Chapter 36 I hope Your Highness takes care of yourself!
Yes, yes, it was this kind of feeling of being admired. The Dark Emperor raised his chin slightly and half closed his eyes, enjoying it. But Meng Po suddenly said:

"Emperor Ming, this is the list of undercover agents that your majesty has given me. Including the Water and Fire Judges Yang Yan and Yang Miao, a total of 18 people are your majesty's eyes and ears. Except for Yang Yan and Yang Miao, the other 16 people have been transferred out by me. Only these two people I dare not act rashly."

While Meng Po was speaking, she also presented a list to the Hades. The Hades took the list, glanced at it, and frowned slightly, saying, "They are all the old man's people. Humph, it seems that this old immortal has been on guard against me for a long time. Damn it."

Not to mention that the backbones of the Xuanming Sect were Zhu Wen's men, he didn't expect that the twin brothers Yang Yan and Yang Miao, the Water and Fire Judges, were also undercover agents sent by Zhu Wen. The two of them were both in the late Zhongtian stage, and together they could fight against ordinary Datian masters. This was already a high-level combat force within the Xuanming Sect. "Humph, if it weren't for me instigating Meng Po to rebel, then I would have no one around me now, good, good, good!"

The Hades sneered and a ball of black flame suddenly condensed in his hand. The flame burned the list and burned it. The Hades' shrill voice sounded again, "But now is not the time to kill them, so as not to alert the enemy. I will endure it for a while."

Meng Po bowed and said, "I understand."

"When you're done, let Zhang and Zhu Youwen come to see me!" The Hades' voice was cold and chilly. Only he knew how painful it was to be distrusted or even hated and excluded by his own father.

"Yes." Meng Po bowed her head, no expression visible on her wrinkled face, but the indifference in her eyes was surprisingly similar to that of the Hades.

Jiuyou Palace.

Zhu Youwen, the second prince of Daliang State and Zhu Wen's most favored and beloved son, appeared tremblingly in front of the Hades Emperor, "I greet the Hades Emperor." Zhu Youwen saluted the Hades Emperor tremblingly, not even daring to look at him. From the moment he entered the palace, Zhu Youwen had been looking down at the stone slab on the ground.

"Hmph, even if you look 90% like him, fake is fake and can never be real." The Hades looked at Zhu Youwen with his hands behind his back, his expression gradually becoming ferocious, "It's you, with your handsome appearance! It's you, who is loved by him the most! Or it's you, with your unparalleled talent in practicing martial arts! Why! Tell me why! Hmph! Bastard, if you hadn't hidden Jiuyou, I wouldn't have become the half-human, half-ghost I am now!"

The Dark Emperor gathered a ball of black inner strength in his hand, and instantly transformed it into a streak of light. He grabbed the neck of Zhu Youwen in front of him and lifted him into the air. "Ahem... Dark Emperor, please spare me, Dark Emperor, please spare me, I am not Zhu Youwen, I am a fake!"

Fake… The blood in the eyes faded slightly, and the Dark Emperor threw the fake Zhu Youwen in his hand away, and shouted coldly: "Start contacting those ministers who secretly support you, and let them support me to become emperor without reservation. If you do this well, you still have a chance to survive!"

"Yes, yes, thank you very much, Hades, for not killing me." The fake Zhu Youwen immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed frantically. The Hades was moody and every time he summoned him, it was like eating gunpowder. He was really afraid that he would die at the hands of the Hades if he was not careful.

"Get out!" The Hades waved his hand, and Fake Zhu suddenly felt relieved and trotted out.

The Dark Emperor took a deep breath and looked at his palm with a gloomy expression, "General... Why is it that the Ghost King has only practiced half of the Nine Nether Mysterious Heaven Art, but he is fine? Is it that my hatred is not enough? I even gave away my own woman, what else do you want?"

"It's nothing, but if you continue like this, you won't be able to save your life." A delicate voice appeared in the hall. Zhang, who was wearing a thin gauze with a slender waist, walked in barefoot. Zhang looked at the Hades and said unhappily: "The old man has ordered to get rid of you and is preparing to make you the crown prince. You can do whatever you want."

After seeing the woman in front of him, the Hades' face calmed down surprisingly. He threw a small porcelain bottle towards Zhang and said calmly, "This medicine is colorless and tasteless. Put it in his wine. When his power and meridians are completely destroyed, you will no longer be Zhang, but Empress Zhang of Daliang!"

"Really? You're finally going to do it. Oh, you don't know how much I've been wronged by that old man." Zhang came forward with a bottle of medicine in her hand, looking coquettish, wanting to get intimate with the Hades, but seeing that weird baby face, she had no appetite at all. She was even worse than the old man in her family. Although the old man was perverted, at least he was still very strong. "Back off, I want to practice." The Hades seemed to be accustomed to this situation, and coldly asked Zhang to back off.

"Okay, I'll take my leave then."

The Emperor of Hell stared at Zhang's graceful back, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. When the day comes, this woman who has betrayed him will also die!

……

Qi country, Huanyinfang.

"Your Highness, Ji Ruxue has sent me a letter."

"Present it." The empress, dressed in military uniform, took the secret letter with a little sun and Li Xingyun's mini portrait on it while handling Qi's official business. The empress casually glanced at the secret letter and then put down the brush in her hand, "Hmm?" Sitting up straight, the empress frowned slightly as she looked at the secret letter in front of her, "Is Yun Ji doing well these days? This handwriting? Is this Li Xingyun's handwriting?"

"How could this be?" The empress half opened her red lips, with obvious doubt on her pretty face, "Does he have other intentions?" The empress was puzzled. From what she saw that day, Li Xingyun pressed Li Siyuan to his knees with one palm. Whether it was courage or aura, he was worthy of the Li Tang bloodline. Why... why was it like this today?

"Could it be..." The empress glanced out the window, then slowly shook her head, thinking: "No, he is now carrying a blood feud and the heavy responsibility of restoring the country. How could he fall into the trap of love?"

Fan Yintian, who was half-kneeling on the ground, saw that the Empress looked a little strange, and asked curiously: "Empress, what happened to Li Xingyun?"

The empress waved her hands irritably and said, "All of you go down. I'll be alone for a while."

Although Fanyintian was curious about what was written in the secret letter, he had no choice but to obey the order and said, "Yes, I will take my leave."

After Fanyintian and the maids left, the empress tightly grasped the secret letter in her hand and urged her inner strength to destroy it, but she hesitated when she was about to destroy it. She didn't know why she hesitated. At this moment, she was surprisingly soft-hearted, perhaps because Li Xingyun was the second person in the world besides her brother who addressed her in such a tone. "Hu..." With a light gasp, the empress casually put the secret letter into an official document, and then thought for a long time before writing:
"I have been doing well recently, fortunately for your concern. I am extremely worried. I recently heard that your Highness wants to go north to Luoyang to fight against the traitor Zhu Wen. This is absurd, but the traitor is powerful. Your Highness is a precious person and must not put himself in danger. I have reorganized the Fengxiang army and horses, and the men in Guanzhong are all ready to fight. As long as your Highness gives the order, we can march to Bianzhou!"

The empress, who had already put down her pen, paused and added silently, "It is not easy to defeat the enemy. Although I am not talented, I am willing to share your worries. I hope your Highness will take care of yourself..."

……

(Thanks to Rui King for the reward, thank you brother!)
