With the list in hand, the officials involved in buying evil medicine had to be ‘invited’ to the Criminal Justice Division for a visit.
The noisy old men dispersed. Feng Taifu and Fang Yushi, who had been arguing as if they wanted to fight, looked at each other and smiled when they walked to the corridor where there was no one.
In this court, those who quarrel with flushed faces and fight with bare arms and disheveled hair are not necessarily enemies; those who are respectful and polite and pour wine and offer tea are not necessarily friends.
Lan Huaiyu was left in the imperial study, and Feng Yanzhao had already come down from above.
He had a smile on his face, but he felt that his smile might not be very good-looking, so he adjusted it.
“The evil cult harms people. The people don’t know the truth and are easily deceived. It’s better to hand this matter over to you than to anyone else, so that I can rest assured.
You draft the regulations yourself, and I will issue an edict that anyone involved with the evil cult will not be spared.”
Lan Huaiyu’s face was very indifferent, “Does Your Majesty mean that all the officials who appear on the list, including Tang Baixin, can be lightly punished?”
“There are too many people involved. If they are all beheaded at once, the ministries will be in chaos!”
The Emperor said so, with sincerity in his eyes.
It seemed that he wanted him to think more about his difficulties.
But what he got was the faint ridicule flowing out of those brown eyes, “All the officials know that Your Majesty doesn’t like court affairs, so they are very confident that Your Majesty is reluctant to abandon them. Once you abandon them, you will be tired.
Since ancient times, when the Son of Heaven is angry, millions of corpses fall, but today, the Son of Heaven dares not be angry.
The Great Ancestor is probably going to jump out of his tomb.”
“Tsk!”
The Emperor clicked his tongue, but didn’t know what to say.
In the end, he only said, “That is also your Great Ancestor, you think of a way to appease him.”
He turned and walked away with his hands behind his back, his steps were a little hurried, and it was obvious that he was running away.
Jiang Chuan quickly followed, bowing to Lan Huaiyu before leaving.
He couldn’t help but click his tongue repeatedly, the one who knew how to transfer heavy responsibilities the most throughout the ages was the current Emperor.
Twenty years ago, the princes fought for the throne, and all of them died in a bloody battle.
Feng Yanzhao, who had been a carefree hermit buying mountain tops and raising birds since he was a child, was put on the throne by the He family.
He didn’t like to do government affairs, and the He family took the lead. Although there were some dirty tricks, because the whole world knew that the He family was in power, they restrained themselves again and again.
They weren’t so blatant.
Later, Lan Huaiyu appeared, and the Emperor gave him great power. The He family came to their senses and felt that the puppet emperor was going to kill the dog after the rabbit was dead.
So they began a full-scale attack.
Who would have thought that Lan Huaiyu’s methods were swift and decisive, and the He family lost in every round, and even the crown prince was deposed last month.
To be honest, at the speed of the Duke’s swift and decisive actions, there really weren’t enough officials to be beheaded.
The various yamen might really be paralyzed.
It couldn’t be seen from Lan Huaiyu’s face whether he was satisfied or not, but his ridicule was real, and only directed at the Emperor.
No wonder the Emperor ran away quickly.
He took people to ‘invite’ people to various residences, and the carriage was blocked on the street.
A large number of Suning Guards blocked the long street, and there was a mixed battle in the center.
Along the street, the windows of the water alleys and shops were filled with heads, all watching the excitement.
The man who was surrounded was huge like a beast, with a fierce look and infinite strength.
Four Suning Guards attacked him, and he could grab them all at once and throw them out like throwing chickens.
Lan Huaiyu stood on the shaft of the carriage and looked over there. He saw Qingzhi wanting to jump on the back of the man’s neck for a surprise attack.
But his speed was a little slow and was noticed. The man not only dodged, but even punched him and sent him flying.
Seeing this, Lan Huaiyu’s expression couldn’t help but become serious. There were indeed many experts in the Black Robe Sect.
It was just that the Suning Guard might not be able to catch such a person. There were many tools, why were they all fighting hand-to-hand today?
The next moment, a blue shadow flashed past the strong man’s eyes half an arm’s length away at a speed that could not be seen with the naked eye.
He naturally reached out to grab it reflexively, just like he had grabbed others before.
But he didn’t want this shadow to be much faster than what he saw. When he reached out, it had already fallen on the back of his neck.
He only had time to see slender hands clasping his neck, and then the strong man became like a dead tree being pulled out of the ground.
Head down and feet up, he also shook in mid-air, as if he was playing mischievously, and finally slammed heavily on the ground.
There were a few more cracking sounds, and the joints of his arms and legs were all unloaded, and he could no longer move.
At this time, it could be seen clearly that the person who was playing with the strong man like a dead tree was a slender and graceful figure in green clothes.
Compared to the strong man, she was like an ant, but it was this ant that easily shook the big tree without any effort.
There was silence all around.
The next moment, Qingzhi jumped over, covering his ribs, “Our Madam is the number one expert in the Jianghu! She said that we would never be able to subdue this person with our bare hands, and you didn’t believe it! Do you believe it now?”
Chu Zhi was speechless.
She had already gone from having Jianghu connections to becoming the number one expert in the Jianghu.
Zhao Xi also ran over, first cupping his hands and bowing, “This subordinate is convinced! The brothers have been deadlocked with this person for a quarter of an hour and have not been able to take him down.
To be honest with Madam, we were holding the purpose of exhausting him, but this person is a bit strange. Even with such a wheel battle, he still doesn’t seem weak.
I wonder if Madam knows what the reason is?”
Chu Zhi didn’t hide anything, “Each thug in the evil cult is equipped with a kind of medicine that stimulates physical energy. At the critical moment, it can ensure that they have sufficient combat power. This person took the medicine in advance.
In the future, if you encounter such people on a mission in groups of two or three, don’t think about taking them down, and saving your lives should be the first priority.
When there are many people, take out the tools as soon as possible, and use all kinds of shameless methods, but you can’t be brave.”
Zhao Xi suddenly realized, so that’s how it was.
“That Madam, you just subdued him with your bare hands, I wonder if we can learn your trick?”
After Zhao Xi asked, the other brothers also looked at her with bright eyes.
She was too fast just now, and many people didn’t see clearly.
Chu Zhi smiled and shook her head, “You can’t learn it. It’s a secret method of the master’s school. From the time I was a swaddling baby, I ate a secret medicine from the master’s school to change my physique, and it’s too late for you.”
Everyone couldn’t help but feel regret.
Even if Madam generously gave them the secret medicine, it would be too late.
“Hey, the Duke is here!”
Everyone looked over, and Lan Huaiyu really came over.
Pulling out their knives, bowing.
The hawks and dogs who scared the people and officials away were absolutely respectful and obedient when they saw Lan Huaiyu.
Chu Zhi tilted her head slightly to look at him, “I heard that someone impeached you today?”
He stopped when he got close, and looked down at her slightly, “That’s right, more than a dozen old men were used, and the imperial study was almost turned upside down by them.”
Chu Zhi understood that what he did put him in a dangerous situation.
“So I am very high-profile today. Soon your enemies will be able to hear about it, and I think I will be able to share some of the firepower for you next, to be worthy of the gold and silver treasures you gave me in seven years.”
Lan Huaiyu smiled after she finished speaking. The reason he didn’t want her to suppress her nature was because he felt that it was already a grievance to marry him to ward off bad luck.
Then let her be wanton and do whatever she wants.
He really hadn’t considered letting her share any firepower.
