Chapter 343 The confrontation between the palace (two in one)
Under the escort of the leader, he descended the mountain from the sect.
Brother Qing and the four of them, together with Senior Brother Zhuo, rushed straight towards the Imperial Capital the moment they left Yishan Sect.
The journey is long, but the journey back is much quicker.
After two days, they returned to the imperial capital again.
Now, there is one day left until the end of the year.
However, although the weather was cold, the weather was nice, and bright red decorations were hung outside the city gate. Pedestrians were beaming with joy, pushing piles of New Year's goods in and out of the imperial capital city gate.
It was the first time for Senior Brother Zhuo to come to the Imperial Capital. He was attracted by the prosperity in front of him. He was a little distracted and looked around the area.
The festival is approaching, and many famous monks or celebrities are also in the imperial capital at the moment, hoping to see the grand occasion of the festival.
These people come from various dynasties.
It is also like this. As a cultivator of gods, Brother Zhuo, of course, couldn't take his eyes away when he saw so many masters of gods, caves, and tribulations at once.
To be honest, if it's not business, it's important.
The moment he saw Da Qi's Li Cheng's 'Master Li' just now, he really wanted to go over and say, 'I went to your sect to see you three years ago!'
But at the same time, while Senior Brother Zhuo was watching celebrities from all over the world, he was following Brother Qing and others as they walked forward.
However, Brother Qing and others were secretly transmitting messages, discussing returning to the Ministry of Personnel and looking for Daoist Cui.
Moreover, they had sent a message with flying swords before, saying that "Master Cui" should wait at the Ministry of Personnel.
As long as they see Mr. Cui, they will hand over Senior Brother Zhuo and then wait patiently for Cui Daoist Brother's "Great Merit!"
In other words, as long as a confrontation begins, one party will always be in trouble.
Because Senior Brother Zhuo is a real local.
Then if he couldn't recognize the six people in the team, or if the six people in the team couldn't answer any of Senior Brother Zhuo's questions about the sect, it would be obvious.
Especially in their speculation, the three Mo brothers may also be players.
Therefore, the Mo family and others may also give the six members of the team a heavy blow for the sake of profit.
Although the plan was good, Lao Zheng still had a lot of worries as he walked. He recounted to Brother Qing,
‘Brother Qing, although our plan is perfect, what if the six of them deny it?
You must know that this person named Zhuo can only mean that he was a disciple of Guangyang Sect a hundred years ago.
But it doesn't mean that he can deny that those six people had fake identities!
Because the six of them could also bite back, saying that the identity of Zhuo was false, or that Cui Daoyou was eager to perform meritorious services and wanted to eliminate his "competitors."
I think the bad thing about this is that those six people, like Cui Daoyou, have all received orders from the prince, and they entered the mansion earlier than Cui Daoyou.
There is a high chance that today's confrontation will be interpreted by the prince as "internal fighting."
If that’s the case...’
"What's going on?" Brother Qing first interrupted Lao Zheng's message, then looked behind him at Senior Brother Zhuo who was watching the bustling street scene and not paying attention to them, and finally turned to look at Lao Zheng.
'Are you trying to say that our evidence is not 100% sure that those six people could be put to death?'
'Yes.' Taoist Xie confirmed this time, 'I feel this method is inappropriate. But Brother Qing should have already thought about the follow-up to this matter, right?'
'Taoist Xie is right.' Brother Qing answered the three of them with a positive tone, 'What is the main purpose of our trip this time? Isn't it just that we want to kill the Mo brothers and the six people of the Guangyang Sect?
By the way, let’s borrow Taoist Cui’s path to get to know the prince?
Now, as long as this witness is handed over, it doesn't matter whether the six people can be executed.
Just saying that can make the prince suspicious of those six people will also make Cui Daoyou be questioned by the prince.
Since Taoist Cui has betrayed his friends for glory, is he going to turn us in?
In this way, not only did we come closer to the prince's sight, but Cui Daoyou and the six members of the Guangyang Sect were also suspected by the prince due to many factors.
After all, I would rather believe that something exists than something that doesn’t exist.
The real testimony of Daoist friend Zhuo is here. I believe that normal people would not dare to reuse the six members of the Guangyang Sect anymore, right?'
