Volume 1: Born to be a Hero Chapter 181: Fake and Fake (3)
Jia Shao tied up Fan Yu and sent him to prison overnight.
He Yi let people ignite a small number of banana leaves in the prison, and forcibly stuffed a ball of broken leaves into Fan Yu's mouth, and after making sure that the spiritual power in the other party's body had been completely blocked, he took a basin of cold water and poured it on Fan Yu's head suddenly.
Wow!
Fan Yu shook his head violently and woke up.
Seeing He Yi and the others on the other side, as well as the cold iron ropes wrapped around him, he immediately began to struggle constantly.
He wanted to mobilize his spiritual power to cast an immortal spell, but he found that the spiritual power in his body was as silent as a stagnant water, and he couldn't wake it up no matter what.
"Uh......h Woo!"
Fan Yu fell into despair, but his mouth was blocked, and he could only let out a frightened and unwilling whimper from his throat.
......
Soon after, Liao Qianzhong pushed over a rack containing a large number of torture instruments, and ordered someone to bring a pot of burning charcoal, and the soldering iron inside was burned red and white, which was dazzling.
He took the soldering iron out of the brazier and slowly shook it in front of Fan Yu's eyes, and the hot temperature suddenly made the other party exclaim.
"Lord, do you want to be tortured?" asked Liao Qianzhong in a low voice.
This thing can only be used on mortal prisoners in normal times, and it has no effect on cultivators at all, but now Fan Yu's spiritual power is blocked, and he can't expand his body protection aura, so he is no different from mortals.
He really wanted to try it out and use this thing for cultivators......
He Yi waved his hand and signaled that he didn't need to.
Since Liao Qian chose to sing red face, he can only sing white face.
After all, He Yi was still counting on prying some reports from his mouth, if he really tortured this guy, it might have a negative effect.
"I won't torture you anymore, let's be honest!Who are you, why do you want to pretend to be the envoy of Lord Zhou Mu?" He Yi reached out and took off the thing that blocked Fan Yu's mouth and asked.
"I'm really the messenger of Yuan Zhenzhou Mu! My lord, the lower official has a stamped document, and I will never lie to you!" Fan Yu hurriedly said, turning his head to look at Gongliangju on the side: "I have already shown this adult, it's true!"
"Hugh is nonsense!"
He Yi saw that the other party still wanted to quibble, and immediately became furious, and said sharply: "Don't think I don't know, it's been nearly two years since Yuan Zhenzhou Mu disappeared, I'm afraid he has already been killed, how can he personally appoint an envoy?"
He changed his words and continued: "The reason why I came here to settle here is to investigate this matter. You are pretending to be a messenger...... I think the real culprit who assassinated the state pastor must be you! Say it quickly! If you don't recruit you from the truth, don't blame me for torturing you!"
He Yiyan, Liao Qianzhong was very cooperative and raised the soldering iron, and was about to burn Fan Yu's face.
This Fan Yu can be regarded as a handsome person, if this is branded, I am afraid that this appearance will be completely ruined......
"Don't, don't! I said, I said ......."
Seeing this, Fan Yu shuddered violently, and said in a loud voice: "My lord, the lower official is really wronged...... Xia Guan is actually the other driver of Rongyang City, usually to assist the state pastor to deal with government affairs, if the state minister is not there, the letter seal will be temporarily taken care of by the lower official. So ......"
"So you forged the documents of Lord Zhou Mu?" He Yi said with a sneer.
"This ...... Xia Guan is really helpless. A few years ago, there was a royal order from the imperial city that came to Rongyang, but the state pastor had disappeared for a long time, and the lower officials really didn't dare to delay the imperial order, so they had no choice but to forge the documents of the state pastor...... "Fan Yu said tremblingly.
"I see, it seems that I blamed you. He Yi pretended to be abrupt, and hurriedly said: "Come on, hurry up and loosen the ties for Master Fan!"
