Suddenly, a maid from Zilan Pavilion came to report some news.

After the Zilan Pavilion was burned down, all the people inside were moved by Zi Nu. Now, some of them live outside the city, while others are hidden in various parts of the city, collecting information for Zi Nu.

The women in Zilan Pavilion may appear weak, but they are not. They are all spies, skilled in various infiltration and intelligence gathering techniques.

"It's terrible! Ji Wuye has already dispatched a large army to seal off the entire city."

Han Fei and the others looked grim upon hearing this.

This is the second time Ji Wuye has sent a large army to seal off the entire city.

The first time was when Ji Wuye's Nightfall was to assist the Qin Kingdom's Luowang in carrying out the mission of assassinating Young Master Shang. Therefore, under the pretext of sealing off the entire city and searching for Tianze's whereabouts, he put the whole city under martial law.

But on that occasion, it was Luo Wang who actually carried out the mission.

Although Ji Wuye also made some moves, they were not many.

But this time it's different.

Having lost his son, Ji Wuye will undoubtedly stop at nothing to find the murderer.

"With Ji Wuyexing's methods, it won't be long before the entire court knows about Ji Yihu's death. I can't stay here any longer; I must leave first. I'm afraid Father will be holding a court meeting soon."

"If the person who is summoned cannot find me, I'm afraid it will cause you trouble."

Han Fei realized his current predicament. He could not stay here any longer. Ji Yihu was dead, and he died in the Valley of Broken Souls. The Valley of Broken Souls was the place where Ji Wuye had carried out the ghost soldiers' robbery of supplies. As expected, Ji Wuye had already concluded that this matter was related to him.

If he continues to come and go here, he might be targeted by Ji Wuye's people, who would then find this place and cause trouble for Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu.

Han Fei must leave this place.

Before leaving, he repeatedly urged Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu to take good care of their own safety.

He will find a way to resolve this.

He said he wanted to solve the problem, but how to solve this trouble? Han Fei still had no clue. Just like when Honglian married Ji Yihu earlier, he couldn't find a way out. The current situation was even more troublesome than that time. How could he break the deadlock?

After Han Fei left, Zhang Liang also left.

For a moment, only Zi Nu and the wounded Wei Zhuang remained in the manor.

"Damn it!"

Wei Zhuang clenched his fists, furious at his own incompetence.

If I had been stronger when I realized that the man was trying to assassinate Ji Yihu, and had stopped it from happening, then so much trouble wouldn't have occurred.

……

Ji Wuye's act of sending a large army to seal off the entire city quickly attracted the attention of all the civil and military officials in the court.

When the news reached the King of Han.

The King of Han couldn't help but feel a sense of surprise and doubt, which was accompanied by a bit of fear. He didn't understand why Ji Wuye would do this, since he had already betrothed Princess Honglian to his son.

Isn't he satisfied yet?

What exactly does Ji Wuye want to do?

Out of curiosity, the King of Han sent out a eunuch to summon the king, and a temporary court assembly was thus convened.

All the civil and military officials arrived at the court one after another.

Ji Wuye was the last to arrive.

He was wearing armor and carrying the long sword "Eight Feet". Normally, court officials are not allowed to carry weapons when attending court, but Ji Wuye did, and in such a swaggering manner.

Upon seeing Ji Wuye's arrival, Prime Minister Zhang Kai immediately rebuked him, "Ji Wuye, you have sent a large army to seal off the entire city for no reason, and now you are even bringing weapons to court. What exactly do you want to do?"

"Are you planning a rebellion?"

Zhang Kai thought he had found a reason to impeach Ji Wuye. If he could convince the king, he might be able to use this to suppress Ji Wuye.

"Rebellion?" Upon hearing this, Ji Wuye's icy face revealed a cold smile. "I have never rebelled, but some people are trying to force me to."

Chapter 153 The Entire Court Was in Fear

Upon hearing this, many people's expressions changed slightly.

Even the King of Han, seated on his throne, felt a chill.

When Ji Wuye uttered these words, a vast killing intent surged from his body. This killing intent was accumulated during his battles.

Sensing this murderous aura, not only the King of Han on his throne, but also the other civil and military officials, all had their expressions suddenly change and become solemn.

Especially Han Fei, although he did not possess martial arts skills.

