Chapter 1104: Adopted Son (Make-up Leave 25)

Chapter 1103: Adopted Son (Make-up Leave 25)

"My mission should be completed."

Also in a mansion, Ying Wuque looked at Yu Gucheng who came uninvited and said with a somewhat cold expression.

He seemed to not care at all about the fact that Jellyfish Yin Ji had stabbed him in the face in public in the conference room before.

Including the subsequent results, there was no curiosity to explore, just like his plain words at this moment, the mission was completed, which also meant it was over.

Yu Gucheng was somewhat accustomed to his seemingly abnormal behavior.

As the one who personally pushed him to join the Wuwei Palace, he was very clear about how cold-hearted this obedient son who recognized him as his father was. Of course, this was also due to his congenital lack of emotions, which was a disease in the eyes of others, but Ying Wuque might even think it was a good thing.

Because this way he can focus on the sword in his hand and not be distracted by anything external.

Then Yu Gucheng nodded and said:

"Your role is just about to end, and you won't be needed for the rest of the story. Jellyfish Yin Ji's betrayal will allow you to become a transparent person again in a reasonable way."

"Okay." Ying Wuque agreed readily.

Then he stared at Yu Gucheng without saying a word. The meaning of his eyes was very clear: now that you have finished talking, shouldn't you leave?

Seeing this, Yu Gucheng picked up a wine glass on the table and started playing with it in his hands.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Ying Wuque asked proactively.

"It's okay, but I'm afraid it won't be very peaceful tonight." Yu Gucheng put the wine glass on the table again while speaking, "Before this matter has a result, I have no intention of continuing to practice sword, so I will sit here with you for a while."

Ying Wuque was silent for a moment and said:

"The so-called result is to wait for the day she comes back?"

"Ah."

"In fact, she wants to return to the palace as quickly as possible, so she can just take the airship."

"Airships will be out of service during the war." Yu Gucheng looked up at the other person.

"They are all excuses." Ying Wuque's answer was very direct.

"It is indeed an excuse." Yu Gucheng nodded in approval, "But this excuse is indeed very reasonable. It is to prevent Daxuan from using her as a pretext and also taking an airship directly to Wuwei City, thus causing immeasurable damage to the residents in the city.

She chose to walk back, which also eliminated the possibility of risk at the source.”

"It's still an excuse." Ying Wuque had no intention of arguing with Yu Gucheng, and once again gave a decisive and clear conclusion.

Yu Gucheng smiled and didn't say anything else.

But Ying Wuque took the initiative to ask:

"She deliberately gave her time to prepare? Then she could catch her in one fell swoop?"

"There are some factors, but more importantly, in the process of responding to each other's moves, she will become more and more anxious. When people are anxious, they will make mistakes, and big mistakes.

Especially today, your guess directly blocked her preparation plan, and she ended up confessing without any warning."

"She confessed without being asked? But she also managed to find a loophole against her."

"With you here and me here, does that count as a loophole? Any speculation without evidence can be considered slander and defamation, especially when my adopted sister is now the most famous in Wuwei City, so the next wave of public opinion offensive can be imagined.

Besides, her opponent was never her from the beginning to the end."

Ying Wuque was silent for a moment and then nodded.

If Yu Haitang wants to become the true King of Wuwei and take over the Wuwei Palace with intact combat power, the obstacle that stands in his way has never been Yu Huanglian, but Yue Taigong, who actually holds the military power and has a very high prestige in the military.

Just from her performance in this meeting, Ying Wuque has already determined that Yu Huanglian is a fool.

It just so happens that her identity combined with Yue Taigong's prestige is a sure win.

But Yue Taigong did not make any move. In fact, as long as he supported her today and publicly announced Yu Huanglian's identity

No, it's too late to stand up now. The cause of the meeting was that Yu Yuanba was poisoned. The previous suspects were only those adopted sons and daughters, but now if Yu Huanglian's existence is exposed, the other party will directly become the first suspect.

At the same time, Yu Huanglian is also the most likely murderer of Yu Canglan.

Ying Wuque was very clear about the importance of the other four adopted sons and daughters in the Wuwei Palace, except for himself. Even though Yu had ignored all kinds of strict precautions before, these four people still formed a dense network of contacts.

These large nets tightly wrapped around the Wuwei Palace. If one tried to tear them apart layer by layer, it would inevitably tear some flesh and blood.

