"What? The Henan Road pacifier who died of a sudden illness in his post last year was actually done by you. Didn't he die of a sudden illness? You are so brave, you actually dared to attack the first constitution along the way. And you actually covered it up afterwards. It's so perfect. Are the Ministry of Punishment, Yushitai, and Dali Temple all blind? And the old man's North and South Zhenfusi didn't notice it at all?"
Huang Qiong was already extremely shocked with just a few words from this woman's confession. What is the pacifier? It is the first constitution of Daqi to govern the place. The local administration of Daqi is divided into four levels: road, prefecture, prefecture, and county. Roads have pacification envoys in charge of civil affairs, finance, academic administration, and justice. In addition to the censor responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, he is directly responsible to the censor station.
The rest of the transfer envoys, inspection envoys, and academic administrators are all under him. There is even some control over the power of the Jiedushi of the First Guard Army. It's very simple. Each route of the Daqi local guard has one Jiedushi envoy, two deputy envoys, and two Jiedu Tongzhi. The Jiedushi envoy and the deputy envoy of Jiedu were under the control of the Ministry of War, but Tongzhi of Jiedu was under the control of the envoy to appease.
Even if there is an imperial edict from the imperial court, the Jiedushi envoy still needs the countersignature of the pacification envoy to mobilize troops, otherwise the Jiedushi envoy will not be able to mobilize the troops. The most important thing is that it is set up by every second and third government and is responsible for the supervision, food and salary of the local guards in each government, and is in charge of the military preparations of each state government. Although it was sent by the Ministry of War, it was under the jurisdiction of the pacification envoy.
The pacifiers along the way were not only high-ranking and powerful officials of the imperial court, but they also usually held the title of Yushi of the Right Capital. Moreover, it has been a custom since the Gaozong Dynasty that those who serve as pacifiers must be born in the second rank of Jinshi. Those who have not served as passing envoys are not allowed to worship the prime minister, and they are not allowed to serve as ministers or ministers.
These are enough to illustrate the importance of the position of pacifier. In Da Qi's officialdom, the pacifier can be said to be a link between past and present. The dignified pacifier was unexpectedly assassinated in office. Such a huge case turned a blind eye to the fact that the prosecutors, prosecutors and prison officials in charge of the entire judicial process, as well as the central punishment department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai turned a blind eye. Could it be that these people really have great eyes and hands?
It was not only Huang Qiong who was shocked by the confessions of the two women, but also Fan Jian beside him. Compared with the deepening of the city, the shock in Huang Qiong's heart only flashed across his face for a moment. Fan Jianke did not have such deep cultivation: "What, Li Zhen, a great scholar from Bianzhou who died of a sudden illness last year, actually died in your hands?"
"Who the hell is the master behind you? Do you know who Li Zhen is? He is a famous scholar in the world, and he has three thousand disciples. There are at least four officials who have passed the Jinshi in each subject on Henan Road. Cheng is his student. This person's reputation in Confucianism is such that even the emperor must give him courtesy."
"Such a great Confucian died in your hands. There are hundreds of officials up and down the Henan Road, but none of his three thousand disciples were held accountable? The inspectors, prison envoys, and patrol officers on the Henan Road What the hell do censors do for food? Are they really all blind?"
Fan Jian didn't have Huang Qiong's scruples. After learning the shocking news, he shouted out the anger in his heart. Although he didn't know who this Li Zhen was, looking at Fan Jian's face that was a little out of shape due to anger, Huang Qiong knew that this person was probably of great importance. At least in the Confucian world, he is definitely an important person.
Looking at the stunned Fan Jian, Huang Qiong shook his head. He said to the two sisters opposite: "I tell you, not to mention others, just assassinating the envoys along the way is enough for your Baishatang to confiscate your family and exterminate your clan ten times. The master behind you is so audacious, are you so willing to be rebellious? You know it's a capital crime, but you still do these things for him?"
Hearing Huang Qiong's inquiry and looking at Fan Jian's angry and twisted face over there, the sister was frightened and said: "How Baishatang turned to that person is not something ordinary disciples like us can know. All the secrets are in the master's grasp, even his direct disciples don't know."
Speaking of this, as if she remembered something, a trace of fear appeared on this woman's originally calm face. From the expression on his face, this fear was even more terrifying than what Huang Qiong had brought to them. After a long time, he sighed and said: "I will never forget what happened that night. I'm afraid everyone in Baisha Hall will also not forget what happened that night."
"I have never thought that Baishatang, which has always been known for its concentricity, would actually have comrades fighting against each other. I never thought that the master uncle would actually use officers and soldiers to cleanse his fellow sects and his biological brothers. When I I can still never forget the disbelieving look in Fourth Master Uncle's eyes when I saw the sword in the hands of the Master Master being inserted into Fourth Master Uncle's chest."
"You know, the fourth uncle was the brother of the master uncle, and he died under his brother's sword. There were several other uncles who either died under the sword of the master master, or died in Under the knife of officers and soldiers. I couldn’t even believe at the time that the scene I saw was real.”
"It wasn't until I saw the brothers who had objections to the master's decision fell to the swords of the officers and soldiers one after another that I realized that what I saw at that time was true. After the cannibalism that night, my master There are thirteen people in our generation. Apart from the head master, my master, who is the most skilled in martial arts, broke out and ended up unknown, leaving only five masters and uncles."
