C152 Conversation

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat. So Dongfang Jianxiong was already in the casino. Didn't that mean they had all been witnessed just now?

"Th-this is also a gamble …" Liang Xiong's back was already completely drenched in sweat. At this moment, he could only find this reason to try and stall.

"You bet? Then why did you lose just now?" Dongfang Jianxiong asked again.

"This... This must be the doing of Yun Feixue, if it was just a normal gambling game, I would definitely be able to win. " Liang Xiong couldn't help but roar in a low voice.

"Which eye of yours saw me messing around? From start to finish, other than sitting in the manor, I didn't even touch the dice clock. On the other hand, I've been losing money since I sat in the manor." Yun Feixue said.

"You …" Liang Xiong's heart was so aggrieved that it felt like it was about to explode. However, with Dongfang Jianxiong here, no matter how aggrieved he was, he could only endure it.

"Liang Sen, I heard that you secretly removed Lu Ziguang and Qiao Hong from your official positions without my permission?" Dongfang Jianxiong moved on to Liang Sen and asked.

"This... "The two of them have neglected their duties, and Qiao Hong is adept at changing the system of national examinations. This is a grave crime, your majesty." At this point, Liang Sen could only continue to argue. After all, these were facts that he could not invent.

"According to what I said, Lu Ziguang didn't attend the morning assembly because he was sick and didn't have the time to inform me. He also explained the situation, Qiao Hong changed the National Examination system because those few things were indeed unreasonable, and I had the intention to abolish them as well. Do we need to dismiss the officials to punish these matters?" Dongfang Jianxiong asked.

"Your Majesty, your subject …"

"That's enough, all of you don't need to go to the morning court for now. How can we punish you? Go back." Dongfang Jianxiong did not punish them even more severely, but this was undoubtedly the most appropriate way to deal with them. After all, they were not in the casino, and Dongfang Jianxiong would definitely investigate all of their deeds and mete out the final punishment.

Liang Sen and the others left the Full Moon Tower with ten thousand angry looks.

"Go back and inform Lü Ziguang, Qiao Hong, and the others. If they find out that Liang Sen and the others have done anything that would affect the interests of the Empire, let them be prepared to take over." Dongfang Jianxiong said.

"Thank you, your majesty!" Lu Zifeng and Qiao Fei simply could not believe their ears, but everything that had happened was so real that perhaps they really should thank Yun Feixue. However, Dongfang Jianxiong seemed to have something to discuss with Yun Feixue, so he took the two of them away in advance.

"Snowy, come sit." With no outsiders present, Dongfang Jianxiong truly seemed to regard Yun Feixue as one of his closest friends. Yun Feixue did not show any courtesy and sat opposite Dongfang Jianxiong.

"You should have been investigating them all this while." Dongfang Jianxiong asked.

"Yes, this list was created by me. The people on this list were all single-handedly promoted by them, and this is the main source of their wealth. For example, this Zhang Rui bought the position of a seventh-grade county with eighty million gold coins, but you should also know that this county only needs two to three years to earn these eighty million gold coins." Yun Feixue said as he handed the list over.

Flames flickered faintly on Dongfang Jianxiong's brows. Trading officials was a criminal offence prohibited by the empire from beheading.

He had thought that such a thing wouldn't happen in the Empire, but Yun Feixue's investigation forced him to suspect and examine for himself the subjects that he had once believed to be loyal and loyal to the Empire.

"I believe that Eunuch Lin has told you about some things, so I won't repeat them too much. The Empire is really unstable now, but no matter what, you must not have any problems. My words are not an alarmist, the Empire must not be without rulers for a single day. Only if you are safe and sound can the Hidden Dragon Empire be as stable as a pine." Yun Feixue said with a serious expression.

Dongfang Jianxiong carefully put away the name list before looking at Yun Feixue with a complicated gaze.

"I saw some of your grandfather's shadows on you. When your grandfather went to war, I was just a little prince, but he had a huge influence on me. It's a pity that you don't want to inherit their mantle." Dongfang Jianxiong said regretfully.

"That's not important, what's the use of thinking about evil in court? Although I'm just a commoner, there are some things that I can understand more than you can tell me, and that's enough. At least I want my father and grandfather to be at ease in the underworld for me." Yun Feixue said.

