Chapter 86: What's Wrong with Qingzhou?
[According to the emperor's request, you secretly went to Qingzhou. 】
[After your secret visit, you found that the entire Qingzhou officialdom is particularly serious in corruption, and the officials protect each other, especially in the matter of grain reserves, their caliber is particularly unified, which gives you a headache. 】
[You used some means and finally figured out the truth. 】
[The entire Qingzhou grain reserve is indeed empty, not only Qingzhou City, but most of the Qingzhou counties are involved in this matter. 】
[You know very well that this matter is undoubtedly a big earthquake. 】
[You originally planned to enter Qingzhou City and collect evidence from Qingzhou Taishou Zhang Qi, but considering that the strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake, Zhang Qi is powerful, so there is really no need to take risks! ] Besides, Emperor Xuan once explained that Qingzhou City could not go and return as soon as possible. 】
[So, you plan to return to the capital and report this matter to the emperor.] 】
[At this moment, the dragon guard urgently sent an order, asking you to show your identity as supervising the imperial history, stay in the Qingzhou City Post House, and investigate Qingzhou, especially Qingzhou City, openly. 】
[This order makes you a little puzzled, but you still follow Emperor Xuan's request, stay in the Qingzhou Post House openly, and start to inspect the Qingzhou City Government. 】
[Soon, Zhou Zhenwen's biography came to your hands. 】
[At this time, you understand Emperor Xuan's intentions. 】
[Your main job is to delay time, paralyze Zhang Qi and the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom, and wait for the master of the Worship Hall to come, kill Zhang Qi, and prevent the rebellion in Qingzhou. 】
[After understanding the intention, you know what to do!] 】
[You began a large-scale investigation, focusing on corruption in Qingzhou, and skillfully avoided the inspection of grain reserves......]
[Until one night, you heard the sound of a fierce fight, coming from the palace, and you knew in your heart that it was the master of the worship hall who had arrived. 】
[The next day, news came out from the Qingzhou City Government that a thief attacked Zhang Qi Taishou last night, and was forced to retreat by the officers and soldiers of the government office, and the whole city searched for the thief. 】
[You know that the Sect Master of the Worship Hall has missed, and you are anxious, but there is no other way, you are also worried that Zhang Qi will jump over the wall in a hurry and rebel directly! ] 】
[You communicate with Zhou Xiu, the commander of the Dragon Guard, hoping that he will take the first step to control the Qingzhou army and prevent their cavalry from rebelling. 】
[But this move was rejected by Zhou Xiu.] 】
[Zhou Xiu: Lord Feng, my task is to protect your safety and complete the things Your Majesty has assigned, which does not include controlling the Qingzhou army, do you know how many soldiers and horses there are in Qingzhou City? Once I make a move on the Qingzhou soldiers and horses, he will be exposed immediately, and he can even deal with me like he did with the Sect Master of the Worship Palace! It's too risky, and I won't do it! 】
[You: The soldiers are in danger, in the current situation, even the martial arts master of the worship hall can't kill Zhang Qi, and now he can only take a risk! I have a token given by His Majesty, and I can cut first and then mobilize my troops and horses! You take this token and go to the Qingzhou camp! 】
[Zhou Xiu also fell silent when he looked at the gold medal, this matter is too risky! ] Even if he has a gold medal, he is not sure to control the Qingzhou army, this is Zhang Qi's territory, and the Qingzhou soldiers and horses are all Zhang Qi's people...... He had no chance of winning at all. 】
[Zhou Xiu: Wait, maybe there is someone who can help us with this. 】
[You: Who?] 】
[Zhou Xiu: When the Sect Master of the Worship Hall came to Qingzhou, I had contact with them, and they mentioned that His Majesty confessed that there was a general named Wu Yong, who had followed Zhang Qi for many years and knew a lot of Zhang Qi's insiders. 】
[You: Okay, then it's decided, how do you need me to cooperate?] 】
[Zhou Xiu: You don't have to do anything, continue to stabilize Zhang Qi, he can't find the Worship Hall Grandmaster, he will definitely use other means! ] When he was distracted, we first controlled the Qingzhou army, which is a great achievement! 】
[You: Okay.] 】
Empress Liang looked at this scene and bowed slightly: "Wu Yong is a person with great ambition and unscrupulous means, and he can indeed be used!" ”
"If you can control the Qingzhou army through Wu Yong, you have indeed made a great contribution!"
But Empress Liang Zhao knew in her heart that the Sect Master of the Worship Hall had missed, proving that the Grandmaster of the Heavenly Wolf Country had also arrived in Qingzhou.
