Chapter 641 Verification

"Welcome to the Heavenly Lord!"

The entire Tianjie was greeted by the streets, and even Feng Xinglie and the other three commanders were waiting here early.

It's not that they don't want to host the reception in the Commander's Mansion, it's just that Ying Hui didn't pay attention to them at all. He sent the message and asked them to wait in Tianjie.

Reluctance to meet anyone at the Commander's Mansion in advance is actually tantamount to making his attitude clear.

Falling from the air, Ying Hui looked indifferent, with only three or four followers following behind him.

"No need to say any more nonsense! I just want to know, where is the arrested person?"

After glancing at everyone, Ying Hui asked in a deep voice.

"Huitianjun, all the shopkeepers who were arrested are now in Jinyuan."

Bowing slightly, Yuan Chang stepped forward and answered.

There was no way, Wu Chi had captured the man, and Wu Chi was nominally his. At this time, he couldn't hide.

His eyes fell on Yuan Chang, and Ying Hui said lightly, "Yuan Chang, I heard that you are from the Guards?"

"yes!"

Bowing in reply, Yuan Chang explained, "When I was in the Guards, my subordinates followed Kuimu Tianjun."

Nodding slightly, Ying Hui said noncommittally, "Lead the way to Jinyuan."

Except for Yuan Chang, Ying Hui never spoke to anyone. Such an indifferent attitude could not help but make everyone feel chilly.

Following Yuan Chang and the others, Wu Chi remained silent, but couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart.

Yuan Chang deliberately mentioned Kuimu Tianjun, obviously intending to close the relationship! But even so, Ying Hui didn't ask any more questions, and obviously didn't mean to give face.

Now that the talent has just arrived, they go directly to Jinyuan, which really feels a bit selfless.

............

When Ying Hui stepped into Jinyuan, he had already ordered people to bring up all the arrested shopkeepers.

"thump!"

The moment they saw Ying Hui, all the shopkeepers immediately knelt down together.

"The villain pays homage to the Heavenly Lord."

Sitting down on the chair naturally, Ying Hui didn't even blink, let alone let the shopkeepers get up, and asked calmly, "It is said that the commander of Tianjie increased taxes privately, and you are not willing to close the shop now, but Is this happening?"

Without any nonsense, Ying Hui went straight to the topic as soon as he opened his mouth. The indifference in his words made people involuntarily feel fearful.

"Back to Tianjun! Previously, Wu Chi, the commander of Tianjie, sent someone to send a message, saying that all the shops in Tianjie must pay an additional tax of 200,000 star power every year! The villain is just taking care of the shops, so naturally he can't make the final decision. ...I didn’t expect that the next day, Commander Wu would seize the shop and arrest people on the grounds that we were disobeying orders! Everything the villain said is true, and you must not deceive the Lord Tian.”

"Where is Wu Chi?"

Raising his head, Ying Hui asked coldly.

"Wu Chi, the commander of Tianjie, pays homage to Tianjun!"

When he mentioned himself, Wu Chi couldn't help but twitch his brows, and immediately came out and bowed to salute.

"In the early days of Broken Star... Hey, when did the Commander of Tianjie become so worthless?" Ying Hui glanced at Wu Chi and sneered disdainfully.

"Tianjun doesn't know something! Although Wu Chi only has the cultivation level of Broken Star in the early stage, he comes from the Immortal Palace, and his strength is definitely not inferior to that of other commanders." Wu Chi's appointment was made by Yuan Chang, and now he naturally has no choice but to explain.

"oh?"

After being slightly startled, Ying Hui took a serious look at Wu Chi and said, "Are you a disciple of the Immortal Palace? Which palace?"

"This subordinate is from the Sword Palace!" Wu Chi immediately replied honestly.

"Since you are a disciple of the Immortal Palace, if you don't stay in the Immortal Palace to practice well, why come here to join in the fun?" Ying Hui snorted coldly and asked again.

Those who can become the core disciples of the Immortal Palace are all extremely outstanding geniuses, and they only have the strength of the early Broken Stars. No matter how you look at it, there is no reason to leave the Immortal Palace.

"Back to Tianjun, my subordinates have an old relationship with the Feng family. I got this appointment letter from the Feng family when I was in the Immortal Palace. But I had no experience at the time and directly entered the star power mark! According to the rules of the heaven, it must be He has to take office within a hundred years, so he has no choice but to come and take office.”

Hearing Wu Chi's words, Ying Hui couldn't help but have a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Feng family?"

This time Wu Chi didn't answer, he just stood there honestly, looking cautious.

However, Feng Xinglie was so angry at this moment that he wanted to curse!

Wu Chi, this bastard, is clearly trying to trick him!

He obviously got the appointment letter from the Feng family, but instead became Yuan Chang's subordinate. No matter how you look at it, there is something strange about it.

If we infer this, we may even suspect that Wu Chi is the person he placed under Yuan Chang.

In this case...Wu Chi's move to seal Tianjie is worth pondering.

Naturally, Ying Hui would not know the inside story of this, and he obviously had no interest in investigating these matters. He picked up the tea cup on the table and said calmly, "Tell me, what is going on with the private tax increase?" ?”

