Ren Chongyun said with a smile: "No matter how shrewd a person is, he is easy to be calculated by the people around him. Literature┡Scholar Ω.*But why would you make the same mistake twice? ”

"You ......" Xiao Cai was shocked, and habitually mentioned his true anger. But the true qi in her body suddenly collapsed, and she fell softly in the carriage.

Ren Chongyun sneered: "Xiao Cai, you shouldn't have asked me to send you in the first place. ”

"I shouldn't have trusted you!" Xiao Cai's grief even overshadowed her anger, she never thought that her comrades-in-arms who were born and died together would suddenly want to do it herself.

Ren Chongyun pinched Xiao Cai's chin and said with a cruel smile: "How much I liked you before!" But what about you? just teamed up with Xie Bangui to humiliate me, my biggest wish now is to watch Xie Bangui die. If you want to kill him, the two of you are indispensable. ”

Ren Chongyun shook off Xiao Cai and said sharply: "Come out and pick up people!" ”

On the originally empty wilderness, a few figures suddenly flashed, for the five poisonous demon queens who had been desperately chased and killed by Xiao Cai and Mei Xin'er.

The Five Poison Demon Queen looked at the "prey" who fell into the trap and said approvingly: "Good job!" ”

Ren Chongyun glanced at Xiao Cai with a complicated expression and said, "The person is handed over to you, I hope to see Xie Ban die this time." ”

The Five Poisonous Demon Queen smiled: "Xie Bangui will definitely die, but if you want to see it in person, you have to go to the Demon Slaying Conference, will you go?" ”

"It's enough for me to see his head." Ren Chongyun obviously didn't want to participate in any "Demon Slaying Conference", perhaps, he didn't realize it himself, he subconsciously had a trace of fear of Xie Bangui, and he didn't think that Xie Bangui would be killed easily.

The Five Poison Demon Queen didn't mean to invite more: "Okay then!" I hope there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future. ”

"That's all we can do." Ren Chongyun responded coldly, and strode away without looking back.

The Five Poison Demon Queen looked at his back and said, "The transaction is limited to this? Is it possible? ”

Jinling, on the Qinhuai River.

Xie Bangui, who was drunk, saw Lao Qian running in in a hurry before he got up: "Xie Bangui is not good!" The Chivalrous League wants to hold a demon slaying conference. ”

"Open it, what does it have to do with me?" Xie Ban's dull mind obviously didn't react.

Lao Qian jumped to his feet and said, "My lord, wake up quickly, right?" What they want to slaughter are Mei Yatou and Cai Yatou! ”

"What did you say?" Xie Bangui's drunkenness was frightened awake on the spot.

The tall fat man also seemed to have been stung by a scorpion, and jumped up and snatched the invitation card in the hand of the old money: "Chivalrous League, a demon slaying conference will be held on the seventh day of the seventh month of the seventh month, and the two girls will be publicly executed." Damn, they're looking for death. ”

Xie Bangui's first reaction was: "How could they fall into the hands of the Chivalrous League, what are the Water Moon Mirror Flowers for?" ”

Although Xie Bangui was angry, he didn't suspect that Shuiyue Jinghua handed over the two girls. Although they didn't have much to do with each other, he believed that with the arrogance of the Water Moon Mirror Flower, he would never do such a self-destructive thing.

Lao Qian added: "According to the news from friends in the rivers and lakes, this time the demon slaying conference has the shadow of Lingya. ”

The murderous shot in the eyes of the tall fat man: "Five poisonous demon queens, it's her again!" She's looking for death. It's June 15, and there is still more than half a month to go until July 7. They want to slay the demon, and I give him a big gift. Old Qian, you go back to the ghost to move the rescuers, and I'll ......"

"Wait!" Xie Bangui said: "Don't embarrass Uncle Zhang, the ghost has always been a white way in the rivers and lakes." Uncle Zhang and the others went, maybe they would be squeezed by the other party, but something bad would happen. ”

Lao Qian squinted his eyes and said, "Since they are the people, let's use officials to deal with him!" ”

As a master, Lao Qian naturally has to consider it as a whole, his original intention was to let Gao Fatzi transfer the trouble-relieving army under the command of the Duke of Rong to help, and use the official army to threaten the other party to comply. In doing so, he also has a bit of a desire to calm things down.

