Zhao Gongming has been thinking about how Liu'er and others plan to escape.
The most likely possibility is internal and external collusion, but he feels that he has done a good job and the people around him are unlikely to betray him.
If he were an outsider, would he dare to show up at such a critical moment?
In the Heavenly Prison, Liu'er, Red Boy and others were like a few bullies, fighting for younger brothers and territory.
They didn't look like they knew each other at all, and they were even fighting to the death.
Zhao Gongming watched them from outside, frowning. "They probably knew we were watching, so they haven't made any move."
"Let down your guard a little, don't be so defensive, give them some space and see how they do."
Xiao Sheng quickly said, "Yes, I'll arrange it right away."
Then I went downstairs to prepare.
Zhao Gongming looked at Xiao Sheng's back and frowned. In fact, he felt that the person most likely to collude with the outsiders was Xiao Sheng.
Because Xiao Sheng was the second in command, although he was in charge, they were enemies during the Conferred Gods Ceremony. He even killed Xiao Sheng and put him on the Conferred Gods Ceremony.
He didn't believe that Xiao Sheng had no complaints against him.
If Xiao Sheng betrayed him, he thought it was very likely. And Xiao Sheng was also the most likely to work with these people to release the person.
Others are not qualified enough.
Xiao Sheng went downstairs to give instructions, and then turned around and got angry.
The deputy general beside him whispered, "General, why do you look so unhappy?"
Xiao Sheng snorted, "Zhao Gongming is going too far. He's always been suspicious of my intentions and actually thought I would betray Heaven and release the person without permission."
"He'll definitely be using public power to exact revenge this time. Even if I don't release the person, he'll find an excuse to settle accounts with me. I have to be meticulous and do better."
Then he said, "Watch the opportunity carefully. Don't let Zhao Gongming find an excuse to take action. In short, we must make sure everything is flawless. We absolutely cannot let him take revenge on his personal grudges."
The deputy general broke out in a cold sweat. It turned out to be true what they said about the top two in command not getting along.
This is all superficial.
He didn't dare to delay and hurried down to do his work.
How dare he call over his two disciples, Yao Shaosi and Chen Jiugong, who were also two of the four great generals.
The two leaned forward and asked, "Lord, what happened?"
Zhao Gongming said, "I suspect Xiao Sheng might rebel. Pay attention to his actions. If you find anything unusual, don't alert him. I will settle the score with him later."
The two of them quickly clasped their fists in agreement, while cold sweats broke out.
They felt that Zhao Gongming's desire to dig out the secret of Shachen was secondary, and his most likely intention was to use this opportunity to eliminate his political enemies.
Zhao Gongming's eyes were red with anger at this time. He felt that anyone could be the possibility, and the only ones he could trust were these two disciples.
Therefore, he did not consider how bad his image was in the eyes of the public at this moment.
He just wanted to dig out the secrets of Liu'er, Red Boy and others, implicate Shachen, and uncover even bigger secrets.
Three more days passed.
There was still nothing unusual, and it was impossible for Zhao Gongming to stand guard in front of the Heavenly Prison and watch it all the time.
Moreover, the Jade Emperor also asked him to report the situation. He went to report some daily affairs of the Heavenly Prison. At the same time, the Jade Emperor also instructed him to capture Yang Jian and others as soon as possible.
The Jade Emperor said, "At first, I listened to the advice of Li Changgeng and others, humbled myself, and sent people to persuade Yang Jian to surrender, but that traitor actually refused."
"He's living comfortably in Guanjiangkou now, and I feel uncomfortable thinking about this here. Arrange people to capture him as soon as possible."
"He has been to the Liusha River Cave before, so he must know a lot about what's going on there. He must have lied to me back then. Capture him and find out his secrets."
Zhao Gongming said: "Yang Jian has great magical power and a high level of cultivation. It will probably not be easy to capture him."
The Jade Emperor said calmly, "If you don't capture him now, it will be very difficult. Yang Jian is already so powerful now. If you don't take action now, when will you take action?"
Zhao Gongming frowned, his face grim.
After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "I understand. Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?"
Zhao Gongming's attitude was not good, but that was just how he was, and the Jade Emperor did not blame him.
He simply said calmly, "The Journey to the West catastrophe is about to begin, but everything is still unstable. Although I have taken back the power of the Jinghe Dragon King, the Journey to the West catastrophe has no beginning and is destined to be imperfect."
"Besides, the Dragon King of Jinghe River is still alive, and his children always look up to him as their leader. My words will never reach their destination."
Zhao Gongming nodded, he understood what the Jade Emperor meant.
Then he asked, "Then what does Your Majesty intend to do?"
The Jade Emperor said: "The Dragon King of Jinghe River must die, but he has made great contributions by offering his power. It would be a joke to kill him without any teaching."
"Find a way to get him involved in this matter, or make him descend to the mortal world. In short, I don't want to see him again."
Zhao Gongming's heart sank. Although he had expected the Jade Emperor to be ruthless, he had not expected him to be so vicious.
but.
This is what emperors are most wary of: powerful ministers.
He was also a powerful official, but he was very confident because he had enough strength, which the Dragon King of Jinghe did not have.
Therefore, he is powerful and the Jade Emperor dare not touch him and has to rely on him!
Zhao Gongming had a faint smile on his face. Of course he had to get rid of the Dragon King of Jinghe River, but he didn't intend to do it himself.
When the Jade Emperor told him about this kind of thing, he didn't really want him to do it.
It was just to tell him that the Jade Emperor could tell him whatever he did, and that he, Zhao Gongming, was the Jade Emperor's confidant.
