The atmosphere in Beijing today is a bit strange. Instead of being relaxed after the rain and the sky clearing up, it is instead a kind of depression that is about to come.
Chen's murder case finally came to a conclusion. Jin Yiwei captured Bai Jingnian, one of the Seven Sons of Wudang Taoist priest Ziyang, and confirmed that this shocking assassination was the work of the Wudang Clan.
The Chen family in Yunzhong seemed to have accepted this conclusion. It was said that the prisoner died suddenly shortly after being taken to the Chen family. This fact really made many people in the court feel dissatisfied.
After all, no matter how powerful the Chen family is, criminal law matters are ultimately the work of the imperial court. Their overreaching will inevitably give people the feeling that they are above the imperial court's laws, which really makes many ministers very unhappy.
At first, those ministers who felt that Jin Yiwei's reaction was too much now began to feel that Jin Yiwei was too tolerant of the aristocratic family. However, what Chen, whose own family knew about their family affairs, would think, was another matter.
But no matter what, the case is finally settled and the criminal has been brought to justice. The next thing to discuss is whether the Wudang Clan should be held jointly and severally responsible.
Normally, the Jinyiwei are very active in taking action against Jianghu forces, but this time they seemed to lack interest. Many people speculated that this was because they were dissatisfied with the Chen family.
In fact, the Chen family is also very dissatisfied. The ordinary Chen family members feel that Jinyiwei is deliberately targeting them and ignoring the law, while the upper-level Chen Nuo, Chen Heguang and others know very well that the Wudang sect has nothing to do with the murderer.
But they have already suffered from this dumb mistake, and now they can only prepare to put pressure on the Wudang Clan publicly, and then use their own strength to investigate in private.
And when the news from Beijing reached Wudang step by step, the entire Wudang sect became angry.
Ziyang Dao Changbai died many years ago, and his death was extremely sad. Not only was the murderer not found, but his body was also hastily buried in the wilderness.
Moreover, the Wudang Clan had already informed Jianghu about Bai Jingnian’s death. It was impossible for Jin Yiwei not to know about this matter, but even on the premise of knowing, they actually hired such a so-called prisoner to speak out. This is really bullying.
People.
This is not called using corpses to pretend to be prisoners, but openly robbing graves and killing corpses. It is barely possible to call it a trap. It simply does not take the Wudang Clan seriously.
But when the news reached the world, it changed its appearance. Taoist Master Ziyang was indeed dead. The news of his death caused a sensation in the world. However, although the person died, where he died and how he died were all mysteries.
So under the guidance of caring people, the news that spread to the world changed. In their story, Taoist Priest Ziyang, a man who had been dead for a long time, came back to life.
Not only did he survive, but he endured the humiliation and infiltrated the capital. The Jinyiwei's suppression of Jianghu became more and more cruel. Bai Jingnian, who cared about the world, wanted to weaken them by borrowing knives to kill people.
Therefore, Taoist Priest Ziyang, who had been lurking for many years, finally found an opportunity. By assassinating the head of a wealthy family, he diverted trouble to the Jin Yiwei and made them bite dogs, thereby giving various factions a chance to breathe.
Chivalrous people are all subjective. Although Taoist Master Ziyang killed innocent people, he did it for the sake of the world. This is sacrificing small righteousness for great righteousness. This is a great chivalrous sentiment.
Thanks to the subjectivity of this group of people, the reputation of the Chen family was also dragged down. After all, it was inappropriate to say that Taoist Ziyang killed innocent people indiscriminately. Therefore, in the eyes of the knights and knights, the Chen family in the clouds became
He is as hateful and hateful as Jin Yiwei, a bully who preys on the common people all the time.
Therefore, although Taoist Priest Ziyang of the Wudang Sect failed this time, his deeds really moved the knights in the world. Suddenly, many righteous people appeared in the north and south of the country, and they were about to go to the capital to snatch the heroes back.
Bai Jingnian's corpse, seeking justice for him.
