Chapter 173 The destruction of Ji Mansion! (Additional chapter)
Leng Siyuan threw away the blood-stained night clothes and put on normal clothes.
His face is very pale.
Although he got rid of Chu Jiuzheng, the sword idiot, he was also injured.
Fortunately, he was wearing golden silk cicada armor, and at that time, he didn't know who caused a big fuss in the Ji Mansion and lured Chu Jiuzheng there. Otherwise, whether he could escape safely or not is another matter.
"A master is a master, and you can't afford to offend him."
Leng Siyuan sighed secretly, thinking that his future brother-in-law was still hiding in Ji Mansion, so he hurriedly went to Ji Mansion with a few of his arranged cronies.
When we arrived at the courtyard gate, Shangguan Guan happened to show up with someone.
"Lord General."
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Guan quickly bowed his hands and saluted, and said with a solemn expression, "Beizhi just saw an eagle flying over the Ji Mansion and dropped a lot of things. I'm afraid it's Hongyu! Beizhi is about to go in to check."
Li Nanke's guess was correct.
Leng Siyuan secretly praised him, glanced at the people around Shangguanguan, and asked deliberately: "Where is Li Nanke?"
Shangguan Guan said helplessly: "After leaving the attic earlier, Li Nanke took the initiative to patrol with Bei Zhi separately. Bei Zhi looked for him just now, but could not find him."
"Ignore this brat, leave him alone."
Leng Siyuan cursed in a low voice and said calmly, "Go directly to Ji Mansion to search. Anyone who resists and does not cooperate will be killed!"
"yes!"
Shangguan Guan looked stern and lowered his head in response.
At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the bulging abdomens of several of the confidants behind him led by Leng Siyuan, as if they were hiding something.
Looking at the murderous aura floating in Leng Siyuan's eyes, Shangguan Guan suddenly understood something and his expression changed.
Leng Siyuan is planning to frame him!
In other words, no matter whether anything can be found in the search, Ji Mansion must destroy it today!
"Sir, is there something going on in the underworld?"
Shangguan Guan asked tentatively.
It is not difficult to destroy the Ji family, there are many ways.
But the reason why these great patrols did not touch the Ji family was that, in addition to some interests in the capital, the most important thing was the "underworld" clues.
As long as the clues are obtained, the Ji Mansion loses its value and can be destroyed.
But if not, then you can't act rashly.
As the supervisor of the Qinglong Department, Shangguan Guan has direct contact with the capital and also has the role of supervising Leng Siyuan.
He did not receive an order from above, indicating that Leng Siyuan made his own decision.
After hearing Shangguanguan's inquiry, Leng Siyuan, who was about to enter the Jifu compound, stopped, with a meaningful smile on his lips.
He turned around and patted Shangguan Guan on the shoulder, and said faintly: "When I get down, the position of the Chief Secretary will be yours. You should be happy."
Shangguanguan broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and wanted to say something, but Leng Siyuan raised his hand to stop him.
"You can wait here."
The subtext is, if you are afraid of getting into trouble, just get out of here. If anything happens, I, Leng Siyuan, will be responsible for it alone.
After saying that, Leng Siyuan turned around and entered the door.
The guards at the door didn't dare to stop him.
Shangguan Guan gave a wry smile, thought for a moment and then followed him bravely.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Jifu compound was solemn.
There were too many things that happened today, which made everyone in the house nervous, and the maids didn't even dare to breathe.
Ji Xiuwan, who had one of her arms chopped off by Li Nanke, endured the severe pain and bandaged the wound.
Fortunately, Chu Jiuzheng's spiritual power protected him from fainting.
After disposing of the bodies of the dead guards in the mansion, and hearing that the night patrol department came to search, Ji Xiuwan, who had already expected this situation, dragged her injured body to greet them personally.
"Director Leng looks good today. It seems that the harvest at home is quite good."
Although anger had filled the woman's heart, she still showed a relaxed expression and said to Leng Siyuan with a smile.
The moment he saw Ji Xiuwan, Leng Siyuan himself was shocked.
Why is the other party missing an arm for no reason?
Could it be Lao Jiang?
Thinking of the sounds of fighting in the inner courtyard, Leng Siyuan felt sad and understood that Lao Jiang must have died.
Shangguan Guan smiled and said: "Miss Ji, we just saw some birds throwing goods into your yard. Can you let us check what kind of goods it is that need to be used this way."
"Oh, so that's what happened. I thought you were here to apologize to me."
Ji Xiuwan raised her voice and sarcastically said.
