Chapter 1249 The Sword Points at Zhang Shougui!

Chapter 1249

Two hundred and seventy-eight people is not a small number, and the accumulated materials are piled up on the table like a hill.

Any secret, no matter how perfect it is, will definitely leave clues. For Wang Chong, as long as there is any suspicious place, he will capture the "footprints" left by the other party.

In just over two hours, the files on the table were reduced by at least half. Wang Chong only went through it once, and ruled out the suspicion of more than 100 people, leaving only more than 120 people. Wang Chong quickly handed these things to his uncle Li Lin.

"Let the people from the city defense department dispatch to interrogate these more than 120 people again. In addition, these more than 30 people are delineated by me, and the suspects are the most suspicious. I will trouble my uncle to send the city defense department and the masters of the imperial army to arrest them. The suspects talked to them in the name of maintaining the safety of the capital, and tried their hypocrisy."

Wang Chong paused while speaking, and continued.

"When talking to them, pay attention to check their wrists to see if there is this special ink mark."

As Wang Chong said, he took out a pen from the pen holder next to it, and with just a few strokes, he immediately drew a strange ink mark on a piece of white rice paper. It was the marks on the wrists of the three Confucian masters who Wang Chong had seen in Khorasan.

The two are exactly the same.

"Remember, don't let them notice!"

Wang Chong added.

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me, and I will handle it myself!"

Li Lin took the xuanhua white paper, and at the same time took the roster recorded by Wang Chong, and left quickly.

Time passed slowly, and the entire city defense department moved again after hearing the news and started to work quickly.

...

In the southwest of the capital, a firewood gate stands tall. Behind the firewood gate, it is quiet and secluded. Not far away, a small clear river flows by.

"The Master said: 'Government with virtue is like the North Star, where all the stars live in it'."

"The Master said: 'A gentleman does not compare himself to one another, and a villain does not compare himself to one another.'

"Ji Kangzi asked: "How about making the people respectful and loyal? "The Master said: "When you come to the village,

If you are filial and kind, you will be loyal; if you do good but cannot teach, you will persuade. "

...

In the early morning, there was a burst of reading sound from behind the Chai Fei. A scholar in white, with a feather fan and a scarf, was reading the contents of Confucius' Analects and Weizheng.

The scholar's clothes dance with the wind, and there is a fresh, elegant, and otherworldly atmosphere.

Rumbling, suddenly there was the sound of a carriage, breaking the tranquility of the morning. The young white-clothed scholar frowned slightly, and when he raised his head, he saw more than a dozen soldiers from the city defense department coming on horseback and stopped in front of Chai Fei.

"Li Junshan?"

A soldier from the city defense department asked.

"I'm here, I don't know if you are breaking in at this time, what's the matter?"

The white-clothed scholar said, he looked very self-cultivated.

"City defense needs, I hope you can cooperate with us to do some investigations."

The leading officer said, took out a book, and recorded it while asking.

The white-clothed scholar has always maintained extreme self-cultivation. Although he was slightly displeased, he still cooperated with the investigation as much as possible. All the ages, places of origin, and the purpose of coming to the capital, as long as they can answer, they know everything, and they can say everything. The investigation lasted for half an hour, and the white-clothed scholar stood there, but he never showed any signs of impatience.

After the investigation was over, a group of people left quickly.

"My lord, I have read it. There is no ink mark on his wrist. He should not be the person we are looking for!"

After a few hundred meters away from Chaifei, the leading officer of the city defense department quickly stepped forward and drove alongside the carriage.

"Understood, you go!"

A voice came from inside the carriage, and as soon as the voice fell, the officer of the city defense department bowed and left quickly.

In the carriage, when the officer of the city defense department left, Li Lin turned his head and looked at Wang Chong who was beside him.

"Chong'er, this is the last one, and none of them have the mark you mentioned, what should we do now?"

Li Lin looked at Wang Chong beside him, with deep worry in his eyes.

During the investigation by the City Defense Department, Wang Chong was always by his side, but none of the 30 people selected by Wang Chong as the most suspected suspects, including this Li Junshan, did not meet the conditions Wang Chong said.

Wang Chong sat beside him motionless, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be lost in thought. All the investigations failed to obtain the desired results. From this point of view, Wang Chong's deduction seemed to have completely failed. However, his expression didn't seem to be affected much.

"No accident, the other side should be prepared!"

After a while, Wang Chong opened his eyes and said suddenly.

"ah!"

Li Lin's body trembled slightly, and he was speechless immediately.

"That way, won't we never find him?"

During this period of time, Li Lin also learned some things from Wang Chong. With the ability shown by the other party, if they had already discovered Wang Chong's actions and became vigilant, it might be difficult to really catch them.

"Uncle, don't worry, this operation is not for nothing, and soon, I will let him truly reveal his behavior!"

