In the mansion of Sanchuan County Governor, Zhao Huaizhen looked at the stones in front of him with an extremely ugly expression.
He is a concubine of the Zhao family, and he has managed to reach the position of governor of a county by relying on his own talents. What troubles have he not experienced?
Even Liu Bai, who had always been at odds with nobles from aristocratic families such as Feng Quji, couldn't help but make a comment: "Whenever there is a big event, be sincere and calm."
Huai, so calm! Be true, be calm!
But today,
He panicked.
"When the alchemist was setting up the altar, could any of the people clearly read the words on the stone?"
Zhao Huaizhen asked in a deep voice.
There was actually a hint of murderous intent on his usually kind face.
"County officer, the altar of law is high and the thunder is thundering in the dark night, making it difficult for the people to see clearly."
"This fairy stone was installed by my fellow apprentices."
The young disciple wearing green robes smiled.
And behind him was the fellow apprentice who loaded the rocks with him.
This time, their master has performed a miracle, and they, the fellow apprentices, are here to receive the reward!
"in this way..."
Zhao Huaizhen closed the box and murmured to himself.
Then he walked to the bookshelf behind the desk and took out a delicate dagger, with a trace of determination flashing in his eyes.
"Uh-huh!"
A cold light flashed!
The dagger in Zhao Huaizhen's hand scratched his arm, and blood flowed gurglingly.
"Clang!"
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Huaizhen threw the dagger in front of these young disciples.
These young disciples were stunned and had no idea what the Lord Sheriff meant.
"Here comes someone! Assassination! Catch the assassin, catch the assassin! Catch the assassin, catch the assassin!"
When no one could react, Zhao Huaizhen suddenly shouted, with a hint of fear in his voice.
"quick!"
In an instant, a group of county guards broke into the hall.
"Chief Zhao...what are you..."
Before these young disciples could ask questions, Zhao Huaizhen shouted: "Capture the assassin, life or death! Zilong! Take action!"
No matter life or death!
How could his guards not know what this sentence meant?
"What an injustice! Sheriff..."
"ah!"
A series of shrill screams rang out, but they were lost in the patter of heavy rain.
After just a cup of tea, the governor's mansion was filled with the smell of blood.
"Zilong, go and invite this 'immortal master' into the governor's mansion."
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Zhao Huaizhen's face was as dark as water and he opened his mouth to give instructions.
"promise!"
Zilong left quickly, but Zhao Huaizhen's face did not show any signs of relief, but became more solemn.
This so-called 'immortal stone' is really extremely hot!
After thinking about it again and again, Zhao Huaizhen took a deep breath, picked up the brush, dipped it in the blood on the ground, took out a piece of brocade and wrote a letter.
"Send someone to go to Xianyang, and drive on a starry night, changing horses but not people. This letter must be delivered to Prime Minister Liu personally."
"If there is any obstruction from the officials along the way, I, Zhao Huaizhen, the governor of Sanchuan County, will fight to the death!"
...
"Mr. Liu, we found out!"
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xuan Qi reported respectfully.
"These people are all dead men of aristocratic families, and they are not as simple as the city management prison found out."
"There are one hundred and sixty-seven people inside Xianyang City. There are 732 people outside Xianyang City. They are the most loyal dead soldiers trained by various aristocratic families."
"As Mr. Liu expected, the Feng family is taking the lead. There are a total of sixty-three aristocratic families involved."
A series of figures were reported, and even Liu Bai, who had expected it for a long time, felt a little emotional about the family's strength.
The dead are not the kind of people who care for the hospital. But like a dragon, he dared to pick up a knife and charge at Xianyang Palace with a single order.
It is extremely difficult for these people to train one of them, but the aristocratic family has gathered nearly a thousand people in such a short period of time!
This is the confidence of the family!
Be an official in prosperous times and settle down in troubled times!
How to settle down? Land, food!
This sub-power is the foundation to protect oneself in troubled times!
"These dead soldiers are closely monitored, and the Jinyiwei's recent deployment remains unchanged so as not to alert the enemy."
"The library is being built at a fast pace, and as the time gets closer, these people become more and more panicked."
"As the art of war goes, wait for work with ease."
Liu Bai spoke leisurely, not too panicked by these small actions of the Feng family and his son.
The reason is also very simple, just five words:
This is Xianyang!
"promise!"
"Jinyiwei's recent investigation has been completed, and all personnel who may be deployed by other forces have been cleared!"
"As for Duke Liu's order to arrest the family members and send them to the Xianyang government office, they have already started recently."
Xuan Qi opened his mouth to report.
"Okay, got it!"
"By the way, Xuan Qi, there is something you need to arrange."
Liu Bai nodded and said, "Let's take a closer look at Qi Yu. My student Ying Gao doesn't know how to do things, but the various systems of the Daqin City Management Supervisor have gradually improved, which is enough to prove that this person has good abilities!"
Liu Bai also admired Qi Yu quite a lot!
For being able to invent the temporary labor system in Da Qin, this guy can be considered a genius.
Pay a little attention, and when the time comes, some opportunities will flow out from the gaps between your fingertips. Just see if you can seize them.
The more Liu Bai holds a high position, the more he understands what is the core of officialdom novels in later generations.
The so-called meteoric rise is just a little opportunity suddenly given by the superiors at the whim.
These opportunities emerge from the cracks of your fingertips, and most of those that are in your hands are given to the people around you.
Liu Bai has reached the position of prime minister, and he just relaxes his hands a little.
"promise!"
"Xuan Qi resigns!"
Xuan Qi respectfully accepted the order and prepared to retreat.
His impression of Qi Yu is quite good.
Seeing Xuan Qi preparing to leave, Liu Bai added:
"Remember, if there is a real conflict between the Jin Yiwei and these dead soldiers, they will be killed."
“Everything is self-serving first, nothing else matters.”
...
"Head! The horses' hooves are in panic, and the situation is difficult to discern!"
Outside the Great Wall of Daijun in the north, and outside the camp closest to Yanzhi Mountain, hundreds of horses were standing.
Centurion Heifu looked ferocious: "The murderous intent was so high along the way, even the wind and sand were three times more ferocious than before!"
"We can't go back to the camp!"
Wang Gang spat on the yellow sand and said nothing.
Han Xin stepped forward, grabbed Heifu's arm, and yelled: "We can't move forward! The only option is to return to Daijun at this moment!"
However, this roar did not shake Heifu in the slightest.
This tough man who fought side by side with Long Qie and never refused to lag behind to kill the enemy only had wounds on his front, but no scars on his back?
Let him withdraw now?
It was at this critical moment that even the war horses could feel it, that smoke and dust rose in the north direction.
Huns’ army of wolf soldiers!
