Among the four side peaks of the Spring and Autumn Academy, Lingxiao, Shuoming, Qionghua and Rizhao, Shuoming Peak is the most steep and highest. In the past, this place was used by Tang Zi'an to practice, but now it has been occupied by Hu Shuo.

In this regard, Xia Sheng would not think that Hu Shuo was occupying the nest. After all, Hu Shuo is also the vice president of the academy. He went there just to ask Hu Shuo a question in person.

When he was in Sunset Valley that day, Hu Shuo once told Xia Sheng with confidence that he was the vice president of Chunqiu Academy after all, and the interests of the academy should be the most important. Even if Tang Zi dies, he will become the last barrier in front of those sluts who covet Bujushan.

But now, facing the humiliation of the Judgment Department and the Ministry of Justice, why didn’t he show up?

Where is his oath?

How can he have his pride?

From the main peak of Buju Mountain to the top of Shuoming Peak, Xia Sheng only took three breaths.

He didn't even bring God Jiang and Qiongsang, and just came alone with a sword. When he landed on the ground, he didn't even take a step to the ground.

As Academician Zhou said, Hu Shuo was indeed on Shuoming Peak, but what surprised Xia Sheng was that Hu Shuo was not alone.

The one standing next to Hu Shuo at this time was not the prince that Xia Sheng wanted to look for, but an old man with a smile on his face and a hunched over.

Of course, Xia Sheng knew this person, or more accurately, he had seen it twice.

The first time was during the academy recruitment exam, when Xia Sheng saw him standing by the side of Emperor Jin.

The second time, Xia Sheng happened to meet on the road to the Imperial Study when he entered the palace to face the saint in order to repay the demise for thousands of miles.

This is also the important reason why Qin Xiaohua asked Xia Sheng to return to Chunqiu Academy.

Eunuch Zhao.

Xia Sheng had imagined countless times where this Eunuch Zhao would hide, waiting for the news of the ceremony of worshiping the sky, perhaps it was the military hiding pavilion, perhaps it was the wilderness of hope, or even in the back mountain, but he never expected that he would appear on Shuoming Peak and beside Hu Shuo.

Seeing Xia Sheng breaking through the air, Eunuch Zhao was obviously more surprised than Hu Shuo, but this surprise lasted for a short time and then turned into a close smile.

"It turns out that it's Lord Xiao Xia. I'm sorry, so why haven't seen him for a few months, but I always feel that Lord Xiao Xia is much more mature."

Xia Sheng nodded slightly: "I didn't expect that Eunuch Zhao was here."

While speaking, Xia Sheng walked forward slowly, but did not greet Hu Shuo. Because he didn't have to ask anything, he understood why Hu Shuo had never walked down Shuoming Peak since he closed the mountain.

He even further guessed that the suppression of the Chunqiu Academy may also be part of the Jindi's layout.

If he was really buried in the ceremony of worshiping the sky, if it weren't for Qin Xiaohua's keen eyes, who would have thought that Eunuch Zhao was originally in the Chunqiu Academy?

Even if someone really thinks of it, who can hurt Eunuch Zhao under the personal escort of Hu Shuo, a powerful man?

The prince is in the Spring and Autumn Academy.

Eunuch Zhao is also in the Chunqiu Academy.

From this point of view, Emperor Jin has indeed arranged everything after his death.

If it weren't for Qin Xiaohua's existence, I'm afraid that the news of the emperor's death at the ceremony of worshiping heaven would be sent back to Bujushan, and Eunuch Zhao would be able to immediately take out the imperial order and crown the prince under Hu Shuo's witness.

So at the beginning of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Emperor Jin wanted to kill Qin Xiaohua.

Unfortunately, this emperor of the ages was still too confident or too conceited. When he found out that the demon emperor he was most afraid of was just a dawn, he thought he was invincible in the whole world.

Therefore, he did not kill Qin Xiaohua at all costs at the first time.

When he was about to kill Qin Xiaohua, he met Mu Chenyi.

The only Mu Chenyi who was willing to create a sword for Xia Sheng.

Everything is too late.

Xia Sheng had already known in advance that Hu Shuohui was in Shuomingfeng and Eunuch Zhao was in Chunqiu Academy, so his surprise was naturally not as good as the two people on the other side.

Compared to Eunuch Zhao's control and retention of emotions, Hu Shuo couldn't help but say in surprise, "You are still alive!"

Xia Sheng did not respond because after Eunuch Zhao appeared, Hu Shuo's existence was meaningless.

He just slowly pressed his palm on the hilt of Haoran's sword and said to Mr. Zhao publicly: "Since Mr. Zhao is here, then I guess His Majesty's imperial order is also here?"

After the words came, the smile on Eunuch Zhao's face stuttered slightly, and then he said suspiciously: "I don't understand what Lord Xiao Xia is talking about."

Xia Sheng had no time to go around the other party and spoke directly: "Your Majesty has passed away in Changbai Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Zhao and Hu Shuo both changed their eyes. This time, Hu Shuo reacted faster. He drew out his long sword and shouted to Xia Sheng: "Teacher Xia, what do you want to do!"

Xia Sheng looked at the unbearable tears in the eyes of Eunuch Zhao and the sadness on his face, shook his head and sighed softly: "Zhao Hao will not become a good emperor, so I can't let you pass the imperial edict."

"Bold!" Hu Shuo pulled the somewhat vague Eunuch Zhao behind him, and crossed his sword in front of him, looking at Xia Sheng with strange eyes.

This time, Xia Sheng finally looked at Hu Shuo, and then the surging sword aura in his body leaped out.

"If only Dean Hu is the only one who protects Eunuch Zhao today, you may not be able to stop me."

The azure blue martial arts pattern on Xia Sheng’s wrist pierced Hu Shuo’s eyes a little painful. He was shocked and murmured: “Wu Zun…How could this be…”

Xia Sheng did not draw his sword because he knew that Hu Shuo was no match for him at all, but continued: "Eunuch Zhao should be very clear about what the death of His Majesty means. I can tell you without any concealment that in the battle of Changbai Mountain, Emperor Yunyin and the Sword Saint were also severely damaged. I am afraid that it will be difficult to reach the peak without a hundred years of recovery, but the Demon Emperor can survive!"

"Next, if I expected it was good, the demon army would soon cross the Shuo River and invade my Dajin Mountains. It is hard to say whether the grassland people will tear up the Changyan Alliance, because Nalan Yuan and Nalan Zhuo also died at the ceremony of the Heaven Sacrifice. The Barbarian King Cangshan did not make an appointment this time. Who dares to ensure that the barbarians have not crossed Yinshan yet?"

"So, if Zhao Hao ascends the throne next, we all know what will happen. I am afraid Da Jin will be destroyed! Eunuch Zhao, the important task of the rise and fall of the country is in your hands now, and I hope you don't choose the wrong one!"

Xia Sheng's words were by no means absurd, which made Hu Shuo's hand holding the sword begin to tremble slightly, but he still stood in front of Eunuch Zhao and never retreated for a moment!

But Xia Sheng's words were not originally said to Hu Shuo.

So the next moment, the old Eunuch Zhao, who was full of tears, stood up from behind Hu Shuo. There was no longer a smile on his face as usual, and replaced by endless sadness. He stretched out his trembling and thin palm, took out a roll of yellow silk and a piece of jade from his arms, and gently placed it on the ground.

That is the will of Emperor Jin and the imperial seal!

Seeing this, Hu Shuo immediately looked sharp.

But unfortunately, before Hu Shuo could speak out, Eunuch Zhao suddenly pulled out a short dagger from his sleeve and waved it towards his neck.
Chapter completed!
