Having said that, how will this matter end? Does Shangzhezi say everything is safe?
Now the whole city has heard about it. This kind of coercion and inducement is not impossible, but if something slips through the net, the matter will be even bigger.
The city guard was having a headache when a portrait was sent over.
Zhao Xingwu saw that no one was coming, "Hey, why didn't you come?"
"I don't know." The person who sent the picture really didn't know.
Zhao Mingjie understood, however, that they were trying to separate themselves from each other when disaster struck.
Looking at the city guard, "If you make another trip, tell the city guard that I am waiting for them to discuss matters."
"Yes." The servant continued to run errands.
Zhao Mingjie also ordered people to prepare two banquets to entertain the city guard and others.
It's noon, just in time to have a light meal.
The city guard did not refuse. He asked for paper and pen, took the portraits, copied three more, and asked people to immediately send them to the three surrounding cities using carrier pigeons.
Just say that he is a thief who kills people and sells goods. The matter is very important, so let them work together to arrest him.
Zhao Mingjie praised the city guard for his excellent painting skills. As he was talking, Mu Hao, the leader of Tongcheng Hall of Green Sand Club, and Xiang Xiuli, the leader of Tongcheng Hall of Feixiang Gang, came over with their juniors.
It's just that Liu Rong didn't come over. She didn't want to stir up trouble and involve the Liu family. And she was a direct disciple of Tianyuan Academy, so she wasn't afraid to antagonize these people.
But when Li Zhen and Li Youan came, he really couldn't lose face, so he came thinking that Tianyuan Academy was not afraid of this.
But Xiao Yue, Guan Liang and He Xia didn't want to come, but they were alone and they didn't dare not come, so they had no choice but to go there.
The three of them now regretted that they really shouldn't have gone out to play with them.
They had a good relationship at first, but when things got serious, no one said a word for them.
…
Zhao Mingjie also asked people to invite Chen Henian of the Feihe Escort Bureau, and in the name of the city guard, he invited Bao Shun, the chief secret agent of Tongcheng.
Chen Henian came, but Bao Shun did not come, but asked Chen Henian to bring a message.
"Now that the matter has come to this, Brother Bao will suppress the matter and not report it.
"The rest is for us to spend money and effort to shut up Tongcheng."
"Officially, I asked the city guard to work harder and write a few notes and hand them to everyone to explain that someone was involved in the scandal."
"Whether you believe it or not, you must try hard."
The city guard nodded, "Okay, I have notified the surrounding areas to work together to capture this animal."
Chen Henian handed over his hand, "Master Zhao, Xiang Hall Master, please issue the highest-level order to the Qingyun Sect and the Feixiang Gang headquarters to send all their personnel to capture this person alive within two days."
"ah?"
"this……"
Zhao Mingjie and Xiang Xiuli looked at each other, obviously unwilling.
"This is not what I said, but what Brother Bao meant," Chen Henian said, "There is also the Green Sand Society, and they also asked Hall Master Mu to go to Ziqi Tower to place an order. No matter how much the money is, Ziqi Tower must help intercept this person.
.”
Mu Hao held up his hands and said, "Well, Mu is just the hall master."
"Brother Bao said that a disaster is approaching now. If he can't pass this test, we can all die together."
"His original words were, after I die, I won't care if his blood flows all over the river and his heads pile up in mountains!"
Everyone shuddered, and Li Zhen and Li Youan began to feel that it was a mistake for him to get involved.
Even Tianyuan Academy may not be able to protect him at this time, and may not protect him at all.
Mu Hao swallowed dryly and cupped his hands and said, "Okay, I'll go and inform the president to transfer the money."
Chen Henian handed over his hand and said, "No matter what, first stabilize the Ziqi Tower and don't let him spread the news."
"I understand, let's take the first step." Mu Haohuan handed over his hands and hurried away.
"Then I'll go and pass the message." Xiang Xiuli took his nephew to Xiang Youde.
Xiao Yue, Guan Liang and He Xia looked at each other, knowing that now they could only stay.
It can be said that in an instant, I gained a deep understanding of the world.
Once you enter the arena, you can’t help yourself!
…
The Tongcheng government, Qingyun Sect, Feixiang Gang, and Green Sand Society joined forces to suppress most of the people in Tongcheng.
The Jianghu sect is more or less interested in the Qingyun Sect, while the Feixiang Gang can suppress Jianghu gangs and ordinary people, and Green Sand will contact businessmen.
All the people who were dissatisfied could only go to the government, but the government didn't care. Everyone had nowhere to complain and had no choice but to swallow their grievances.
The Jianghu people who are unconvinced can't cause any trouble for the time being, so let them talk about it. But if they want to resist, they will be beaten until they are convinced.
I don't have the ability to fly out like a goatee, so I just keep it coiled up.
There's just one force in Tongcheng that they can't handle, and that's the Purple Qi Tower.
Lvshahui went to visit Mu Hao and asked Ziqilou for help.
When Zi Qi Lou asked for a price, Mu Hao turned pale with fright, and then turned red with anger.
"Fifty million taels, you might as well go and grab it!"
The shopkeeper said slowly and calmly, "I'm just robbing you Qingyun Sect, Feixiang Gang, Green Sand Club and the local officials. There is no better deal than this right now."
"Once the news leaks out, no matter how you cover it up, people from the imperial court will definitely investigate and secretly investigate."
"Needless to say, the result is that just by looking at the money in the official's house, you can tell there is something wrong."
"Whether it's the escort alliance of the Qingyun Sect, the foot power of the Feixiang Gang, or the mineral resources of your Green Sand Association."
"It is really unfair to bully and dominate the market and monopolize transportation."
"The small households in the southeast area cannot reach the mines, but they have many complaints about the Qingyun Sect and the Feixiang Gang."
"If you just check it, you can definitely get a lot of information."
"Comparing the information from previous spies, we will definitely see that the spies have reservations about Jianghu sect."
"This is a big taboo. It makes the emperor feel uneasy than the secret agents and local officials being on the same page."
"Because the spies were supposed to monitor the Jianghu, but now they are colluding with the Jianghu people."
"If the imperial court doesn't find out everything, the emperor will definitely not be able to sleep well."
"There is no way to investigate this. The only thing we can do is to send a large army over to control the situation. We will kill you first and then pry open your mouths."
"What will you do when the time comes? Will you follow the Qingyi Cult?"
"I'm not looking down on you, but you really can't learn the Tsing Yi religion."
"Zhou Wuming is an ambitious tiger and wolf, and you are just local dogs in the den. You are just a man with many people and strong financial resources."
"You can fight in a bad street fight, but you really can't if I ask you to wallow in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood."
"Actually, if you don't come to us, we will come to you."
"This is a God-given opportunity for us. If we don't give you a hard blow, how can we make you understand what the dangers of the world are?"
"The river and lake gangs send money to the imperial court. This is a sign of keeping their own rules, but it does not collude with the imperial court to bully the market, nor does it monopolize the supply of goods."
"That's what businessmen do, and businessmen are wary of people in the world and don't dare to go too far."
"It's better for you to eat both top and bottom."
"Originally, this is none of our business and we won't care."
"But at this moment, if you cause trouble, we will naturally add insult to injury. Anyway, this is just a matter of letting go of pigeons for us."
"You don't have to work hard, you can easily get the money you have accumulated over the years. Is there any better deal than this? There is no more, so just spend money to eliminate disasters honestly."
"If I'm to blame, it's because you are so lawless that you make things that should be kept secret become known to everyone."
Mu Hao tried to calm down, "What you Ziqi Tower did is tantamount to offending our three families and the government. Aren't you afraid of our conquest?"
