I, Chu Xinghe, Have My Own Hype Man Too!

Chu Xinghe did not choose to let Ma Liang arrange for someone to investigate!

What are you investigating?

What is the purpose of this investigation? It is to gather evidence and to uncover the truth!

But Chu Xinghe questioned whether he needed to do that; he simply swept away all the obstacles with a single move!

Once all the demons and monsters have been crushed, the truth will naturally become clear!

Regardless of the truth behind this incident, the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce in the Great Liang Kingdom is definitely problematic from top to bottom!

After a sleepless night, the entire court of the Great Liang Kingdom was filled with the Great Liang Kingdom officials early the next morning.

Yue Ling returned to the capital yesterday, and the news spread throughout the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom. Countless nobles of the Great Liang Kingdom sought an audience with her late at night, but were all turned away by Xu Wannian.

Instead, she informed all civil and military officials that Princess Zhao Yue Ling would personally preside over the court assembly today!

In the imperial court, the civil and military officials of the Great Liang Kingdom stood on both sides, and at the very front of them was an elderly man with white hair. Although he looked quite old, he exuded a terrifying aura of power...

This is Wei Wuji, the Grand Preceptor of the Great Liang Kingdom. Wei Wuji exudes a terrifying aura, which represents the aura of Peak of the Ninth Rank Martial Emperor!

"The princess has arrived..."

With this announcement, Zhao Yue Ling, now dressed in a princess gown, walked into the main hall under the watchful eyes of the civil and military officials!

"Greetings, Princess..." All the civil and military officials knelt and bowed, but Wei Wuji was the only one who simply clasped his hands slightly.

Ninth Rank Martial Emperor —let alone meeting a princess, even the ruler of the Great Liang Kingdom would never allow such a powerful figure to pay homage.

"Please rise, everyone..."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

After all the civil and military officials rose, Wei Wuji was the first to speak, "I heard that Yue Ling returned to the capital safely yesterday. It is truly a blessing for our Great Liang Kingdom!"

"A blessing for our Great Liang Kingdom!"

All the civil and military officials seemed to be Wei Wuji 'Wei Wuji straight man, echoing his every word.

"Thank you for your concern, Grand Preceptor. There were a few clowns along the way, but none of them were capable of accomplishing anything." Although Yue Ling was filled with anger, her face remained calm.

"It would be wonderful if Yue Ling could return to the capital to take charge of the overall situation," Wei Wuji, stroking his beard.

As soon as Wei Wuji finished speaking, Xu Wannian chimed in, "The Imperial Advisor is right. The princess is the only remaining member of the royal family in our Great Liang Kingdom. Her return is truly a blessing for our Great Liang Kingdom. Now that she is back to take charge, we will all follow her lead. The Imperial Advisor no longer needs to toil day and night for the country as before!"

Xu Wannian said this, no one in the entire court spoke.

"Little Xu, you are serving the country and the people, how can you talk about hard work?" A murderous intent flashed in Wei Wuji's eyes as he looked at Xu Wannian. A terrifying pressure surged out instantly. Although Xu Wannian was Eighth Rank expert, he was almost forced to his knees by such pressure!

The Peak of the Ninth Rank is terrifying!

Xu Wannian was suppressed by Wei Wuji and could not even speak. He could only glare at Wei Wuji.

Wei Wuji smiled slightly, turned to look at Yue Ling, and said again, "Yue Ling, it's truly not easy for you to return this time. I wonder what you've been through on your journey?"

Wei Wuji spoke as if it were a casual chat, waving his hand to the palace servants beside him. The next moment, a servant with a fawning expression brought Wei Wuji a chair.

Wei Wuji sat down with a smile on his face.

"Thanks to the Imperial Preceptor's concern, although we encountered some petty villains along the way, they were nothing to worry about. However, I must thank my two friends for our safe arrival, and they happen to be here now..."

Yue Ling waved her hand, and the next moment Chu Xinghe and Ma Liang walked into the main hall.

