Chapter 87 Prelude to Ascension (1st update)

Su Shirong: "Wanhualou is engaged in the business of selling human lives. As long as we get evidence to prove what the Zhao family did, this is an opportunity to completely trip up Zhao Tongzhi."

Zhou Gu didn't want to, but even if there was evidence, the Zhao family would not admit it.

Zhou Gu: "Even if there is evidence, Zhao Tongzhi can still push someone to take the blame and abandon his car to protect the commander, but we still can't do anything to him."

Zhou Gu and Su Shirong did not say anything explicitly, and others present could also sense that Zhou Gu was in a difficult situation at this time.

It is impossible to retreat. With the palace seal in hand, there is no way to retreat.

How can we fight against Zhao and Su who have been entrenched in Fucheng for many years?

Nalanjing touched his chin and said: "It is really difficult to kill Zhao Tongzhi just because of the business of selling human lives."

Zhou Gu and Su Shirong were a little discouraged when they heard this.

Then I heard her say: "However, I heard that Wanhua Building has a group of killers, divided into internal and external. The internal ones are responsible for carrying out tasks for Zhao and Su, while the external ones are responsible for the tasks of paying for and killing Wanhua Building guests.

"

"Li Kui is not an internal killer, and he doesn't know the details. However, based on the inference that Su Zhi has been chasing Shi Qin's killers for many years, the number of people is definitely not less than a hundred."

"These people are all housed in Wanhua Building. We just need to know when they gather, and then we can sue the Zhao family for raising private soldiers with evil intentions and plotting rebellion. Su Zhi will abandon his car to protect the commander, and he cannot protect himself. Who can save the Zhao family?

"

Raising private soldiers is a capital crime, who dares to commit it?

Zhou Gu and Su Shirong looked at Nalanjing in shock.

The county magistrate said: "How to sue?"

Nalanjing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Shirong.

Su Shirong grew up in Shangjing before he was ten years old. He was raised by his grandmother and grandfather. After that, he went to Youzhou to take care of his younger brother, and would go back occasionally.

The capital city of Youzhou is not Beijing, so there may be some topics that they are not sensitive to.

Su Shirong knew, however, that raising private soldiers made the royal family fearful. Youzhou was not in the capital, but there was an eldest princess. The eldest princess would never allow such a thing to happen.

As for how to sue?

Su Shirong's shocked expression gradually trembled, and his eyes were firm: "How to sue? Of course, we must implement the charges and file the complaint truthfully!"

The Zhao family was charged with using Wanhua Tower to support private soldiers.

What are soldiers? People who fight! Killers are more powerful soldiers than soldiers. These soldiers only listen to the orders of Zhao and Su. They are not private armies?

They also did not slander Zhao and Su.

All they need to do is present evidence and get Zhao and Su to plead guilty.

The county magistrate asked again: "Where can I go? To the court?"

By the time the imperial court sent someone to take care of this matter, Zhao and Su had already heard the news and sent someone to kill them.

Su Shirong said coldly: "We will get the evidence, kill them, and then report it to the court."

The county magistrate had a question mark on his face: "Can we kill them?"

Su Shirong puffed up his chest: "We can directly obey Zhou Futai and kill a little Tongzhi Zhao, why not?"

The county magistrate glanced at Zhou Gu, vaguely understood what was going on, and asked the biggest problem: "Master Zhou is now the master of Futai, but does he have soldiers? Without soldiers, how can he kill Zhao Tongzhi?"

Yes, Zhou Gu has fame but no power. How to fight this battle?

Nalanjing and Rong Xuan looked at each other, and a flash of light flashed in their eyes.

Rong Xuan wrote two words on the table.

Su Shirong, Zhou Gu, and the county magistrate all looked at it.

House, seal!

Zhou Gu raised his head and looked at Rong Xuan: "You mean to use the government seal to make Shouzheng obey orders?"

Rong Xuan nodded.

