Chapter 460 Who Wants to Offer Sacrifice to Me?

"Please forgive me, both stewards!"

"Little Dengzi was careless and almost fell into the enemy's trap. If he hadn't been rescued in time by Lord Xuan, little Dengzi would have died by now."

Deng Weixian simply knelt down to apologize and told him everything that had happened before.

After listening to what Deng Weixian said, the two stewards frowned and looked at each other.

Zhao Feng saw his godfather nodded slightly to him and understood that they both had the same idea at this time.

"The rats in the palace have not been eliminated!"

Zhao Feng looked at Li Xuan awkwardly, looking a little embarrassed.

Before sending Li Xuan to monitor Bilege, he promised that he had arranged things for Deng Weixian and could guarantee his safety.

Although Deng Weixian was deceived and led out of Banyueyuan, it happened just like that, and Zhao Feng could not escape the blame.

But Deng Weixian was right in front of him at this time, and Zhao Feng couldn't say anything directly to Li Xuan.

After all, in front of Deng Weixian, Zhao Feng still had to save some face.

Zhao Feng coughed dryly, then frowned and criticized Deng Weixian:

"Such a crude trick can deceive you. If Master A Xuan hadn't appeared in time, our good plan would have been flawed."

Deng Weixian said in fear: "Little Deng is guilty..."

Before Deng Weixian finished speaking, Zhao Feng interrupted him:

"Don't talk nonsense. You must remember Master A Xuan's life-saving grace."

"This incident should be regarded as a lesson. Don't make the same mistake again in the future."

"Do you understand?"

Zhao Feng's words were loud but insignificant, and Deng Weixian was stunned.

He didn't follow the instructions and stay in Banyue Courtyard, so he fell into danger and almost ruined the arrangements of the two general managers.

Deng Weixian was prepared to be punished, but Zhao Feng just said a few words to him lightly. It seemed that there would be no substantial punishment.

He glanced up uncertainly, and just happened to see Zhao Feng and Li Xuan exchanging glances.

He was even more surprised to find that Li Xuan's eyes were very sharp, and Zhao Feng's eyes were full of helplessness and...

And flattery?

Although he only glanced for a short moment, Deng Weixian couldn't help but wonder if he had seen it wrong.

But he understood a little, it seemed that the cat next to him had strongly protected him.

"Is it because of my sister?"

"Master Xuan protected me once in front of General Manager Zhao for my sister's face?"

Deng Weixian remembered the situation when Yu'er introduced Li Xuan to him in Jingyang Palace before.

He and Li Xuan didn't know each other before. If it wasn't for his sister's face, he couldn't think of any reason why Li Xuan cared about him so much.

As his mind raced, Deng Weixian responded very quickly:

"Thank you, General Manager, for your magnanimity!"

"Thank you, Master Xuan, for your grace of rebirth!"

"Little Dengzi will never forget it!!!"

Li Xuan looked at Deng Weixian's reaction and nodded slightly.

The two stewards also smiled.

"This kid is really smart."

Li Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

He was not moved by Deng Weixian calling him Master Xuan, but by the phrase "Master Steward" Deng Weixian used.

The father-son relationship between Steward Shang and Zhao Feng is a good story in the palace, so almost everyone knows their relationship.

Deng Weixian obviously also knows this relationship, especially since he is Zhao Bugao's adopted son.

Although Zhao Bugao is now marginalized for betraying the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in name, the two stewards in front of him are Deng Weixian's godfather and godfather.

Deng Weixian didn't have much confidence to speak in front of the two stewards because of Zhao Bugao.

And most people would always be smart and not know the difference when facing the two stewards.

Some people value Steward Shang more. After all, his qualifications and strength are there. To put it bluntly, the position in the Ministry of Internal Affairs was given to Zhao Feng by Steward Shang, so Zhao Feng could sit there.

Some people value Zhao Feng more, thinking that Zhao Feng is the current steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Even if the steward Shang was powerful in the past, he is not as useful as Zhao Feng now that he has retreated behind the scenes.

But in fact, Deng Weixian's approach is the most correct for this kind of thing.

That is to blur the line and not distinguish the importance of the two.

Because these two stewards, whoever dislikes Deng Weixian, has the ability to make Deng Weixian fall into ruin.

Deng Weixian's "Master Steward" seems to be thanking Zhao Feng, but it makes sense no matter how you listen to it.

Even Li Xuan can hear this, let alone the two stewards who have stayed in the palace for a lifetime.

"Wait aside first, and then go back with us."

Zhao Feng said to Deng Weixian with a smile.

He is more optimistic about Deng Weixian now.

Today, the episode of Deng Weixian being tricked did not make Zhao Feng look down on Deng Weixian.

After Zhao Bugao's affair was exposed, Zhao Feng intended to cultivate Deng Weixian.

