Text Chapter 1594 Another Accident
As expected, Sima Wentian and Gao Guan exchanged glances. The Huangfu family was indeed in trouble. Using the shadow guards to completely solve the hidden dangers was the rhythm of eradicating the Huangfu family.
However, to their surprise, Shangguan Qing had a bitter face and repeatedly bowed his hands to plead: "Your Majesty, the people involved in the Heroes Association are too wide and too complicated. It is difficult to change people rashly. Just contacting the people from all parties, whether openly or secretly, is a huge trouble. This process will take a lot of time. And this time, it was because I put too much pressure on the Heroes Association that there was a leak. In general, the Huangfu family has done more good than bad over the years, and they are competent and loyal to Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to give the Huangfu family another chance!"
Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and stared at Shangguan Qing for a while, and finally said slowly: "You can handle this matter. If there is any mistake again, you will be the one to blame!" He snorted and left.
Sima Wentian and Gao Guan looked at each other in surprise. They didn't expect that Shangguan Qing didn't completely shirk responsibility. At the last moment, he even helped the Huangfu family.
When the two of them left the East Palace and walked side by side, Gao Guan said calmly, "It seems that Shangguan still has some conscience and won't burn bridges after crossing the river."
Sima Wentian chuckled, "I'm afraid not, but I see some other clues."
"Oh!" Gao Guan glanced sideways, "Could it be that Shangguan has other plans?"
Sima Wentian: "The Huangfu family has been in charge of the Heroes Meeting for a long time and has become powerful. Unless they are determined to do it, it's not something that anyone can do. I'm afraid they have mastered a lot of Shangguan's secrets. Huangfu Liankong is not a vegetarian. Shangguan dares to guarantee that Huangfu Liankong has no tricks up his sleeve? After all, it's related to his life and property. If he really forces him into a desperate situation, hehe..." He didn't say much.
Gao Guan's eyes flickered slightly, and he said "Oh" meaningfully.
Before the two of them walked out of the Heavenly Palace, Shangguan Qing caught up with them from behind and bowed repeatedly, saying: "Excuse me, it's not that I want to push the responsibility onto the Huangfu family. I have no choice. If I can't even protect myself, how can I protect the Huangfu family?"
Seemingly afraid that the two of them would think too much, he even came to explain.
Gao Guan was cold. He didn't comment. Sima Wentian laughed and said: "I understand, I understand."
Shangguan Qing sighed: "Thank you for your help this time. I will remember this favor."
The two of them laughed in their hearts. How dare you not remember it? You are equivalent to having a handle in our hands.
But then again, I accompanied this incident. It's really hard to use this handle casually. After all, I am also involved and also deceiving His Majesty.
However, Sima Wentian said politely: "It's too formal to say this. Only we know the difficulties we have in doing things down there. It's not good for us to make these things happen. Who would hope for something to happen? In the end, it's all for the good of His Majesty."
"Hey! Who said it wasn't? Only we know the difficulties. Let's not talk about this." Shangguan Qing bowed to Gao Guan and said: "Right Envoy Gao, please pay attention to the things His Majesty ordered. Don't make any more mistakes. Make sure to bring Jiang Yiyi back alive. If you don't confirm the matter, you don't know what will happen later."
Gao Guan nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I have put pressure on Niu Youde and sent a master over. Once we receive the person, we will use the secret channel of the right department to transfer him back immediately. Nothing will happen."
"That's good, that's good." Shangguan Qing let out a long breath, which was considered to have passed the test.
Originally, he didn't want these two people to know about this matter. He only wanted to find Sima Wentian. Gao Guan was really too cold. Sima Wentian could cooperate with some things, but Gao Guan might not. However, the power in his hands is all shameful. He cannot directly put pressure on the Ghost City General Town Government, and Sima Wentian is the same. However, Gao Guan's Supervisory Right Department can legitimately intervene directly. This is a last resort to ask Gao Guan for help. Fortunately, Gao Guan gave him enough face and helped him this time. He also played a play with him.
After walking out of the Heavenly Palace, the three of them subconsciously looked back and sighed in their hearts. The three of them joined forces to do this. In a sense, it is more fearful for the person inside than Jiang Yiyi's matter.
Although the power of the person inside is supreme, the world's affairs are not something that the person inside can see with a pair of ears and a pair of eyes. Therefore, whether it is the secular king or the person inside, what they fear most is that someone will deceive the holy wisdom. It is precisely because of this that the person inside did not let the power of various supervisory agencies be in the hands of one person, and divided them up, either openly or secretly. Sima Wentian was in charge of the left department, Gao Guan was in charge of the right department, and Shangguan Qing was in charge of the group of heroes. This was a kind of check and balance, just to prevent other channels from being informed after one channel was blocked. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous to have all the eyes and ears in the hands of one person.
However, this time, these three eyes and ears that were supposed to check and balance each other joined forces to deceive Shengcong, directly turning the person inside into a deaf and blind person. Once the person inside knew about it, the consequences would be very serious. Thinking about this matter makes people a little scared.
Sima Wentian and Gao Guan also deeply understood why Shangguan Qing did not let Pojun intervene. Pojun would not accompany him to do such things. As long as he opened his mouth, Pojun would immediately mobilize troops to arrest Shangguan Qing.
"The Huangfu family must keep their mouths shut." Sima Wentian said lightly before leaving.
Shangguan Qing nodded knowingly, "Don't worry, I know what to do. The Huangfu family is not fools when it comes to losing their heads."
Ghost Market, Restaurant.
