Chapter Forty-Eight: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves

Liu Yang's move was sudden, like flowing water, without dragging mud and water at all. If it is, Yang Zhuoyi, who has a good knife technique, will definitely admire it when he sees it here.

"Whew..."Seeing that the waist knife was about to cut off the little head of the female doll, but somehow, it was like a ghost, and it was cut on the tiles on the ridge of the roof.

And the female doll has disappeared and is missing.

Could it be that he was wrong? Before Liu Yang could react, a group of people rushed over with lanterns.

The leader was a young man dressed in a fancy costume, and Liu Yang recognized that he was Tian Zhen's nephew, that is, Tian Zhengguo, the son of the former chief of the guard of the Nancheng Guard's Mansion.

"Okay, you dog minion... Kill my uncle..."Tian Zhengguo led a group of people to wait, and when he came to him, he pointed at Liu Yang without saying anything, and scolded loudly.

This sudden scolding, like a thunderbolt from the sky, made Liu Yang stand on the spot.

At this moment, when the cold wind blew across his soaked back, a chill penetrated into his heart, and after a shiver, Liu Yang also sobered up a lot.

It turned out that this Tian Zhengguo, until his father, who was the chief of the guard, was killed for no reason, and he himself always wanted to take the place and become the chief guard of Nancheng. But his uncle has always disagreed, but let an outsider, an inconspicuous little guard, become the chief of the guard.

For this evil breath, he has been holding back, not for a day or two.

Today, he happened to be in the warm quilt of his house, hugging his newly acquired concubine, happy and romantic. But he never thought that someone from the Shouwei Mansion in Nancheng came to say that Lord Shouwei had been killed and his life was in danger, so he hurried over to preside over the overall situation.

As soon as he arrived at the Shouwei Mansion, Tian Zhengguo saw the miserable scene in Tianfu, and he also cried with grief and indignation, and fell on Tian Zhen's corpse, crying profusely.

After crying and wiping away his tears, Tian Zhengguo looked up and found Mrs. Tian and asked what happened.

Mrs. Tian is Tian Zhen's original wife, and Tian Zhen has been clean and self-loving all her life, and only married her one wife. The pain of losing her husband makes Mrs. Tian, who is over half a hundred years old, feel worse than life, and people are also crying to death and life, where can she answer her nephew.

In the end, it was in the mouths of the people in the house that Tian Zhen's only daughter, Tian Ling, cried intermittently, and finally let Tian Zhengguo understand the whole story.

Of course, it sounds easy, but it is a little harder to understand. After all, I didn't see it with my own eyes. Tian Zhengguo looked at them and talked about what kind of female ghost dolls, what kind of heart-wrenching hearts, what arms are like hemp ropes...... And so on, like a ghost legend, which makes people listen to the incredible.

But over and over again, the core character in it is Liu Yang, who has just become the chief guard of the Nancheng Guard's Mansion not long ago.

When everyone calmed down a bit, they found that Liu Yang was not in the house. As a result, Tian Zhengguo, who was already holding a grudge, immediately felt that his uncle Tian Zhen was killed by Liu Yang as soon as he moved his head slightly.

Coupled with the crisis of the situation at that time, I couldn't see it very clearly in the dark night, and when the people in the house rushed over, they only saw Tian Zhen running in front and Liu Yang chasing behind, which caused some people to think that the culprit was Liu Yang.

Tian Zhennai is the captain of the southern city of Guanping City, not an ordinary poor person, but an important minister of the government. If it is said that he was killed by a female ghost doll, who will believe it? How will I explain to the city lord's mansion and how will I explain to the lord of the country in Aikawa...

In this way, Liu Yang became the best scapegoat.

However, after that day, in Guanping City, the bizarre death of Tian Zhen, the guard of Nancheng, shocked the officialdom of the entire Guanping City.

Those high-ranking officials and gentlemen, although they were used to flying and domineering in the past, but now one by one, they have to clamp their tails and live a frightened life.

The people in the city are not as frightened as they are, and they can live their lives as they should, but after tea and dinner, there is more to talk about.

Li Tengfei, as the lord of the city, personally came to preside over Tian Zhen's funeral, and the pomp was not small, which made Tianfu extremely mournful.

Although it is a festive day in the first month, the official family ordered the people of the whole city to mourn the unknown Nancheng Captain Tian Zhen.

Just after Tian Zhen was buried, early one morning, several unkempt beggars sneakily climbed onto his grave.

Maybe they were so hungry that they looked at the fruit steamed buns that had passed away in front of the grave, and they couldn't wait for a while to fill their stomachs.

But just as they were feasting and enjoying breakfast, a man in tattered robes, carrying a waist knife with a few openings, ran over quickly.

When the beggars saw the man, they ran towards them with fierce looks, and fled in all directions, not forgetting to get more food before leaving.