I think Yu Wushi must have regarded regaining these four adopted sons and daughters as the final test for Yu Huanglian.

If successful, the other party will obtain a Wuwei Palace with top-level strength, but if failed, it would be better for him not to take this position.

Whether considering Yu Huanglian's identity or involving Yu Wushi's significance to the entire Wuwei Palace, Yu Huanglian's worst ending is just that of a rich man.

But after Yu Canglan's death, his good hand was completely ruined.

There is no so-called retreat after that.

"So, what will she do next?"

"Which her?"

"That idiot."

Yu Gucheng thought for a moment and said, "Use any means to bring her down."

"Any means? Including poisoning?" Ying Wuque raised his eyebrows.

"More than that, if necessary, I'm afraid..."

Before Yu Gucheng finished speaking, the voice transmission token in his arms began to vibrate. After receiving it, his expression was a little conflicted.

Ying Wuque didn't know who he was talking to, but judging from his expression, he seemed to have encountered a very difficult problem to solve.

Until he put down the token, his brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death.

Seeing this, Ying Wuque did not ask proactively. His curiosity was not that strong. All he wanted now was to get the reward after the task as soon as possible, and then quickly resolve these troubles in the Wuwei Palace so that he could have a relatively comfortable environment for cultivation.

At this moment, Yu Gucheng took the initiative to speak:

"Bai Zishu and the others went to the front line."

"front?"

"Well, cooperate with the water army to provide assistance." Yu Gucheng sneered when he said this.

In a previous conversation between Yu Gucheng and Ying Wuque, the other party had mentioned that among the eight military forces, the commanders of the Water and Fire Armies were very close to him. This also showed that to a certain extent Yu Gucheng had firmly grasped the power to mobilize the two armies.

However, when the Northern Expedition broke out, Yue Taigong proposed to transfer the Fire Army to the front line, this time it was the Water Army.

This also shows that the two major armies will not be able to be used by them at this critical moment.

Ying Wuque did not say anything about coincidence. In fact, after hearing Yue Taigong's proposal at the meeting today, he had already guessed that the other party might have the worst plan. All of this was in preparation for that day.

"Or was it Yue Taigong's suggestion?"

Ying Wuque looked towards Yu Gucheng, and after seeing the other party nod slightly, he shook his head.

"This should also be Bai Zishu's idea. He doesn't want to get involved in this civil strife. I don't think that with his knowledge in the outside world, he would not have noticed the intrigues for power at this meeting.

But it's a bit strange

He had the closest relationship with my third sister. His seemingly neutral stance at the meeting was actually leaning towards my third sister. After all, if he could prove a guilty verdict, with his status, he would be qualified to directly label my third sister a suspect.

But he just wants to smooth things over.

But at this critical moment, he has to go to the front line, and he is not alone, right? "

"Yes." Yu Gucheng nodded and said, "Except for the two envoys who stayed behind, the other three were also brought to the front line by him."

"so."

"Yue Taigong and Yu Huanglian should have made some promises, or even possible..." Yu Gucheng's expression was a little gloomy.

In fact, he and Bai Zishu had a very pleasant time getting along during this period. Next, he would formally join Donghuang Heavenly Court with the recommendation of the other party. And considering his father's status in Donghuang, the identity of this recommender was not too low.

Then as long as he shows the corresponding qualifications, he will be at a good starting point.

But the other party just ran away. Yu Gucheng didn't say much in the previous meetings, but every time he spoke at the critical juncture, especially the final vote, he didn't think that the versatile Bai Zishu didn't understand what he meant.

But the result was that Bai Zishu retreated so decisively without even saying hello to him in person.

So what kind of transaction conditions could make this knowledgeable angel from outer space choose to remain neutral between himself and Yu Huanglian once again?

All he could think of was the secret of the fateful body.

This matter is a taboo that cannot be mentioned in the entire Mountain and Sea Realm. Anyone with a little bit of common sense knows how much trouble this matter will cause if it is exposed to the outside world. The best outcome is that the native residents of the Mountain and Sea Realm will become wanderers who will never be able to return home.

As for the worst outcome

"What a pity. Why bother?" Yu Gucheng sighed solemnly.

After thinking for a moment, Ying Wuque quickly caught up with the other party's train of thought.

"They... shouldn't be that serious."