"Did Jiang Yiyi really fall into Niu Youde's hands?"
"There is no smoke without fire. Who knows? That's what people say anyway."
"Tsk tsk, Niu Youde is really amazing. The rapist has been caught for so many years in the Heavenly Court, but he actually fell into his hands."
"What do you mean he can't be caught? It's nothing more than arguing with each other. What is Niu Youde's background now? The Kou family must support him from behind and give him a chance to make merit. Look, the rapist has been caught."
"Yes! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? It must be the credit of the Kou family."
"Hey! It's good to have a background. I heard that he was originally demoted to a silver-armored heavenly soldier, but in a blink of an eye, he was inexplicably promoted six levels to a black-armored heavenly soldier. It's okay to be a black-armored heavenly soldier, but he can actually sit in the position of the general commander. If it were someone else, I wouldn't even dare to think about it. Think about it! Look, this is another merit that has come to you. It's so annoying to compare yourself with others."
"I heard that Jiang Yiyi was caught in an inn outside the general town's mansion. It's possible that Niu Youde really caught him himself."
"Huh! Jiang Yiyi appeared outside the general town's mansion? That's interesting. What does Jiang Yiyi do? Could it be that Jiang Yiyi was going after Niu Youde's wife?"
"Hehe! If that's the case, then Jiang Yiyi has no way to live. Don't you see how much trouble Niu Youde made for that woman in Youding Territory? He even killed the governor of a dignified territory. How can he be allowed to blaspheme? He will definitely die!"
In the restaurant, a group of people were whispering and talking. Almost all of the things they talked about were related to the arrest of the lecher Jiang Yiyi. They were all people who didn't know the truth and were making all kinds of associations. Those who really knew the truth would not say a word.
At a table in the corner, an old woman wearing a felt hat listened silently for a while. When she heard the words behind her, her eyes flashed quickly. She couldn't sit still anymore. She put down the teacup in her hand and quietly got up and left.
After leaving the restaurant, the old woman took out the star bell and contacted Miao Yi directly, asking: Brother, did you catch Jiang Yiyi?
The old woman was none other than Yue Yao in disguise. She was originally going to see Miao Yi.
For so many years, the brother and sister have not met, and the main reason is Miao Yi. When she was in the Guards, Yue Yao was not convenient to go there. Then Miao Yi was either in the Imperial Garden or in the Ancient Death Land. Later, a series of troubles occurred. Yue Yao was also frightened when she heard the news. It was not convenient to meet him all the time. This time, she heard that Miao Yi was demoted to the Ghost Market, which was a convenient place to meet, so she ran to see him. Who knew that as soon as she arrived, she heard about Jiang Yiyi's arrest everywhere, which surprised her a lot. She didn't expect that Jiang Yiyi, whom she could no longer contact, would come to the Ghost Market.
Especially when he heard that Miao Yi might kill Jiang Yiyi, he was even more anxious. He couldn't help but contact him directly before he arrived at the General Town Mansion, fearing that he would be late.
Miao Yi was a little surprised: Lao San, why are you asking this?
Yue Yao: I just asked if it was true?
Miao Yi: Jiang Yiyi is in my hands, what's wrong?
Yue Yao: Are you going to kill him?
Miao Yi: What does it have to do with you whether I kill him or not? Lao San, what do you mean?
Yue Yao: You can't kill him! I'm in the ghost market and will be at the General Town Mansion soon.
Miao Yi: You can't kill him? Lao San, you won't tell me that Jiang Yiyi is from your immortal way, right?
He didn't think of it at all, and didn't think that Lao San could have any special relationship with the rapist, unless Lao San had a brain problem.
Yue Yao: Let's talk about it when we meet. Anyway, you can't kill him, otherwise don't blame me for not recognizing you as my eldest brother.
After the contact was cut off, Miao Yi called Yang Zhaoqing to go outside to meet him, and wandered in the hall, a little puzzled. He was a little confused about what Yue Yao meant. If Jiang Yiyi was really someone planted by Xiandao in the Heroes Meeting, it would be a bit troublesome. Gao Guan had already put pressure on him before, and the person must be handed over alive to the right department of the Supervisory Department.
After a while, Yun Zhiqiu entered the hall, and seeing that he was worried, he came over and hugged his arm and asked, "What's wrong?"
Miao Yi sighed, "The third sister came to the ghost market and will be here soon. She repeatedly told me not to kill Jiang Yiyi."
Yun Zhiqiu was stunned: "What does it mean?"
Miao Yi shook his head: "I don't understand either. Let's talk about it when we meet."
Not long after, Yang Zhaoqing brought Yueyao dressed as an old woman. When they met, Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu looked up and down at Yueyao's outfit.
Miao Yi didn't want too many people to know about the real relationship between Yueyao and himself, including some confidants, so he waved his hand to let Yang Zhaoqing leave.
As soon as Yang Zhaoqing left, before Miao Yi could speak, Yue Yao excitedly asked, "Brother, where is Jiang Yiyi?"
Miao Yi frowned and said, "In the dungeon! I say, Third Brother, what's going on? How did you get involved with this rapist?"
Yue Yao stepped forward and grabbed his arm, emotionally unstable, "Brother, you didn't do anything to him, did you? Take me to see him."
Miao Yi pushed her hand away, "Third Brother, explain what's going on first."
But Yue Yao didn't want to wait a moment, and was eager to see him, "Brother, I want to see him, take me." She grabbed Miao Yi's arm and dragged him out. (To be continued.)
