Chapter XXIV. Persecution
The reason why Wei Ji pointed the finger directly at Wang County Lieutenant was because this Wang County Lieutenant was a member of Chen Lei's family, and judging from the various actions of King Qin today, King Qin undoubtedly wanted to weaken Chen Lei's influence in Qin State, and even directly drive him out of Qin State.
And since he wants to sell well, he naturally has to follow King Qin's wishes.
The goal of driving Chen Lei out of the Qin State is obviously not easy to achieve, but it can still be done to weaken Chen Lei's influence in the entire Qin State, especially after he has left a flaw.
Seeing that County Lieutenant Wang admitted it so simply, Wei Ji did not continue to entangle, but turned elsewhere.
"Those thieves can freely enter and exit Yangzhai, and they are not afraid of searching, their talismans must be forged, if they can find their talismans, they can know where the talismans were issued, and they should be able to find out some people. ”
The talisman is the identity of the people, issued by the county where they are located, without which it is difficult to move an inch in the empire.
The talisman generally records the holder's name, age, place of origin, appearance, and the general things he carries, so that as long as he finds the talisman of Zhang Jia and others, it can be determined who issued it.
Jiang Ji nodded: "What Wei Fu said is very true, I have already handed over this matter to Feng Shaofu to deal with." ”
"It turns out that the king has already made arrangements, and he is too talkative. ”
"Wei Fu's words are reasonable, how can he be too talkative?"
Jiang Ji didn't know how Wei Ji would suddenly help him, but it wasn't a bad thing.
If Wei Ji really helped, then the three people with the highest status in the Qin State, two of them were on his side, and that would undoubtedly suppress Chen Lei.
In the future, as long as you slowly find an opportunity to weaken it, and finally elevate it or drive it out of the Qin State, you can control the entire Qin State.
However, it remains to be verified whether Wei Ji really intends to stand on his side, and the most important thing now is now.
Jiang Ji glanced at the people in the hall one by one, and then said: "It is not only Chen Xiang and Wang County Lieutenant who are derelict in the city, but there may also be people who secretly communicate with thieves. ”
"If someone is willing to resign and leave, Lone can pardon his crime and not pursue it. ”
"And if it is found by Lonely, then it will raze the nine clans!"
Jiang Ji didn't care what their reaction was, and his eyes fell on Lieutenant Wang: "Lieutenant Guo's dereliction of duty is thoroughly investigated by Lieutenant Guo, what does Chen Xiang think?"
Chen Lei knew that King Qin was afraid that he would shield Wang County Lieutenant, but he couldn't speak out against it, after all, the lieutenant was already in charge of the military and public security in Qin, and Wang County Lieutenant could also be said to be under his control, and there was no problem with handing it over to Guo Qu for trial.
"This is naturally feasible, but Lieutenant Guo was injured, and I'm afraid he can't do it now. ”
Jiang Ji had already expected Chen Lei's struggle, he could have asked Chen Lei to investigate, and then find trouble with County Lieutenant Wang, and he could also implicate Chen Lei with this.
However, Chen Lei is not a fool, he will definitely take precautions in this regard, and it will be difficult to hit him with this, so it is better to take down Wang County Lieutenant first.
This move can not only deter Chen Lei's people, but also take this opportunity to see if he can find some of Chen Lei's handles, and at the same time, Guo Qu can smoothly take over the city of Yangzhai City, occupy an absolute upper hand in force, and it will be easier to control the whereabouts of Chen Lei's family in the future. It's a lot of work.
"This Chen Xiang doesn't have to worry, Lieutenant Guo has excellent skills, but he has only suffered some minor injuries, and now it is estimated that he has recovered, and the trial is still easy. ”
Chen Lei had no reason to shirk again, he didn't dare to look at the eyes of Wang County Lieutenant for help, and said with a smile: "That's good, this matter is handed over to Lieutenant Guo, Lei is relieved." ”
This is Wei Ji who spoke again: "Your Majesty, don't bother the two masters, and check whether there are any other people's affairs, and leave them to Lieutenant Guo." ”
Jiang Ji looked at Chen Lei, he didn't have the right to decide these things, and even if this matter didn't involve him, he didn't have the right to interfere at all.
