Chapter 53: The Post House Talk
"I didn't expect His Royal Highness to behead the magistrate of Chi County, it seems that this person really deserves to be killed, the people are very angry with him, today in Luoyan Mountain, most of the people there are from Chi County, and their request is to kill this magistrate. ”
Chen Qi and the others returned to the Yuezhou City Post House, Ji Xuan was already waiting, and Xue Chen was very happy to hear that the magistrate of Chi County was beheaded by Ji Xuan on the spot in the mansion today.
Guo Dongming said: "In fact, except for the two prefects who tried their best to provide disaster relief, the others should be killed, including the prefect of Yuezhou." ”
Ji Xuan looked at Guo Dongming and said with a smile: "According to what Senior Brother said, all states and counties in Yuezhou will have no supervisors, and disaster relief is urgently needed, what should I do?"
Guo Dongming said: "You can send another official, or you can promote it from below." ”
Ji Xuan said: "There needs to be a process for transferring from other places, and they have to understand the situation after they arrive, which will delay for a long time, and who dares to guarantee that there are no traitors among the transferred officials, and they will not take the opportunity to collect money." Of course, there will definitely be honest and honest people, but we don't have time to screen them. ”
"I asked Master Zheng to do an investigation, and the reason why so many officials in Yuezhou were involved in corruption this time was mainly because they were coerced by the officials sent by the Ministry of Households. ”
"In extraordinary times, we should use extraordinary methods, and the atmosphere of the entire court today is like this, we can only slowly reverse and change. Most of these people are capable, but they are polluted by the environment. I believe that through today's shock, these people will wake up, and if they can all come back from their path, it will be a blessing to the people. ”
"Yuezhou Governor Zhang Ping is also such a person, his ability is very outstanding, although there is a lot of corruption in this disaster relief, but this person is not bad, except for this one, he has not done anything other to hurt nature and reason. I talked to him separately today, and he has already stated that he will be an official in the future. ”
"My attitude is very clear, as long as you are not a heinous person, you can give it a chance, so that more officials can see hope and return to their original hearts. ”
Chen Qi said: "Although Brother Wei has just entered the court, he acts vigorously and resolutely, and his understanding of the situation is not comparable to ordinary people, it is really the blessing of the people, the blessing of the Great Wei, you don't have to worry about the sword and the rivers and lakes, the supreme position is what you should work for." ”
Ji Xuan shook his head, "I'm really not interested in that position, if it weren't for the royal blood flowing on my body, if it weren't for the royal family encountering such a crisis, I really wouldn't come back." ”
Xue Chen said: "Shall we leave for Qingzhou tomorrow?"
Ji Xuan nodded, "The things here have been arranged, we will leave early tomorrow morning, first to Qingzhou, and then to Hengzhou." ”
Chen Qi said: "I have a suggestion that I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”
Ji Xuan said: "If you and I have something to say, just talk about it." ”
Chen Qi said: "Running from state to state, this is a waste of time, we should divide into two roads, all the way to Qingzhou, all the way to Hengzhou, and at the same time carry out disaster relief, so as to buy more time for the people." ”
Ji Xuan said: "What my brother said is very true, so let's do it, you and Miss Ding will go to Qingzhou with me, General Xue and Senior Brother and Master Zheng, you go to Hengzhou." ”
Xue Chen said: "Let's let Brother Guo follow His Highness, and I can just go over with Master Zheng." ”
Ji Xuan said: "With Brother Chen and Miss Ding by my side, you can rest assured, the three of you go together, if you discuss more, according to what I just said, Enwei will be used together, those who should be killed will be killed, and those who should be left will stay." Bring the sword of Shang Fang with you. ”
Xue Chen said: "Okay, so that we can go back to Beijing quickly, there is still a mess in the capital." ”
Ji Xuan said to Zheng Tai: "Master Zheng, tell me to go down, everyone pack up and leave Yuezhou tomorrow." In addition, I sent someone to inform Zhang Ping. ”
"Yes!"
