Under Lü Hau Chang's wrath, Crown Prince Lü Longji suffered a great loss, but what was more important was his reputation.
It was needless to say what kind of treatment a Crown Prince would receive after committing a foolish act and a grave mistake.
However, this matter was not over yet. Lü Longji was Lü Hau Chang's biological son and the Crown Prince of the Eastern Qi imperial court. He had to be punished for his mistake. As for Jiang Wenyuan, he had to pay with his life for his mistake!
Lü Hau Chang said coldly, "Zhang Rang."
A tall middle-aged eunuch in a dark green brocade robe said in a low voice, "I'm here."
"Jiang Wenyuan has gone too far this time. Does he really think that the Lü Royal Family doesn't dare to kill him?
For so many years, I can pretend that I didn't see what he did in the dark, but he should never have interfered in the internal affairs of the imperial family!
He should be killed for trying to touch the foundation of the imperial family!
His memorial arch has been erected for so many years, and the Lü Royal Family has tolerated it for so long. We have not let the Jiang Family down. Now that the Jiang Family has dug their own grave, they can't blame anyone else!
Zhang Rang, take the people of the Front Palace Department and cooperate with the Dragon Riders Imperial Army to kill the Prince of Anle's residence. Whoever brings Jiang Wenyuan's head will be rewarded handsomely! "
What Jiang Wenyuan had done all these years was like a fly, so disgusting that people wanted to swat him to death.
But although flies were annoying, they were not fatal. The so-called guests and hangers-on that Jiang Wenyuan had recruited over the years might be strong in the eyes of ordinary people, but they were vulnerable in the eyes of the Eastern Qi imperial court.
But this time, Jiang Wenyuan's involvement in the internal power struggle of the Eastern Qi imperial family had really touched Lü Hau Chang's reverse scale, so this time, Jiang Wenyuan must die!
At this time, Lü Longguang suddenly said, "Father, some of my men are also in the Ji State Prefecture, they can also share your burden."
Lü Hau Chang frowned and said lightly, "Yes, if your men kill Jiang Wenyuan, they will also be rewarded."
As the emperor, he was even happy to see the infighting among his children.
There was no need to say more about how cruel the royal family was. Almost every emperor was like raising a poisonous insect. Only the winner could sit on the throne.
In the history of Eastern Qi, more than half of the emperors were not born as princes.
In the past, Lü Hau Chang was just an ordinary member of the royal family. He had never experienced such cruel competition and slaughter, so his ability was slightly mediocre.
Lü Hau Chang was aware of the conflict between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince. He also knew that all of his other sons who had some ability had ambitions and thoughts. However, he did not stop them.
As long as his heirs didn't cause too much trouble and didn't offend his dignity as the Emperor, Lü Hau Chang didn't intend to interfere.
At that moment, Cheng Zhouhai, Zhong Ping, and Wang Qianping were in an inn in the Ji State Prefecture.
At present, the few of them were in a complete stalemate. They clearly had a clue, but in the end, they couldn't investigate the case, nor could they not investigate it.
Moreover, Chu Xiu and Chu Xiaode hadn't returned for a day. God knew what they were doing. Even Cheng Zhouhai had some complaints about Chu Xiu.
This time, Hall Master Guan had assigned Chu Xiu to lead the team. They felt that they had done their best. But now, Chu Xiu had disappeared halfway. What was going on?
At this moment, Wang Qianping suddenly revealed a strange look in his eyes. He said, "The two of you, it's not that I want to say this, but Chu Xiu's actions are a little too excessive. Lord Hall Master gave the leader position to Chu Xiu, but now Chu Xiu has gone missing. What is going on?"
Cheng Zhouhai narrowed his eyes and said, "Wang Qianping, what do you mean?"
Wang Qianping sneered and said, "What I mean is that we can't help Chu Xiu take the blame for nothing.
He isn't good at investigating cases, but we are. We have done everything we can for him. But now that we are faced with a difficult situation, this Chu Xiu has gone missing.
According to the rules of the Guanzhong torture room, if the case is not solved and the reputation of the Guanzhong torture room is ruined, Chu Xiu will be punished. We can't do anything about it.
Why don't we write a letter back to the Guanzhong torture room and report Chu Xiu to Hall Master Guan? If something goes wrong, Hall Master Guan can't blame us. "
Cheng Zhouhai frowned and looked at Wang Qianping. This guy was really sinister. Previously, he had been so calm in front of Chu Xiu, as if he didn't dare to provoke Chu Xiu. But now, he was playing this trick in the dark.
If they really reported Chu Xiu in front of Hall Master Guan, it would make Chu Xiu seem to be headstrong and self-opinionated. Finally, it would cause the case to be unable to be solved. Not only would Chu Xiu's reputation in the Guanzhong torture room plummet, but it would also cause Chu Xiu to be punished by Guan Siyu.
Guanzhong torture room had its own rules. In other sects, talents like Chu Xiu would definitely be given some preferential treatment. But in the Guanzhong torture room, if you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you do wrong, you will be punished. It was that simple.
Zhong Ping said faintly, "I won't do this kind of secretly slandering others, and I'm also too lazy to do it. If you want to go, then go."
This time, he didn't contribute much to Qiu Zhensheng's case. He was only good at killing people. Actually, it didn't matter to him whether the case was completed or not.
