Chapter 345: Encountering Robbers on the Road
After staying at the post station for one night, when the sun rose, everyone had breakfast and went to the capital again.
"Master Hou, according to your merits, it was enough to be crowned a prince, if it weren't for the marshal to get in the way, even if you didn't become a king, you would be canonized as a duke by Your Majesty." Xu Fu said in a low voice.
Not in the mood to deal with the battle between the DPRK and China, Chen Yu turned his mind and asked with a cooperative expression: "Gonggong Xu, Ben Hou and the marshal have never met, and there is no grudge in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, why does he want to target me?" ”
"This invasion of the Hu people, Han Fei, the governor of Dasheng Pass, annihilated 500,000 Hu people, and only then did he change from a viscount to an earl, and the governor of Han was a ......descendant of Marshal Qin Yu," Xu Fu explained.
"I see." Chen Yu nodded thoughtfully.
"The marshal is in a high position and powerful, if the marquis is not necessary, do not make a head-on enemy with the marshal." Xu Fu said.
"As long as he doesn't mess with me, I'll treat him as if he doesn't exist." Chen Yu said disappreciatively.
Seeing this situation, Xu Fu was overjoyed, as a close confidant of His Majesty, it was his responsibility to clear the obstacles for His Majesty.
Whether it is a civilian official or a military general, only about 20% are truly loyal to His Majesty.
Forty civil officials are loyal to the left prime minister Liu Shouyi, and four civil officials are loyal to the right prime minister Dai Rende.
Of the nine governors, six are loyal to the Taishi, and only three are loyal to His Majesty.
The eight governors of the Great Xia Empire were all confidants of Marshal Qin Yu.
Taishou is in charge of a prefecture, and all the soldiers of the prefectures and counties, but a metropolitan governor is in charge of an army of 100,000.
The strength of the generals is out of balance, and as a close confidant of His Majesty, he should give the marshal a few more enemies.
In the territory of the Great Xia Empire, there are not even innate masters in the rivers and lakes, and there are only three innate martial artists officially.
Taishi Wang Zhenqian, Marshal Qin Yu, and Wolf Guard Commander Zhou Hong are all peerless powerhouses in the early stage of congenital development.
Under the three-legged stand, killing Marshal Qin Yu will cheapen the Taishi Wang Zhenqian.
Kill the Taishi Wang Zhenqian, it's no wonder if Marshal Qin Yu doesn't rebel!
The congenital strong are not easy to kill, and the innate strong people with high and powerful positions are even more difficult to kill.
Pulling a hair and moving the whole body, forced to be helpless, the eight governors are all marshals' people, and the six Taishou are all Taishi's people.
Install a few generals and divide the power of the metropolitan governor?
Being on the border of the Great Xia Empire, as long as the generals who were installed in the past were not congenitally strong, they would sacrifice their lives for the country in less than three months.
The six Taishou under the Taishi are not soft-hearted, and the people who have been installed by the emperor in the past will be poisoned by people as long as they make the slightest move, as for the murderer? Just find a dead person to replace him, and no one can find fault with it.
The current world is a mid-to-low-level martial arts world, and cultivators can cultivate up to the early stage of innate cultivation.
The incomparably powerful innate true qi is far from being comparable to the internal strength of the acquired martial artist, and the idle poison has no effect on the innate martial artist.
The marshals and princesses who are high and powerful and have many subordinates are not removed by the emperor if he wants to.
The prime minister is not an easy person, as the leader of the scholars, when they open their mouths, there are countless scholars, who are not afraid of death to give them their lives.
Although there are no soldiers and horses on the left and right prime ministers, the tongue of the scholar is far sharper than the sword.
The sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes believe in happiness and revenge, but no matter who you are, in order to make a name for yourself, they can assassinate anyone.
The ability of scholars to reverse black and white is far beyond those soldiers.
Under the three of you become a tiger and everyone is golden, even if you are a loyal person who defends your family and country, you will be turned into a traitor with a heinous crime by thousands of scholars......
