Chu Sui stood with his hands behind his hands and asked expressionlessly: "What's the matter?"
He was not in a good mood at this time.
After the palace master arrived, Chu Sui noticed that his two apprentices were missing.
He knew his two apprentices well and knew that they were not ignorant of their importance. If something had not happened, it would have been impossible for the master of the palace to not show up even when he came.
Chu Sui stayed with the palace master for a while, and was about to go find Zhan Pingyuan and Dou Chengfang when Jian Jingang went to invite him.
Although Chu Sui was usually polite to Jian Yun, Jian Xi's confidant, in Chu Sui's heart, Jian Yun was always a servant and it was enough to invite him in person. Unexpectedly, Jian Yun just sent Jian Jingang.
Go call him, which makes Chu Sui feel even more unhappy. It's strange that he has a good look on Jian Yun.
Seeing Chu Sui's attitude towards Jian Yun, Jian Kuan and others became angry and hoped that Chu Sui could confront Jian Yun and protect them.
At this time, Jian Yun also changed his usual respect for Chu Sui.
He looked directly into Chu Sui's eyes and uttered two words coldly: "Confrontation!"
"Confrontation?" Chu Sui frowned, "Confrontation for what?"
Jian Yun pointed at Jian Kuan and others, and said in a deep voice: "They said they were from Du Yuhou, and they clamored that I had no right to deal with them. I would like to ask Du Yuhou, is this the case?"
Chu Sui glanced at Jian Kuan and others with an unkind look.
In order to have a more comprehensive grasp of the situation in Jujian City, he did deliberately recruit and cultivate informants in the city lord's palace. There were also many Du Yuhou who were sent from Renyin Palace to do this.
But this is all done behind closed doors and cannot be discussed on the table.
Even the master of the palace, Fang Pifu, cannot openly admit that he is monitoring the various city lords below.
Seeing Chu Sui's appearance, Jian Kuan secretly screamed something bad, and hurriedly clasped his fists and shouted: "Du Yuhou..."
Chu Sui interrupted sharply: "You bastard, why do you want to frame me?"
Jian Kuan's face changed greatly: "Du Yuhou, this is Young Master Zhan..."
"Shut up!"
Chu Sui shouted sharply, and then said to Jian Yun: "Old Yun, I have always fulfilled my duties in Jujian City for so many years, and I have never done anything I shouldn't have done behind the back of the city lord. It just so happened that the people who changed their minds were in a state of great change. You Qian
Don't be provoked by someone with bad intentions."
Jian Kuan's face turned ashen for an instant, and his eyes flashed rapidly.
Jian Yun cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Marquis Du Yu. The reason why I invited you here is also to let Marquis Du Yu explain these things in public, so as to avoid unnecessary criticism."
After saying that, his cold eyes pierced Jian Kuan: "What else do you have to say?"
Jian Kuan finally got scared and said in a trembling voice: "Steward, please listen to my explanation."
Jian Yun said sternly: "Take down all these things that are being eaten inside and outside!"
"yes!"
Jian Jingang responded and surrounded him with his guards.
At the critical moment, Jian Kuan's fear and insecurity turned into anger.
He pulled out the long sword from his waist and roared: "Brothers, fight with them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of light flew out from the main hall at the back, approaching Jian Kuan so fast that Jian Kuan had no time to dodge.
Jian Kuan's eyes narrowed and he swung his sword diagonally.
However, it was all in vain.
The stream of light flew directly past him, cutting off his right arm holding the sword.
The broken arm fell to the ground, and blood rained all over the sky.
The stream of light continued to move, and shot through the two men behind Jian Kuan, and then shot into the ground.
Only then did everyone see clearly that it was a standard long sword used by the city lord's guards.
No need to ask, Chu Sui also knew that the person who took action was Jian Xizhou.
Jian Kuan looked at the blood gushing from the severed arm and couldn't help but scream.
Jian Jingang stepped forward, knocked him to the ground with a scabbard, and shouted in a deep voice: "Take him away."
Two guards came forward and escorted him down.
Soon, all the guards and servants in the field who had been jumping up and down with Jian Cuilian were captured.
Chu Sui narrowed his eyes and turned to leave.
Not only that, a purge is also going on quietly where no one can see it.
Not only those who had been restless recently, but also those generals and even merchants who had secretly had close contacts with Jian Qingxuan's two uncles, were all eliminated by Jian Yun.
…
Chu Sui came to the place where Fang Pifu was resting. Fang Pifu put down the tea cup and said, "Where is Jian Qingxuan? Isn't she back? Ask her to come see me."
Chu Sui said: "I don't know where I've been hiding for two days. I'm so dirty that I don't look like one. I need to go back and clean up first. I can't rush you."
Fang Pifu asked again: "What's going on outside? It's noisy."
Chu Sui replied: "In the past two days, people in the city lord's mansion have been agitated. Many people are jumping up and down. Jian Yun is cleaning up."
Fang Pifu said coldly: "Do you have to choose this time?"
Chu Sui said: "He should be waiting for Jian Xizhou to come back."
Fang Pifu walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his back: "Jian Yun didn't show any edge in the past two days?"
Chu Sui nodded and said, "If I hadn't brought him over in time, he might have been tortured to death."
"It's a pity that such loyal servants don't belong to me."
Just as Fang Pifu sighed with emotion, Jian Xizhou walked in from outside.
Behind him was Jian Qingxuan.
The two men stepped forward and saluted: "Palace Master."
At this time, Jian Qingxuan had completely calmed down, and his eyes were more determined and cold than before.
Fang Pifu nodded and his eyes fell on the giant sword talisman held by Jian Qingxuan.
Then, he looked at Jian Xizhou and said in a deep voice: "Are you sure you want her to carry such a heavy burden?"
Jian Xizhou said: "In my opinion, no one in the Jian family is more suitable to take on this responsibility than her."
After saying that, Jian Xizhou added: "Of course I won't stand idly by. When she needs it, I will help her."
Just as he was talking, there was a commotion outside.
Jian Xizhou frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
He was also very unhappy, and when he heard the noise outside, he immediately became angry.
Jian Yun came in from outside and said respectfully: "The second young master's child is here."
Outside, a young man's voice came: "Second Grandpa...I am Jian Qinghui, Second Grandpa..."
It seems that he is in the stage of changing his voice, and his voice is somewhat funny.
Jian Xizhou raised his eyebrows and walked out.
Outside, stood a young man and woman, Jian Cuilian's children, Jian Qinghui and Jian Qingxu.
Jian Xizhou stood outside the door and said in a deep voice: "The master of the palace is inside, why are you making such noise?"
Jian Qinghui knelt on the ground with a pop: "Let's ask Grandpa Second to make the decision."
Jian Xizhou asked: "Who is the master?"
Jian Qingxu also knelt on the ground and sobbed: "My mother is missing. We can't find her anywhere. We don't know if she was killed."
