Shenwu Batian Jue

Chapter 247 Negotiation
The Gao family has a lot of evil deeds. Zhong Zheng has been doing his best to investigate for many years, but unfortunately he failed to find any direct evidence. He can only watch golf play with power and bring disaster to the country and the people.

The ledger brought by Su Yan is the ironclad proof that the Gao family embezzled the emperor's rations!Every account recorded above is evidence that Gao Zhe sold the relief supplies to fill his own pockets!

Zhong Zheng was flipping through it carefully, his face gradually became ugly and full of shock!
"That Gao Zhe is a beast!" Zhong Zheng closed the ledger, his face livid, and said angrily, "The emperor sent people to Xuanzhou to relieve the disaster. Golf recommended his son Gao Zhe to go in the court hall. At that time, the truth knew that they must have ulterior motives. But the truth I still underestimated the greed and the bottom line of the Gao family. Not only did they embezzle the imperial food, but they also wantonly robbed the people of Xuanzhou, which is full of starvation, it is really unconscionable!"
"Golf let Gao Zhe do this?" The three guards were also shocked, "Now there are millions of starving people in Xuanzhou City, and they took the opportunity to make money for the country, and they actually squeezed the people!"

"The Gao family is a cancer, it must be pulled out, otherwise the Qin Dan Dynasty may have to change soon." Su Yan expressed his opinion without hesitation, looking at the account book in the right hand, said: "I don't know that Prime Minister Zhong How are you going to use this ledger?"
Zhong Zheng was pondering, as if he was thinking about something. The guard next to him, Wang Tie, took up Su Yan's topic: "Of course, I will hand it over to the emperor immediately. The evidence will be solid at that time. Let's see how the Gao family can argue!"

"Wang Tie, you think things are too simple." Zhong Zheng shook his head solemnly... If the Gao family is so easy to deal with, how can we not gain anything in the coming years? "
"But... Now that we have the accounts provided by Brother Su, which are clearly written in black and white, how can the Gao family deny them? At that time, the emperor will definitely not let them go. Embezzling the emperor's rations for disaster relief is a serious crime that kills your head." !"

Zhong Zheng took a deep look at Wang Tie, and raised the ledger in his hand: "Wang Shiwei, do you think this ledger can bring down the Gao family?"
"Prime Minister Zhong is right. The account book I provided is not enough to bring down the Gao family, at most it can only kill Gao Zhe."
"It seems that Su Yishi thinks about the same as the truth." Zhong Zheng looked at the three guards who were still a little dazed, and said: "The accounts recorded in the ledger are all done by Gao Zhe alone. Golf is in Wangcheng, he is completely You don’t have to admit it, but at that time, you will definitely separate yourself from Gao Zhe. For the sake of the overall situation, you will even take the act of "killing relatives with righteousness" in order to silence everyone and prevent the emperor from condemning him again."
"Now the officials of the Manchu Dynasty are almost on the side of golf. There are many people defending him. In addition, Concubine Li Gui can't do anything to him in the end! In this way, we will startle the snake and make the Gao family more defensive , it will be even more difficult to find their evidence in the future.”
"This..." Wang Tie and the other three guards showed anxiety on their faces, and said, "Master Xiang, what do you think we should do? Now that we finally have evidence about the Gao family's disadvantage, do we have to keep this ledger on the table?" Prime Minister?"
"Brother Wang, don't worry, I believe that Prime Minister Zhong already has a plan in mind." Su Yan smiled, and then said: "The Gao family is too powerful, if they can't be completely brought down at once, they will definitely be backlashed by them." , then the outcome will be out of our control.”
"Su Yishi's words are reasonable, and he is very thoughtful." Zhong Zheng looked at Wang Tie and the other three guards with some displeasure, and said, "Wang Guard, you have been officials for many years, but you still haven't been able to see clearly what's in it. It’s a powerful relationship. You can’t just do things with enthusiasm, impulsiveness will bring endless troubles to yourself and others.”
"Master Xiang taught me a lesson, Wang Tie knows."
"Okay, you all sit down, let's talk about dealing with the Gao family." Zhong Zheng returned to his seat in the hall and sat down, his eyes shifted to Su Yan, and he said with a smile: "Want to come to Su Yishi to come here?" Is that the purpose of coming?"
"Prime Minister Zhong has sharp eyes and can see through my mind. Prime Minister, please don't call me a righteous man, just call me by his name."
"Well, I'll call you Su Yan for the truth." Zhong Zheng nodded, and then said: "The situation is not optimistic for us now. The strength of the Gao family has reached an unimaginable level. The emperor in the government has a sense of crisis. The emperor has privately summoned the real minister to talk about the Gao family, but it is impossible to check and balance the Gao family's power in a short time."
"I don't know what the emperor's plan is?" Su Yan asked.

Zhong Zheng's expression was slightly concentrated: "The emperor wants to weaken the power of golf. But this is too difficult, and it is by no means easy to do. Now the court, generals and officials can clearly see the current situation, knowing that the power of golf is in the hands of the government and the public. Most people follow his lead. Under such circumstances, no one dares to express their attitude, and almost all remain neutral."
Su Yan was stunned: "So there is no one available around the emperor? However, it is impossible for the huge Qindan Dynasty to be completely controlled by the Gao family. There will always be some people who are willing to take this opportunity to make contributions."
"Now the emperor still has a few confidantes, and there are also a group of dead shadow guards in secret. It is because of the existence of these shadow guards that golf will be afraid, otherwise I am afraid it would have been long ago..."
"Prime Minister Zhong, what does it mean that golf is already showing signs of finding a position?"
"Based on what he's done in recent years, it should."
"I don't know how many imperial guards there are in the royal city, and how many can be used by the emperor?"
"There are 20 imperial guards in the royal city, and 50 total including the guarding army. However, among these troops, only a small half of the imperial guards can be used to defend the palace, and the rest of the military power is in the hands of golf."
Su Yan's heart sank slightly, and he said, "So, if Golf wants to, he can enter the palace at any time?"
"That's not the case, he is also afraid." Zhong Zheng's eyes flashed a cold light: "The commander of the shadow guards in the palace is the person he fears the most. If Golf is worried about attacking the palace, the blood smear may be hidden in the dark. It was a fatal blow, so I have been holding back."
Su Yan became interested, and asked, "What kind of person is this shadow guard commander, Xue Tu, who makes golf so afraid?"

