Chapter Seventy-Four: Driving Wolves and Tigers
Finally, Qin Wei read again: "Lu Sicheng! β
As soon as this name came out, most of the officials in the hall showed surprise on their faces, and even Li Zhengkun raised his head suddenly, looking at the man next to him incredulously.
Lu Sicheng, the commander of the Yamen of the Dusi Division, was only forty-three years old, and he was already a second-rank military attachΓ©, if he was given a few more years, he would definitely enter Beijing and enter the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and become a pivotal figure in the court.
The key is that Lu Sicheng is not only capable of this person, but also extremely powerful in cultivation, and now he has nine grades of cultivation.
Even Li Zhengkun intends to train him to be his cronies, and in fact, since Li Zhengkun came to Tianzhou City, he has always valued Lu Sicheng very much.
Even Lu Sicheng can have his current official position, which is supported by Li Zhengkun using the power of the Li family.
Lu Sicheng, who had a square face, couldn't help but show a helpless look when he heard this.
He first gave Li Zhengkun an apologetic look, then walked out of the queue and bowed to Qin Wei: "The lower official is guilty!" β
Qin Wei looked at him, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, "This king actually doesn't understand, why do you want to cooperate with the Bloody Cloak Building?" β
That's right, the standard crossbow arrows of the Bloody Clothes Building are from Lu Sicheng!
"Xia Guan didn't cooperate with the Bloody Clothes Building, Xia Guan was just a little involved with the black-faced landlord." Lu Sicheng said.
"And then?" Qin Wei asked.
"A year ago, the black-faced landlord asked for two thousand crossbow arrows from Xiaguan, and Xiaguan didn't expect that they would be used on His Highness." Lu Sicheng said.
Qin Wei bowed slightly, this can match the information collected by the Imperial City Division, a year ago, there was indeed a batch of crossbow arrows shipped out of the Zhenwu Division, but this batch of crossbow arrows should not have been aimed at Qin Wei, after all, Qin Wei had not accepted the favor at that time, and he was not in charge of the Zhenwu Division.
"What did that black-faced landlord grab you with?"
The black-faced landlord is the same as the Feiyu landlord, and is one of the four building owners of the Bloody Clothes Building.
"Xia Guan was a killer in the Bloody Cloak Building when he was young!" Lu Sicheng said very honestly.
Although he has outstanding martial arts talent, because he was born poor, he must not have become a peripheral killer of the Bloody Cloak Building when he was young.
Cultivating martial arts is an extremely expensive thing, and the higher the cultivation, the more money and resources are needed.
Ordinary people may be able to become warriors, but it is absolutely impossible to become martial artists above the third rank.
And the dark list and peripheral killer system of the Bloody Cloak Building have a great attraction to many warriors from poor backgrounds.
Just killing a person can get at least a thousand taels of silver, and this kind of business will naturally make many low-level martial artists rush to it.
If Lu Sicheng is just a martial artist now, he naturally doesn't need to care about these pasts.
But he is an official of the imperial court, and these pasts have become a handle for the black-faced landlord to control him.
Qin Wei looked at him, and then at Li Zhengkun.
Then he threw the paperwork in his hand to Li Zhengkun.
"I'll leave the rest to Master Li!"
Li Zhengkun took the two documents, his face was complicated and ugly.
He was angry because of Lu Sicheng's affairs, and he was angry because of the affairs of other officials.
As the immediate eldest grandson of the lineage, he looked down on those reckless rivers and lakes, but he didn't expect that these reckless rivers and lakes would actually buy most of the officials under him.
If Qin Wei hadn't come to Tianzhou City, he might have been played by the four major sects.
And Lu Sicheng, as the most trusted subordinate, also hid it from him.
"Your Highness, Sicheng is just being threatened~~"
He was silent for a long time, but he still wanted to intercede for Lu Sicheng.
Qin Wei got up and waved his hand, and said, "You can do it!" β
He still saved some face for Li Zhengkun and handed over the rest to Li Zhengkun to deal with.
Lu Sicheng is guilty, he has been a killer before, and he also gave the crossbow arrows of the Dusi Yamen to the Bloody Clothes Building, and the crime is enough to kill the head.
But after all, he didn't participate in the attack on Qingsi Garden, so Qin Wei was willing to save a little face for Li Zhengkun.
If Lu Sicheng participated in the attack on Qing Si Yuan, then he would definitely not let Lu Sicheng go.
As for the other matters of the Dusi Yamen, he no longer needs to worry about it.
The matter has come to this point, Li Zhengkun can only completely purge the Yamen of the Capital Division and the Seven Davids, otherwise what face does he have to be the commander of this capital!
The only thing that made Qin Wei feel sorry now was that those who released the crossbow arrows were not found, and hundreds of people disappeared into Tianzhou City out of thin air, which was extremely strange.