When Brother Qing said this, he looked at Taoist Xiao Zhou and Xie next to him, "It is the fundamental core of the plan to pull Taoist Cui and the six people off their horses so that we can appear in the prince's sight."
Do you two think the same as me?’
'Brother Qing is still Brother Qing.' Xiaozhou shook his head, 'It's the same, but can you wait until I say it first before asking? Otherwise, it will be like I didn't know until I heard about it.'
'I agree with this plan.' Taoist Xie affirmed it seriously, 'It's not very different from my idea, you can give it a try.'
'So that's it...' Old Zheng also suddenly smiled and said: 'I'm telling you, Brother Qing, in addition to running away players' evidence, he has also been perfecting our identities these days.
It turns out that after the Guangyang Sect is revealed, we will definitely come into the prince's sight.
At that time, we are likely to be investigated by others just like today.
But now our identity is firmly established and there are no flaws.’
Lao Zheng said, praising Brother Qing's long-term plan for the first time.
Because to be honest, the month they verified could be compressed to about twenty days.
It's just that there are more "detailed verifications in various places" on the road, so time has passed a lot.
Of course, this detailed investigation in various places was actually Brother Qing's use of this opportunity to leave the imperial capital to search for the customs and customs of various places. Finally, he found suitable identities for the four people and produced a lot of evidence.
Logically speaking, after they return this time, in addition to the Mo family and others who rebelled against the prince's mansion, they can also complete their identities.
But now that they have learned about Brother Qing's plan, they have already followed Brother Qing's instructions and are not in a hurry to report these evidences to improve their identities.
Instead, they waited for others to suspect them, and then relied on the help of officials to confirm their local identity.
This kind of official certification and the process of first doubting and then confirming make people more credible.
There is no way, smart people like to find evidence themselves, rather than others providing relevant explanations.
And as time passes.
When they arrived at the Ministry of Civil Affairs, they handed Brother Zhuo over to fellow Taoist Cui who came.
Cui Daoyou was also thinking about his merits and not being sent to the enemy, regardless of whether he corrected the six members of the team, so he brought Senior Brother Zhuo over.
After all, he believed in the majesty of the prince, and under the majesty of the prince, the four native officials, Brother Qing, did not dare to play tricks on him.
Including Cui Daoyou, I also checked a lot of information during this period, and found that the time when the six people in the team entered the imperial capital and what they did were very problematic.
Only players can discover such problems.
So, it’s not just about making colleagues, teammates, or colleagues. Fellow Taoist Cui is familiar with this.
As long as Senior Brother Zhuo can determine the authenticity of the matter, he will definitely make the six members of the team miserable.
Who knows that in the past few days, the six members of the team have not helped him share the task of checking players.
Fellow Daoist Cui also went to the palace and followed closely to report.
Zhang Feng, who was stabilizing his state in the mansion, heard the report from the old housekeeper that Cui Daoyou had indeed found evidence, so he asked the old housekeeper to send a message and ordered the six members of the team and the three brothers of the Mo family to come.
Also in the process of sound transmission.
Zhang Feng still took advantage of the break to practice, trying to explore the realm of Dongxu Xiaosheng.
Not surprisingly, and according to his own plan, he entered the cave realm more than twenty days ago.
And three days ago, Dongxu's realm was completely stable, and what was left was Dongxu's small success.
With the improvement of realm, the spiritual consciousness has changed again. If it were expanded, it would now easily spread over thousands of miles.
Just like the Thousand Miles Flying Sword on TV to take off a person's head, it is very easy for me. With the passing of my spiritual consciousness, I can do it in an instant.
At the same time, Zhang Feng continued to experience the other wonders of Dongxu.
Wait half an hour later.
Everyone gathered in the lobby.
When Zhang Feng heard the news, he also walked out of the house, passed through five courtyards, and came in from the front yard of the lobby. He passed by Cui Daoyou and others who bowed their heads and saluted, and sat in the first place.
In the courtyard outside the hall, there are Gao Xiaowei and others standing, guarding the safety here.
It was Zhang Feng who didn't let them in.
"I have met the prince!" In the hall, Cui Daoyou and others saw the prince sitting down and saluted together.
Zhang Feng waved his hand to let them stand up, and then looked at Senior Brother Zhuo behind him.
The man was trembling and seemed to be scared.
But seeing as this person was brought here by Cui Daoyou, he must be a witness.
