"Your Majesty, it's strange to say that all these things happened in the past two months." Master Ku said seriously.

Someone angrily said: "I never thought that Kong Ci was such a thing. On the surface, he was conscientious and conscientious, but in fact, the Protectorate's Mansion was in such chaos!"

"He has the nerve to ask for reward from His Majesty. He is a pure two-faced person and must be severely punished!"

"That's right, Your Majesty, to be sure, it's better to mobilize the army, capture everyone in the Protector's Mansion, and conduct a thorough investigation!" Someone suggested, looking ugly.

They had a hunch that most of these missing women had been murdered!

Seeing that the crowd was furious, Zhou Jian did not explode, but suddenly narrowed his eyes: "You said everything was concentrated in the past two months?"

Master Ku nodded: "That's right!"

"Something's wrong!" Zhou Jian suddenly frowned, his expression extremely wise.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Everyone looked at him.

Zhou Jian was extremely sharp at this moment and said in a deep voice: "Kong Ci has been in the Western Region Protectorate for at least five or six years. Why didn't these things happen before and only started in the past month or two?"

"I have repeatedly issued imperial edicts. Now the whole country is definitely in the stage of severe crackdown. However, so many things have happened in this area under Kong Ci's jurisdiction. And although I have never seen him, judging from past memorials, this person is definitely not like this.

How brave!”

"The most important thing is that these things are related to the Western Region, and I think there is something wrong with it!" A cold light flashed across his pupils. Although he was furious, he would never be blindly impulsive and directly mobilize the army, otherwise he would miss clues.

After hearing this, everyone was shocked, and then they realized, yes, it makes sense!

Yang Wei narrowed his little eyes, full of sparkle: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Zhou Jian and he looked at each other, and they seemed to want to go together. Then he looked at the sky at the border of the Western Region. It was already slightly dark, and there was a hint of unknown in the vastness!

"You'll know everything when you enter the Protector's Mansion. It's getting dark, so pack up and enter the Protector's Mansion as an imperial envoy!" Zhou Jian spoke calmly, clenching his fists with a clanging sound.

"Your Majesty, do you want Flying Pigeon to send a message to Dragon Cavalry?" someone said.

"No need for the time being, I forgive him Kong Ci doesn't have the courage!" Zhou Jian snorted coldly, full of domineering. Although the water in the Protector's Mansion looks very deep, after all, it is still on the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is not the same as entering the Western Region Corridor.

Two concepts.

"yes!!"

Not long after, the team was ready to go, escorting a group of people from Hushi to the Duhu Mansion.

Duhufu is a small border town with a strength of 30,000 troops. The city is severely eroded by yellow sand, so it seems that the conditions are very limited.

But the population and money here are huge. As the link between the Central Plains and the Western Regions, a large number of businessmen come and go every day.

Therefore, as the top leader of the Protectorate, Kong Ci has huge power. Except for the bad conditions, he is full of oil and water everywhere.

The fact that the patrol team was detained by the Imperial Envoy happened to spread throughout the Duhu Mansion. In addition, Zhou Jian and his entourage came in force, which quickly caused a shock!

Torches were burning all over the Protectorate's Mansion, and a large number of troops surged out against the yellow sand and night wind.

"Imperial envoy, I am late to welcome you, please forgive me!" The army separated, and a dark-skinned, thick-set, slovenly middle-aged man dismounted from his horse and bowed down.

At the same time, the senior officials of the Imperial Guards raised their hands and shouted: "I'll wait to see you, Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy!"

The loud sound caused the torches to sway constantly and hit their faces. Their eyes were a little uneasy, especially when they saw the detained patrols and Western merchants.
Chapter completed!
