Not to mention Xin Wudao, even Tian Shao did not expect Jiang Chen to be so decisive. After all, Xin Wudao represents Yang Zhao's wishes here.
Yang Zhao, on the other hand, is the deputy general manager of the Dragon Tooth Guard and is considered a powerful figure in the royal capital.
However, Jiang Chen killed him as soon as he was told, without leaving any room for action.
For a time, tens of thousands of Dragon Tooth Guards and tens of thousands of pairs of eyes were all staring at Lu Wuji's headless body. Each one of them seemed to be petrified, and they were speechless for a long time.
boom
It wasn't until Lu Wuji's head fell into the dust from the air that Xin Wudao realized what he was doing. Looking at Lu Wuji's dead expression, Xin Wudao's scalp felt numb.
For a moment, it felt like the sky was about to fall.
Xin Wudao knew very well what status Lu Wuji held in the heart of Deputy General Manager Yang Zhao.
Lu Wuji's death was like robbing Deputy General Yang Zhao's heart. Xin Wudao almost didn't need to think about how angry Deputy General Yang Zhao would be.
"Jiang Chen, you... how dare you kill Lu Wuji?" Xin Wudao pointed at Jiang Chen, his voice was trembling, and his arms couldn't help shaking.
Jiang Chen had no expression on his face: "Xin Wudao, go back and tell Yang Zhao that killing Lu Wuji is just the beginning. You tell him that if he doesn't commit suicide, he won't die. He, Yang Zhao, commits suicide himself, and this matter is not over yet."
"
Xin Wudao's whole body was shocked. Hearing what Jiang Chen meant, isn't it enough to kill Lu Wuji? He also wanted to point the knife at Deputy General Manager Yang Zhao?
Xin Wudao laughed miserably: "Okay, good Jiang Chen, I don't know where you got the confidence. I'm just telling you, if you die, kill Lu Wuji. No one in the entire Tiangui Kingdom can save you."
Tian Shao frowned and said: "Xin Wudao, I'm warning you again, I am enforcing the law under orders. If you interfere with my law enforcement again, I will go to the chief manager and file a complaint against you."
Xin Wudao yelled: "Tian Shao, don't pretend to force Lu Wuji to die in front of me. You are also responsible. You are so complacent now. When Manager Yang's overwhelming anger subsides, I will see how crazy you are then."
Xin Wudao knew very well that in today's situation, his momentum had been lost. Besides, Lu Wuji was beheaded, so Xin Wudao couldn't do anything if he stayed.
He threatened Xin Wudao a few times, glared at Jiang Chen a few times, and led the team away angrily.
When Tian Shao saw Xin Wudao leaving, he walked towards Jiang Chen and whispered: "Young Master Chen, if Lu Wuji dies, Deputy Manager Yang will be furious. You have to be mentally prepared. It's best to leave Jiang Mansion and hide for a while."
Jiang Chen smiled faintly: "Avoid? Why avoid? Brother Tian, if you act according to the plan, Lu Wuji colludes with the outsiders, and Yang Zhao cannot escape from it. If this can't punish Yang Zhao, then I can only say, God
Gui Kingdom is so disappointing."
Tian Shao was speechless. He also knew that if this matter was based on common sense, all the evidence would be complete. Lu Wuji was Yang Zhao's nephew, so he must have had Yang Zhao's instructions, and the prince had mediated through it to overthrow Yang Zhao.
It should be feasible.
But Tian Shao also heard some rumors, saying that the reason why Yang Zhao was so powerful was not only because he was the deputy general manager of Longya Guard, but also because he had a big backer in Baoshu Sect.
Otherwise, if he is the deputy general manager of the Dragon Tooth Guard, and there is also the general manager above him, as well as His Majesty the King, and many other princes and ministers, how can he, Yang Zhao, be allowed to act so rampantly?
