Chapter 562: Please invite Emperor Qing to ascend to heaven!
As the martial arts genius of the Ye family, Ye Wan was already a ninth-rank master when he was over thirty years old. With such a talent for martial arts, he could be ranked among the top ten masters in the entire Nanqing.

However, the gap between him and Su Mingzhe is still very large.

The difference between immortals and mortals.

No matter how he attacked, Su Mingzhe just used a move called "The Stars Are Shifting" to lightly bounce the palm force back.

The two fought for dozens of rounds.

In the end, Ye Wan used up all his energy and was unable to force Su Mingzhe to use his second move.

Ye Wan was so exhausted that he was out of breath. Seeing Su Mingzhe still calm and composed, he suddenly felt depressed:

"Brother Su, can't you try another trick?"

As a martial arts fanatic, Ye Wan would definitely want to have a good look at the wonderful martial arts when he met his opponent.

As a result, Su Mingzhe used this move over and over again. Ye Wan fought for a long time, but was completely defeated.

Su Mingzhe saw that Ye Wan had no more energy, so he stopped and said with a smile:
"Commander Ye, if you can crack this first move, I will naturally make the next move."

Seeing Su Mingzhe say this, Ye Wan knew that he was not someone who could not afford to lose, so he immediately bowed and said:

"Brother Su, I can't break your move. It seems that your martial arts are better than mine. Your strength of the ninth rank is well deserved. Brother Su will definitely be the top of the list in this martial arts exam! I, Ye, would like to congratulate you in advance."

"Thank you, Commander Ye, for your kind words."

Su Mingzhe said a few polite words, took a jade waist badge symbolizing the ninth rank of strength from Ye Wan, and immediately said goodbye and left.

Ye Wan watched Su Mingzhe leave, then turned to the people watching the battle not far away and said self-deprecatingly:

"Eunuch Hong, you have seen what happened just now. It's not that I didn't try my best. It's just that Brother Su is so powerful that he is far superior to me. Please say a few good words for me when you report back."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Among the crowd watching the game, a young man in a blue robe and white face cupped his hands and smiled faintly:

"Commander Ye, although we have to report this matter, we would also like to trouble you to write a memorial. Otherwise, we are afraid that our ancestors will not believe it."

"Natural, natural."

Ye Wan and the young eunuch Hong wrote down the details of the battle and submitted it to the palace.

After Su Mingzhe got the certificate, he did not wander around and went straight back to his residence.

That evening, Ada, who acted as the doorman, received more than a dozen invitations and visiting cards.

After Su Mingzhe received the call, he asked Xiaoxue to write down all the names, and then asked A Da to reject all of them, with the reason being that he was preparing for the martial arts examination.

"Prince Jing, the Second Prince, the Crown Prince, Prime Minister Lin... they are all famous people. Ye Wan, Xu Qing, Yang Yanzhao... they are all great generals."

After looking at the signatures on more than a dozen invitations and visiting cards, Su Mingzhe was speechless:
"I just competed with Ye Wan this morning, and so many people already know of my existence in the afternoon. I don't know how Ye Wan manages his subordinates. His office can't even be called a 'sieve', it's simply a 'fishing net with holes in it', anyone can be stuffed in."

After complaining about Ye Wan, Su Mingzhe did not take these invitations and visiting cards seriously.

The next day, he took his four beautiful maids and started wandering around, looking like a complete "country bumpkin coming to the city". Everything he saw that was delicious, beautiful, or fun he bought home.

After hearing the report, the various people who had been monitoring him thought for a while and then stopped their efforts and ignored him.

For several consecutive days, Su Mingzhe took his beautiful maid out for fun.

Today, we entered August.

Emperor Qing issued an edict to clarify the time for the military examination.

Normally, when news of this kind was received, the government would just post a notice at the gate of the government office and the gate of the parade ground and that would be the end of it.

However, after Ye Wan received the imperial decree, he went to the Su Mansion in person to inform Su Mingzhe after finishing his shift.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, Commander Ye. However, I'm afraid I can't participate in this martial arts examination."

