Universe Storage Box

When they saw the old man stand up, the people who were kneeling down also stood up. However, during the process of standing up, there were quite a few people. Their bodies swayed and they almost fell down. Fortunately, the people beside them supported them in time. Otherwise, they might really have fallen to the ground.    

    

It was not because he had knelt for a long time that he could not stand stably. His legs were numb, but because they were just discussing how to overthrow Huang Feng. They had created a rebellion against Huang Feng, but in the end, they hadn't come up with a specific plan yet. They felt guilty that the main culprit had appeared.    

    

Huang Feng looked at the few people who were shaking with concern and said, "My dear subjects, are you feeling unwell? This matter is important, but the health is more important. Do you want me to give you a break and rest?"    

    

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. This lowly subject does not need it." The officials quickly said, "It's just that we drank a little too much at the cocktail party, so we were a little bit lacking in spirit."    

    

"Yes, yes, that's right"    

    

"So that's how it is. Those few beloved officials should drink less. They are not young anymore, so they should prioritize their health. If all of you fall ill, who will help me govern the country?" Huang Feng said.    

    

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Those few people, regardless of whether they were sincere or not, all showed expressions of gratitude. They bowed to Huang Feng and said that their acting skills were enough to surpass those in the entertainment industry by a few streets.    

    

Some people beside them were originally worried that Huang Feng might know what they were talking about just now. In the end, now that they heard what Huang Feng said, they felt relieved. At the same time, he felt slightly proud of himself. Indeed, these people were all important officials of the Imperial Court. Huang Feng needed their help to stabilize the country. Otherwise, it would not be possible to rely on Huang Feng alone.    

    

With this thought in mind, the worries in everyone's heart lessened. They unconsciously stood up straight, and there was a hint of arrogance on their faces. The way they looked at Huang Feng was no longer filled with fear and respect. Instead, there was some disdain in his eyes. Obviously, they thought that Huang Feng would not do anything to them. He even wanted to suck up to them.    

    

"Oh right, what were you guys talking about just now? I saw that you guys were chatting quite happily. Don't stop. Continue. I want to hear it too." Huang Feng looked at the crowd with a smile and said.    

    

Hearing Huang Feng's words, everyone's heart trembled. The old man standing next to Huang Feng... He tilted his head slightly and glanced at Huang Feng. He saw that there was no anger on Huang Feng's face. However, he had a smile on his face. He didn't know what Huang Feng meant. He really did not hear their conversation. He asked curiously. Or did he do it on purpose?    

    

The old man was a little unsure.    

    

When the people below saw that Huang Feng was still smiling, they relaxed even more. They felt that Huang Feng must have just arrived, and they didn't know what they were talking about. Just like what he had said, it was too boring in the Imperial Palace. Therefore, they came out for a walk and didn't know what they were talking about. Otherwise, he wouldn't be smiling right now... Instead, he would be furious.    

    

Since Huang Feng didn't know about their matter, there was nothing to be afraid of.    

    

"Your Majesty, we were just chatting casually and talking about some interesting things." An official who had more courage stood out and said.    

    

The old man standing next to Huang Feng was full of doubt. Because the matter that he had just discussed with these officials was a rebellion. They were going to wipe out the entire family, so he was very careful. The news would definitely not be known by outsiders, so he arranged a lot of guards outside. He just didn't want anyone to get close to him.    

    

In the end, Huang Feng came in without informing anyone. This was definitely unusual, even if Huang Feng was the Emperor. He could let those soldiers come in without notifying him. However, someone must have told him in advance. In the end, he didn't receive such a message. Instead, he waited for Huang Feng to appear in the hall. He had just found out that Huang Feng was here. This was why he couldn't figure out who Huang Feng was.    

    

"Grand Preceptor, Grand Preceptor? Zhen is asking you a question." At this moment, Huang Feng's voice was heard, interrupting the old man's thoughts.    

    

"Ah, Your Majesty, this lowly subject was distracted just now. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." The old man quickly said.    

    

"Oh, nothing much. It's just that Zhen is asking you what interesting things you were talking about just now. However, Zhen sees that you seem to have something on your mind." Huang Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man and said.    

    

Although Huang Feng's face did not have the slightest bit of anger, the old man still looked into Huang Feng's narrowed eyes. He saw a faint killing intent, which made his heart tremble. Initially, he thought that Huang Feng didn't know about their matter, but in the end... Now, it seemed like that wasn't the case.    

    

However, when he took a closer look at Huang Feng, he found that the killing intent was gone. He thought that he had seen wrongly.    

    

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. This lowly subject has nothing to worry about." The old man said. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, why didn't you inform us of your arrival? Those servants outside deserved to die. You actually didn't tell me so I could go and greet Your Majesty. "    

    

"I told them not to inform me. It's just a little road and I can walk by myself." Huang Feng said indifferently, as if the killing intent had never appeared on his body.    

    

"No matter what, it was all those people's dereliction of duty. I have to teach them a good lesson. Let them know their mistakes, and they won't make similar mistakes in the future. " The old man said. Then, he stood up and shouted loudly, "Someone come!"    

    

The old man had already made up his mind. He would call in the guards outside first. He would definitely teach them a lesson, but with those guards around... If Huang Feng really knew about their plan, he would have something to rely on. He wouldn't surrender without a fight. At that time, he wouldn't be able to resist at all.    

    

However, after he shouted, there wasn't any movement outside. It was as if there were no guards outside at all. However... He knew that he had arranged many guards outside. Usually, whenever he coughed, someone would come in. Why didn't anyone come in after he shouted today? Could it be that something happened?    

    

"Someone come in!" The old man shouted again. His tone was filled with anger and panic. "Where is the person outside? Come in!"    

    

However, even if he deliberately raised his voice, however, there was still no sound from outside. Furthermore, looking out from here, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen. That patch of black was like a man-eating beast, causing him to feel even more terrified.
