Chapter 27 Impeachment
Early in the morning, the fog had not yet dissipated, and there were still raindrops in the sky. Wuqi, whose face was a little pale, was already sitting in the gate of the Dianjun Mansion, and looked in the direction of the Chengshou Mansion. He was still holding a bowl of porridge and snacks in his hand, with a strange smile on his face.
He sucked the porridge bite at a time and ate the snacks slowly. The guards and servants who came and went back and forth were used to his actions, and they were too lazy to look at him more. At most, the servants of the aristocratic family trained by the Yi family secretly cursed behind their backs that the rural village man did not understand etiquette and was so inappropriate when eating, and even ruined Lu Chengfeng.
The fragrance of clothes with the smell of pine branches came with the wind. Lu Chengfeng held a huge bowl of porridge without any shape, holding a snack in his mouth, and walked to Wuqi in his side, and sat on the threshold.
After looking at the city guard's mansion for a while, Lu Chengfeng asked in a low voice: "What else can I have to watch today?"
Wuqi swallowed the porridge and said vaguely: "How do I know? But I am used to sitting here."
Before he finished speaking, he saw several guards guarding the inner trunk of the city guarding the palace running over with pale faces. These people seemed to be fascinated by ghosts and didn't look at their feet at all. As a result, when passing by a downward stone staircase, several people stepped on the air almost at the same time and fell to the ground with one solid front.
There were a few sad sounds, and several guards rolled on the ground for a while, staggered and rushed towards the city lord's mansion. The guard who rushed in the front suddenly screamed at the top of his voice. His voice was trembling, like a tight string, making a sharp scream that made people's eardrums hurt.
"Young Master, you've been robbed, you've been robbed! The inner treasury was stolen, the inner treasury was stolen, the most valuable batch of things among all the tributes, spirit stones, spiritual medicines, spirit mines, and the treasures you collected for several princes and lords, were all stolen!"
With a few 'clang', the guards standing at the gate of the city guard's mansion softened their legs and sat on the ground. The weapons on their waists hit the ground and made a dull sound. The screams of a bereaved family sounded one after another from inside and outside the city lord's mansion. Hundreds of guards and servants in the city lord's mansion quickly spread the black and unlucky news.
Every year, Xiaomeng City has to donate a large amount of gold, silver and various mountain delicacies to King Lu, which is the greatest significance of the existence of the city of Xiaomeng City. The dozens of the highest-ranking dukes, princes and lords in the State of Lu also have their own interests in Xiaomeng City. They will purchase various mountain delicacies in Xiaomeng City through the city guard.
The tributes in the inner warehouse and the treasures accumulated over the years were stolen, which hit Yi Yan's city guard.
Without the treasures of gold and silver to the court of Lu, the court would never mind changing to another city guard. The treasures purchased by the Dukes, Princes and Kings with large amounts of real money and silver were lost. Those noble figures would never mind crushing the Yi Yan brothers and some of the concubines of the Yi family with one finger.
The tragic howling suddenly sounded from the backyard of the city guard's mansion. It was the tragic sound of the four brothers Yi Yan, Yi Xing, Yi De and Yi Xu, "God, Hou Tu, what evil have we done? Which ghosts and gods have we offended? Do we want to punish us like this?"
The four brothers were stolen and their private property was heartbroken, but as long as they were in their official position, they could still find the land back after two years. However, they lost the tribute and treasures saved in the warehouse over the years. Let’s not talk about whether they can save their official positions, let’s see if their lives can be saved first!
The sound of rapid footsteps sounded, and Yi Yan, who had only tied a bag of crotch, exposed his body of fat as snowflakes, rushed out of the city lord's mansion. Following him were the three Yi Xing brothers, who were messy and had no hair. They rushed towards the direction of the inner trunk with a large group of guards.
Yi Yan's face was as pale as snow. While running wildly, he spit out two or three mouthfuls of blood from time to time, dyeing the snow-white flesh on his chest scarlet red, looking very terrible. The three brothers Yi Xing also had blood in the corners of their mouths. They opened their mouths and panted with difficulty, like a drowning dog.
"Hurry, hurry, see what was stolen!" Yi Yan ran away in a panic, screaming while running.
Wuqi shook his head, stretched out his tongue to lick the porridge bowl cleanly. He knew what he did. Yesterday, Wuqi spent fifteen low-quality water-attributed spirit stones to replenish his true energy. He mobilized the strongest true energy to enhance his speed and strength all the time. It took two and a half hours to move all the things he could move out in the warehouse.
However, there were too many things in the treasury. Wuqi only chose the most valuable items to steal, and also emptied the gold ingots and moved a lot of silver ingots away. Those things that were really unharvested could only be destroyed. For example, the fur of those precious rare birds and beasts was stabbed by Wuqi with a short sword, and all of them turned from treasures worth thousands of gold to waste.
It was because of excessive effort that Wuqi looked pale today and his body was a little deficient, but it just fit his identity as a "seriously injured".
Now there are two water-attributed spirit stones under his armpits, constantly extracting the spiritual energy inside to supplement his own consumption. The cool water vapor is constantly sucking into his arms, turning into a surging real water spiritual energy.
However, after overdrawing the true energy and replenishing all the consumption with the help of spirit stones, Wuqi's cultivation suddenly increased by 30%! He once again approached the critical point of the acquired peak. Wuqi once again strengthened the meridians with the true water and spiritual energy, and did not rush to break through the acquired realm.
