Chapter 406: Conditions

The news of Liang Kun's arrest spread quickly, and in less than a stick of incense, Xiang Yan, the governor of Yuezhou, and Su Kang, the king of Yue, had already arrived.

Looking at the burned shipyard in front of them, the two frowned slightly, and on the way here, they got the news.

said that Liang Kun took the Yuezhou soldiers and wanted to kill people, but now he was taken by Su Qi'an, and now he is waiting for the two people with the highest power in Yuezhou to see how this matter is handled.

Ignoring the mess in the shipyard in front of him, Xiang Yan looked at Su Qi'an in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Dongshan Hou, what is going on, please give us an explanation."

Xiang Yan's tone was not good, and he was a little dissatisfied with Su Qi'an, the war in Yuezhou was not over yet, and it was only a few days, under their noses, such a big thing happened.

This is not deliberately adding fuel to the fire on his head, Xiang Yan can be happy, then it is strange.

Xiang Yan asked, and Su Qi'an sneered, "This matter is still best known to Vice General Liang, let him tell you about it."

Saying that, Liang Kun was tied up, brought it up again, and just took off the strip of cloth from his mouth, Liang Kun hurriedly said to Xiang Yan.

"Lord Governor, His Royal Highness King Yue, you have to be the master of your subordinates."

"Originally, my subordinates were recuperating from their injuries in the mansion, but suddenly learned that a private shipyard was on fire, in order to prevent any accidents. His subordinates hurried with their officers and soldiers."

"But as soon as I arrived, I was ambushed by the people of Dongshan Hou and captured me, intending to blame my subordinates for the disaster that happened here."

"This private shipyard has been investigated for a long time, and it was jointly built by local bandits and a certain marquis, in order to smuggle pirates and make huge profits."

"My lord, Your Highness, the person behind this shipyard is Su Qi'an, he was afraid that his subordinates would expose his conspiracy, so he set fire to the shipyard, deceived his subordinates, and took the opportunity to blame me, please Your Excellency and Your Highness take action to arrest Su Qi'an."

Liang Kun was very excited, spitting everywhere, and that expression looked as real as it looked.

watched Su Qi'an, and admired Liang Kun's acting skills.

Xiang Yan and Su Kang didn't say anything, but their brows were furrowed, and after listening to Liang Kun's words, Xiang Yan looked at Su Qi and said.

"Dongshan Hou, let's talk about it, what Vice General Liang said, is it true?"

"Hehe, Captain Yuezhou, Ben Hou is very suspicious of your brain, how did you sit in the position of the third-in-command of a state, is your brain in the water?"

Dongshan Hou, don't go too far! Don't think that you are a marquis, this lieutenant can't help you, answer my question head-on, what Liang Kun said, is it or not!"

Xiang Yan angrily scolded Su Qi'an, Xiang Yan's threat, Su Qi'an didn't care at all, he sneered.

"Hmph, Lord Xiang Yan doesn't just hope, what Liang Kun said is true, so that he can take down Ben Hou, since Lord Xiang Yan is so anxious, Ben Hou will fulfill you."

"Come on, bring the overseers and coolies, and let this Yuezhou Governor, Master Xiang, listen carefully, what Liang Kun said is true."

After a while, the controlled supervisors, as well as Xiao Si and the others, reappeared, and they opened their mouths and identified Liang Kun one after another.

But even with their identification, Liang Kun still refused to admit it and defended it.

"Master Xiang, don't listen to their nonsense, these people were all bought by Su Qi'an, so they will naturally point the finger at me, and please let your Excellency know it."

"Hehe, a good Mingjian, then good, bring Zhang Xiong to Benhou."

Hearing this, Liang Kun's face changed, not panicked, but rather happy in his heart.

He also thought that Su Qi'an had some hole cards, but he didn't expect it to be Zhang Xiong, who didn't know that Zhang Xiong was his henchman.

It is impossible to plot against him, and in this regard, Liang Kun is quite confident.

Under Liang Kun's gaze, Zhang Xiong was brought up, and Zhang Xiong looked calm at this time.

"I think this person, you are all strangers, the number one killer in Yuezhou, Zhang Xiong, tell me, who is the mastermind behind you."

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Xiong was silent for a while, and said in a low voice, "My master-behind is Vice General Liang Kunliang, and our task is to build a large number of ships when the war in Yuezhou occurs, trade and smuggle with pirates, and earn a lot of money."

"You're farting! big

People, he is not Zhang Xiong at all, he is fake, Su Qi'an deliberately found someone to frame me." Liang Kun was very excited and scolded directly.

"Oh, how do you know he's fake?" Su Qi'an said directly.

"Hmph, Zhang Xiong but..."

"But what?"

It was Su Qi'an's words that directly made Liang Kun's voice stagnate, as if he thought of something, his voice stopped abruptly, and he stopped talking about it in an instant.

"What Vice General Liang wants to say next should be that Zhang Xiong is your confidant, with what you know about him, how could he betray him, right?"

Su Qi'an smiled and said Liang Kun's unfinished words lightly, and Liang Kun's face was obviously much paler this time.

He wanted to quibble, and planned to continue to grit his teeth and insist, refusing to admit it, Xiang Yan, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke at this time.

"Come on, take Liang Kun to the official and take him down, and wait for the fate."

"My lord, my subordinates have been wronged..."

Liang Kun shouted, not to mention that Xiang Yan was indifferent to Liang Kun's grievances, even the ordinary soldiers present.

