Chapter 234 Resignation [Please vote! 】
When the geniuses from all walks of life gathered in Longyuan City and it was very lively, the number of people paying attention to the court decreased. Few people know that there is also an undercurrent surging in the Imperial City of Yin Dynasty at this moment.
On this day, Liang Fuguo finished his government affairs and walked out of the Prime Minister's Gate. He had to walk to the entrance of the Imperial City to take a ride. Just as he was leading his guards through the long passage, he saw a team in bright red robes in front of him from a distance.
The leader is a tall elderly eunuch in brocade robes and black crown. Although his beard and hair are white, he is full of energy and his eyes are burning.
"Eunuch Cao." Liang Fuguo smiled and handed over his hands from a distance.
There are not many people in the world who can make Mr. Zuo Xiang salute first, but if the person facing him is Cao Wujiu, there is nothing unreasonable.
“I’ve met Mr. Zuo Xiang.” Cao Wujiu immediately returned the greeting.
The great eunuch in charge of the horse-drinking prison followed the emperor. He had not taken a step out of the imperial city for many years, let alone the violent killings he once had. Therefore, in recent years, Cao Wujiu has been called the "Twilight Tiger in the Imperial City".
Behind him stood a group of godsons, lined up like a formation of wild geese, majestic.
Liang Fuguo stepped forward and Shi Shiran asked: "It is rare for Eunuch Cao to leave His Majesty's side. Is he with this group of people?"
"This old slave is waiting for Mr. Zuo Xiang here." Cao Wujiu said bluntly.
"Oh?" Liang Fuguo was not surprised, and just asked: "What important matter does Eunuch Cao have? He didn't go directly to the office to tell me, but stopped me here halfway?"
" I'm just saying a few words as I escort Mr. Zuo Xiang out of the imperial city." Cao Wujiu raised his hand and motioned for Liang Fuguo to accompany him.
The two walked slowly side by side towards the imperial city gate. Liang Fuguo's guards and Cao Wujiu's men and horses were all lined up fifty paces behind them, each forming a queue.
Cao Wujiu then spoke quietly, "I have a godson who was quite close to me in the early years. Later, he committed some crimes and was imprisoned. Recently, I heard that Master Zuo Xiang took him away. I don’t know what happened, can you give him back to me?”
"Eunuch Cao is talking about Cao Tong, right?" Liang Fuguo did not play riddles with the other party, but said directly: "He was an army supervisor during the Southern Expedition, but all the soldiers were wiped out, and he was the only one to escape. This must be It's a bit strange, we have to interrogate him before releasing him. But since he is Eunuch Cao's godson, I can assure you that we will not torture him, let alone let him die, and Eunuch Cao will never have to worry about his personal safety." br>
"My worthless godson has been in prison for many years. He may be falsely accused. He has said many things that cannot be counted. Mr. Zuo Xiang must distinguish carefully." Cao Wujiu said again. .
"This matter is of great importance, and the Ministry of Punishment will surely find irrefutable evidence." Liang Fuguo said flatly.
"Lord Zuo Xiang." Cao Wujiu frowned slightly, paused, and said directly: "I have reported this matter to Your Majesty. Your Majesty means that this person can be handed over to the Yinma Prison for trial. "
"Eunuch Cao, after all, you are somewhat involved with this person. No matter what the results are, you will inevitably be suspected. Let the Ministry of Punishment do it." Liang Fuguo refused. .
Seeing the imperial city gate right in front of him, Cao Wujiu stopped, and the crowd following him from a distance also stopped.
"You have done too many thankless things, Mr. Liang." His tone became a little cold, "I sincerely advise you, even if you are not thinking about yourself, you should always think about Liang. The descendants of the family should think about it."
Liang Fuguo smiled back, "The descendants of the Liang family have already enjoyed many undeserved blessings because of the family. Even if they die because of the family, it seems to be no regrets. Father-in-law, I would also like to advise you, let those who deserve dignity go away with dignity. If you don’t want to be dignified..."
