Han Pingzhi also didn't expect that Yang Shijun, who had always been favored by Yan Qiu, would actually be a weakling at the critical moment. Not only did he not jump over the wall and choose to fight with himself to the death, but he went uncharacteristically and became arrogant, and his words lost their previous words. Arrogant and domineering, his tone also revealed a pleading tone.
This relaxed Han Pingzhi's tense nerves, and he understood that Yang Shijun might be just a weakling who bullies the weak and fears the strong, and has no guts to mess with him.
He said coldly: "Since you don't want Mr. Yan to worry, then please ask Mr. Yang to control his subordinates. As long as this arrest mission can be a complete success, I will naturally not forget your contribution."
"Yes, Mr. Han, I understand." Being humiliated in front of someone he had looked down on before, Yang Shijun felt so ashamed that he could not raise his head. But at this moment, he could not help but vent his anger. On several subordinates.
"Why don't you get back here! I, Yang Shijun, am an upright man and am willing to admit defeat. Even if it is finally proven that Zhou really killed the supreme Taoist, I will die without any regrets and there is no need for you to solve my troubles with conspiracy and tricks. ."
Yang Shijun roared at the four white-clothed guards.
The four white-clothed guards were so angry that we made this move to save your life. But after it was exposed, not only did you not save us, but you also added insult to injury under the pressure of others. Put all the blame on us and talk about yourself like a saint. If you are really so brave, you should have stopped us as soon as you saw us sneaking out just now.
The four people returned to their original positions angrily, with expressions on their faces all cold and abnormal. Although their hearts were full of anger, they could not do anything at this moment, because although their hearts were full of contempt and hatred for Yang Shijun, After all, he was still their boss in name, and on the surface they still didn't dare to disobey Yang Shijun.
After all, although the White Guards organization is ruthless and fiercely competitive, it is also hierarchical and subordinates must obey their superiors unconditionally. If there is even the slightest disrespect, they will be severely punished and may even lose their lives.
Seeing such a funny scene, several father-in-laws felt funny in their hearts, but also felt a lot of contempt. At the same time, they were all curious in their hearts, how could Yan Qiu, the most favored person in front of the emperor, have such unbearable subordinates? Not only were they low in ability , and is despicable and shameless. For his own selfish interests, he can use any low-level and shameless means.
On the contrary, Zhou Ming, who is famous all over the world, not only looks talented, but also seems to be very capable. He has accomplished such things at a young age and his future is limitless.
In the strong contrast, several father-in-laws had an infinite fondness for Yi Ming, and at the same time they all made a determination in their hearts. If they encountered a conflict between the white-clothed guards and Yi Ming in the future, as long as it was within their own capabilities, , must help Yi Ming and leave a way out for himself.
Seeing that Yang Shijun bowed his head in front of him, Han Pingzhi did not want to make things happen. As the saying goes, killing can only be done with a nod of the head. Even if Yang Shijun did not pass this level and was willing to admit defeat in the end and was killed by Zhou Ming, he would still want to do it. To save some face for Yan Qiu, he decided to let Yang Shijun and his men go for the time being.
In fact, the issue he is most concerned about right now is not Yang Shijun's life or death, nor whether Zhou Yiming will win the gamble. The issue he is most concerned about is whether the supreme Taoist has escaped, which is directly related to whether he can be promoted and make a fortune. .
"Brother Zhou, it's a good thing that you reacted quickly, otherwise our work would have been in vain. Not only would we not be able to complete this arrest mission, but we would also be punished by the court." Han Pingzhi walked up to Yi Ming again and said seriously, "Just now You haven't finished speaking yet, please continue speaking and tell us all how you finally defeated the flying knifeman's flying knife."
Zhou Yiming originally thought that Han Pingzhi would take advantage of this opportunity to continue to suppress Yang Shijun, but unexpectedly, he actually stopped. Although he felt disappointed, Zhou Ming also understood that an old man in officialdom like Han Pingzhi would do anything. Leave yourself some room and you will never do anything wrong.
Zhou Yiming smiled bitterly and continued what he had just said. When he told how he resisted the two flying knives of the Supreme Taoist at the critical moment, and finally turned defeat into victory, everyone present was frightened, because everyone understood, The reason why Zhou Ming was able to escape this disaster was that his martial arts cultivation and perception were of course very important, but the more important aspect was that luck was on his side.
If the Supreme Taoist's luck had been slightly better, Yi Ming would have been dead for a long time.
"As for why I didn't get the Supreme Taoist's body back, it's actually very simple." Zhou Ming continued, "The virtuous woman who was kidnapped by the Supreme Taoist was in Peach Blossom Temple. Seeing that it was already dark, I was afraid that in the Taoist temple After the Taoist priest woke up and found the woman, it would be detrimental to him, and once the woman's identity was spread, it would be difficult for her to behave in the future.