"Young Master Chen, the Crown Prince will do his best. As of now, there is no possibility of retreat. However, Deputy General Manager Yang always does not follow conventional routines, so you must beware of his back-up tactics."
Jiang Chen also knew that Tian Shao meant well, so he smiled lightly and asked: "Where are those killers who are chasing after the secret door?
Tian Shao smiled and said: "According to Master Chen's instructions, we arrested the others and let one go."
Jiang Chen nodded: "Very good. Brother Tian, thank you for your hard work this time."
He also knew that Tian Shao took a lot of risks by doing this. Offending Yang Zhao was inevitable. From Tian Shao's point of view, if he could not overthrow Yang Zhao this time, he would definitely be punished by Yang Zhao in the future.
All kinds of repression and retaliation.
Of course, Jiang Chen would never let this happen.
After eradicating the root cause, Jiang Chen would definitely not let Yang Zhao go unpunished this time, let alone give Yang Zhao a chance to bite him back.
If the royal family of Tiangui Kingdom cannot punish Yang Zhao, Jiang Chen would never mind doing it himself.
The death of Lu Wuji and the arrest of the secret door killer immediately caused huge waves in the capital.
For a time, all parties who were enemies of Yang Zhao seized this opportunity and wrote to impeach Yang Zhao one after another, demanding that His Majesty the King punish Yang Zhao.
The reason is very good: colluding with foreign thieves, disrupting the royal capital, and endangering the security of Tiangui Kingdom.
People who were close friends with Yang Zhao defended Yang Zhao one after another, claiming that Lu Wuji was killed and there was no evidence of his death. It was impossible to determine whether this matter had anything to do with Yang Zhao.
For a time, the memorials were stacked three feet thick in front of His Majesty's case.
The monarch has a headache. Judging from various evidences, it is obvious that Yang Zhao colluded with the secret door to pursue his life. However, evidence is evidence. If Yang Zhao is really convicted, it will affect the whole body.
.
Even His Majesty the King must think twice before acting.
"Shangguan, please tell me, how should I handle Yang Zhao's matter?"
His Majesty the King also summoned Shangguan Yi, the general manager of the Dragon Tooth Guard, overnight. This Yang Zhao was from the Long Tooth Guard. No matter whether Yang Zhao was moved or not, he had to ask Shangguan Yi about his attitude.
Shangguan Yi was also very worried. To be honest, he was not happy with Yang Zhao's collusion with foreign enemies. From the bottom of his heart, he never doubted the authenticity of the evidence.
But this matter involved Jiang Chen, Shangguan Yi was still a little unhappy.
An outsider stirred up troubles in the Tiangui Kingdom, causing unrest within his Dragon Tooth Guard. Deep in Shangguan Yi's heart, he still felt that Yang Zhao's tactic was understandable. It was Jiang Chen who
Forced by the party with Prince Ye Rong.
Of course, it was impossible for Shangguan Yi to say these words.
Although he is emotionally biased towards his subordinate Yang Zhao, this does not mean that he will unequivocally support Yang Zhao.
After all, from the standpoint of his general manager, one point of view and one attitude involve a lot.
If nothing else, if he stood up to support Yang Zhao, it would be equivalent to standing clearly opposite to Prince Ye Rong.
Prince Ye Rong is, after all, the biological son of His Majesty the King, the crown prince, and the future controller of the Tiangui Kingdom.
Shangguan Yi now cannot completely ignore Ye Rong's existence.
Sighing softly: "Your Majesty, this matter is really difficult to handle. Your Majesty's opinion is that big things should be reduced to trivial matters. If Lu Wuji is dead, then this matter will end with Lu Wuji. Deputy General Manager Yang
Even if there is a fault of lax discipline, it is just a fault. From a legal point of view..."
When Shangguan Yi mentioned the key point, he paused and looked at His Majesty's face.
The monarch nodded lightly: "You continue."
