"Lord Liu, recently the officials have reported that Six Fan School has been arresting people frequently, sealing shops, and bullying people.”
Although it wasn't a court meeting or cabinet meeting, as the Six Fan School that held real power, Emperor Wu still trusted the Constable God very much. He summoned him many times in private and was a favorite of the emperor.
As the ruler of the empire, Emperor Ming Wu himself knew the way of balance.
Eunuchs, imperial relatives, foreign officials and military officers of the Six Fan School and the Jinyiwei. Only by balancing the three could his throne be stable.
Moreover, compared to the greed of the eunuchs and the ambitions of the royal family, these foreign officials and military officers were the true subjects.
However, he did not have absolute trust.
"It's true that they arrested people and sealed the shop, but they might not have done anything wrong.
All of this was done by Yin Tian, the guest of Six Fan School, and not directly by Six Fan School.
Recently, the Six Fan School had received news that many places where news circulated, especially those elegant brothels and teahouses, secretly recorded the conversations of those guests and inquired about the privacy of many adults. As the case was rather sensitive, the matter was handed over to Yin Tian, the visiting elder of Six Fan School, to investigate.”
"Oh, is that so? What was the result?"
Emperor Ming Wu couldn't tell if he was happy or angry, but he suddenly clenched his fists and was furious.
After all, there were a few officials who were clean. Although he had never stepped out of the palace, Emperor Wu knew that there were very few people who dared to say that they were clean and upright.
If he was caught, he might be kept in the dark when others rebelled.
"There's no direct evidence yet, but according to the recent investigation of Six Fan School, these places have recorded the conversations of guests. The information collected also involves the privacy of many adults.”
Drunken words made people even crazier. They dared to say anything.
The Six Fan School stood tall in China and had countless talents. Although Yin Tian had arrested people randomly and framed them, these people were not clean.
Therefore, although the Six Fan School did not have any direct evidence in such a short time, they still had some clues.
"Who is behind these people?”
"This…"
Without direct evidence, the Constable God didn't dare to say absolutely.
Moreover, most of them were Yin Tian's acts of revenge. Indiscriminately pointing fingers at the Imperial family's relatives, this crime was not small.
"Speak!"
"Iron Gutsy Divine Marquis Zhu Bujue! These brothels, teahouses, and other places were convenient for information circulation, and were the strongholds for Divine Marquis to gather information.
Moreover, among the eight great families of the Nine Provinces, the Wan family worked closely with the Divine Marquis. For many years, the Wan family had been funding the Divine Marquis to develop his information network and secretly nurtured a group of experts.”
"Imperial uncle?"
Emperor Ming Wu nodded after hearing the conclusion.
He had heard the rest of the news from the eunuchs, but it was a different story when it came from the Constable God.
Three people could make a tiger, not to mention the leaders of two departments with real power. The Constable God never spoke without thinking.
"Is this Honored Guest from the Ba Shu Yin Clan?”
"That's right, he is the only heir of the Ba Shu Yin Clan.”
"Hehehe…When will you bring him over? I want to see him!”
As the emperor, he knew about the Yin family of Ba Shu. However, the heir of the Yin family was willing to be a guest of the Six Fan School. It was obvious that he was here for revenge.
For a moment, Emperor Ming Wu could not help but feel much better.
What he wanted was not absolute control, but absolute balance.
Only balance could stabilize the situation. If a single family was dominant, even he, the emperor, would feel uneasy.
"Your Majesty, the people of Jianghu are wild and untamed. I'm afraid they will taint your eyes.”
"The Yin Clan of the Ba Shu is not the wilderness of the martial world. If it was not for the fact that they are not involved in the royal court, the Yin Clan of the Ba Shu would definitely have a place in the Eight Great Clans.
Moreover, I still remember the information about the bronze man he offered last time. He's not someone that a reckless person can compare to. At such a young age, he was shrewd, resourceful, and knowledgeable. He could be said to be an outstanding figure among the younger generation.”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The Hunter God suddenly remembered what happened three years ago. Coupled with the current methods, he could not help but sigh at the other party's high methods.
Zhu Bujue was gathering the private information of the officials in the court. This was something that no one cared about, but once it was exposed, it was like hitting the snake and hitting the seven inches, putting Zhu Bujue in a dilemma.
One was the Emperor's fear, and the other was the backlash from the ministers.
He could imagine the consequences of today's conversation once it got out.
He glanced at the young eunuchs around him. It was not that he did not want to remind Emperor Ming Wu, but it was better for him not to get involved in the matters of the palace.
···
"Has the Hua family finally arrived?"
Yin Tian looked at the invitation in his hand and could not help but smile. He was in a good mood.
The Jiangnan Hua family was one of the few merchant families that could compete with the Wan family. Moreover, their strength was not much weaker than the Wan family.
If the Hua family did not look for him this time, he would look down on the Hua family instead.
This time, the Wan Clan had been suppressed by the Yin Clan and the Li Clan, and it was the Ba Shu and Guanzhong Conglomerates that had taken action. The losses of the Wan Clan were not superficial, and the position of the eight great clans was already in danger.
At this moment, there were many merchant families that had the ability to surpass the Wan family, but the only one that was truly favored was the Hua family.
There was no other reason but strength!
Wealth without strength was not his own, but a fat sheep that could be slaughtered at any time.
"Little girl, do you want to go out for a walk?”
In the backyard of the Guo residence, Yin Tian looked at the little girl Guo Furong who had changed to the Heavenly Eagle Claw and could not help but invite her,
With Yin Tian's arrival, Guo Furong's martial arts training time increased greatly.
Originally, Guo Bujing was the only one supervising the little girl's martial arts practice. Now, Yin Tian was there. After all, when he had nothing to do, Yin Tian would guide the little girl's martial arts practice. It was like looking for trouble.
In just a few days, the little girl had already mastered the Sky Eagle Steps.
As for claw techniques? If one's strength was not enough, it was useless to train forcefully.
"Alright! Alright! I want to go out."
Looking at the excited Guo Furong, Yin Tian could not help but think of his sister.
At least this girl still had her mother to take care of her, and she could go out for a walk with her family. However, his sister had basically never left the Imperial Sword Manor in the past thirteen years.
"Change your clothes and gather at the door in fifteen minutes.”
Yin Tian stood up and left. He also wanted to change into a suitable outfit to meet the Hua family and discuss the cooperation.
Once the Hua clan and the Yin clan joined forces, it would naturally be beneficial to both sides. The only disadvantage would be the Wan clan.
"Wan family, hehehe…"
Fifteen minutes later, two figures, one big and one small, left the Guo family.
Behind her, Mrs. Guo also waved at Guo Furong and reminded her not to stay up too late.
After all, in Mrs. Guo's eyes, Yin Tian was easy to talk to. Moreover, he was an outsider. It was inevitable that he could not control the crazy little girl.
