Years of experience told me that this matter would never be that simple. Jiang Shangcheng was an old fox. Otherwise, even with the support of Emperor Xia, he would not be able to secure his position as Minister of Civil Affairs. His expression remained unchanged and he continued to ask with a cold face: "What next? "

Xue Bo suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground, lowered his head, and looked like he was accepting the punishment.

Jiang Shangcheng had a bad feeling in his heart, and things were developing in an unknown direction.

There was helplessness in the butler's voice, but he had no other choice: "Time is urgent and Xue Bo has no time to come back to ask for instructions. Once the things fall into Xiahou's hands, you will be doomed. The protector is eager and rushes towards the Su Mansion, hoping for the second time." He snatched the things over for a while, and when he got there, he learned that Su Wenwen had driven away in a car, and the target was Zhuquefang, so he had no choice but to chase him. Finally, he caught up with him on the North-South Avenue, killed him with thunder, and then snatched away the evidence of his crime. Come, time is in a hurry, people from the Fifth City Defense Department are about to arrive, and there is no time to deal with the body, so we can only erase the traces and leave."

He took out a recording stone from his arms and handed it over.

Jiang Shangcheng's face was expressionless. Even if he could look at his eyes, he couldn't guess what he was thinking. He looked at the thing in his hand, and when he was about to speak, he coughed violently.

"Cough, cough...!"

The housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward, patted his back, and asked with concern: "Master, are you okay?"

A good while.

Jiang Shangcheng stopped coughing and shook his head: "I'm fine."

ordered.

"Open."

"Yes!" Xue Bo entered a little bit of real energy.

The screen showed that the original scene appeared in front of you.

Jiang Shangcheng's expression remained the same, and he felt very cold in his heart. He really didn't expect that his mentor, whom he had always respected, would actually hold back, and he didn't explode until now.

At the same time, it is very cold. If this thing is exposed, it will cause great damage. It is foreseeable that everything you have now will be lost.

Although he was angry and angry that Mo Yu was despicable, he had been dead for several years and there was nothing he could do even if he wanted to take revenge.

He is very calm. Getting angry when encountering big problems cannot solve the problem. Only meditation can come up with solutions to solve the problem.

Another point, and the most important thing, is that you will not trust anyone except yourself. This is the key to being able to climb to where you are today. It is well hidden and no one knows.

Frowning, he said: "Suppose I fall and there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Although Zhou Yifan has just jumped over, he is an old second-rank servant with sufficient qualifications and is still His Majesty's man. He should take over. Qin Wenhai has not taken the responsibility and cannot be embarrassed." When you get a big job, it is possible to be promoted to the position of Zuo Shilang. If the position of Right Shilang is vacant, will Your Majesty agree to let Su Wenwen take over?"

"This old slave doesn't know either!" The housekeeper shook his head.

"However, with Xiahou's methods, there may be a way to make His Majesty compromise, and Su Wenwen can take another step forward."

Jiang Shangcheng said: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

The butler looked worried: "What should I do now?"

Looking at Xue Bo, Jiang Shangcheng asked: "Are you sure there are no clues left?"

"Don't worry, there are absolutely no clues left!"

Jiang Shangcheng stretched out his palms and rubbed his temples. One head had two big heads. He was sitting at home and trouble came from the sky. Based on his understanding of Zhang Ronghua, including the last time they met, he did not provoke him and would not take the initiative to take action. However, things happened It happened, Su Wenwen died in Xue Bo's hands.

He and the housekeeper have followed him for many years, and they have never made any mistakes. Logically speaking, it is impossible for them to betray.

But Su Wenwen died very quickly. He beheaded first and played later. He put himself on the fire and roasted himself. He had no way out and forced him to confront Zhang Ronghua. Even if there was a reason, there was still suspicion in it.

This was hidden in my heart and was not spoken out.

Order: "Secretly investigate the Mo family and find out the causes and consequences."

"Yes!" the butler responded.

"Follow the prescription left by Xiahou."

The butler was puzzled: "Sir, you...!"

Jiang Shangcheng waved his hand to interrupt, his eyes firm: "I can't care so much. Things will get worse if this continues. We must return to the official department as soon as possible."

"Your Majesty's side?"

"I will explain it myself!"

Patting Xue Bo on the shoulder, Jiang Shangcheng expressed his opinion: "You did a good job. When the matter is over, you will be indispensable."

"You are so kind to your subordinates that even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire in front of you, you will still stand in front of them."

Jiang Shangcheng was very satisfied: "Go!"

The two resigned.