Su Mingzhe's eyes were bright. He reached out and took out a black iron waist badge from his arms. He shook it gently and said with a smile:

"Commander Ye, I'm sure you recognize this badge, right?"

When Ye Wan saw the badge, he was immediately shocked:
"Brother Su, this is... the badge of the Internal Supervisor Office? No... this is the badge of the Iron Guard. Brother Su, why did you choose to join the Iron Guard?"

The Internal Supervision Office was originally an institution for managing eunuchs.

The Iron Guard, which is under the jurisdiction of the Internal Affairs Bureau, has always been unpopular.

But now the chief eunuch of the Internal Affairs Department is the legendary "Grand Master" Hong Sixiang.

With Hong Sixiang in charge, the eunuchs in Qing Kingdom are second only to the Inspection Office in terms of power. They are the kind of people that everyone fears and is terrified to talk about.

Ever since the Internal Affairs Office was taken over by Hong Sixiang, the 'Iron Guards' under his command have been recruiting heroes from all over the world to secretly carry out tasks for the Emperor and Hong Sixiang.

In this world, the reputation of the 'Iron Guards' is roughly equivalent to that of the 'Blood Dropper' during the Yongzheng period.

In the TV series, Emperor Qing hired someone to assassinate Mei Zhili's family, and he asked the heroes under the Iron Guard to carry out the task.

Ye Wan had never expected that Su Mingzhe would actually join such a 'notorious' assassination organization.

"Commander Ye, why did I join the Iron Guard and seek refuge with the Internal Affairs Bureau? Can't you guess?"

Su Mingzhe was speechless when he saw Ye Wan's expression of being completely unpredictable and unexpected.

"As a martial artist, one should aim to become a Grandmaster. In our Daqing Kingdom, there are only two Grandmasters, namely Eunuch Hong and Senior Ye Liuyun. Your Ye family's martial arts are not passed on to outsiders. If I don't look for Eunuch Hong, who do you think I should look for?"

"Not really, not really."

Ye Wan really didn't expect that Su Mingzhe would defect to the Iron Guard.

As mentioned before, he is a martial arts fanatic who is obsessed with fighting and doesn't understand much about human nature.

Su Mingzhe felt amused and touched when he saw how dejected he looked.

The only thing they were dating was the fight they had a few days ago.

As a result, he did not expect that his joining the Internal Supervisory Office would make him so devastated. However, since Ye Wan had such an attitude towards the Internal Supervisory Office and the Iron Guard, Su Mingzhe could only serve tea and send him off.

After Ye Wan left, Su Mingzhe called Ah Da in, threw his badge and official robe to him, and told him: "When you go to the Iron Guard in the future, if you have any actions, report to me or Xiao Ye in advance..."

"Understood, Master."

Ada untied his cloak, his eyes flashed green, and then his face began to twist.

After a while, under the watchful eyes of Su Mingzhe and four maids, A Da changed into Su Mingzhe's appearance, took the waist badge and official robe, put them on and went out.

"Sir, A-Da is taking your place at work, where are you going?"

Xiao Ye is a straight girl majoring in science and engineering. Seeing her son letting A Da go out in her place, she was a little confused about what Su Mingzhe meant.

Su Mingzhe had gone through so much trouble before, it couldn't be that it was just to let Ah Da become the "boss" of the Iron Guard, right?

"Where am I going? Of course I'm going to be the most noble person in the world!"

As Su Mingzhe spoke, he laughed and his expression changed.

As Su Mingzhe's appearance changed, the maid Xiaocao beside him opened her eyes wide and opened her cherry mouth in surprise, saying:

"This is... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Xiaocao was once a maid in the Nanqing Palace. She died of illness a few years ago and was taken away by Su Mingzhe. Before she left the palace, she was familiar with most of the nobles in the palace.

Therefore, Xiaocao recognized the person Su Mingzhe had transformed into at a glance. He was none other than Li Chengqian, the Prince of Nanqing.

"A'er, A'san, the two of you come with me to the palace."

