Chapter 279: Settle accounts and pay for life, where is the confidence?(1/3)
"Tianjing City has arrived."
Ji Yuan sat on the back of Hu Lei Bao, looking at the majestic city towering into the clouds.
Behind him, a carriage drove slowly, running over the spacious official road made of solid soil.
Inside lay Qin Wugou, who had not recovered from his injuries, and the driver, Tong Guan, who had narrowly escaped death.
After the interception and killing that day, Ji Yuan first rode through Huangni Dagang and summoned the village chiefs and village heads of the local villages and towns.
He himself wore an exquisite and luxurious white python flying fish suit, and the patchwork of the official robe given by the imperial court was difficult to fake.
Coupled with the obvious strong dragon and tiger energy, it changes the martial arts realm of the third heaven.
Naturally, those country officials did not dare to doubt too much, but obeyed orders and quickly searched around with young men.
While collecting the bodies of Yunying Tiqi, they searched to see if there were any survivors.
Later, Kong Yuan from Huangliang County also heard the news and urgently sent someone to express condolences.
In this way, Ji Yuan rested and stayed for about two days before handling the matter properly.
After the assassination of more than a hundred cavalry who originally left the capital in a mighty manner.
Only two small flags, Li Yan and Pei Tu, and about twenty other people were left.
According to them, Meng Changhe was following closely behind, intending to eliminate the root cause.
I don’t know why, but I suddenly changed direction and went to the other side of the forest.
After learning the news, Ji Yuan sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Pei Silang's [Turn disaster into good fortune] is worthy of being a blue destiny, and it works every time.
"Thinking about it this way, Tianjing's most beautiful place is indeed worthy of its name."
Ji Yuan looked back at Li Yan and Pei Tu who were following behind, shook his head and said.
No wonder Xu Xian, who had already become the commander-in-chief, wanted to avoid being transferred out of Tianjing.
I would rather take a huge risk and break into the house to kill people in broad daylight.
At the feet of the saint, there may be an undercurrent and a game between all parties.
But those are all the magic powers of the powerful princes, and they do not affect the small officials and ordinary people.
Generally speaking, it's pretty peaceful and we can get by.
But if you were a member of the imperial court, once you left Daming Mansion.
The remnants of the rivers and lakes that wreak havoc in various prefectures, evil spirits from other sects, and powerful bandits...
There are even ghosts and ghosts emerging in endlessly.
If you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts.
Especially as someone with an official position in Beizhen Fusi, lighting up a lantern in the middle of the night is more likely to cause trouble and misfortune.
"So, most of the hundreds or thousands of households in the north and south yamen want to stay in Tianjing.
If there are few things to do, people will be safe, but there is no great future to speak of..."
Ji Yuan was thoughtful and had a deeper understanding of the situation outside Daming Mansion.
It is a pity that when he returns to Beijing to report on his duties, he will probably be promoted to Qianhu, and he will inevitably go out on hunting tours.
"Liaodong..."
Ji Yuan's eyes flickered and he whispered softly.
Thinking of Luo Yuzhen's sincere invitation before, he felt a little hesitant.
According to the original intention, Ji Yuan did not want to get involved in the muddy waters of border generals.
Since the prince has been in charge of the country for twenty years, the two gangs in Liaodong and Huaixi have become more domineering and arrogant.
Everyone supports his own troops and supports his family generals, which is a bit too big to lose.
This is an indisputable fact.
Sooner or later, the East Palace will have someone perform an operation to remove this stubborn disease and take power back to the central government.
"Liaodong or Huaixi...who should we start with?"
Ji Yuan rode his horse slowly, lowering his head and thinking.
Although, Liang Guogong Yang Hong is a member of the prince's party.
However, because he controlled half of the power of the Ministry of War, he appointed, dismissed, and promoted the guards at will, which was a huge taboo.
Yang Hong and the saint are sworn brothers, and he and the prince are elders by marriage, so they seem to have a deep affection for each other.
In fact, this huge love is being continuously consumed.
Just wait and see when it is completely exhausted, the towering tree of Huaixi Xungui will collapse.
"If you think about it this way, Tianjing is the place where the storm is turbulent."
Ji Yuan analyzed the pros and cons and felt that even if he stayed in the capital, he might not be able to escape.
The court is an all-encompassing network. The closer you get to the center of power, the harder it is to stay alone.
Trying to avoid or give in in everything will often not end well.
What's more, he was in the limelight, offended the household department, and angered half of the military department.
He also made a current lord of the dynasty disgraced, creating a feud that would never end.
"Unless I can become a saint immediately, break through the great master, and crush Yang Hong to death.
Otherwise, even if you hide in the ends of the earth, you will not be able to live happily ever after!"
Ji Yuan thought about it repeatedly and believed that leaving Tianjing was not a bad thing.
He has now broken through the blood exchange barrier, with ten Qi channels, destiny numbers, and the secret blessings of four outside the realm.
With so many ways to squeeze the bottom of the market, the trend has been established, and you are not afraid of other people's schemes.
If you can establish a foothold in Liaodong, sit in the position of a thousand households, patrol the land, and hold great power.
There are not so many constraints, and maybe I am more comfortable than staying in Tianjing.
A group of carriages and horses walked through the official road and arrived outside the city gate in a moment.
The crowds are bustling and it’s very lively.
Businessmen, warriors, escorts, hawkers... all come and go, coming in and out.
The soldiers guarding the city at the gate also had a calm aura and sharp eyes.
They will only conduct a cursory search of conspicuous people carrying weapons or carrying goods.
It is relatively lenient towards vendors and ordinary people, and there is no attempt to ask for bribes.
Ji Yuan stood up and dismounted. Because the flag of Beizhen Fusi was hanging, the soldiers guarding the city did not even confiscate a penny from entering the city.
"The person here is Ji Jiulang from Beizhen Fusi, Lord Ji?"
Suddenly, a young eunuch in blue robe appeared from the side.
He has a handsome appearance and appears kind, as if he has been waiting for a long time.
"Not bad."
Ji Yuan held Hu Lei Bao and replied calmly.
"The villain is on duty in the East Palace and has come to receive Lord Ji at the request of His Highness the Crown Prince."
The blue-robed eunuch bowed and said humbly.
"It seems that Bai Hanzhang knows about the assassination. I wonder what the prince will do?"
Ji Yuan's eyes flashed, he let go of the reins and said:
"Since I am being summoned by the East Palace, I would rather obey the order than respectfully and ask my father-in-law to lead the way."
……
……
Half an hour later, Ji Yuan stepped into a warm pavilion in the East Palace.
Bai Hanzhang still does things properly as always, knowing that he has been full of troubles along the way.
We specially prepared fragrant soup to take a bath and put on regular clothes that fit.
Then a banquet was held, and a table of exquisite dishes with four meats and four vegetables was served.
When Ji Yuan felt refreshed and entered Nuan Pavilion.
I just smelled the aroma of wine and vegetables, and I couldn't help but move my fingers, feeling comfortable.
"Sit down, you and I don't have to be constrained by the etiquette of monarchs and ministers."
Bai Hanzhang poured himself a drink and said with a carefree smile.