Although he didn't know what Xie Bangui had in mind, he was sure that if Xie Bangui made a move, things would only get out of hand. So the first thing Lao Qian did was to pay close attention to Xie Bangui. However, he never expected that the fat man who ran back to the Gongfu alone to move troops walked halfway and did something that made him stunned.

Although Emperor Zhu Hengwei returned to the capital, he was always relieved of his two sons. There is no other reason than because they are adrift in the rivers and lakes. As an emperor, he can't understand the diversity of the rivers and lakes, but he is deeply afraid of the bloody wind and blood of the rivers and lakes.

Similarly, Xie Bangui and Gao Fatzi didn't care about the tens of thousands of people in the court, and they were also afraid of the open and secret battles in the court, and they were frightened step by step.

Zhu Hengwei wanted them to enter the court as officials, but Xie Bangui and the fat man did not agree, just like most people did not want their father to arrange the rest of their lives, and came up with all kinds of ways to shirk their good intentions, but their father was tired of it, and repeatedly came up with different ways to force the object to accept his own point of view.

"Gao Sheng, Xie Bangui...... Xie Bangui, Gao Sheng......" Zhu Hengwei was still looking at the two names he had written, and Zhao Soyu walked over gently: "Your Majesty, Lord Gao sent a message to the slave Feiying, saying that he wanted to be an official." ”

"Oh?" The emperor was pleasantly surprised: "He has figured it out, what official he wants to be, tell me quickly!" ”

Zhao said with a strange face: "He wants to be a patrol of the Eight Mansions!" ”

"What?" Zhu Hengwei was a little stunned, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I allow the two of them to seek officials from me at any time, just so that they can serve the court one day, it seems that Gao Sheng has the heart of a Qingming official!" ”

The name of the patrol according to the Ming Dynasty, from the Ming Dynasty, is not a fixed official, temporarily appointed by the imperial court to supervise the imperial history, respectively, to inspect the provinces, and assess the governance of officials. But "Bafu Patrol" is an official position in the opera, how could a tall and fat man think of it?

Zhao looked at the emperor's face, and said cautiously: "Lord Gao begged the Eight Mansions to be pressed, but I am afraid that he is preparing to avenge the official for personal revenge!" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Hengwei's face sank suddenly: "What's the matter?" ”

"Here's the thing...... Zhao said concisely and concisely that the Five Poison Demon Ji repeatedly framed Xie Bangui, and the matter of the tall fat man said again: "This so-called demon slaying conference is also for the two adults, and the tall adults ......"

"Bastard!"

Before Zhao finished speaking, Zhu Hengwei was already furious, and raised his hand to break the white jade paperweight on the dragon book case into two: "A group of gangsters in the rivers and lakes actually intended to murder the imperial court officials, should be punished, should be punished, should be ......punished, should be punished."

Zhao said: "The emperor is angry, but the slave thinks this is an opportunity." The two adults are both geniuses in the world, and the reason why they refuse to enter the court as officials is that they are too obsessed with the rivers and lakes. If, one day, they can't stay in the rivers and lakes anymore, it is time to enter the court as officials! ”

"Huh?" Zhu Hengwei's face softened slightly: "Go on......"

"Yes!" Zhao said: "The slaves are in charge of the West Factory, so they don't have to deal with the people of the rivers and lakes, and they know them very well. The so-called people in the rivers and lakes do not have much affection for the imperial court, especially the people in the public gate. Those so-called white knights have even ranked the public at the bottom of the rivers and lakes. If the two adults are pushed against the Jianghu people, will the Jianghu still be their paradise? ”

"Humph!" Zhu Hengwei snorted coldly: "They are so bold, those gangsters who ignore the laws of the imperial court should have been punished a long time ago." Passed on the decree, awarded Gao Sheng the eight prefectures to patrol the press, Xie Bangui Jianghu patrol press, and specially investigated and dealt with serious and important cases involving people in the rivers and lakes in various state capitals. ”

Zhu Hengwei thought about it and still felt that it was not enough insurance, and said: "Give the two of them a golden knife with a ghost head, and the princes will not be punished if they are beheaded, and they will not be punished if they are beheaded by civil and military forces." In addition, the royal gold medal is given on both sides, and the guards can be called at any time to act cheaply. ”

Zhu Hengwei finally felt that it was almost the same: "You go to the cabinet to draft the decree now, as for how to phrase it, you can tell the cabinet yourself." ”

"Minion, let's do it!"

