Chapter 460 The situation has changed
After a long time of silence, Yu Wuya sighed and said, "My benefactor, Guiguzi is mysterious and no one can see his true face. There is only a foggy canyon deep in Yunmeng, and there is a cave inside. It is said that Guiguzi's seclusion place is like a maze inside. People call it Guigu Cave. When Gai Nie entered Guigu Cave Middle School and learned the unpredictable swordsmanship of gods and ghosts. After coming out of the mountain, he chased Mangshan for three days and three nights, killing a 10-meter-long black dragon and became famous in one fell swoop. But he didn't expect that he would become the guard of Gongsun Beiyan, and he looked like an old farmer. If I knew that he was Gai Nie at that time, it would be great that he would have escaped early..."
Chen Xu was covered in black and asked with laughter and cry: "Brother Yu, what happened that day? How did you meet them?"
Yu Wuya twitched gently and said, "That day, I was going to walk along the mountain path through Funiu Mountain to Lushan to find the master, but when I was passing by the ancient pines, I saw a few people walking down the lower road. I thought they were woodcutters who were harvesting wood in the mountains, but their words caught my attention. When they mentioned the wedding of Qinghehou in Wancheng, I followed them secretly. There were a large number of people in a group, and they also brought bows and arrows, and several of them were obvious.
He is a master among the ordinary people, so I didn't dare to be careless, but after passing through the canyon, I was discovered by those people, so I fought and injured several of them. But they were many. Just as I was about to escape, a farmer came up with a sword. I didn't care at that time, but I was not careful that the sword would be chopped off the horse, and even the iron sword was gone. The internal organs were like they were fried. They fainted without a breath..."
Chen Xu:...
"If I knew that the farmer was Gai Nie, I would definitely not be so careless. Although Gai Nie was powerful, he would not have chopped me like this with one sword. It was too... too embarrassing!" Yu Wuya's handsome face was twisted and ugly like a shoehorn.
Chen Xu didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort him, "Since you said that Gai Nie's martial arts skills are about to catch up with your senior brother, and he is not mentally prepared, and it is not unfair to be injured. You should take good care of your illness. I will get married tomorrow, and then I will stay in Xiaohe Village for two or three days and then go back to Xianyang together. When you arrive in Xianyang, you will be able to treat you well. You will definitely recover in a short while!"
"My benefactor, I was locked in a pigpen. I heard them talking about something in a daze. Those people might make trouble in Wancheng while their benefactor and his junior sister got married!" Yu Wuya reminded.
"I already know this. The group of bandits led by Ran Chi. After failing to assassinate the emperor, they hid in Funiu Mountain. Moreover, they had been camping in that cave for many years. They had gathered many talented people from the first six countries under their command. Gongsun Beiyan might have colluded with him. I have already found out the matter clearly. They might take the opportunity to burn the granary in Nanyang for tomorrow's wedding, but I have already arranged it, don't worry!"
"That's good!" Yu Wuya breathed a sigh of relief, but when Chen Xu was about to leave, "My bet, be careful of another person, maybe it was sent by Zhao Gao to deal with Mr. Eng!"
"Who?" Chen Xu asked in a daze.
"When I was saving Shang Tu, that person was a subordinate of Zhao Gao. He had great skills, but he walked with Gongsun Beiyan and others. Although he didn't see it very clearly at the beginning, his figure and voice could roughly tell that he was the same person!"
"In other words, this time Ran Chin and Gongsun Beiyan colluded to make trouble in Wancheng, and Zhao Gao was also involved?" Chen Xu said with a serious expression on his face.
"I guess that's the case. Zhao Gao hated his benefactor and me to the core. This time I returned to Nanyang early, and his benefactor would come back to get married later. Zhao Gao must have made some arrangements. There is more than a month in between, which is enough for him to operate secretly. Didn't his benefactor always want to move Zhao Gao down? If he could capture Zhao Gao, his subordinate this time, he might be somewhat sure!"
