531 Forcing an abdication
master, I just saw Yang Jian jump off the Dragon carriage and leave alone. I’ve already sent people to keep an eye on him.
the other patriarchs were a little flustered. the dragon protection squad led by yang jian was one of the three elite forces of dragon city. if this guy were to mobilize the army, it would be terrible.
“Keep a close eye on him. Once he goes to the Dragon protection squad to mobilize troops, contact me immediately,” He Zhan’s thinking was very clear. Now that Leng Guan was dead, he might as well take this opportunity to seize the power of the Imperial court.
He Zhan was duty-bound to restore the glory of the he family.
our private army is gathering faster than the Dragon protection squad. When the time comes, we can use Xu tianzhao to command Yang Jian. I don’t believe that the Yang family will attack without caring about Xu tianzhao’s life if they aren’t loyal and righteous. With the advantage in our hands, we can make a name for ourselves. After that, it’ll be Li Chao who sabotaged the government and framed the loyal. Xu tianzhao and Yang Jian can’t find any excuse to take action.”
“Yes, this is a rare opportunity. We must seize it. xu tianzhao had relied on this beast tide to promote three people to key positions in succession, and even snatched the position of libation of luozhe palace. this was clearly killing the donkey when the grinding is done. We have to join forces and let him know that he can’t control the powerful families as he wishes. If you want to govern Dragon City well, you can’t rely on a few outstanding generals, but you have to rely on us!”
Very quickly, the Dragon carriage arrived at the gate of the inspection department.
Xu tianzhao had just alighted from the Dragon carriage when the supervisor of the Department of Inspection immediately came forward to welcome him. He carefully helped the city Lord down.
As a result, he looked up and saw Xu tianzhao’s extremely gloomy face. He knelt on the ground with a thud.
“city lord, i’m guilty. last night, a few staff members on duty accidentally spilled water on the console, and the hard disk recording the video was all destroyed.”
Xu tianzhao had already guessed this outcome, and there was no joy or sadness on his face.
“if you say that his majesty isn’t strict, your salary will be deducted for half a year. For the few people on duty last night, the parties involved will be dealt with for dereliction of duty, while the rest will be dealt with for neglecting their duties.” xu tianzhao waved his hand and sighed, ” “Bring me in to take a look.”
The Head of the Department of Inspection had been appointed by him and had always been part of the reformist party.
it could only be said that the influential families were powerful and complicated, and that people from the enemy had entered the department of inspection.
Walking into the Department of Inspection, Xu tianzhao checked the situation at the scene of the incident.
the entire machine was burnt black, and the hard disk inside was completely scrapped. there was no way to restore the data. At the corner of the table, the coffee stains could be seen.
all the surveillance videos of the Department of Inspection have been destroyed, so there is no way to investigate this matter. We lack evidence, so we should focus on finding master Leng. Xu tianzhao said unwillingly. This matter was over and settled. although he didn’t want to, he had no other choice. he couldn’t hold on to it.
Upon hearing this, he Zhan and the other family heads couldn’t help but smile.
city Lord, you’re wise. You’re willing to clear my name, but Qianqian … he Zhan was about to say something when he was interrupted by a voice from outside.
“Report! City Lord, we have the backup video!” Yang Shu ran in with a hard drive in her hand, the joy on her face overflowing.
the gloominess on xu tianzhao’s face disappeared in an instant. it was like the first ray of sunlight breaking through the dark clouds after a dark winter day. it instantly sprinkled over the earth and illuminated everything.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Quick, bring it in!” Xu tianzhao revealed a rare excitement. The trip to the monster security company, which he did not have much hope for, had actually yielded some results. Although he didn’t know why Shado agreed to let Yang Jian copy the video, the truth would be revealed with the video.
On the other hand, he Zhan and the other members of the powerful families looked as if they had just seen a ghost.
They had never expected to be backstabbed by their allies.
” don’t worry, manager simon has always supported us. yang jian came back so quickly that he definitely didn’t have time to read the contents. it might be beneficial to us. ” He Zhan hurried to calm the clan Masters around him, his words revealing his great confidence.
“That’s right. Manager Simon has always supported us and will definitely advance and retreat with us. With such a fast speed, they must have already known what happened in Dragon City. This video must be to clear our suspicions!”
With a guarantee in their hearts, the few of them straightened their backs even more.
As long as this video could prove he Zhan’s innocence, they would have more reasons to clean up the emperor’s side.
Yang Shu squeezed through the crowd and came to Xu tianzhao’s side with the hard disk. “City Lord, I’m glad I didn’t fail you.”
On the side, Li Chao pulled the supervisor of the Department of Inspection and started to get busy. He began to call everyone to the room with the big screen.
