Chapter 466 Longxubo [ask for monthly ticket! ]
"Why?" Liang Yue frowned slightly.
He came here and spent so much effort just to find Zhao Faxian. Now that he is here and the truth has been revealed, is there any reason why he can't show up?
"Because I still have no way to prove that those things are fake." Zhao Faxian sighed, "The handwriting, seals, and messages on those letters are all real. If I don't find Yu Niang, I will have no way to defend myself."
Liang Yue immediately understood his predicament.
Bashan Chunyu Fu's move was indeed ruthless. He spent several years to manage Zhao Faxian, which seemed to have nothing to do with Bashan.
But following him can frame Liang Fuguo and solve the crisis of Yihuo Sect in Yunlu City. If Zhao Fa was not rescued first and Liang Yue was the successor, it might be easier for them to take over Nanzhou Military Town if Yihuo Sect was allowed to develop for a while.
No matter who sent those letters, as long as it cannot be proven that they are fake, Zhao Faxian will be suspected by the court and he will never be able to return to officialdom.
Even if Liang Fuguo could be reinstated, his reputation would still be hit.
After thinking for a moment, Liang Yue spoke again: "I'll think of a way."
"You also have a way to do this?" Zhao Faxian was stunned.
No matter how many ways he had in Yunlu City, he was still helpless against Bashan, which was thousands of miles away. Even Liang Fuguo could hardly have any influence on Bashan.
But this young man said he had a way?
Liang Yue smiled and said, "I have some connections in Bashan."
"Hmm?" Zhao Faxian's expression became a little strange, and the prison officer's vigilance was raised all of a sudden. "When you were kidnapped by Bashan before, you didn't reach any deal with them, right?"
"Don't get me wrong, I definitely didn't collude with the rebel Bashan." Liang Yue explained with a smile, "I did help him a little when I was arrested before."
"No deal, just one-sided help, right?" Zhao Faxian frowned.
"Hey, why am I telling you so much?" Liang Yue waved his hand, "Anyway, if you want to meet someone, I'll help you try. If you don't want to, forget it."
"Don't." Zhao Faxian's expression softened. "Master Liang, I'm sorry to bother you with this matter. It doesn't matter whether Zhao can show up or be punished. I just hope that I can't judge people well and won't affect Master Liang."
After the two men finished their conversation and the prince finished his words, the charges were read out and they were beheaded one by one.
After the Yihuo Sect completely defected, those who had once sheltered the sect were charged with even more crimes, and combined with the crimes discovered in recent days, almost none of the three major families were spared.
From now on, the Qi family, Zhou family and Wei family in Yunlu City will become history.
The three great families thought they had absolute power in Yunlu City and that ordinary people were just ants. But in front of the real power, they were just a group of slightly larger insects.
There were continuous cracking sounds, blood spurted into the sky, and heads fell to the ground.
Liang Yue was looking out the window upstairs when he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
He walked downstairs, came to the man, and whispered: "I'm sorry, I haven't told you what I did these days, because I don't know what you think."
The person in front of him was wearing a monk's robe and had elegant features. It was Zhou Xuanci.
As a direct descendant of the Zhou family, he entered Buddhism since childhood and was considered an upright person, so he was not involved in these matters.
But those who were beheaded today were all his closest blood relatives.
During this period, there was a lot of noise about fighting against the aristocratic families. Zhou Xuanci and Liang Yue were relatively familiar with each other, but he never pleaded for any of his family's relatives or friends. I think he knew what the right position was.
"Amitabha." Zhou Xuanci chanted the Buddha's name and said, "After all, my identity is sensitive. You didn't tell me for my own good. The Qingdu family has been bullying all these years. Now they have received the punishment they deserve. It can be said that they died a worthy death. I probably can't continue to work in the Evil Execution Division in the future. It's a good time to return to the mountains and practice meditation and concentrate on cultivation."
It was good that he was not implicated in such a serious crime committed by his family. It was impossible for him to work for the imperial court. If he was seeking revenge or trying to overturn the verdict on his family, it would easily lead to disaster.
"That's good." Liang Yue nodded and said, "Maybe I can make a breakthrough in my practice." "I heard that Wei Shili went to the Divine Capital to seek refuge with Wei Kangnian. If we meet them in Longyuan City in the future, please ask Liang Xianguan to take care of them." Zhou Xuanci continued.
"I will." Liang Yue nodded again.
The execution was over, and Zhou Xuanci had seen off his last journey. He waved his hand, turned around and left. His back looked a little vicissitudes in the crowd, and the sound of his recitation could be heard in the wind.
"When prosperity fades, it is nothing but dust; when worldly affairs are over, it is better to go with the wind."
"What's the use of a thousand years..."
……
After saying goodbye to Zhou Xuanci, Liang Yue returned to the Criminal Justice Department to reunite with the prince.
The prince was sitting in the lobby, still somewhat excited, his chubby hands still shaking. When he saw Liang Yue coming back, he excitedly said, "This is the first time I have this...feeling."
He wanted to say that this was the first time he felt loved like this, but when the words came to his lips, he felt something was wrong, so he took back a few words.
He had just killed the powerful and influential people in the spotlight of the public. The scorching gaze made him dazed for a moment. Only then did he understand the significance of holding power.
No matter how much wealth and honor you seek for yourself, it is all fake. If you can get the recognition of so many people, it is more exciting than any enjoyment.
"As long as the prince cares about the people of the world, there will be plenty of opportunities like this in the future." Liang Yue said with a smile.
"Oh, right." The prince came out of his immersion and said immediately, "Just now the imperial decree came through, and the reward for your great achievement has come down. Guess what it is?"
"Reward?" Liang Yue pondered, "Gold, jade, jewelry, elixirs, and magical instruments are all there, of course. I don't think I'll get an official position. I don't have a regular position in the court, so I can't get promoted even if I want to. Immortal officials who move up to higher positions will be on par with Master Chen, so I don't think it's possible... I won't be given a title, will I? Baron? It can't be Viscount, right?"
"The idea is correct, but not bold enough." The prince smiled mysteriously, "Father has issued an order to confer you the title of Longxu Bo! There will be a ceremony to confer the title when we return to the Divine Capital."
"Count?" Liang Yue was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that there would be such a big deal.
Apart from the title of king which can only be conferred by the royal family, the other five ranks of nobility, duke, marquis, earl, viscount and baron, have been rarely awarded in the past decade or so.
Even a man as accomplished in battle as the military god Tang Wei was only the Marquis of Bashan.
Although he had made great contributions in both Frost North City and Yunlu City, it could not be said that he had expanded the territory. If it was reasonable to confer a baron title, it would be barely acceptable to jump directly to Viscount.
But he started as an earl right from the start, and this reward was even greater than many of his military merits in the Northwest War.
Why is Emperor Mu Bei so generous?
and many more……
Liang Yue seemed to realize something suddenly, and became suspicious. Could it be that the old emperor really thought he was going to die?
That's why he gave himself an extraordinary reward at this time, thinking that it wouldn't be long before he would be gone anyway.
But family members know their own business, and only Liang Yue knows how healthy he is now. He eats well, sleeps well, and can eat several large bowls of rice in one meal.
Add to that the events in Yunlu City, and the atmosphere is even more...
If I suddenly don’t die at that time, wouldn’t that disappoint a lot of people?
The prince looked at Liang Yue's stunned expression and asked, "Why do you seem unhappy?"
Liang Yue smiled faintly, "I am...terrified."
