Chapter 391 Cunxi's Troubles
Chapter 391 Cunxi's Troubles
In the past, Yuan Qi was being hunted on the plains, and both Pi Xiu and Shi Xiong were killed.
He himself was also seriously injured.
At the critical moment, he entrusted the Iron Hand Group to five people.
As a "trusted minister", Yun Gu would naturally have to be promoted. After all, she had devoted herself to the country throughout the past two and a half years.
The heads of the first to fourth halls are all important ministers entrusted with the care of the young emperor, so it is naturally impossible to change them.
In this case, the only one who can make changes is Shi Xiong, the head of the Fifth Hall, who is in an extremely awkward position.
Shi Xiong thought that he would become a core member of the Iron Hand Group as soon as he joined the group, but suddenly the sky fell on him.
It seems that after being the head of the Fifth Hall for so long, he has to give up this position.
It's really infuriating...
Shi Xiong suddenly stood up and clasped his fists towards Yun Gu: "Please."
Yun Gu originally thought that Shi Xiong had been silent for a long time and was unwilling to do so.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually stood up and gave up his seat to her.
No wonder he was able to join the Iron Hand Group, this guy has a really nice personality.
OK.
Yun Gu and Shi Xiong happily exchanged positions.
Seeing that his orders were still so effective, Yuan Qi was immediately very satisfied with Long Feng Hu Yun and the others.
These people did not seize the right to speak when I was away, nor did they let their prestige dissipate among the hall masters. As expected, I should not doubt these good brothers.
"Everyone, is there anyone who is dissatisfied with his or her position?"
Yuan Qisheng was as fast as a galloping horse, and decided to use again the moves that he had used after recruiting Long Feng, Chen Yiqu and other masters.
The new hall masters who joined the Iron Hand Group looked at each other, especially Pixiu and Shixiong. Ambition flashed in their eyes, but they suppressed it.
Both of them are second-rate masters, but if they want to challenge first-rate masters or second-rate top masters, forget it.
Even if Bao Chong had a lame leg, they still couldn't deal with him.
Not to mention Qi Hai, it is said that he can kill Leopard Charge alone.
The hall masters just looked at each other, and finally put the matter aside and ignored it.
"It seems that everyone has no objection. Then, next, this sect leader will announce the unprecedented and great event that our Iron Hand Group is going to do!"
Yuan Qi stood up suddenly.
"This sect leader calls this the Han Canal Boat Capsize Case."
"After thinking about this matter many times, I finally figured out the rules."
"First, I need a large number of water ghosts..."
……
Three days later, Li Cunxi, who was still heading north, received a letter from Yangzhou.
The person who delivered the letter was sent by Tao Gan.
Li Cunxi skillfully opened the envelope, took out the letter and read it.
At this moment, everyone outside the carriage was staring at the person who delivered the letter, fearing that this person might do something bad to Li Cunxi.
After a long time, Li Cunxi opened the curtain and said lightly:
"Got it. Go back and tell Tao Gan to wait and see what happens. Don't do anything you shouldn't do before I give you my order."
The man clasped his fists and left in a hurry, already scared out of his wits.
Only after this person left did Li Cunxi sigh softly.
"Hey, brothers, my informant sent me a letter saying that the man who tried to assassinate me on the plains has reappeared in the underworld."
"This guy decided to make a big case and named it the Han Canal Boat Capsizing Case. He is so bold."
"But this guy has a special identity. If I don't have substantial evidence to kill him, then even if we kill him, we can only be considered a killer in the end."
Li Yuanfang and Hu Jinghui looked at each other.
They will never forget the assassination that took place on the plain.
You know, in a situation that should have been a massacre, a master whose strength was almost equal to theirs, single-handedly saved the situation that could almost be called a disaster.
With the siege of a thousand cavalrymen and the inner guards, and their two peerless masters in charge, only two of those people died in the end.
Now, that peerless master has returned, and the two of them can't wait to kill that peerless master.
"Cunxi, with your status as the prefect of Henan, can't we just convict this thief?"
Li Yuanfang asked curiously.
"It's difficult, almost impossible," Li Cunxi said. "If I were the governor of Henan, I could just accuse him of a crime, but I'm only the governor of Henan."
The status of the Henan Prefecture Governor, who was of the second rank, was higher than that of the Taiyuan Prefecture Governor and the Jingzhao Prefecture Governor, who were also of the second rank.
The reason is that the current Henan Prefecture is where the capital is located.
Only someone who is suspected to be the crown prince can become the governor of Henan Prefecture.
This unspoken rule in the Tang Dynasty became an unquestionable truth in later generations.
Whenever a member of the royal family becomes the governor of the capital, he is the crown prince without exception.
In the precarious Wu Zhou Dynasty, it was suspected that the crown prince convicted a king of a different surname. Isn't this too frivolous?
Li Yuanfang and Hu Jinghui, who were standing nearby, had already seen through the mystery and were immediately horrified.
Wu Yanhao carefully analyzed the reasons and asked quickly:
"The other party is the prince?"
Li Cunxi hummed and said calmly:
"Prince Ying Yuan Qi, descendant of Yuan Buji and successor of the Iron Hand Group."
"If such a person does not take the initiative to reveal his identity, all I can do to him is to exclude dissidents."
"And he probably doesn't know that I already know his identity. Even if he does, he will be fearless."
"As long as I don't have substantial evidence, I can't take him down."
Li Cunxi rubbed his hands and took a deep breath.
"It's getting a little cold, let's set off early and have a good rest when we get to the post station. Let's put this matter on hold for now and settle the Chongzhou issue first."
In the original novel, the Han Canal boat capsizing incident took place about four or five years later.
The most important thing at the moment is naturally the Chongzhou case. As long as Zhao Wenhui and Wang Xiaojie are rescued and Qiu Jing is eliminated, everything will be easy.
According to the information from Snake Spirit, Li Cunxi knew very well that Qiu Jing was a staunch supporter of Xiao Qingfang.
If one wants to save Wang Xiaojie and Zhao Wenhui, then Qiu Jing will definitely die.
There is also the deceived former Khitan general Li Kaigu. This guy's brain isn't very useful and he can be easily used as a gun. If he is fooled by Qiu Jing's grandson, I'm afraid he will have to get angry with Wang Xiaojie again.
Li Cunxi rubbed his temples in the carriage. Facing a powerful enemy, he had to think about the specific actions of this trip.
"What are you thinking about?"
Wu Yanhao returned the letter to Li Cunxi and leaned back.
"I'm thinking about what I should do to protect everyone I want to protect." Li Cunxi did not hide it.
"It's the Grand Chamberlain, right?" Wu Yanhao smiled. "But, between the Grand General and the Governor of Yingzhou, and the Grand Chamberlain, would you choose the first two, or the Grand Chamberlain alone?"
"Yes, we can only save one side." Li Cunxi rubbed his temple.