Officialdom has the rules of the game of officialdom, and as long as you are caught, you may become a criminal who is spurned by the world.
Of course, many times, in order to balance the situation, the emperor turned a blind eye until a replacement was found.
The group walked along the official road, not fast or slow.
More than an hour later, the sound of swords clashing and yelling came from far and near.
"Let's see how it goes." Xu Fu turned around and said.
"Yes, Archmaster." The eunuch Li Guiquan nodded in response, and rode away as fast as the wind.
"How?" Seeing that the other party came back, Xu Fu asked.
"Chief, in the valley ahead, there is a group of bandits robbing a caravan." Li Guiquan said.
"Like jade and snow, go and kill those bandits." Chen Yu said.
"Yes, sir." Zhang Ruyu and Zhang Yuxue nodded in response, and rushed out on horseback.
"You're going to help, too!" Xu Fu said.
"Yes!" The four eunuchs answered in unison and galloped away on horseback.
In the past, when he encountered similar situations, Chen Yu almost always had nothing to do with himself, and he didn't know who was who was wrong, so he rarely helped.
Now as the prefect of the Northwest Province, all affairs in the Northwest Province are within his jurisdiction.
The bandits robbed the caravan in the Northwest Province, obviously because they couldn't get along with him, the prefect, and their behavior was tantamount to looking for death!
The four eunuchs ran to the valley, but they saw that they were like jade and snow, chopping melons and vegetables, and killing one thief after another on the spot.
"Grandpa Li, do we still want to do it?" A eunuch asked dumbfounded.
"Where do we need to do it? Unexpectedly, Hou Ye's two maids are both peerless masters at the innate level. Li Guiquan said in disbelief and sighing.
Ruyu Ruxue turned around and returned, and said respectfully: "Master, all the thieves are dead." ”
"Hmm!" Chen Yu nodded.
"Thank you for saving your life, two heroines, and I've met a few adults." The person in charge of the caravan said with a grateful and polite expression.
"No need to be polite, you buried the body." Chen Yu answered, and said, "Let's go!" ”
When night fell, they settled down at a post station.
"Boss." Li Guiquan knocked on the door.
"Come in." Xu Fu said.
"The chief manager, the two maids of the Hou Ye are both peerless masters of the innate realm." Li Guiquan said in a low voice.
Xu Fu was shocked in his heart, and pretended to be calm and asked, "Really?" ”
"My subordinates saw with their own eyes that Hou Ye's two maids, three feet away, killed several thieves in the air." Li Guiquan said.
"Tell me to go down, and no one is allowed to divulge this." Xu Fu said that the Great Xia Empire only has three congenitals, and there are only five congenitals on the rivers and lakes, and there are many benefits to the sudden appearance of two congenitals, and if you use it a little or pretend not to know.
Three days later, in the morning, the crowd was surrounded by a group of horse thieves.
"Leave the money and the women, and the rest will get out." A masked horse thief shouted.
Both bandits and horse thieves are robbers, but the difference between the two is that horse thieves have horses and bandits do not have horses.
"Kill them all!" Chen Yu said.
Two maids and five foreign girls responded in unison, pulled out their long swords and rushed out.
"Innate, all innate, withdraw, withdraw!" The leader of the horse thieves shouted in horror.
Xu Fu's heart was shocked, he thought that the other party only had two innates, but he didn't expect that those five foreign girls were also peerless masters at the innate level.
In less than five minutes, more than 60 masked bandits were killed by Ruyu Ruxue.
"I didn't expect that there were so many peerless masters under Master Hou." Xu Fu said enviously.
"A little strength, not enough." Chen Yu said disapprerovingly, it doesn't take much money to recharge a congenital martial artist, and he doesn't want to do everything himself, so he uses money to make Ruyu Ruxue and them all innate martial artists.
Seeing that the other party didn't care, Xu Fu secretly smacked his tongue, and after a few seconds of silence, he turned around and said, "Dispose of the corpse." ”
"Yes!" One by one, the eunuchs nodded and began to bury the bodies.
