Chapter 1092: Dealing With Grand Secretary Wei
“You don’t look stupid. Why are you doing so many stupid things?”
“You…”
“Tell me everything. I’ll handle the rest,” Zhang Ronghua interrupted.
Xu Xirou was quite surprised. Thinking of the hatred between him and Grand Secretary Wei, the two factions were like fire and water. She understood and immediately told him what had happened.
“You owe me your life!”
“Good!”
Zhang Ronghua went out.
Xu Xirou looked at her butt. It didn’t hurt. Then she looked at her dress. It was still intact. How could she be indifferent to such a good opportunity? Could it be that he really wasn’t the one who did it last time?
The corners of her mouth curled up as a smile appeared on her face. A crafty glint flashed across her beautiful eyes!
This place was located at the border between North City and South City, and was very close to the North City County Office. The first person to arrive was the county captain, Yao Guangming. He was Grand Secretary Wei’s student and had been transferred from the directorate to make up for Pang Qingyun’s death. The county magistrate and the chief registrar were not here, and they belonged to different factions. They guessed that there was a confrontation here. Without a clear order from the higher-ups, they would not act on their own.
The constables of the county government were brought here and surrounded the place.
Next was the general of the Fifth Division of City Defense, Zhu Bing, who had been patrolling nearby. He led his troops over and immediately ordered the area to be surrounded.
Except for them.
Su Zaitian, the vice dean of the outer court of Changqing Academy, happened to be nearby. He saw the signal flare of the Wei Family and rushed over.
“Greetings, Lord Marquis!” Zhu Bing and Yao Guangming cupped their fists and saluted.
“What happened?” Su Zaitian asked.
“Take these people down,” Zhang Ronghua ordered without even looking at him.
The two of them hesitated and stood still.
The former was the fifth division of the city defense. Although he was the head of the hussars and had the right to train, he was not a system and could not manage that side. His gaze fell on the latter.” My words are useless?”
He was not angry, but he was imposing. A huge sense of oppression came. If possible, Yao Guangming did not want to offend him, but he was Grand Secretary Wei’s disciple. Now that the two factions were in conflict, if he retreated, Grand Secretary Wei would punish him after this. He braced himself and asked,” What’s going on, Lord Marquis?”
Zhang Ronghua walked forward and stopped in front of him. Yao Guangming suppressed his fear and stood where he was, bearing the huge pressure as he looked over.
Bang!
Zhang Ronghua kicked him away and said coldly,” As a subordinate of the government office, you ignored the orders of your superiors and even dared to provoke and cover up a criminal. You will be punished for all three crimes!”
As he said this, his cold gaze landed on the constables he had brought with him.
“My words are useless?”
Some of these constables were Yao Guangming’s men, and some were not. After all, he had only been transferred here for a short time. Regardless of whether he was or not, he had to make a choice at this moment.
Grand Secretary Wei was a man of great authority. He was someone who stood at the peak of power. With just a stomp of his foot, Great Xia would be shaken. However, they were under the jurisdiction of the Shangjing government. Zhang Ronghua only needed to issue a transfer order, and he could make them suffer a fate worse than death. Even if he had to rely on Zhang Ronghua, Grand Secretary Wei would not be interested. After weighing the pros and cons, he decisively made a decision.” We will obey Lord Marquis’s orders!”
Zhu Bing said,” This is the southern part of the city. The Fifth Division of City Defense was the first to discover this. The case should be handed over to us for trial. I hope that Lord Marquis can make it convenient for us.” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
“Since when is it your turn to talk to me?”
Zhu Bing’s face was red, but his attitude was still tough. Like Yao Guangming, he did not back down.” Don’t make things difficult for us!”
Clang!
The sound of a knife being drawn rang out as the cold blade pointed.
Zhang Ronghua walked over. Zhu Bing was smart. He didn’t dare to stand still, afraid of being kicked away. His heart was heavy. If it was possible, he wouldn’t want to interfere in this matter. However, he was the man of his uncle, Zhu Congbian, and the latter was the man of Grand Secretary Wei. No matter what, he couldn’t retreat. Even if the difference between the two sides was too great, he had to stop them!
Looking at the soldiers of the Fifth Division of City Defense, Zhang Ronghua narrowed his eyes.” I am the General of the Flying Cavalry, and I am the Marquis of Nancheng. I represent Great Xia. Do you know what happens when you point a knife at me?”
Some people’s eyes flashed. This was the first time they had seen such a situation. They didn’t know what to do.
” According to the laws of Great Xia, your actions can be considered as treason and your three clans will be executed!”
“Lord Marquis, we’re only following the rules. It’s within our duties!” Zhu Bing suppressed his fear.
“I’ll give you one chance. Take him down and let bygones be bygones,” said Zhang Ronghua.
Most of the soldiers were afraid. Grand Secretary Wei was too far away, but the Marquis of Nancheng was right in front of them. If they offended Zhu Bing, they would at most be frozen and sent to the most difficult and tiring post. However, if they offended Zhang Ronghua, just as he said, the crime was very serious. They would not be able to escape the punishment of three clans!
He immediately stood up and pointed his sword at Zhu Bing.
The soldiers of the Fifth Division of City Defense were divided into two camps. One was Zhu Bing’s trusted aides, and there were very few of them. They were confronting the other group.
Zhang Ronghua ordered,”Take him down!” Those who resist, kill them on the spot!”
“Yes!”
The soldiers rushed forward and took the pills from Zhu Bing and the others.
“Stop!” Su Zaitian shouted.
Both sides subconsciously stopped. A large group of soldiers looked at Zhang Ronghua, Zhu Bing and the others looked at Su Zaitian.
The latter stepped forward with a cold expression.
Zhang Ronghua was disdainful. He placed his hands behind his back and did not give him any face at all. How dare you tell me what to do?”
The tone of the conversation changed, becoming stern and murderous.
“Is this your idea or the idea of Changqing Academy?”
” What?” Su Zaitian was furious. He suppressed his anger.” What do you mean?”
Pa! Pa!
Zhang Ronghua’s two big pockets violently slapped his face, leaving two blood-red marks. Su Zaitian was furious. The suppressed anger could not be held back anymore. His terrifying cultivation erupted and he was about to take him down.