But at this moment, he truly felt how terrifying Ji Wuye was.

No wonder he could command the loyalty of the Blood-Clad Marquis.

Ji Wuye should not be viewed simply as a greedy and lustful powerful minister.

"Why do you say that, General? You are the pillar of the nation, the strongest wall of our country. It is because of you that our country has been able to resist the invasion of other countries."

Seeing Ji Wuye unleashing his killing intent without restraint, Han Yu, who had previously reached an agreement with Ji Wuye, spoke up.

Although Ji Wuye released a murderous aura, it also aroused a trace of fear in him.

However, he believed that he had not offended Ji Wuye, and had even persuaded his father to marry Princess Honglian to Ji Wuye's son, Ji Yihu. He felt that he still had a voice in front of Ji Wuye.

"Yes, General, what makes you say that? Has the General suffered some injustice? If so, please speak up, and I will stand up for you." King Han, sitting on his throne, reacted after hearing Han Yu's words and quickly asked Ji Wuye.

After Han Yu and the King of Han spoke, Ji Wuye slightly restrained the murderous aura emanating from his body and said to the King of Han, "Your Majesty, I have indeed been wronged."

"And there is a reason why the entire city was locked down this time."

"I wonder what grievance the General has suffered? And what is the reason?" King Han continued to ask.

I don't know why, but even though King Han is the real king, Ji Wuye, even though he is a great general, is just a subject.

However, after Ji Wuye released a strong killing intent, King Han felt fear, worried that Ji Wuye might actually rebel. He thought that as long as Ji Wuye didn't rebel, even some unreasonable demands could be considered.

That's what the King of Han thought.

“My son, my only son, was killed on his way back to the capital.”

"And his killer is in the city."

"Your Majesty, tell me, should I avenge him?"

After Ji Wuye spoke, the expressions of many civil and military officials changed once again.

This news is truly shocking.

Han Yu, who had spoken first to ease the atmosphere, also had a serious look in his eyes.

He never expected that Ji Yihu would actually die.

No wonder Ji Wuye was so angry, no wonder he did such a thing.

"W-what?" King Han was also startled when he heard this.

He knew Ji Yihu; he was Ji Wuye's only son. Although he was a bit ugly, after careful consideration, he decided to marry Honglian to Ji Yihu so that Ji Wuye would be more loyal to him.

So what did he hear now?

Ji Yihu was killed.

King Han regained his senses and said to Ji Wuye, "As a father, of course I must avenge my son's death. Although the General did not inform me beforehand about the city's lockdown, it is understandable. I will not pursue the matter further. At the same time, I authorize the General to act first and report later. As long as the General has solid evidence to identify the murderer, he may deal with him as he sees fit."

Ji Wuye's expression remained cold. Upon hearing the King of Han's words, he immediately cupped his hands to the King of Han and said, "Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty!"

The King of Han waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I can understand the pain of losing a son."

"If the general hadn't killed Tianze, the injustice suffered by the crown prince would not have been cleared."

The King of Han's meaning was very clear: you have avenged my son.

In return, I will naturally avenge your son.

Therefore, I'm giving you the authority to act first and report later.

After Ji Wuye finished speaking with the King of Han, he raised his head again and looked at Han Fei and Zhang Kaidi.

Han Fei, stared at by Ji Wuye, remained expressionless, a bitter feeling welling up inside him.

As expected, Ji Wuye concluded that he was the one who murdered Ji Yihu.

But the fact is, he didn't do that.

Han Fei, being as fearless as a shadow in Shenzhen, wasn't nervous at all. Instead, he was quite open-minded. He had previously criticized Ji Wuye, and now that he knew the reason behind Ji Wuye's actions, and was being stared at by Ji Wuye like this, he immediately became a little nervous.

"Ji Wuye, what... what do you want to do?"

Zhang Kaidi remembered that King Han had given Ji Wuye the power to act first and report later.

Could Ji Wuye be planning to take this opportunity to eliminate his political rival?

It can only be said that for someone like Zhang Kaidi who enjoys power struggles, he always likes to think about power struggles, no matter what.

"What do I want to do?" Ji Wuye sneered. "Zhang Kaidi, it was you who sent people to kill my son, wasn't it?"