But Zhao Bugao's precedent forced Zhao Feng to be more cautious.

He is too old to stand a second betrayal.

After Zhao Bugao was detained in Yanqu Palace, Zhao Feng had been keeping an eye on Deng Weixian, and later asked Zhao Bugao to tell Deng Weixian about his true situation.

But Deng Weixian's reaction did not disappoint Zhao Feng.

Even though he knew that Zhao Bugao had lost power, Deng Weixian showed no sign of turning his back on him. He still came to learn martial arts and to pay respects.

Although Deng Weixian was confused in private, he finally decided to continue to recognize Zhao Bugao as his godfather.

This made Zhao Feng very satisfied.

As for what happened today, Zhao Feng didn't blame Deng Weixian much.

After all, this is just a thirteen-year-old child. Even if his martial arts talent is good, his worldly skills still need to be polished.

On the contrary, if Deng Weixian seemed too sophisticated, Zhao Feng would have to observe for a while longer.

Of course, the most important thing is that in Zhao Feng's view, Deng Weixian has an indispensable advantage, and that is good luck.

If he hadn't been lucky and persisted until the moment Li Xuan arrived, he would never have been able to escape the pursuit of the two eunuchs in black clothes.

And Zhao Feng, who has been struggling for so many years, naturally knows how important good luck is.

At this moment, no one knew that Zhao Feng had already made a very important decision in his heart.

At this time, Li Xuan jumped on Zhao Feng's shoulder, meowed, and looked at his injured arm.

Zhao Feng laughed and said casually:

"It's just some superficial injuries, don't worry about it."

Although Zhao Feng said this, Li Xuan still asked Zhao Feng to raise his hand, and then touched his wound with his tail.

The yin and yang true energy was slowly injected, and Li Xuan quickly examined the wound and then began to treat it.

Zhao Feng was right, it was really just a flesh wound, and there was no residual energy from anyone else in the wound.

Seeing that Zhao Feng's injury was not serious, Li Xuan directly activated the Yin and Yang Qi to heal his bone-deep trauma.

Zhao Feng is a fourth-grade warrior, and his perception of his body is extremely keen.

When he saw Li Xuan retracting his tail, he immediately took off the blood-stained bandage and found that the wound on his arm was gone, and the skin was smooth, leaving no scars.

The physique of a fourth-grade warrior was already extraordinary. Even if it was just Zhao Feng himself, the wound could be fully recovered in less than half a month. Li Xuan just used his own yin and yang energy to speed up the process.

"Axuan, your methods are getting more and more amazing now."

Zhao Feng praised it and threw away the bloody bandage happily.

Deng Weixian, who was waiting on the side, was even more stunned when he saw this scene, feeling that Li Xuan's strength was becoming more and more unfathomable.

He couldn't help but swallow and thought to himself: "Not only is he human, but he also has such great strength and the ability to help people heal their injuries..."

"Is Master Ah Xuan the legendary spiritual beast!?"

"No, no, it must be more than just an ordinary spiritual beast."

Deng Weixian recalled the rumors he had heard, but felt that Li Xuan was much more powerful than those rumors.

Li Xuan didn't know that Deng Weixian was shocked. In his opinion, these were things he did casually.

"This is how the same thing?"

Li Xuan pointed to the mess in front of him and asked Zhao Feng.

It seemed that the palace was very lively last night.

If I had known that Li Xuan would have come back earlier, instead of continuing to watch Bileg sleep in the Desert Pavilion.

"The mice we caught last night were quite big."

Zhao Feng said, taking Li Xuan two steps forward and coming to several corpses.

"Axuan, do you recognize this person?"

Zhao Feng asked, pointing to one of the corpses.

The corpse was short and fat, and was wearing a stone-green floral dress, which was very different from the clothes of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Compared to others, this person's body was relatively well preserved, with only a few fist-sized holes in his eyes, throat and heart.

From the clothes and appearance of the corpse, Li Xuan recognized this person's identity.

"Isn't this the great eunuch?"

"I remember that Heng Lian's external skills are not weak. I was taught a lesson by you in Yanqu Hall before."

"He didn't hurt you, did he?"

Li Xuan remembered that Zhao Feng was one against three, and he easily dealt with all three eunuchs.

Although the three great eunuchs had fought with Wei Chengji of Yanqu Palace first, the gap in strength between them and Zhao Feng was still obvious.

Li Xuan remembered that the eunuch in green clothes in front of him was not of the same generation as Zhao Feng, but was much younger.

"Of course not him."

Zhao Feng shook his head, smiled, and explained: "His name is Duan Gui, and he is one of the ten great eunuchs in the palace today."

"But with this guy's level of cultivation, if he wants to hurt me, he will have no chance in this life."