It was just a simple sentence, but the pressure it brought to everyone at this moment was simply unparalleled.

Wu Chi seemed to be equally frightened. He couldn't help but look up at Yuan Chang and Feng Xinglie, and then replied in a low voice, "Back to Tianjun, it's just a villain who was obsessed with wealth and raised taxes privately... I'm willing to do my best." bear."

Wu Chi's words were impassioned and full of righteousness.

However, the moment these words were spoken, both Yuan Chang and Feng Xinglie couldn't help but curse in their hearts.

Do you bear all the responsibility? fart!

Can you bear this responsibility? If you could really afford it alone, everyone would have pushed you out together to take the blame, why would there be so much trouble?

"Are you responsible for it all?" Ying Hui said calmly with a hint of sarcasm, "I'm very curious. As a mere leader of Tianjie, even if you want to raise taxes privately... why can you persuade others to help you? Seize the shop?"

"You don't want to tell me that you, the commander of Tianjie, can already surpass the three commanders, right?"

"My subordinates dare not!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chi's face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down and answered with his head lowered.

After taking a sip of tea, Ying Hui continued, "Do you think that since you are a disciple of the Immortal Palace, I will not kill you? Raising taxes without permission is a serious crime. Once it is verified, it is not just you... I can even kill you. Nine tribes!”

The terrifying pressure suddenly swept over Wu Chi, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on Wu Chi's head, with big drops falling down.

Staring at Wu Chi, Ying Hui asked calmly, "Now, you still want to say, will you take full responsibility for this matter?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Wu Chi turned pale and immediately retorted, "Tianjun Mingjian, this subordinate... I don't dare! I don't have the guts, nor the ability."

"Tell me, who ordered you?"

Ying Hui asked solemnly with a chill in his eyes.

"Yes... yes... I don't dare to say it." His head was covered with cold sweat, but Wu Chi gritted his teeth and still did not answer.

"Somebody come!"

"Yes!" After hearing Ying Hui's words, a follower immediately stood up.

With a hint of coldness in his eyes, Ying Hui said calmly, "Drag him down and kill him."

Upon hearing this cold command, Wu Chi suddenly panicked and shouted hurriedly, "It's Master Yuan Chang, Tianjun Mingjian!"

Waving his hand and signaling the attendant to step back, Ying Hui continued, "I will give you one last chance... You'd better think clearly before answering! Otherwise, if I find out, you are still lying. No one can save you!"

"..."

Sweat soaked through Wu Chi's vest. Wu Chi opened his mouth and finally lowered his head slumped, "It was Commander Feng who asked me to do it. I bribed everyone... Please forgive me, Lord Heaven!"

"Nonsense!"

After hearing Wu Chi's words, Feng Xinglie couldn't help but stood up and shouted harshly.

"I, did you let me speak?"

Ying Hui asked coldly as his electric gaze suddenly shot towards Feng Xinglie.

"..."

Feng Xinglie paused for a moment, then bowed and said in salute, "I know my fault! It's just Wu Chi who spoke nonsense and slandered my innocence. In anger, he lost control of his emotions. Please forgive me."

Glancing at Feng Xinglie, Ying Hui was still noncommittal.

"Fellow shopkeepers, can you still recognize who it was that sealed the shop?"

Turning around, Ying Hui asked again.

"Okay!" Facing Ying Hui, these shopkeepers all replied honestly and hastily.

"This is Jinyuan... Theoretically, all the guards who manage Tianjie are in Jinyuan, right?" Ying Hui asked again.

"yes!"

This time Feng Xinglie, Liu Yueyan, and Yuan Chang answered at the same time.

"very good!"

Nodding, Ying Hui lightly ordered, "Xiao Qi, take them down to identify them!"

"yes!"

The attendant who just stood up immediately and took these shopkeepers down.

After returning to the chair and sitting down, Ying Hui continued, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

"Huitianjun! There is no need to investigate. Those who sealed the shops are my subordinates." Yuan Chang stood up and replied in a deep voice.

"Oh?" Ying Hui turned to Yuan Chang and said, "So, is it your order to raise taxes privately?"

"My subordinates dare not!"

Yuan Chang immediately shook his head and said, "This person is mine, but this matter... my subordinates don't know about it!"

"This is interesting!" Ying Hui said leisurely, "He is yours, but you don't know it... Do you want to say that you don't have the ability to be the commander-in-chief, or do you think that I am easy to bully?"

After bowing, Yuan Chang continued, "Tianjun Mingjian, his subordinates are from the Guards. Over the years, they have never interfered in the affairs of Tianhua Star! Tianjie was only involved in Tianjie not long ago... In fact, Wu Chi just intervened before In the hundred years since I took office, I have been unable to manage anything in Tianjie, and I have even been called an incompetent commander because of this!"

"Tianjun can ask someone to verify this matter! Let me ask you, for such a Tianjie commander, how could his subordinates think that he would dare to suddenly order a tax increase or even close down shops?"

In a few words, Yuan Chang just took it out and said, "This subordinate is incompetent, and I am willing to accept the crime of dereliction of duty! However, the laws of heaven are above, and my subordinates have no courage to increase taxes without authorization. Please give me a clear warning."