He did not say the rest of the words, but turned around and waved his hand.
The guards behind them followed up with their horses, while the people in the Yinma Prison stayed where they were with Cao Wujiu. The two sides were separated by a gate of the imperial city, and they were clearly separated.
...
Liang Yue practiced hard at home for more than half a month. During this time, he did not go to Zhuxiesi or Yunzhiguan. Every day I just practice my skills under the Enlightenment Tree and study martial arts.
Actually, he used to do this every night when he came home, but at that time he would still go out to do errands. Now he is practicing day and night, sprinting for the selection battle.
Normally, if the goal is to attain realm, just like those practitioners on the mountain, you only need to practice hard in seclusion. If you use the time that others do other things to practice, your state will always be a little bit ahead. But it would be difficult to fully utilize the cultivation gained in this way.
If the purpose is to fight, Liang Yue's previous training mode is very good. He practiced hard at night and practiced fighting during the day. The help brought by experience in battle is sometimes more important than realm.
So he has never used the mode of retreat and asceticism before.
The reason he is like this now is because he has accumulated enough experience in this realm, and he needs to focus on improving his cultivation before the selection battle comes.
When I left home again, it was already July.
The selection battle will begin in a few days.
However, the first news he received was not about the selection battle, but a major event in the court.
Not long ago, King Jiang Zhenye of Dinggou went to court and submitted a letter to resign, wanting to concentrate on pursuing martial arts. Your Majesty agrees to order Ling Sansi to temporarily lead the three guards of Long Yuan.
Hearing the news, Liang Yue understood that the Nan Zheng case had finally come to an end.
Liang Fuguo did not kill Lu Yuanwang with one blow in public in the court, but chose to give him a more honorable exit.
Perhaps it is also because Jiang Zhenye is so much stronger than Lu Yuanwang after all that he has no way to completely crush him to death yet. He can only drive the opponent out of the court first and achieve a staged victory.
But is this really a victory for him?
Although using Cao Tong and what happened back then can make the other party retreat, it is not Jiang Zhenye who withdraws from this step, but the emperor.
I am afraid that after this experience, the relationship between the emperor and the left prime minister will be completely broken.
Liang Yue was not too involved in the game in the court. From his standpoint, he would of course support what Liang Fuguo did, but he would inevitably have some concerns.
Jiang Zhenye’s resignation also brought a sudden change to the three guards of Long Yuan.
Ling Sansi has always been a great general in the field and has never had his own men among the three guards. For a period of time, the actual command of the three guards of Long Yuan may still be in the hands of the clan. But he will never be willing to be a puppet. At least the most important imperial guards and imperial city guards will definitely undergo a purge.
On the contrary, the imperial guards are not that important. Brothers like Lao Hu and others stationed in the station will most likely be appeased and continue to serve.
This is why corrupt officials are easy to fight and evil officials are hard to get rid of.
The upper management has big goals and can quickly target the precise person when something happens. But even if these imperial guards at the bottom do some trivial bad things every day, no one will go to war to eliminate them. After all, there are tens of thousands of people below, and it is not easy to find another group of people who are willing to do these dirty jobs. .
So the commanders at the top come and go, but the brothers stationed below are safe and sound.
What the people of Shendu care most about are the things around them. A major event like the downfall of King Dinggou can only be discussed for a few days at most. But the arena and arena fights that can be seen everywhere attract most of the attention.
As soon as Liang Yue walked out of the house, he felt the fiery atmosphere. He heard some good people on the street shouting along the way: "Monk Xuanjiu of the Nanzong Mianbi Temple is going to fight with the Northern Sect Jilei Temple." The warrior monk Yuan Sheng is fighting in Qingfoyuan outside the city!"
"The battle between the north and the south of Buddhism will begin tomorrow night!"
"The young master of Jingmen will fight in the city of God again. This time he wants to challenge Qi Yingwu!”
“The Lingya Three Rankings have changed, and Xuanmen Wen Yifan is ranked second on the Youlin Ranking!”
