Volume 3 The Stars Hold the Moon, and I Walk Alone Section 28 Knock him on a bamboo pole
The Wei family in Weicheng is not smooth in their official career, and it is impossible for the Chu royal family to recover even if they decide to suppress it, but the Chu royal family has shortcomings, that is, "people's hearts". It's not that Chu is unpopular, the main thing is that the local sentiment of the people is extremely strong, and the Wei family is Weidi, which is the common cognition of the people of Weidi, and it is also the reason why the Wei family has not fallen.
The eagle claw who handled the case was under the influence of this local complex, covering up the fact that "Wei Linxian" was involved in the Xia Wei Street Well case, and the two-clawed flying eagle had no repentance, and he also thought that this was not a betrayal, on the contrary, he was loyal to the Eagle Claw Division.
"My lord, the Wei family is Weidi, if my eagle claws offend the Wei family, it will be difficult to move an inch."
Hu Shandiao was not angry, he didn't think that this eagle claw was an exaggeration, he had vaguely heard of the Wei family when he was Zhang Fen Eagle Dog, and the Wei family was the real head snake of Weidi, not like him. If the Eagle Claw Division really had a fight with the Wei family, the rumors in the market alone would be enough for the Eagle Claw Division to drink a pot, and when the Eagle Claw Division went out to handle cases or perform tasks, it would be subject to all kinds of yin and yang violations.
"What if Wei Linxian is a real person?"
Hearing this, the eagleclaw's eyes suddenly widened, and he stammered, really, really, really?
Ordinary people actually don't know about real people, and it is not Guozong and Chu Shisi who demonize "real people", but the countries of Kyushu. Hu Shandiao used to wonder why outside the Chu State, real people were flying all over the sky, and after listening to the words of the painting boat, he knew that the real people outside Kyushu should belong to the players of the "Xiuzhen League".
As for how the Xiuzhen Alliance solved the player's "Soul Mind Body", it was impossible for Hu Shandiao to know, and if he knew, he would have cracked the secret of the Chu State's Soul Domain. But if you want to come to Xiuzhen Alliance, it is impossible to create such a vast soul domain as the Chu State, it should be a small area, and there is no relevant news in the human world, which means that these players in other states know what they are doing.
More than 300 people of the "Eagle Guard" formed by Hu Shandiao walked through the streets and alleys, and the hundreds of people in Weicheng were not surprised by this, after all, the youngest lieutenant of Chu State was not once or twice swaggering through the city, but whenever he traveled, this eagle claw lieutenant must be a huge pomp and circumstance.
The real person in charge of the Wei family is "Wei Zexian", this person has a high level of chivalry, although he is eighty years old, he is still fierce, and he also accepted an eighteen-year-old concubine last year, and it is natural that he has many children and grandchildren. Wei Zexian has a total of thirty-eight children, but none are still alive today, Wei Linxian is the son of Wei Zexian's twenty-sixth son, and his grandchildren are seventy-eight, also known as Wei seventy-eight.
Although the Wei family is an old aristocrat, their social status is still poor, Hu Shandiao led a team to visit, and Wei Zexian did not dare to sell the old and not come out to greet him. Etiquette is quite important, especially for an old nobleman like the Wei family, who took two quarters of an hour just to greet him, and then opened the middle door to welcome Hu Shan inside.
If Hu Shandiao is notified a few days in advance, the greeting ceremony will be more cumbersome, but it also means that the cost is larger.
Hu Shandiao sat in the main seat, Wei Zexian sat with him, the head of the family on the face of Wei Jiaming "Wei Linzhong" sat next time, and the rest of the idle people were not qualified to sit down, or left, or stood behind the two elders of the Wei family.
"Meng Shanou", the director of the Eagle Guard, handed the heavier file to Wei Zexian, Wei Zexian was also quite uneasy when he was puzzled, and his hand trembled slightly to open the file. The dossier records in detail the facts, inferences, losses, etc. of the Weijiejing case, and the people involved in the case are full of records, among which the name of Wei Linxian is circled by a red pen.
Such an obvious point out of Wei Linxian, Wei Zexian can see clearly no matter how old and dizzy he is, not to mention his excellent eyesight, he slowly closed the file, and did not pretend to ask for guilt or scold his grandchildren, but just whispered, "Let Linxian come over."
When Hu Shandiao observed Wei Linxian, this handsome player was also observing Hu Shandiao, he did not observe secretly, but looked directly at Hu Shandiao. Wei Zexian secretly exclaimed, got up and patted Wei Linxian's back, signaling this grandson to quickly bow down and salute, Wei Linxian did not continue strongly, and leaned over slightly to Hu Shandiao to salute and greet him.
"Wei Linxian, can you recognize Shenxi?" Meng Shanou asked in a calm tone, he is 27 this year, but he is a chivalrous 178 level, and when he was recruited by Hu Shandiao into the Eagle Claw Division, he cried bitterly, not unwillingly, but too willing.
