Chapter 168 Decisive Battle (Part 2)

Early the next morning, the whole city was still cold and there were no people. However, as adults who were going to court, they sat in the sedan chair early and staggered straight to the palace gate.

Xu Dahua, who had just been transferred to the Minister of Rites, can be said to be proud of himself now. He was a little fat and had a round face. He looked like a good old man. At this moment, he was squinting his eyes and holding his hands, swaying with the sedan chair, as if he was dozing off.

Although he stayed up all night last night, he was more energetic and unsleepy at this moment.

He naturally knew about this incident, and what he knew more was that the Minister of Works was bound to be entrusted this time, and he was the only one who succeeded him!

Suddenly, the sedan chair was paused, and his head hit the back box, and he was awakened from his dream. His face was filled with anger, and he said with a faint sense of power, "What's wrong?"

The housekeeper hurried to the sedan chair, opened the curtain and apologized, "Master, it's not a small one, it's someone who blocks the way."

"Block the road?" Xu Dahua looked up and saw a man in black in the middle of the road not far away, holding a sword in his hand, blocking the way strangely.

Xu Dahua frowned and said impatiently: "No matter what weird person it is, hurry up and don't delay my court."

The butler quickly agreed, ran over, and said to the man in black: "Hey, who are you? Get out of here quickly, our adult sedan will pass by."

The man in black was very calm, like a lonely swordsman, and said motionlessly with his head tilted, "Let Xu Dahua tell me."

The butler was stunned and said, "Do you know our master?"

The man in black did not move, a hint of breeze came, and two bright ears rose.

The housekeeper looked up and down at the man in black, turned around and walked towards Xu Dahua, leaned closer to the curtain and whispered: "Sir, this person is here to come here specially to see you."

Xu Dahua's expression changed, he paused and opened the curtain, holding a smile on his face. Guan Wei walked over and looked at the man in black and said, "Who are you?"

The man in black looked up at him, and said in an indifferent tone: "Mr. Xu, read this account book first and see if the money you embezzled is accurate." After that, he took out an account book from his arms and threw it over.

Xu Dahua was shocked, took the account book and quickly turned it over. Not long after, a little cold sweat appeared on his head. After a while, he looked up at the man in black and said in a deep voice: "Who are you and what do you want?"

The man in black gave in and said, "Sir, you can continue walking forward, but there are Jinyiwei waiting not far ahead. As long as the adults continue to stop the three adults following behind, the villain promises that no one will know about this."

Xu Dahua was stunned and immediately said in surprise: "Are you Yang Dahong's person?"

The man in black didn't say much, holding the sword and leaving in the cold morning breeze, feeling quite arrogant and desolate.

The butler also heard it and trotted over and said, "Master, what should we do?"

Xu Dahua wiped the cold sweat from his head, turned around in a hurry, and said for a while: "Go and see if there are any Jinyiwei waiting in front."

The butler said hee, hurried away, and turned around after a few steps, saying, "Master, there are really Jinyiwei blocking the road."

Xu Dahua's head was covered with cold sweat, and the account book in his hand was like a thousand pounds fell. His eyes flashed for a while and gritted his teeth and said, "Continue to wait and call everyone in the sedan chair behind to my mansion, Eunuch Wei's side... I'll go and notify you half an hour later."

The butler also knew that something big had happened, so he quickly agreed.

On the other side, Dali Temple Minister Xu Zhiji was sitting in the sedan chair with a faint smile on his face. He had just received mercy from Wei Zhongxian and was the time to show off his performance.

The sedan chair was upside down, and he swayed comfortably while thinking about how to say it in the court to be powerful, able to establish authority in the court, and only then could Wei Zhongxian appreciate him more!

"Mr. Xu."

Suddenly, a loud shout woke Xu Zhiji up, and hurriedly opened the curtain and looked outside.

Three Jinyiwei walked out of the alley, with a man pressing behind him.

"Dad, dad, save me, save me..." A young man in his early twenties, struggling hard and screaming anxiously.

Xu Zhiji's expression changed and he hurriedly shouted: "Stop the sedan chair."

As soon as the sedan chair stopped, he hurried forward. When he saw that it was indeed his son, he immediately looked at the leading Baihu with a gloomy face. But before he could speak, the Baihu laughed sarcastically and said, "Mr. Xu, Mr. Ling is more promising than you. You dare to smuggle iron weapons and armor to the thieves at a young age. Don't rush to deny it. It's useless to deny it. As long as you stab it to the court, you can't escape the execution of the nine clans."

The Ming court regarded the Later Jin as a major concern, so they imposed various bans on them. Although the various private smugglings in the court were no longer able to manage them, if a second-rank official did this calmly, it would definitely be a huge disaster. Whether it was the Donglin Party or the eunuch Party's fight, it would not be easy to give up.

This involves "big righteousness", and no one can disobey it!

Xu Zhiji didn't know where he knew the consequences, and his face turned blue and white. After a long time, he said anxiously: "I know you Lord Luo. What do you have to say? Let's say in private that all the conditions are easy to say..."

The leading Baihu clasped the blade on Xu Zhiji's son's neck and said lightly: "There is no conditions. I will take a leave today and don't go to court. In addition, please block this road."

Xu Zhiji shouted in an instant, "You, you want to help Yang Lian, you are against Eunuch Wei..."

The blade of Baihu instantly pressed against his son's neck, and a stream of blood gushed out.

"Ah, Daddy, help me, save me..." Xu Zhiji's son shouted.

Xu Zhiji hurriedly laid his hand and said anxiously, "If you have something to say, I will promise you, you will let my son go..."

The leading households carried the young man over without hesitation, and said with a look of slight slightest: "You can go back on your word, but before you go back on your word, remember to ask your family to buy a coffin first."

Xu Zhiji untied the rope for his son with all his might, but he could no longer see the figure of the Jinyiwei.

"Master, Master." The manager also supported the young man, but stared at Xu Zhiji and called out a few times.

While looking at his son, Xu Zhiji stomped his feet sweating profusely and said, "What else can I do? Stop the person quickly. In addition, wait, let me inform Eunuch Wei after the person is stopped."

Such a scene appears in all directions of the capital, and people appear on almost every street, not only the Jinyiwei. Of course, some people can't stop it, but not stopping it does not mean they can leave.

As usual, in front of the palace gate, the sparse sedan chairs seemed very deserted.

Many adults shook their heads secretly, not knowing whether it was the mind like the environment or the environment like the heart. In short, today's weather is not good.

At the same time, the Tongzheng envoy, Cao Sicheng, who was just about to go out, was stunned when he opened the door. An old eunuch who was obviously dressed in the eunuch of Silijian, was standing at the door with a smile.

Silijian is Wei Zhongxian's territory. Cao Sicheng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Who is this father-in-law?" (To be continued.)
