"Who did our family think was here? It turned out to be Lu Zhenfu, whose name we have admired for a long time." Zou Ji came forward and said with a strange look.
It's no secret that Meng Yuan values Lu Hanjiang in the eyes of these people. This guy stepped on their heads in the West Factory as soon as he arrived. He was obviously difficult to deal with. With this temper, he is worthy of being an old guy like Meng Yuan. eyed person.
"Who is this?"
Lu Hanjiang inherited Meng Yuan's good qualities and never fought an unprepared battle. Long before he came to the Jinyiwei Yamen, he had already heard the news about Xichang's visit. Now that he was asked about it, he responded deliberately Just people.
"Bold! This is Eunuch Zou, the governor of the West Factory. Lu Zhenfu, why aren't you rude?" A eunuch next to Zou Ji scolded.
"Salute? What a joke, the sun rises from the west today?"
Lu Hanjiang got off his horse and kicked the two blind Xichang fans on the ground in front of him to Zou Ji's feet.
"You!" Several stall owners from the West Factory glared angrily and were about to take action, but were stopped by Zou Ji.
Zou Ji looked at Lu Hanjiang with a smile and asked, "Lu Zhenfu, what do you mean?"
"My father-in-law is blind, can't you see?"
Lu Hanjiang patted the dust on his body, and two hundred households came forward and respectfully took off his cloak. Lu Hanjiang slowly walked into the hall, passed everyone, strode between the eunuchs of the West Factory, and then let nature take its course. He sat on the highest commanding position.
He sat down with his left leg resting on his right leg, ordered a cup of tea and took a sip. The gentle tea washed away the dust all the way. He breathed a long sigh of relief and then looked at the people in the West Factory leisurely.
"My father-in-law came here today, why are you here?" Lu Hanjiang said lazily, his tone exactly the same as when Meng Yuan was there.
At this time, all the imperial guards also took their seats one after another. Everyone sat down in order. Wu Qiming and Qiu Qingyun stood on the left and right of Lu Hanjiang, not raising any questions about him sitting in the commander's seat.
Hatred flowed crazily in Zou Ji's eyes, and the people around Xichang were also furious. One of them said angrily: "Lu Zhenfu knows that not everyone can sit in this position. The governor is here today, how dare you be so presumptuous!"
"Oh? Governor?"
Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows and looked at the eunuch who spoke, and said slowly: "This West Factory Admiral is just a dog raised by our Jinyi Guards. Your West Factory is naturally our dog cage. I'm afraid he will get tired of living if he calls like this." "
"How dare you be disrespectful to the governor! You are just a governor, how can you have the courage! Let me deal with you!"
The eunuch was so angry that he struck him with a palm as he spoke. Lu Hanjiang was holding the tea without even raising his eyelids. Wu Qiming glanced at him coldly and threw out four flying knives in his hand, aiming at the opponent's vital points.
With a sneer, the eunuch turned his palms into fists and threw out two short knives that were more than ten feet long from his sleeves. He blocked the four flying knives with several consecutive chops. There were four crisp sounds in a row, and all four flying knives were deflected. moving trajectory.
"Humph, what a small trick!"
Just as the eunuch's disdainful voice fell, I saw Wu Qiming's raised right hand, with four fingers slightly hooked, and crystal silk threads appeared in the light. The trajectories of the four flying knives suddenly changed in the air, from an incredible angle. Fly back again.
laugh!
The speed of the flashback of the flying knife was beyond the eunuch's expectation. He was caught off guard, and all his tendons and legs were severed in an instant. His whole body was like a puppet with its strings cut off, and he fell directly to the ground.
"Ah! You - how dare you! Lord Governor! Lord Governor, save me!" The eunuch's limbs were crippled in an instant. He was so frightened that he cursed angrily and asked Zou Ji for help.
"waste!"
Zou Ji gave him a chop, and then his venomous eyes fell firmly on Wu Qiming. Before this man took action, he smelled a dangerous smell. It seemed that this Jin Yiwei was indeed crouching tiger, hidden dragon.
"Tsk, tsk, father-in-law, you want to take action."
Lu Hanjiang smashed his mouth, put down the tea, looked at Zou Ji with a kind face and asked, "Do you know, father-in-law, what is the crime of using a knife in Jinyiwei's yamen?"
"Hey, little bastard, others don't know your details, but our family knows
The truth is clear. Without Meng Yuan's support, do you think our family will still be afraid of you? "
After being provoked several times, Zou Ji simply put away the fake smile on his face. He sneered, opened his arms, and said proudly: "This governor is standing here, Lu Hanjiang, what can you do? What do you dare to do?!"
"Well, that's a good question."