What he said was indeed the truth. Although Yun Feixue did not have an official title, he had done so many things that were better than those who held positions. Perhaps giving him a high position would restrict his development.

"However, I hope that you do not act hastily with Liang Sen and the others. Sending people to spy on them may bring you even more unexpected information." Yun Feixue suddenly said.

"Unexpectedly, you seem to already know what this information is!" Dongfang Jianxiong said.

"I know, but you wouldn't believe me if I told you. You'll only understand if you investigate it yourself." Yun Feixue replied.

Dongfang Jianxiong looked at Yun Feixue with some surprise, but he didn't say anything more. In reality, the information Yun Feixue was giving was naturally about the Golden Dragon Guards' identities.

Killing them would only be a matter of time, far less than letting them lead to more people. Perhaps under Dongfang Jianxiong's watch, he would be able to personally know about some of the Golden Dragon Guards' tricks. This was much more convincing than Yun Feixue directly saying that the Golden Dragon Guards had problems like this.

Dongfang Jianxiong did not say anything else. He merely nodded and changed the topic. "How is the descendant of the eastern barbarians now?"

"The Residence of Yun is not bad. If you need some Life Recovery Pills, I can get someone to bring some for you." Yun Feixue said.

The eastern barbarians are naturally intelligent and I hope that you will be able to use her. It's a pity that we've personally visited the eastern barbarians and only managed to reach a simple agreement with them. I never thought that such a thing would happen in the end. Dongfang Jianxiong sighed and said.

When Dongfang Jianxiong mentioned the dragon vein, he originally wanted to ask what exactly was going on with the dragon vein in the Flame Dragon Armor of the Sacred Hall and who exactly was Fang Wancai, but in the end, he did not ask anything. Furthermore, he did not say that Xiuqing was creating a Star Connecting Crossbow; perhaps he just wanted to give Dongfang Jianxiong a surprise.

"About that … Young Master Yun, this servant …" He wanted a few Life Recovery Pills … "I don't know …" Lin Jia stammered.

"You need some Life Recovery Pills, please say so. Come with me to the Residence of Yun and I'll bring them to you." Yun Feixue agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you, Young Master Yun." Lin Yue said in surprise.

As the strongest person in Dongfang Jianxiong, he had to agree to this matter. Let alone a few, even if it were several hundred Cloud Soaring Snow, he would not hesitate to do so.

At least, from the last time he saw him, it seemed that he had recovered quite a bit. He was no longer as dispirited as before, and this was clearly because Lin Qinghong had warned him to be wary of that newly promoted Empress after returning.

"I just heard you say that there seems to be something amiss with the enemy country. Is this true?" Yun Feixue asked.

"Yes, the Profound Blue Empire in the west has been preparing to make their move. Although they did not make a move directly, I feel that this is not a good omen. We have already ordered Ling AoTian to prepare himself." Dongfang Jianxiong said.

Yun Feixue nodded. It was only a matter of time before the enemies in the surroundings would make their move. To them, the Hidden Dragon Empire was like a piece of cake, it was a place filled with countless resources, and even the ice cities had to stand here. It was obvious what kind of natural geography the Hidden Dragon Empire possessed.

After conversing with Dongfang Jianxiong for a while, Yun Feixue returned to the Residence of Yun and settled the matter with Lu Zifeng and Qiao Fei. The stone in his heart finally dropped to the ground.

Furthermore, the result of this banquet was within Yun Feixue's expectations. Furthermore, there would be many good scenes to come. At the very least, Liang Xiong and the others had suffered enormous losses and there was no way they wouldn't want to retrieve it.

Inside the Liang manor, Liang Sen and his son's faces were dark. There were other important figures of the Liang manor around them. They were destined to not be able to sleep tonight.

Liang Xiong knelt in the middle of the crowd, not daring to make a sound. No one else spoke. The entire scene was extremely depressing.

Not long after, a middle-aged man slowly walked in from the door. Upon seeing this person, Liang Sen's expression softened slightly. He asked, "Have you found anything?"

"Milord, according to the information provided, the owner of the Full Moon Tower right now is the owner of the Residence of Yun, Young Master Yun." The man said.