Soon Mrs. Jiang returned, closed the door, and entered the bedroom. Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Shangcheng made a gesture to stop her, communicated in sign language, and explained the matter again.

Mrs. Jiang is not a simple female figure. She comes from a famous family and is very capable. She is his virtuous wife.

Externally she is just an ordinary woman, but secretly she controls a power.

Jiang Shangcheng has been in the officialdom for so many years, how could he not understand that eggs cannot be put in one basket? Let the wife be responsible. No one would have thought that the rules of the Jiang family are here. Women are not allowed to participate in matters big or small. They are naturally very confusing.

She revealed her suspicions about the housekeeper and Xue Bo, and asked her to secretly investigate the Mo family and the Su family. As expected, the voice stone appeared. The Mo family was finished at this time, and the person who took action would not let them live.

Mrs. Jiang asked with gestures: "Is it really not Xia Hou's fault?"

"He is very measured in what he does. From the Bachelor's Hall to now, he has never taken the initiative to break the rules unless you anger him first. For example, in the Evergreen Academy, he also kills people in the name of official assessment. If he really wants to act openly, even if the factions are different, You also have to admire him as a person.”

Mrs. Jiang nodded, knowing best that she is not herself, but your enemy.

Jiang Shangcheng continued with gestures: "No matter who takes action, he will not give up. The appearance of the voice stone is the first step. Killing Su Wenwen and bringing Zhang Ronghua to his end is the second step. The third step should be to provoke us to fight. Even if I sit here If I don't move, it seems that all the clues have been eliminated. As long as I dare to sit still and wait, new clues will appear and even be delivered to his hands."

Mrs. Jiang understood that with her husband's ability and power, they were no match for Zhang Ronghua, who was one of the six ministers. The latter was also the commander-in-chief of the Beida Army at Zhongtian Camp, plus a "special envoy". With the new terrorist forces, they were no match. Unless His Majesty takes action, this struggle will escalate and expand to every part of Daxia.

As strong as Emperor Xia, he was not absolutely sure of winning against Zhang Ronghua, a rookie in officialdom!

No matter how it changes, the outcome is already doomed. Her husband is removed, Xiahou and His Majesty are completely at odds, dragons and tigers fight, and the mastermind behind the scenes is hiding in secret to take advantage.

Ask with hand gestures: "What are you going to do?"

Jiang Shangcheng held her catkins tightly, with a bitter look on his face: "Daxia cannot be chaotic!"

Mrs. Jiang sighed in her heart. Although her husband was selfish and had human weaknesses, he was very clear about major issues. He took the people of the world as his own responsibility and there was no other way to go. This was also the reason why he fell in love with him. She stepped forward. Taking a step forward, he held him in his arms, as if he had returned to his youth, when they first met. He felt warm in his heart, and gently tapped his forehead.

Jiang Shangcheng rolled his eyes, as if to say, "It's not shameful for an old couple to do this."

Mrs. Jiang smiled and said deliberately: "I will ask someone to get the fruit."

He went out and summoned his maid Qingxue, who had been with her for many years and was still unmarried. She was deeply trusted and asked her to pass down the order secretly.

Su Mansion.

They didn't know about Su Wenwen's death. As Zhang Ronghua, Su Ming and others arrived and returned with the body, they learned that their father was dead. Led by Su Jingsheng, they hurriedly got up from the bed and rushed to the lobby.

He was the eldest son of the Su family. He came forward with his two younger brothers, bowed and saluted: "Thank you, sir, for escorting my father's body back!"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Tell me everything."

Su Jingsheng came one by one.

Zhang Ronghua asked again: "Is the body of the man in black still there?"

"My father specifically ordered it to be temporarily stored until you or someone sent can inspect it."

"lead the way!"

After a while, they entered a room and the body of the man in black was placed on a wooden frame.

Zhang Ronghua walked closer and knelt down to check. There were wounds everywhere on the body. It looked terrible. There were no vital wounds. Only the sword wound on the chest was fatal. It was very close to the heart. He died after escaping for a long time.

Seeing him getting up, Su Ming asked, "Did you see anything?"

Zhang Ronghua shook his head and looked at Su Jingsheng: "His Majesty has ordered the Soul Palace to investigate this matter, and I will also order people to investigate. No matter who did it, he can't escape!"

"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Call me Brother Rong!"

Su Jingsheng was stunned. Although Brother Rong and Master Hou are both two words, they have different meanings. The former is an absolute confidant, while the latter is one of his own, but there is a gap between them. The word "Brother Rong" is not just for anyone who wants to call him. You can scream, but as long as you scream, as long as Xiahou is still in power, he will protect you, your career will be smooth, and you don't have to worry about other people's revenge.

