Chapter 227 Brother Mang’s Ambition (Please subscribe, please vote!)
"Just within a day or two." The bull demon answered mechanically.
"When you arrive in the capital, where will you stay?" Xiao Ran asked again.
"I'll arrange it for them."
The Forbidden Spirit Technique flashes, reaching the limit of collapse and can explode at any time.
I can also ask one last question.
Think for a moment.
Xiao Ran asked the key point, "How to contact them?"
"We, the Niu Demon Clan, have a secret method. As long as we are not far apart, we can use the secret method to sense the presence of the other party. Under the prerequisite, the other party does not hide his aura." The Niu Demon said.
Bang!
After answering this question, his head exploded at this moment.
The headless body fell to the ground.
Cut with a wave of your hand.
A sword energy fell and destroyed his body.
At this time, Shen Yiming came with people from inside and stopped beside Xiao Ran.
"Jiang Ming is not here!"
"What's going on?" Xiao Ran frowned.
"According to the people below, he took people out of the mansion just now and seemed to be going to the second prince."
"Is it possible that the second prince was also involved in this matter?"
"Hard to say!" Shen Yiming shook his head.
"Without understanding their motives, just guessing is of no use."
"You interrogate them on the spot now and pry open their mouths!" Xiao Ran said.
"You want to go to the Second Prince?"
"No matter who is involved in this case, we will strictly investigate it to the end."
"Let the Taoist priests interrogate you, and I will go with you."
"No!" Xiao Ran refused.
"The Jiang family has spent so much effort to secretly arrest these little girls and dig out their hearts. There must be hidden secrets! No matter how secretive Jiang Ming is, a little bit of news will be exposed."
"Okay! Then be careful." Shen Yiming reminded.
"Yes." Xiao Ran responded.
Looking at the men and horses of the Divine Sword Guard.
"Follow me!"
"Uncle Xiao, let's go there with you." Gu Qiuhe said anxiously.
"No need!" Xiao Ran said.
"The things here have not been resolved yet. You stay here, pry open their mouths as soon as possible, and find out the truth about this matter. I will take people to the second prince's place to arrest Jiang Ming! If you have any news here, immediately Notify me."
Speaking of which.
The eyes became cold.
"If it really involves him, then take him down as well."
Seeing Xiao Ran say this, Gu Qiuhe and the others did not persist.
More than two hundred people with the Divine Sword Guard left Jiang Mansion. Before they could leave, the sound of horse hooves sounded again.
The leader was a middle-aged general, riding a Zhaoye dragon horse and coming with three thousand soldiers and horses.
Judging from their attire, they are also members of the Fifth City Defense Department.
Seeing Xiao Ran's group, the middle-aged general stopped and ordered with a cold face, "Surround this place. Don't let a fly go without my order!"
Three thousand soldiers rushed forward quickly, surrounding Xiao Ran and the others with Jiang Mansion as the center.
Hearing the noise outside, Shen Yiming and others asked people to guard Jiang Mansion, and they also rushed out.
Standing next to Xiao Ran, he looked at the middle-aged general coldly.
Gu Qiuhe had already recognized him. He took a step forward and shouted coldly, "Ma Kui, what are you doing?"
The middle-aged general is called Ma Kui.
Looking at him, I felt panicked and secretly wondered why Gu Qiuhe was here?
But he is from the Jiang family. At this moment, the Jiang family is in trouble and is surrounded by them. He cannot stand by and watch.
If not.
Even if Xiao Ran lets him go, the Jiang family has many ways to deal with him.
The simplest and crudest one is that as long as the evidence of his secret corruption and bribery is handed over, he will not be able to get away with it.
This is also the reason why he immediately brought people over after seeing the signal flare.
"This general received a report that someone committed the following crime and secretly led troops to siege Jiang Mansion. They came to surround and kill Xiao Xiao!" Ma Kui said.
"Master Gu, you'd better take the people away now. I'll pretend you've never met me before. If you insist on staying here, don't blame me for being rude."
"Here is the token from the Minister of War. I am ordering you to take your troops and leave quickly!" Gu Qiuhe took out his father's token.
