Next, Wang Yang and his group traveled together to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
In the earlier battle of Tahu City, the Ming Dynasty's martial arts masters suffered extremely heavy losses.
Because Wei Zhongxian, Yu Huatian, Lu Bing, and others were killed by Wang Yang.
This allowed Liu Xi, the Grand Eunuch, and Ji Gang, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, to rise to power in the Ming Dynasty court.
At this time, in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, at the location of the Eastern Investigation Bureau.
Inside the main hall, a man sat upright.
This man had a delicate, feminine face, was made up, and wore a eunuch's hat. Who else could he be but Liu Xi?
The Ming army's attack on Tahu City failed, Wei Zhongxian and others were killed, and Liu Xi smoothly rose to power, enjoying immense prestige.
After taking charge of the Eastern Depot, Liu Xi kept a close eye on Wang Yang's whereabouts.
Upon learning that Wang Yang had led his men down to Jiangnan after the Battle of Tahu City, Liu Xi felt much relieved.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps approached.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a subordinate enter the hall with a anxious expression.
"Um?"
Liu Xi saw this, his face darkened, and he asked coldly:
"What's the rush?"
The subordinate pursed his lips, made no attempt to hide anything, and proceeded to inform him of Wang Yang's trip to the Huangshan Martial Arts Conference and the Murong family, among other things.
"What?"
Upon hearing the news, Liu Xi was immediately shocked and panicked.
He was already extremely wary of Wang Yang.
Now that Liu Xi knows that Jiang Biehe and Murong Wudi both died because of Wang Yang, he is even more alarmed.
After all, he had a significant relationship with Murong Wudi and Jiang Biehe.
Earlier, he joined forces with Murong Wudi and others to capture the Mad Lion Tie Ruyun, intending to take the opportunity to push Jiang Biehe to the position of martial arts alliance leader.
But now, both Jiang Biehe and Murong Wudi are dead.
Liu Xi naturally wondered if the matter was related to him.
The more Liu Xi thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his breathing became rapid and disordered.
After a slight pause, he quickly asked:
Where are Wang Yang and the others right now?
Upon hearing this, the subordinate dared not delay and quickly replied:
"Reporting to the Grand Eunuch, judging from the route taken by Wang Yang and his men, they seem to be heading towards our capital, the capital of the Great Ming Dynasty!"
"ah?"
Upon hearing his subordinate's reply, Liu Xi panicked, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Are they heading towards the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"
"Could they be after me?"
Liu Xi muttered to himself, his heart pounding.
He didn't linger and hurriedly left the Eastern Depot.
Before long, Liu Xiren arrived at the Embroidered Uniform Guard's Zhenfu Division and met Ji Gang.
"Um?"
Upon seeing Liu Xi, Ji Gang was slightly surprised and uttered a questioning sound:
"What wind has blown us here today, bringing Commander Liu to my Garrison Command?"
Liu Xi did not rush to answer. He dismissed his attendants and then spoke:
"Commander Ji, how can you still sit still? I just received news that Wang Yang has led his men toward the capital of our Great Ming Dynasty!"
Upon hearing what Liu Xi said, Ji Gang frowned slightly, but his expression remained largely unchanged.
After a slight pause, he finally spoke:
"He's just a mere martial arts practitioner; he's come, so why is Governor Liu so worried?"
"Could it be that Wang Yang, a mere mortal, can turn the world upside down?"
Seeing that Ji Gang looked indifferent.
Liu Xi's expression grew even more somber, and he then revealed the news that Jiang Biehe and Murong Wudi were dead.
After listening to what Liu Xi said, Ji Gang's expression became much more serious.
He was naturally aware of the battle at Tahu City.
They also knew that Wang Yang was quite capable; even the former commander Lu Bing had died at his hands.
But in Ji Gang's view, no matter how powerful Wang Yang was, he was just a martial artist.
But now, he has learned that Murong Wudi, Jiang Biehe and others have all died, and that Wang Yang is leading his men to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
This made Ji Gang somewhat uneasy.
"Chief Supervisor Liu, are you saying that Wang Yang is very likely coming for us?"
After a moment of silence, Ji Gang spoke with a cold expression.
"Otherwise what?"
Liu Xi countered with a question, then said in a deep voice, "You don't think he's here to visit our capital, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Gang's expression darkened further.
Seeing that Ji Gang remained silent for a long time, Liu Xi hurriedly asked:
"Commander Ji, what should we do?"
Upon hearing Liu Xiyan's question, Ji Gang snapped out of his thoughts and coldly smiled, saying:
"Lord Liu, please don't panic. Wang Yang hasn't even arrived in our capital yet. We can't afford to lose our composure!"
"In the earlier battle of Tahu City, Wang Yang killed many martial arts masters of our Ming Dynasty, and it was because of him that our Ming army suffered a crushing defeat."
“In the Ming Dynasty, there are many people who hate Wang Yang to the bone.”
At this point, Ji Gang couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, revealing a sinister smile.
"oh?"
After Ji Gang said this, Liu Xi narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled slyly:
"Commander Ji means... to use someone else to do the dirty work?"
Ji Gang nodded and said:
"That's right! The people Wang Yang resents the most are the Emperor and the Prince of Yan!"
"We thought we could crush the Song Dynasty, but unexpectedly, because of Wang Yang, we suffered a crushing defeat."
"If they knew that Wang Yang was coming to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, what do you think they would do?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xi's face lit up with joy, and he quickly said:
"We will do everything in our power to kill Wang Yang on the way!"
As he spoke, Liu Xi couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"Ha ha!
"Commander Ji's thinking is indeed very insightful!"
"I will go to the palace to see His Majesty immediately and also convey the news that Wang Yang is coming to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to the Prince of Yan!"
"In addition, news is also circulating in the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty."
"I'm sure that when the time comes, many people will make a move against Wang Yang."
Ji Gang, unsure whether to acknowledge Liu Xi's words, smiled calmly and said, "Then I'll trouble Supervisor Liu to make the trip."
Liu Xi nodded slightly, said nothing more, and then hurriedly turned and left.
...
On the other side.
Wang Yang and his entourage are on their way to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
Tie Xinlan was very happy, and a strange feeling gradually grew in her heart towards Wang Yang.
After all, the main reason for her trip to the capital of the Ming Dynasty was her previous request.
His father, Kuangshi Tieruyun, was captured and imprisoned by Liu Xi, Murong Wudi, and others.
Wang Yang not only agreed to help her avenge her, but also left behind Ming Cult masters such as Yang Xiao and Fan Yao to take care of her father, Tie Ruyun.
Murong Wudi has already died at Wang Yang's hands; next, it will be Liu Xi's turn.
After thinking for a moment, Tie Xinlan turned her gaze and secretly glanced at Wang Yang.
Upon seeing Wang Yang's handsome profile, Tie Xinlan couldn't help but be captivated.
Just then, Zhao Min moved closer to Wang Yang, glanced at Jiang Yuyan who was closely following him, and then spoke:
"Young master, I'm afraid the journey to the capital of the Ming Dynasty will not be so smooth."
Zhao Min said with a solemn expression.
It was obvious that Wang Yang's grand and ostentatious journey to the Ming capital would inevitably be discovered by Ming spies.
