Gu Cheng's acting skills are quite reliable, and the attitude he performed at this time seems to be like being loyal and then being wronged.
It's just that the three people present are all people who have gone through struggles and fights from the bottom to reach their current position. They are all old foxes with thousands of years. It is really useless for Gu Cheng to play this kind of fairy tale routine with them.
But even if Yin Hongyuan doesn't believe Gu Cheng, he has no other evidence to prove that Chen Jingnan was killed by Gu Cheng. Anyway, all the witnesses are dead now.
Duan Jingang was a little confused at this time and said: "You just said that you killed a big trouble for me, Jingyesi, what did you mean?"
Gu Cheng said in a deep voice: "This is the real reason why Xinnanhou Mansion colluded with evil cultivators this time!"
With that said, Gu Cheng told all his previous guesses about the third prince. After listening, the three of them immediately looked at each other.
Yin Hongyuan frowned and said: "I heard that you have a relationship with the fourth prince, but now you are slandering and saying that the third prince planned all this behind his back. Are you borrowing my power, Jingyesi, to deal with the third prince?"
Gu Cheng shook his head and said: "Of course not. I, Gu Cheng, am the commander of the Eastern Region of Jingyesi. Everything I do is for Jingyesi's consideration. What does it have to do with the fourth prince? Besides, there is no evidence, even if it is
There is direct evidence, and this matter cannot bring down the third prince.
But have the three adults ever thought that although the third prince is targeting the second and fourth princes this time, what if his plan succeeds? Then I, Jingyesi, will be the unlucky one!
You must know that during the ancestor worship ceremony, although Longxiang Guards came to protect the imperial city, I, Jingyesi, was responsible for the security of the entire capital.
I have already written down the characteristics of the corpse tapir, and the three adults can also check the information. Once this thing starts to make a fuss, it is extremely difficult to deal with, especially on the day of the ancestor worship ceremony, when there are huge crowds of people, no matter how high the cultivation level is.
It is difficult to catch this thing and it will cause chaos.
So in the end, when a commotion broke out, the ancestor worship ceremony was held on a different date, and the third prince naturally changed from a candidate to the prince who read out the memorial ceremony, and will I, Jingyesi, be questioned by His Majesty for this?"
After listening to Gu Cheng's explanation, Fang Henshui and the others realized what Gu Cheng meant, but they had not expected this.
Duan Jingang's hand violently grasped it, and he made a handprint on the armrest of the black iron chair under him.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
This time, he was responsible for the security outside the capital during the ancestor worship ceremony. If such a thing really happened, the Grand Governor would probably be the first to scold him, even though this matter was not directly related to him.
At this time, Gu Cheng said slowly and embellished: "The third prince has close contacts with Jianghu people, and most of the power he can use are Jianghu people, so this person is also taking advantage of Jianghu people from all sides when thinking about things, but
I, Jingyesi, have never been in your eyes.
This time, the other party probably did not come directly against me, Jingyesi, but it is obvious that the other party did not consider my situation, Jingyesi, and even me, Jingyesi, was trapped in it."
The expressions of the three of them were a little gloomy, including Yin Hongyuan's.
Although he wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Gu Cheng and achieve the purpose of embarrassing Fang Henshui, he was also Jingyesi's commander. If Jingyesi was embarrassed, it was also his face that was embarrassed.
Moreover, what Gu Cheng said was not for nothing to slander the third prince. What he said was actually true. Maybe the third prince did not consider Jingyesi at all when he first decided to implement this plan. in.
The evil cultivator of the Zuo Dao committed suicide immediately after being caught by Gu Cheng. He was obviously a top-notch death warrior, and he might have some clues in the hands of the third prince.
After the incident is completed, if the other party is caught by Jingyesi, he will probably not be able to pry his mouth open, and the whole blame will be taken.
Gu Cheng directly killed a powerful prince without reporting it. This was indeed a very troublesome and irritating matter.
But what he said at this time directly put the third prince against the entire Jingyesi, which aroused the hatred of the three commanders. The three of them had no direct relationship with the third prince. .
I might even say arrogantly that they are much more important to the whole of Daqian than the third prince.
Emperor Daqian has more than a dozen sons, some of whom are better than the third prince, and some who have more potential than the third prince, but in the whole of Daqian there are only four commanders of Jingyesi.
Even the Commander-in-Chief Yasushi can completely isolate a prince from the throne with just one opening of his mouth. This is no joke.
It's just that because of his authority and position, Yasuyashi doesn't like to get involved in the struggle for the throne, but at the same time, they also hate someone getting them involved.
Duan Jingang stood up, waved his hand and said: "Gu Cheng is right to destroy Xin Nanhou's mansion! It is the critical moment of the ancestor worship ceremony, and there is no room for those Xiaoxiao gang to mess around!
