Chen Zhongli, the Chief of the Jiangnan Army, had come to Jiangnan to enjoy his retirement.
In fact, Chen Zhongli was not as unbearable as Du Xiao had reported to Su Xin because he had always known what he was doing.
When he was young, he was considered an outstanding figure of the younger generation in the Xiangnan Martial Arts World. When the Zhou Kingdom rose up, he first joined the Sanxiang Martial Arts Union. Then, after seeing the potential of the Zhou Kingdom, he joined the Zhou Kingdom. It could be said that along the way, although he was afraid of death and did not make any contributions, it had to be said that Chen Zhongli had his own way of surviving to his current position.
For most martial artists in the pugilistic world, wealth came from danger. However, for Chen Zhongli, he would never do anything that was too dangerous. If he risked his life for wealth, he should be careful that he would not be able to enjoy it.
Therefore, along the way, he would definitely do his best when he needed to. However, once he encountered danger, he would be the first to hide far away.
This was Chen Zhongli's life principle. It was also the reason why he could get to where he was now and live for so long.
Although there were many experts and big shots in the military of the Zhou Kingdom, most of them were the martial artists who had followed the Zhou Kingdom to rise up. They had high positions and power, but there were even more people who did not want to die.
Although Chen Zhongli was criticized for his lack of ability, cowardice, and corruption, this did not stop him from continuing to plunder and enjoy himself. Didn't he work hard all his life for this day?
Moreover, Chen Zhongli also understood the purpose of the imperial court sending him here. It was nothing more than for him to be a face and not cause trouble. Therefore, as long as he did not anger the Jiang Family of the Imperial Heaven Region, he was still very comfortable as the Chief of the Jiangnan Army.
While he was still asleep, a servant immediately ran in and said hurriedly, "Sir, bad news! People from the Six Fan School of Jiangnan have come to ask for help. They said that something has happened to their master! "
Chen Zhongli shivered when he heard this, and instantly lost his sleepiness.
As the face of the Zhou Kingdom in Jiangnan, Chen Zhongli knew about Zhang Dongping. However, he did not think much of Zhang Dongping.
Although both of them were trash, at least Chen Zhongli knew his place and could see himself clearly. Zhang Dongping, on the other hand, couldn't even see what kind of trash she was.
Chen Zhongli did not take such a person seriously at all. He was even worried that the other party would cause trouble in Jiangnan and implicate him. After all, they were all people of the imperial court. Although they were not in the same department, he could not really ignore the other party.
Now that he heard this news, Chen Zhongli immediately cursed in his heart. That trash really caused trouble again!
"Quick, bring me there!"
With that said, Chen Zhongli brought his men to the living room. After hearing what Pang Chong and Li Jing said, Chen Zhongli immediately smashed the table next to him and cursed, "Idiots!"
In Chen Zhongli's opinion, this Zhang Dongping was a genuine idiot. Did he know his own weight? He actually dared to snatch a woman from the Jiang Clan of the Emperor Heavenly Domain? Was he tired of living?
Then, Chen Zhongli yelled at Pang Chong and Li Jing, "What are you two doing? Don't you know how to stop your master from doing such a thing? "
Pang Chong and Li Jing also looked aggrieved and said, "We want to stop him, but Chief Chen, you know our master's character. We have to stop him."
Chen Zhongli rubbed his head and said, "Bring your men to the Imperial Dragon City immediately. I hope things don't get out of hand."
However, things were obviously a little different from what Chen Zhongli had imagined. When they arrived at the Imperial Dragon City, they saw a crowd of onlookers and Zhang Dongping's corpse on the ground!
Seeing this, Chen Zhongli was immediately dumbfounded. The Emperor Heavenly Domain really dared to kill someone!
To think that the Emperor Heaven Domain would kill a chief constable of the Great Zhou Dynasty without the slightest bit of hesitation!
Chen Zhongli's heart sank. This time, it was a serious matter. Although it was Zhang Dongping who died, he would definitely be implicated.
Zhang Dongping did not know why he came to Jiangnan, but Chen Zhongli knew very well.
It could be said that the higher-ups transferred him to Jiangnan as the chief of the army not only to avoid provoking the Emperor Heavenly Domain, but also to let him keep an eye on Zhang Dongping.
After all, Chen Zhongli was not good at other things, but he was famous for his cautiousness in the military of the Zhou Kingdom. Otherwise, he would not have survived until now in the battlefield.
But now, Zhang Dongping died while he was not keeping an eye on her.
In fact, compared to Zhang Dongping's death, Chen Zhongli was more worried about the people of the Emperor Heavenly Domain.
If something happened to the people of the Emperor Heavenly Domain, he could easily be implicated in the battle between the Zhou Kingdom and the entire Emperor Heavenly Domain. At the thought of that, Chen Zhongli shuddered.
Therefore, he ordered his men to collect Zhang Dongping's body while preparing to report this matter to his superior. The death of a chief constable was no longer something he could suppress.
At the same time, Jiang Li also reported this matter to his father, a chief of the Jiang family's direct line of descent.
