Chapter 97 Born to be a general [ask for a monthly ticket! ]

Seeing the official's increasingly murderous aura, the shop assistants were almost crying with fear.

Liang Yue quickly dissuaded him, "Brother Cao, calm down. Don't think too much when we are out. Change these two dishes!"

"Yes, yes, yes..." The waiter quickly removed two plates of side dishes, completely unaware of what had just happened.

"Huh." Cao Yi breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks for stopping me. Sometimes I can't control myself when I see something. You know, we..."

"I understand." Liang Yue nodded silently. It was normal for people without any ties to be more sensitive. He changed the subject and said, "Let's talk about the case."

"Okay." Cao Yi agreed.

Liang Yue said: "Actually, I have two ideas about this case."

"One is to start with the person who built the formation at the bottom of the Tower of Babel. I didn't write this in the document. The underground formation was most likely built by the National Master Li Longchan and the Ministry of Works Formation Master Wu Mozi in collusion. But because there is no evidence, I didn't dare to write this suspicion down."

"The other route is to start from Zhengyang Lei, from the Ministry of Works to the Imperial Capital Guard."

"If the Khe San Society wanted to plan this conspiracy, it must have known about the two lines and was deeply involved in them."

Listening to his analysis, Cao Yi remained silent, only nodded in agreement, apparently respecting his analysis.

Liang Yue continued, "We can secretly investigate the unsubstantiated line of Dragon and Tiger Hall. Not many people know about the transaction between the National Master and Wu Mozi, so it's easy to lock on to the target."

"As for the Ministry of Industry, several people in Yueyang Trading Company have already made it clear that they are members of Xishan Society, but they were all planted as spies of the Ministry of Industry, which means that the person who arranged them is very likely to have problems."

"This is definitely not something that a fifth-rank or sixth-rank official could do. We must investigate higher up..." Liang Yue pointed his index finger upwards, "How far can you, the Horse Drinking Supervisor, investigate?"

"Tsk." Cao Yi sneered, "Don't worry, the Drinking Horse Supervisor is not afraid of anyone except the emperor."

Before he finished speaking, the waiter brought up two more dishes.

"Since you two guests don't like spicy cabbage, I have replaced it with freshly cut radish roots!" he said with a flattering smile.

"What roots do you want to cut?" Cao Yi frowned, and murderous intent burst out again.

"Radish roots." The waiter's hands trembled, and two plates of side dishes almost fell on the table. "They are just cut one by one. They are very fresh!"

"Where is my sword?" Cao Yi was about to draw his sword.

"Sir Cao, Sir Cao... It's not a crime. Ignorance is not a crime!" Liang Yue rushed over to stop him.

Good guy.

What kind of sensitivity is this?

I can't bear to hear any relevant words.

Previously, the guard at the Horse Drinking Station said that Cao Yi had a bad temper and would kill people at any time. He thought it was a bit exaggerated. After all, after some communication, he felt that Cao Yi was quite easy to talk to, and he was a generous person who didn't care too much.

Now I have discovered that this statement is absolutely true in certain scenarios.

The shop assistant was so frightened that he trembled repeatedly, "Sir, what's going on?"

"Take these two dishes away! Stop sending pickled vegetables and bring your signature dishes." Liang Yue shouted, "No pickled food or vegetable roots!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The shop assistant quickly took away the plate of radish roots.

"Huh..." After a while, Cao Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sorry, I lost my composure again."

"It's okay, I understand." Liang Yue looked at him compassionately and whispered, "But some things are over once they're over."

"I'll try my best to restrain myself." Cao Yi also said.

After calming down, he continued, "I will report to my foster father about the clues you mentioned about the Dragon and Tiger Hall and send someone to secretly investigate. As for the clue about the Ministry of Industry, we have already targeted a person."

"Who?" Liang Yue asked with concern.

"The left assistant minister of the Ministry of Industry, Guo Chongwen." Cao Yi said a name, "He once stood up for Yueyang Trading Company, and he was also the one who took the lead in guaranteeing the sale of Zhengyang Thunder. But those subordinate officials refused to reveal his name, and we can't just take action against an assistant minister. My adoptive father has sent people to Yuezhou to investigate. If they find out that he was the one who planted people in Yueyang Trading Company, we will arrest him immediately."

"This person..." Liang Yue heard the name he wanted and pointed at the table, "Must investigate thoroughly!"

Just at this moment, a middle-aged fat man who seemed to be the shop owner came over with a plate of food in his hand, followed by the waiter.

"My two lords, I heard that you two were angry just now. It's because our shop assistants were stupid and didn't treat you well." The shopkeeper smiled a little bit when he spoke, and seemed quite friendly. "I will give you a plate of our signature dish, spicy fried bull whip."

Liang Yue closed his eyes in despair.

Pull it down.

I won't eat this meal.

……

Liang Yue didn't get to have lunch and it took a lot of effort to pull Cao Yi back to the foot of the imperial city, so he hurried back.

At the foot of the imperial city, we cannot even say the root of the imperial city.

But at least the story is over, and the staff of the Horse Drinking Station have already started. Now on the one hand, they have to wait for their subsequent progress, and on the other hand, Liang Yue has to work hard himself. He plans to find the evidence collected by Zhang Xingkai himself, which is something that the Horse Drinking Station does not care much about.

Their main target was still the Khe San Society, and investigating the Works Department was just a side job, in order to dig out the hidden thorns within.

But before that, he went to the Evil Killing Division first.

This morning, Chen Ju and Pang Chun came to report to the Zhuxie Division. I wonder if they can pass the inspection. To avoid suspicion, Liang Yue did not accompany them.

