Chapter 276 Please let the emperor decide personally
"Today's matter is indeed difficult. I know that Your Highness wants to help, but in this situation, I don't want to burden Your Highness. Please put your own safety first." Yi Qianhuan said, and after looking around, he asked, "Your Highness, why can't I see Helian Ziyu?"
"This king has sent someone to guard Helian Ziyu. Madam, it's not just for the sake of our relationship. Fu'er once told this king that Helian Ziyu is surrounded by resentment and does not look like a blessed person. A national god needs an extremely perfect fate, so Helian Ziyu should not become a national god. So, if Madam has a way, please expose Helian Ziyu's true face and do not let him harm the people."
"That's natural." Yi Qianhuan said, looking down at his palm.
After she refused to become a national god, she did not realize that she was affected by this decision.
However, if she allowed Helian Ziyu to ascend to the throne of national god, it would definitely have a very bad impact on her in the future, and might even affect her karma.
To do this, she must stop Helian Ziyu from becoming the national god.
"Your Highness, I hope you won't keep watching over Helian Ziyu." Seeing Bei Zhanye's confusion, Yi Qianhuan said, "We still don't know who is standing behind Helian Ziyu. Therefore, I hope that person will show up tomorrow after hearing about what happened today. This way, it will be convenient for me to catch him in one fell swoop."
Bei Zhanye was silent for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement: "Okay, since the Crown Prince's wife has asked me to do so, I will do as you say."
After expressing his gratitude, Yi Qianhuan took Shen Yubao and Yao Yi Mobao to rest.
Time flies, the next day, in the Hall of Light.
It was time for court session. After Bei Zhanye recounted the cause and effect of what happened last night, Bei Yunting became furious.
"This is the capital, not a place for fighting and killing! Ji Chilian, as the head of the Northern Pacification Division, is responsible for protecting the ancient formation, but he used his power for personal gain and took Yi Mobao to the ancient formation without authorization, and even forcibly opened the formation! This is clearly disrespectful to the heroes!"
Bei Zhanye bowed and explained, "But Your Majesty, if the heroes are unwilling, they cannot successfully activate the power of the formation. Therefore, we can see that this matter is indeed extraordinary. Moreover, we did find many Dragon Shadow Guards and poisonous creatures at the original site. The Dragon Shadow Guards have a special status. If this matter involves the royal family, then we can't be involved!"
Bei Yunting was overwhelmed when he heard this: "So now they are also sticking to their own opinions and refusing to give in to each other?"
Bei Yunting said: "In this situation, we still have to ask the emperor to make the decision personally."
"Then bring them all up first and tell me the cause and effect of the matter. I want to see who has done such a heinous thing!" Bei Yunting took a deep breath and said this.
Soon, Ji Chilian, Yi Qianhuan, Shen Yubao, Yi Mobao and Shen Yaosi were invited up.
Different from their group, Helian Ziyu went on stage alone. The first thing he did when he saw Bei Yunting was to pay his respects.
"Your Majesty." Helian Ziyu was very respectful. While speaking, he did not forget to look up at Bei Yunting. He looked as if he was full of admiration for him.
Bei Yunting really liked Helian Ziyu's obedient appearance: "Helian Guoshen, as a candidate for Guoshen, you can actually be exempted from the formalities."
"That is indeed the rule, but I respect Your Majesty, so I want to pay my respects to Your Majesty. Your Majesty, even though I am only one step away from becoming a national god, I know very well in my heart that when I really encounter a crisis, I will be powerless to save the situation by myself, and I still need Your Majesty to make the decision for me."
"Helian Ziyu, you are such a flatterer. If you really respect the emperor, you don't need to express your respect over and over again. You can change your way instead of emphasizing it here all the time. It shows that you have bad intentions." Yi Mobao rested for a night. Although his body had not yet recovered, he had regained a lot of energy.
"Brother Mo, stop talking. Helian Ziyu knows how to act pitiful, but we don't. Let's pay our respects to the emperor." Shen Yubao said this, pretending to be weak and kneeling down, looking at Bei Yunting eagerly.
Bei Yunting was originally in a better mood because of Helian Ziyu's compliments, but when he saw Shen Yubao like this, he couldn't say anything even if he wanted to say something. He could only resign himself to his fate and waved his hand, "Okay, it's really useless for you to do these superficial things. If you have anything to say, just stand up and say it!"
"Helian Ziyu, tell me what happened yesterday first." Bei Yunting changed the subject and first looked at Helian Ziyu while speaking.
While Bei Yunting's words seemed fair and just, in fact, at this moment, the balance in his heart had already shifted.
Using his eyes to tell the two children to be patient, Yi Qianhuan looked aside calmly and listened to Helian Ziyu speak.
At the beginning, what Helian Ziyu said was true. It was indeed Ji Chilian and Yi Mobao who opened the ancient formation first, and then he discovered it.
But from then on, Helian Ziyu became a completely innocent and pitiful victim.
Not only did he say that the Mirror Without a Crown was his, he also said that he had never intended to kill anyone to silence them from the beginning, he just wanted to protect himself.
Helian Ziyu burst into tears, and looked extremely wronged and innocent. "I have always wanted to live in peace with everyone, but I don't know why my mother and my brothers hate me so much now. Your Majesty, if my successful becoming a national god really leads to the destruction of my family, then I would rather give up this position."
“Tsk, look at his blatant expression. It’s already this time, and he still says this. It would be strange if the emperor would agree to him.” Yi Mobao snorted, his eyes full of disgust.
As expected, just as Mo Bao expected, the emperor showed an expression of reluctance after hearing this: "Since the Crownless Mirror was indeed found by you, it is enough to prove that you are the one chosen by the magic weapon. Yi Qianhuan, now that things have come to this, do you have anything else to say?"
"Your Majesty, I just want to know where those Dragon Shadow Guards under Helian Ziyu came from." Yi Qianhuan went straight to the point, looked at Helian Ziyu and said, "The Dragon Shadow Guards belong to the royal family, which shows that Helian Ziyu must have the help of someone from the royal family. This person has been hiding in the dark with ulterior motives. I just want to know what his purpose is."
As Yi Qianhuan said this, everyone present fell silent without exception.
"Helian Ziyu, tell me, who sent these Dragon Shadow Guards to you?" Bei Yunting paused and added, "Don't worry, I'm not asking you about this to convict you directly, but to judge based on the circumstances. Just tell me."
