Wang Yue thought for a while. Anyway, his purpose was not to protect Xiao Qinyan, a rear partisan, so there was no need to let his men take risks. He took out a map and handed it to Wang Ke, and then said solemnly, "This time
There are too many hat demons appearing. We don’t need to fight head-on. You can go to these locations on the map and notify the manpower of Dali Temple on standby there. Tell them to wait until the assassination begins to see if Xiao Qinyan is there.
We really don’t have any reinforcements to take action!”
Just as Wang Ke was about to set off, he immediately thought of Wang Jing's words, to think more about things when they happen. He hesitated for a moment, then thought of a question, and said tangledly, "None of the people arranged by the master this time are from us.
What if someone asks why you waited until the assassination began?"
Wang Yue glanced at Wang Ke in surprise, when did this guy start to use his brain?
However, it was a good thing that his subordinates started to use their brains to do things. Wang Yue didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately ordered, "Let's just say that Mr. Xiao has been an official for decades and has always been cautious. We are here to get the credit and we can't lose our lives."
.”
Wang Ke twitched the corner of his mouth. His master spoke too bluntly, but he liked it. Those who were behind me were the enemies of his master. He knew that the matter was urgent, so he didn't waste any more time and hurried to inform him.
Not long after Wang Ke left, the group of men in black quickly rushed to the river. Several ropes were ejected with crossbow arrows, and they instantly entangled the building boat Xiao Qinyan was riding on, and people quickly slid along the ropes.
Several passed by.
The remaining hat demons stayed at the rope and were on guard, waiting for the following accomplices to see if anyone would support Xiao Qinyan.
The hat demons had long known that the family members of Xiao Qinyan were all on the boat, and there were no other people. In their opinion, those few people could kill Xiao Qinyan, a civil servant.
In fact, it was indeed the case. After several assassins went up, Xiao Qinyan no longer had the time to sing heroically about knights. He began to flee in embarrassment in the building boat. However, the building boat was not big in the first place and the assassins were very skilled. He did not
After escaping for a while, he was almost killed.
Young Master Xiao, who was hiding in the cabin, saw his father in danger and quickly came out of the cabin with a sword to block the sword. Xiao Qinyan also saved his life.
It's just that despite the fact that Young Master Xiao usually shows off his skills and is said to be proficient in bow and horse, he actually has no actual combat experience. He is very weak when facing bloody killers. After a few blows, he was beaten and rolled into a ball with Xiao Qinyan.
Just when a few swords were about to chop the two of them into pieces, Gu Qianfan could no longer care so much and suddenly came out to kill him. Xiao Qinyan was his father after all, and he wanted him to watch his father die in front of him.
, he still can't do it.
In fact, Gu Qianfan didn't want to care about it at first, but Xiao Qinyan was his father after all, so he still quietly followed the boat to have a look.
Originally, Gu Qianfan thought that his father was a traitor, and since he was used as a bait, he would definitely not be without reinforcements. Otherwise, wouldn't fishing be just a meal delivery? Would a traitor of a generation do such stupid things?
What Gu Qianfan didn't expect was that Xiao Qinyan was betting that Gu Qianfan wouldn't watch him get killed, so Xiao Qinyan's reinforcements were actually people from Gu Qianfan's Imperial City Department.
It's just that Xiao Qinyan missed one point, that is, Gu Qianfan didn't believe that his father came here alone without any manpower from the Imperial City Division.
Also because of the small size of the ship, Gu Qianfan was able to stop ten thousand people from opening it. But in the Imperial City Division, he had been living a life of licking blood with the tip of a knife. Gu Qianfan's force level was rising slowly. He faced the battle
With rich experience, he cut off several ropes decisively, which reduced the number of assassins who rushed along the ropes to help when the situation was bad.
As there were fewer and fewer assassins on the ship, the few remaining assassins knew that they would definitely not be able to kill the traitor, so they quickly guarded the remaining ropes and fought for their lives to delay some time.
The assassin leader on the shore originally didn't want to participate, but when he saw this situation, he quickly led the people with the highest martial arts skills to row along the few ropes.
Gu Qianfan on the boat was very agile and clever in his movements. When he saw the person coming, he casually threw out a spear and attacked in a sneak attack, hoping to take advantage of the chaos and kill one of them.
What Gu Qianfan didn't expect was that the spear that was thrust towards the assassin leader's face was easily dodged by the man. However, because the spear was too fast, the scarf on the assassin leader's face fell off.
Gu Qianfan saw the appearance of the visitor clearly and immediately exclaimed, "You are Commander Cui in front of the palace!"
Wang Yue heard Gu Qianfan's exclamation from a distance, and when he heard the identity of the visitor, he decisively took out the flute from his waist and played the "Xia Ke Xing" that Xiao Qinyan had just sung.
