Chapter 010 The Name of the God of War
Imperial City, study room.
Emperor Wu was wearing a golden dragon robe and sat upright on the Nine Heavens Dragon Chair, with a faint emperor's power filling the surroundings.
The prison guard knelt on the ground, Huo Qi stood aside, while the inseparable Eunuch Hai was not in the room.
"The emperor is as expected, but someone sneaked into the Heavenly Prison to attempt to kill the prisoner." Huo Qi knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "It is not good for low-level officials to do things, so those who trespassed in the Heavenly Prison escaped. Please punish the emperor."
"I had expected it." Emperor Wu pondered, "Get up first, let's talk about it. Are you injured?"
"Thank you for your concern, it's okay to be humble." Huo Qi stood up, "Your Majesty, the prison guard has something to say."
"Oh?" Emperor Wu's expression moved slightly, and he looked at the prison guard kneeling beside him, "What do you have to say to me?"
"Your Majesty, please give me kindness and save the villain's family." The jailer said excitedly, "It is not a pity for the villain to die. As long as the emperor saves the villain's family, the villain is willing to do anything for the emperor. Even if the villain dies, there will be no hesitation at all."
"Family?" Emperor Wu's heart moved, "Huo Qi."
"I am in a humble position!" Huo Qi hurriedly stepped out.
"Send a team of imperial guards to save his family immediately." Emperor Wu ordered.
"As for the order." Huo Qi immediately received his order and left. In less than ten breaths, Huo Qi returned. "Emperor, the Silver Armored Imperial Guard has set out."
"Okay." Emperor Wu nodded and then looked at the prison guard, "I will keep your family safe. Tell me the truth."
"Thank you, the emperor." The prison guard's expression suddenly felt relaxed, and then he slowly said, "Your Majesty, what the villain does is forced by the Lord of War."
"Marquis of War God?" A glimmer of light flashed in Emperor Wu's eyes, and he finally found the mastermind behind it.
Huo Qi stood aside and heard the three words "War God Marquis", his tiger's body shook slightly, but it quickly recovered, and Emperor Wu did not notice it.
"Yes." The jailer continued, "This morning, the villain was summoned to the Marquis of War God's Mansion. The Marquis of War God used the lives of the villain's family to force the villain to close the protective air wall of the battlefield while the emperor was watching the battle of life and death."
"Your Majesty, the villain knew he had committed a death sentence, but the lives of the villain's family were all in the hands of the God of War, and the villain had no choice..."
After obtaining the guarantee from Emperor Wu, the prison guards said everything they knew and told him about the matter that the Lord of War God forced him.
After detaining the prisoner again, Huo Qi returned to the study room.
"Cough cough." At this time, Eunuch Hai walked in with his hands covering his chest, his face a little pale, as if he was injured.
"Emperor." Eunuch Hai was about to salute, but was dragged by Emperor Wu.
"Eunuch Hai, this plan is successful, but it's all thanks to you." Emperor Wu said with a smile. Then, seeing that Eunuch Hai's face was a little pale, he couldn't help but ask with worry, "Are you injured?"
"Your Majesty, the old minister is fine." Eunuch Hai felt the concern of Emperor Wu, and felt a warm feeling in his heart. He did not serve the wrong person.
"Eunuch Hai, I..." Huo Qi looked ashamed.
"Mr. Huo, this is what I asked myself before. If I don't do this, it will definitely not be effective in making fake or real." Eunuch Hai said comfortingly, "Of course, it is up to my emperor's plan to know who is behind the scenes."
It turned out that the big drama of trespassing into the Heavenly Prison and killing people to silence people was actually arranged by Emperor Wu. The person who broke into the Heavenly Prison was nothing but Eunuch Hai.
The prisoner had just faced a murderous disaster, and perhaps he had not noticed that Tianlao was heavily guarded, and he could not enter without the strength of the seven hundred-year-old Death Realm. Since the man in black was able to break in, it showed that his strength was extremely strong and at least the strength of the seven hundred-year-old Death Realm. However, he was defeated by Huo Qi, who was only six hundred years old Death Realm. This was obviously illogical - the only explanation was that Tianlao defenders deliberately let the water go.
All of this is acting, the purpose is to let the jailer understand that the mastermind behind the scenes should be eliminated and he will be quickly eliminated. In this way, the estrangement between the two arose, and the jailer will take everything for fear of the safety of his family.
"Marquis of War God!" Emperor Wu looked solemn and began to search for information about Marquis of War God Marquis in his mind.
The Marquis of War God, who was at the age of 800, was the War God County located in the northwest border of the Great Wu Dynasty.
The War God County covers an area of 30 million miles. Because it is located in the northwest border, the people are brave in the people's customs. Everyone in the county rides horses and shoots arrows, so they are a good man in marching and fighting.
According to the dynasty of the Great Wu Dynasty, the county magistrates could have up to one million troops, otherwise they would be punished for cooperating with the enemy and treason. Most of the thirty-six county magistrates followed this dynasty and had no more than one million troops.
The Marquis of the God of War had millions of troops, of which 500,000 were brave and good at fighting cavalry, which was incomparable to other marquises of the county.