Learning literary and martial arts and selling them to the emperor's family, there are not many ways for knights to become promoted, except that being a soldier is to be a thug or a killer or something like that, being able to join the official secretary of Chu is the goal of most chivalrous people. The 27-year-old 178-level knight is a genius, but such a genius is still rejected by various officials, there is no way and no connections, and it is difficult for geniuses to find jobs.
"Shen Xi is my friend", Wei Linxian replied, but he wondered in his heart, he led the Weijie Well case and did not invite Shen Xi, and it was impossible to invite him. The Xia Wei Street Well Case is a very proud work for Wei Linxian, he pushed the "Wei Tuan" in front of the screen, and pushed the Qu Ying Ying on the second line, and at the same time, the "Cold Mountain Weeping Guest" who contacted the Qu Ying Ying was the third line.
The three lines of defense are enough to index the line to his body, and Wei Linxian naturally has the confidence to face the Eagle Claw Division, but at this time, hearing "Shen Xi", Wei Linxian's confidence is a little unstable, he vaguely remembers that once Shen Xi came to him, and he was discussing the plan of Xia Wei Street with a group of players, and later, Shen Xi left.
"Could it be that he heard it? But I didn't notice anyone nearby. Could it be that Shen Xi had a treasure of remote eavesdropping on him at that time? Well, then this person should have another plan when he approached me, and he happened to hear my plan, so he put the plot on hold for the time being, and instead participated in the Xia Wei Street Well case. ”
Thinking of this, Wei Linxian had the urge to vomit blood, is it easy for him to interlock? There was a mistake outside the link. Thinking a little distracted, he was patted on the back by his grandfather again, Wei Linxian came back to his senses, and found that his grandfather was secretly warning him, Wei Linxian quickly packed up his mind and took the file in his grandfather's hand.
Just when Wei Linxian was concentrating on reading the file, the soul mind sensed the danger, Wei Linxian pointed at the dangerous place without hesitation, and a cold light drilled out of his sleeve, "Ding", the Hidden Blade and the rune shield collided together. Meng Shanou took advantage of this stagnant opportunity to retreat to Hu Shandiao's side, and as soon as he retreated, the cold light that defeated the Fu Shield grazed his left cheek, leaving a deep blood mark on his left side of his face.
Wei Zexian got up "huh", but before he could ask, the young lieutenant who was drinking tea leisurely held the teacup and asked, "Can the ladder be declared?" ”
Wei Zexian's heart tightened, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but Wei Linxian was not nervous, "It has been reported to Taiyizong."
Wei Zexian was shocked when he heard this, but his face sat back quietly in place, "When did Xian'er have any dealings with Taiyi Sect?" Wei Zexian thought.
Hu Shandiao was happy in his heart, there was a suspicious point in Li Hongjie's assassination case, that is, why Li Hongjie, such a cunning and suspicious person, believed the warning letter, and instead did not go to "Zhongwei Street" on the first day of the fourth lunar month, but invited his own financiers in advance.
Li Hongjie is one of the chess pieces that Taiyizong put outside, and the only thing that can make Li Hongjie believe is Taiyizong, so Hu Shandiao concluded that the warning letter was given to Li Hongjie by Taiyizong, but this is a fake letter. The Taiyi Sect seal hidden in the letter is not fake, but the content of the warning is false, the purpose is to let Li Hongjie not go to Zhongwei Street, but to hold a banquet on Youling Street.
It is much easier to assassinate Li Hongjie on Youling Street than on Zhongwei Street, and the assassination scene can be arranged in advance, which is the real effect of the warning letter.
But Hu Shandiao didn't find any relevant clues, until he found out that Wei Linxian was a high-ranking Xuan Xiu, he was actually not sure that Wei Linxian was a "player", he could only say that he was suspicious. The evidence that gave rise to this suspicion is that the main body of the Xiawei Street Well case is a player, and if Wei Linxian is involved, there is a high probability that it will be a player.
The reason why I can't be completely sure is how a player can get the support of Taiyizong?
"Now it seems that it is unreliable for Guozong not to participate in the fusion of the player's soul, and also, who doesn't have relatives of the three aunts and six mothers-in-law, the cultivator of the painting boat has found the female player of Huaru to explain the sacred inside story, and the one from the Taiyi Sect can't say it if he makes a holy oath, but he can also use some off-board moves."
Hu Shandiao got the name he wanted-Shao Guoping, this person is the person of the Taiyi Sect who Wei Linxian reported for his ladder. At Hu Shandiao's signal, Wei Zexian asked the rest of the people to retreat, including Wei Linxian, which made Wei Linxian feel humiliated, and he wanted to change his development plan and join the officialdom of Chu instead of Guozong.