The moment Wang Yue's flute sounded, Wang Yue's subordinates from Dali Temple who had been waiting for a long time rushed out decisively. Taking advantage of the man in black guarding the rope on the shore, they were unprepared and strangled them instantly.
, everyone in Dali Temple cut off the rope.
At the same time, several small boats rushed towards Xiao Qinyan's large boat. The person standing on the bow of the fastest boat was Wang Ke.
Wang Yue's goal was to only catch big fish that were heavy with assassins, and the assassins who appeared later were very powerful. Gu Qianfan was almost no match for them. Even if Gu Qianfan didn't shout out the opponent's name, Wang Ke and the others would be ready to take action.
Just for a while at night.
In Wang Yue's view, as long as he is a master, either with a high position or a close associate of a big shot, as long as he captures these masters, it will be considered a success.
Moreover, there were several boats surrounding them, and after cutting the ropes, other assassins on the shore had no choice but to use boats to rescue their leader. If Hu tried to get through the ropes, he would definitely be shot dead on the way.
We can only risk our lives to kill Huafang first, but facing the palace guards who have been prepared for a long time, if they come from the air, they will be just targets for crossbows.
In fact, this was the case. Seeing this situation, the assassins attacked the boat that Wang Yue accepted several times in a row. They lost more than a hundred lives in vain, but failed to break through those boats. Those who followed Wang Yue in Dali Temple
The cronies who acted were all masters in the imperial guard camp. It was basically impossible to seize the ship and save people.
Sure enough, Wang Yue's plan succeeded. After Wang Cai took several guards aboard Xiao Qinyan's ship, Commander Cui wanted to commit suicide knowing that there was no hope.
It's just that Commander Cui wanted to do one more thing before committing suicide, which was to disfigure his face, but gave Wang Ke the opportunity. Wang Ke had already listened to Wang Yue's instructions and was on guard against this move, and decisively cut off Commander Cui's right arm.
The same was true for the remaining assassins, but they all lost their last chance to commit suicide, and were easily captured by the guards one by one.
After all the living or injured assassins were taken down, Gu Qianfan breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Wang Ke and asked doubtfully, "Where is your Wang Shaoqing?"
Gu Qianfan is a little confused now. He and Wang Yue have a good relationship, but after all, they are not close enough. They are just ordinary friends at most. Wang Yue cannot do anything wrong by saving Xiao Qinyan and offending a lot of people.
After all, Wang Yue is a member of Ke Xiang and belongs to the Qingliu faction. Since he is Qingliu, even if he is unwilling to participate in the assassination of Xiao Qinyan, he should just sit back and watch. How can he help Xiao Qinyan?
Seeing Gu Qianfan's concerns, Wang Ke said righteously, "My young master said that he doesn't care about party struggles and it has nothing to do with him. It's just that no matter who he is, he can't trample on the lives of the people. The hat monster case is dead.
How many innocent people have been killed, there must be a result, and someone must bear the responsibility!"
Gu Qianfan's body was shaken. He had always thought that he was serving the country and the people. It was also because of this belief that he could endure doing so many dirty things in the Imperial City Division, but everything he did was really for the country.
People?
No, Gu Qianfan did not serve the country and the people, but only the emperor. He had never thought about the problems of the people. In fact, subconsciously, he, a second-generation official, still did not take the people into consideration. But Wang Yue was willing to do it for the people.
If you become an enemy of Houdang Qingliu, do you want to be a lonely minister?
If Wang Yue knew that he would definitely despise him, he would not do it. He was just happy in his heart. If he could let these shameless Qingliu and the rear party members, except Ke Zheng, fight to the death, he would not do it.
pleasure.
...
After Wang Ke helped Commander Cui stop the bleeding, he tied him up and went to the palace with the commander of the imperial guard battalion who came out this time.
The emperor really hadn't slept at this time. He was worried after listening to Wang Yue's story. Now these ministers actually ignored the lives of the people for the sake of the party and government. Are such ministers really serving the Song Dynasty?
Seeing the emperor's doubts, Wang Yue said righteously at the time, "Whether it is the so-called Houdang or Qingliu, they only care about their own interests and do not care about the wishes of the officials at all, let alone the lives of the people.
.But the officials are your subjects, and so are the people. Your Majesty cannot be partial."
The official looked at Wang Yue speechlessly. He didn't know what Ke Zheng meant by recommending Wang Yue, but seeing Wang Yue's unwillingness to help the two made him feel very comfortable.
In the emperor's view, since the two sides are not helping each other, they are actually only on his side. Since they are on his side, they must give some support.
At the same time, the emperor also lamented that after being the emperor for so long, the courtiers were either the Qingliu who restrained him or the queen's followers. Now he finally had the emperor's party who were neither party members nor friends. This was not easy.
Therefore, the emperor, who was in a good mood, took a rare stand and sent his most trusted guards, regardless of the pressure from the empress and Qingliu, to follow Wang Yue to arrest people.
