Dafeng's Night Squad

Chapter 177

177 A thousand-mile dam is destroyed by an ant nest (1)

Xu Qi ‘an was shocked. When did I lie? If one really wanted to talk about deception, then that would be the Yun Lu Academy’s setup.

Could it be that my character had unknowingly collapsed? that didn’t make sense. Besides, it shouldn’t be number five who said that. It would be reasonable if number one or six criticized him. It was not a girl far away in the southern border’s place to speak.

He held the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld in his hand and muttered to himself, but did not reply. The other members of the Heaven and Earth Society also did not speak, quietly watching the development of the situation.

Number three is a liar? He was the one who picked up the silver. How did number five know about this? they didn’t have much communication in the process of sending the letter. In other words, number five found a flaw in number three from a certain statement in the past. No, if there was any flaw, it would be noticed by others, not number five ... That was what number four thought.

Number three had a good temperament and was a warm-hearted person. Everyone had their own secrets, but number five was really a stupid woman ... Number two thought.

Number three kept picking up silver, picking up silver ... Monk Hengyuan didn’t know what expression to make.

Number one laughed and didn’t say anything, silently peeking at the screen.

At this moment, Golden Lotus was lazily lying on the roof of the house, basking in the sun with his cat eyes closed comfortably.

Number five didn’t let them wait for too long. She criticized number three for being insincere, “[ the friend you’re talking about who often picks up money is you, right? ‘I asked ...’ [ my information is correct. ]

Xu Qi. an was speechless.

[ 5: na na, you have nothing to say, right? ]

Ning was also an old 2d? Xu Qi ‘an pouted and heaved a sigh of relief. Yes, he was lying. However, it didn’t matter whether he lied or not.

For example. song tingfeng always said, ” I have a friend who is in poor health ...

Everyone knew that it was him, but did anyone blame him for lying?

As expected, no one responded to No. 5 in The Earth Book chat group. Everyone had their own thoughts.

I’m so envious of number three. He can pick up money every day when he goes out ... ‘I can’t even pay my salary ...’ Number two thought from the bottom of her heart.

So the one picking up money every day is number three. Yes, this penniless monk had suspected it back then ... ‘If I can pick up money every day, I can save more widows and lonely people ...’ Number six was extremely envious.

The one who picked up the silver was number three himself. Who could pick up silver so abnormally? I don’t remember the scholarly system of Yun Lu Academy having such a mystical aspect ... Number four was shocked. He thought of a possibility and quickly sent a letter, “[ number three, when did this happen? ]

Xu Qi ‘an hesitated for a moment before answering, [ about a month ago. ]

He deliberately shortened the time so that people wouldn’t find out that he was abnormal after the tax payment case.

.... Number Four’s heart was beating rapidly because he had a guess. That guess was so preposterous and bold that it caused his entire body to tremble as if an electric current was flowing through it.

More than a month ago. If he didn’t remember wrongly, the strange phenomenon of clear air soaring into the sky in Yun Lu Academy had also happened more than a month ago. At that time, number three had not joined the Heaven and Earth Society yet, and Daoist priest Golden Lotus had seriously entrusted number one to investigate the matter.

It was common knowledge that number three was a student of the Confucians. He was quite unusual in that he wasn’t very strong, but he had received too many resources and knew too many secrets that only the higher-ups of Yunlu Academy knew. This was very unreasonable. As a former scholar, number four had long sensed that something was wrong. It wasn’t that he doubted number three’s identity as a member of the Yun Lu Academy, but rather that he felt that the treatment he received was a little exaggerated.

But what if number 3 had something to do with Yun Lu Academy’s soaring clear Qi? Then wouldn’t it be reasonable for him to be valued by the higher-ups of Yun Lu Academy?

However, what was the connection between picking up silver and soaring to the sky ... Number four didn’t understand.

“I guess I’ll have to go back to Beijing and visit director Zhao.” Number four secretly decided to return to the capital before the end of the year.

Thinking of this, number four, who felt that he knew about number three’s Secret, curled his lips and sent a message, “[ interesting. I’ve underestimated number three in the past. It seems that I have to reevaluate your value and potential. ]

DID number four know why number three was picking up silver so frequently? And the reason behind this was related to some important secrets ... Otherwise, number four would not have given such an evaluation ... Other than number five, the others could tell that something was wrong from number Four’s words.

