand why he encountered such an outrageous thing.

But before he could recover from the endless grievance and confusion, Liang Jin's next punch came at him like a storm.

"Bang!!!"

Fang Qianfeng's head was smashed into the ground by Liang Jin's punch, splashing up a cloud of dust.

All the imperial guards couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

Of course, they could see that Liang Jin's punch was powerful and heavy, and Fang Qianfeng would definitely feel uncomfortable if he was hit by it.

However, Liang Jin's attack did not stop there, and another punch fell.

"Bang!!!"

As the punch landed, blood splattered and one of Fang Qianfeng's eyeballs was knocked out and fell to the ground beside him. The scene suddenly became bloody and cruel.

Fang Qianfeng actually dared to offend Liang Jin when he was at his most irritable, so he must pay a heavy price for his actions!
hiss! ! !
Everyone took a deep breath.

All the officers' expressions changed.

They have seen that the situation is out of control!