"If it weren't for the third uncle in Baisha Hall, who has always been closest to the master uncle, to intercede. Perhaps the master master thought that our martial arts were low and we were a little young at that time. We would not bring any trouble or threat to him. He was merciful and let us go because we were still useful to him."
"I'm afraid that if you want to eradicate the roots and slaughter other disciples of your uncle who don't agree with the methods of the master, you will definitely not leave our sisters behind. After that night, once Baishatang, which is said to have two hundred disciples, only has less than half of them left."
"After setting a fire to destroy the corpses and eliminate traces, we surviving disciples were taken away from Zhengzhou Mansion by the head master and his uncles who advanced and retreated with him, and entered the Chaya Mountains. Inexplicably, we became, A member of the Thirteen Iron-Blooded Battalion who specializes in eliminating dissidents for King Jing."
"The Thirteen Iron-Blooded Battalions are people recruited by King Jing from all over the world to engage in spying, assassination and other matters for King Jing. These thirteen battalions have no contact with each other and all act independently. How many people are there in each battalion? We have no idea what kind of people are among them. And it was originally from the 12th Battalion, but it was changed to the 13th Battalion after we arrived at Baisha Hall."
"After arriving at Chaya Mountain, we sisters and several beautiful senior sisters in the hall, in addition to receiving assassination training like other disciples, were also singled out to receive some humiliating treatment. We were dressed the same as if we were not wearing any clothes every day. Training in seduction skills. No one has ever asked us if we are willing to receive this kind of training that only brothel prostitutes need."
"There once was a senior sister who disobeyed and was almost beaten to death in front of us. Their method of punishing people is very terrifying. It makes people miserable, but no wounds can be seen on the surface. If she hadn't been needed, she would still be needed. She is very skilled, and my senior sister is also extremely beautiful. I am afraid she has long been thrown into the prostitute tent specially set up for those assassins in the training camp."
"As for the Thirteenth Iron-Blooded Battalion, it is nominally under the command of King Jing. But I know that King Jing cannot command this Thirteenth Iron-Blooded Battalion at all. Even the guards around King Jing cannot make the decision himself. Those people only listen to one person, but this person never shows up in the Thirteenth Iron-Blooded Battalion. His control over the Thirteenth Battalion is all through the confidants around him."
"The reason why I know this is because the woman who trained us in the art of charm is one of the very few people in the Thirteenth Iron-Blooded Battalion who has direct contact with that person. That woman disappears for three to five days every month. After she comes back , Occasionally, some fragments of words will be leaked. Although it is not much, you can still hear some things as long as you pay attention."
At this point, the woman raised her head and looked in front of her. After hearing her words, Huang Qiong, whose face was as dark as water, said: "Your Majesty, we have already told you everything we know. Our brothers and sisters are not really working for them. Yes, it’s just that the situation forced me to do it. As long as you promise to let go of my brothers and sisters, we sisters will kill or hack you."
"It's not that we haven't thought about getting rid of them, but their control is too tight. Unless we go on a mission, we have no chance to escape. But every time we go on a mission, they always put their confidants to closely monitor us. They are the threats before That person of Third Master Uncle. If we want to escape, we may not even be able to escape from Henan Road."
"There once was a senior brother who really couldn't stand their control. He took advantage of the opportunity to run away on a mission and had already reached Wuchang Mansion, but he was still captured by them. Moreover, he was brought back by the government officials using the power of the government. After he came back, he was stabbed alive in front of us. From then on, no one thought about escaping, or even thought about it."
When this woman said this, Huang Qiong remained silent and just kept tapping on the desk with her fingers. King Jing's rebellion had some hidden agenda, and Huang Qiong had already been mentally prepared. But I didn't expect that the background of this rebellion would be so complicated. Even the guards around him can't make the decision, which obviously shows that King Jing has been controlled.
But who is this person who controls King Jing? He actually has such skill to control a legitimate prince and the current prince so tightly that he can even make him acquiesce without saying a word? If King Jing is like this, then is the situation similar to King Duan of Ruzhou? Who is this person? His methods are so terrifying.
Huang Qiong said nothing, while Fan Jian and Liu Hu were busy digesting the information and did not want to speak. The other was stunned and didn't know what to say. The two women opposite looked at Huang Qiong opposite him carefully, fearing that Huang Qiong would regret it and they did not dare to speak. For a moment, Guanlou fell into a strange kind of calm.
This calm was not broken until the arrival of Zhao Wushu and Wang Dalong, who returned happily. Seeing the two people beaming with joy, Huang Qiong knew that the results of this attack should be considerable. Otherwise, Wang Dalong would be fine. Zhao Wusha, who was always reserved and somewhat young and mature, would not look so happy.
Looking at the two people who came in, and looking at the two women in front of him, Huang Qiong waved his hand and said to Liu Hu: "Go and untie the ropes that bind them, take them to the Dutong Yamen and keep them under close surveillance. Wait until this rebellion is suppressed." After the operation is over, go directly to the British Prince's Palace. Remember, you can't let them run away, nor can you let them die. If you are worried, you can seal off their skills first."
After the two girls were escorted away by Liu Hu, Huang Qiong smiled at Zhao Wuye and said, "It's okay, come and tell me how the battle is going. It's okay. I've been thinking about it since I left. Now that Wuyi has returned victoriously, this experience Should I share it with you? I am open to learning with an open mind, and I hope you won’t hide anything."