A noise came from afar, and a group of rushing guards carried the four unconscious Yi Yan brothers back. It was obvious that the tragic situation in the warehouse made Yi Yan and the others too excited, so that the four brothers all bleed blood and fainted.
Wuqi looked at the guards carrying Yi Yan's brothers back and handed the bowl to Lu Chengfeng.
Lu Chengfeng subconsciously took the porridge bowl handed over by Wuqi, and heard Wuqi say, "What is the crime of losing the tribute in Lu State?"
With his eyebrows raised, Lu Chengfeng replied subconsciously: "At least it is a punishment for losing his official position. If it is not done well, he will have to take it back to the capital to question him."
He rubbed his palms hard, and Wuqi asked Lu Chengfeng: "Then, young master, you are in the royal capital, and there are still one or two friends with you? You have not even one or two aristocratic families who can inform you since you grew up, right?"
His eyes lit up, and Lu Chengfeng nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course there are still some people who are close friends, but their identities are comparable to mine, and they are all embarrassing people in the family."
Yi Gulu stood up and Wuqi sneered, "Is it embarrassing or not? No matter so many. Young Master, please submit a letter to impeach the four brothers Yi Yan, saying that they are corrupt and abused and embezzled tributes. The crimes can be as heavy as possible. Send them to the capital as fast as possible. By the way, I will send them a letter to the sons of your friends, asking them to spread the news in the capital."
Lu Chengfeng stood up with two bowls of porridge, nodding in excitement: "Miao Zai, kill them with one stick, and they will not have the chance to turn over. Before the appointment of Xincheng Guard, you and I can do whatever we want in Xiaomeng City!"
With a pursed smile, Lu Chengfeng said sinisterly: "Xiaomeng City is located in a remote place, and a group of officials are killed and injured every year. I am afraid that no one is willing to come here to take up their posts, unless it is really the kind of person who is desperate and has been determined to get into the money eye!"
Wuqi glared at Lu Chengfeng, and he sneered: "Why don't you go quickly? Let Xiao Hei take thirty barbarians on the road and carry as many gold, silver and jewelry as possible. Let the noble families who are good friends with you work together to help you find a position to act as an agent for the city guard!"
Lu Chengfeng looked at Wuqi in surprise: "Why isn't the official city guard?"
Wuqi glanced at Lu Chengfeng with the look of looking at the pig: "Young Master's brothers are willing to see you as the city guard? The acting city guard is always a false reputation. Even if the young master completely takes Xiao Mengcheng into his hands, no one will value it. But once the young master becomes the official city guard, hum!"
Two sneers made Lu Chengfeng wake up with a tremor. He slammed his head with a bowl of porridge, turned around and ran in like a wind.
After running several steps, Lu Chengfeng suddenly woke up. He looked at the two porridge bowls on his left and right hands, and turned around and looked at Wuqi with a little depressed feeling. Does this guy have a little bit of self-consciousness as a guest? He actually asked his young master to help him clean up the porridge bowls?
With a wicked mouth, Lu Chengfeng shouted: "Wuqi, what are you going to do?"
Wuqi walked happily towards the guards of several city guards not far away. He smiled and replied, "What are you doing? You spread rumors and make trouble! If you lose your offerings, the Yi brothers will be in trouble. Tsk, look at my spiritual tongue and blow the thousands of guards of the guards of all the city guards!"
Lu Chengfeng's eyes lit up again. At this moment, he felt his whole body full of energy and shouted in a series of words: "Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei, come here quickly!"
He wrote an impeachment memorial with gorgeous writing style and sharp style as fast as possible, and wrote several private letters full of brotherly friendship. Lu Chengfeng packed the memorial and letters with copper tubes and lacquer, and handed them to Xiao Hei carefully, and gave them a long sentence to him.
Half an hour later, Xiao Hei took thirty barbarians and rode the fastest mount in Xiao Meng City and ran out of Xiao Meng City. Inside Xiao Hei's waist, in addition to memorials and letters, there were also thick stacks of gold tickets exchanged in the money tickets in Xiao Meng City - 100,000 ingots of pure gold. 100,000 gold was enough to determine the position of county magistrate of a small county in Lu State, let alone the remote small town of Xiao Meng City?
Poor Yi Yan tried his best to shave the land for several years, making Xiaomeng City nine feet high, but it turned out that all the money was cheaper Wuqi and Lu Chengfeng.
Just as Lu Chengfeng was busy dispatching troops, Wuqi had already walked to the guards of several city guards and greeted the guards with a smile. Because he was the chief gambler of Officer Dian, these guards dared not be negligent and rushed to return the gifts.
Wuqi smiled and greeted these guards, and then asked kindly: "Brothers, you are not the guards of the Yi family, are you?"
A few guards looked at me, and I looked at you, and shook their heads at the same time.
The four brothers Yi Yan came to Xiaomeng City and brought only a hundred personal guards. The thousands of guards in the city guard mansion were all included in the past few years.
Wuqi nodded heavily, and he raised his hands and walked slowly to the side. As he walked, he sighed with emotion: "The tribute was lost, the inner treasury was stolen. Seeing that the official position of the city guard was not guaranteed, all brothers are those who live a life of wages, and they are not guards of their own children. How can they live in the future!"
In just one hour, rumors spread everywhere in the Xiaomeng City Guardian.
The city guard is about to fall. What should we do with these guards he hired a lot of money? Today, the city guard Yi Yan can't even pay for the next month! Should we go find another way to live, or go to the new Lord Dianjun?
Rumors are everywhere and people are in chaos.