Chen Lei secretly scolded Wei Ji in his heart, but on the surface, he smiled and said: "What Wei Fu said is very true. ”
"When the matter is over, let everyone disperse, and I will not leave you to eat. ”
...... Love 999
When!
The valuable utensils were thrown to the ground by Chen Lei.
"Yellow-haired child, there are too many people, and Wei Ji, an old horseman, one day, I will make you look good. ”
Thinking of what happened in King Qin's palace just now, the more Chen Lei thought about it, the more angry he became, he picked up a vase in his hand and smashed it on the ground, and the fragments were splashed.
"Why should the prime minister be like this, the people behind that group of assassins are obviously not ordinary, we just need to watch the show quietly, since King Qin has exposed his strength, then he will have no way to live next time. ”
Chen Lei's constantly undulating chest calmed down a little, he looked at the staff who was talking about it, and frowned: "King Qin has already taken precautions, and with his strength, ordinary people can't help him at all, unless those assassins directly send a master of the Law Body Realm, there is no hope at all." ”
"And the assassins' actions are slapping the entire empire in the face, the assassins don't make a move, otherwise they will face the retaliation of the entire empire, in this case, what do the people behind the assassins dare to do?"
It is precisely because he understands in his heart that Chen Lei can only be incompetent and furious, eat this dumb loss, and face the constant blows of King Qin in the future.
"Not necessarily, does the Prime Minister know who is behind the assassins?"
Chen Lei was a little impatient in the face of the staff's betrayal, but he could still tolerate this long-time think tank.
"Who is it?"
"The High Priest of the Witch God Sect. ”
"What!"
Chen Lei was shocked, he knew more about the Witch God Sect than ordinary people, and it was because of this that he also knew better about the horror of the Witch God Sect.
"If it's the Witch God Cult, it's really possible to strike again, those people are crazy. ”
Chen Lei seemed to have thought of something, and his body was full of excitement, and then he looked at his staff: "How do you know?
The staff smiled: "Because I have seen the divine weapon in the hands of the assassin, and the Thunder God Scepter is a thing of the Witch God Cult, so I am sure that the assassin is sent by the Witch God Sect." ”
"As for whether King Qin knows, judging from the news he got before, he shouldn't know, after all, the living mouth has been wiped out. ”
Chen Lei breathed a long sigh of relief: "If that's the case, then there will be a good show to watch after that." ”
"It's just that there are a number of masters in the whole world of the Law Body Realm, no matter who the Witch God Sect is, I'm afraid they will all die in the end, and it will also affect the Witch God Sect itself, is King Qin worthy of the Witch God Sect to do this?"
The staff replied confidently: "As long as the master of the Dharma Body realm is decisive enough, and after killing people, he can go to sea decisively and save his life." ”
"And now that the Daewoo Empire is already shaky, the son may not be willing to make a big move today, maybe for him, it is a good thing to lose King Qin. ”
Chen Lei was a little puzzled: "It's a matter of the face of the empire, even if the Witch God Sect is widely implicated, it is impossible to retreat today, right?"
"There are some things that can be said, and instead of caring about these things that have not yet happened, the prime minister should think about how to get through this period smoothly. ”
Although he felt that this staff member who was very trusted in the past was a little strange, Chen Lei did not delve into it, but followed the words of the staff and said: "Guo Qu, this reckless man, seems to have taken refuge in King Qin, and Wei Ji, an old horseman, reminded me a few days ago that this time he actually stood directly opposite me, it must be because of King Qin's performance yesterday, which made him want to show favor to King Qin." ”
"The grass on the wall, in vain, I used to think it was quite a backbone, but now it seems to be just his disguise. ”
Looking at Chen Lei, who had deviated from the question again, the staff shook their heads helplessly: "With the relationship between the prime minister and the eldest prince, King Qin will definitely not tolerate you, if this matter involves you now, he will definitely not show mercy, so it is better to strike first?"
"What do you mean?"
Chen Lei gestured with his hand on his neck.
A cold light flashed in the staff member's eyes, and he nodded heavily.