Then the Jin Yiwei sent out by Lu Hanjiang were happy. The rebels who had sprung up like mushrooms in the rivers and lakes had not had time to form a large scale, and were quickly wiped out by the sudden surge in the power of Jin Yiwei from various places.
This time, Jianghu's counterattack has come to an end before it even begins. Although there is no actual achievement, the momentum is enough.
Moreover, it would be inappropriate to say that Jianghu's counterattack had no results. After all, the Chen family in Yunzhong felt the same way this time. In order not to put more pressure on them, Jinyiwei specifically did not increase their strength in Yunzhong.
The Jinyiwei stationed locally are particularly good at fishing in troubled waters. After all, where the family is powerful, it is difficult for the government or the Jinyiwei to get involved. Instead of looking ugly and facing a dilemma, it is better to just mess it up and let everyone get by.
But this time they were definitely a blessing in disguise, because the stories in the world became more and more bizarre, and the Chen family in Yunzhong had already gained a bad reputation in the world. One after another, "righteous men" appeared here, either smashing up Chen's shops or harassing Chen family.
's caravan.
But it is inappropriate to say that they are simple bandits. This group of people is very moral. They did not forget to loudly accuse Chen of his crimes before smashing them, and they did not forget to distribute gold and silver to the poor people after robbing.
For a moment, the clouds were filled with green forest heroes. Now the Chen family was really angry. Before they could say anything, the accomplices of these thieves actually took action first.
Seeing this messy situation, Lu Hanjiang specially asked Xu Le to come to express his goodwill.
"Mr. Chen, the thieves in this world are the most difficult to deal with. Mr. Lu said, after all, we all come from aristocratic families, so we don't necessarily want you to be bullied by a group of ignorant thieves. In this way, if you say something, as long as Jin Yiwei can help
Wherever we are busy, we will never refuse.”
What Xu Le said was righteous and awe-inspiring, but to Chen Heguang's ears, it was like swearing without using any curse words. The Chen family in their Yunzhong family just died of a family head, and it was not like the ancestral clan was burned clean. They had to deal with a group of local ruffians.
If you want Jin Yiwei to help, who can you kill?
"I would like to ask Xu Zhenfu to thank Mr. Lu for your kindness. They are just a few small thieves. You don't need to worry about them. Mr. Chen can handle them enough." Chen Heguang said.
Chen Heguang said that he was very proud, and he indeed had the capital to be proud. After all, compared to a behemoth like the Chen family in Yunzhong, it was not a piece of cake to clean up a bunch of reckless people.
But he was soon slapped in the face. It is indeed easy to deal with the rough and treacherous gangsters, but this world has always been easy to hide and hard to guard against. It is easy to deal with visible thieves, but you have to deal with invisible stumbling blocks.
It's a little tiring.
In just half a month, the Yunzhong Chen family experienced various attacks from the imperial court, such as the more stringent inspection of the motorcade, being detained for questioning for carrying weapons, etc.
There is no doubt that this is all a good thing that Jin Yiwei explained. Chen Heguang was furious. He angrily complained to Chen Nuo: "Uncle Chen! Jin Yiwei bullies people too much! They just don't want to see us well!"
"It's your first day dealing with Jin Yiwei and the imperial court?" Chen Nuo looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot: "If Jin Yiwei lets such a good opportunity pass easily, then we have to worry about what bad things they are holding in their stomachs.
.”
From Chen Nuo's point of view, it was natural for Jin Yiwei to deliberately target them. This kind of thing had been expected by them, but if they thought that this would make the world laugh, then they really underestimated the Yunzhong Chen family.
"Here comes someone."
Chen Nuo called all the attendants waiting outside the door in. He glanced at Chen Heguang and said calmly: "The eldest son is unwell and will stay in another hospital to recuperate from now on. I will take over all affairs of the clan."
"Yes." No one in the Chen family raised any objections. They all bowed and accepted the order. Only Chen Heguang stood aside with a pale face, like an outsider.