Ma Kui sneered, already at this point his face was broken.
In this case, let's do it more simply.
"Unless it is Mr. Gu himself, I have the right to suspect you of stealing the token privately."
"People are doing it, God is watching, don't make yourself uncomfortable."
"Go away! Otherwise, I will take you down as well." Ma Kui scolded.
The soldiers and horses he brought flicked their spears, and the cold tip pointed coldly at Xiao Ran and others.
As for Xiao Ran.
The Shenjian Guards, Ji Shenmen, and the five city defense troops brought by Gu Qiuhe, plus the police officers brought by Bai Zhanyu, faced them coldly.
The war is about to break out.
Xiao Ran patted his shoulder and motioned for him to step back.
Looking at Ma Kui.
"Jiang Wudao released the flare just now to call you, right?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about!" Ma Kui objected.
"Who do you think you are when the Divine Sword Guard and the Ji Shen Sect are handling cases? How dare you intervene? Not to mention you, even if you are the head, you don't dare to point fingers in front of us." Xiao Ran said with a cold face. .
"It's our duty, there's nothing we dare to do!" Ma Kui refused to take a step back.
"I now suspect that you are a remnant of the Jiang family and participated in the "heart-breaking" case." At this point, Xiao Ran's eyes were cold.
One step.
He disappeared from the spot and appeared directly in front of Ma Kui.
Grabbing him by the neck, he roughly pulled him off Zhao Yelong's horse and slammed him to the ground.
"Ah!" The sudden scene caught Ma Kui off guard, causing him to cry out in pain.
He did not expect that Xiao Ran would do it as soon as he said so.
Just when he was about to give the order for the people he brought to take action, Xiao Ran stepped down and landed on his face. The huge force knocked him out.
Looking at the soldiers who were about to move, he said indifferently.
"Put down your weapons!"
The sound turned into a sonic boom, like a huge tornado, sweeping over them.
All the weapons fell to the ground instantly, and even they were knocked over and couldn't get up for a long time.
"I'll leave this to you." Xiao Ran said.
"Don't worry! We are here." Shen Yiming said.
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded.
The people with the Divine Sword Guard rushed towards Xuanwufang.
After they left.
Shen Yiming was not idle either. He took a step forward, sealed Ma Kui's Pipa bone, and ordered him to be taken down for torture and interrogation. As for the soldiers he brought, they were all handed over to Gu Qiuhe.
A heavy punishment awaits them.
For a while.
Xiao Ran and his men stopped at No. 18 Xuanwufang.
When the leading guard saw the Divine Sword Guard coming, he took a step forward, looked at Xiao Ran, and said respectfully, "May I ask your surname, sir?"
"Xiao Ran!"
"Master Xiao came just in time. Following His Highness' orders, my subordinates are preparing to take people to the Divine Sword Guard."
Xiao Ran looked at him calmly and waited for the next step.
"Bring the people up." The leader of the guards clapped his hands.
Four guards quickly walked out and placed the two corpses on the ground.
Xiao Ran didn't know them, but he guessed something in his heart.
I saw him pointing to the bodies of the two people and introducing, "The man's name is Jiang, and the woman is his sister Jiang Fei. She was executed on the spot just now when she tried to stab His Highness."
Paused.
"If Mr. Xiao has any doubts, I can take you to see His Highness."
Looking at the two headless corpses, Xiao Ran wondered, "A coincidence or murder?"
Looking at this guard.
"Take me in."
"Please come in!" The guard made an inviting gesture.
Take the people and enter the second prince's residence.
Arrived at the backyard.
Xiao Ran only brought twenty people and did not bring more people in.
I am getting more and more puzzled, how did I get here?
Soon.
The guards took him and stopped outside a palace.
The entrance is heavily guarded, with a large number of guards and strong men standing there, protecting the place airtight.
"Don't be offended, Mr. Xiao. His Highness was assassinated and seriously injured. This is the only way to prevent another accident."
Step forward.
He stopped at the palace gate and respectfully asked for instructions inside, "Your Highness! Master Xiao Ranxiao, the Divine Sword Guard, is here."