In the Jiang Dynasty, after such a long time, the number of people in the direct branch and branch branch were numerous. However, there were only thirteen branches in the direct branch, and every branch had a chief. Their strengths were almost all in the Yang God realm.
Although Jiang Li did not put the trash Zhang Dongping in his eyes, her identity was special, so he had to listen to the family's opinion.
After hearing the news, Jiang Li's father immediately coldly snorted and said, "Femme fatale! What kind of woman does my Jiang family not have? Other than my Jiang family, there are so many powerful sects in the Jianghu in the twelve Immortal Realms. There are so many women of noble birth in those sects, yet you insist on mixing around with a lowly singer. Now, you even caused so much trouble! "
Jiang Li only lowered his head and listened. He did not refute. Anyway, to him, he was a bit used to this sort of thing.
Only after Jiang Li's father finished scolding did he say, "But you don't need to worry. It's only a little constable of the Six Doors. If he's killed, then he's dead. Moreover, not only will he be killed, the Zhou Kingdom will also give our Jiang family an explanation!"
A hint of cold glint appeared in Jiang Li's father's eyes, and he said, "The Emperor Dragon City is our Jiang family's territory, yet he dares to cause trouble here. Isn't this slapping our Jiang family's face?
Also, he even said something like telling our Jiang family to be humble. Is this the attitude that the Zhou Kingdom has towards our Jiang family?
Tomorrow, bring some people to surround the Jiangnan Road's Six Doors and the Jiangnan Road's Military Governor's Office. Tell the Zhou Kingdom that our Jiang family wants an explanation! If they don't give it to us, then our Jiang family will take it ourselves! "
Although Jiang Yuanzhen was unwilling to make a move against the Zhou Kingdom now, he subconsciously looked down on the Zhou Kingdom.
Even the Region Lord Jiang Yuanzhen thought so, let alone the other people of the Imperial Heaven Region. Therefore, Jiang Li's father's attitude was very arrogant and overbearing. No matter who died, they were the ones who provoked the Imperial Heaven Region, so the Zhou Kingdom had to give them an explanation.
Below, a hint of joy appeared in Jiang Li's eyes. This matter was actually easier to resolve than he had imagined. If he had known that the family had such an attitude towards the Zhou Kingdom, he would definitely torture Zhang Dongping more before killing him. He would let him know the consequences of stealing his woman.
Therefore, after obtaining the attitude of the family, Jiang Li directly surrounded the Six Doors and the Jiangnan Road's Military Governor's Office.
At this time, Chen Zhongli was also in Jiangnan Road's Six Doors making arrangements for Zhang Dongping's funeral. Of course, the most important thing was to write down the information in detail and hand it over to the secret agents of the Intelligence Bureau for them to deliver to Shengjing City.
At this time, hearing the noise outside, Chen Zhongli immediately walked out with Pang Chong and Li Jing. At this time, Jiangnan Road's Six Doors was already surrounded by the Jiang family's martial artists. The few constables guarding the door were directly killed and thrown to the side.
Jiang Li looked at Chen Zhongli and sneered, "You're the Jiangnan Road's Military Governor, Chen Zhongli? Since you're here, it saves me the trouble of making another trip!
Go back and tell the imperial court of the Zhou Kingdom that the people of the Zhou Kingdom actually dared to cause trouble in the Jiang family's Imperial Dragon City and even spoke rudely to the Jiang family. The Zhou Kingdom must give me an explanation for this matter!
If the Zhou Kingdom doesn't want to give this explanation, then the Jiang family will personally come and get it! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Li turned around and left. However, before he left, he sneered at Chen Zhongli and said, "Don't even think about escaping. Right now, the entire Jiangnan Prefecture belongs to the Jiang family. Send the news to the Zhou Kingdom. Tell them that the Jiang family only wants an explanation!"
Chen Zhongli's expression instantly darkened to the extreme. The other party did not even give him a chance to explain.
Originally, Chen Zhongli had sent people to find out that the people of the Imperial Heaven Domain were not injured. Who knew that the other party would play such a trick? What could he do?
Chen Zhongli could not give this explanation, so he could only send a letter to the Zhou Kingdom and let the big shots of Shengjing City handle it.
However, at this time, Pang Chong and Li Jing suddenly rushed over and said, "Sir! You can't write it! If you send the news to Shengjing City first, then the first to die will definitely be us! "
Chen Zhongli frowned and said, "What did you say? If we don't send the news to Shengjing City, are we just going to wait to be killed by the Jiang family? "
Li Jing said with a bitter expression, "Lord Chen, don't you know why the imperial court sent you and Zhang Dongping here?
The imperial court has no intention of starting a war with the Imperial Heaven Domain now. They don't even want to have a conflict, so they sent you and Zhang Dongping here.
Now that something like this has happened, do you think the imperial court will really start a war with the Imperial Heaven Domain? It's impossible for the imperial court to not even prepare for it.
So, there's only one result, which is to compromise and give the Imperial Heaven Domain an explanation. However, this explanation can't be too heavy, otherwise the imperial court will lose face.
Lord Chen, don't you realize that your life and the lives of the people of Six Fan School is a good explanation? "