Don't take the position, he is the adjutant of the state pastor's most confidant, and when the state pastor is not there, he can handle some things on behalf of the state pastor.
Therefore, this forgery of documents is actually not a big crime for Fan Yu.
Of course, He Yi didn't want to do anything to him, he just wanted to get some retribution from him.
Instead of imposing heavy punishment and forcing the other party to say some half-truths, He Yi prefers to use this "gentle" way to let the other party tell the truth willingly.
......
"Master Fan, don't blame me for using this method. After all, the disappearance of the governor is not a trivial matter, and besides, there is a death order issued above, so I have to deal with it carefully...... Here, I'll give you a compensation first. ”
He Yi ordered someone to loosen Fan Yu's ties, and opened the skylight in the dungeon, scattering banana smoke, and then personally brought Fan Yu a bowl of awakening tea.
In order to be able to continue to get retribution from the other party, he must completely substitute himself into the role of a "Juzhen Palace monk", only in this way will he not make the other party suspicious.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be...... Since it was a misunderstanding, it was solved, and it was blamed on the subordinate for not making it clear in time. ”
Feeling the aura in his body gradually rejuvenated, Fan Yu was really relieved, and reached out to take the tea handed by He Yi, and couldn't help but feel flattered in his heart.
You must know that Juzhen Palace is the holy palace of protecting the country, and its palace master Pang Shizhi is the first holy immortal to enter the world, and his strength far exceeds that of the other nine state pastors.
Therefore, the status and status of Juzhen Palace naturally far surpass that of other monks in the world.
If you can take this opportunity to have a good relationship with Ju Zhen Palace......
Fan Yu had a small abacus in his heart, and his eyes when he looked at He Yi began to become very burning.
He Yi saw all this in his eyes, sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he sat quietly opposite Fan Yu, and asked sideways: "Lord Fan, now that Yuan Zhenzhou Mu is missing, Rongyang has long been ownerless. At this time, how could the Imperial City still give an order to Rongyang City? Could it be that there is something urgent that cannot be done?"
Fan Yu complained: "Urgent, not in a hurry...... Alas, it's not because of the altar that received a thousand knives, every year because of this incident, we in Rongzhou have to be busy. ”
Altar to Heaven!
As soon as these words came out, Gongliangju and the others on the side suddenly changed their faces.
"The Altar of Tongtian? After nearly two years of silence, is the Imperial City ready to open the Altar of Tongtian again?" He Yi squinted his eyes, although his face did not show anything unusual, but there were turbulent waves in his heart.
The four characters of the Heavenly Altar represent the only channel connecting the secular and the cultivation realm.
Every time the altar is opened, it will be accompanied by a "holy immortal" descending into the secular world.
In the first two years, because of the burial of six holy immortals in the Northern Wilderness Snow Plain, the spiritual property handed over to the Imperial City by the states every year was greatly reduced, thus breaking the speed of the Tongtian Altar being opened once a year, and it also happened to give He Yi two years to develop and strengthen his strength.
If it weren't for that, they wouldn't have been able to occupy Huyang City so quickly.
He Yi subconsciously clenched his fists.
If the Tongtian Altar is opened again, then the next Saint Immortal who comes may be arranged to the territory of Rongzhou.
Once this happens...... But it's not easy.
......
Fan Yu nodded and said, "The Imperial City is here, and it is ready to reopen the Tongtian Altar in a year and summon new saints to enter the world, so I sent someone to inform me of this matter in advance." But now that the state pastor has no news, no one can deal with this matter at all, so the lower officials will forge the documents of the state pastor...... This is a desperate move. Alas, I originally wanted the Huyang Zhao family to inform the Qi Sect, but as soon as I entered the city, I was stopped by the officials in your city, saying that there were people who rebelled against the city, so I ......"
"So you easily believe it?"
He Yi's godless eyes fell on Fan Yu's face, and he said with a smile: "I heard that in your Rongyang City, you are fighting for power now. Could it be that Lord Fan, you ...... Do you also want to take the opportunity to occupy this Huyang City?"