The palace door opens from the inside.
A beautiful woman in a green shirt opened the palace door.
"Step back!" the woman in green shirt said.
With no doubt.
The leader of the guards bowed respectfully and then left.
My eyes fell on Xiao Ran, her red lips parted slightly, "Introduce yourself, my surname is Gu, and my name is only one word."
"Xiao Ran." Xiao Ran's short words were shocking.
"Please!" Gu Ying made a gesture of invitation.
Enter the palace.
Under her leadership, they stopped at the bed.
On the bed.
The second prince was unconscious, with a circle of gauze wrapped around his chest, surrounding his whole body, and red blood seeping out, looking miserable.
Gu Ying introduced, "We did not expect that Jiang Ming was so ambitious that he secretly captured little girls and took out their hearts. When this was exposed, he was afraid of being caught by you, so he asked His Highness to help him."
The look on his face changed and he became righteous.
"But who is His Highness? The current second prince has acted openly and aboveboard throughout his life, never oppressed good people, and has the people at heart. How can he agree to him? Don't say that he is Jiang Fei's eldest brother. Even if he goes further, His Highness will not Will shrink back."
When he said this, his face showed anger and he clenched his jade hands.
"But this beast was completely crazy. In order to force His Highness to take action, he actually attacked His Highness! Fortunately, the guards in the palace fought hard to protect him and killed him, bringing peace to the world and justice to the innocent girls who died. . Unexpectedly, Concubine Jiang saw this scene, and while she was resting at night, she stabbed His Highness and almost killed His Highness!"
Tears flowed down and wet the clothes on her chest.
Xiao Ran listened quietly and did not make any remarks.
Secretly, he used "Ling Qing Ming Mu".
Look at the second prince again.
The wound on his chest is indeed very serious, almost going deep into his internal organs. If he takes a step further, even if it cannot kill him, it will still severely injure him and leave indelible hidden wounds.
I was confused, "It's really not him?"
But this is all too much of a coincidence, right? In all coincidences, there must be a ghost in them.
"The Skynet is sparse and not leaking out." Xiao Ran said.
Look away.
"I will take their bodies back."
"Yeah." Gu Ying nodded.
Having someone send Xiao Ran out of the house, he returned only after seeing his figure disappear.
In the bedroom.
Gu Ying walked to the bed, took out a pill, and fed it to the second prince. After a few breaths, the second prince opened his eyes and leaned on the bedside with her support.
"Are you leaving?"
"Gone."
"How did my performance go?" The second prince said proudly.
"We should hide it from him." Gu Ying thought for a while and said.
"They moved too fast. If Jiang Ming hadn't come to report, they would have almost found out about this prince. If Jiang Ming had fallen into their hands, this prince would have been in real trouble this time. ”
Looking at her.
Holding her jade hand, "After some time, when my father wakes up, I will tell my father to marry you as my concubine."
"Everything is at the discretion of His Highness." Gu Ying said.
The two of them had a tacit understanding.
Everyone knows what they want. The mysterious force that the second prince secretly comes into contact with is the Gu family. The Gu family has contact with the second prince and even hooks up with the eldest daughter of his direct family. Naturally, the plot is not small.
In this matter.
The Jiang family, including Jiang Ming and Jiang Fei, are just victims of the exchange of interests.
For those in power, they lose their use value and will only end up being abandoned.
However.
The second prince did even more ruthlessly and wiped out the Jiang family in one fell swoop.
Leaved the mansion.
The Divine Sword Guards outside came forward, and a Purple Sword Guard said, "Sir, what did the Second Prince say?"
"Go back first." Xiao Ran shook his head.
Still at the gate, this is not the place to talk.
Leave with their headless bodies.
On the road.
Xiao Ran simply explained, "On the surface, there seems to be nothing suspicious, and everything can be explained. But the more so, the greater the mystery hidden in it."
"That..."
"There is no evidence." Xiao Ran said.
Take them back to the Excalibur Guard.
Shen Yiming and others have also returned.
In the room.
A group of people were sitting around the table, including Gu Qiuhe and others.
"What's going on over there?" Shen Yiming asked.