Wang Chong said calmly. The eyes opened, and a blazing light gradually burst out from the eyes. While Wang Chong was investigating the true identity of the man behind the scenes, something happened in the Tang court the next day that shocked the entire court.

"Your Majesty! My minister Ye Haicheng has something to say. Most of An Dong protects Zhang Shougui, deceives the emperor, and conceals the military situation. He was defeated by Xi and Khitan in the Huangshui area. He lost troops and lost countless casualties, but he did not report it. Not only that, Zhang Shougui They even colluded with the angels and bribed them secretly, hoping that the angels would lie to the sky and help him claim that the big defeat was a big victory. Zhang Shougui is so rejoicing, he acted recklessly, and the crime of deceiving the king should not be lightly forgiven!"

"My minister has a report letter from his subordinates. This matter is undeniable. Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly and punish him severely!"

The supervisory censor, Ye Haicheng, held a wat board, and walked out of the train, his expression was extremely livid.

"boom!"

A stone stirred up thousands of waves, and upon hearing Ye Haicheng's voice, the entire court shook suddenly, and all the officials, regardless of civil servants or generals, all showed extremely shocked expressions.

Beside the Panlong Pillar, even King Song, who had been watching from the sidelines and motionless, shrank his pupils abruptly, showing a look of extreme shock in his eyes.

The Holy Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has been in power for thirty or seven years, and his martial arts and martial arts are unparalleled in the world. He is known as the one emperor through the ages. Like this, it is rare for an emperor to be recognized by everyone as one emperor through the ages. However, the prosperity and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the heyday of military power, were witnessed by everyone.

Decades ago, the Holy Emperor unified the Great Army, fought south and north, defeated all opponents from all sides, made the surrounding countries bow their heads, and recognized the Great Tang as the strongest empire in the East. In the hands of the Holy Emperor, the territory of Middle-earth China has expanded to an unprecedented level.

This point, even the Great Qin Shihuang and Han Wudi, who were recognized thousands of years ago, never did it. Not to mention that the holy emperor's martial arts are extremely powerful, and he is the only existence infinitely close to the realm of divine martial arts for thousands of years.

And the Divine Martial Realm is the real god!

In Middle-earth China, before the Holy Emperor really hit the Divine Martial Realm, even for the top powerhouses, it was a mythical legend, illusory, and unverifiable existence.

In the Tang Empire, it was too late for everyone to be in awe of the Holy Emperor. No one thought that there would be someone who would dare to bully the emperor, and it was Anton's chief protector, Zhang Shougui!

"Did it start so soon?!"

Wang Chong stood at the end of the train, hearing the uproar in the court hall, his pupils shrank abruptly. Almost instinctively, Wang Chong sensed a conspiracy.

Since Khorasan, the Confucianists have been doing their best to let the Tang Yanwu cultivate the culture and put the horses on the Nanshan Mountains. However, the most opposed and most resistant are the generals and protectors of the various frontiers of the Tang Dynasty. The proposal of "abolishing the Xiang army" has been disturbed by Wang Chong, but the Confucianism obviously will not give up easily.

Zhang Shougui is the second most powerful figure in the military family, and Youzhou is managed by him as if it were his own territory. If not, Zhang Shougui would not have the courage to call a defeat a victory and lie to the court. If Zhang Shougui could be brought down, he would be able to make an example of others. Obviously, this would be the best warning Confucianism gave to all the great generals and chief protectors in the border areas.

Wang Chong was thinking in his mind when he heard a loud shout.

"Absurd! You Confucianists are doing everything they can to suppress the Ministry of War. Zhang Shougui is the Great General and Chief Protector of the Empire, and one of the most senior commanders in the Empire. , even the Uzbek Empire was defeated again and again in his hands, and countless troops were lost. After guarding Youzhou for so many years, the entire Northeast was at peace. Little Xi and Khitan! This is slander! Your Majesty, please be careful!"

An old minister of the Ministry of War couldn't bear it immediately, and suddenly walked out.

Zhang Shougui is the most famous number two figure in the Ministry of War, his status is almost no lower than that of the Great Tang War God Wang Zhongsi. Such a character is almost unknown to the generals of the older generation.

"Military affairs, how can there be fakes? On the banks of the Huangshui River, the corpses of Anton's guards are scattered all over the ground, blood flows like rivers, and countless soldiers are still lying there. Can this also be fake? Is this something that Confucian scholars can fake? What’s more, Zhang Shougui has always been arrogant. The imperial court sent Confucian scholars to supervise the army. This was the decision of the entire imperial court. Zhang Shougui dared to forcibly stop them. He even put them under house arrest. This is simply presumptuous! The land of Youzhou is about to become his own Does he still have national laws, regulations, and the Holy Emperor in his eyes? He is arrogant and conceited by nature, isn't it normal for such things to happen to him?"

On the side, an old Confucian official came out at the same time.