This matter has nothing to do with you for the time being, I will issue an order and have the Gongli Division record merit for everyone under your command."
Duan Jingang's words directly settled the matter, and even Yin Hongyuan, who had always wanted to target Fang Henshui, didn't say anything.
This matter indeed has nothing to do with Gu Cheng, but it has something to do with the third prince.
Next, they may have to warn the third prince. It doesn't matter how you princes fight with each other, but don't involve Jingyesi in it.
Gu Cheng quickly raised his hands and said: "Thank you, sir. By the way, Chen Jingnan, the night watchman under my command in the Eastern Region, died in this incident. I wonder if my subordinates can promote someone to come up?"
At the moment, Duan Jingang and others are focused on how to warn the third prince, but they have no intention of getting entangled in this kind of problem, so Duan Jingang waved his hand impatiently and said: "The people under your command will decide for themselves."
A smile suddenly appeared on Gu Cheng's face: "Then I won't disturb you adults."
After getting enough benefits, Gu Cheng turned around and left neatly.
It can be said that it is quite difficult to serve as an official in the capital. Under normal circumstances, he, the commander of the Eastern Region, cannot even appoint night patrols under his command, and is only qualified to make suggestions.
There are only three possibilities for becoming a night watchman at the Jingyesi headquarters in the capital. Either rely on strength, be young and promising, show enough strength, and step up step by step. Tie Tianying and Meng Hantang are like this.
Another thing is to rely on qualifications. Liu Yuanping and Yang Naigong are like this. They joined the Jingyesi headquarters in the capital when they were young, but they did not become night watchmen until they were middle-aged.
The last one is to rely on the whole system, just like Chen Jingnan, who got on the line of the Xinnan Hou Mansion, so he naturally became the night watchman.
So under normal circumstances, if Gu Cheng wanted to promote one of his own people to be a night watchman, he would have to waste some effort, but now that Duan Jingang and others had no time to pay attention to such trivial matters, he got the position naturally.
.
The Gongli Division is the logistics department responsible for coordinating merit points and rewards in the Jingyesi headquarters. Gu Cheng went to the Gongli Division, got the rewards and some documents for this operation, and returned directly to the Eastern Region Jingyesi Division.
.
In front of many night patrols, Gu Cheng directly took out the documents and said with a smile: "I just went to the headquarters of Jingyesi. The commanding officer responded to our annihilation of the Xinnan Hou Mansion and killed these followers in advance.
The traitors colluded with the evil cultivators were very satisfied.
Therefore, all the merit points you deserve are directly recorded above. If you want to exchange for something or keep it, you can go to the merit points department to check it yourself.
Also, because Mr. Chen Jingnan has disappeared, our Eastern Region needs to recruit a new night watchman, and this person is Chen Danggui."
Both Chen Danggui and Kou Andu were treated equally by Gu Cheng, but this position was indeed not suitable for Kou Andu. Of course, given his personality, he would not care about such a position.
After hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
They originally thought that Gu Cheng would definitely be punished for making such a bold decision without reporting it.
But who would have thought that Gu Cheng would do nothing and even get a reward back? How did he do it?
The night watchmen were a little overwhelmed, but then they all stood up in unison and said loudly: "Thank you, sir!"
After Chen Jingnan died, there was no one among these night watchmen who was too stubborn and insisted on competing with Gu Cheng.
And during the battle to annihilate the Xinnan Hou Mansion, they also saw Gu Cheng's strength. Although Gu Cheng's level was low, his combat power was not comparable to that of the night watchmen like them.
Moreover, this time Gu Cheng was not punished but came back with a commendation from Jing Yesi, which made them feel a little confused.
For such a boss, even if they cannot completely surrender, it is best not to offend the other person first.
The battle on Gu Cheng's side confirmed that he had finally secured his position as the leader of the Eastern Territory, but some people felt uncomfortable, such as the third prince.
In the evening of the next day, the third prince Li Xiaoxuan and all his subordinates gathered in the palace of Prince Yan, and the atmosphere was very solemn.
Li Xiaoxuan is in his early thirties, with a handsome and cold appearance, and a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows that give people a very offensive feeling.
"Damn it! Do you know what I went through in the court today?
The three commanders of Jingyesi came over and beat me one by one, warning me not to mess around at this time.
Do these bitches still take our Daqian Royal Family seriously? They are so presumptuous! Bastards!"
Li Xiaoxuan's handsome face was distorted at this moment, and he was obviously extremely angry.
However, although he cursed fiercely, in fact when Fang Henshui and the others beat him, he did not dare to say a single word.
Among the several princes, he was not the strongest, nor was he the most favored. If he offended Jingyesi to death, he would really be insulated from the throne.
Moreover, it's not that Jingyesi and the others didn't take the Daqian royal family seriously, they just didn't take Li Xiaoxuan seriously.