"Dead." Xiao Ran said.
He briefly explained the situation.
Finish listening.
Everyone took a breath, and Gu Qiuhe was the first to speak, "Are you afraid that you will be silenced?"
"Whether he was silenced or not, our actions were a step too slow and we did not catch Jiang Ming. Even if he did it, there is no proof, not even a bit of evidence, and it has to end here. Unless, we can find other people. Evidence." Xiao Ran said.
Looking at Shen Yiming.
"How did the Jiang family's interrogation go?"
"I have used all kinds of severe punishments, but I don't know. It seems that Jiang Ming is acting without telling everyone. Even the people involved in this matter died in your hands." Shen Yiming said.
"Let people watch secretly to see if they can get any more information."
"Yeah." Shen Yiming agreed.
Shen Yiming handed over a document, and Xiao Ran opened it. It recorded the process of this operation in great detail. This was a necessary step.
They made too much noise this time. This matter must be reported. It cannot be hidden.
Moreover.
They have no intention of hiding it.
Take the pen, sign your name on it, and hand the document over.
"Although no evidence was obtained, it was not that nothing was found. Nearly 30 million taels were copied from the Jiang Mansion, plus other precious antique calligraphy, paintings, jewelry, etc. We kept 30% of this money and gave another sum as gifts. Give the remaining money to the families of the dead girls," Shen Yiming said.
We are referring to Xiao Ran, Shen Yiming, Taoist Master Xuanyang, Gu Qiuhe and Shi Ming, plus Bai Zhanyu.
A few of them will take one share, and the remaining share will be divided among the people below.
They eat meat. The people below have worked hard all night and are still doing things with their heads high, so they must drink some soup.
"What to do with the Jiang family?" Xiao Ran asked.
"He has been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. When our documents are sent up, there will be a result after the discussion between Sangong and Liubu Shangshu and others tomorrow." Shen Yiming said.
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded.
Looking at Gu Qiuhe and Shi Ming, "It's getting late, go back quickly with the banknotes."
"Uncle Xiao (Brother Xiao), let's go." The two said.
Taoist Master Xuanyang also stood up, "I have gone back, too."
After they left, only Xiao Ran and three others were left in the room.
"Help me investigate a person." Xiao Ran said.
"I knew you had something to say." Shen Yiming took the teapot, poured three cups, and placed them in front of them.
Take a sip of tea and ask.
"Who?"
"Ancient shadow."
"Who is she?"
"The people around the second prince seem to have his trust." Xiao Ran said.
"You doubt her..." Shen Yiming didn't say anything else, but he understood everything.
"Intuition." Xiao Ran pointed to his heart.
Poof!
The tea that Shen Yiming just drank immediately spurted out, and he glared at him angrily, "I've only heard of straight men, not intuitive ones."
"Have all Xiao Zhou's training resources been obtained?" Xiao Ran changed the topic.
"That batch of banknotes has been used up, and the cultivation resources are in place and can be used at any time." Shen Yiming said.
His eyes fell on Xiao Zhou.
"What are you going to do with him?"
"Starting from tomorrow, let him stay in purgatory and let Yang Pingan train him specially. With the help of this batch of cultivation resources, it will not take long for him to improve his cultivation level."
"This is a good idea." Shen Yiming nodded.
Xiao Zhou remained silent throughout the whole process. What happened this time made him understand that once he encounters danger without the strength, he won’t even have the ability to protect himself, let alone protect others.
Standing up from the chair, Xiao Ran said, "We are going back."
"Are you together?" Shen Yiming was surprised.
"Yes." Xiao Ran responded.
"In order to find him, I asked some beggars for help. They are still in Zuixianyuan and have to go there."
"Okay." Shen Yiming said.
Take Xiao Zhou out of the Divine Sword Guard and rush towards Zuixianyuan.
As the page of the Golden Book of Creation opened, the reward was finalized, revealing sixteen things.
Among them, the Jiang family has contributed a lot, which has surpassed Jiang Wudao and Niu Yao.
It seems that the higher the status, the better things you get.
On the road.