The man didn't pay attention to the fleeing beggars, and went straight to Tian Zhen's grave, looking at this new grave, because it had just been buried for a few days, so it had not yet erected a monument to build a tomb, and it had just been trampled by the beggars for a while, and it was already a mess at this time.

This man is Liu Yang, I don't know what he has experienced in just a few days, which has made him completely lose his former vigor and become depressed and sad.

"Your Excellency, don't worry... Even if you can only survive for one day, you will find out the real culprit and avenge you..."

He fell to his knees, kowtowed three times, and got up and walked into the thick fog of the early morning......

In the following days, two things happened in the city, but all the citizens of the city were puzzled and lamented for a long time.

This first thing is that after Tian Zhen's death, the position of the captain of the southern city of Guanping City was taken over by Li Tengfei's son Li Yiyi.

Not only that, but even Tian Zhengguo got his wish and became the chief guard of the Nancheng Guard's Mansion.

The first important thing he did when he took office was to arrest Liu Yang, the former chief of the guard. Of course, there is no need for him to do the specific matters himself, and there are already people below who will worry about him for him.

Now, in the streets and alleys of the city, portraits of Liu Yang are posted everywhere, and the official documents of sea fishing have also been distributed to the guards of the city.

And the second thing is that Mrs. Tian, Miss Tian and other family members can no longer live in the Shouwei Mansion, so they have to move their families to Tian Zhengguo's house.

As a nephew, Tian Zhengguo is still benevolent and righteous, and arranged a few servants to take care of them well.

But the price is the family property left by Tian Zhen, and beside Mrs. Hetian, a few beautiful maids as his concubines.

Mrs. Tian's mother and daughter, orphans and widows, are also unable to compete with Tian Zhengguo for property. For the sake of his mother's future life, he has a settlement, so he can only be at his mercy.

Before Tian Zhen's bones were cold, his nephew robbed the family property, which was spurned by the people in the city for a while. Of course, this spitting can only be carried out behind the scenes, otherwise it will be a lawsuit.

Until the day of the Lantern Festival, Li Yiyi, who took office, summoned Tian Zhengguo in the Nancheng Governor's Mansion.

The two of them, who were in a high position at a young age, naturally had a little more pride, and after greeting each other, they turned to the main topic.

Li Yiyi was still dressed in a pitch-black robe, if it was thin, her delicate face was a little abnormally pale.

At this time, he was calm and cold, sitting cross-legged on the top position. looked at Tian Zhengguo, who was sitting in the lower position, and listened to the other party talk eloquently about the future development plan and personnel planning.

"My lord, my subordinates feel that the entire Guanping City needs to change the old twilight spirit, the calm and conservative of the older generation, although it is worth learning, but it hinders the long-term plan... Your Excellency is young and promising, and it is time for reform and innovation... Strengthen strength..."Tian Zhengguo is wearing snow-white soft armor today, and he is full of confidence when he speaks.

"Jeongguk... Then what can you say?" After Tian Zhengguo finished speaking, Li Yi was expressionless and asked.

"My subordinates feel that the adults should gather more manpower in case of emergency, so as to lay the foundation for becoming the city lord in the future..."

"It's too early to say this, and you have a heart..."

Tian Zhengguo was overjoyed when he heard this, just now he was just a temptation to pat himself on the back, and Li Yiyi acquiesced.

They are all smart people, a little bit is thorough, it seems that his future future is limitless, maybe when Li Yiyi becomes the city lord, he should be promoted to a level and become the next captain of Nancheng.

"Zhengguo, what do you think of the people in the Axe Palace?" Li Yiyi was calm as usual, and didn't seem to pay attention to Tian Zhengguo's inner activities, and asked him.

"The subordinates feel that these people are brave and unruly, although they are difficult to control, but they can still be used skillfully. Take the matter of avenging your mother, the guards of the city, after years of pampering, have lost much ability to fight. On weekdays, in addition to bullying the honest people, it's okay to make some money, but it really depends on them to take revenge, and I don't think many of them are competent..."

"That's what I mean, you come with me to see Zhang Kai at night..."

"Yes..."Tian Zhengguo hurriedly said yes, there seemed to be a fire in his heart, the dignified Li Gongzi, let himself go to work together, that is to treat himself as a confidant!

Subsequently, the two of them chatted about the situation in Guanpingcheng and the basic situation of the forces of all parties, and discussed and met with each other on the information they understood.

After judging the situation for a while, they all felt that the most effective move so far was to take the initiative to take revenge on Heifengzhuang, so as to get rid of this scourge for the sake of Guanping City.

In this way, you can earn political achievements for yourself, and secondly, you can also buy more people's hearts, after all, when others have a lot, they value the strength of your ability, rather than some vain things.

The stronger you are, the more people will support you, and this is also an iron law within officialdom.

Of course, a certain background is still very necessary, otherwise Li Yiyi and Tian Zhengguo, these two young people, would not have ascended to the position that others would not be able to beg for the rest of their lives.