Zheng Tai got up and replied, and then walked outside.
"By the way, Brother Chen, where did Uncle Meng and Brother Xiaofan go?" Ji Xuan asked Chen Qi.
Chen Qi said, "Do you brothers know about the Tianyi Sect?"
"Tianyi Sect?"
Ji Xuan, Guo Dongming, and Xue Chen asked almost in unison.
Ji Xuan said: "I once heard Master say that this Tianyi Sect suddenly appeared eighteen years ago, bringing bloody rain to the entire martial arts, but then it suddenly disappeared. Why, this religion has reappeared?"
Chen Qi nodded, "Exactly, they reappeared after eighteen years, and quietly destroyed the Liyang Shen Mansion. ”
"What?"
Ji Xuan and the three of them asked in unison again, their faces covered with surprise.
"How is this possible, the Liyang Shen Mansion has a transcendent status in the martial arts, and there are many masters under the sect, no matter how strong the Tianyi Sect is, it will not quietly destroy the entire Shen Mansion!" Ji Xuan still didn't believe it.
Chen Qi said: "Eighteen years ago, the disappearance of the Tianyi Sect was precisely because the Shen Mansion injured their leader, and eighteen years later, they first chose to attack the Shen Mansion. ”
Guo Dongming said: "How long is this?"
Chen Qi said: "About four months ago. ”
Ji Xuan said, "How did you know this news?"
Ding Muxi said: "Sister Yu and the boy who came with us are from the Shen family. That day, my sister and I returned to Xingyun Temple, and we became friends, and she later told us the news. ”
Chen Qi said: "Uncle Meng and Xiao Fan left Xingyun Temple to inform some martial arts sects after hearing the news, so that they could take precautions. The Tianyi Sect has endured for eighteen years, and now it appears again, it will definitely not be just to destroy the Shen Mansion to take revenge, they should have a bigger conspiracy. ”
Ji Xuan said: "It looks like the entire martial arts is about to face a catastrophe. Senior brother, when the matter in Hengzhou is over, you immediately go back to the mountain, tell the master the news, and listen to his old man's opinion. ”
Guo Dongming said: "Okay!"
Ding Muxi said: "We just talked about this news here tonight, don't mention it in front of my sister and them." ”
Ji Xuan said: "Miss Ding is really careful. ”
Chen Qi said: "Originally, Ximei and I were going to escort them to Butterfly Villa, but thinking that Brother Wei also needed people here, I came here first, and then sent them over when we passed by Butterfly Villa when we returned to Beijing." ”
Ji Xuan said: "Thank you two for your concern!"
Xue Chen said, "What are they doing in Butterfly Mountain Villa?"
Chen Qi said: "Butterfly Villa is the maiden home of the eldest lady of the Shen family, and Sister Yu wants to send Shen Changhao to her uncle's house. ”
Xue Chen said: "Butterfly Mountain Villa is named because it is built in Butterfly Valley, which has beautiful scenery and flocks of butterflies. Because it is not far from the capital, it has become a place for the dignitaries and nobles in the capital to play, and the Butterfly Villa has also made friends with many dignitaries, it can be said that in the entire martial arts, the Butterfly Villa is the martial arts sect that is most implicated with the officials. ”
"Now the owner of Butterfly Mountain Villa is Ouyang Yi, I saw it once, and I think this person is too sleek, not like a person in the martial arts, more like a businessman, everything is based on his own interests, I don't like it. ”
Chen Qi said: "After all, he is Shen Changhao's uncle, I think he shouldn't care about his relatives." ”
Xue Chen said: "I hope so." ”
Ji Xuan said: "We also need to pay attention to this matter of Tianyi Sect, although it is a dispute between the rivers and lakes, but if a family dominates the martial arts, we have to guard against it." ”
Xue Chen said: "I will always keep an eye on it." ”
