Are you all after the heroine? I married that female devil

Chapter 1246 He Ji’s Visit

The general was stunned again when he heard this. His master could actually think of this level.

If it is really as my master expected, the Wuwei Division can not only divert attention, but also use the Dali Temple to shut up those scholars, and the main cost will be borne by the Dali Temple.

Well, it’s such a wicked way of passing the buck. If nothing unexpected happens, the people in the Dali Temple will definitely curse them to death in their hearts afterwards.

"Okay, don't think too much. Send all four to the Dali Temple first, and then let the Dali Temple release these three and keep the main criminal for trial."

Gui Shu said in a deep voice.

"Yes, my lord."

The general flag came to his senses, bowed, told his men to follow their master's instructions, and set off for the Dali Temple.

Gui Shu stood there and watched them leave, then he couldn't help but sigh. It was really a turbulent time when such a thing happened just before the imperial examination.

Lord Suzaku is not in the Wuwei Division at the moment, so let's talk about this matter with Jing'an and others first.

the other side.

Lou Chenghou Mansion.

After asking around, He Ji finally found Lou Chenghou Mansion.

Upon hearing the visitor's surname was He, the doorman immediately recalled the instructions of his young master and hurried to notify him.

In the mansion, Xu You, who was practicing, heard that He Ji was coming to visit. He guessed that the other party must have encountered something and came to see him. Without thinking too much, he asked the doorman to bring the person in.

"Brother Xu, sorry to bother you."

As soon as they met, He Ji said apologetically.

"Brother He, you're welcome. Please take a seat."

Xu You invited He Ji to sit down in the pavilion.

"Brother Xu, I..."

He Ji wanted to say something but stopped himself. He clenched his fist and lightly hit his thigh. He didn't know how to start the conversation about this matter.

"Brother He, have you run into any trouble?"

Xu You smiled slightly and went straight to the point.

"To be precise, it was a friend of mine from the same hometown, named Qi Shang. He was injured by a bad guy on the street today, and was later discovered by three other friends from the same hometown. It happened that the government officials arrived at the scene, and a conflict broke out between the two sides. All four of them were arrested."

Since the question had already been asked, He Ji didn't want to beat around the bush and just smiled wryly and recounted what had happened in general.

"By the way, Brother Xu, there must be some hidden story behind this. My fellow countryman friend who came to see me is currently trying to find out."

He Ji sighed: "I didn't expect that we would encounter such a thing just a few days after arriving in Tianwu City."

After hearing this, Xu You frowned visibly.

He Ji’s fellow townsmen and friends are all candidates for this imperial examination.

Normally speaking, as long as these candidates do not commit crimes on their own initiative, neither the Wuwei Division nor the Dali Temple will take action against them.

Not only was Qi Shang beaten, but he and three other people were also captured by the government. The background of the people who beat him up was probably not simple.

It is intriguing that He Ji came to find him instead of his uncle who was the prime minister.

"Brother He, do you know whether they were captured by the Wuwei Division or the Dali Temple?"

Xu You asked tentatively.

If it was someone from the Dali Temple, it would be easy to deal with. There are quite a few people in Tianwu City who can have an influence on the Dali Temple.

If Wu Weisi...

Then these four people can only blame themselves for being unlucky and offending someone they shouldn't have offended.

"I'm still asking around, so I'm not sure yet."

He Ji looked embarrassed.

He should have asked a few more questions at that time instead of coming here and answering all the questions without knowing anything.

"Ugh."

Xu You rubbed his brows and said, "There is too little important information. It's difficult to deal with it."

"Understood, understood."

He Ji responded repeatedly, knowing that he was a little anxious and would come back after knowing the reason.

"Brother He, rest assured. I will never break my promise to you as I said in the carriage that day. I will do my best to help you."

Xu You first gave He Ji a reassurance.

He was weighing the pros and cons in his mind at this moment.

If you look at it in a positive way, it was the Dali Temple that arrested people arbitrarily, arresting the person who was beaten but not the person who attacked. This is their problem and they are in the right.

Qi Shang and the other three were candidates for this imperial examination, so they had a special status and could make some contributions.

With the influence of Lou Chenghou Mansion, it is easy to pay some money and ask the Dali Temple to release the person, but it is important to use this incident to create an impact and establish a presence among those candidates.

The words may sound very nice, but if you really want to help, you can't do it without gaining any benefit at all.

These candidates will be the pillars of Daqian in the future. Their presence may gain favor in the eyes of some people.

Having a good impression is equivalent to laying a good foundation for future interactions.

His Royal Highness Prince Yan has been eager to seek talented people since returning to Tianwu City.

If he handles this matter well, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan might use him from now on.

A long time ago, just two days after Shen Siyue returned to Tianwu City, Xu You became his disciple and helped him with his work.

But he was busy with only trivial matters and never had a chance to show himself, which made Xu You very depressed.

So when he found out that He Ji, the nephew of Prime Minister He Fangyi, was a candidate for the imperial examination, he began to make his own plan.

The plan was to establish contact with Prime Minister He Fangyi through He Ji.

This is also why He Ji met him as soon as he arrived in Tianwu City, and the two sides quickly established a relationship.

If everything goes well, His Royal Highness Prince Yan will surely look at him with admiration.

"Thank you, Brother Xu. I can't express my gratitude enough."

He Ji stood up and saluted.

"Brother He, you are too kind."

Xu You stood up and supported He Ji, and called for the servants in the mansion to bring more dried fruits and cakes.

Right now, we need to wait for the other party's fellow countryman friend to find out everything clearly before making any plans.

I hope the person is in the hands of the Dali Temple.

Dali Temple.

"Every day, the Wuwei Division has taken over all our work. We have nothing to do~"

"Let's find a place to listen to some music after get off work."

Liu Rudi, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was humming a little tune while thinking about where to relax after get off work.

"Hmm? Someone from the Wuwei Division?"

Realizing that someone was approaching the Dali Temple quickly, Liu Rudi's eyes fixed.

Then, under the leadership of the general flag, several people brought Qi Shang and other four to Liu Rudi.

"What's going on? Your Wuwei Division's prison is full again, so you're starting to send people to our Dali Temple?"

Liu Rudi said sarcastically.

"According to the order of the pacification envoy, the prisoner shall be handed over to the Dali Temple."

Facing Liu Rudi, whose official rank was several levels higher than his, the general flag-taker showed no fear and spoke coldly.

"Tsk, what happened?"

Liu Rudi had long been accustomed to the condescending attitude of the people in the Wuwei Division. Unless a pacification envoy of the first level or one of the four elephants came in person, he would not be nice to anyone who came.

The general did not answer Liu Rudi, but asked his men to place the person next to Liu Rudi first.

"What are you doing? Forced buying and selling, right?"

Liu Rudi already wanted to curse, but the general didn't waste any words and told him everything Qi Shang had done and what Lord Guishu had said.

"Grass! (a kind of plant)"

"you..."

After hearing this, Liu Rudi started cursing.

The general flag was well prepared. After he finished speaking, he and his men quickly disappeared from the spot, leaving the other party alone to curse in the street.

"You bunch of damn bastards, I really want to @%&!..."