Looking at Duan Gui's body on the ground, Zhao Feng said jokingly.

Zhao Feng pointed to the body with only half left on the side, and then said: "The one who injured me was his godfather. The old immortal has mastered horizontal training, and it took a lot of effort to kill him."

"After the death of several of them, the inheritance of eunuchs in this palace has lost another line."

Zhao Feng looked at the ruins around him and sighed.

Li Xuan looked at the several corpses on the ground. Unexpectedly, Manager Shang and Zhao Feng killed a whole line of people overnight.

"Are they the mice in the palace?"

"Are the people who are chasing Deng Weixian also their people?"

Li Xuan asked immediately.

Zhao Feng slowly shook his head: "Everyone in their lineage should have died here."

Manager Shang also said: "It seems that the mice were not caught completely."

Li Xuan frowned and couldn't help asking:

"Did Da Mo really win over so many people in the palace?"

The scene in front of him and the fact that there were other desert spies in the palace made Li Xuan feel uneasy like never before.

He used to feel that this palace was at least much safer than outside.

But now it seems that it is not much better.

Although the rules in the palace can provide certain restrictions, if someone violates the rules, the palace is the most dangerous place.

"Ah Xuan, don't worry." Shang Zongguan comforted.

"Rather than saying they are working for the desert, it's better to say they are working for themselves."

"For them, the desert is just an external force that they can use to achieve their goals."

At this time, Zhao Feng took out a blood-stained cloth and showed it to Li Xuan.

"Ah Xuan, take a look."

"See what these bastards originally wanted to do?"

Li Xuan saw the bloody words on the cloth, and his pupils shrank immediately.

The content written on the cloth really shocked the cat.

Duan Gui used his name as the eunuch to report the rebellion of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and counted Shang Zongguan and Zhao Feng's collusion with foreign enemies and joined forces with the desert to poison Emperor Yongyuan.

In the chaos, Duan Gui called on other eunuchs to unite and besiege the Ministry of Internal Affairs, beheading Shang Zongguan and Zhao Feng, the two old traitors, to sacrifice to the spirit of Emperor Yongyuan in heaven.

And the last paragraph on the cloth made Li Xuan shudder.

Duan Gui actually wanted to stabilize the chaos in the palace and then welcome King Zheng to the palace to take charge of the overall situation.

Although the words were written a little obscure, the meaning of welcoming King Zheng as the new emperor was already very clear.

Li Xuan glanced at Deng Weixian who was waiting on the side.

But the two stewards did not intend to let him leave.

Li Xuan lowered his tail and wrote with his back to Deng Weixian.

As a result, Zhao Feng directly said to Li Xuan: "Ah Xuan, he has passed my test. Even if you want him to regret it, he has no chance to regret it now."

Zhao Feng, who has always been easy to talk to, said to Li Xuan in such a serious tone for the first time.

Li Xuan didn't care, and still wrote with his back to Deng Weixian's sight and asked:

"Is King Zheng involved in this?"

"It's unlikely." Shang, the steward on the side, suddenly said, and he continued without hesitation: "With King Zheng's means, it's not just like this."

Deng Weixian heard Shang's words clearly.

Li Xuan stared with dissatisfaction, but Shang just smiled and didn't care.

"This is too high-end, isn't it?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but worry about Deng Weixian.

But at this time, while Deng Weixian was surprised, his face was more excited.

Li Xuan sighed, shook his head slightly, and said nothing more, just hoping that Deng Weixian would be blessed in the future.

"Duan Gui is most likely to act on his own."

General Manager Shang continued to analyze.

"If Duan Gui succeeds, he will be a loyal minister, and he will be second to none in the palace in the future."

Li Xuan nodded. If Emperor Yongyuan really died, someone must take the responsibility.

Duan Gui put the responsibility on General Manager Shang and Zhao Feng, and then supported King Zheng himself. He was a good plan.

"The second is the instructions of the desert. Regardless of whether the plan succeeds or not, it is a good thing for them to be in chaos."

"As for the last one."

"Of course, it may also be a test by King Zheng."

General Manager Shang's words made Li Xuan more and more heartbroken.

No matter which possibility it is, it is not a good thing for them.

Even though Duan Gui is dead now, there are still rats hiding in the palace, always ready for the next plot.

Meanwhile.

In Ganlu Palace.

Eight figures kneeled neatly here.

Their gorgeous flowery clothes of different colors showed their identities.

However, the existence that everyone in the palace feared on weekdays was now kneeling here in fear.

They had been kneeling here for a night, and just now they saw the real master.

In front of them was the Emperor Yongyuan who was rumored to be "unconscious and uncertain about life and death".

Emperor Yongyuan supported his chin with one hand and looked majestically at the eight eunuchs in front of him.

"I heard that you want to unite to offer sacrifices to my spirit in heaven?"
