Chapter 248
Outside the capital, in the dilapidated temple.
"Hahaha, it turns out it's Lord Lu. I was so scared that I thought there was a thief coming to the door. This... Xiaguan is indeed here late at night, but sir, you are the same. It's not difficult to ask Xiaguan to speak, but... Lord Lu, do you also need to explain why he appeared in this dilapidated temple late at night?"
After all, he was from the Gongwei Department, so although Jiang Haitian was already shocked by the appearance of the visitor, Lu Jiuchong, in his heart. He didn't understand why he, who was in Yangling, appeared here, but he calmed down in the shortest time.
While speaking, he was ready to distract the other party's attention, and immediately destroy the corpse and traces, together with the statue of the god beside him, he destroyed the letter that might have killed him.
But he is fast, Lu Jiuzhong is obviously faster!
What he could have thought of was that Lu Jiuchong had been prepared for a long time.
Therefore, as soon as Jiang Haitian made some moves, a long sword turned into a white rainbow and came out of Lu Jiuchong's hand.
In an instant, he came to Jiang Haitian's approaching, and then he did not give Jiang Haitian any chance to react, and it penetrated the shoulder of the hand he wanted to take.
After that, his strength did not diminish at all, and he and his hands were nailed to the wall behind the statue.
Seeing that Jiang Haitian was hung on the wall, blood came out along the wound and made his clothes red, Lu Jiuchong couldn't help but say apologetically: "Sorry, Lord Jiang. This... I just had some slippery hands, so...
But I can't blame me, right? Who made Lord Jiang's hand seem a little unhonest just now, and I am a little sensitive, so...
At the same time, as a colleague, I still want to advise Lord Jiang to pay attention to some things. Especially when facing warriors in the realm of heaven and man, it is best not to have any extra thoughts. Otherwise... the only thing that suffers is yourself!"
"What Lord Lu taught me is," he reluctantly pulled out the sword from his shoulder, and a cruelty flashed through Jiang Haitian's eyes. Then he stopped the bleeding and replied: "It's a humble profession."
"Mr. Jiang is serious, so be careful in the future," Lu Jiuzhong chuckled and continued: "By the way, Master Jiang seems to have not answered my previous question. It's so late, I wonder what is the matter of Lord Jiang coming to the ruined temple that has been idle for a long time?"
"...It's like this. The lower official received a secret report saying that when he saw that there would be rioters from Manichaeism, he wanted to come and check it out in person. Since he didn't know the truth or the false, he didn't report to the department..."
Seeing that the letter could not be destroyed, Jiang Haitian took a different approach and placed his position as the commander of the Guarding Department.
At that time, even if the letter is discovered, he will have something to say.
But can things be as easy as he wishes?
Obviously not!
Lu Jiuchong is here prepared this time.
As an enemy of life and death that is immortal, Lu Jiuchong took it enough attention after he saw Jiang Haitian arrive in Beijing.
Therefore, I asked Bai Li to arrange someone to stare at Jiang Haitian early in the morning. So what did Jiang Haitian do during this period? Who did you meet? He knows.
The meeting between Jiang Haitian and Manichaeism was also in it.
Knowing this, it is naturally not difficult to infer what Jiang Haitian wants to do.
Therefore, after the inferred relationship, Lu Jiuchong simply took the plan. While arranging people to pretend to be him and continue to move in the land of the Three Assistants as usual. While secretly visiting Chen Cang, he secretly returned to the capital under the excuse of clues from Manichaeism. He met the emperor, hoping to borrow a few people from the emperor.
Due to the previous incidents of the Three Auxiliary Places and the capital, the emperor obviously had already hated Manichaeism, one of the three major cults in the world. Therefore, after hearing about Lu Jiuchong's clues, he naturally would not be stingy and satisfied.
Especially after the emperor heard that among the clues obtained by Lu Jiuchong, there was news of the exchanges between the senior officials of the Gongwei Department and the Manichaeism. He even said that he wanted money and people to give it to people!
You must find out the person who is trampling inside and out!
Therefore, in the face of Jiang Haitian's defense, Lu Jiuchong did not criticize it at all, but continued to say calmly: "That's how hard it is, Lord Jiang. However, how did I see just now? Lord Jiang seemed to have something hidden behind the statue? Could it be that I was dazzled, right?
"Master Lu did read it wrong," Jiang Haitian replied: "The Xiaguan is looking for it to see if he can find something useful."
"That's how it is," Lu Jiuchong couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard this, and then said, "What has Lord Jiang found?"
"I just started looking for it, but I just started looking for it, so I didn't get anything," Jiang Haitian said without hesitation.
"I don't know Lord Jiang," Lu Jiuchong narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you mind...we are looking for it here too?"
"Please feel free, Lord Lu," Jiang Haitian retreated aside and said in a way that he asked for help.
"Since that's the case," Lu Jiuchongyan nodded slightly, and then said to an old man beside him: "It's all good that Eunuch Song."
I said before that in order to prevent the emperor from thinking that he was deliberately framed, after all, with Lu Jiuchong's popularity, many of his past things that no one cares about have been put in the spotlight.
Therefore, when Lu Jiuchong was hoping that Tianze would arrange personnel for him, he specially asked an old eunuch who had been with the emperor for many years and was deeply trusted by the emperor, and came to catch the thief and evil spirits with him.
After hearing Lu Jiuchong's name to the eunuch, Jiang Haitian also didn't need to change his expression. Obviously, he also thought of Lu Jiuchong's plan to do so.
However, at this time, even if he understood Lu Jiuchong’s plan, he would be unable to stop it.
After all, just like Lu Jiuchong said before, it is best to be honest when facing a warrior at the realm of heaven and man.
otherwise……
Lu Jiuchong may not have taken this opportunity to kill him directly in this ruined temple.
The thing itself was not particularly secret, so soon the letter was found by the eunuch and his people. Then Lu Jiuchong opened it together in front of the eunuch and read the contents.
Lu Jiu smiled.
"Sir Jiang, sorry, I'm afraid you will be wronged to go with us next." Lu Jiuchong put away his smile and said seriously.
"Where to go?" Jiang Haitian said with his eyes narrowed.
"Go to see Your Majesty," Lu Jiuzhong raised the letter in Yang's hand and said, "Leave this letter to His Holiness to take a look. See how the commander of the Daughter Office colluded with the Manichaeists and betrayed his colleagues."
"Mr. Lu, I seem to have said it before. I don't know what I believe," Jiang Haitian emphasized.
