As soon as Ling Jing finished speaking, the hall fell into dead silence.
Although Ling Jing smiled when he spoke and spoke tactfully, the people present were all smart people and could all hear that Ling Jing was threatening Gu Zhan.
A naked threat.
Gu Zhan could naturally hear what Ling Jing meant, which was a warning to him to stop as soon as he got good.
There was a deathly silence in the hall.
Ling Jing took a sip of wine with a smile and said, "Gu Qianhu, what do you think of this sentence?"
Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "Thank you, Prince Ling, for your advice. I think this sentence is correct..."
Ling Jing chuckled,
However, Gu Zhan went on to say: "However, I also have two words for Prince Ling. Please listen carefully, Prince Ling.
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
The common man was so angry that his blood spattered five steps! "
The atmosphere in the hall became even more depressing.
Ling Jing's smile suddenly froze, and his face gradually turned ugly.
The threat from Gu Zhan's words was more direct than his words!
At this moment, Yang Yunzhi suddenly said: "Everyone knows each other, let's have a banquet. If we wait any longer, the dishes will get cold!"
"Yes, yes, let's have a banquet!"
"I've been hungry for a long time."
"..."
As Yang Yunzhi came out to smooth things over, other government officials also began to change the subject.
Because of the conflict between Gu Zhan and Ling Jing, the banquet ended hastily before it lasted long.
It only takes a stick of incense,
They dispersed one after another,
Ling Jing and others were led by the government officials to leave and go to the accommodation that had been arranged.
Gu Zhan also followed a group of officials out of the government office.
When he was about to get into the carriage,
General Li Feng Jing Zhan came over from nowhere and shouted: "Gu Qianhu."
Gu Zhan cupped his hands and said, "General Jing."
A smile appeared on Jing Zhan's face and he said: "It's rare for today's Jin Yiwei to have someone as tough as Mr. Gu. It makes me feel a little emotional, and I feel like I'm back in my childhood. At that time, all the Jin Yiwei looked like Gu. Your Majesty, although the reputation of the Jin Yiwei at that time was very bad, it prevented a lot of nonsense in the court. If the Jin Yiwei is still like this today, Longguan will not be lost this time!"
Gu Zhan asked: "Are today's Jin Yiwei very bad?"
Jing Zhan smiled and said: "Just now during the banquet, Qi Qianyu dared to say the words of the imperial eagle to you. As you can imagine, you have been in Linjiang City, and it is not so obvious that you are in Yunzhou. In such a big place, Jin Yiwei really only has one name left."
At this point, Jing Zhan paused and said, "I take the liberty of interrupting, just to remind Mr. Gu to pay attention recently. You have offended the Prince of Chengyang by threatening him in public today, so be careful of his revenge.
I'm afraid you don't know Jin Yiwei's current situation, so I'd like to remind you that with Jin Yiwei's current state, Ling Jing won't have any scruples. If he retaliates against you, even if he leaves some evidence, it won't hurt him. Jinyiwei doesn't dare to pursue it, so you must be on guard. "
Gu Zhan nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for reminding me."
Jing Zhan patted Gu Zhan on the shoulder with a smile and said: "You have such cultivation at a young age and your talent is good. Don't waste your talent. As long as you are strong enough, let alone Ling Jing, even Ling Jing Even if his father is here, he won’t dare to offend you!”
After all,
Jing Zhan got on his horse and left.
"This General Jing is a man with a cold face and a warm heart!" Rong Yichu walked up to Gu Zhan and said softly.
Gu Zhan nodded and said: "I just didn't expect that the Jin Yiwei today would be even more depressed than I imagined. No wonder the dignified minister actually wanted to curry favor with Ling Jing."
Rong Yichu thought for a moment and said, "Sir, General Jing's reminder must be taken seriously."
Gu Zhan sneered and said, "This is Linjiang City. If Ling Jing dares to reach out, I will chop off his arm too!"
…
Linjiang City, in a manor.
Ling Jing came in with a group of Jianghu people and Yunzhou Jinyiwei's troops.
In a hall,
Ling Jing, Qi Qianyu and Shen Minghe, the governor of the town, sat together and discussed.
Qi Qianyu said angrily: "Your Majesty, Gu Zhan, the frog in the well, is too arrogant. He simply doesn't take you seriously and dares to threaten you in public. You must not let him go easily!"
Ling Jing snorted coldly and said: "He is indeed a careless person. After staying in Linjiang City for a long time, he really thought that there was only this one-third of an acre in the world. However, we have business matters, so we will stay here for the time being. His life is worthless, if we kill him now, Jing Zhan will definitely take advantage of this matter to make trouble for me and force me to leave, so we can’t kill him directly for the time being!”
Qi Qianyu said angrily: "Then let him live a little longer, it will really be an advantage for him!"
Shen Minghe, the minister on the side, said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qi, with your status, there is no need to get angry with such people. It will not be worthwhile if it delays the business."
Ling Jing nodded and asked, "How is the investigation going for you?"
Shen Minghe said: "The investigation has made it clear that the only one responsible for logistics this time is Jin Yiwei, because there was a turmoil in Linjiang City not long ago, and the government office has not recovered yet. Only Jin Yiwei can still operate normally in the city."
Ling Jing narrowed his eyes and said: "So, as long as the Jin Yiwei is controlled, the lifeline of the logistics is directly controlled."
Shen Minghe nodded and said, "Basically, yes. However, many Jianghu gangs in Linjiang City are also helping to prepare and transport military supplies. Although Gu Zhan is arrogant, he does have some strength. He is considered a black and white man in Linjiang City. Eat, Jin Yiwei is firmly controlled by him, and he is somewhat of a leader in the world."
Ling Jing narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Then pull out his teeth. My status makes it inconvenient to end immediately. I will leave the matter here to you two. Qian Yu, you are responsible for cutting off Gu Zhan's connection with the Jianghu gang." , and Shen Qianshi, you are responsible for controlling Jin Yiwei,
This matter is not difficult for you. Qian Yu, you are well-known in the world, and you have people from other major factions assisting you. It is easy to take down the major gangs in Linjiang City in a short time. And Shen Qianshi, you are from the town. Fu Si had a higher official position than Gu Zhan, so it was not difficult to suppress him. "
Qi Qianyu said disdainfully: "The Jianghu gangs in Linjiang City are all low-class gangs who cannot stand up to the stage. They are not even in the Xiantian realm. If I, Qi Qianyu, come forward, they will not dare to disobey."
Shen Minghe smiled and said, "It's a bit more troublesome for me here. After all, it's the government, and we can't be as straight-forward as Jianghu gangs. However, Gu Zhan is able to control the Jinyiwei only by relying on his group of confidants. As long as these people are eliminated, , Gu Zhan is useless!"
