On the way back to the Duwei Mansion from Yipinlou, Zhao Ning not only sent someone to notify Zhao Qiyue to come over, but also asked the messenger to meet Zhao Xuanji.

Except for Zhao Ning, Wei Wuxian, Zhao Qiyue and a few other people, Zhao Xuanji's appearance was beyond everyone's expectations, but when you think about it carefully, it is reasonable.

The word "reasonable" in reasonableness, the first time Liu Muzhi saw Zhao Xuanji, different guesses emerged in his heart. In his opinion, Zhao Xuanji's timely appearance was not just as simple as protecting the calf.

Zhao Xuanji entered the lobby of the main courtyard through the weeping flower gate, and sat on the main seat, as for Liu Muzhi, who had occupied this position before, he had been unceremoniously pushed away.

Zhao Xuanji is a first-class member of the imperial dynasty, although the governor is now powerful, only slightly weaker than the prime minister, but the dignity and humility are orderly, Liu Muzhi, a second-grade official, saw Zhao Xuanji, and there was no reason to occupy the main position anymore, and he was pulled away by Zhao Xuanji, and he could only bear it silently.

If his cultivation is comparable to Zhao Xuanji, he can still use the momentum of a civil official to express his dissatisfaction, but unfortunately, there is an essential gap between the realms of the two.

"Who is it that wants to bully others and attack the old man's eldest grandson? Now stand up and say your arrogance again in front of the old man!" Zhao Xuanji's tiger-like gaze swept over everyone.

Liu Muzhi's eyes were uncertain, and finally took a deep look at Jing Zhaoyin and Yushi, Jing Zhaoyin understood, gritted his teeth, and said in a fierce voice: "Zhenguo Gong, your status is noble, no one dares to offend, but at the moment, we are dealing with official affairs, and official affairs have their own charters......

Before he finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and his movements were so strong that he cracked the floor tiles under his knees!

His forehead was sweating like rain, and his whole body was trembling, as if he had malaria.

Of course, he didn't kneel down voluntarily, it was Zhao Xuanji who used cultivation as coercion to force him like this!

"What are you, and you have a part in speaking here?" Zhao Xuanji's voice was full of majesty and contempt.

"Zhenguo Gong, how can you be like this, where is the law of the imperial court......" Yu Shi just shouted, and also fell to his knees, not only that, but his head hit the floor tiles, and directly smashed the floor tiles and flew out a few pieces.

"When I saw my father, I didn't kneel down and salute, but I dared to speak out in front of my father, do you really think my father has no temper?" Zhao Xuan snorted coldly.

Now Jing Zhaoyin and Yushi are too busy to take care of themselves, and they are completely incapable of talking anymore, if not, they will definitely have to complain aggrievedly: as soon as Zhao Xuanji appeared, he used cultivation as a coercion, so shocked that they couldn't move, even if they wanted to bow down, they couldn't do it......

Shi Xuan looked at Jing Zhaoyin and Yushi who were kneeling in front of him in shock, and his heart turned upside down. He didn't expect Zhao Xuanji to behave so toughly as soon as he appeared, just like Zhao Ning! Liu Muzhi, Jing Zhaoyin and the others didn't use their cultivation power to directly deal with Zhao Ning before!

There was a gasping sound outside the courtyard gate again, and unlike before, this time there were also suppressed cheers and admiration, full of admiration for Zhen Guogong.

Liu Muzhi felt that his face was very hot, as if he had slapped someone hard, Zhao Xuanji treated Jing Zhaoyin and Yushi as inappropriate people in front of him, this was not just humiliating them, but also slapping him Liu Muzhi's face!

"Zhen Guogong, don't you think this is too much?" Liu Muzhi pointed to Jing Zhaoyin and the imperial history next to the ground, and asked Zhao Xuanji to give him an explanation.

Zhao Xuanji sneered: "They are rude to this father, shouldn't they be taught a lesson? This father is a military general, if he is reasonable, he will directly do it in person, but he will not play tricks and stab a knife in the back like you civil officials." If there is anything you are not convinced by the governor's affairs, if you are reasonable, say it and let the prince hear it. ”

Liu Muzhi's eyes were low, "This official came to the Duwei Mansion because he was on official business, and the Duwei Mansion innocently injured dozens of officials from the Jingzhao Mansion, and this official is the deputy prime minister of the imperial court, and he came to deal with it on the order of the prime minister, which is reasonable and well-founded! Dare to ask the Duke of Zhenguo, why are you here?"

Zhao Xuanji sneered, looking at Liu Muzhi's eyes, as if he was looking at a fool, "Have you forgotten that this duke is the governor of the Dadu Governor's Mansion, controlling the internal and external military, and commanding all the military yamen?

"As for beating the officials of Jingzhao Mansion for no reason, my father has already found out that it was Jingzhao Mansion that took the lead in Pingkangfang to make a move against a general flag of the Duwei Mansion, and then he still didn't let go of the door!

"Even if this matter is in front of Your Majesty, my father also wants to ask you Liu Muzhi, as well as Xu Xiang, who gave you the power to act recklessly?!"

Liu Muzhi was reprimanded by Zhao Xuanji, his face turned blue and purple, "You ......"

"Liu Muzhi! In front of this father, you dare to call you and me, where is the etiquette? In addition, you act so disregarding right and wrong, oppressing and making things difficult for the Governor's Mansion in every way, do you really not take this father seriously? Okay, you will enter the palace with this father, and this father wants to see how Your Majesty will deal with you and so on!"

Liu Muzhi was squirted violently by Zhao Xuanji, and he was speechless for a while. It's not that he is short of words, but he didn't expect that today's Zhao Xuanji would be so domineering.