Seeing that everyone was almost done talking, Xu Qi ‘an narrowed his eyes and sent a letter with his finger.[ Oh, I have a question. Number five, how did you know that I was the one who picked up the silver? ]

With number Five’s intelligence, it was impossible for her to be lying to him. This meant that she really knew the reason why he picked up the silver. At least, she knew some inside information.

This was exactly what Xu Qi ‘an was eager to know. He had always been concerned about his Strange Luck.

[ 5: I can’t tell you. I promised ... ] [ you can’t reveal this to anyone, not even you. ]

Number five rejected him directly.

[ 3. Equivalent exchange. ]

[ 5: no exchange. One must be honest. ]

‘This silly girl, do you believe that I’ll put you on the blacklist and trash you once in the future? then, I’ll pull up my pants and refuse to recognize you ...’ Xu Qian ridiculed in his heart.

On second thought, Daoist priest Golden Lotus’s injury as the operator had yet to recover, so he couldn’t activate the private chat function. Now was indeed not a good time to ask.

When he could chat privately in the future, he would have a good chat with No. 5, this silly girl from the southern border, about life and ideals. There was still a lot of room for maneuvering.

.....

Imperial study, small court meeting.

Emperor Yuan jing, who was wearing a Daoist robe, was sitting high in the seat of honor, listening to the report of the magistrate, Chen hanguang. He was not angry, happy, or shocked by the rolling heads at Caishikou.

“The Minister of War and the Ministry of Revenue have both given their positions. What do you all think?” Emperor Yuan jing casually mentioned.

Immediately, some officials stepped forward and recommended their own people. Emperor Yuan jing expressionlessly watched the officials ‘fierce debate. For the two vacant positions of power, he wanted to beat the other party’s dog brain out.

Even Wei Yuan and Wang zhenwen, the two powerful figures, couldn’t avoid their fate.

Seeing that the conflict was getting more and more intense, several hot-tempered ministers had already rolled up their sleeves. Emperor Yuan jing knocked on the table to stop them.

“Minister Shang, you’re the Minister of Personnel, do you have any suggestions?”

Shang Xian strode forward. As he lowered his head in obeisance, he glanced at the first assistant Wang Wenzhen from the corner of his eyes. When he saw the latter shake his head imperceptibly, he said,

I’m afraid. I don’t have a candidate at the moment. Please tell me, Your Majesty.

“We’ll discuss this further,” Emperor Yuan jing nodded in satisfaction.

As expected ... The ministers slowly let out a breath in their hearts and looked at each other with hatred.

At this moment, Wei Yuan stepped out and said, “”Your Majesty, I have a Memorial.”

After Emperor Yuan jing nodded, Wei Yuan said, ” Xu Qi ‘an has made great contributions to the case of the princess of Ping Yang. Please reward him, Your Majesty.

He had already submitted the corresponding Memorial to the inner court the day before.

...

Emperor Yuan jing obviously knew the process of the case, and he also knew the contribution of Xu Qi ‘an. Whether it was the restart of the princess Ping Yang case, the discovery of monk Heng Hui’s traces, and the discovery of the princess Ping Yang’s body, that copper Gong had played a major role.

However, Emperor Yuan jing was still a little hesitant. He didn’t like the gong for no reason. The boy gave him a very disharmonious and uncomfortable feeling.

He hated it from the bottom of his heart.

When he saw him in the Imperial City and saw him crack the ground with one strike, the Spirit Dragon was so scared that it didn’t dare to move forward. At that moment, Emperor Yuan jing could not help but loathe him.

Just as Wei Yuan was about to speak, Minister sun suddenly shouted, “”Your Majesty, I have a report.”

He strode out of the ranks, bowed, and said righteously, “”I’ve been ordered to investigate the Mulberry case, and I’ve been working hard for the past few days. After this lowly subject investigated, the chief of the Supreme Court often said that they colluded with the Yao to attack sang Bo from the inside. Your Majesty, please fire this man and hand him over to this lowly subject for a thorough investigation.”

As the chief of the court of judicial review often said, he squinted his eyes and looked at Minister sun.