Zhou Gu swallowed his saliva and said, "What if you don't believe in keeping upright and don't listen?"

Rong Xuan dipped his hands in tea again, gently dropped the cuffs, then retracted the cuffs.

On the table, there are only two words.

Kill it!

If you don't listen, you will be killed. Everyone understood.

Su Shirong, Zhou Gu, and the county magistrate all stared at Rong Xuan, unable to calm down their breathing for a long time.

A city must be upright and the emperor must think twice before making any decisions, but he is so decisive that if he doesn't obey orders, he will kill him!

The county magistrate was a little scared.

Zhou Gu felt that his whole body was full of blood, and he urgently needed the help of such a counselor.

Su Shirong was shocked, but understood that he was indeed the first person to come to Beijing to solve the case.

Such courage, even if it is temporarily trapped and criticized, is like a dragon stranded on the beach and must not be underestimated.

In the afternoon of the same day, Su Shirong and Zhou Gu went out to buy gold sore medicine. Zhou Gu was assassinated again. After Su Shirong led an encirclement and suppression, he originally wanted to keep him alive, but the killer was cunning, so he let him escape.

Nalanjing, disguised as a secret guard, picked up a living creature from under his feet, threw it into a carriage, and quickly returned to Zhou Mansion.

In Zhou Mansion's firewood room, the killer was unwilling to reveal any secrets of Wanhua House.

Nalanjing gave him a sip of eighteen-layer purgatory potion, and within a quarter of an hour, he was willing to commit suicide. However, when the charges were nearing the end, he suddenly became conscious and bit his tongue to commit suicide.

Nalanjing looked at the half-sheet of charges and felt a little regretful that how many people had died before the killer even revealed the specific location of their camp.

Afterwards, she folded the accusations into her sleeves, and took away half of the secret guards with the county magistrate to Wanhua Tower.

Su Shirong and Rong Xuan took some secret guards to see Shouzheng secretly.

Zhou Gu is now the target of Zhao and Su and must stay in the Zhou Mansion. Su Shirong was worried that something might happen to him, so he and Su Zimo borrowed two secret guards to protect him. Nalan Jing also left some powder for him to give him the chance to survive.

You can always save your life.

At dusk, Nalanjing, who was lurking near Wanhua Tower, left the secret guard with the county magistrate and asked him to act according to her signal.

After an hour, if she didn't show up, they would just take action and quietly send the things into Wanhua Building.

If she appears, retreat and discuss matters again.

In a dilapidated mansion, the county magistrate looked at the "criminal evidence" of keeping private soldiers in the house, and his body was trembling. He nodded whatever Nalanjing said, but was speechless.

I think the most daring thing he ever did for a small seventh-grade county magistrate was to go to court to take action, then threw down a beheading token and shouted: "Behead him immediately."

Today, he wants to put a knife on his boss's head. He is so cowardly that he doesn't even believe it himself.

What's amazing is that although he was extremely frightened in his heart, his whole body was as light as if he had stepped on cotton - was this a prelude to his ascension to heaven?

Nalanjing is a woman, and Wanhua Tower is a place of fireworks. Even if she dresses up as a woman with fireworks, she can easily attract attention.

After thinking about it, Nalanjing changed into a set of men's clothes, drank another bottle of strong wine, his face turned red, and he entered Wanhua Tower drunkenly.

Soon a woman came out and supported her enthusiastically: "Master, why don't you take care of yourself so much? Wine is a good thing, but drinking too much is harmful to your health. I will help you go in and have a rest."

Nalanjing: "..."

Her chest was tightly wrapped, and it was basically difficult to see through her identity as a woman unless she worked hard.

At this moment, she leaned all over the woman, smelling her astounding rouge smell, resting her head on her shoulder, and sighed comfortably.

Rong Xuan's arms were stiff, but the arms of the girl from Wanhua Tower were soft and comfortable.