This news from Yu Wuya was definitely a thunderous discovery for Chen Xu, which suddenly made him excited.
If Zhao Gao can be captured and prove to the emperor that Zhao Gao secretly colluded with Ran Chi to try to burn the Nanyang Cang, the emperor would inevitably be furious, and Meng Yi would also inevitably take action. It can be said that stepping on Zhao Gao to death is a natural thing.
But if you want to do this so that Zhao Gao has no chance to escape, it is better to burn the granary. Without sufficient losses, the emperor may not kill Zhao Gao.
What's more, this person is just a subordinate of Zhao Gao. He may be a deceased soldier or a shadow subordinate, and is specifically responsible for handling difficult things. Once he is exposed, he may be a ruthless person who will give him a crack. It is difficult to capture him alive. What's more, Ran Chi is also a martial arts master himself, and there are also a group of dead and hard reactionaries who are preparing to dig up the Qin Dynasty. The most terrifying thing is that there are super experts like Gai Nie who fights against a hundred...
"Hiss~~"
Chen Xu took a breath of cold air, and instantly read the matter in his mind, and found that the matter had become more difficult, as if it had exceeded his control.
...
The room in Jiangbeiting's mansion was the last time, and the surrounding area was still tightly guarded. The county magistrates who were rushing to see that something big seemed to have happened on Chen Xu's face.
Chen Xu had already had two cups of tea with Jiang Beiting, but Chen Xu didn't say a word. Jiang Beiting was not easy to ask, so he could only wait anxiously.
Until Gao Yong and Wang Li arrived, Chen Xu's eyes swept across Jiangbeiting, Gao Yong and Wang Li, then put down the teacup and said, "Everyone, because things have changed, the previous plan may need to be changed!"
"Qinghe Marquis, according to the news, Ran Chiang will take action today and tomorrow, and maybe at the wedding tomorrow. Everything is arranged now. If the plan is changed rashly, it may cause Ran Chiang and others to be alert and lead to the previous arrangements being in vain!" Jiang Beiting said in confusion.
"Yes, Marquis, if it is not necessary, it is better for me to follow the original plan. Once I startle the enemy, the efforts of these many days will be in vain!" Wang Li also said with a serious expression.
"This is the thing. Zhao Gao may also collude with Ran Chi this time..."
"What?" Jiang Beiting, Gao Yong and Wang Li stood up almost at the same time.
"Everyone, this matter was said by Brother Yu, who was rescued from the bandit's nest. There must be no mistake. Zhao Gao had his subordinates colluded with Ran Chi, intending to set fire in Nanyangcang. I think Lord Jiang and the commander Gao must have known the reason in their minds!" Chen Xu looked at Jiang Beiting and Gao Ying and said.
The two of them looked pale and felt their hearts beating extremely violently.
Chen Xu's words were naturally clear about the matter of Zhao Zhe. This was the revenge that Zhao Gao endured for more than a year. If the Nanyang Cang was really burned, Jiangbeiting, Gao Yi and Wancheng's large and small bureaucrats would have to be severely punished. If the losses were too great, it would be no surprise that the two of them would fall to the ground.
The Nanyang Warehouse was newly built, and a total of millions of stones of grain was stored in it. If all of them were burned, death would be the only end. In this era when grain was king, the emperor had to use human heads to calm his anger.
Although Wang Li didn't know the reason, he naturally broke out in a cold sweat when he was involved in Zhao Gao, who was a royal family and the Ministry of Rites. Therefore, he stuttered: "Marty, Zhao Gao... Why did Zhao Gao collude with thieves to burn the granary? What's the inside story?"
Chen Xu turned to look at Wang Li and said, "The general also knows about this matter. Your Wang family is also involved, so this is also the reason why I called you together!"
Wang Li was even more confused, opened his mouth a few times and said, "Please let the marquis tell you clearly!"