The moment the two entered the hall, the entire hall erupted in commotion!

"This... Master Ma Liang?"

"This... this really seems to be Lord Ma Liang..."

"Is Your Highness's friend Lord Ma Liang?"

"How could that be...? It must be that the actor playing Ma Liang just looks too much like him..."

Many court officials were discussing the matter animatedly. Not only the officials, but even Wei Wuji was shocked... However, Wei Wuji quickly calmed down.

Because the adults behind the scenes had previously stated that this Ma Liang was likely an actor playing a role, not the real Ma Liang.

Even knowing this beforehand, Wei Wuji was still somewhat astonished by Ma Liang's appearance, because it was truly, truly alike.

Just as countless people were marveling at this, Ma Liang, who had walked to the center of the hall, spoke up, "Let me introduce myself, Ma Liang from the Vast Heaven Holy Land. Greetings, everyone!"

As Ma Liang spoke, he slightly clasped his hands in a fist salute to the court officials around him.

But upon hearing Ma Liang's self-introduction, countless people in the hall instantly scoffed!

"Heh... It's fine for a child to play Ma Liang, but to dare to call himself Ma Liang of the Vast Heaven Holy Land in such a setting, do you know what the crime of impersonating Ma Liang is!"

"And Ma Liang from the Vast Heaven Holy Land... You wouldn't be saying the person next to you is Chu Xinghe from the Vast Heaven Holy Land, would you?!"

As soon as one of Wei Wuji's lackeys finished speaking, Chu Xinghe also spoke up, "You're absolutely right. I am Chu Xinghe from the Vast Heaven Holy Land! I've been hired by Miss Yue Ling for five spirit stones to escort her back to the Yue Ling Great Liang Kingdom."

"You bastard! How dare you impersonate Chu Xinghe!"

"This is outrageous... He must have ruined his brain playing Chu Xinghe so well..."

"This is utterly outrageous! Princess, please order these two to be killed immediately! They are impersonating people from the Vast Heaven Holy Land, and they are bringing annihilation upon our Great Liang Kingdom!"

The group of court officials were all talking at once, leaving not only the officials bewildered, but even Yue Ling was completely confused...

Wait a minute... what's going on with you two? Why is this different from what we said before?

How dare you two openly impersonate others... If this gets out, you'll be in big trouble!

"Um... well... you two are... are..." Yue Ling was at a loss for what to do.

After all, the agreement today was for Ma Liang and Chu Xinghe to make an appearance in the imperial court. If they could fool people, then they would have succeeded; if not, then so be it.

But Yue Ling hadn't expected that the two of them would immediately identify themselves as Ma Liang and Chu Xinghe of the Vast Heaven Holy Land. Wasn't that a bit too absurd?

Yue Ling knew that Chu Xinghe of the Vast Heaven Holy Land once said that the Vast Heaven Holy Land should have a broad mind and a heart that can embrace all things under heaven.

Therefore, no matter how many imitators of Chu Xinghe there are outside, as long as they don't act recklessly, Vast Heaven Holy Land has never interfered.

As Chu Xinghe once said, if life weren't so difficult, who would be willing to imitate others?

Many of those who imitate Chu Xinghe are actually struggling to make a living and want to rely on this to support their families.

They finally found this path, and they're just imitating me Chu Xinghe, being hired to perform a few acts to earn a little money to buy their kids new clothes and their wives some cosmetics. Is it really necessary to take them so seriously?

Therefore, the Vast Heaven Holy Land never interferes with imitators of Chu Xinghe, but the premise is that you can imitate but you cannot impersonate him!

To make the imitation more realistic, you can call yourself Chu Xinghe during the performance...

However, in any formal setting, an imitator would never dare to claim to be Chu Xinghe of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, because that would no longer be imitation, but rather impersonation!

Today, this is the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom. This is not the stage of the Great Liang Kingdom; this place is definitely a formal occasion.

In this situation, what is it if someone claims to be Chu Xinghe of the Vast Heaven Holy Land? Isn't that impersonation?