When it comes to this, no one who can be present is a fool, who can guess that Liang Kun is lying.

Even if Liang Kun has nothing to do with Zhang Xiong, the shipyard that was burned down by a fire must be related to Liang Kun.

After dealing with Liang Kun, Xiang Yan glanced at Su Qi'an coldly, and then said coldly, "This matter is really troublesome Dongshan Hou, now that the mastermind behind the scenes has been taken down, this matter has ended, and they are all dispersed."

After speaking, Xiang Yan wanted to take people away, but this time he wanted to disperse like this, but it was not as simple as last time.

Just as Xiang Yan just left, Su Qi'an's sneering voice sounded, "Hehe, it is worthy of being the governor of Yuezhou, anything in the hands of the governor can be turned into a big thing and a small thing, which really makes Ben Hou admire."

"I don't know if the governor has the ability to suppress this matter."

Xiang Yan was stunned, turned around, looked at Su Qi'an with an indifferent face, and said coldly, "What, is Dongshan Hou threatening this captain?"

"Hehe, I don't dare to threaten, but well, Lord Xiang's subordinates have a mouthful of Su Qi'an, and they really don't take Ben Hou seriously."

"Could it be that the military generals of Yuezhou are so big and small? Regard the dignity and nothingness of the Hou?"

"If the identity of the Marquis of Dongshan is nothing in your eyes, then what about the descendants of King Yong'an, the descendants of the royal family!"

"Ben Hou wants to ask Lord Governor a word, is this Yuezhou the territory of the Daliang Imperial Family, or is it because you are very disdainful of the children of the royal family, do you want to stand on your own!"

Su Qi'an's series of questions suddenly stunned Xiang Yan.

Not to mention him, even Su Kang on the side had a deep surprise in his eyes.

I think a lot more highly of Su Qi'an in my heart, don't think that what Su Qi'an just said is just a small problem.

But with the help of Liang Kun's matter, he directly made a big fuss, and suddenly rose to the level of blasphemy against the dignity of the children of the royal family, and even whether he had a disobedient heart.

It stands to reason that the governors of each state are more or less contemptuous of the declining royal family, and they all have the intention of self-reliance in their hearts.

But this is what is in the heart after all, no one dares to say it directly on the table, let alone be questioned directly on the table by the handle.

Therefore, the state pastors of all states are basically very cautious in their way of speaking, for fear that they will suddenly say the wrong thing and be manipulated all of a sudden.

It's a pity that although Xiang Yan is a state lieutenant, he is in charge of all military power in Yuezhou during the war.

But when he encountered Su Qi'an, a difficult opponent, he was suddenly grabbed by him and used the topic to play, even if Xiang Yan reacted, it was not so easy to get through.

And at this juncture, Su Kang, who has been watching a drama on the side, also spoke suddenly.

"Dongshan Hou's words, this king agrees, Lord Xiang, although during the Yuezhou war, you were the supreme commander, but your subordinates are so big and small, and they don't have half respect for the children of the royal family, this is not a small problem, does this represent the desecration of the royal family by Yuezhou officials?"

"Master Xiang, this

If there is no reasonable explanation, according to this king, the officials of this Yue Prefecture should be replaced."

If Su Qi'an's previous words were played with excuses, then Su Kang's words directly put the problem on the ground, and even went further, wanting to change the blood of Yuezhou officialdom.

If this is the case, Xiang Yan is almost the same as Commander Guang Gong, and he knows that Su Kang has been waiting for this opportunity.

Unexpectedly, Liang Kun was so stupid, he was directly grabbed by Su Qi'an, and fought back instantly, if he didn't handle it well, Xiang Yan would probably be planted in Su Qi'an's hands.

At this time, Xiang Yan no longer had any intention to scold Liang Kun's waste, his eyes flashed, and finally lowered his posture and whispered to Su Kang and Su Qi'an.

"Your Royal Highness, Su Hou, this matter is due to the lax discipline of this official, please rest assured, Liang Kun will be dismissed from all official positions and imprisoned from now on, if you are not satisfied, you will be killed or exiled, and everything will be up to Your Highness and Su Hou."

I have to say that Xiang Yan was still willing to give up his capital at a critical moment, sacrificing a Liang Kun to preserve the entire Yuezhou officialdom and his position, everything was worth it.

If it was placed in peacetime, this kind of treatment, Su Qi'an might have done this, but this time he was to pacify the war in Yuezhou.

Finally seized such an opportunity, Su Qi'an couldn't let it go easily, not to mention anything else, he was treated as a cow and horse, and ten days of work was not something that Liang Kun could make up for by his dismissal, which was far from enough.

Looking at Xiang Yan with a sincere face, Su Qi'an said softly, "Lord Xiang's decisive handling is admired by Ben Hou, but in Ben Hou's opinion, a Liang Kun does not have such great energy, he can collude with pirates, and he can still do business."

"And Lord Xiang really thinks that there is only one such private shipyard in the border of Yuezhou? I'm afraid adults won't believe it, but if you continue to investigate, I think..."

Su Qi'an didn't finish speaking, his eyes looked at Xiang Yan with a somewhat playful look.

Xiang Yanren was old and refined, so he naturally understood what Su Qi'an meant, and hurriedly said, "Please also ask Su Hou to give me a direction."

"It's very simple, two conditions, one is that the officialdom of Yuezhou has to be cleaned up, and the second is that the supreme commander of Yuezhou during the war, Ben Hou is very interested."
