Even he himself did not expect that his deeds would spread throughout the academy after he left.
The story of capturing two evil slaves was passed on by word of mouth and exaggerated, and eventually Ye Chen was described as a big shot who was even more capable of fortune-telling than the King of Black Crystal.
The news that there was an evil organization in the royal city that could manipulate people's hearts spread from the academy to the entire royal city at an extremely fast speed.
Suddenly the whole city was in uproar and everyone was uneasy.
However, when everyone heard that the culprit had been caught by the newly promoted Marquis Ye Chen, their originally frightened hearts gradually calmed down.
Ye Chen's prestige in everyone's mind has risen to another level.
Of course, this is all later.
Ye Chen at this time.
Sitting in the carriage, thinking about what I would face next.
The scale of this evil organization seemed even larger than he had imagined.
What is the purpose of this evil organization?
Who is the mastermind behind this?
Ye Chen originally wanted to interrogate Li Jin, but this guy refused to speak and there was nothing he could do to him.
The only solution now is to tie him up and take him to the Xuanbing Palace and hand him over to the Empress for handling.
…
at the same time.
In the Xuanbing Palace.
All the civil and military officials in the court gathered together again, and once again set off a thunderous roar of worship.
In the front row, Frost Soul King Ling Jiuyou took the lead in attacking.
"Your Majesty, I recently heard that General Ye Chen, the Great Protector of the Nation, has received the imperial order but has not yet considered serving the country. Instead, he has been procrastinating and even sending his three girlfriends to the Imperial Academy. He has failed to live up to your Majesty's trust. I request that you severely punish and investigate him!"
As soon as Ling Jiuyou finished speaking, the officials of Frost Soul Heavenly King's faction began to complain to the emperor one after another:
"Your Majesty, every word the Heavenly King said is true. I have verified that he is indeed in the academy. He simply ignored your words. I implore Your Majesty to punish him severely!"
"Your Majesty, there is no point in keeping such a disloyal and unrighteous person. I urge Your Majesty to immediately abolish all his titles and official positions and replace him with someone of both virtue and talent. Uh... I think Ling Fang from the lineage of the Frost Soul Heavenly King is a good choice."
"Your Majesty, everything the above gentlemen have said makes perfect sense. To ensure the eternal prosperity of the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom, Your Majesty, please make a decision as soon as possible!"
“…”
Sitting on the dragon throne, the empress narrowed her narrow eyes slightly when she heard the ministers talking to each other below.
She glanced at the others and spoke in a cold and majestic voice from her red lips:
"Do the other ministers share the same ideas as Frost Soul Heavenly King and those who previously proposed deposing Ye Chen?"
Ao Beiming, the King of Cold Chi, and Mo Wusheng, the King of Dark Frost, remained silent, their eyelids slightly drooping, as if they were asleep.
Only the Black Crystal King Leng Guanxing had a cold expression and looked at a figure beside him.
Duke Protector Leng Hanjiang walked out slowly, bowed to the empress and said, "Your Majesty, I have an objection."
"Please speak, Duke."
Seeing that it was Leng Hanjiang who spoke, the empress seemed to relax a little and her eyes became softer.
Leng Hanjiang said, "As far as I know, General Ye Chen's sending three girls to school was fake. His real intention was to secretly investigate the movements of the evil organization. Ye Chen has not failed Your Majesty's trust, but is doing his utmost to investigate the case. I hope Your Majesty will understand!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the court began to discuss again, and the ministers whispered to each other from time to time.
At this moment, beside the Frost Soul Heavenly King, a middle-aged man also wearing a duke's robe sneered:
"It's hard to tell whether what the Duke of Protectorate said is to excuse Ye Chen or whether it's true. If you can produce real evidence, then I will think that Ye Chen really went to investigate the case. If Ye Chen has found nothing now, then even if you say a lot, you will not be able to defend yourself and you will be suspected of being in cahoots with Ye Chen!"
Everyone looked over and saw that it was actually Ling Shuang, the Duke of Pingyang.
Leng Hanjiang looked at the one in front with a cold gaze, "Lord Pingyang, please stop slandering me. What will you say if Ye Chen gets the evidence back this time?"
"Hmph, since you're asking sincerely, I can make a bet with you!"
Ling Shuang said proudly: "If Ye Chen really finds evidence this time, I will kneel down and kowtow to you in public, but if he doesn't find any evidence..."
The final words are self-evident.
Leng Hanjiang's face suddenly turned ugly when he heard this.
Although he knew that Ye Chen had indeed gone to investigate the case, he might not be able to find any trace of the evil organization in the academy.
If Ye Chen really can't find anything by then, the reputation of his title as the Duke of Protector of the Country will be completely destroyed.
And at this moment.
Outside the shrine, a voice suddenly came:
"Duke, promise him."
When Leng Hanjiang heard this familiar voice, he immediately turned around and looked towards the gate of the temple.
I saw a handsome young man slowly walking through the gate and towards this side.
"Ye Chen!!"
All the civil and military officials turned around at once, and all their eyes were focused on Ye Chen.
At this moment, even the Heavenly King Han Chi and the Heavenly King Ming Shuang, who had been dozing off, slowly opened their eyes and glanced at Ye Chen with sharp eyes.
Leng Guanxing folded his hands in front of him and looked leisurely in the direction of Ling Jiuyou.
Ling Jiuyou's eyes were cold, and his hands were slightly clenched under his sleeves.
He was also puzzled in his heart. How could a small cultivator in the Condensation Realm, who was like an ant in his eyes, repeatedly upset the heartstrings of him, the King of Heaven.
On the high dragon throne.
At this moment, the empress's delicate hands tightly grasped the dragon head handle, and a hint of anticipation appeared in her phoenix eyes.
When the officials in the court saw Ye Chen coming, they consciously made a wide path in the middle, allowing him to pass through the crowd in an instant and reach the front.