Cheng Zhouhai also looked indifferent. "Wang Qianping, I've heard about what you did in the Guanzhong torture room. Don't play this trick here. If you want to stab people in the back, you can go. I won't stop you, but don't think about seducing me to go with you."
Although Cheng Zhouhai didn't think he was a gentleman, he really couldn't stab people in the back like this.
Moreover, he didn't want to incur hatred with Chu Xiu because of such a small matter.
Even if Chu Xiu really didn't complete the case, which caused his reputation to be damaged and he was punished by the Hall Master, Chu Xiu was still Chu Xiu. His strength was still there.
Although the Guanzhong torture room valued merit, at the end of the day, strength was the guarantee.
With Chu Xiu's current talent and strength, he would definitely become a torture officer or a leader of the Arrest Department in the future. Why bother to offend Chu Xiu for such a small matter?
Not all the cases handled by the Guanzhong torture room could be solved. There were also many unsolved cases. Cheng Zhouhai could still afford that little punishment. At least, it wasn't worth it to offend Chu Xiu because of this little punishment.
Seeing these two people's attitude, Wang Qianping was a little surprised.
Because from the past few days of contact, this Chu Xiu didn't seem to be very close to Cheng Zhouhai and Zhong Ping. In the end, they actually chose to stand on Chu Xiu's side. It was really strange.
However, Wang Qianping didn't want to care so much now. At this time, if he didn't hit Chu Xiu while he was down, when he returned to the Guanzhong torture room, his master Yin Botong wouldn't let him off.
Yin Botong's previous disciple, Li Tianhao, was crippled by Chu Xiu. Since then, Yin Botong hated Chu Xiu to the core. This time, Wang Qianping followed Chu Xiu to carry out the mission. His master had personally instructed him to find an opportunity to cause trouble for Chu Xiu.
If Chu Xiu remained unharmed throughout the journey, it would be fine. But now, he didn't mind hitting Chu Xiu while he was down and stabbing him in the back.
Wang Qianping sneered. "Alright, you guys are of high moral standing. If you don't want to complain, then I'll do it! Hall Master Guan is very clear about rewards and punishments. I'd like to see if you guys will also suffer when Chu Xiu is punished! "
At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open. Chu Xiu's figure stepped into the inn. Immediately, Wang Qianping's mouth opened wide. He almost swallowed the words he just said.
Chu Xiu's face was gloomy. "Say it, why don't you say it? Didn't you want to go to Hall Master Guan to complain about me? I'd like to see how you're going to complain about me! "
Wang Qianping's expression changed. He forced a smile and said, "Official Chu, I was actually joking just now …"
Before Wang Qianping could finish his words, Chu Xiu had already taken a step forward. He arrived in front of Wang Qianping and directly grabbed at him.
They had experienced Chu Xiu's temperamental personality before. He would attack as soon as he said he would, without the slightest bit of nonsense or hesitation. Previously, when he was facing the Five Heroes of Jiangdong, he was like this. It was simply impossible to predict.
Now, Wang Qianping was mentally prepared. The moment he saw Chu Xiu, the Gang Energy around him erupted. He retreated and wanted to block Chu Xiu.
However, Chu Xiu's grab changed into a seal halfway. The Great Vajra Wheel Seal crashed down, and Wang Qianping's pitiful Gang Energy was almost instantly shattered by the Great Vajra Wheel Seal.
The Great Sacrificial Grappling Hand was executed. Wang Qianping was directly lifted up by the neck by Chu Xiu. The Gang Energy around him was completely sealed. This caused him to instantly reveal a panicked expression. He hurriedly shouted, "Chu Xiu! What are you trying to do? If you dare to touch me, the Guanzhong Torture Room will definitely not tolerate you! "
It was a serious crime to kill a colleague. In the previous competition between the younger generation, Chu Xiu had crippled Li Tianhao. It could be said that the sword had no eyes, and the fists and kicks had no heart.
However, if Chu Xiu touched him now, it would be a mutual killing between colleagues. This was definitely a big taboo in the Guanzhong Torture Room.
At this moment, even Cheng Zhouhai was shocked. He hurriedly advised, "Brother Chu! Calm down! We're all on the same side. There's no need to make a fuss like this. "
At this moment, Chu Xiu only looked at Wang Qianping with a cold gaze. He said coldly, "If you want to stab me in the back, sure, but you have to be mentally prepared to bear my wrath. Now, are you prepared for this?"
Feeling Chu Xiu's cold gaze, Wang Qianping's expression suddenly changed. His predecessor, Yin Botong's former disciple, Li Tianhao, had been crippled by Chu Xiu. Chu Xiu's ruthlessness had a previous record. If Chu Xiu went crazy and really crippled or killed him, who could he go to for justice?
Looking at Chu Xiu's extremely cold gaze, Wang Qianping's tone was no longer tough. Instead, he lowered his voice and said, "Official Chu, I was blinded by lard just now. Please don't mind me. I have a cheap mouth. Please let me go this time, Official Chu."
Seeing Wang Qianping's appearance, Cheng Zhouhai and Zhong Ping both felt a little ashamed. This person was really a disgrace to the Guanzhong Torture Room.
It was very normal to be afraid when facing a strong opponent. However, there were really not many who would lower their voice and beg for mercy like Wang Qianping.