"Brother Su, you don't know that Lord Xueshui is so famous that even the emperor respects him three points!" Wang Tie seemed very excited, and before Zhong Zheng could speak, he rushed to say: "The history of Lord Xueshui It is extremely mysterious, and so far I have not known his experience before he became the commander of the shadow guard. A hundred years ago, a mysterious force suddenly sent a large number of strong men to sneak into the palace to assassinate the emperor. Headquarters, with the blood blade in their hands, slaughtered that mysterious force without any damage. And in that mysterious force, there are countless warriors at the Condensing Sea Realm, and dozens of strong men at the Opening Heaven Realm. During the night, they all died under the blade of Lord Bloodstain!"
"Hundreds of years ago, he was able to kill dozens of powerhouses at the Open Heaven Realm. Doesn't it mean that his current realm has surpassed the Open Heaven Realm?" Su Yan was shocked, and Natalya beside him was also shocked.

Su Yan has never met a martial artist above the Open Heaven Realm, and he still doesn't know what kind of realm that is.

"Whether the blood smear has surpassed the open sky realm, the truth is not clear. But the truth knows that even golf with unfathomable strength is definitely not his opponent, and he doesn't even have the confidence to survive in front of him, otherwise Golf has long been overwhelmed."
Su Yan suddenly smiled: "There is such a person, it seems that as long as you don't push golf into a hurry, he won't do it. This just gives us a buffer time. I don't know if the prime minister has thought about it. How big a city is, and the defenders add up to millions, enough to crush high-ranking thieves."
"It's difficult. Even if some city lords are loyal to the dynasty, if they lead troops, the target is too big, and they will definitely be discovered by the soldiers defending the city. When the defensive formation is activated, it will be difficult for the outside troops to attack. And once When such a situation arises, Golf will inevitably lead his troops into the palace with the idea of ​​succumbing to death. At that time, even if he is afraid of blood, he will choose the last fight."
"Prime Minister Zhong, it is almost impossible to find evidence of the Gao family's treason. The Prime Minister knows golf best. He can plan these things and will never leave any evidence about it. Therefore, we must let him expose himself Come out and kill him when he feels he has the absolute advantage. Because at that time, he is the most lax."
"Su Yan, what do you mean to stimulate Golf to openly rebel and lead troops into the palace?"

"Yes, that's the only way to catch them all."
"No! Now let's not talk about the hundreds of thousands of guards in the city. We only say that three of the four commanders who commanded 20 guards were bought by Golf. That is to say, the emperor can only mobilize 15 guards, and Golf We can mobilize [-] imperial guards. Only in this aspect, we are absolutely weak. With the powerful warriors in Qishi Mansion and the guards of the royal city, we have no chance of winning!"

"According to what the prime minister said, there is indeed no chance of winning. But if two of the commanders of the Imperial Guard who were bribed by Golf turned against each other at a critical moment, then the situation would be different."
"It still doesn't work. Even if there are 15 imperial guards, once the golf mobilizes 30 defenders, they will be able to enter the palace in less than half an hour. And how can we make those commanders defect temporarily?"
"It's simple, just replace the emperor's confidantes, and the generals guarding the city will also be replaced by the emperor's confidants. This way, you can also put King Qin's army into the royal city, and you can also see how many city lords and confidants there will be at that time." Together with golf, we can clean it up at once and pull out all the cancerous tumors."
The three guards looked at Su Yan blankly, while Zhong Zheng was thinking, his eyes gradually showed a strange light, and said: "Su Yan, you have already thought of a way?"

"Yes, as long as you can kill those commanders of the imperial guards, I have a way to make the emperor's confidants look like those commanders who died. As long as you don't have too much contact with strong people like golf, it shouldn't be too much. Flaws were seen."
"This is easy to handle. Almost all the three commanders of the imperial guards are in the palace, and every meeting is always fixed by a certain commander to meet with Golf. As long as the commander is not killed, Golf will not be able to see the flaws. However, Ben The Prime Minister really wants to know how you can make others pretend to be the commander of the Imperial Guard perfectly?"

"I just happen to know a little bit about shape-changing techniques, Prime Minister, please take a look." Su Yan said, the muscles on his face squirmed quickly, and the muscles and bones on his body also made crackling sounds, and he changed into Wang Tie's appearance in a short while, Zhong Zheng, Wang Tie and other guards were dumbfounded.

"There is such a miraculous art of changing appearance. By changing the facial muscles and body bones to achieve the appearance and body shape to be changed, it is better than the Yirong art known by Ren Zhenxiang. As long as it is not a strong soul condensed It is almost impossible to see the clues!"

"Brother Su, you look like this so I can't tell whether you are me or I am myself..." Wang Tie walked up to Su Yan and looked up, down, left, and right, and found that Su Yan even imitated his breath. They are so similar that even he himself can hardly tell them apart, so he can't help but be amazed.

"This is the thaumaturgy passed down to me by my master. It should not be easily passed on to others. But the current situation seems to have no other way but this. At that time, the prime minister can ask the emperor to select a few shrewd and thoughtful thaumaturgy Your confidants will play these roles."
