Chapter 417: Defeat

When the two guards saw the young man fleeing and were about to chase after him with their swords, Wen Qiao shouted in time: "Stop!"

He spoke in a loud voice, but his tone was so heavy that the two guards did not dare to easily disobey his orders.

The person who opened the door who was controlled by Wen Qiao finally reacted in hindsight at this time.

"Shao, Shaoxia, what are you going to do?" The person who opened the door shook and trembled when he spoke, his life was still in Wen Qiao's hands, and he didn't dare to move, for fear that Wen Qiao would kill him if he was unhappy.

Wen Qiao is very tall, and he is a head taller than the person who opened the door.

He turned his head sideways to stare at the man who opened the door, and saw that his face was trembling with fear, but he never said anything to him. If he hadn't seen Jiang Cheng enter this courtyard with his own eyes last night, maybe he would have listened to this person say a few words.

Wen Qiao maintained the posture of holding a short knife in his backhand, and said to the two guards, "Go find the rope and come over."

Hearing this, the person who opened the door was even more panicked, and he tried his best to defend himself, "What are you going to do, this, this is my house!"

Everything that happened just now was less than a few minutes, and Wen Qiao didn't know why the person who opened the door could hide his ears so much and act as if what had just happened hadn't happened.

The young man had only been away for a few minutes, and there were still some traces of his blood on the ground.

The two guards quickly found a rope and came over, and after tying the door opener firmly, Wen Qiao directly raised his foot and kicked him hard.

He didn't use much force, but he still kicked the door opener to the ground.

The mouth of the person who opened the door was also blocked, and at this time he could only whimper and struggle at the original address.

Everything was already clear and clear, and Wen Qiao was too lazy to listen to this person's nonsense. After cleaning up the door opener, Wen Qiao reinserted the short knife into the scabbard.

He stepped over the threshold of the courtyard and into the narrow alley where he had been hiding.

Everything that had just happened was seen by the emperor himself, and as soon as he walked over, he noticed that the emperor was staring at the courtyard with a calm face. He bowed to the Emperor and asked, "Your Majesty."

Without saying a word, the emperor walked past Wen Qiao and walked into the courtyard.

The man who opened the door was tied, and two guards stood by his side, so that he had no chance of escaping. The house is not large, it is a very ordinary small courtyard, and there are only two rooms.

Wen Qiao followed behind the emperor and walked to the door of a slightly larger room, and Wen Qiao took the initiative to push the door open.

Fortunately, the door of this room was not locked, and Wen Qiao pushed it open directly.

As soon as the door opened, Wen Qiao was suffocated by the picture that appeared in front of him.

His heart was instantly stung, and when he looked at the emperor next to him, he saw him standing motionless.

There was no expression on the emperor's face, but Wen Qiao inexplicably experienced some of the emperor's mood at this time. He didn't show any sound, but the aura around him had changed.

The room was filled with sacks, and beyond the sacks there were about a dozen boxes. Although he hadn't checked it out in person, Wen Qiao had already figured out what was in these sacks and alleys.

Seeing these things with his own eyes at this time, Wen Qiao sighed, and then shook his head helplessly. Jiang Cheng killed dozens of his subordinates, and he still had a sense of revenge at this time.

"Your Majesty, this," the chamberlain Wang Shun looked embarrassed, he looked at the things in the room and then at the emperor.

The Emperor did not speak, he put one hand behind his back, and after Wang Shun had finished speaking, he walked closer to the sacks. The emperor's hand untied the rope that bound the sack, and the sack was opened, revealing the white-flowered rice inside.

After inspecting the contents with his own eyes, the emperor walked over to the boxes again, and when he opened them, sure enough, they contained the disaster silver that had been transferred.

At this time, Wen Qiao and Wang Shun didn't dare to provoke the emperor, and the two of them watched in silence as the emperor checked everything.

"Go back to the palace!" The Emperor's right hand fell heavily to his side, and he spat out the two words in a calm tone. The Emperor behaved calmly, but that was exactly what he did when he was angry.

Two guards were left behind in the compound to guard the doorman.

When they returned to the palace, they were much faster than when they came, and Wen Qiao and Wang Shun followed the emperor to the imperial study.

Before entering the gate of the imperial study, Wen Qiao heard the emperor say: "Xuanjiang City enters the palace!"

Wang Shun's footsteps stopped suddenly, he had been by the emperor's side for many years, and he had already mastered the emperor's thoughts and reactions when he was angry.

Knowing the emperor's mood at the moment, he didn't dare to delay, bowed down and bowed deeply to the emperor, and responded: "Yes."

At the emperor's command, the king turned around and changed the direction he was going after saluting. Wen Qiao's footsteps paused outside the door of the imperial study, he stared at the back of the emperor who had already walked inside, hesitated for a moment and followed in.

After entering the imperial study, the emperor did not change into civilian clothes, and as soon as he sat on the dragon chair, the momentum was instantly revealed.

No one dared to disobey his orders, no one dared to follow him. But today, there is such a person.

Wen Qiao was suppressed by the emperor's momentum, and he stood in silence directly below.

As time passed, Wen Qiao finally heard the sound of messy footsteps outside the door in the emperor's anger. During the period, a man's hurried voice was mixed, "What are you doing!"

Wen Qiao heard the voice and looked sideways, and Wang Shun, who followed at a glance, glanced at each other.

Wang Shun's eyes were calm, and when he heard the sound just now, Wen Qiao already knew who the person outside was.

"Your Majesty, Jiang Cheng has already brought." Wang Shun said to the emperor.

The Emperor's hand rested on the table in front of him, and he glanced out and said, "Bring him in."

Jiang Cheng was pushed in by two guards, and when he walked to the middle, he stumbled and was directly pushed to the ground by the two guards.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Jiang Cheng's tone gradually intensified, and his fallen body quickly knelt on the ground, but his head kept low, refusing to raise it for a minute.

The emperor looked at Jiang Cheng's embarrassed appearance and laughed funny, but in the next moment, his face changed instantly, and he glared at Jiang Cheng angrily, and his eyes seemed to be able to spew fire, "Jiang Cheng, you have done a great thing for me!"

"Your Majesty," Wen Qiao watched Jiang Cheng's body shake as he watched from the side, "Minister, Minister," Jiang Cheng repeated a few words, and finally only the tail sound of those words was in the imperial study.

He was arrested by the emperor again, he was not stupid, and Wen Qiao was also here, so he could know what happened with a little thought.

He knelt on the ground, his head bowed, his eyes closed fiercely in a place where the emperor and Wen Qiao couldn't see, and two lines of clear tears flowed spontaneously. The matter has come to this point, and no matter what he says, his end has already been decided.

"Crush him into the prison!" The Emperor shouted.

This time Jiang Cheng did not resist, the two guards pressed him again, and as soon as he raised his head, the emperor's eyes were so black that he couldn't see anything clearly.
