The King of Han, who was as plump as a ten-month pregnancy, sat on the golden chair, his brows filled with unsolvable worries. At this time, the palace was heavily guarded, and he was still not at ease.
Looking at his sons below and the two most powerful ministers in the Han court, he maintained his dignity.
He just watched a few of them quarreling. Han Yu said that he was guilty of mobilizing the army without authorization, but he successfully rescued the princess and the princess. He also stated the cause and outcome of the matter in detail, giving the matter a final conclusion.
Even King Han heard the meaning behind his words, "Father, please praise me!"
Kaifeng took this opportunity to criticize General Ji Wuye, accusing him of failing to guard the palace, and secretly implying that he had a past relationship with the Poisonous Scorpion Sect. Since there was no evidence, it was difficult to say this kind of thing openly.
Having already been attacked once by Han Yu's imperial troops, how could Ji Wuye tolerate another attack on his prestige, so he started a fierce argument with him.
As for Han Fei, he just stood there, saying nothing, and calmly acted like a transparent person.
"That's enough. I didn't call you here to hear you shirk responsibility among each other!"
In the end, it was the King of Han who scolded the main hall to temporarily quiet down. He put one hand on his temple and said, "Lao Si did a good job in what happened tonight. Since it was a rebellion of foreigners, you are responsible for investigating the matter thoroughly.
"
When Han Yu heard this, his heart moved slightly. It seemed that he was the biggest winner tonight.
He bowed his head and responded respectfully, "Yes, I will definitely not let this happen again."
King Han continued, "Since there are some oversights in the palace's defense, General Ji should take this as a warning."
After all, he still let go of this leader of military commanders who held a lot of troops. But even so, Ji Wuye was heartbroken and responded with his hands.
"When I go back this time, I will definitely redeploy my defenses, increase my troop strength, and never let up!"
Han Wangan nodded. There is no need to beat the drum too hard. Who is a fool who can stand here?
"Zhang Xiangguo, you were responsible for leading the military pay case, how are you doing now?"
Hearing this, Kaifengdi immediately stepped forward to report, "This case involves a very deep matter, but there are some clues. This matter must not be caused by ghosts, but by someone deliberately causing trouble!"
Ji Wuye felt unhappy when he heard this. Who are you in Yin and Yang? However, without evidence, what can you do?
However, although his performance was accurate and wonderful, it was not what King Han wanted to hear.
He waved his hand impatiently, "Then Prime Minister Zhang should recover these 100,000 military pay for South Korea as soon as possible. This matter is related to the stability of the DPRK and cannot be slacked off!"
Of course Kai Kaidi accepted the order, but what he thought in his heart was that King Han's move was a blow to both civil and military officials. He sighed secretly, after all, he still insisted on the principle of balance.
After everything was explained, Han Wangan was about to stand up, but suddenly he found Han Fei standing beside him like a quail, "Old Jiu, what are you doing standing here all of a sudden? Is something wrong?"
Han Fei, who was suddenly called, was a little embarrassed and scratched his cheek with his finger. "Father, do you think there is a possibility that I will always be here?"
Hearing his frivolous and playful words, King Han waved his sleeves angrily and said, "Since there is nothing to do, please step aside. We are exhausted."
He was already worried about the robbery of military pay, but something like this happened again tonight, and he was already very impatient.
Under his rule, South Korea only needs peace and stability, even if it is just immediate stability.
Just like tonight, he was more concerned about whether Hu Mei and Hong Lian were rescued, rather than who was kidnapping them.
…
Qijuetang.
When Zheng Ze saw Tang Qi again, he was shirtless and wrapped in a large piece of white cloth used to stop bleeding, but he still couldn't suppress the red blood seeping out from his waist.
Beside him, clothes lay wet, blood and water mixed together, dripping on the ground.
Even though he is old, his body still has strong muscles and... hideous scars.
As soon as his eyes moved, Zheng Ze, who was sitting aside, said, "Thank you for your hard work, Master Qi!"
There was not much concern and sympathy in his voice, but more of a routine greeting.
When Tang Qi heard him speak, his face was calm and he didn't feel anything was wrong.
"It's inevitable to make a living, but my old bones can no longer withstand Brother Zheng's torment." He said with emotion.
Putting down the teacup handed over by the Qijuetang disciple, Zheng Ze nodded, "After a busy night, it's time to enjoy the victory. By the way, the one who escaped with you was the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Sect. He is now
He should be dead."
Once the Poisonous Scorpion Sect fell, the Qi Jue Tang family became the dominant family. Not only did it take over a large amount of territory, it would be more convenient to do things in the future, and the disciples in the hall would no longer have to experience the threat of life and death every day.
"With Xiao Bo Da, it's like walking on the tip of a knife. This kind of thing happens once and that's enough. If you are not in a desperate situation, who would be willing to dance between life and death. What are Qi Ye's plans for the future?"
After listening to his words and carefully considering each word, Tang Qi dismissed the disciples and doctors who were gathered around and looked at Zheng Ze seriously.
"As Brother Zheng said, Qi Jue Hall is under the care of Brother Zheng. From now on, whenever Brother Zheng asks for anything, Qi Jue Hall will accept it without hesitation!" He said decisively, his words full of determination.
When he agreed, he should have understood that he and Zheng Ze were now completely tied together. The elimination of the Poisonous Scorpion Sect did not mean that there would be no trouble.
Destroying the Poisonous Scorpion Sect is a show of kindness and a warning. Once tonight's inside story is spread, today's Poisonous Scorpion Sect will be tomorrow's Qijuetang.
Seeing Tang Qi's firm words, Zheng Ze smiled. Smart people always don't need to talk unnecessary nonsense.
Shaking his head, "Boss Tang is out of town, so that's not the case. I said the most critical moment has passed, and now it's time to enjoy it. There are still a long time to come, maybe we can try to understand each other."
Everyone can talk, but for people like Tang Qi, words are weapons without any power, and actions are always the best proof, just like tonight.
Tang Qi nodded according to his intention. Since he chose to do this, he naturally had his own reasons.
"I believe Brother Zheng."
Waving his hand, Zheng Ze didn't care about this, just like he didn't care about Tang Qi's life or death tonight. His own destiny was his own choice. He just felt that Tang Qi knew how to make the right choice.
"What Qijuetang should do now is to stabilize the situation in Xinzheng as soon as possible and not let others take advantage of the situation, but don't make too much noise. I believe Mr. Tang knows this better than me," he said.
Tang Qi is willing to fight this time, isn't it because he has seen the results that can be obtained when the matter is accomplished. As for the Poison Scorpion Sect matter, there are too many mistakes. They want to eat, but they can't eat too hastily.
He nodded, with questioning eyes, and asked, "I wonder if Brother Zheng has any other instructions?"
In addition to being delighted by the sudden benefits, smart people will think of the price that needs to be paid.
"I told you that you can relax. It's not about giving orders. We are just cooperating. We need Qijuetang's help to find a group of craftsmen..."