In recent years, the Marquis of War God has not made any big moves because he has been stranded in Tiangang City, which has created an illusion of greed for wealth in the imperial city. However, Emperor Wu learned from the Secret Hall that although the Marquis of War God was in the inner city, he had been secretly contacting the head of the county and had been secretly recruiting soldiers and horses. Now the Marquis of War God County has almost 1.5 million troops, far exceeding the number stipulated by the Great Wu Dynasty.
The War God Hou always thought that the person he did was unaware of, but he did not expect that all his actions were monitored by the Secret Hall of Emperor Wu's secret department.
If the Marquis of War God returns to his county to do these things, it may be difficult to get the news because it is not the territory of the Dark Palace, but how can he escape from the secret activities at the foot of the Emperor?
The Dark Palace was established by the former emperor and was directly responsible to the emperor. It is equivalent to the emperor's third eye, monitoring the ministers and suppressing our prestige.
"I finally showed my feet." Emperor Wu smiled coldly in his heart, "The 36 marquis of the county will not surrender to me. It is time to kill the chicken to warn the monkey and shock the prestige of the court."
"Mr. Huo, what's wrong with you?" At this time, Eunuch Hai's anxious voice came.
"Huh?" Emperor Wu came back to his senses from his thoughts, turned to look at Huo Qi, and his brows frowned slightly.
At this time, Huo Qi looked resentful and fierce. He clenched his fists with both hands and his nails penetrated deeply into the flesh, but he could not feel any pain. In his state, he seemed to see the enemy who killed his father.
"Huo Qi, wake up!" Seeing this, Emperor Wu immediately yelled.
Huhu--
Huo Qi's body shook, all the evil light in his eyes faded away, and all the hostility surrounding his body dissipated. His body was unstable and he almost fell down.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Huo Qi said excitedly with kneeling on one knee.
"Huo Qi, why are you just now?" Emperor Wu said with a big move.
When Huo Qi heard Emperor Wu ask, his expression was a little complicated. He sighed slightly, and then he said, "Your Majesty, your father is actually a fight against the king and the prince, and I am the descendant of the king and the prince."
"Fight against the king and prince?" Emperor Wu's heart moved.
"Yes." Huo Qi continued, "A hundred years ago, the Great Wu Dynasty had no war gods, only war kings and princes. The fierce reputation of war king Huo Gang was so powerful that it was the world. But..."
Speaking of this, Huo Qi's eyes ejaculated with a strong fire of hatred, "Huo Guxing, the beast who killed his father and brother! He actually poisoned the banquet and the food of his father's 400th birthday. He drove all the Huo clan on the spot, and then told the world that it was the work of the people of the neighboring Qin Dynasty. Ten years later, Huo Guxing brought the people who "poisoned" that year to the court and reported to the advanced emperor to kill all his enemies. Since then, the advanced emperor has conferred the title of Huo Gu as the Marquis of War God until now."
"Oh, how did you know these secrets?" Emperor Wu narrowed his eyes, and he didn't expect that there was such a plot. The records about the Marquis of War God were only found after Huo Guxing became the Marquis of War God, but there was no record at all before. As for the Marquis of War, there were some records in the royal scriptures, but not many.
Emperor Wu did not completely believe Huo Qi's words because of this.
"I was sent to Tianwu Academy by my father, so I escaped." Huo Qi said, "As for these secrets, my father used secret techniques to rub the jade slip before he died, and then he went back and forth before finally falling into my hands."
As he said that, Huo Qi took out a white jade slip and handed it to Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu took the jade slip and his vitality penetrated into it. An instant message came to his mind, which was exactly the same as Huo Qi said.
"War the King and the Lord! War God and the Lord!" Emperor Wu's eyes flashed brightly, and he returned the jade slip to Huo Qi, and said solemnly, "Huo Qi, this time, I will return you to the reputation of fighting against the King and the Huo family!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Huo Qi looked excited and immediately thanked him.
In the past ten years since he got the jade slip, his heart has been filled with hatred. Although he really wanted to kill his enemy immediately, he also understood the gap between him and the Lord of War God. If he exposed his identity, he would definitely cause death, because he would always endure it and secretly accumulate strength, hoping to kill the enemy one day.
This time, he finally found an opportunity.
"Well, the war god marquis is ambition, I have always wanted to deal with it quickly." Emperor Wu said in contemplation, "But, he was a title of the late emperor after all. If there is no legitimate reason, it is inappropriate to kill the county marquis. The other 35-way county marquis will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble."
After pondering for a moment, Emperor Wu ordered Eunuch Hai, "Eunuch Hai, you will be able to send out the news, and the prison guards asked to see me, intending to tell who the commander behind the scenes is."
Eunuch Hai's eyes lit up and he immediately took the order and left, "Yes."
"Huo Qi." Emperor Wu shouted.
"I am in a humble position." Huo Qi replied.
"You send a team of golden armored guards to guard the sky prison strictly, waiting for uninvited visitors." Emperor Wu said, "In addition, don't kill them all. Put some fish that missed the net back. Follow me and catch me a current situation."
Huo Qi's eyes lit up, his face was filled with joy, "Yes."
After Huo Qi retreated, a silver-armored imperial guard soon walked in.
"Your Majesty, when the humble position arrived, the prison guards and their family were killed by thirteen.
"Marquis of War God, you are really decisive in killing!" Emperor Wu stood with his hands behind his back, and a ray of light shot out of his eyes, "This time, it depends on how you escape from my palm!"
