After a day of noise, darkness finally descended.
As the night deepened, everything was silent.
The excitement in the capital was far from over.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard's North and South Garrison Guard's 14 Thousand Households, as well as the Department for Purging Officials and the other 10 Departments, all received Ling Chen's orders. The few Thousand Households of the North Garrison Guard were very conscious, and under Lu Wenzhao's persuasion, they immediately gathered their elites and headed towards Xu Xianchun's residence.
After hesitating for a while, the few thousand households of the South Town Fu Division also decided to obey.
After all, the Emperor had already publicly issued an edict for Ling Chen to thoroughly investigate the Embroidered Uniform Guards and anyone related to Xu Xianchun…this was equivalent to pinching their pulse. Anyone with a bit of intelligence would not jump out at this time to cause trouble.
However, before they left, they still informed their immediate superior, Ying Wuqiu.
Unexpectedly, Ying Wuqiu was not at home.
It seemed that she couldn't stand the humiliation during the day and went out to get drunk.
" Poor Lord Ying. He thought that he could get back at him, but who would have thought that the kid who stepped on his head would be on equal footing with him at night? He can't even take revenge…"
"No wonder Lord Ying couldn't think straight!”
…………
When Lu Wenzhao and the other 13 Embroidered Uniform Guards arrived outside Xu Xianchun's residence, they were surprised.
Then, he was shocked.
Surprisingly, the fourteenth Thousand Households Bureau, which was under the command of Thousand Households Liu, had also sent people to this place, and there were quite a few of them.
What shocked him was that the Xu Manor had already been surrounded by hundreds of foreign servants from the East Chamber!
The group of people held their weapons in the open, and their killing intent soared into the sky. They were like little ghosts in the dark, staring at them with a sinister look. They did not put the dozen or so Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards and the hundreds of elite subordinates they had brought with them in their eyes at all.
"That's right. Lord Xu has been in charge of the Northern Garrison for many years, so his family must have a lot of money. Now that he's dead, the East Chamber will definitely not let go of this wealth!”
In an instant, all the Brocade Guards understood, and their hearts trembled."It seems that the new Lord Ling summoned us here to have a head-on conflict with the East Military Hall and seize the opportunity to seize the house?!”
"They're using us as weapons!"
The moment this thought appeared, everyone's expressions changed.
Only Lu Wenzhao was calm, as if he had already thought of this.
As expected, Ling Chen's number one lackey, Pei Lun, appeared with a dozen or so people.
"Lord Ling has ordered that the Jinyiwei will handle Xu Xianchun's case. These dogs of the East Military Hall have no right to interfere!”
He pointed at the Xu Manor calmly. Pei Lun was holding a knife in her left hand and a bamboo stick in her right hand. She looked like she had just eaten."So, my lords, please make a move and drive away these dogs from the East Chamber!”
Before he finished speaking, the Xu Manor fell into silence.
No one from the East Chamber had moved out to surround the Xu Manor. It was obvious that their master was happily looting inside, so he had no time to deal with the uninvited guests outside…And it was obvious that the high and mighty masters of the East Chamber were too lazy to deal with the Brocade Guard.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards outside the residence looked at each other, but no one responded to Pei Lun.
One of the Chiliarchies of the South Town Governor's Office was furious. He pointed at Pei Lun and shouted,""Pei, who are you? If it was in the past, he wouldn't even have the right to speak in front of us. Now, he actually dares to use a chicken feather as an arrow and order us to do things?!”
"Exactly! Furthermore, the emperor's decree only asked Lord Ling to investigate our innocence, not for us to listen to his orders!”
"Lord Ying Wuqiu is still the commanding officer of the South Garrison Governor!”
"This world is really unpredictable. In the past, a small figure who couldn't be seen in public thought that he could treat the hierarchy in the Embroidered Uniform Guards as decoration just because he hugged a certain thigh?!”
"What a joke!"
As the thousand-man shouted, the other thousand-men of the South Town Governor's Office also joined in, pointing at Pei Lun and cursing.
They were all people who were used to bossing people around. Although they didn't dare to offend Ling Chen at this moment, it didn't mean that they could tolerate Pei Lun's arrogance.
However, they did not notice that the moment they spoke, Lu Wenzhao's eyes revealed a hint of pity.
"He's now a Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.”
Ling Chen's voice suddenly rang out, causing everyone present to tremble.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards all turned their heads, only to see Ling Chen leading Jiang Yuyan, Ba Dao, and the others as he walked over in large strides. He did not even bother to conceal the killing intent of the arrogant Ba Dao on his body, and it swept out like a storm.
Seeing this, the thousand-men of the South Town Governor's Office subconsciously thought of what had happened during the day and swallowed their saliva.
However, they clearly relied on their backing. Although they were a little afraid, they did not panic.
"Lord Ling, are you joking? There are fourteen thousand households in total in the Jinyiwei's Southern and Northern Garrison Guard Divisions. Now that Old Liu is dead, although you are in charge of the Northern Garrison Guard Divisions, you are only a thousand household, which just happens to fill his vacancy!”
The thousand-man who spoke first pointed at Pei Lun and said,"This person is just a commandant in embroidered clothes. How did he become a thousand households in the blink of an eye?”
In response to his accusations, Ling Chen only calmly replied.
"If I say he's a thousand, then he's a thousand.”
These words sounded calm, but there was a sense of arrogance that dominated the world. When it entered the ears of everyone present, their hearts trembled. The expression of the Thousand Households of the Southern Division changed drastically!
No matter how stupid he was, he had thought of something at this moment!
However, before he could react, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. A blade stained with blood had already pierced through his heart!!
His expression suddenly froze, and his entire body began to tremble. Only his eyeballs moved with great difficulty, and they were filled with disbelief. At the back of the blade was a long iron rod, and the person holding the rod was Pei Lun!!
In the past, he did not even put Pei Lun in his eyes.!
" Daren, if you die, the position of a thousand households in the Embroidered Uniform Guards will naturally be vacant…"
At this moment, the entire place was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. Only Pei Lun's cold voice rang out,"And this Pei, thanks to Lord Ling's appreciation, can take over your position and sit on the position of the Embroidered Uniform Guard's Thousand Households!”
As his voice spread out, everyone present trembled in fear.
Other than Lu Wenzhao, all the other thousand-household officials 'faces turned pale.
It was only now that they had come into direct contact with Ling Chen, so they finally realized that Ling Chen and his Embroidered Uniform Guards were fundamentally different from them.
They were just using their status to be unscrupulous, but these people were…
Lawless!
Ling Chen looked over, and the blades in their hands dared to kill anyone!!