Wei Zexian understands the meaning of Hu Shandiao very well, Wei Linxian's Xuan Xiu identity is not in line with Chu law when he reports in Guozong, and he has to go to Chu Shisi if he wants to report. Therefore, legally, Wei Linxian is Ye Xuanxiu, and when Ye Xuanxiu is discovered, the procedure of the Eagle Claw Division is to track and report to Chu Shisi as soon as possible, and Chu Shisi will carry out follow-up actions.
But it is not right to say that the Eagle Claw Division does not have the authority to arrest Ye Xuanxiu, if you are not afraid of death, the Eagle Claw Division can go to arrest Xuan Xiu, and Chu Shisi has no clear regulations on this.
Just need to be caught? There is no need at all, the Wei family has a wild mystic cultivation, the Wei family has relevant responsibilities, the Eagle Claw Division does not arrest people at all, just knock on your Wei family's bamboo pole, will your Wei family give it or not?
Of course, Wei Zexian roared in his heart with great certainty.
How much does that give?
In the eastern suburbs of Weicheng, the steward of the mellow winery "Tun Yun" "picked up" five carriages without horses in the afternoon, and Tun Yun coincidentally drove ten horses and pulled these five carriages back.
"There is a lack of people", Hu Shandiao sighed while lying in the winery.
Zhao Ruyi, Qian Tong and others are all old people left by Liao Longji or Zhang Fen, Zhuang Renxuan was forcibly recruited, although he was active after receiving the support of Hu Shandiao, but to say that loyalty is nothing. Tun Yun is a one-armed swordsman, under the hard push of Hu Shandiao's "Zhujian Dan, Xia Yuan Dan" and so on, the level of chivalry has risen from 17 to 71 now, but the knight is a shackle of qualifications, and Tun Yun's qualifications can only reach level 99.
Meng Shanou was willing to swear allegiance to Hu Shandiao in Taiqing, he was the first loyal ladder after Tunyun, and Hu Shandiao naturally had to be cultivated more. Monsan's qualifications are the most top-notch, as long as he has sufficient resources, he can be promoted to the 900th level of chivalry, and after completing the position of "Ma Zhao Wenguan Four Martial Gods", he can also obtain "Xuantong" while soaring into the three ladders.
Chivalry level 600 can enter the path of "Ma Zhao Wenguan Four Martial Gods", but when the chivalrous is level 900, you can kill Ma, Zhao, Wen, and Guan, thus becoming the "Ma Zhao Wenguan Four Martial Gods".
Li Hongjie built a dungeon under the Siwei Hall, which contained four Xuan Xiu, Ma, Zhao, Wen, and Guan, as well as a war beast. It can be said that Li Hongjie has prepared all the resources, and once his transfer document is issued, he can directly step into the path and become a three-echelon Xuan Xiu of the "Ma Zhao Wenguan Four Martial Divine Monarchs".
"It can be said that I now have two means to directly obtain the high ladder Xuan Xiu, one is the ladder of the Xuan Candle: Zhong Kui, and the other is the Ma Zhao Wenguan Four Martial Divine Monarchs, the former is the first ladder after fusion, and the latter is the three ladders with Xuantong, but there is a lack of people!" Hu Shandiao sighed again in the rocking chair.
When Tun Yun approached with his empty left sleeve, he happened to hear it, so he shouted, "Yingying Yanyan Jiaojiao, don't hurry up and wait for your husband." ”
Hu Shandiao hit a spirit, Ma Dan, what are you shouting? Without waiting for him to get up, three figures rushed over, if he got up at this time, the three concubines would pounce, Hu Shandiao had no choice but to glare at Tun Yun angrily, and obediently lay on the rocking chair, enjoying the service of the three concubines who were only sixteen years old.
The eldest concubine Feng Yingying is knowledgeable and courteous, and she plays a good flute.
The second concubine, Li Yanyan, can sing and dance, and shakes her waist well.
The third concubine Xu Jiaojiao has a strong chest, and she has a good pair.
These three concubines are the daughters of the three officials in Weicheng, and they are also very desperate for promotion, and after accepting their daughters, Hu Shandiao naturally helped them get the official positions they wanted.
Liao Longji was very appreciative of Hu Shandiao's recommendation of low-level officials in Weicheng, and he mistakenly thought that Hu Shandiao wanted to lay out in Weicheng. Hu Shandiao's misunderstanding can only be acquiescing, how dare he say that he has no intention of laying out Weicheng at all, it is completely "full of warmth and thinking about that desire".
Chivalry and Xuan Xiu have not been enhanced in that aspect, but if they use some means, they can also achieve that effect, of course Hu Shandiao disdains to use means, his strength and the reincarnation of the saint, it is a matter of a few hours to get the three little women.
