There was a sudden silence in the hall,
All the censors were stunned. After a while, one of the censors shouted: "Wu Yang, you..."
"Puff"
At this moment, an arrow flew from the secret and inserted directly into the censor's mouth.
at the same time,
A large group of masters suddenly rushed out from inside and outside the hall, directly attacking the censors.
In an instant, the sound of fierce fighting and wailing sounded.
Wu Yang gently patted the frightened maid, and walked out of the door slowly.
At this time, the clouds opened and the fog dispersed,
There is a ray of sunshine falling on the world, and a rainbow hangs high.
Wu Yang stood quietly with his hands behind his hands.
There was fighting in the hall behind them, and fighting broke out in several courtyards at the same time.
However, it did not last long, and soon, the entire government office became quiet.
People from several compounds came to report.
Second Master Wu walked to Wu Yang and said softly: "Brother, there are five censors and sixty-three guards, none of them are left."
Wu Yang nodded and said: "The news is sealed."
"I know." Mr. Wu nodded.
Wu Yang glanced back at the corpses in the hall, snorted coldly, and said: "The imperial court of Great Xia is full of these moths, it's already rotten!"
Second Master Wu frowned and said, "Brother, will this sudden action affect our plan?"
"It doesn't matter," Wu Yang shook his head and said: "The rain has been delayed for a long time, and the plan has already started. Waiting for these censors to come is just to paralyze Gu Zhan and some people who are interested. Now, the plan has been started. , it’s time to show off, alas, Gu Zhan is a young man with great potential, I really hope he can understand current affairs!"
Mr. Wu nodded and suddenly asked: "Brother, since these censors have been dealt with directly, does Yang Yunzhi still keep them?"
"There is no need to keep him," Wu Yang said. "The reason why I kept Yang Yunzhi was to deal with these censors. Alas, I originally thought of taking Linjiang City in a peaceful way, but I didn't expect that these censors wanted to die. Look. Some blood must be shed now, and if that's the case, there's no need for Yang Yunzhi to stay, let's deal with it as soon as possible!"
"Yes." Mr. Wu cupped his hands and turned around.
…
At night,
In the dungeon, Yang Yunzhi looked at Bai Ling and the medicine bottle on the table and smiled.
He stood up and straightened his clothes, and after arranging the pens, inks, papers and inkstones on the table, he slowly picked up the bottle of poison and drank it in one gulp.
Soon after,
A group of jailers came out from the dungeon carrying a coffin, and there was a new grave in the mass grave on the outskirts of the city.
In the middle of the night, the wind blows from the mass graves,
There were white sails and tattered coffins everywhere, and because it had rained for several days, a lot of dead bones washed out of the mud.
In the middle of the night,
Several dark figures appeared in the mass grave. Those shovels and hoes came to Yang Yunzhi's new grave. The leader was Yuan Xing, Yang Yunzhi's master who had been missing for many days.
"Dig!" Yuan Xing whispered.
Several people dug quickly,
Soon, the newly buried coffin was dug out.
Yuan Xing took a deep breath and slowly pushed the coffin open.
Under the weak firelight, Yang Yunzhi's seven orifices were bleeding and his lips were blue, but his expression was very peaceful.
"Sir...you have suffered!"
Yuan Xing choked up and knelt beside the coffin.
The night wind blew, a bit cold, and the torch suddenly went out.
At that moment,
Yang Yunzhi in the coffin suddenly opened his eyes.
…
in the evening,
A team of police officers came from the government office and delivered an invitation to Gu Zhan.
In the eucalyptus room,
Rong Yichu sat opposite Gu Zhan, cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations, sir, for being promoted to Qianhu. In less than two years, Xiaoqi has been promoted to Qianhu. Looking at the whole Yunzhou, that is rare. Sir, you have a bright future." !”
Gu Zhan smiled slightly and said, "We haven't received the letter of appointment yet, so everything is still unknown."
Rong Yichu smiled and said: "Who else can be in Linjiang County today besides you? At the banquet at noon tomorrow, the letter of appointment will definitely be handed over to you."
Gu Zhan smiled slightly and placed the invitation on the table.
This invitation was sent by the government office, inviting him to the government office at noon tomorrow to attend the reception banquet of the Censorship Group. Of course, the main purpose was to accept the appointment of the Censorship Group, and to report on his duties.
Yunzhou Shuntian Mansion is the state capital and oversees dozens of counties in Yunzhou. The management of each county on weekdays mainly relies on inspections by various parties from the Yushitai, including but not limited to the government office, Jinyiwei, and other local agencies. It is inspected and managed by Yushitai.
In fact, this authority used to belong to the Jin Yiwei, who was responsible for supervising all officials and patrolling the world. However, in recent decades, the Jin Yiwei has become more and more depressed. The power of all parties has been taken away, and only local authorities are left, reduced to the need The small power to maintain order was snatched from the hands of the Inspection Department of the government office, but it was still subject to the supervision of the Yushitai, and the glory was long gone.
However, this is the general trend and has nothing to do with Gu Zhan.
Although Jin Yiwei is now in decline, he still has considerable influence in local counties and is still one of the giants. With his current status, he does not need to consider the scandalous things at Jin Yiwei headquarters.
"Yichu, after I leave tomorrow, you will have to work hard for the affairs of Qianhu Office." Gu Zhan said.
Rong Yichu smiled faintly and said: "Whatever you say, sir, this is what students should do. However, sir, Linjiang City is not at peace now. You will need to bring more guards tomorrow.
Although you, sir, are highly cultivated, it is easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows. You are now in a high position and there are many people watching you. You must be on guard against thieves who take desperate risks. "
Gu Zhan nodded slightly.
He knew this very well. He had made countless enemies along the way, many of whom he had never even heard of. During this period, many people had assassinated him.
…
The next day, early morning.
Gu Zhan left Qianhusuo just after finishing breakfast.
A guard of numbers thirty or forty surrounded the carriage and slowly headed towards the government office.
The journey was uneventful until we arrived at the government office.
Today's government office has experienced a turmoil not long ago. Although it has resumed operation, it always feels a bit deserted.
Gu Zhan led people all the way to a hall.
At this time, there were many people sitting in the hall, and many officials from the government office were here.
After Gu Zhan sat down, he looked around, and looked at Wu Yang who was sitting on the main seat with some doubts, and said doubtfully: "Master Wu, isn't this a welcome banquet for the Imperial Censorship Group today? Why don't you see everyone from the Censorship Group?" grown ups?"
Wu Yang smiled slightly and said, "Master Gu misunderstood, this banquet is specially held for you."
Gu Zhan frowned, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in his heart.
If you come out to fool around, you will have to pay back everything.
In the past, I would give Hongmen Banquet to others.
Today, this may be a banquet given by others!
