Chapter 238: Royal proclamation being sent
“Reporting to elder sister!”Meng Yingying returned to the headquarters, “I have delivered the items according to your orders and they were very happy!But I’m a little curious about something.Since you’re sending pills and Magnetic Recording Machines to help their cultivation, why not just directly give them funding?It seems like they are quite short on money.”
Meng Qingwu shook her head, “Yingying, you have to understand that everything has its limits.”
Meng Yingying did not understand this.Since they were helping others, they should see it through to the end.With Miracle Commerce’s current strength, they could easily give away two-three million!
As Meng Qingwu was about to explain it to her.
“Elder sister Qingwu!”Feng Caidie anxiously ran in, “I have some news.My father is already back and there is an extra Imperial City Envoy.They might have been sent here to investigate the chaos in Central State!”
What?
The Imperial City sent someone over!
The two sisters couldn’t help but feel nervous!
“What status does the Imperial City Envoy have?”
“I don’t know either.”
Meng Qingwu was worried that the person sent from the Imperial City was from the Shangguan Family.Chu Tian had offended the Shangguan Family already.It was fine if he had only crippled an elder, but in Thunder State, he had injured the Western Marquis’ successor.The Western Marquis was an important branch family for the Shangguan Family!
It definitely could not be someone from the Shangguan Family!
Otherwise it would be unknown how the situation would develop.
Meng Qingwu did not dare show neglect.She sent Meng Yingying to the Yun Sect to forcefully bring Chu Tian back.
When Chu Tian learned that the Imperial City’s Envoy came, he slightly knit his brows.Central State already belonged to Miracle Commerce and Miracle Commerce had the citizen’s support.If Imperial City wanted to force Miracle Commerce out, it would be a very hard thing to do.
“The Divine Wind Marquis is here!”
“The Imperial City’s Envoy Nangong Zhi is here!”
A scholarly middle aged man in a blue robe came in with a middle aged man in a scarlet red armour.
The Nangong Family’s envoy?
Feng Caidie revealed a look of joy!
Chu Tian, Meng Qingwu, and Meng Yingying were all guest officials of the Nangong Family.
Nangong Yun was a genius of the Nangong Family.Since she was from the Nangong Family, this should make things easier.
Chu Tian and Meng Qingwu revealed serious expressions because they clearly knew that the Nangong Family was not unified.Otherwise, how could Nangong Yun with her innate talent and power not receive focused training?It didn’t matter if she didn’t receive focus training, but the two of them were even sent off to the distant South Sky City.It was clear that they were trying to ostracize this father and daughter duo.
The Nangong Family’s guest official status was also given after Nangong Yi became an elder, this meant it didn’t have a lot of weight and was not easy to use.
“Who is Chu Tian?”Nangong Zhi swaggered in, “Stand up now!”
This tone was very unfriendly.
Chu Tian revealed a frown.He was not clear on the situation and did not want to offend the Nangong Family for no reason.He cupped his hands and put on an act, “This one is Chu Tian.I greet the special envoy!”
“Bold Chu Tian!”Nangong Zhi’s eyes turned sharp, “Causing a large stir in Central State and exterminating the three great clans, causing tens of thousands of casualties, creating a river of blood, and disrupting the nation.What is even more unforgivable is the fact that your soldiers surrounded the mayor’s palace and treated the mayor like nothing.Having such a swollen head, your crime is unforgivable!”
Chu Tian gave a cold laugh, “Then how will the kingdom handle me?”
Nangong Zhi said with a snort, “Bring out the royal proclamation!”
An official respectfully opened a purple gold box and took out a gold glowing scroll from inside.It was even more beautiful than the Calm Martial Ruler’s orders.
Nangong Zhi loudly shouted, “With the royal proclamation present, why haven’t you kneeled yet?!”
Chu Tian continued standing there.Fuck, father doesn’t even kneel for a demon god, why would I kneel for a tiny Southern Summer King?!
A single Calm Martial Ruler’s orders would be enough to eliminate a person’s family.
Now with a royal proclamation present, if they offended the king, the consequences would be even more severe.
“Envoy Nangong.”The Divine Wind Marquis knew Chu Tian’s temperament, “Chu Tian is a well known scholar of Central State with knowledge even above Yun Tianhe’s.According to country’s laws, a renowned scholar does not need to kneel in front of the king.”
“Scholar?What a joke, even he can be considered a scholar!”Nangong Zhi broke out in laughter, “Alright, since the Divine Wind Marquis has spoken out for you, I can overlook your crime against the king!”
Nangong Zhi did not place Chu Tian in his eyes at all, “Read the royal proclamation!”
“The chaos in Central State has caused tens of thousands of casualties and rivers of blood to flow, shocking Southern Summer, creating a rare turmoil that has appeared for the first time in a hundred years.Central State’s Chu Tian has brought rebels from the Four States Lake into the city, participating in the family struggles, imprisoned the mayor, privately used the Storm Cavalry, and not reporting to the Imperial City before taking all of the possessions of the three great families.All these actions have violated the laws of the Southern Summer Country and deserves to be heavily punished……”
The Meng sisters’ expressions turned ugly.
There must have been people who testified in the Imperial City and they must have distorted the facts.They did not talk about the cause and effect, they just wanted to lure Chu Tian into a death trap!
“However, Chu Tian has extinguished the demon of Thunder State, saving the citizens of Thunder State, performing a great merit!This merit will be temporarily put aside while special envoy Nangong Zhi will investigate the truth of the matter behind the chaos of Central State, before giving out punishment and rewards.Central State must cooperate with this investigation!”
The royal proclamation ended there.
The Divine Wind Marquis and the Golden Arrow Marquis were in Imperial City at the time, so when the news reached the Imperial City, they spoke up for Chu Tian and that was why the Southern Summer King made a decision to not punish or reward Chu Tian.
From the royal proclamation, everything depended on the investigation.
Whether he was rewarded or punished all depended on the Imperial City Envoy, Nangong Zhi!
The Divine Wind Marquis said to Nangong Zhi, “Sir Envoy must be tired after travelling so far, so this marquis will personally arrange a banquet to help sir Envoy wash off his fatigue.This investigation is not an anxious matter anyway.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble the marquis!”