The refreshed young lieutenant ran to accept the bribe, and the Wei family really did not disappoint him, and the five truckloads of goods sent were quite good, if it was to be valued by Yuanjing, it would be about 30,000. It's just that Yuanjing ore is rare, and although the countries use Yuanjing coins as currency, they also control circulation, and the transaction of Yuanjing coins and goods is the mainstream.
Meng Shanou's gesture was very direct, Wei Zexian didn't dare to think about anything else, the five truckloads of goods are all "art level" resources, but the freshness is extremely poor, so don't look at the quantity, the amount of the "person" character seal after absorbing it is not as good as the heritage of the "painting boat".
"Ladder, corpse" is the main goal of Hu Shan carving at present, but it is also extremely difficult, in order to fill the "person" character seal, Hu Shan carving estimated, must obtain a secret realm similar to the wooden cave. And if you want to condense the skeleton, it is even more terrifying, you need at least 10 first ladder of the primordial spirit, and the skeleton condensed in this way is still the most basic.
Hu Shandiao kept to himself, this is the main reason why the Weicheng officialdom did not scold him, if he was laid out in Weicheng as Liao Longji thought, the old officials in Weicheng could kill him when they were resting. Take the two things of accepting bribes from the Wei family and accepting the daughters of other officials as concubines, the "Legal Affairs Department" in Weicheng can make a fuss, which is not enough to make Hu Shandiao step down, but it is disgusting enough for Hu Shandiao, and at the same time, it can also insinuate Liao Longji.
The "Legal Affairs Department" is the discipline inspection agency of the Chu State, and the lieutenant "Guo Weiyi", now 47 years old, is a seven-echelon Xuan Xiu, and a hardcore friend of the Weicheng Mansion Prime Minister "Xiong Xiao". Obviously, the Wei family also has a close relationship with this legal secretary, and not long after the bribe was sent out, Guo Weiyi appeared in the "phase hall" of the Weicheng Mansion.
Xiong Xiao, people do not live up to his name, he has been the prime minister of Weicheng for six years, and there are very few smiles, although his governing ability cannot be said to be mediocre but not outstanding. However, Weicheng has a solid foundation, and as long as any Weicheng minister does not mess around, Weicheng's economy can rise, which is the difference between the speed and slowness of the rise.
There are eleven cities in the Chu State, but it is not just "eleven places", these eleven cities are made up of hundreds of "lands", and "Chu destroyed more than 400 countries and dominated Xiaozhou" is not fake.
The tasks of each city are different, Xiangwei City is to provide military funds for the "Eastern Chu Water Division" and the "Chu Wei Army", and then it is to submit a fixed amount of taxes every quarter, one-third is Yuan Jing, and the rest is treasures, art products, etc. Guangcheng grows a large number of yuan food, and sends hundreds of thousands of carts of yuan food to Yingdu every month, and also has to submit a fixed amount of tax every quarter.
Hangcheng is the maritime development base of Chu State, and the treasure-class warships and technical warships of Chu State are all built by Hangcheng Shipyard, and the Southern Chu Naval Division is stationed on the "Qianhang Island" near Hangzhou. In addition, some of those cities are responsible for armaments, some are responsible for border defense, some are responsible for craftsmen, etc., and it can be said that each city has its own strengths.
Once the three saints in the world have the idea that the current territory of Chu is too small, the overlord warship of Chu will set sail again, making Xiaozhou, which is still calm, into an uproar.
Therefore, the king of Chujiang, who had not yet become Yu Chu, had already issued important orders to the cities, and now although Liao Longji was in power, the ruling minister had not changed Xiong Qibai's policy.
Guo Weiyi's intention to scare Hu Shandiao could not be realized, Xiong Xiao thought in his heart, once he targeted Hu Shandiao, it would cause Weicheng shock, and once the shock was too strong and affected the indicators of the royal capital, then the royal capital would have enough reason to slap the board on him Xiong Xiao.
Shangwei Street, Chu Shi Division, Siwei Hall.
Captain Chu Shi "Zong Ze" swept an item into the drawer with a smile, and his skillful movements made Hu Shandiao feel ashamed, obviously this thin old man is also a good hand at receiving gifts! After Zong Ze continued to release goodwill, and Hu Shandiao also received a definite answer from Liao Longji, he often came to drink Zong Ze's "tea".
Zong Ze is also a Yu person, this, Hu Shandiao is not surprised, Liao Longji seems to only believe in the original Yu people, but it is not that as long as it is a Yu person, Liao Longji believes it, but these Yu people are the descendants of the loyal ministers of Yu State. Hu Shandiao is also a descendant of Yu Guozhong's loyal ministers, which Liao Longji has already investigated, but Hu Shandiao himself does not understand why the investigation can be flawless.
In Hu Shandiao's view, his identity is full of leaks, and in the end, he can only attribute it to the role played by some old arrangements of "Li Yindan".