"Apologise?" Shangguan Guan frowned.
Ji Xiuwan raised her white chin slightly, gritted her teeth and stared at Leng Siyuan bitterly and said coldly:
"Not long ago, a guy named Jiang from your night patrol department had some unknown illness and turned into a monster and attacked our Ji family, almost killing my father. Your night patrol department is really good.
But it doesn’t matter, I will report this matter to the capital. No matter how big the Night Patrol Department is, it must follow the king’s rules.”
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Guan turned to look at Leng Siyuan.
Seeing the latter's cold expression, Shangguan Guan said solemnly:
"Miss Ji, if there is such a thing, our night patrol department will definitely investigate it strictly. But now, we want to know what the goods just delivered are?"
The topic was changed, Ji Xiuwan sneered, and Nunu said: "Isn't it in front of you? It's just some medicinal materials."
"Medicine?"
"If you don't believe it, just open it and take a look."
Ji Xiuwan looked provocatively.
Shangguan Guan looked at Leng Siyuan again, waiting for his order.
"Search the whole yard!"
Leng Siyuan had already learned from Li Nanke that these boxes were indeed filled with medicinal materials, so he didn't bother to look at them. He winked at the few cronies he brought and ordered.
"Yes, sir!"
Several close relatives became convinced and prepared to spread out to search the courtyard and frame him on the way.
"Wait!"
Ji Xiuwan suddenly scolded and stopped her.
The woman stared at Leng Siyuan pitifully and said mockingly: "Don't think that I don't know what Director Leng is planning. Without a special order from the government, what qualifications does your Night Patrol Department have to conduct a search?"
By letting you in, I've already given you face! Leng Siyuan, don't you really think you can cover the sky in Yuncheng with just one hand?"
"Search!"
Leng Siyuan was too lazy to talk nonsense and gave the order directly.
Swish, swish, swish!
The guards in the courtyard all showed their weapons.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Leng Siyuan laughed angrily, "Okay, as expected of Xuanyuan Hui, a gangster force dares to use a knife on the court department. Then I, Leng Siyuan, will see today whether you have the guts to do so.
Bloody!"
"Presumptuous! What are you doing?"
Just when the two sides were at war with each other, a cold shout suddenly came.
But he saw a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe and official boots walking quickly, surrounded by several government guards.
The person who came was none other than Yuan Changxu, the prefect of Yuncheng.
On the side, there were also several guards protecting a big shot.
It’s the eldest princess Bai Ruyue!
At this time, Bai Ruyue was still wearing that luxurious long dress, the skirt was decorated with sparkling patterns, and the breeze blew, making it particularly gorgeous.
She moved forward and looked at the two sides confronting each other with great interest.
There was a faint smile on her charming cheeks.
The delicate hands lifted gently are like holding orchids.
Leng Siyuan's face suddenly darkened when he saw Yuan Changxu suddenly appeared. But when he saw Bai Ruyue clearly, his expression suddenly changed and he knelt on the ground, "Greetings to the eldest princess!"
Others knelt down and saluted.
No one expected that the eldest princess would suddenly appear here.
Including Ji Xiuwan.
Because she secretly only invited Yuan Changxu, the prefect of Yuncheng.
Although the prefect of Yuncheng is nothing compared to the chief of the Night Patrol Department, Lord Yuan's father-in-law is actually the governor of Longjiang.
Behind it, there are countless official connections.
So Ji Xiuwan arranged a backup plan.
Once Leng Siyuan loses his face and wants to frame him, he will find another high-ranking official in Yuncheng and supervise him personally.
But the appearance of the eldest princess surprised her again.
But no matter what, the odds of winning were already with her. Thinking of this, Ji Xiuwan showed a proud look on her face and stared at Leng Siyuan.
If you want to frame her up, then do it in front of the eldest princess. Do you dare?
“It’s quite lively.”
Bai Ruyue smiled like a deep pool in the clear lake, and her voice was plain, but it was dyed with a bit of charming magnetism.
"What are you doing? Rebellion?"
Yuan Changxu first shouted angrily at the Xuanyuan Hui guards who showed off their weapons, and then asked Ji Xiuwan coldly, "Ji Xiuwan, what are you going to do!?"
Ji Xiuwanfu said, "Master Yuan, Your Royal Highness the Princess, Minnu didn't want to do anything, but the chief minister suddenly brought people in and wanted to search Minnu's yard. Is this the order of Master Yuan?
?”
Yuan Changxu's eyes flickered slightly.