Those soldiers are not the people of the Dusi Yamen, nor are they ordinary warriors.
They can even get out of everyone's sight, appearing out of thin air and disappearing into thin air.
β¦β¦
After the affairs of the Dusi Yamen were handed over to Li Zhengkun, Qin Wei asked the soldiers of the Zhenwu Division to withdraw from Tianzhou City. And he himself returned to the Garden of Meditation.
The target of him and Zhen Wusi was those martial arts forces, and it was impossible to put a lot of energy on the Dusi Yamen.
Now what Qin Wei wants to do most is to kill the Bloody Cloak Building.
The Bloody Cloak House has already given him a big gift, so it's his turn to return the gift.
After returning to Qingsi Garden, Qin Wei immediately recruited Li Ru into the study.
"It's time for your strategy to drive away the wolves and tigers!"
In the study, Qin Wei sat behind the desk and said softly.
Li Ru stroked his sheep's horn beard and said with a smile: "Xiaguan is ready, you can start at any time." β
Qin Wei bowed his head slightly and said, "That's good." β
"I hope that this time I can completely solve the trouble of the bloody cloak building."
Driving wolves and tigers was the first plan Li Ru made when he was in Kyoto, the goal was to eliminate those sect forces that did not want to submit, and at the same time, it could also play a role in killing chickens and monkeys.
At first, Li Ru did not set the target on the Bloody Clothes Building, but after the Bloody Clothes Building issued a lore order, Qin Wei took the Bloody Clothes Building as the target of the wolf and tiger chase plan.
Li Ru said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the Bloody Cloak Building must be in a catastrophe this time!" β
"Well, let's get started!"
"When you send the letter, send this letter to the Heavenly Master's Mansion as well!"
Qin Wei took out a letter and handed it to Li Ru, which was the letter given to him by Emperor Lihuang before leaving Beijing.
"Whoa!"
Li Ru answered after receiving the letter, and then left the study.
Then he went back to his study and pulled out a large stack of letters.
"Hong Fei!"
"The lower official is here!"
"Send these letters to the major sects!" Li Ru gave the letter to Hong Fei.
There were a total of one hundred and thirty-three letters, each of which had already indicated its owner, almost including most of the sects in Tianzhou.
β¦β¦
Following.
The sky is high and the clouds are light.
One by one, letters were sent to the major sects of Tianzhou with the autumn wind.
Sanqing Mountain, Heavenly Master's Mansion, Celestial Master's Palace.
Hong Fei handed the two letters in his hand to the Heavenly Master.
The other letters were sent by Hong Fei's soldiers, but the letters from the Heavenly Master's Mansion were sent by Hong Fei himself.
The Heavenly Master opened the two letters and read them.
"The old man knows, you go back and report to His Royal Highness the King of the County, and the Heavenly Master's Mansion will act according to his wishes."
There was not the slightest fluctuation in the vicissitudes of life, as if the contents of these two letters were inconsequential trivialities.
Hong Fei bowed and said, "Then the junior will retire first!" β
The Old Heavenly Master bowed slightly, watching Hong Fei leave.
After Hong Fei left, Wen Su, who was standing next to him, couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart anymore and asked, "Master, what is this letter?" β
"Look at it!" The Celestial Master handed the letter to Wen Su.
Wen Su first looked at Emperor Li's handwritten imperial book, and his face was full of astonishment.
"Your Majesty is actually a disciple of our Heavenly Master's Mansion!"
In the letter, Emperor Lihuang referred to himself as a disciple and honored the Heavenly Master as his teacher.
In fact, the content is not important, just some ordinary words that ask for warmth, which can be said to be nonsense.
"Not really!" The old heavenly master looked at the light wind and clouds of the sky, and his eyes were deep and distant.
"Before Your Majesty ascended the throne, he lived in my Heavenly Master's Mansion for a year, and at that time he was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy."
"Your Majesty has not entered the Dao Gate of my Heavenly Master's Mansion, but has only studied the Taoist scriptures by the teacher's side for a period of time."
Wen Su's eyes widened, he didn't expect that the Heavenly Master's Mansion would have such a relationship with the current Lihuang.
"Look at the second letter!" The Celestial Master said softly.
The relationship between Emperor Lihuang and the Heavenly Master's Mansion is just some of the past, if Zhenwusi doesn't come to the Heavenly Master's Mansion, maybe no one will mention it again, because even if it is mentioned, it is meaningless.
The Heavenly Master's Mansion is just a folk martial arts force, although it is the representative force of the Dao Sect in the world, but compared with the high-ranking Lihuang, there is no comparison at all.
Moreover, the Heavenly Master is not a person who covets the power of Hongchen, and he will not use this relationship to seek benefits for the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Wen Su opened the second letter and looked.
His mouth was wide open, and his eyes were as wide as beads.