Before Zhao wanted to turn around, Zhu Hengwei said coldly: "Go and tell Cao Suixin, let him scrub the heavenly steps to me." Tell him that he will do it for himself. ”

"Slaves obey!" Zhao finally burned the fire on the head of his old opponent, and his face was like a flower, and he ran to the cabinet in a hurry.

Although several cabinet elders in the cabinet are a little inexplicable about the emperor's decision, in the bones of these scholars, they don't even have the slightest good impression of the people in the rivers and lakes. In their opinion, whether the people in the rivers and lakes are chivalrous or demonic, they are the bane of the group of people who violate the ban and provoke the imperial court, and they must be eliminated if they are not used by the imperial court.

However, there are some things that need to be weighed.

One of the pavilion elders spoke: "Dare to ask Duke Zhao, why did the emperor suddenly make such a decision?" ”

Zhao said coldly: "The emperor was in distress in the border city a few times ago, and there are a number of shadows of bandits in the rivers and lakes......

"Humph!" Someone burst into a rage and said: "This group of gangsters who forget their interests should have been eliminated a long time ago." ”

Someone saw the opportunity and said: "Your Majesty, although this time it is aimed at the people of the rivers and lakes, the two patrols arranged are not satisfactory. After all, there is no precedent for Wu Xun and Kuai to serve as patrol officers in our court, and this matter is inappropriate, very inappropriate. ”

Zhao Suxiang seemed to have expected the other party to say this, and said unhurriedly: "It seems that the miscellaneous family has two of them as the patrol press. Think about it, who are those gangsters? All of them are outlaws, wow! If it is replaced by an inspector and a royal history patrol, I am afraid that I will be poisoned before the case is investigated. Xie Bangui and Gao Sheng, the two adults, are quite familiar with the ghost tricks of the people in the rivers and lakes, and they also have martial arts, so it is very suitable to serve as a patrol. ”

"This ...... What Zhao Gong said is very good. ”

The elders of the cabinet think about it, this kind of thing is not only thankless, but maybe it will also lose its head, and no one in the Wenchen is willing to do it. The generals disdain to do it, as for the six doors, forget it! They are eye-to-eyed with the people in the rivers and lakes, have they done less about Antong's songs?

Thinking about it, the size and length of Xie Bangui and Gao Sheng are just right.

Someone said tentatively: "The patrol also has the duty of the chief inspector, and the origins of the two of them, I'm afraid they won't be justified, right?" ”

Zhao pretended to be disdainful and said: "The emperor didn't mean to let them check the rules. Even if they want to check, they have to have the ability to do it. ”

A few cabinet elders nodded secretly when they heard this, inspecting the officials to govern this kind of thing, not to mention that the relationship between the upper and lower officials is intertwined, just those treacherous and ghost-like officials can play the inexperienced imperial envoys around.

Letting two people who have never even experienced officialdom go to investigate the rule of officials is simply a big joke in the world.

Zhao Yuxiang followed the conversation and said: "However, then again, if someone below does something that is in cahoots with the gangsters in the rivers and lakes, you can't blame the two patrols for being fast." ”

Zhao Yuyu's deliberate mention of the point is equivalent to pushing hundreds of people under the knife. The middle-level officials of the Ming Dynasty are more or less involved in the Jianghu people, and as long as the cabinet is revealed, the first thing they do is to clear up the relationship. This is definitely a big blow to the rivers and lakes.

Taking a step back, even if the cabinet does not reveal the news, he himself will release the news, provoke the anger of the rivers and lakes, and force Xie Bangui to oppose the people in the rivers and lakes.

Since the agreement between the monarch and the ministers was reached, the degree of the holy decree was naturally surprisingly fast, and in less than five days, the two patrol lords, Xie Bangui and Gao Fatzi, took office in Jinling secretly.