So after killing the Supreme Taoist, I immediately returned to Peach Blossom Temple and then sent the woman home safely.
After doing this, I was afraid that Mr. Han would be anxious if the delay was too long, so I hurried back to resume my life. "
After everyone listened to Zhou Ming's narration, they all felt that it was clear and logical, and it didn't look like a lie at all.
Yang Shijun's face became more and more ugly, because he knew very well that Yi Ming could say these words, and his tone was always confident when he spoke. This fully proved that the supreme Taoist had been killed by him, and he The bet with him is bound to fail.
Yang Shijun trembled all over when he thought of his head being picked off by Zhou Ming. However, he was not completely desperate at this time. He had always been lucky in his heart, hoping that Zhou Ming would not be in the grove during this period. If a ferocious beast could come and eat the body of the Supreme Taoist, then what Zhou Ming said would be untrue. At that time, not only would he be able to save his life, but he would also be able to kill Zhou Ming.
After Han Pingzhi heard what Zhou Yiming said, he danced happily. After spinning around three times, he grabbed Zhou Yan Yiming's shoulders and said, "Brother Zhou, you are great for being able to defeat a powerful force in such a dangerous situation." The enemy has protected the safety of our capital city and the face of our great Chu country.
Don't worry, when I report this case to the court, I will report your merits truthfully and ask the court to reward you greatly. "
"Thank you, Mr. Han!" Zhou Ming cupped his fists and quickly thanked him.
The father-in-laws who had been watching the show were all happy for Zhou Ming when they saw this scene, because not only could Zhou Ming get a reward this time, but they could also bring good news to the emperor.
Several father-in-laws quickly gathered around and congratulated Zhou Ming.
Zhou Yiming socialized carefully and did not dare to show any slightness to the policemen in the palace.
Several white-clothed guards under Yang Shijun were very unconvinced when they saw Yi Ming's success. Moreover, they also felt that the reason why Yi Ming was able to defeat the Supreme Taoist was purely due to luck. If it were them, they could do the same. arrive.
They were originally in a bad mood, but when they saw the frowning Yang Shijun next to them, their mood immediately improved, because they suddenly discovered that the most unlucky person in the main government office at the moment was not them, but Yang Shijun.
As long as the body of the Supreme Taoist is brought back for a while, Yang Shijun's life may be taken away by Yi Ming at any time.
While Han Pingzhi was happy, he did not forget about the business. After Yi Ming finished being polite with those father-in-laws, he hurriedly said to Yi Ming: "Brother Zhou, this case is of great importance. To prevent long nights and dreams, please tell me, Supreme Taoist, immediately. Where is his body now, I will send someone to carry him back immediately."
As soon as these words were spoken, the ears of Yang Shijun and the white-clothed guards perked up. They knew in their hearts that as long as they heard where the body was hidden, they would still have room to save everything.
Zhou Yiming was shocked. He didn't understand why Han Pingzhi asked this question in front of everyone. Could it be that he wanted to help Yang Shijun?
Zhou Yiming did not answer Han Pingzhi's question, but looked at Yang Shijun and the others with a troubled look on his face.
Han Pingzhi was smart. When he saw Yi Ming like this, he immediately understood that the question he asked was abrupt and the situation was wrong. At least he couldn't ask it in front of Yang Shijun and the others.
He smiled helplessly and hurriedly said to Zhou Ming: "Brother Zhou, don't think too much, Yang was too happy at the moment and forgot some taboos, please forgive me brother.
I also know that Brother Zhou has a lot of concerns, but I can guarantee here that even if you tell Mr. Yang the location of the body in front of him, he will never destroy it. "
Yang Shijun was shocked, thinking, does this old Han have so much confidence in me? Did he want to save me?
The guards in white clothes were also confused and didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Han Ping's gourd.
Zhou Yiming also looked at Han Pingzhi with puzzled eyes, hoping that he could give him a clear explanation.
"Master Han, how do you say this?"
"Brother Zhou, don't you understand this?" Han Pingzhi smiled mysteriously, then deliberately raised his voice and said, "As long as the body of the Supreme Taoist is not recovered, Master Yang and his men cannot leave the Yamen of the General Affairs Office for half a day. step."
Yang Shijun, who had regained hope of survival, was completely devastated when he heard these words, thinking that it was over now. Han Pingzhi completely ignored his previous friendship with him. Not only did he not intend to rescue him, but he added insult to injury. , in order to help Yi Ming, but even at the expense of restricting the freedom of himself and his subordinates, this is simply pushing himself to death.
Han Pingzhi made such a promise to himself, and Yi Ming without hesitation directly told the location of the Supreme Taoist's body, and reminded Han Pingzhi that the person sent to move the body must be very reliable.
