Chapter 31 Clues(1/2)
() "Everyone, let me tell you the information I have so far. This organization is called the Hidden Dragon Holy Sect. It is an extremely large organization. From the sect to the court, there are people lurking in it. If you want to
It will take more than a day to completely dismantle them. Fu Jianfei, do you have any clues?"
Liu Xia raised her head and asked.
"Your Majesty, since Your Majesty's thorough investigation of the Inspectorate, Wei Chen has recalled all the detectives. Now they are conducting an internal investigation. There are already two survivors who are currently under interrogation."
Fu Jianfei lowered his head and clasped his fists and said.
"very good."
Liu Xia smiled slightly, and all the officials around him moved towards Fu Jianfei.
After all, it is the Metropolitan Procuratorate, a secret service agency. Unlike other officials, it does things very quickly.
"Okay, I will go to interrogate them personally in a moment. Mr. Zhang, General Zhao, Mr. Wang, Mr. Fu, you will stay first, and the others will leave first."
Immediately, many officials exited the hall one after another.
"General Zhao, as the commander of the northwest capital, you have full authority to command the northwest frontier army. I wonder what General Zhao is doing these days?"
Liu Xia asked worriedly.
The Northwest Frontier Army has a long history.
If the Hidden Dragon Holy Cult can hide in sects and government offices, it can also hide in the army.
The sect is in chaos, the government is in chaos, these are all trivial matters.
But if the border troops are in chaos, it will be a big deal.
By then, not only will the entire northwest be in ruins, but it may also directly threaten the hinterland of the Central Plains.
Very dangerous.
"Your Majesty, the army is the weapon of the dynasty and the authority of heaven. How dare you despise it? Master Fu and I have already started investigating. Three days ago, I ordered all the military attachés above the sixth rank to come to Weiyang City to participate in military exercises. These
These officials have arrived one after another these days. The ministers have begun to conduct interrogations. At the same time, various guard posts have been controlled. Anyone who leaves the station without permission will be punished. "
Zhao Yong hurriedly reported back.
Liu Xia nodded slightly when he heard this.
Zhao Yong is worthy of being a feudal official, and he is also very efficient in doing things.
All officials of the sixth rank and above were rushed to Weiyang in a hurry, fearing that they would lead troops to rebel, and at the same time, they controlled the various garrison posts to prevent the army from leaving the station without permission.
In this way, even if they want to jump over the wall in a hurry, they still have time to deal with it.
"Then I'd like to ask General Zhao to be careful. Mr. Fu, do you have any news?"
Liu Xia asked softly.
"Since the prince was assassinated, Wei Chen has sent people everywhere to track down Zhe Tian's whereabouts, but so far nothing has been found. However, it was discovered that the master who assassinated Miss Jinghong that night had stayed in Wangjiapu. I don't know if he left at the moment."
"Then why not lead a search?"
Liu Xia didn't understand.
"Your Majesty, the Wang family in Wangjiabao is a local aristocratic family. I don't dare to offend easily."
Fu Jianfei said awkwardly with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
Liu Xia understood immediately.
On the Dragon Soul Continent, some families have developed over a long period of time and become aristocratic families, also known as clans.
Just like sects, sects are extremely special existences in the Dragon and Tiger Continent.
They hold a large amount of wealth, connections, and skills in their hands, just like princes.
These aristocratic families controlled the economy and even politics of the imperial court.
Because, most of the officials are recommended by noble families.
Today, there are ten major families. If they join forces, they can compete with the imperial power.
Emperors have always treated these families with great respect.
Without the support of the world's noble families, even the emperor would find it difficult to secure the throne.
This is the difference between a sect and a family.
The sect has never participated in the world's disputes, but the family does.
It can be said that, in a certain sense, the royal family is just a huge family.
Naturally, valves also come in different sizes.
The world's noble families are headed by the ten great clans.
And the Wang family in Wangjiabao is just a famous local family.
Even so, through marriage and other means, these families look at each other from a distance, like an iron chain boat, and it really affects the whole body.
Even the imperial court was unwilling to touch it.
After all, today's imperial court and aristocratic families have broken arms and tendons.
Even the emperor was very taboo about it.
The once glorious Daqing Dynasty would not have perished in such a short period of time if it had not lost the support of the world's noble families due to tyranny.
If the current Tianji Dynasty had not been recognized by you from all the families in the world, it would not have become the Nine-Five Great Lord.
Liu Xia used to be in the sect. Although he didn't deal with these aristocratic families, he knew how powerful they were.
This matter is indeed a bit tricky.
"Master Wang, you are the chief envoy. Do you know anything about the Wang family?"
Liu Xia raised her head and asked.
"Reporting to the prince, the Wang family has a history of thousands of years in the northwest. It is a famous family in the northwest. It ranks among the top ten families in the northwest. The current minister of household affairs, Wang Ruogu, is a representative of the Wang family. At the same time, they and
The Gao family, which is a large family, has already been married."
Wang Zhoushan said softly.
"Gao family?"
"Your Majesty, the current cabinet minister, Gao Bowen, the bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, is the representative of the Gao family."
Zhang Tianhu said softly.
Liu Xia suddenly realized.
After the establishment of the Tianji Dynasty, in order to prevent the chaos among the prime ministers during the Daqing Dynasty, the position of prime minister was abolished.
Then a cabinet was established. Looking at the current situation, this cabinet is controlled by the ten major families.
Although the cabinet members are not prime ministers, they still have the status of prime ministers. They are really above one person and below ten thousand people, and they hold the position of supreme minister.
The Wang family was originally one of the top ten powerful families in the northwest, and at the same time, it was married to the Gao family, one of the top powerful families in the Dragon Soul Continent.
Even the Inspectorate, as the emperor's eyes and ears, dare not touch it, which shows how huge the power of the Wang family is in the northwest.
"Master Fu, keep an eye on the Wang family for me. I will go to the Wang family personally tomorrow. I am a person who always seeks revenge. Whoever wants to kill me, no matter who he is, I will not let him go."
Liu Xia smiled disdainfully.
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
"Yes, Your Majesty, it seems inappropriate to do this."
At that moment, Zhang Tianhu and Wang Zhoushan tried to dissuade him.
"What's wrong? If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you. If a man doesn't take revenge, is he still a human being? What's wrong with the world? In a word, if a Buddha stands in the way, he will kill the Buddha, and if a god stands in the way, he will kill the god!"
After saying this, Liu Xia stood up with an angry look on his face.
Wang Zhoushan couldn't help but break into a cold sweat and thought to himself: "I'm going, how come I'm so fearless of heaven and earth? It seems that I really can't be an official."
Zhang Tianhu smiled helplessly and shook his head slightly.
I sighed in my heart: "It is true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Look at this, this prince will not let it go unless he disturbs the chickens and dogs in the northwest."
Fu Jianfei couldn't help but shudder.
I was secretly glad that this man didn't hold a grudge, otherwise he would have been unlucky this time.
As for Zhao Yong, he frowned and remained silent.
He vaguely felt that there was a calmness before the storm. He had planned to work for a few more years and then retire, but now it seemed that there was no hope.
"Okay, let's discuss it here today. Mr. Fu, take me to the Inspectorate to have a look."
At that moment, the four people bowed and knelt one after another.
Naturally, there was a lot of busy work afterwards, and Liu Xia came to the Inspectorate.
After the great battle that day, the Inspectorate is now riddled with holes.
There are ruins everywhere and a mess everywhere.
To be continued...
