"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
When the imperial edict arrived, it was as if the emperor had arrived in person. Jie'er took the imperial edict and started reading it without hesitation.
"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I have recently concluded Zhao Yuanba's case, and have specially sent my personal assistant Li Yang to count the family's wealth. There must be no mistakes. Anyone who obstructs him will be killed!"
When she said the last word, Jie'er's voice was full of cold murderous intent, making everyone tremble involuntarily.
This is His Majesty's personal decree. Who dares to violate it?
So everyone reluctantly made way for Li Yang to pass through the mansion and enter the back house.
After Li Yang entered the back house, a smile appeared on his face. Do these old foxes want to fight him?
Do you really think that you can’t think of things that they can think of?
Jie'er followed Li Yang, but just as she was about to enter the backyard, she seemed to suddenly think of something and turned to look at Liu Dehai, who was kneeling on the ground and shivering.
"Liu Dehai, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, falsely passed down the Holy Sage's oral instructions and disrupted order. He is guilty of the same crime of deceiving the emperor and should be executed according to the law!"
After saying this, Jie'er did not hesitate to chop off Liu Dehai's head with a knife!
Blood spurted out instantly, covering Jie'er's body in a dazzling scarlet color!
Liu Dehai's death shocked everyone present. No one expected that Jie'er, who was just a guard, could be so decisive and ruthless.
This is the Minister of Household Affairs, the one in charge of money!
Normally, they wouldn't even have time to flatter him, so they wouldn't be willing to kill him.
But this Jie'er not only killed, but also killed neatly!
Everyone was shocked by her courage.
But what shocked them even more was what happened later, because they actually heard Jie'er order the guards to carry Liu Dehai's body to the door.
Is this woman crazy? You actually want to carry Liu Dehai's body out. Aren't you afraid of causing trouble by doing so?
However, what surprised them even more was that this woman not only did it, but she also did it extremely skillfully!
Even the people watching were horrified, this woman was simply too cruel.
Just when they were shocked, Jie'er took out another piece of paper and handed it to the guard captain next to them.
"Here is a confession. Please send someone to the Yin Yamen of Shuntian Prefecture for filing."
Upon hearing this, the guard captain nodded respectfully, then turned around and led the two guards to the Yin Yamen of Shuntian Mansion.
On the other side, Li Yang had already walked to the backyard.
The luxurious decoration is even comparable to that of a royal palace, but even a candlestick lighting on the road is made of pure silver.
Li Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, the Zhao family was really corrupt.
Their mansion occupies the most prosperous place in the entire city. No wonder so many people want to seek power and usurp the throne!
However, it would be too fanciful to want to overthrow him just based on this!
After walking for who knows how long, Li Yang finally came to the main hall, but when he reached the main hall, he was blocked by a black shadow.
It was a tall man with a black robe covering his body.
He exudes a dangerous aura, like a beast waiting for an opportunity, ready to pounce on its prey and tear it apart at any time!
"Who are you!"
Li Yang felt trembling in his heart and left the room directly. Now that this place has been sealed off by the emperor and the ministries, it is impossible for such a person with some cultivation to be here!
"Hmph, you bitch!"
The strong man didn't say much. His strong legs suddenly exerted force and he came straight towards Li Yang.
Li Yang's eyes flashed with solemnity. Fortunately, he had been practicing boxing every day during this period, so he didn't have the power to resist at all. He saw his palms flying quickly, and he attacked the opponent with a set of mysterious boxing skills!
After the two exchanged several moves, they each stopped.
"Who are you? Why did you prevent Li from investigating this case?"
Li Yang suppressed the playful smile on his face and asked with a somewhat solemn tone.
"Master Li, don't you recognize our family?"
The man chuckled and suddenly raised his left arm. When his sleeve slid down to reveal his arm, Li Yang's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"So it's you, why are you here?"
Li Yang's expression was full of alertness, this was clearly one of Zhao Yuanba's soldiers!
Because this soldier has a very good relationship with Zhao Yuanba, even though his strength is not too tyrannical, he is still taken care of by everyone, but he did not expect that the other party is not only alive but also appears here!
"The person responsible for arresting these people is the Prime Minister?"
Li Yang couldn't help but frowned when his suspicion was confirmed.
"In this case, I advise you to leave!"
"Haha, Mr. Li, are you giving up? Then our family cannot agree. The Prime Minister has long warned our family that we must not let this group of thieves escape."
"Master Li, we are destined to be together, so you'd better just surrender and capture him."
Li Yang's face turned gloomy after listening to the soldiers' words.
"Ha, I think you should stop talking nonsense. Let's see the real deal!"
After saying that, he immediately pulled away and ran outside.
Just kidding, it's okay to ask him to say harsh words, but now he is just a person who has just practiced martial arts for less than half a month.
If he and someone like him crawled back from the battlefield, wouldn't that be a recipe for death?
He's not stupid.
"Huh, you still want to leave? Stay with our family!"
The strong man shouted coldly when he saw this, kicked his right foot, and jumped up high.
At the same time, a dagger appeared in his hand. He tightened his grip on the dagger and slashed it down on Li Yang's back.
Feeling the strong wind behind him, Li Yang's heart trembled.
He tried his best to dodge, and although he avoided fatal injuries, his shoulder was still scratched with a deep gash, and blood immediately flowed out.
The severe pain made Li Yang sweat on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth and looked at the strong man in front of him.
He originally thought he only needed to delay for a while, wait until the guards came to help, and then find a chance to leave.
But the current situation has been somewhat beyond his expectation. No one has come so far. It is obvious that the other party has premeditated it!
"Humph, Li Yang, your end has come!"
The strong man snorted coldly, picked up the dagger and charged towards him again. His goal was very clear, which was to kill Li Yang.
Li Yang didn't dare to neglect, and used the Qing Gong he had practiced hard in the past few years to wander around the house.
But after all, he doesn't know Qinggong and can't escape at all.
Gradually, he became increasingly labored, his face became pale, and his breathing became rapid.
Seeing that he could no longer hold on, a sword cry suddenly came!
"Let him go!"
The cold light came with Jie'er's butterfly-like figure. In the blink of an eye, the two of them were approaching and kicked the strong man in the chest!
Li Yang took the opportunity to break free from the shackles and quickly jumped aside!
"Where's the crazy woman from?"
The guard's eyes turned cold, he had never encountered such an opponent before!
Who is this woman? Why help Li Yang?