He turned around and asked with a smile: "Lord General, why is this?"
Leng Siyuan did not answer.
Instead, he was thinking about the reason for Bai Ruyue's sudden appearance.
Judging from the current situation, Bai Ruyue was not invited by Ji Xiuwan.
It was probably on the road that I happened to meet Yuan Changxu.
But what is the purpose of Bai Ruyue coming here?
Thinking of the officials with interests involved behind the Ji family, Leng Siyuan gradually figured out the key.
Now that the emperor is young, the Empress Dowager lives in seclusion in Wuji Hall.
The power is controlled by the queen.
As the eldest princess, Bai Ruyue is in the same camp as Queen Lin Weiyang.
The situation in the court is complicated. There are the Old Forest Party, the New Forest Party, the New Emperor's faction, etc. Each camp has its own little calculation.
Poaching each other's corners is also a common thing.
Apparently Bai Ruyue thought that Ji Mansion might be in ruins, so she came to pick peaches.
As long as we keep those officials who have interests entangled with the Ji family, there will be officials in the court who will take the initiative to seek refuge.
There are interests in the Jianghu, and there are interests in the court.
These interests are all intertwined.
"Bitch." Leng Siyuan cursed in his heart, couldn't he come back to pick peaches later?
But even if Bai Ruyue didn't, with Yuan Changxu, he wouldn't be able to frame her.
When Shangguan Guan saw Yuan Changxu and the eldest princess appear, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to explain: "Sir Yuan, we thought there would be a Hongyu transaction in Xuanyuan, so we came to search."
"Have you seen it with your own eyes?" the eldest princess asked.
"That's not true." Shangguan Guan shook his head, "But just now we saw a few birds flying over the Ji Mansion and dropping a few boxes. There is no need to use this method for ordinary goods."
Yuan Changxu frowned, turned to Ji Xiuwan and said, "Miss Ji, can you take out the goods just now?"
"It's just some medicinal materials. They are in front of you now. You can check them yourself."
Ji Xiuwan stared at Leng Siyuan with cold eyes and said calmly, "In addition, since the eldest princess has arrived, the daughter of the people is willing to cooperate with the chief general to search my yard."
Ji Xiuwan's backhand move is very powerful.
Yuan Changxu's official position is not large, but he represents those high-ranking officials who are related to the interests of the Hebei government.
Plus the eldest princess is present.
With these two people here, it is impossible for Leng Siyuan to frame him.
Moreover, the woman is confident enough that the other party cannot search her out.
Yuan Changxu glanced at the boxes that were clearly displayed, and said to Leng Siyuan: "Master General Secretary, since Miss Ji is willing to let you check, then you can check them."
"No need."
Leng Siyuan knew that it was impossible to destroy the Ji family today, so he could only think of another plan.
After bowing to the eldest princess, he was about to leave.
But Ji Xiuwan, who was so angry, would not let go of such a good opportunity to ridicule the other party.
"Director Leng, since we are all here, you should check it out. In order to avoid misunderstanding by the eldest princess and Master Yuan, they think that you have accepted the benefits of our Ji family. Are you right?"
Ji Xiuwan's smile was indescribably provocative and gloomy.
He Jia died, his father was almost killed, the deal went through twists and turns, and she also broke an arm.
Now I have to face other people’s difficulties with a smile.
No matter how rational Ji Xiuwan is, she can't hide her raging anger at this moment.
She just wanted to humiliate Leng Siyuan in front of so many people!
You must watch it today, you won’t be able to watch it if you don’t want to watch it!
"Director Leng, why don't you check it out."
The eldest princess’s smile was as bright as the spring breeze.
She finally understood the situation in front of her and was a little disappointed. She simply said to Leng Siyuan with the attitude of watching a show.
"No."
It was estimated that Li Nanke should have taken advantage of the chaos and left secretly, and Leng Siyuan was too lazy to make trouble for himself here.
"No, if you don't watch it today, won't my innocence of the law-abiding Ji family have to be questioned?"
Seeing Leng Siyuan's disgraced look, Ji Xiuwan felt indescribably happy in her heart and said to the guard, "Open the box! Let Mr. General Secretary see if we are selling red rain!"
The guards were ordered to open all the boxes.
However, the next second, everyone present was stunned.
Everyone looked weird.
Even the eldest princess was confused and didn't understand what was going on.
"Master General Secretary, do you see clearly?" Ji Xiuwan asked with a sneer.
But realizing that everyone's expressions were not right, she subconsciously turned her head to look, and the smile on her face froze.