If the Vast Heaven Holy Land were to find out about this, it would be a capital offense!

So Yue Ling panicked... I told you two to imitate, not to impersonate!

"Haha... Yue Ling, your two friends are truly arrogant beyond belief... Ma Liang of the Vast Heaven Holy Land... Chu Xinghe of the Vast Heaven Holy Land? Haha... In all my years, this is the first time I've ever seen such audacious people!"

Wei Wuji sat there and burst into loud, wild laughter.

As soon as Wei Wuji spoke, the entire court erupted in a barrage of criticism against Chu Xinghe and Ma Liang... The scene seemed to be spiraling out of control.

But at this moment, Chu Xinghe spoke up, "This must be that Imperial Advisor, right? We two can't match your boldness. I've heard that facing the overwhelming army of the Great Chang Kingdom, the Imperial Advisor hasn't sent a single soldier out, allowing the Great Chang Kingdom to attack and annihilate thirteen cities of the Great Liang Kingdom. While we may be bold, we're not bold enough to betray our country!"

Hearing Chu Xinghe's words, Wei Wuji's eyes flashed with anger, but he quickly regained his composure. In his view, these two were already dead, and there was no need to bother with them. Someone would find out about today's news through various channels, and the Vast Heaven Holy Land would not let these two go.

"Grand Preceptor... you held military and political power before because the Great Liang Kingdom had no one in charge. Now that Yue Ling has returned, shouldn't you return these powers to her? You're getting on in years, wouldn't it be better to go back and enjoy your grandchildren? Why do you have to do this?"

Hearing Chu Xinghe's words, Wei Wuji smiled slightly and then said, "This young brat can't even protect himself, yet he dares to stir up trouble here? I have dedicated my life to the country and its people; who in the Great Liang Kingdom doesn't know that!"

When Wei Wuji spoke of "who doesn't know," he suddenly raised his voice, and in an instant, all the court officials shouted in unison, "The Imperial Preceptor serves the country and its people; everyone knows him!"

Goodness, that straight man is amazing!

Wei Wuji: "Hehe... My control of military and political power is only a temporary measure. Yue Ling is still young; can she really keep her in check? So I'm only temporarily in charge. As for the claim that I have rebellious intentions, hehe... My innocence is as clear as day and night. I swear to heaven, how could I be the kind of person to disrupt the court!"

"The Imperial Advisor serves the country and its people; the sun and moon bear witness!" the many supporting comedians exclaimed in unison.

Chu Xinghe: "Imperial Preceptor, don't make oaths lightly. Talking nonsense will get you struck by lightning!"

The instant Chu Xinghe finished speaking, a deafening roar was heard, and the next moment a bolt of purple lightning shattered the roof of the court and descended from the sky!

A terrifying bolt of lightning struck Wei Wuji's head in an instant. Before Wei Wuji could even put up any resistance, he was instantly reduced to ashes by the purple lightning!

This sudden change plunged the entire court into a deathly silence.

Just then, Chu Xinghe spoke casually, "Oh, Imperial Advisor Wei something..."

Ma Liang: "Wei Wuji!"

Chu Xinghe: "With that awful name, his parents must have had no good hopes for him!"

Ma Liang: "It's also possible that the child is unfortunate, born with a defect!"

Chu Xinghe: "Who cares if it's a congenital condition or a lack of hope... The name doesn't matter anymore. But you see, I told you you shouldn't make oaths lightly, but you wouldn't listen! Now you've been struck by lightning!"

Ma Liang: "Sigh... Senior Brother Xinghe is always so kind and righteous, it's a pity he won't listen... Senior Brother Xinghe tried your best! He insisted on seeking death, you couldn't stop him at all!"

Chu Xinghe was in charge of opening the conversation, and Ma Liang was in charge of providing the straight man. Chu Xinghe was thinking, "You're the only one, Wei Wuji, who has a straight man...?"

Look! I, Chu Xinghe, have my own straight man!
