After entering September, the temperature in Linjiang City has dropped. At night, an occasional gust of wind brings a bit of coolness.
However, the wind seems to be particularly cold tonight.
It's so cold that it's heart-breakingly cold.
The invitation card in Zhong Liang's hand had been crumpled into a ball, and his heart was extremely cold. He looked at the empty courtyard and gritted his teeth.
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said softly: "Go and inform Mr. Gu!"
"yes."
The subordinates cupped their hands, looked at Zhong Liang with some worry, and said, "Brother, what exactly does Qi Qianyu want to do?"
Zhong Liang sighed and said: "These people are dragons crossing the river. We can't afford to offend them. I don't know what they are going to do, but they are definitely going to be detrimental to Mr. Gu. However, we have already dealt with the game at their level." I have no right to interfere, just let fate take its course!"
…
Under the night, Qi Qianyu and his party walked slowly along the long street.
Soon, someone came out of the darkness.
The person who came was none other than Shen Minghe, the Chief Minister of the Zhenfu Division. He smiled, cupped his hands, and asked, "Young Master Qi, have everything been settled?"
Qi Qianyu glanced at Shen Minghe and said disdainfully: "Why, Master Shen looks down on me so much. They are just some small gangs who cannot stand up to the stage. I can't handle it anymore?"
Shen Minghe said hurriedly: "Qi Shaoxia has misunderstood. Who are you? If you come to deal with several small gangs, you will be able to catch them easily. I am just worried that those gangs will make small moves and cause you trouble."
"Hmph," Qi Qianyu said disdainfully: "So what if you make a small move? Can you still rebel? If you hadn't looked forward and backward, I would have killed you directly. I want to see who dares to oppose me?"
"Yes, yes," Shen Minghe said quickly: "Qi Shaoxia's cultivation is unique in the world. Few people in the younger generation can make a difference, but I am holding back!"
"You're wrong," Qi Qianyu said in a deep voice, "It's not that few people of the younger generation can help me, it's that no one can help me. Looking at Yunzhou, under the Tao realm, who can be my opponent?"
Shen Minghe's mouth twitched and he complimented: "That's natural. Everyone in the world knows the name of Little Sword Spirit!"
Qi Qianyu was even more arrogant and said: "Okay, I've finished handling it here. The dozen or so gangs in Linjiang City that are somewhat powerful now will all gather at noon tomorrow. At that time, I will have the final say in Linjiang Wulin. What about you?" Bian Ye handle it well, but don't make mistakes. I don't have much patience. If Gu Zhan dares to show up to cause trouble tomorrow, I don't have the scruples you have. I will kill him with one sword. If the plan goes wrong, then It’s your business!”
Shen Minghe nodded and said: "Don't worry, Young Master Qi, I'm already ready. Gu Zhan won't have a chance to show up tomorrow."
"He should be thanking you for saving his life."
After saying that, Qi Qianyu left directly.
Seeing the back of Qi Qianyu and his group leaving, Shen Minghe snorted and said coldly: "What the hell? I really think I'm a person. I'm still invincible in the Tao realm, and I don't even take a piss to look at myself." What virtue!”
A guard next to Shen Minghe said: "Sir, this Qi Qianyu has gone too far. He doesn't take our Zhenfu Division seriously at all."
"Hmph," Shen Minghe snorted coldly and said, "You are so self-righteous. Others are using his brother Qi Baiyu's face to give him the title of Little Sword Soul. He really thinks that he came up with it himself. , if it weren’t for his brother, he would be nothing, and if he doesn’t take our Zhenfu Division seriously, is he even qualified?”
The personal guard echoed: "I have also heard many rumors. Qi Qianyu claims that he has never been defeated in the same situation. Is it because others are afraid of Qi Baiyu's reputation and deliberately let him go?"
"Release the water? Is that water?" Shen Minghe said disdainfully: "The entire East China Sea was released to him by others!"
"Forget it," Shen Minghe waved his hand and said, "Although his reputation as an invincible person is completely rubbish, no matter what, with the ninth level of innate cultivation and the help of those disciples from the great sect, he can suppress Lin. Those Jianghu gangs in Jiangcheng are still fine.
As long as he suppresses those Jianghu gangs, it is equivalent to cutting off one arm of Gu Zhan. We can also directly take action and cut off Gu Zhan's other arm. By then, he will know that he alone cannot make trouble, so we will directly take over Jin Yiwei! "
The guard nodded and said with some doubts: "My lord, I don't quite understand. Why does Prince Ling want to defeat Jimingyi? Chengyang Marquis Mansion has enjoyed the emperor's favor for generations. The White Lotus Sect won. What's wrong with them?" What are the benefits..."
"Shut up," Shen Minghe glanced at the guard and said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask. Don't ask about things you shouldn't know. Just do your job well. You are too curious. It will kill you!”
…
The next day, Qianhusuo.
Gu Zhan was busy until early in the morning last night. He only rested for two hours before getting up in a hurry.
Today there is a very important batch of military supplies that need to be sent to Jimingyi, and Gu Zhan needs to personally check and accept it.
Breakfast was very simple. I just grabbed two steamed buns and prepared to go out. As soon as I arrived at the door of the government office, I saw Rong Yichu walking over in a hurry.
"Sir, something happened!"
Gu Zhan took a bite of the steamed bun and asked, "What's wrong?"
Rong Yichu said hurriedly: "Just now, all the major gangs in the city sent people to inform them. Just last night, Qi Qianyu and a group of gangsters in Yunzhou tied up the marriage papers of the leaders of the major gangs and forced them to attend today. What kind of martial arts conference?"
Gu Zhan chewed two mouthfuls of steamed buns, frowned, and asked, "What martial arts conference?"
Rong Yichu said: "It was called by Qi Qianyu in the name of a picket team. Sir, when Qi Qianyu and his party came to Linjiang City, they clearly claimed to help defend the city, but there were dozens of them. There are still several innate warriors, but they have been staying in Linjiang City, neither going to defend the city nor cooperating with the pickets to arrest Xi Zuo. The purpose of suddenly coming here is not simple, and it is impossible for him not to know that those gangs are Your people didn't even say hello, but forced a martial arts conference to be held. I'm afraid they are targeting our Qianhu Institute."
Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes and said, "Then go and have a look."
at this time,
A guard in Jinyi suddenly ran in from outside in a panic and shouted anxiously: "Sir, let's go quickly. The pickets suddenly took several hundreds of households and are on their way over now. I'm afraid they will do something bad to you!"
fo
Gu Zhan frowned and said, "What's going on?"
The Jin Yiwei hurriedly said: "My lord, it's too late to say anything. Please leave through the back door now and go find Magistrate Yang!"
At this moment, a mighty group of people suddenly appeared at the street entrance outside the gate. They were all uniformed in black robes and embroidered with flying fish. They were the Jin Yiwei picket team.
"grown ups……"
Gu Zhan waved his hand and walked out.
Horse hooves in formation, stepping on the bluestone slab,
The ground was shaking slightly.
The leader was Shen Minghe, the official of the Zhenfu Division. He led his men on horseback to the gate of Qianhusuo. He rode on the horse, took out the token, looked down at Gu Zhan, and said in a cold voice: "Gu Zhan, listen to the order." Chen Fei, Ma Long, Malang, and Hu Sandao from hundreds of households under your command have colluded with the White Lotus Sect to plot rebellion. The evidence is now conclusive and they have been arrested. As a superior officer, you cannot absolve yourself of the blame. I now order you to be banned from the Thousand Households Residence Hall. , wait for instructions, don’t disobey!”
