Later, in the back hall of the county government office, an officer in a red uniform waved his hand to drag out a young man in prison clothes, covered with whip marks, who looked miserable.
Tang Ji sat on the seat inside the hall, touching his chin with one hand. After more than half an hour of interrogation, he used almost all the methods he should use, and only learned about the internal affairs of Tianren Sect.
Based on the hierarchy of power, this young man serves as a teacher in the religion, which is almost like a squad leader. However, judging from the tone and performance of the other party, the news that the leader of the Heavenly Man Sect will come to Yun'an does not seem to be fabricated.
.
Just as thoughts were flying in his mind, Cao Yun, who was standing aside, raised his hands and asked, "Master Tang, what should we do next?"
Rumors about the leader of Tianren Sect have spread everywhere recently. Some say that his martial arts skills are unparalleled. Some say that he kills people like crazy. Others say that he eats human flesh and drinks human blood. Although he thinks it is a bit exaggerated, he dares to confuse the people. Come to think of it.
He is also a formidable opponent.
If the other party really comes, the people of Yunyang may suffer!
I just don’t know what the famous young man in front of me will do!
Thinking of this, Cao Yun couldn't help but glance at Tang Ji. Unexpectedly, he happened to meet the latter's eyes and coughed twice in embarrassment.
Tang Ji didn't care what he was thinking, he stood up directly and whispered a few instructions in his ear.
After hearing this, Cao Yun couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Sir, this will cost a lot of money!"
"It's better to make more money after losing it than to have chaos in the city." Tang Ji replied, adjusting his sleeves.
Cao Yun froze on the spot and looked at him again: "But"
"Tomorrow I will ask someone to send a more specific implementation strategy. You can just implement it. I will be responsible for everything." Tang Ji smiled, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, then turned towards him.
As he walked out of the hall, he did not forget to leave a sentence: "Okay, I just came in to see that you were quite busy, so I won't disturb you. By the way, I hope Mr. Cao can take care of my whereabouts and identity."
Keep it secret!"
Looking at his leaving figure, Cao Yun was a little distracted. It wasn't until Tang Ji's figure completely disappeared that he sighed: "No wonder His Majesty would reuse you. Young people today just have ideas, and the key is that they are bold!"
After saying this, he put away his worries and said loudly: "Come here, send the order and issue an arrest warrant!"
The next day, Kyoto.
The cult rebellion in the area south of Liang'an has been going on for more than 4 months. During this period, the matter was discussed intensely in the court almost every day. However, His Majesty took no action other than sending the Lin'an army south to assist in control.
, the ministers wanted to persuade him, but last night they heard that His Majesty secretly assigned Tang Ji to go to Qin'an. In addition, King You Li Yu and General Song Yao of Shenwei left for Jin'an nearly a month ago as evidence, which shows that it was not groundless.
Say app——-p
As a result, as soon as the morning session started this morning, various sounds came from the Golden Palace.
"Isn't this nonsense? What can a yellow-haired kid like Tang Ji do?"
"Let Sirs 4 and 6 go. Mr. Tang has a higher official rank than you. How can I allow you to humiliate me? Mr. Tang was able to kill Li Wenquan and recapture Yingzhou with his wisdom in the northwest. I believe he can also suppress the cult rebellion this time. Why is this all nonsense?
Already?"
"Hmph, what a joke, can that be the same? Li Wenquan was brave and foolish, so he was naturally fooled by Tang Ji. However, this cult turmoil was so violent that it was obviously carefully planned. The person behind it must be the city government.
Quite profoundly, Tang Ji may not have outplayed others, but actually lost his time!"
"Haha, is it possible to send you, Mr. Zhu?"
"Anyway, it's inappropriate to let Tang Ji go!"
""
Listening to the quarrel below, Ning Huang, who was sitting on the golden platform, frowned. He had clearly emphasized three times that Tang Ji's visit to deal with the turmoil in the Celestial Beings was a secret and strictly prohibited from spreading. Who leaked this news? So...
Come, I was afraid that I would cause a lot of trouble to that kid, so I patted the seat with some frustration and said in a deep voice: "That's enough!"
In an instant, the originally noisy court became quiet.
Emperor Ning's anger did not subside. He looked at the ministers below and said, "It was my intention and that of the two prime ministers to let Tang Ji go to Qin'an to suppress the rebellion. What? Do you think there is something wrong with my decision? Or do you have more questions?
A good candidate?"
Hearing this, the officials who had been mocking Tang Ji just now lowered their heads one after another.
But at this moment, an old man with a white beard wearing a purple robe stood up. He clasped his hands and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, this southern rebellion has spread to five states and tens of thousands of people.
As a result, he was suffering and displaced. Is it too perfunctory for the imperial court to send only Tang Ji? I dare to ask Your Majesty, if Mr. Tang cannot suppress the cult in a short period of time, who will bear the losses incurred during the period? How should the imperial court explain to the people?
"
His questions were very sharp and attracted the attention of many officials.
As expected of Taifu Sima, he is the only person in the court who dares to openly question His Majesty!