In this case, if they rashly move the Qingzhou army, it is very likely that they will become the target of the attack of the Heavenly Wolf Country Grandmaster.
Attacked by the grandmaster, the result speaks for itself......
"It's still a bit reckless for them!"
Empress Liang watched the changes in the simulator screen and waited for the outcome of the matter.
[The next day, Zhou Xiu, the dragon guard, quietly took down Wu Yong, and under the coercion and temptation, he chose to cooperate, and Zhou Xiu and I rushed to the Qingzhou camp overnight. 】
[On the way, suddenly the wind blew fiercely, thunder and lightning increased, and the torrential rain poured down, you and Zhou Xiu, Wu Yong and others withstood the torrential rain, went out of the city overnight, and rushed to the Qingzhou army. 】
[With your status as the minister of the Qincha, you cooperated with Wu Yong and the imperial gold medal to successfully control the Qingzhou camp. 】
[You don't dare to return to Qingzhou City, for fear of Zhang Qi's retaliation, and even more afraid of the attack of the Grandmaster of the Heavenly Wolf Country, this night, you can't sleep all night. 】
[Early in the morning, a news came out of the city that Zhang Qi was dead! 】
[You: What? How can it be? 】
"What?"
"Zhang Qi is actually dead?"
"How is this possible?"
Empress Liang Zhao was shocked, she sent two grandmasters from the worship hall, but they didn't take down Zhang Qi, and they died so inexplicably?
She couldn't understand who actually did it?
Zhou Zhenming is clearly in the capital, is there any other grandmaster in the Great Wilderness?
[Due to Zhang Qi's bizarre death, coupled with the fact that you controlled the Qingzhou camp, the Qingzhou rebellion that should have occurred was completely quelled. 】
[You also know from the mouth of the worship grandmaster Liu Dao that there is a mysterious master who killed the two grandmasters of the Heavenly Wolf Country with the power of one person! 】
[Liu Dao said that this person's strength is far beyond him, and I am afraid that he has already touched the threshold of the great grandmaster. 】
[You are shocked, Grand Master? Isn't this an existence beyond Taizu? 】
"Grand Master?"
"The Great Wilderness actually has an existence close to the Great Grandmaster?"
Empress Liang Zhao suddenly had a little numb scalp, and the Great Wilderness Martial Arts was weak, which was almost recognized.
But in fact, the former Great Wilderness Martial Arts was extremely strong, and the martial arts heroes were born in large numbers, and they were not afraid of death, in order to find a breakthrough in the road of the Great Grandmaster, one after another!
Until Taizu appeared and ruled the world, he was worried that the strength of the martial arts would threaten the rule of the Great Wilderness, so he ordered that the martial arts master should not walk the rivers and lakes unless he encountered the threat of destroying the door.
Those who violate the order are complicit!
As soon as this ban came out, the Great Wilderness Martial Arts was in an uproar, and many martial arts people wanted to protest, but because of the strength of the Great Wilderness and Emperor Taizu, they finally chose to compromise.
Next is the long period of heavy literature and martial arts, due to the short life of the grandmaster, coupled with the inability to walk the rivers and lakes and participate in battles, resulting in more and more martial arts masters, who would rather become the gang leader and elder of the third grade, rather than break through the second-grade grandmaster and become a titular Taishang elder and former gang leader.
Empress Liang Zhao actually knew about the maladministration of the Great Wilderness Martial Arts, but she was powerless to change it, and she couldn't change the status quo now.
"Once the ban is completely lifted, with the current number of Sect Masters of the Worship Hall, it will not be able to suppress the Great Wilderness Martial Arts at all."
"The number of Great Wilderness Grandmasters is indeed scarce, but the number of three grades is not small, once they choose to be promoted, even if they only have one-tenth success, they will be a group of extremely terrifying forces!"
"The current wilderness can't withstand a little wind and waves!"
"It's better to ask for stability, it's okay like this, although I don't know who violated the ban, but it's also a good thing to be able to kill the Grandmaster of the Heavenly Wolf Country!"
Empress Liang Zhao carefully analyzed the gains and losses, and found out that she made a lot of money in this matter!
Without paying anything, he solved the grandmaster of the Heavenly Wolf Country!
It's the best of both worlds!
At this moment, Empress Liang Zhao didn't know that Zhou Xiong was dead, if she knew, she would probably applaud and ridicule fiercely.
[You returned to the capital to report on your work, you made a great contribution, and as a matter of course, you were rewarded, your official position was promoted, and you became the imperial history of Zuo Du, and the official reached the fourth grade. 】
[You began to work diligently, until the Queen Mother suddenly died violently, and Zhou Zhenwen proposed to carry out the free trade zone plan in the early dynasty......]