Qin Shou and Yang Jian stood by Xu tianzhao’s side the whole time, acting as guards.
After Li Chao connected the hard disk to the computer, he found the video recording of the Yang family’s entrance at around nine O ‘clock yesterday and started to play it.
The room was silent. Everyone was waiting for the truth.
in the video, a group of people escorted leng guan out of the yang’s mansion. after a short conversation, leng guan got into he zhan’s carriage and left. then, he gradually disappeared from the video.
Li Chao exited the video and looked for the street and time of the previous scene. The carriage appeared on the screen again. In the surveillance footage, the he family’s carriage was heading out of the city from the main road. It did not turn right and head toward the residence in the Main City where the emperor’s teacher and he Zhan were.
This proved that he Zhan was lying!
everyone’s eyes were fixed on he zhan, but he zhan still had a modest smile on his face. no matter how many people looked at him, he would remain unmoved. Even when he met Xu tianzhao’s sharp eyes, he only nodded slightly and did not back down.
Li Chao looked for the next time node, and everyone’s eyes focused on the screen again.
At this moment, he Zhan quietly reached into his pocket and touched the nine-key button on his phone, skillfully typing blindly.
A moment later, a message was successfully sent through the mobile phone-[ things have changed, the operation has been brought forward! ]
The family heads standing behind he Zhan had a stiff expression on their faces.
He did not expect yang Kuai to really get a copy of the video from monster security company. As long as the video finished playing, the truth would be revealed.
Their only option now was to use Xu tianzhao to negotiate and end this matter in the name of purging the Emperor.
“Old he, what do we do now?” The other patriarchs behind him asked in low voices.
He Zhan leaned back slightly and replied, ” “The terrain in the city is complicated and not suitable for blackmail. Trick them to the secret villa in the cold pass on the outskirts of the city. There is an illusion bamboo forest and a camouflage spell there. It is easy to defend and hard to attack, so it is the best place to hold them hostage.”
When everyone heard this, they felt that it made sense. When the time came, they would sit on the fishing platform and defend with their private troops, making it difficult for the outside to attack.
hence, they all lowered their heads and used their phones to send messages, making arrangements in advance.
At the end of the video, the carriage slowly left the city, and the atmosphere in the room was extremely low.
“Lord he, how do you explain the incident in the surveillance video?” Xu tianzhao’s tone was still indifferent, so no one could guess what he was thinking.
he zhan tidied his clothes and chuckled. he was also very calm.”Since the city Lord has seen it, then I have nothing to hide. After Leng Guan received the information, he didn’t immediately report it to city Lord Xu. Instead, he used the excuse of coming to the Yang residence to congratulate me. Taking the initiative to ride in the same carriage as me was only to conveniently blackmail me with information in exchange for wealth.”
He Zhan shrugged his shoulders and continued as if he was telling a story, ” “We’ve come to an agreement, and even a few boxes of gold have been transported to the Leng residence. If the city Lord doesn’t believe me, you can go to the Leng residence to verify it. As for his whereabouts, I haven’t seen him since I left the manor.”
He Zhan knew that in Xu tianzhao’s heart, Leng Guan had always been a figure who was as high as a mountain, like his teacher and father.
To destroy one, one must first make it crazy.
He Zhan wanted to destroy the lofty image in Xu tianzhao’s mind and hurt his mind by crazily belittling and exposing Leng Guan’s true face.
Apparently, he Zhan had achieved his goal.
Xu tianzhao clenched his fists. His eyes were like those of a wild beast, as if he was going to tear he Zhan apart.
“Bring me there.” Xu tianzhao tried his best to suppress his trembling voice.
Now that the truth had been revealed, the supervisor of the Department of Inspection immediately summoned a group of people to arrest he Zhan, but they were dismissed by Xu tianzhao.
“No one has ever been able to escape from me, Xu tianzhao.”
Xu tianzhao had also considered that once he Zhan was restrained on the street, it would easily cause tension, gossip, and unnecessary riots before he gave an official reply to the people.
The group of people sat in the carriage and headed to the secret villa in the suburbs.
Inside the Dragon carriage.
li chao continued to comfort him,”please don’t worry, city lord. he tai’s words just now were definitely meant to disturb your state of mind.” Since we can’t find the Emperor teacher now, he can say whatever he wants.”
Xu tianzhao shook his head. He looked like he had aged more than ten years.
“Although I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, it’s easy to guess. There is no one in this world who doesn’t seek wealth or fame. Master Leng has served my Xu family for so many years, and this wealth is what he deserves. However, master Leng had such important information, yet he chose to extort the he family instead of telling me the information to deal with the Wushuang family,”
Silver hand had been holding back for a long time, and he really wanted to tell Xu tianzhao the truth.