"Wh …" "What?" Upon hearing these words, Liang Xiong's body, which was lying on the ground, trembled. He subconsciously turned his head to look at this person, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard.

"That shouldn't be possible. The Full Moon Restaurant has dozens of years of history. How could they have become Yun Feixue's?" Liang Sen also seemed unable to believe this truth.

"The owner of the Full Moon Tower was not him. However, two days ago, Yun Feixue bought it directly." The man continued.

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Yun Feixue had bought the Full Moon Restaurant, so how could he have this kind of wealth?

Seemingly sensing everyone's shock and confusion, the man continued: "Before, Yun Feixue had taken over nine shops in Xia Jing Shan through a relationship, and in the past few days, he had already sold four digits in quantity of Life Continuing Pills, almost half of which were bought with gold coins rather than starlight stones. He had switched hands over all the shops and even the shops that originally belonged to the Yun Mansion, in addition to this huge fortune, taking over the Full Moon Restaurant is no longer difficult."

"Why did he pay such a huge price to take over the Full Moon Tower?" Liang Sen could not help but ask.

"I don't know about that, but I guess it's in order to manage his finances more centrally. Moreover, the profit of the Full Moon Restaurant is countless times more than all of his stores put together. This should be one of the reasons." The person said.

At this moment, if he still did not know that this was a trap Yun Feixue had set for them, then he would be a fool, but knowing it now would not help at all. What they were going to do next was to face the wrath of Dongfang Jianxiong.

"Tomorrow, go to the Residence of Yun and apologize to Yun Feixue yourself. Furthermore, you will be bringing gifts." After pondering for a moment, Liang Sen suddenly said to Liang Xiong, who was kneeling on the ground.

"What? Father, why …"

Although the Emperor temporarily doesn't pursue the matter, you really think that he will let us go. For this matter, aside from us going to plead with the Emperor in front of him, you have to say something about it. If he could put down his grudge, and even say a few words for you in front of the Emperor, then at the very least he wouldn't drag you down with him if he were to find out anything. Liang Sen could not help but scold in anger.

"But he can't speak for us. You're wasting your breath." Liang Xiong couldn't help but say.

"Talk about conditions, talk about conditions with him. Do you understand? There's no one that can't be beaten with benefits. If you can't beat him up, it's because the benefits aren't enough." Liang Sen said.

"Alright!" When he thought of how he had to lower himself in front of Yun Feixue, he felt an unexplainable rage, but there really was no other way about it. At the very least, it was much better than going against Yun Feixue. Wasn't Xiao Wuye going against Yun Feixue?

Thinking up to this point, Liang Xiong suddenly felt depressed, why did he want to attack Qiao Fei and Lu Zifeng so impulsively?

At the same time, this kind of play was being acted out in every corner of Hidden Dragon City. Everyone came to the common conclusion that they could not continue to oppose Yun Feixue.

The only answer was that he trusted the Residence of Yun or Yun Feixue, so Yun Feixue's one sentence was enough to drag Dongfang Jianxiong out of the palace. For someone like him, you could only blame your own bad luck; continuing to be his enemy would only make things worse.

The next day, after Yun Feixue and Xiuqing met, he continued to immerse himself in cultivation. To him, right now, there was nothing more important than cultivating. He had to quickly raise his strength to another level.

"Young Master Liang, Young Master Li, and the rest have come to the Residence of Yun to pay their respects to young master!" Uncle Fu said softly outside the door.

"Just let them wait." Yun Feixue's voice came from inside the house.

"Ugh …" Yes, young master! " Uncle Fu obviously did not understand what had happened, but he would never go against Yun Feixue's intentions, so he directly passed on Yun Feixue's words to Liang Xiong and the others.

However, Liang Xiong and the others didn't have the slightest dissatisfaction. They all obediently nodded their heads, indicating that they were willing to wait in the main hall.

Uncle Fu couldn't help but be confused. Which one of them wasn't famous in Hidden Dragon City? Why did they suddenly become so easy to talk to?

They just sat there in the main hall. After a whole six hours, Yun Feixue finally walked in through the main door.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Yun Feixue said as he looked at Liang Xiong's group with a smile.