In order to let him relax, Zhang Feng waved his hand slightly and asked the high school lieutenant and others in the courtyard to retreat outside the courtyard and be on guard.
Not to mention, the upright and loyal Senior Brother Zhuo was very moved when he saw that the powerful prince cared so much about him, a little person. He was so moved that his pressure was reduced.
"Your Highness!" Fellow Taoist Cui saw the prince looking at Senior Brother Zhuo, and knew that the prince had something to ask, so he walked forward halfway up the road with a clear mind: "This fellow Daoist Zhuo was a disciple of the Guangyang Sect a hundred years ago, and he is here to testify today."
Cui Daoyou said, briefly introducing some of the identities of Senior Brother Zhuo.
'Guangyang Sect...' When the three Mo brothers heard this, they didn't look at the six members of the team, but they knew in their hearts that this matter was for them!
For a moment, I thought I was gloating over my misfortune, but this was really not the case.
On the contrary, they think Cui Daoyou can find the palace and find them. Will they also check the three brothers in the future?
The eldest brother thought to himself, feeling a bit sad that the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead.
But he didn't say anything, and just watched everything unfold.
'Guangyang Sect...' When the six members of the team heard that this matter was directed at them, they looked at Senior Brother Zhuo a few more times, feeling that today they were about to play a game of life and death!
Involuntarily, they all looked at the captain, expecting him to make suggestions.
The captain stood calmly, as if he had thought about such a day for a long time.
But when Zhang Feng heard that Fellow Daoist Cui led someone to correct the six members of the team, he found it interesting and signaled to Senior Brother Zhuo, who was bowing respectfully, to speak frankly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Senior Brother Zhuo stood up slowly, took a deep breath, and after dispelling some of the pressure in front of the Prince, he glanced around and looked at the six people in the team next to him.
According to the portraits given by Brother Qing, he recognized that these six people were the 'six senior brothers who pretended to be his dead sect!'
"My Excellency, Zhuo Qing..." Senior Brother Zhuo tried his best to contain the questioning and anger in his words, clasping his fists at the six people and asking: "May I ask the six fellow Taoists... if they are my disciples of Guangyang Sect?"
"Exactly." The captain spoke with a calm expression, and pretended to look at Senior Brother Zhuo a few times before saying, "Is this Fellow Daoist Zhuo also a fellow disciple of my Guangyang Sect?"
"I have been living in the sect since its establishment." Senior Brother Zhuo said truthfully: "I'm sorry to say that although I don't know why the six of them pretended to be my disciples of Guangyang Sect, I have never seen six fellow Taoists.
, and I have never heard of the names of the six fellow Taoists."
"Humph..." The captain shook his head and laughed, "Fellow Daoist Zhuo was a little angry when he came up, saying that there was something wrong with the identity of the six of us. I also want to say that we have been in the sect for many years and have never seen you, Daoist Zhuo. I don't know, Friend Zhuo.
Who ordered you to come here to slander us?"
"You!" Senior Brother Zhuo saw the six people in the team making sophistry and slander, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he shouted: "I dare to swear to God and make an oath of heaven. I was a disciple of Guangyang Sect a hundred years ago!
And all the folks from hundreds of miles around can testify for me, you..."
"Our Guangyang Sect has never had incense, nor has it been blessed by national luck..." When the captain heard that Senior Brother Zhuo wanted more witnesses, his heart moved for a moment, and he followed the question that Senior Brother Zhuo had asked before.
.
Otherwise, if the prince goes to the vicinity of Guangyang Sect and lets the people from ten miles and eight villages see him and confirm the identity of Senior Brother Zhuo, then the six of them will be relatively deceitful.
Therefore, interrupt when necessary. In addition, he was following Brother Zhuo's question. This is called expressing one's own opinions.
And as the captain said, he seemed to have done enough homework on the rules of heaven and directly rejected the proposal of the oath of heaven and said,
"Our sect is not favored by heaven and is an idle sect.
If you make an oath of heaven, you are also taking refuge in a big family. With the blessing of incense, you are bound by the heaven of that party.
or.."
When the captain said this, he bowed to Zhang Feng, who was at the top of the list, and then said: "Maybe you can serve the imperial court or which lord you serve, and with the blessing of the country, you will be controlled by heaven.