What the emperor didn't expect was that when Wang Yue went out with the imperial guards, he actually captured a commander from the front office. He glanced at Commander Cui who was missing an arm and felt a little dizzy.
Palace Chief, that's also a imperial guard. Since when have you already joined the team? Are you not a member of the newly formed imperial party?
Yes, the emperor who was afraid of war was actually very timid. Commander Cui's bloody look was too scary. He didn't dare to look at it and directly announced that Wang Yue had made a contribution to saving Xianggong Xiao and was promoted to Minister of Dali Temple. Gu Qianfan
After being promoted to the commander of the Imperial City Department, Lei Jing was transferred to the Imperial Palace Department and ordered Wang Yue and Gu Qianfan to continue investigating the case in detail.
You must know that this is Kyoto, and someone assassinated the prime minister of the dynasty in the street, and it was done by the palace minister. You must know that the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty was only the palace minister before he became emperor. Is this another mutiny? This makes this man
The emperor, who did not do his job properly and liked to go out for fun, had no sense of security and must fight against this unhealthy trend.
...
However, the progress of Wang Yue and Gu Qianfan's interrogation was not very good. He probably knew that he would definitely die and was afraid that if he betrayed Qi Mu, his family would be wiped out by the ruthless Qingliu people, so he decisively said that this was a personal vendetta.
Gu Qianfan saw that the interrogation could not produce anything, so he raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Yue. He wanted to know what Wang Yue and Wang Qingtian could do.
Wang Yue laughed when he heard Commander Cui say it was a personal feud. He looked at Commander Cui seriously and said, "The personal grudge you are talking about is the death of your brother-in-law, right?"
Commander Cui thought Wang Yue had taken the bait, so he gritted his teeth and said, "It was Xiao Qinyan who forced my brother-in-law to death and made my sister a widow. I just want revenge!"
Wang Yue thought of Zhao Pan'er's father and said with a smile, "Since you are suing Xiao Qinyan, I can take the case. Although I handled the case in Zhejiang and Zhejiang at the time, I don't mind pushing it over again. It's just that
You have to think clearly. If you continue to pursue the case, your brother-in-law will be sentenced to exile even if he dies. If your sister is left without your care and has no one to rely on, she will become a prostitute."
Commander Cui was stunned. He suddenly reacted and said excitedly, "This is not the personal grudge I am talking about."
Wang Yue finally figured it out. This was another person who was fooled. He looked at the fool Gu next to him, and then said with a smile, "Don't rush to change your explanation. I will analyze it for you. In fact, your brother-in-law
Suicide indirectly saved your sister. After all, there was no interrogation. Mr. Xiao also indirectly saved your sister. You know, when your brother-in-law killed the sixth-grade fortune judge, I was already on the hook. I'm sure
We can't save him. If he dies a few months later, your sister will be exiled. There are many wives and daughters of exiled officials who have become official prostitutes. Now you are repaying kindness with hatred."
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! Commander Cui is a martial artist. He was confused by Wang Yue's simple logic. He quickly argued, "That's not what you said. What you said is wrong. If my brother-in-law
Immortal..."
Wang Yuecai didn't give him a chance to sort out his thoughts. He waved his hand to interrupt Commander Cui's words and reminded him patiently, "If your brother-in-law doesn't die, he will be like the few county magistrates in Zhejiang and Zhejiang who were captured by me. The Song Dynasty will not kill him."
Civil servant, your brother-in-law will be exiled at most. If your sister is exiled, do you think you can still take care of her, but I'm afraid it's beyond your reach? Even if you don't become an official prostitute, do you think someone will silence her?"
Commander Cui was stunned. Yes, if Xiao Qinyan hadn't sealed the coffin first, Wang Yue's trouble in Liang Zhejiang was so fierce. I don't know how many people would have died. It seems that the fate of the magistrate of Huating County was worse than that of Zheng Qingtian.
Wang Yue was a little moved when he saw Commander Cui, and continued to confuse him, "Is it worth it for you to be deceived into working hard? After you die, do you think your family will be treated as a lowly person? After all, you are not a civil servant.
, the treatment is not that good. Think about it now, should you reveal the mastermind and try to get a lighter punishment?"
Commander Cui is a selfish person to begin with. His brother-in-law can't do this for money, but it's not allowed for others to kill his brother-in-law. So who should the judge who was killed by his brother-in-law cry to, because everyone in the family will be killed.
Since he was selfish, he decisively betrayed Qi Mu when there was a benefit, and he also provided evidence that he had acted in Qi Mu's name for so many years.
Qi Mu was a little uneasy when Commander Cui was captured. If it was just Gu Qianfan, he could still be stable, but Wang Yue, he really couldn't understand.
Just when Qi Mu was restless, the officials from Dali Temple broke into Qi's house.
