Chapter 71: Li Changqing and Wei Nan have a grudge? Recruiting Xu Chu to serve the senior sister
"This"
This question from the King of Wu.
The housekeeper was immediately stumped. He didn't know what Li Changqing meant.
It should be the Jinyiwei of Xingqing Prefecture.
It is understandable that he was venting his anger out of shame after his crime was exposed.
But this Wei Nan, the Right Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate?
What reason did Li Changqing have to kill him?
"Your Majesty."
"Could it be that Wei Nan and Li Changqing have some unknown grudge?" The housekeeper thought for a long time before he came up with this possibility.
This answer.
The King of Wu was not satisfied.
He said coldly: "This king will also give you three days to investigate this matter thoroughly."
Say it.
The King of Wu simply turned away.
This incident caused him a lot of trouble and made him a spy in the court.
Most of it was lost in an instant.
The destruction of the Jinyiwei also weakened his control over Xingqing Prefecture.
No need to doubt.
It won't be long.
The empress will order a new batch of Jinyiwei to come to Xingqing Mansion to guard it.
It's even possible.
Just let the two little girls from Qingyuan Sword Sect guard here.
"Damn it."
The thought of this.
The King of Wu cursed inwardly again and left the palace with a gloomy face.
______
Simultaneously.
The government office of Xingqing Prefecture was overcrowded with people.
All the members of the Censorate and the Embroidered Uniform Guard are there.
The yard was filled with corpses.
One of them.
It was Wei Nan, the Right Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate, and the others were the Jinyiwei of Xingqing Prefecture.
"Your Excellencies."
Fan Pingchuan, the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate, looked at Ruan Surong and her two daughters with an unpleasant expression.
He said in a deep voice: "For this matter, do you Jinyiwei have to give me an explanation for the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"
"Explain?"
Ling Yan'er said in a slightly cold tone, "Last night, more than 300 members of my Jinyiwei died. What explanation do you want me, the Jinyiwei, to give to your Metropolitan Procuratorate?"
Fan Pingchuan's eyes darkened.
He said angrily, "This incident was caused by a traitor in your Jinyiwei, which led to the murder of the Right Censor of the Censorate. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
"Ah"
Ling Yaner sneered.
Just about to open his mouth to make a sarcastic remark.
However, Ruan Surong stopped him and said, "Your Majesty has made his own decision on this matter. It is not your turn, Lord Fan, to bring charges against my Jinyiwei."
Without waiting for Fan Pingchuan to speak.
Ruan Surong added: "Also, the most important thing right now is to find out the truth about the disaster relief grain being robbed, and where the disaster relief grain is. Does Lord Fan really want to argue with us at this time?"
"Humph!"
Fan Pingchuan snorted coldly and blew his beard.
But he didn't say anything else.
Instead, he left a cold message and led his men out of the prefecture: "A second-rank official died because of you, the Jinyiwei. You, the Jinyiwei, cannot escape responsibility for this matter."
What Fan Pingchuan said is indeed correct.
Left and Right Censors of the Censorate.
They are all second-rank officials with high positions and power.
If it weren’t in Xingqing Prefecture.
If it's Ruan Surong, if it's Ling Yan'er, then no matter who is here, they will be implicated.
But obviously.
There is no way the empress would hold them accountable.
Moreover, the empress already knew the truth of the matter, so it was impossible for her to punish him.
After the people from the Censorate left.
Ruan Surong glanced at the 301 corpses wrapped in white cloth placed in the yard.
He frowned and said, "Master Zhang, please bury the person."
Zhang Rang, the governor of Xingqing Prefecture, was slightly startled when he heard this.
Somewhat surprised, he asked, "Just bury it like this?"
Ruan Surong didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
See this.
Zhang Rang hesitated for a moment, then looked at Wei Nan's body and asked, "What about Lord Wei Nan's body?"
"Buried together."
Ling Yan'er sneered, "If you are not afraid of leaving a dead body behind and attracting Li Changqing, then it's fine to leave it behind. It can be used as bait so that we can arrest him."
As soon as these words came out.
Zhang Rang's expression suddenly changed.
He quickly said, "Then listen to your advice and bury the body together."
talking.
Zhang Rang was afraid that the two girls would use him as bait to lure Li Changqing back, so he quickly called for people to come over, "Quick, quick, take all these bodies and bury them."
It's just a corpse.
If I keep it for myself, that guy might come back and destroy the body.
But Zhang Rang didn't dare to gamble.
What if Li Changqing and Wei Nan have some deep hatred?
After all, they were killed for no reason, it's hard not to be suspicious.
"Junior sister, let's go."
Looking at Zhang Rang's expression, he seemed to be afraid of being implicated.
Ruan Surong raised her eyebrows and left the government office with a group of Jinyiwei and Ling Yan'er.
After leaving the government office.
Ruan Surong glanced at the Jinyiwei behind her.
He ordered in a cold voice: "You go down first and continue to investigate the matter of disaster relief grain."
"Here."
After the Jinyiwei left.
Ling Yaner blinked and asked, "Senior Sister, where are we going next?"
"Next?"
Ruan Surong thought for a moment.
He raised his eyes slightly, looked at the Xingqing Prefecture military camp from afar and said, "Next, let's go visit him."
"Senior sister, are you talking about Xu Chu under the command of King Zhenbei?" Ling Yan'er nodded thoughtfully.
"Yes."
Ruan Surong said, "Didn't the news sent by Senior Sister say that Li Changqing is one of the sixteen captains of the Black Ice Platform? What happened last night was the plan of that person in the North Territory. So you and I don't need to spend too much effort on capturing Li Changqing."
"Since we have time to catch him, we might as well take advantage of this time to contact that person and see if we can win him over to work for our senior sister." After saying this, Ruan Surong couldn't help but shook her head slightly, not holding out any hope for this.
"One of the sixteen captains of the Black Ice Platform."
Ling Yan'er thought back to last night, when she and her senior sister worked together.
It was a scene where even the corner of his clothes could not be touched, and his eyes once again showed it.
A trace of shock appeared on his face, and he murmured, "Everyone in the world says that among the sixteen captains of the Black Ice Platform, everyone is Zhi Xuan, who is invincible at the same level. Killing Zhi Xuan is as easy as slaughtering a chicken or a dog. Junior sister didn't believe it before, but after what happened last night, she had to believe it."
"It's really strong."
Ruan Surong nodded and said, "This person is not inferior to Second Senior Sister. Even Second Senior Sister may not be able to win. The rumors about the strength of the Sixteenth Captain of the Black Ice Platform are true."
The two girls said.
Soon they arrived at the military camp.
here.
It was originally the place where the garrison of Xingqing Prefecture was stationed.
However, after learning that the Xianzhen Camp was coming, the governor of Xingqing Prefecture transferred the garrison away.
Went somewhere else.
The military camp in the city was vacated and used by the Xianzhen Camp to station troops there.
This is also what the King of Wu meant.
After all, the Xianzhen Camp is the most elite force in the world.
Who in the world doesn’t admire him?
If the soldiers under his command were allowed to stay with him for a long time, there is a chance that they would defect to the enemy.
"He who comes is stopped."
Just before the two girls arrived at the military camp.
Then a stern voice came: "The front is an important military camp, all outsiders leave immediately."
"Ruan Surong, the commander of the Royal Guards."
"Ling Yan'er."
"Requesting to see General Xu Chu, please inform him." The two women who were stopped immediately took out the tokens from their waists and bowed to the soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp who were blocking their way.