It’s not that he didn’t want to tell you, but he was killed by link and I, so he didn’t have the chance to tell you.
However, he definitely couldn’t say this now. When they arrived at the secret villa, he might be able to say it after the plot flew for a while.
Soon, they arrived at the secret villa.
although there were illusion traps, li chao still led everyone into the villa accurately.
Xu tianzhao did not have any doubts. He even sighed with a little envy. “For master Leng to tell Little Junior Brother such an important place, it shows his trust in you. And because of my identity, I will never be able to get so close to master Leng. Above master and disciple is still the sovereign and subject.”
Along the way, Xu tianzhao sighed with emotion, and the three of them were fortunate enough to see another side of this formidable man.
When he arrived at the secret villa, Xu tianzhao’s every step was extremely heavy.
There were no signs of fighting at the scene, and everything was brand new.
he zhan opened his arms and said, ” this is the place. i left after we finished our discussion yesterday. ” As for where the emperor’s teacher has gone, I don’t know either.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLink, silver hand, and Li Chao looked around the room. All traces of their fight yesterday had been cleaned up. There were no blood stains on the ground, and there was no smell of blood in the air.
As expected of a top-notch aristocratic family, their wealth was godlike. The scene was restored in one night, and no traces could be seen.
Li Chao looked at it for a while and whispered to link, who was beside him,”Have you noticed that all the surveillance cameras here have been removed?”
well, there used to be many surveillance cameras here, but now they’re all gone. He Zhan must have modified them overnight. Maybe the emperor’s teacher was killed here, and the surveillance cameras were removed to cover up the truth. Link added.
After Xu tianzhao heard this, he felt that it was somewhat believable.
but now that the camera has been removed, the video recording will definitely be destroyed or erased. I’m afraid we won’t be able to find any evidence.
“Not necessarily!” Li Chao’s tone was firm, causing Xu tianzhao to turn around.”Master Leng once said that all the data in his villa is backed up in a black box, and the place is quite hidden. If master Leng was really killed here, he Zhan probably didn’t find the black backup box since he spent so much time repairing this place. We still have a chance.”
Xu tianzhao patted Li Chao’s shoulder and said, ” “I’ll be counting on you.”
He Zhan and the others stood aside, calm and unruffled.
They had just received a text message that the family’s private army had arrived and was waiting in ambush outside the villa. As long as they gave the order, they could rush in at any time to control the situation.
After a while, the entire basement buzzed as if the call was connected.
“Hello, hello, can everyone hear me?”
it was li chao’s voice.
“Lord he, although you removed all the surveillance cameras here and destroyed the video storage equipment, you definitely wouldn’t have thought that master Leng had set up a black box Backup here. Next, everyone, let’s see the truth!”
The television in the basement suddenly turned on, and the video began to play the content captured by the closed circuit television. There was still time on the upper left corner.
he zhan and leng guan arrived at the villa and had a detailed discussion. however, when they were about to leave, leng guan found that he zhan had brought a lot of people with him, so he started to take action. The battle at the scene was quite intense. In the end, Leng Guan was surrounded and ambushed, dying of exhaustion. In the end, no one was left standing. Leng Guan had fallen, and so had all the hatchet men he Zhan had brought.
Most of these videos were real, and some of the combat scenes were simulated by Troy. Other than professional video data analysis, it was difficult to see any flaws with the naked eye.
However, in Lin Ke’s plan, no one would care about the authenticity of the video now that things had developed to this stage.
All his emotions had been raised to the critical value, waiting for the final explosion.
Upon seeing this, everyone present fell silent. They all understood that a storm was about to arrive in Dragon City.
“lord he, what else do you have to say?” Xu tianzhao put his hands behind his back, his posture as an Emperor full of dignity.
He Zhan sneered. city Lord Xu, our Gentry clans have been loyal to your Xu family and Dragon City. After the reckoning, people were in a state of panic and the people were dying. It was our Gentry clans who opened up granaries, provided relief to the people, reorganized the troops, and recommended your Xu family to continue to rule Dragon City. It can be said that without our Gentry clans, there would not be the current Dragon City.
However, the city Lord didn’t want to treat us well, but instead, he listened to the slanderous words of the treacherous officials and wanted to get rid of us aristocratic families. It’s really bitterly disappointing!
Here, I sincerely request city Lord to correct the wrong path, kill the crafty and crafty Li Chao, and rebuild a bright and clear sky for Dragon City!”
He Zhan was full of confidence. The ministers of the powerful families behind him shouted in unison, ” kill the crafty sycophant and return Dragon City to its former glory!
The other officials were all stunned.
A large number of private soldiers from the aristocratic families swarmed into the villa and surrounded it.
Xu tianzhao’s face was gloomy, and he stared at he Zhan. “You, are you trying to abdicate?”