Lu Hanjiang stretched out two fingers and lightly swiped them across the edge of the tea cup on the table. The small cup body went from extremely still to extremely moving, spinning rapidly like a top, tracing an afterimage trace in the air, and then hit it with a snap. On Zou Ji's head.
Immediately, the body of the West Factory Admiral flew out of the lobby, and then his head exploded like a watermelon, turning into blood foam on the ground. Along with the blood mist flying all over the sky, the remaining headless corpse stood upright. The ground fell backwards.
The scene was completely silent. Everyone in the West Factory was dumbfounded. No one could have imagined that Lu Hanjiang actually dared to take action and killed the Governor of the West Factory in one go.
"What is the crime according to the law for breaking into the Jinyiwei Yamen without permission?" Lu Hanjiang looked around in the hall and asked with a smile.
Yan Feng replied with a sinister smile: "Jinyiwei Yamen is an important military area of the imperial court. If there is no order, if you trespass here without permission, according to the law, the criminal will be beheaded on the spot, and the three clans of the family will be annihilated. All the relatives of the nine clans will be exiled to the frontier. No mercy will be given to them." .”
"Yan Qianhu is very knowledgeable and talented. Well...then just act according to the law."
Lu Hanjiang nodded, and the Jin Yiwei around him swarmed up and took down all the stupid West Factory stall bosses. Even if they had the strength to resist, they didn't dare to move. Who knew that the Jin Yiwei was so ruthless, even the governor Zou Ji The Lord also said to kill, just kill.
"Sir, please forgive me!"
For a moment, there were voices begging for mercy everywhere, and several thousand families were about to kill. Lu Hanjiang waved his hands in disgust: "Hey, don't do it here, drag him out and kill."
"I obey my humble duty!"
The Jin Yiwei escorted the people from the West Factory and retreated, taking Zou Ji's body away with them. Lu Hanjiang, Wu Qiming, and Qiu Qingyun were the only three people left in the hall.
There was no one around, Qiu Qingyun sighed slightly, and he said worriedly: "Did Lu Zhenfu go too far in this matter? Although it is not a pity for those eunuchs to die, Zou Ji, after all, is the governor of the West Factory, under His Majesty's Those who have shown their faces in front of you will be killed like this... I have no other intentions, but Mr. Meng’s whereabouts are unknown now. Should we be more restrained in our actions? "
"Master Qiu, what you said is wrong. It is precisely because the old man's situation is unknown now that we have to act tyrannically."
Lu Hanjiang looked at the two people and said sternly: "You and I both know what Master Meng does. He is always cautious. Although there was an accident in the Northland this time, I think that with his old man's ability, he can turn the crisis around. To say the least, even if the old man is really If the horse stumbles, then we should take advantage of His Majesty’s good intentions and quickly kill people to establish our authority and keep our footing.”
As he spoke, Lu Hanjiang sighed quietly and said: "Half of the reputation of Jinyiwei depends on the Xiuchun Dao in our hands, and the other half depends on His Majesty. People like Xichang are looking for death. It is just right to use their heads to test our Majesty." , are you still willing to continue supporting Jin Yiwei?"
Qiu Qingyun and Wu Qiming looked at each other and finally nodded.
...
The people from the West Factory were coming with force, and everyone was watching. Now they died in a hurry, and everyone was watching. In less than a cup of tea, all the stalls in the West Factory, including the corpse of the governor Zou Ji, were hung. Outside the Jinyiwei Yamen.
Immediately, the rumors that had just emerged in the capital came to an abrupt end. What's even more terrible is that at the moment when everyone in the West Factory died in the Jinyiwei Yamen, a decree came from the palace——
There were two orders. One went to the Meng Mansion, promoted Meng Yuan's title, and at the same time promoted him to Taifu. This was a completely false title with no actual power, but it was indeed the highest honor an official could receive.
This is a promotion, not a title. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this decree basically shows that Meng Yuan is in the North. I am afraid something really happened, because the second decree that followed directly went there. The Jinyiwei Yamen was promoted to Fu Lu Hanjiang, Fusi Town, North Town, and became the new commander of the Jinyiwei.
Now it's better, all the major forces have ceased their activities.
No one dared to take the lead anymore. Obviously, His Majesty still favored the Jinyiwei. The West Factory was almost wiped out, and Lu Hanjiang was promoted to the commander. This is a great favor.
While shutting up, the ministers couldn't help but raise their concerns. They all said that there are three things to do when a new official takes office. Back then, Meng Yuan burned the capital to red and white, and His Majesty's ascension to the throne in the imperial city was prosperous. The hundreds of officials and ministers outside the imperial city were all so well-dressed that they could eat flowing water banquets for half a year without the same thing.
Today's Lu Hanjiang was taught by Meng Yuan step by step. He had already attacked Xichang before he took office. Who can guarantee that he will not be the next unlucky one.