I was so excited that I hurriedly shouted: "Brother Rong!"

"Get ready for Su Shizhong's funeral. Don't wrong him. I will come over that day."

"yes!"

The two left.

Rejecting Su Jingsheng's offer, he arrived at the door and stopped in the corner.

Su Ming asked: "What do you think?"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Although there is very little news in front of us, the man in black appeared too suddenly and died in the Su Mansion. Everyone who knew the relevant secrets is dead. The so-called coincidence is nothing but careful planning."

His eyes were cold.

"Su Wen Zhang is one of ours. The other party knows my protective nature. As long as he dies, he will definitely get to the bottom of it. Whatever is in the way will be removed. Whoever the mastermind behind the scenes wants to use my hand to deal with, or To what purpose it has been achieved, we have to continue the investigation or wait until he hands over the knife to deduce it."

Su Ming was really angry. It was not an exaggeration to say that Su Wenwen was his favorite disciple. Now that he had fallen into this situation, he wanted to cut the murderer into pieces: "The situation is getting more and more chaotic, and all the evil spirits and ghosts in the dark have jumped out. , If you want to take a big part in this storm, Uncle Su, although his power is weak, is far less powerful than you, and he is willing to give his full help in the next situation."

It was a disguised statement that his faction was willing to join the new faction.

This way.

The power of the new faction will grow again and their influence will become even more exaggerated.

Zhang Ronghua said: "With your help, I will be even more powerful."

The two separated.

After being driven back to the house in a Tianji chariot, Zhang Ronghua ordered Zheng Qingyu to pass on the order and let Zheng Yi start investigating.

"Master, there is news from Zheng Yi that the Mo family has been destroyed!"

He took out a piece of information and handed it over.

Zhang Ronghua looked at it carefully. The other people in the Mo family were not worth mentioning. Although they were officials, they were all at low levels. Only Mo Yu, who died, retired from the official position until he was the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Personnel. He had been dead for several years and was Jiang Shangcheng's mentor.

Put down the information.

If the two died at the same time, there must be a connection. The finger pointed at Jiang Shangcheng and ordered: "Investigate Jiang Mansion."

"Yes!" Zheng Qingyu responded.

He waved his hand and let her go down.

Zhang Ronghua calculated the overall situation, starting with the military. During this period of time, with the help of the Daoshan Purgatory Formation, the entire 200,000-strong Beida Army was in his hands.

He also handed over the Daoshan Purgatory Formation to Xu Chengan and Yan Bei, as well as the Northern Army of the Northern Wilderness Camp and the Witch Slayer Army, with a combined total of 500,000 troops.

There is also good news coming from Zhang Ming's side. He married Shen Yuanxiao's daughter. With her support and his own strong ability, he is now the deputy general of the East Army of the East Wilderness Camp. Although he cannot control his troops with the help of the Daoshan Purgatory Formation, Some people follow it to the death, and it has great influence.

Not to mention the officialdom. With the addition of Uncle Su, and if necessary, Cui Ge Lao's faction, to put it bluntly, it has become the most powerful force in Daxia. To put it more arrogantly, even the Xia Emperor It's not as good as other factions, which must be united.

The official forces include True Dragon Palace and Chitian Palace.

The secret forces include the Huangquan Ancient Insect Clan, Guangming, Miao Miao Tian Sect, and Jiutian Sword Sect.

In addition to the Destiny Academy and [Uncovered] founded by Ji Xueyan, the power is so strong that it can defeat any faction or force.

But not enough!

Time is very tight, the prince's wedding is getting closer and closer, so we must be more prepared.

Without rest, I sat on a chair and watched the inheritance of Destiny Academy in my mind.

Soon, news came from Zheng Qingyu. Jiang Shangcheng had learned that the Mo family had been destroyed, and drove him over in a car. In addition, Zheng Yi also ordered people to continue to keep an eye on them, and any trouble would be reported immediately.

It was dawn in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Ronghua, served by sisters Ma Ning and Ma Jing, put on his unicorn robe and was about to go to court. At this time, Zheng Qingyu rushed to the front yard with a serious face, as if the sky was falling.

"What happened?"

Zheng Qingyu said: "The news came from below that riots broke out in one-fifth of the states in Daxia. There were officials who killed officials to take control of the county, strong men massacred villages, townspeople collected blood, and demons and ghosts caused trouble. It was very loud, like It was like a snowball, sweeping through many places in a short period of time. They all had one thing in common: the blood of the dead people disappeared. After getting the news, the four major departments in the following branches, as well as the state capital, county capital, etc., immediately dispatched People suppress.”