He naturally didn't dare to enter the palace with Zhao Xuanji, after all, at the moment, Jingzhao Mansion and him really didn't take care of it. But the case of Pingkangfang Feixue Building, he must hold it in his hand, even if he ignores it, he has to fight for it.

In this short period of speechlessness, Liu Muzhi had a lot of thoughts and thought a lot. Zhao Xuanji's attitude today made him feel some kind of dangerous signal, and he was keenly aware that the overall situation involved behind this was probably not something he could deal with alone!

In the end, Liu Muzhi calmed down and tried his best to ease his tone: "Zhenguo Gong, since you have come forward in person, the lower officials have to show respect, the conflict between Jingzhao Mansion and the Duwei Mansion, we can put it aside for the time being-even if we want Jingzhao Mansion to apologize and punish some officials, it is not impossible, it is all for Your Majesty to share worries and fulfill our duties for the imperial dynasty, why should you and I be too stiff? Why don't we take a step back, you hand over the case of Pingkangfang to Jingzhao Mansion, and let the lower officials not come in vain, how about it?"

As soon as these words came out, many people were shocked.

Shi Xuan couldn't believe his ears: the second person in the civilian clique, who had always been unscrupulous and suppressed the military so much that he couldn't raise his head, actually bowed his head for the first time?

There was also a buzz outside the courtyard gate.

In the face of such generous exchange conditions, Zhao Xuanji laughed and said: "Jingzhao Mansion should have apologized, and it should also punish the officials who injured the general flag of the Duwei Mansion, as for the case of Pingkangfang, it was also handled by the Duwei Mansion first, why should it be given to Jingzhao Mansion?"

The attitude is clear, and he does not give in half a step.

Liu Muzhi's face changed several times, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhen Guogong, you don't give me half of your face, and force me to die......! For the sake of a little dispute, Zhen Guogong really plans to do this?"

The meaning of this is clear.

Zhao Xuanji does not save face for Liu Muzhi, the head of the Liu family, and let him be swept away, then the Liu family can only start an all-out war with the Zhao family! From now on, the two sides will fight each other everywhere in the officialdom, and he will also urge the civil official group to act together against the Zhao family!

Zhao Xuanji sneered: "Liu Muzhi, if you have the guts, let the horse come, is this father still afraid of you? Now, you take your people and get out of the Duwei Mansion for me immediately! If you go slowly, don't blame the Dugong and catch the lawbreakers who make trouble in the Duwei Mansion on the spot!"

Liu Muzhi gritted his teeth fiercely, turned around angrily, raised his feet and left.

At this point, he has been completely sure that Zhao Xuanji really wants to start a war with the civilian clique! The other party will lead the forces of Jiangmen to avenge the humiliation of being oppressed by civilian officials before! Today's incident is that Zhao Xuanji is playing on the topic, and it is the clarion call for the Jiangmen to counterattack the door!

At the height of Liu Muzhi's position, he will always base himself on the overall situation when considering problems, and will not think about anything very simply, this is because their status and power are enough to affect the affairs of the dynasty, and their every move full of deep meaning may make a huge change in the situation in the court!

Zhao Xuanji, as the first person in the military, has a reason to do this, and even has to do this! If it weren't for this, Zhao Xuanji's attitude today would definitely not be so strong, he would not be so unforgiving, and he would not leave him half a point of leeway!

"Stop. ”

When Jing Zhaoyin and Yushi got up one after another, Zhao Xuanji shouted an order, re-released the coercion, fixed the two of them in place, and said to Zhao Ning: "Zhao Zongqi, is there anything you want to say?"

Zhao Ning stepped forward with his fists clenched, looked at Jing Zhaoyin, who was "silent", his tone was indifferent, but he said loudly: "I still say the same thing, the officials of Jingzhao Mansion do not distinguish between right and wrong, black and white, such people can't handle big cases, so I hope that the people of Jingzhao Mansion will remember that from now on, I will take care of the cases that Jingzhao Mansion can manage, and I will take care of the cases that Jingzhao Mansion can't manage! If anyone is not satisfied, just come to the Yamen of the Governor's Mansion to see if I will be polite to him!"

Jing Zhaoyin's eyes were angry and miserable, and he barely looked at Liu Muzhi in front of him, but saw that Liu Muzhi had already strode out, and he didn't care about him at all, and his heart was suddenly full of desolation.

Jingzhao Mansion moved to participate in the governor's affairs, but they all suffered such a big loss in the Governor's Mansion, not to mention that they failed to achieve the purpose of taking away the case, and they were humiliated and driven out of the gate by others in every way, and if they want to raise their heads in front of the Governor's Mansion in the future, it will be difficult for a long time.

After Liu Muzhi, Jing Zhaoyin and the others left, Zhao Ning stood in front of Zhao Xuanji and said with an affectionate smile: "Grandfather, the big war has begun." ”

Previously, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, the highest yamen of the military, had never had a good response to the civilian suppression of the military, and Zhao Xuanji, the Metropolitan Governor, did not do much, which had caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the generals.

If not, there would not be so many people who would defect to the Sun family and stand on the same boat with each other.

In order to ensure their status, the Zhao family must start from now on, take action against the civilian officials, and achieve the fruits of victory, reunite the hearts of the military, and let the generals see the power of the Zhao family and stand by the Zhao family's side again!

"Liu Muzhi should not be underestimated, the Liu family is also the leader in the sect, they do their best, and it is not a simple matter to unite with other sects to deal with our Zhao clan. Zhao Xuanji said with a smile.

Zhao Ning also smiled, a little cruel, but more confident, "They won't have this time." ”