Shangguan Yi took a deep breath: "Yang Zhao has a lot of connections in the royal capital. If you really want to touch him, I'm afraid it will affect the overall situation. And the senior people know that Yang Zhao has a sister who is married to an elder in Baoshu Sect.
.In Baoshu Sect, he can be regarded as a person with great support. If Yang Zhao really wants to be moved, Baoshu Sect may not be easy to explain.
The monarch sighed softly: "So, this Yang Zhao cannot be moved?"
Shangguan Yi hurriedly bowed his head and said: "I only have some superficial opinions. How to make a decision requires your Majesty's decision. As long as Your Majesty makes your decision, no matter what happens, I will strictly implement it."
The monarch is very satisfied with Shangguan Yi's attitude. No matter what happens to Yang Zhao, you Shangguan Yi are my people and you must listen to me.
"Shangguan, according to my understanding, Yang Zhao's reputation in Longya Guard is not very good. Have you given him too much power? This time, even if you don't move him, you should take back his power appropriately.
Already."
Shangguan Yi felt a slight movement in his heart. Yang Zhao had too much power as the second deputy general manager of Longya Guard. Zhou Gui, the number one deputy general manager, had always been worried about this.
If we can take this opportunity to reduce some of Yang Zhao's power, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
He nodded immediately and said: "Yang Zhao controls some appointment and dismissal powers, and he often has the disadvantage of not knowing people well. I decided to take back some of his powers and let him reflect behind closed doors."
"Well, this Yang Zhao has the support of the elders of Baoshu Sect, so he can't move. But if he reduces his authority a little, it can be regarded as an explanation to the elders of Baoshu Sect."
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise."
After Shangguan Yi left, His Majesty the King rubbed his forehead and looked at the large number of memorials without even looking at them.
These memorials are either to speak favorably for Yang Zhao or to impeach Yang Zhao. Since we all have opinions on Yang Zhao's handling, there is no need to read these memorials.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Ye and Mr. Ye have come to see you." Not long after Shangguan Yi left, a chamberlain came to report that Ye Chonglou was visiting.
"What? Why is this old man here? Please come, please come quickly."
Ye Chonglou is a totem-level existence in the Tiangui Kingdom. Even the current king must observe the etiquette of a junior in front of him.
Ye Zhonglou, whose beard and hair were all white, strode into the palace with meteoric strides, followed behind him was a graceful woman in a green shirt, who was Concubine Dan.
"Old man, you haven't entered the palace for a long time. I am really surprised and flattered." His Majesty, half-jokingly, invited the old man to take a seat.
"Your Majesty, I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. I just want to ask, what are your Majesty's plans regarding Yang Zhao?" Mr. Ye got straight to the point.
"Oh? The old man never cares about worldly matters. Could it be that he is also concerned about this matter?"
Ye Chonglou smiled faintly: "I really want to hear your Majesty's plan."
The monarch chuckled and said in a humble tone: "If the old man has any advice, I will listen attentively."
"Your Majesty, I have not been involved in political affairs for a long time. I am here today as an exception. I do have a piece of advice for Your Majesty."
"Oh?" The monarch raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Please give me some advice."
"In extraordinary times, Your Majesty should have the courage of a strong man to cut off his wrist. Now that the crown prince has been established, those untimely forces are destined to become obstacles to the crown prince's ascension to the throne. They must be eradicated when they should be eradicated. If the prince's status is unstable, the situation in the kingdom will be unstable; the kingdom's situation will be unstable;
If the situation is unstable, the foundation of the country will be unstable."
Although Ye Chonglou did not name anyone in his words, his attitude was clear, that is, he supported His Majesty the King in eradicating Yang Zhao's influence.
This kind of statement made the king slightly surprised.
Logically speaking, the old man has never been involved in political affairs. Why would he suddenly come here and give him such an opinion?
Moreover, this opinion is completely opposite to what he, the king, thinks.
For a moment, His Majesty the King froze, not knowing how to speak.