But now that the Guangyang Sect has passed away, even if we make the oath, what's the use?
If this method works..."
The captain said, looking at the glaring Senior Brother Zhuo, "Are there so many 'treacherous people' in Daqi?
Isn’t it true that whoever makes an oath without the will of heaven can commit a deception?”
"I..." Senior Brother Zhuo heard the captain calling him a liar in various ways. He felt aggrieved in every way, but he didn't know where to start.
What the captain said was that his words were indeed unconvincing.
"What Fellow Daoist Fang said makes sense..." The eldest of the three Mo brothers saw that the captain had the upper hand in the debate, so he helped to speak out.
This also caused several of the six people in the team to look at the three Mo family members. This kind of help in times of need made them feel a lot better about the three people from the Mo family family.
As expected, the boss of the Mo family wants to form an 'alliance' with the six members of the team.
Otherwise, if the six members of the team are really cleared out, the rest will be left in limbo.
But at this moment, Cui Daoyou saw that the matter was at an impasse, and knew that if this matter was passed hastily, the team and the Mo family with backers would never make it easier for him, he felt a hatred in his heart, stepped forward, cupped his fists and saluted the prince,
"Your Majesty, if we argue about this matter like this, there seems to be no result.
But Fellow Daoist Zhuo said that he has lived near Guangyang Sect for nearly a hundred years. If we investigate like this, as long as we can confirm the identity of Fellow Daoist Zhuo, everything will be obvious."
"It's not appropriate." The captain directly denied it, and clasped his fists towards the prince again, admonishing him like a loyal minister, "Your Majesty, the New Year is approaching and the festival is about to start. It is not appropriate to leave the imperial capital..."
The captain said, borrowing the etiquette of this world to perform the "drag" technique.
As long as they can delay it, even if it takes one more day or half a day, they will have "free time" to think of a way to solve this matter.
Of course, it all depends on the prince’s decision whether to delay or go today.
As a result, everyone in the lobby was bowing and looking at the prince in the first place, waiting for his orders.
But when Zhang Feng saw this and watched the whole process, he found it interesting.
Because the witnesses Cui Daoyou found were impartial and chose the people around him, who he had once suspected to be the player.
So now there are only three possibilities.
First, Cui Daoyou was doing business, and he happened to suspect the six members of the team, so of course he wanted to 'clear the king's side' for the sake of the prince.
Zhang Feng was very pleased.
But secondly, Cui Daoyou’s original character was to seek glory, so to a large extent, he wanted to eliminate some competitors and then be reused by himself.
If this is the case, Zhang Feng feels that this person is not bad, at least he has found evidence.
But these three, Fellow Daoist Cui can clearly understand the meaning of 'player' in his words, or in other words, the people sent out by Fellow Daoist Cui can perfectly use the six people in the team as an entry point.
Why do you suspect the six members of the team?
Brother Qing and the four of them dared to blatantly doubt the people of the prince's palace. This was not something that the natives could do.
In addition, they can suspect that the six members of the team are players. It is impossible to say that this is intuition, right?
You must know that in this world, the imperial court is too powerful and the level is too high, so no player dares to reveal his whereabouts.
Cui Daoyou could suspect the six people in the team just by his own words. Most likely, he had already noticed the six people in the team.
If you have noticed these six inconspicuous tribulation monks a long time ago, or in other words, who will pay special attention to the players, it must be the players.
The basis is the time of arrival, which is a point of doubt.
Finally, connect everything together and add who is the final beneficiary.
Zhang Feng thought about it and could only think of the four military attachés from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Brother Qing.
If I guessed correctly now.
They are now waiting to summon them and then investigate them.
After that, their identity will definitely be perfect without any blemishes.
If I were really aboriginal, I would really believe them.
But I am also a player. If I find out that their identities are perfect, I will use my current inference.
Let’s not mention whether the six members of the team are players.
I am now certain that there is definitely something wrong with the four officials.
Their problems are no smaller than those of the six people in the team.
It is very likely that these two groups are all players, but the four members of the official team attacked first, hoping to use their own hands to eliminate the six members of the team.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng glanced past the silent six members of the team, the aggrieved Senior Brother Zhuo, and the three Mo family members who were thinking a lot, and finally looked at the equally nervous Cui Daoist Fellow ahead.
Chapter completed!