Xiao Zhou raised his head and summoned up the courage to say, "Brother Xiao, don't worry, I will practice hard this time and I will never let you down again."
"After entering purgatory, even if you want to be lazy, you have to ask Yang Pingan if he agrees."
"..." Xiao Zhou was speechless.
Arrived at Zuixianyuan.
Seeing that they were back, Zhu Feng ordered the people around him, "Go and tell Sister Yan that Brother Zhou has been found!"
He walked up quickly.
"When Brother Xiao sees you, we can let go of our worries."
Show concern.
"Brother Zhou, are you okay?"
"Yeah." Xiao Zhou nodded.
As soon as they entered Zuixianyuan, Sister Yan came up to her. She looked at Xiao Zhou and couldn't hold back her inner emotions any longer. She opened her arms and held him in her arms.
"You scared me to death."
"Are you not afraid of so many people watching here?" Xiao Zhou joked, patting her on the back.
Sister Yan raised her head and rolled her eyes at him angrily.
"I am willing, can they control it?"
Let him go.
He saluted Xiao Ran solemnly, "Brother Xiao, I'm troubling you again!"
"We are all brothers, so why bother?" Xiao Ran shook his head.
"Let's go to the back and talk." Sister Yan said.
Enter the backyard and sit down in the luxurious room last time.
The food and wine have been prepared, and there are only three of them.
"Brother Xiao, what's going on?" Sister Yan couldn't help but ask.
"Let him speak for himself." Xiao Ran shook his head, took a wine bottle, poured a glass, and drank.
Xiao Zhou told what happened in detail.
I also learned that Xiao Zhou will go to Purgatory for "training" tomorrow.
Sister Yan said, "Brother Xiao, don't let him go this time. If he can't meet your requirements, don't let him out."
"Are you too cruel?" Xiao Zhou glared at her.
"Hmph! As long as you practice more seriously in your daily life, you won't have what happened today."
Xiao Zhou was speechless.
"Where are Brother Mang, Guapi and the others?" Xiao Ran asked.
"I asked people to open the courtyard next to them, entertain them with good wine and food, and also asked some girls to come over and accompany them." Sister Yan said.
"I'll go take a look." Xiao Ran stood up from the chair.
"I'll take you there."
"No! You guys have a nice chat." Xiao Ran refused.
Xiao Zhou has just found her, and without even thinking, you can guess that they have a lot to say between them.
Leaved the room and gave the space to them.
Walk towards the yard on the side.
Here we are.
Listening to the chatter and laughter coming from the room, Xiao Ran smiled slightly, opened the door and walked in.
The sudden sound of the door opening stunned them, and they looked back subconsciously.
Seeing that the person coming was Xiao Ran, Brother Mang, Guapi, and their younger brother hurriedly stood up from their chairs.
"I have met the adults!"
"Don't be formal, sit down." Xiao Ran said.
Walking to the main seat, Brother Mang skillfully pulled out a chair, wiped the chair with his sleeves, and let Xiao Ran sit down.
"You guys go out first." Brother Mang said.
The others left, leaving only him and Guapi.
Taking out the one thousand tael silver note and handing it over, Brother Mang said, "Sir, Sister Yan doesn't want it."
"Take what's given to you." Xiao Ran glared at him.
"How do you feel?"
The two looked at each other, and Guapi winked at him, signaling him to speak quickly. Brother Mang gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground. Seeing this, Guapi also knelt down.
Brother Mang said, "Please give us a chance!"
Xiao Ran smiled and said, "You did a good job in this matter. I owe you a favor. Don't rush to say it. Think about it carefully. As long as the request is not excessive, I can satisfy you."
"It's our honor to serve you, sir. Why do you owe us any favors?" Brother Mang answered beautifully.
Speak truthfully what is in your heart.
"Over the years, my brothers have lived a life of living under the influence of others. Even if we beg for food, we have to give away most of the money we get. We are not willing to give it up! If we want to give it a try, we never had the chance before. Fortunately, God has allowed us to meet you, sir. To us, your arrival is the noble person in life and our opportunity. Please give us a chance. Even if you risk your life, you will not frown. !"