"She is a short-sighted fool, especially since she was almost cornered in the previous meeting. I am not surprised at what decision she can make. As for Yue Taigong, he is a loyal fool.

That is why his tolerance towards Yu Huanglian is beyond your and my imagination.

Fortunately, the remaining seven wolf generals, although loyal to their adoptive father, do not necessarily mean loyal to his only daughter.

And given my adoptive father's level of suspicion, even Yue Taigong would have his suspicions."

Ying Wuque blinked. From Yu Gucheng's words, he realized that there seemed to be a big secret within the military.

But Yu Gucheng didn't continue speaking.

He suddenly stood up and walked out, which made Ying Wuque, who was not so curious, feel a little itchy in his heart.

But he still wouldn't take the initiative to ask.

Until Yu Gucheng arrived at the door, he suddenly turned around and said:

"I'll let Simon protect you. Be careful recently and don't trust anyone."

“This anyone means.”

"Except for me, Ximen, and Third Sister, don't trust anyone else, including Gongzi Yu who introduced you earlier."

"Qinglong Pavilion is not"

"There is no credibility for people in the evil ways, otherwise why would Third Sister deliberately throw them out as bait? Because there is a possibility of betrayal in them, and Yu Huanglian and Yue Taigong are also very clear about this.

And Yu Yuanba, don't have any private contact with him these days."

"Yu Yuanba" Ying Wuque frowned slightly.

Originally, he thought it was a bit abnormal for him to return home suddenly, but after revealing that someone had poisoned him, it was reasonable for him to rush back to seek revenge given his reckless personality.

However, at the final vote of the meeting.

Yu Yuanba actually did not vote for Yu Haitang, this feels a little wrong.

Especially because of the voting result of 3 to 0, this poisoning case has a tendency to be reduced to a small matter, and Yu Yuanba, the victim, has no objection. This is extremely wrong!

What does he believe in the third sister?

From the moment he decided to compete for the throne, he pointed at his elder brother Yu Canglan, with whom he had a good relationship before, and angrily scolded him. He also made a lot of small moves in private. No matter how reckless a person is, it does not mean that he does not have his own little tricks.

Not to mention her sister who also poses a certain threat.

"So, Yu Yuanba's side is..."

"I need to check."

After saying this, Yu Gucheng pushed the door open and walked out.

Only Ying Wuque, who felt even more itchy in his heart, was left. He looked at the other person's gradually disappearing back in silence and fell into a daze.

-

It was still the middle of the night, still in a magnificent mansion in Wuwei City.

Hysterical curses rang out from the hall, but as the sounds left the room, they were silenced by a barrier.

"This bitch! Why does she have the right to compete with me? A bastard with no father or mother! Is she worthy?"

"And that Ying Wuque! A jinx whose father died! Why is he so talkative! He should be pushed into a cesspool!"

"And then there's that Yu Gucheng! Can't you just have fun with your broken sword? Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

"Finally, it's that damn Yu Yuanba! How could he still be alive? It was the Holy One Divine Water that could poison a Celestial Realm warrior to death! But as soon as this bastard came back, he messed up all the plans!"

"That bastard Ying Wuque deserves to die! Just shut up! Damn it!"

"What on earth was my father thinking! He adopted these damned bastards as his adopted sons! He should have let them starve to death when they were young! This is my Wuwei Palace! My Yu family! Why are they fighting with me! That position should have been mine! It's mine!"

A loud scream caused a few drops of tea to spill from the cup that Yue Taigong was holding. He looked up calmly at the woman who was screaming and smashing things in the hall.

Her originally pretty and gentle face had become somewhat ugly due to her distorted expression, and viciousness and hatred were constantly seeping out through her facial features, just like a python that was constantly spewing venom.

And Yue Taigong was listening quietly.

He did not express any opinion until the voice transmission token in his arms began to vibrate.

He picked it up and confirmed the message from the other end before he interrupted Yu Huanglian's constant shouting with a loud cough.

The other party's expression changed in an instant, and he looked at Yue Taigong expectantly.

Yue Taigong nodded and said:

"The angels from outer space have been dealt with, they will not interfere. Bai Zishu has already rushed to the front line overnight. At least before the Third Prince returns, you don't have to worry about them standing on the opposite side."

"What Third Prince! He's just a bitch!"

Yu Huanglian's expression became twisted and resentful once again, and the blue veins on her forehead made her look like a man-eating evil ghost.
