Chapter 53: Daliang Attacked
Daliang, the imperial palace in the capital.
Ye Xinglan was wearing a black dragon robe and walking hurriedly in the corridor. His face was gloomy and his heart was full of anger.
The eunuch behind him trotted along, holding an account book in his hand, and kept reporting to Ye Xinglan on the losses of the salt factory and sugar factory.
"Your Majesty, the salt factory and the sugar factory have stopped production at the same time, and one million people are unemployed at home. If we don't find a way to solve this problem as soon as possible, not only will we not be able to make money, it may even cause unrest!" said the eunuch anxiously.
Ye Xinglan had a blank expression on his face and cold eyes. When a young eunuch came over to help him change his shoes, he suddenly attacked and slapped the young eunuch hard on the head.
In an instant, the young eunuch turned into a cloud of blood mist, splattering on the ground. The maids and eunuchs around him were terrified and knelt on the ground, lowering their heads and not daring to say a word.
Ye Xinglan turned his head and asked coldly: "Without Liu Yuntian, will this huge salt factory and sugar factory be unable to produce salt and sugar? What's the point of me keeping you useless people?!"
The eunuch holding the account book turned pale when he heard this, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, trembling all over, not daring to reply. Seeing this, Eunuch Zhu on the side rolled his eyes, stepped forward and kicked the eunuch away, then walked to Ye Xinglan with an apologetic smile.
"Your Majesty, whether it is salt production or sugar production, Liu Yuntian is in charge of it, and he also does the most critical steps himself..."
Ye Xinglan roared to the sky, his voice was deafening, as if it was going to break through the sky: "Then what use is there for me to have this sugar factory and salt factory?!!!"
His face was terribly gloomy, his eyes revealed endless anger and disappointment. His hands were clenched tightly into fists, veins bulged, and his body was trembling slightly, as if he could explode at any time.
Then, Ye Xinglan suddenly stretched out his hand and lifted up Eunuch Zhu, as if he was lifting a chicken. Eunuch Zhu was so frightened that he trembled all over and dared not resist at all.
Ye Xinglan stared at Eunuch Zhu fiercely, anger flashing in his eyes, and asked through gritted teeth: "Where are the beast slaves and medicine slaves? How is the training going?" His voice was low and fierce, making people shudder.
Eunuch Zhu was trembling, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and the sweat slid down his cheeks. He stammered and replied, "I have been trained... I have come out."
After hearing the news, Ye Xinglan's mood eased a little. He let out a long sigh and then let Eunuch Zhu go.
However, at this moment, Eunuch Zhu's next words were like a sharp sword, which once again deeply hurt his heart.
"But...but the buyers are all contacted by Liu Yuntian alone, and after they are trained...where should they be sent, Your Majesty?" This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Ye Xinglan completely stunned.
He widened his eyes and looked at Eunuch Zhu in disbelief, his heart filled with despair and helplessness.
Ye Xinglan's body shook and he almost fell to the ground. He murmured to himself, "It's over... Everything is over..."
"Your Majesty!!! I am guilty!" Eunuch Zhu howled and threw himself at Ye Xinglan's feet.
At this moment, Ye Xinglan seemed to have lost all his strength. He sat on the ground like a deflated ball, his eyes empty and lifeless...
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something important and said anxiously: "Zhu Banban, go find the two brothers Qi Xing and Qi Sheng! The Qi family has followed Liu Yuntian for many years, so they must know something about salt and sugar making!"
However, Eunuch Zhu responded with a tearful voice: "Your Majesty!!! General Qi has already committed suicide in front of you. The two brothers of the Qi family and Liu Yuntian's fifteen trusted guards took the opportunity to escape. Even if we chase them back, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get them to cooperate!"
Eunuch Zhu's voice was full of despair and helplessness.
"boom!"
At this moment, the Zhongsheng Gate was blown up, and countless wood chips and nails flew everywhere. A beautiful woman appeared at the door. She walked slowly, and every step she took would move her several dozen meters forward.
After only ten steps, she had arrived in front of Ye Xinglan.
Ye Xinglan stared blankly at the woman in front of him. Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her eyes were like crystal grapes, her nose was small and straight, her lips were as red as cherries, and her skin was so white that it seemed as if it could be blown away.
A high ponytail and a leg-slit skirt made her look like a fairy from heaven.
Especially the white lace socks on her legs, which were faintly visible under the hem of her skirt, added a bit of mystery and seductive charm.
Ye Xinglan stared with his eyes wide open and swallowed subconsciously.
“There is an assassin!!!”
Suddenly, Eunuch Zhu shouted loudly in his hoarse voice.
This shout immediately broke the silence. The next moment, twenty soldiers from the Tianyuan Camp rode on Scarlet Flame Demon Wolves and rushed over. A large number of guards also rushed in from outside the gate and surrounded the entire palace.
The woman looked at Ye Xinglan, who was slumped on the ground, indifferently and asked in a cold tone, "Are you the Emperor of Daliang?"
Ye Xinglan was frightened, but nodded subconsciously.
The woman looked up at the surrounding guards and soldiers of the Tianyuan Camp, a scornful smile appeared on her lips, and she sneered: "Can these rabble protect you?"
"Where is he?"
Ye Xinglan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Eunuch Zhu and asked in confusion: "Who?"
The woman suppressed her anger and smiled, then raised her hand and clenched it. Ye Xinglan instantly floated in the air, his neck sunk deeply, and his whole face turned red.
The leader of Tianyuan Camp was the former royal consort Qu Wenwu. Seeing this, he no longer hesitated and led the Tianyuan Camp directly towards the woman.
"Protect His Majesty!!!"
However, the woman did not kill him. She simply waved her hand, and more than 20 soldiers from the Tianyuan Camp flew backwards instantly, and fell heavily to the ground with the Red Flame Demon Wolf under their crotch.
Fainted.
"I'll ask you one last time, where is he?"
Seeing that Ye Xinglan was about to suffocate, Eunuch Zhu knelt in front of the woman and kowtowed repeatedly, "Are you talking about Mr. Liu? He was teleported away with Ye Ling. The coordinates are completely random. We really don't know where he went!"
"Boom."
The force that was pinching Ye Xinglan dissipated instantly, and he fell to the ground from mid-air, breathing heavily.
"The fourth level of Nascent Soul?"
The woman sneered disdainfully, "Waste, do you think you will become him if you take his things?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman slowly became transparent until she disappeared from the spot. Eunuch Zhu rubbed his eyes violently, as if what had just happened was an illusion.
“A strong person in the God Transformation Stage?” Ye Xinglan murmured while panting.
"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Zhu crawled to Ye Xinglan's side and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, how are you?"