Su Mingzhe, Er'er and San all changed into night clothes, used flying armor directly, and arrived above the palace.

Today is the beginning of the month, the new moon has not yet risen, and the sky is full of stars.

The three of them first went to the East Palace and kidnapped the real crown prince Li Chengqian.

Then, amid shouts of "Catch the assassin", the three of them brought Li Chengqian and landed in the bedroom of Weiyang Palace where Emperor Qing lived.

The sudden appearance of the four people surprised Emperor Qing so much that he almost drew his sword and stabbed them.

Fortunately, Su Mingzhe lifted the hat in time, revealing the familiar face.

When Emperor Qing saw that one of the visitors was his son, and the most cowardly prince, he put away the "domineering energy" that was about to explode and asked:
"Prince? How dare you bring people straight into the imperial study?"

"Emperor Qing, you've got the wrong person. This is your son."

Su Mingzhe followed the principle of saving trouble wherever possible and directly asked Ah Er to push the real prince out.

Emperor Qing looked at Su Mingzhe, then at Li Chengqian who had fainted. He was stunned by the two identical "sons":

"So, who are you?"

Seeing that Emperor Qing did not shout or scream at this point, Su Mingzhe began to admire him:
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I would like to ask you for a favor and pass the throne of emperor to the crown prince."

"What do you mean by passing the throne to the prince? I see, it's passing it to you, right?"

Emperor Qing was not a fool. When he saw that Su Mingzhe looked exactly like the prince, he immediately understood Su Mingzhe's plan.

"Forget it, I won't waste any more time talking to you. Hurry up and call the guards outside."

Su Mingzhe was too lazy to say more to Emperor Qing. He waved his hand, signaling Ah San to take the real prince away.

When Emperor Qing saw his son being taken away, he shouted, "Come here, there are assassins holding the prince hostage!"

Gong Dian, the deputy commander of the guards outside the gate, heard the emperor shouting inside the hall and hurriedly led his men into the hall.

However, no matter how fast Gong Dian was, he could not be faster than the submachine gun in Er's hand.

Da da da--

A'er had already received Su Mingzhe's order. When he saw Gong Dian and others breaking into the bedroom, he directly pulled out the submachine gun he had prepared and shot at Emperor Qing.

When Emperor Qing saw the pitch-black muzzle of the gun, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that more than ten years ago, Ye Qingmei and Wu Zhu used a similar hidden weapon to kill his two uncles, and finally his father ascended the throne and became emperor.

Now, when Ah Er took out the submachine gun, Emperor Qing immediately felt a great terror coming and subconsciously wanted to dodge.

However, no matter how fast Emperor Qing was, he could not be faster than the bullets fired from a submachine gun.

The magazine capacity of an AK47 is thirty rounds.

Ah Er hit out half of it in one breath, directly breaking Emperor Qing's chest, arms and head.

Emperor Qing had never expected that he would die so miserably.

Gong Dian rushed in with his guards, and was so frightened when he saw Ah Er killing Emperor Qing with a submachine gun.

"His Majesty was assassinated and died——"

"Father——"

Su Mingzhe's acting skills came into play at this time. He rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground.

At this time, a large number of guards had begun to surround the bedroom. While Ah Er was shooting at Gong Dian and the guards who rushed in with a submachine gun, he rushed out holding Su Mingzhe hostage.

After killing several guards with the remaining dozen or so bullets, even Gong Dian was hit several times, but fortunately he was not hit in vital areas.

Gong Dian faced the gun and rushed in front of A'er. He risked his life to be hit by A'er's palm and saved Su Mingzhe who was being held hostage by A'er in his chest.

A'er still wanted to take Su Mingzhe as a hostage, but the commander of the imperial guard, Yan Xiaoyi, had already arrived.

Yan Xiaoyi was a ninth-rank archery expert. Although he hadn't arrived in person, he had shot an arrow that had arrived, heading straight for the hand that Ah Er had stretched out.

Seeing that the opportunity had come, Ah Er snorted coldly, but withdrew and fled towards the harem.