Sima Hong was Ning Huang's teacher, so the latter naturally would not lose his temper with him and spit out a foul breath: "What the Tutor said is reasonable, but I also have my own plans. I might as well give Tang Ji some time. If he can't do anything,
Complete the task I assigned you, and it’s not too late to find another plan!”
Sima Hong asked reluctantly: "Your Majesty, the people are the foundation of the country. Do you really want to detain the country's foundation on a young official who has no experience in the world?"
Hearing this, Li Xian, who was standing in front of the civil servants, raised the corners of his mouth.
Let’s make a noise! Let’s make a noise!
It's best to kill that boy Tang Ji!
Hearing this, Emperor Ning frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Are you questioning me?"

"I don't dare, veteran," Sima Hong continued to bow and reply, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the former.
"That's enough. I believe in Tang Ji. It doesn't matter if I give him a little time." Emperor Ning said something in anger, then stood up, waved his hand and left directly: "I am not feeling well today.
Just stop here and retreat!"
After the words fell, the officials who were napping at the back suddenly opened their eyes. They thought they were dreaming. When they took a closer look, they realized that there was really no one on the throne. However, they did not dare to think too much and immediately knelt down with the officials in front.
Salute.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Sima Hong looked at the departing figure and roared with all his strength. His hoarse voice spread throughout the Golden Palace.
After the disbandment of the dynasty was confirmed, the officials started discussing again.
"Isn't that right? This morning, the incense dispersed within less than two sticks?"
"Don't you see His Majesty is angry?"
"Master Taifu has been ill for three years. Now he seems to be recovering well. It seems that Tang Ji's good days are over!"
"Master Lu, are you insulting Master Tang again? It seems that you have to let His Majesty convict you of the following crimes to be satisfied!"
""
Sima Hong knelt on the spot, his pupils trembling slightly. He had been out for treatment and recuperation in the past two years and did not care about the affairs of the court. However, on the way back to Beijing, he heard a lot of rumors about Tang Ji. That boy was indeed quite capable.
, but he is too rude and arrogant. Not only is he domineering in the court, but he also does not take the royal family seriously. Many of his actions reflect that this person must have a traitor!
If Your Majesty does not take good care of his vigor, but indulges in cover-up, something will happen sooner or later!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but said: "Nie, you are harming the country!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, two figures came from the side. Shen Di smiled lightly and said: "Master Sima's words are serious. That little guy Tang Ji is not a sycophant. He is a lucky star that our country of Ning only encounters once in a hundred years. He is a truly capable minister!"
Dong Sheng also nodded in agreement: "When that kid grows up for a few more years, I can retire and take care of myself!"
"Hey, hey, hey, you clearly agreed that I would retreat first, but you still have to take care of him!" Shen Di retorted.
"My old bone is really dying, so Brother Shen should do it!"
"No, there is no need to discuss this matter."
""
Listening to the two people actually vying to give up their position to the sycophant, Sima Hong trembled all over, and then stood up slowly: "Forget it, Your Majesty, you are so ignorant, you two are so ignorant, I am here, how can he?" Don’t even think about climbing up any more!”
"Humph!" After saying that, he hummed again, then turned and left.
Looking at the hurried figure, Dong Sheng could not help but whisper to Shen Di: "Is the old thief Sima recovered from his illness or is his brain broken?"
Tang Ji is now recognized as the number one young person of the younger generation. No, it can be said that there is almost no one who can match him in the entire court. If Your Majesty doesn't reuse that kid, is it possible that he will continue to promote useless people like before? I'm afraid he will really do that. Only then will Ning Guo’s demise be hastened!
Shen Di stroked his beard and thought for a while: "But Tang Ji's character is indeed a bit arrogant. I will have to persuade him later. The most important thing now is whether he can solve the rebellion in the south as soon as possible and block the interference of the ministers in the DPRK. Mouth!"
"I guess it's difficult. Now that the news has spread, I'm afraid the leader of the Human Sect will be more cautious that day. Alas!" Dong Sheng sighed and stepped forward.
On the other side, Ning Huang, who had just returned to the Imperial Study Room, was still angry and punched the dragon case: "Everyone can create chaos. How come there is no one willing to stand up in the turmoil in the south for 34 months?" Are you sharing my worries? Now that I asked Tang Ji to do this, they are not happy. There is also Sima Hong. I have always respected him and respect him. Who would have thought that the first thing he did when he recovered was to go against me. Tang Ji is a sycophant, but I hope there will be more sycophants like him!"
"Ahem!" Maybe he spoke too quickly, and he couldn't help but cough.
"Your Majesty, calm down!" Bai Chang quickly came up to him and gently patted his back.
However, Emperor Ning raised his hand to signal him to step aside, and then concentrated on giving instructions: "Send another secret order to that kid, asking him to find out and kill the leader of the Human Sect as soon as possible, and restore stability to the south. By the way, now His southward journey has been exposed, so he must pay attention to his safety!"
:
"Old slave, you obey!" Bai Chang did not dare to delay, and quickly retreated after saluting.
Emperor Ning stared outside the palace and murmured: "You brat, I'm waiting for you to slap those guys who only know how to talk!"