Zhang Ronghua thought of the Dragon Slaying Alliance. The Holy Land of Jie Tian spent hundreds of years secretly preparing the "Heart of the Ancient Blood Spirits". The two were exactly the same. If so, even though Qing Zhongze was killed, the remaining four holy lands would still The controlled Tiangang Sect and Disha Sect would not stop there and asked: "What about the Shang Dynasty and other small countries?"

"Do you suspect that they are the same as Daxia?"

"Yeah." Zhang Ronghua nodded.

"This matter is most likely the work of the Dragon Slaying Alliance. Since they dare to do this, when the plan comes to a critical point, they will not hesitate to expose some sects to collect enough blood essence. When it is completed, the next thing to do is Point."

Zheng Qingyu said: "If it is as you said, news from other places will come soon."

Looking towards the direction of the palace.

Zhang Ronghua's eyes flashed: "The Dragon Slaying Alliance has shaken everyone's base this time. This time the various factions in the meeting will give up their prejudices and briefly join forces to put down the rebellion."

"There is news from Zheng Yi, I will notify you as soon as possible!"

Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Tell Zheng Yi to let Guangming take action to suppress the riot."

"What if it's exposed?"

"Some things have no choice!"

"You are the blessing of all the people in the world!"

"Go!"

After getting into the car, Uncle Shi drove towards the palace.

The atmosphere in Ziji Palace was very heavy today.

The news below has not yet spread, but Su Wenzhang's death has spread, like a layer of haze, hanging over everyone's heads.

Secretly looking at the queue of household troops, Zhang Ronghua stood at the front, followed by the left and right ministers and others, and then quickly looked away, knowing that he would not look back, but he was still afraid of being stared at.

As time went by, Sangong also came.

When everyone arrived, the palace door was closed.

Emperor Xia had a cold face, and the terrifying cold air could be felt no matter how far away he was. He sat on the dragon chair with the support of the prince, and his weak voice sounded: "The Demon God of Taichu has sent word that there is a riot in one-fifth of the places below. !”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves. Except for the people at the top who got the news in advance, everyone else was shocked.

No wonder His Majesty is so angry and looks like he wants to eat people.

Zhang Ronghua stood out from the queue first, bowed and saluted, and said: "Go all out to suppress the rebellion, no slacking off!"

All new officials second the motion!

The momentum was astonishing.

Just as Zheng Qingyu said, all factions put aside their prejudices and united to fight the rebellion.

Sangong and others followed closely to show their support.

For a time, no one opposed the civil and military officials, a rare unity.

The reason is simple. Only when Daxia is stable can officials enjoy prosperity, wealth, privileges, etc.

Emperor Xia issued an order and ordered the four major departments to suppress the rebellion. He mobilized large armies from the Zhongtian Camp and the Beihuang Camp to put down the rebellion, as well as local troops and government personnel. The rebellion would soon be suppressed.

Ning Yichen was brought out again to encourage him. Several days had passed and the assassination of the envoys from the four countries had not yet been solved. Emperor Xia was very angry. At this time, the border must be more stable, and the enemy must not be allowed to take advantage of it.

He was scolded severely in front of everyone.

Ning Yichen couldn't wait to find a mouse hole to turn into, and his heart was so fierce that he must find the murderer.

The meeting dispersed.

Zhang Ronghua stayed in the household department for a while, listened to Bao Yong's report, said a few words and left.

Return to the house.

Zheng Qingyu came forward and reported the news from the Shang Dynasty and the surrounding small countries. As he guessed, the riots were not only in Daxia, but also in their country. All the blood of those who died had disappeared.

After listening.

Zhang Ronghua was certain that the Dragon Slaying Alliance would refine a new "Heartblood of Ancient Blood Spirits" to replace it, and ordered: "The imperial court has already taken action. Send an order for the people of light to stop."

"yes!"

Wait for her to leave.

Zhang Ronghua continued to watch the inheritance of Destiny Academy in his mind, and saw that now, there is only a little left. He should first read it to increase his own foundation, and then refine the Tiandu Ancient Realm.

Two hours later.

After reading the last few books, my own accumulation reached a terrifying level.

Get up from the chair, open the door, look at the sky, it will be noon in a while, after lunch, take out the fortune elixir cauldron and materials, and refine the remaining palace...!

5000 words!

After sorting out the outline and details, the next chapter should be about Yang Hongling guarding the palace sand.
