At the same time, a bloody storm was unfolding all over the country!
The first to be affected was the capital!
After Shen Lian received the mission, he immediately started his operation in Chang 'an Fortress!
Ever since Jiang Chen showed the Embroidered Uniform Guards to the court, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had become an existence that everyone knew!
At this moment, groups of Embroidered Uniform Guards emerged from the Meridian Gate and rushed to various parts of the capital, immediately attracting the attention of the people.
"The Embroidered Uniform Guards are handling a case.”
As the cold voices echoed in the air, a somber air filled the capital.
"Are these the legendary Imperial Guards, the Embroidered Uniform Guards?”
"Embroidered spring saber, flying fish costume, it should be right!”
"Now that the Emperor's personal guards have come out in full force, I'm afraid something big is going to happen!”
"Shall we follow and take a look?"
……
For a time, the commoners were discussing animatedly.
The Brocade Guard, on the other hand, scattered and gradually went to the door according to the names and clues on the list.
Chang 'an East City, Lou Mansion!
This family was quite famous in the Eastern City. They relied on the inheritance left behind by their ancestors to do small businesses. Basically, no one dared to provoke them. They became tyrants and the common people avoided them.
If they were just ordinary merchants, what would the people fear?
The key was that the Lou family had bribed the officials in the court and obtained several empty positions by relying on their small family assets.
As a result, they were rich and were officials. Naturally, their family's arrogance began to grow. They did evil in the East City. No one dared to provoke them.
Dong dong dong--
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the Lou residence.
"Who is it? Knock what knock! Don't you know that this is the Lou Mansion?!"
An impatient roar came from the mansion.
Boom!
Then, the door opened.
He saw that the person who came was just a servant in the Lou Manor.
Just think about it. Even a small errand boy dared to be so arrogant. One could imagine how domineering the Lou residence was usually.
The servant originally had an evil look on his face and wanted to scold him.
However, when he saw the dozen or so Brocade Guards standing outside the door with cold expressions, wearing flying fish uniforms and holding embroidered spring knives, he swallowed his words.
The servant's arrogance from before instantly disappeared. He was so scared that his face was pale and his legs were trembling. It was obvious that he was scared out of his wits.
"Officials…officials…what happened?”The errand boy asked in fear.
"Lou Xiong, is Lou Yuan here?" The Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards asked.
" Yes... they are my master and young master..." The errand boy nodded with trepidation.
"Summon him!"
The Thousand Households coldly said.
The errand boy didn't dare to be negligent and hurriedly ran back to the manor to pass on the message.
From time to time, an old man and a young man would run out.
"Official, please come in and take a seat!”
"Official, official, this is a small token of my appreciation. I hope you can accept it!”
The two of them smiled obsequiously and did not forget to stuff silver taels into the hands of the thousand-man household, treating the Brocade Guard as an ordinary bailiff.
However, Qian Hu's expression did not change at all. He did not accept the silver and asked,""Is it Lou Xiong and Lou Heng?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The two of them hurriedly nodded.
"Take him away!"
The thousand-man's expression turned cold as he waved his hand.
Swoosh--
For a moment, more than ten Embroidered Uniform Guards swarmed forward and locked the two of them down!
Lou Xiong and Lou Yuan were shocked and shouted in horror.
"Sir, are you mistaken?”
"I'm a businessman! We are all honest businessmen!”
"Would a businessman buy an official position?" The Thousand Households said coldly.
Lou Xiong and Lou Yuan instantly understood and hurriedly smiled.
"Sir, since you know that we are on the same side, please let us go!”
"Yes, do you know the sixth rank manager of the Ministry of Personnel, Lord Liu? He's one of us!"
"Is that so?"
The corners of Qian Hu's mouth curled into a cold smile. He checked the name list and said,"We really don't have his name. Thank you for providing us with an important clue. We'll go catch him next!”
Hearing this, Lou Xiong and Lou Yuan's expressions changed drastically. They didn't expect to say that their backers were useless and hurriedly called out.
"We're not convinced. We're going to the yamen to complain!”
"That's right, you don't have the right to capture us! We want to see Lord Liu!"
"Humph! Your Lord Liu can't even protect himself, so how can he care about you? Moreover, this purge of the court is an order from the Emperor. Even if you see the current Minister, it's useless!”
The Thousand Households said coldly.
Hearing this, Lou Xiong and Lou Yuan's faces turned pale. They never thought that it was the Emperor's order!
This time, they were completely in despair. They knew that even if the heavens came, they would not be able to save them!
Swoosh--
In the next moment, the two of them actually rolled their eyes and fainted from fear.
……
The same scene was happening all over Chang 'an at the same time!