He was one of the core members of the Qi party. Because of the gunpowder Incident, another core member of the Qi party, the Minister of Works, had already walked a tightrope.

The Minister of Works snorted and walked out. “Your Majesty, the Ministry of Justice is accusing and slandering Lord Chang. I believe that the minister of rites is also a suspect.”

The minister of rites stepped out and shouted, “”I’ve been wronged.”

Wei Yuan sighed in disappointment. Sure enough, Emperor Yuan jing said, ” the Sang Bo case is not over. I ordered Xu Qi ‘an to continue to handle the case. Half a month has passed. If we can’t find out the truth, I will still kill him.”

...

“Your Majesty!” “Xu Qi ‘an may have failed in his case, but he has still made a contribution to Princess Ping Yang’s case.” Wei Yuan raised his eyebrows and bowed. How can it be a death sentence?”

All the officials looked at Wei Yuan with different emotions in their eyes. Some were gloating, some were surprised, and some were happy.

As the head of the king’s party, Minister sun attacked the Chief Justice on the surface, but he also shot an arrow at Wei Yuan in the dark. As long as the dispute in the Sang Bo case continued, Tong Gong, the Yamen’s Chief Officer, could not stay out of it. He was dragged into the water again.

In the same way, the head of the court of judicial review would also be labeled as a suspect. If the case wasn’t solved, he wouldn’t be able to remove it. Usually, it wasn’t a big deal, but during the capital investigation, such a big stain could be easily magnified.

When the time came, he would be included in the eight laws and he would be forced to pack up and leave. At the very least, he would have to be forced down from the position of Minister.

However, the minister of rites, who was also from the Royal faction, was also involved. It was worth it to trade one for two.

Was Wei Yuan overly concerned about a small gong? The ministers were sharp enough to capture this point.

As such, they increasingly acknowledged Minister sun’s operation. Although civil servants were very competitive, Wei Yuan was their number one enemy. They were willing to do anything that could make him angry.

“You’re tired, you may leave.” Emperor Yuan jing waved his hand.

The officials bowed in unison and left the Royal study in an orderly manner. The ministers all left in their own distinct ways. As soon as they stepped out of the meridian Gate, the atmosphere immediately changed dramatically.

The tense atmosphere disappeared. It was as if a big show had finally come to an end.

They were still enemies, but not as exaggerated as they had been in the Royal study.

The white-haired chief advisor Wang was dressed in a red robe. He smiled at Wei Yuan and said, ” Lord Wei, you seem to be very interested in the small gong. You are indeed a rare talent for making such a great contribution.

“It’s a pity that you don’t know how to be a good person. You shouldn’t have offended someone you shouldn’t have offended,” Wei Yuan said with a warm smile.

Chief advisor Wang was taken aback. why do you say that, Duke of Wei? we are taking in talents for the country and should protect them. How can we let him die halfway? ” he asked. If Duke Wei can’t protect them, then let me do it. ”

Wei Yuan looked at him deeply, his expression still gentle and emotionless, “”There’s no need to trouble Lord Chief Assistant.”

....

Wei Yuan returned to the Yamen in a carriage and ordered, “”Ask Xu Qi ‘an to come see me.”

At that time, Xu Qi ‘an was in the training field, practicing his saber techniques with Zhu guangxiao and song tingfeng.

“Old song, you haven’t been to the Imperial Academy recently? His breathing is much longer than before.” Xu Qi ‘an joked as he parried the combined attacks of his two colleagues.

“His monthly salary is basically fed to the women in the Imperial Academy, he doesn’t know restraint.” “Ningyan,” Zhu guangxiao said in a deep voice,”today’s him is the future you. You must take this as a warning.”

Among the three young men, Zhu guangxiao, who had been working hard, was the most restrained. It was not that he was abstinent, but that he wanted to save money to get married.

Xu Qi ‘an and song tingfeng loved Shen Gongbao the most. The former was fond of white silk, while the latter was unrestrained.

After reaching the spirit refinement realm, martial artists did not need to be abstinent, but they still had to exercise restraint.

At this moment, a black-robed official rushed over and stopped at the edge of the martial arts practice field. He shouted, “”Lord Xu, the Duke of Wei is summoning you.”
