The secret palace used the highest level of message transmission. On the evening of the second day after the assassination, Xu You, who was far away in Jinling, had already known about Yang and Hu's death.

This was at least one day and a night faster than the imperial court’s post station!

Zhan Wenjun suggested that he should directly ask the emperor to explain the situation, at least he had to withdraw himself from the mud first, then find a way to find out the inside story and the reasons, and give an explanation from all aspects.

Yu Daozhen held the opposite opinion. She believed that taking the initiative to find the emperor was to make it more obvious. Not only would it be useless, but it would also cause the people to be honest. Those who are clear will be clear. With Xu You and Luozhou, they will never be out of the matter. It would be better to remain silent and leave it to the Tingwei for investigation.

When it comes to controlling the court, Yu Daozhen was in the bureau and was naturally better. However, Xu You did not go to see the emperor in a panic, nor did he watch at home. Instead, after the court received the report, he wrote a letter openly, suggesting that the Menxia Province, the Tingwei Office and the Censorate jointly go to Kuragaki to investigate the assassination of the angel.

Before Xie Xiwen could think of how to connect Xu You in, receiving his letter was like eating a bite of shit, but he had to swallow it and express his agreement. He immediately ordered the three departments to draw elite soldiers and strong generals to Cangyuan.

The New Year is about to be celebrated, and everyone is unhappy with such a mess. The minister of the disciples said he was sick, Ting Ziling could not get rid of his body, and the chief censor Zhang Ji was even more unlikely to come forward to investigate Xu You's people. So in the end, the team led by Tingwei Zuo Ping Sun Xuan, led more than ten people from the three departments to set off for Cangyuan.

While they set out, Ye Min's apology was sent to Taicheng. He asked to remove the position of Luozhou Governor and General Zhenbei from the position of Luozhou. The emperor issued a kind word to comfort him, so that he could govern Luozhou with peace of mind, and ignore the rest of the matter, and the court still trusted him.

The rumors in the capital are like countless recurring events in history. Although they will be late, they will never be absent. Under the control of some people, they will gradually develop in a direction that is not conducive to Xu You. In view of this, Yu Daozhen personally took the initiative and used a large amount of manpower from the Secret Palace to soak up more incredible rumors, which directly stirred the water in the pool to turbidity.

Once there are too many absurd fake news, bad money drives out good money, quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and instead covers up those plausible and lethal rumors.

If someone mysteriously said that Xu You was resentful because he was exempted from the general by the court, and instructed people from Luozhou to assassinate the angels, someone would immediately say that you are all old Chen skin, and you are worthy of being stingy? Let me tell you, Xu You is actually a Xianbei person, and he is brothers with Yuanyu. Who was pregnant with Liujia and fell into Jiangdong, and how did he give birth to Xu You...

His eyes and nose were all there, just like he was a midwife. The man had awkwardly immediately, yes, he was dissatisfied with the court, is it worth talking about compared to the illegitimate son of the Yuan Dynasty?

Li Dunnu came to Xu's house in Changganli late at night. This time, he did not meet secretly, but to follow the secret order. After seeing Xu You, he conveyed the emperor's oral order. The refined key points are four sentences: My brother-in-law does not doubt you, the rumors in Jinling are all farts, and the matter in Luozhou can be found clearly, so you can rest with peace of mind.

After returning to the palace, the emperor asked Li Dunnu, how was the general in his mood? Li Dunnu's answer was very good.

I asked again: After listening to the oral order, will there be a reply?

Answer: The general did not speak, he knelt down and did not get up, and tears flowed all over his tears.

So the emperor stopped asking and summoned Xie Xiwen and Teng Ziling to quell the various rumors in the capital within three days. If they heard any attacks on Xu You, they would not do anything for both of them and go home to take care of their old age.

The rumors that had been making trouble for six days came to an abrupt end!

On December 30th, on New Year's Eve, heavy snow fell from the sky.

The prefecture of Xiangzhou is Linxiang County, located at the intersection of the Xiang River and the Yangtze River. Five mountains, one water and two parts of fields have been divided into two parts. Since ancient times, it has been known as the hometown of fish and rice.

As the largest grain merchant in Xiangzhou, Jiang Chengxian's life was quite happy to outsiders. Even though he was not as good as the royal relatives, he was just like the princes and marshals. He brushed malt sugar, burned firewood in white wax, and piled up fruits and vegetables in the courtyard. Before he could eat it, he became rotten and extravagant, and no one could reach it.

This is even more so on New Year's Eve. The whole house was brightly lit, singing and dancing, and drunk guards could be seen everywhere. Therefore, when Zhang Yuntu, the captain of Pingjiang Army, rushed in with a thousand brave soldiers, he almost encountered decent resistance. The entire Jiang clan, including the slave singer, was captured.

Zhang Huai was strict in his army. Although the Pingjiang Army did not have the strict military disciplines like Cuiyu Army and Chifeng Army, there was no common indiscriminate killing of innocent people and looting and humiliation during house searches.

Unfortunately, Jiang Chengxian is dead!

People who have been in six days must have all kinds of poisons that can be sealed with blood all year round. Even the in-properly arranged insiders did not have time to stop Jiang Chengxian from taking the poison. Then, a large number of letters and books of collusion with six days were found in the secret room of the house, confirming his crime.

Also arrested on that night, Cao Lan was a prominent family in Xiangzhou, not as good as the top family. He was also the second-class gentry. It was about the same as Gu Lu, Zhu and Zhang's status in Yangzhou. Zhang Huai had no courage to attack the entire Cao family. Fortunately, Cao Lan went to the Xingmushan villa outside Linxiang County for the New Year. The Xiangzhou chief clerk Qian Jin led two hundred elite troops to siege and killed more than 20 guards. When he broke in, Cao Lan sat alone to drink and said with a smile: "Master Qian, who is late?"