Chen Xu did not hide it, and briefly said the story of Zhao Zhe and several playboys in Wancheng colluding with bandits to rob the summer grain tax in Qinghe Town, and then said meaningfully: "The General was anxious because of this matter and fell ill once he returned to Xianyang. However, how could Zhao Gao give up on this matter? If Zhao Gao was not brought down this time, he might also secretly cheat Wang in secret next time!"
"Dare Zhao Gou'er?" Wang Li suddenly turned red and furious.
As the grandson of the Great Qin army god, the son of Tongwuhou, and as a family of military generals that can be arrogant in the entire Great Qin world, it is not an exaggeration to say that Wang is a great achievement. Now 80% of the Great Qin world are defeated by Wang's help. How can we tolerate the suppression of a flatterer? The emperor dare not suppress Wang too much. How dare he, Zhao Gao?
"Mr. Marquis, please give an order to act. I will definitely capture the thief Zhao alive!" Wang Li yelled with his fists.
"Marty, I will follow your arrangements for this matter. If Zhao Gao is not harmed, I will be framed sooner or later!" Gao Yong said with a pale face.
"My Jiang family is also deeply involved in this matter. Once exposed, they will be punished by the emperor. But the so-called long pain is worse than short pain. If Zhao Gao can be brought down this time, Jiang must do his best to throw away the county magistrate. Otherwise, if this continues, my Jiang family will not be at peace!" Jiang Beiting held his beard and his face was as gloomy as water.
Chen Xu nodded and said, "Zhao Gao will not die for a day, and we will definitely not be at peace for a day. This matter can be hidden for a while, but we must not be hiding it for a lifetime. Therefore, we must have the determination to cut off our arm. Lord Jiang is worried. You were involved in it because of me. This matter will definitely not be watched as Jiang's suffering. If I was exposed to the emperor, I will naturally take it with all my strength. As for the dismissal of the official position, I am afraid that the world will not be dismissed from office. But what is the world so big, there is great potential for doing everything. If you cannot become a high-ranking official, you cannot be glorious. But you can also be a huge businessman who can be rich and can compete with a country. See the beautiful scenery of the world, taste the delicious food of the Jiuzhou, and experience the beauty of the Jiuzhou. It is also a great pleasure in life. What does Lord Jiang think?"
"Haha, Qinghehou said it!" Jiang Beiting smiled with his hands, as if Chen Xu's words dispelled his last doubts.
"The same is true for the commander Gao County. Last time Ran Chi attacked the emperor's headquarters, but fortunately he was not implicated and dismissed. Do you know the fate of Nanyang County Ma Boyuan?" Chen Xu said lightly.
"How about Ma Boyuan?" Gao Yong's heart suddenly tightened.
"Ma Boyuan was moved to Yanmen County, and all his family had been killed by more than 30 people. He was thrown into the wilderness. Now there are no bones left!"
"What?" Jiang Beiting suddenly exclaimed.
Cang~ Gao Yong took a few steps back and kicked the seat and knocked the teacup, his terrified face twisted in distortion.
"In addition to Ma Boyuan, the remaining Wancheng bureaucrats who participated in Zhao Zhe's affairs would not end up well, and Zhao Gao would definitely not let anyone go. Therefore, if we cannot unite and move Zhao Gao down and kill him completely, we will inevitably be framed secretly one by one in the end. Therefore, we must do our best and each of us should be prepared to sacrifice immediate interests and high-ranking officials for our family!" After Chen Xu finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and slowly started drinking.
"Mr. Marquis please give me instructions. If Zhao Gao can be killed, Gao will sacrifice his life. I just hope that the Marquis can find a way out for my Gao family in the future!" After a long silence, Gao Ying knelt in front of Chen Xu with one knee.
"As soon as everything is done by the Qinghehou, the Marquis of Qing Dynasty!" Jiang Beiting also stood up and bowed.
"Wang is willing to do his best to help the Marquis move to Zhao Gao!" Wang Li also clasped his fists with a serious expression.