"The lower officials don't dare!" Fan Yu was shocked by He Yi's words, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to breathe.
That's exactly what he thought before.
Instead of intriguing with other officials in Rongyang City, it is better to occupy a border city and be the emperor of the soil at ease.
"Hmph, forgive me for not being so bold!" He Yi said coldly, then waved his hand and said: "That's it, we are also under the secret order of the Pang Palace Master, and we can't mention it to outsiders, so those old officials of Huyang don't know, since it's a misunderstanding, then forget it." Xiao Shao. ”
Jia Shao responded: "Lord, what do you command?"
He Yi said: "Let's take Lord Fan down to rest first, let Zhao Sheng, the head of the Zhao family, come over, if Lord Fan has anything to order, tell Zhao Sheng directly." ”
Since the collapse of the Zhao family, in order to avoid outsiders from seeing the clues, He Yi let Jiang Sheng, Jiang Kai, Li Hufa and others continue to live in the Zhao family's house.
The reputation of the Zhao family is supported outside, and it also saves a lot of trouble for the early development of Xiandang.
"Then thank you in advance, my lord, and retire. ”
When Fan Yu heard that He Yiken introduced the head of the Zhao family for him, he was immediately overjoyed, and he became more and more sure of He Yi's share of "living in the True Palace".
............
After Fan Yu left, He Yi and his party returned to the Taishou Mansion and discussed matters overnight.
The Huyang army stationed on the border of the Northern Wilderness, He Yi did not bring it back for the time being, and only transferred a part of the troops to Jia Shao, asking him to lead people to the counties around Huyang to capture those scattered disciples of the outer sect of the Qi Cultivation Sect.
He also asked Du Dao to lead a team of immortal monks to quickly go to the Qi Sect to clear the remnants, plunder all the things that could be taken away, and burn everything that could not be taken away, so as to avoid a resurgence.
Immediately afterwards, He Yi told Gongliang Ju and others everything he saw in the wilderness, including the demon clan and even the migration of the five-clawed golden dragon to the wilderness realm.
The look on their faces changed from stunned at first, to a look of extreme shock.
"The totem of the world will abandon the world...... It's no wonder that the secular wars have been in turmoil for thousands of years, and it is not easy to be unified, but it has been troubled by the word Xiuzhen......"
"The powerful demon clan turned away from the world and moved away as a whole, which is really a huge loss...... If there was the help of the demon clan, the world would not be so unbearable today. ”
Everyone sighed one after another.
"Major General, this Fan Yu, what are you going to do with it? Let the tiger return to the mountain, I'm afraid something will happen. On the side, Liao Qianzhong said worriedly.
That Fan Yu is not only a person from Rongyang City, but also knows the news of Huyang's change of ownership, although he is now temporarily bluffed by the share of the "Juzhen Palace" they pretended, but the illusion will always be exposed one day.
I'm afraid that once the matter reaches the imperial city and enters the ears of the real Juzhen Palace, it will be a big deal......
He Yi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's okay, that Fan Yu's heart is extremely weak, and when I broke my mind, instead of being annoyed and angry, he also intended to stammer me." Such a greedy and hypocritical villain is also worthy of being a tiger, so let him go back and continue to fight for power! It is better to have a few more conflicts with the monks in Rongyang City, so that it will be more convenient for us to capture Rongyang in the future. ”
After a pause, He Yi remembered Sun Dai and the others' intention to rebel, so he said: "In addition, let's prepare a trial in the near future! As for the old officials in the past, if they can be replaced, they will be replaced. ”
There is a shortage of manpower, especially those who are well-versed in governance.
This is also the biggest shortcoming of He Yifang's current side.
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have continued to appoint the former Huyang officials.
With this incident, He Yi felt more and more that this group of people was like gunpowder placed next to the fire, and they might explode at any time.
It's time to kick those guys out of the way......