"Mr. Cao Langjun, now that things have come to this point, I will just leave you alone. You can only offer your remaining sins for six days, so you can protect your life and worry..."

"Hahaha!" Cao Lan laughed and said, "You have been fooled by human desires, trapped in fame, and confused by life and death. How can you know the great way for me to rejuvenate for six days?"

After saying that, just as he was about to drink poisoned wine, a master popped up his hidden weapon behind Qian Jin and hit Cao Lan's wrist. The wine glass fell to the ground. He rubbed his body upwards, slashed his neck with one palm, and suddenly fell into a coma.

Linzheng County.

Because it is located in the Xiang River, business travelers will stop here, and there is supply when there is demand. The largest brothel in Xiangzhou has gradually formed. The garden master Yan is beautiful and charming, and the girls he brought out are all cute and charming, and are very popular and loved by the many kind guests.

On New Year's Eve, the garden gate was closed as usual. There were fewer family reunion days. Although there were still some people, these people were only in the New Year. The girls were going to celebrate the New Year. Without a home and without the New Year, what's the point of living? So Aunt Yan closed the door to thank the guests, and the lights were decorated for a long time. Then she brought the New Year's Eve dinner. Everyone gathered around the fire, ate and chatted while staying up with the New Year, laughing and happy, and having fun.

After three rounds of wine, a girl who couldn't hold on to it fainted, and then another one, two, three... Aunt Yan, who noticed something was wrong, was about to shout for help, but her eyes turned dark, she was weak all over and sat down on the ground softly.

Mountain ghosts are colorless and tasteless, and cannot be guarded against!

This time, the Wenyu Department took action. Li Mu was becoming more and more skillful in doing these things. He was simply unaware of it. Even Aunt Yan, who was knowledgeable, also thought to him.

The arrest of Jiang Chengxian, Cao Lan and Aunt Yan completely cut off the channels for Fengdu Mountain to communicate with the outside world. Since the branches and leaves were cut off, the main trunk should be cut off.

Lingling County.

Ten miles east suburbs, there is a Banzhu Mountain with an altitude of more than 300 meters. The mountains are wide and the terrain is flat, which is most suitable for hiding soldiers. Xu You quietly appeared in the pavilion on the top of the mountain and met Zhang Huai who had been waiting for a long time.

"After separation, Jing Yi's charm remains unabated..."

"I've seen the general during the festival!"

Zhang Huai was wearing military uniform and saluted Xu You. This was what he learned from Cuiyu's army, and now it has become a common etiquette of the superiors and subordinates of the Pingjiang Army.

"Hey, I'm a retired person. Don't call me. General. We are old friends. Just call me Weizhi!"

"The affairs of the court are far away in Xiangzhou. I have never heard of them and I don't understand them very well." Zhang Huai said calmly: "But as a soldier, he also knows that there is only one general in Chu, and no one can replace him."

Xu You smiled, not caring too much about whether these words were true or not. Since Zhang Huai's ignorant warning to Xu You not to let Zhang Xuanji down, the two of them were destined to be true friends. However, what Xu You needed was to obey orders and people who could do things. It would not matter whether they would make friends or not.

He turned his head to introduce the girl standing beside him and said, "This is Zhenren Ning!"

Yuan Qingqi's plain clothes and cloth shoes, and his appearance became more and more beautiful and extraordinary. He was not as good as the world should have, but Zhang Huai could ignore it and said, "I have met Zhenren Ning!"

It’s not that he doesn’t love women, but as he grows older, he turns from gratitude and respect to Zhang Xuanji to an unknown admiration, and he can no longer tolerate others.

Yuan Qingqi said politely: "Look for a long time."

Xu You stopped talking nonsense and asked, "How are you prepared?"

"Stop doing everything!"

"I want to be foolproof!"

Zhang Huai paused and said firmly: "Nothing is wrong!"

"Okay, let's go!"

Xu You held his hands behind his back, stood in the pavilion, looked at the peaks of Ziyang Mountain in the distance, and said lightly: "Since the White Thieves Rebellion, it has been raging Jiangdong for more than ten years for six days... Tonight, it's time to settle the matter."

The Pingjiang Army dispatched a total of 3,000 troops. Xu You secretly brought 500 people from Jinling to his Guards. Yuan Qingqi, Qingming, Fang Sinian, Sha Sanqing, Hou Moyaming, Zhu Wuchen, Bai Yi, Zhu Xin and two fifth-rank young masters who were conquered in the secret palace over the years.

Zhu Xin brought a carefully made mask from Tiangongfang, with the pseudonym Guyu. No one knew his true identity except Xu You and Qingming.

This is to take into account the face of the court. Zhu Xin should be imprisoned in Fuchun's Zhu family. He was only given the kindness of Xu You's guidance when he was in Chang'an and was willing to serve under his command.

It was when he was using people that Xu You agreed. Another important reason was that Zhu Xin's martial arts must be improved in killing, otherwise he would not have stayed in Guanzhong for many years. If he was locked up at home, the martial arts would have come to an end.

The army passed by the city and rushed straight to Ziyang Mountain. Zhang Huai divided a general and brought 300 people to the county town, showed the sign of the governor's mansion, broke into the county government, followed the map to capture the county magistrate, the chief clerk and a group of clerks, and then closed the city gate.

After six days, the six heavenly palaces in Fengdu Mountain were built in Ziyang Mountain, all the officials in Lingling County could not escape. After Zhang Huai replaced Yu Ying as the governor of Xiangzhou, in order to prevent the attack on the snake, he did not touch the magistrate of Lingling County and asked him to continue to perform his duties. This time, he was able to find out how to use these worms who were scattering their flags!