When I entered the Zhuxie Yamen, I saw Chen Ju smiling at a small flower in the yard, "Ah, Miss Xu, you are so young, so I will call you sister. Hehe, if you don't say anything, I will take it as your consent."

"What are you doing?" Liang Yue walked forward and asked puzzledly.

"I'm chatting with Sister Xu." Chen Ju said, looking at the flowers and plants in front of him.

"Miss Xu?" Liang Yue took a look and roughly guessed what was going on. Xu Luzhi was Chen Su's disciple, and she learned the Yin-Yang magical power. Knowing some illusions was the most basic. She was probably annoyed by Chen Ju's harassment, so she resorted to a little trick.

With Chen Ju's level of cultivation, a little trick is enough to confuse him for three days and three nights.

"Then you two can chat." Seeing Xie Wenxi in the main hall, Liang Yue did not delay Chen Ju and stepped into the lobby again.

"Both of your friends are pretty good." Xie Wenxi said with a smile as soon as they met.

"Really?" Liang Yue smiled. "Master Xie, you don't have to say nice things to save my face. In fact, I know that although there is nothing wrong with their stance, they are definitely lacking in wisdom and morality."

"It doesn't matter." Xie Wenxi waved his hand and said, "This guy surnamed Chen is a little lacking in ability, but he said that he doesn't need to collect a monthly salary, and he can donate some money to the Evil Slaying Division. I think it's not impossible to let him in."

puff.

Pay to work.

Liang Yue looked back at Chen Ju, it turned out that talking to flowers and plants cost money.

"The one who screamed in chun." Xie Wenxi excitedly gave a thumbs up, "He actually has an immortal body!"

"What?" Liang Yue asked in surprise, "Dachun has an immortal body?"

Although I knew before that it was a bit strange that he would dream about the old man when he practiced martial arts, and I thought there was something magical about him, I didn't expect it to be so high.

After all, his talent and understanding are not very obvious.

Xie Wenxi introduced: "This kind of immortal body is called Overlord Body, and it is the seed of a natural god general."

"But his situation is a little strange. He is born with a general's seed and cannot hide it. He is different from ordinary people from the moment he is born. But he does not show it. His brain is not very bright. If we had not carefully examined his physique just now, we might not have discovered it."

Overlord Body...

Born to be a god...

Liang Yue's mind was filled with the image of Dachun, and he always felt it was difficult to connect it with the word "immortal body". When searching in his memory, Dachun seemed to be an ordinary big fool when he was a child.

Could it be related to the Enlightenment Tree?
In fact, the soul of this tree has always been under Ping'an Alley, so the children in the alley are likely to be gifted?

I think it is possible.

Now the Enlightenment Tree is in my home. If I stay there for a long time, my mother will probably develop an immortal body, right?

"Where is Dachun now?" Liang Yue asked again.

"He went home to see his mother." Xie Wenxi said with a smile, "He said he would tell his mother the good news first, and then tell you."

"You really are worthy of being my good brother." Liang Yue also said with a smile.

……

After taking a walk around the Zhuxie Yamen, he didn't see Senior Sister Wen, nor did he find anything to do, so he rode out again.

He came all the way to the Hong family where the headquarters of the Longya Gang was located, and reported to go find Bai Zhishan.

The leader of the Leopard Hall was soon called out.

After seeing Liang Yue, there was obvious envy in his eyes.

"I heard that Liang Du Wei Gaosheng has been promoted to Lord Liang. He is indeed a young and promising man full of vigor and vitality." Bai Zhishan bowed.

When he first heard the name Liang Yue, he was just a small guard, but he became a seventh-rank companion in such a short time.

Bai Zhishan sighed silently in his heart… In addition to one’s own efforts, one also needs to have a good father.

"It's just luck." Liang Yue also bowed and saluted, "I came to see Master Bai today because of Zhang Xingkai's matter."

"Xingkai?" Bai Zhishan was stunned for a moment, "Didn't he avenge his revenge?"

Mrs. Zhang and Qin Youfang, who plotted to murder Zhang Xingkai, are both dead. Since they cannot find out who is behind the murder, there is really nothing they can do.

"But his wish has not been fulfilled yet." Liang Yue said: "He wrote to you before he died, didn't he hope to make the evidence of the Ministry of Industry public? But now, the Lu family is still there."

Bai Zhishan looked around, then pulled Liang Yue away and said, "Master Liang, the Ministry of Industry has been looking for the evidence, and you have also been searching, but no one can find it."

"I figured out something not long ago." Liang Yue said suddenly.

He first raised a question: "Since Chairman Zhang wrote to you and asked you whether you should produce the evidence, why did he choose to fake his death the day before? After faking his death, he moved around and met with you, which would definitely increase the possibility of being exposed. He could have done this a day in advance."

This doubt did bother Liang Yue for a while.

"Hiss." Bai Zhishan fell into deep thought.

"I have a guess. Is it possible that he didn't want to see you at all?" Liang Yue said, "He just wanted to give you the evidence and let you decide whether to make it public. But because he was being monitored and he was aware of it, he couldn't say it too clearly, otherwise the evidence wouldn't be passed on."

"You mean..." Bai Zhishan speculated, "There is a secret hidden in that letter?"

"If he knew that the letter might be seen by others, then he must have hidden some signals in it. It's okay for others to see it, but you will understand it at a glance." Liang Yue said.

He had also read the letter at that time, which probably described Zhang Xingkai's inner struggle and made an appointment with Bai Zhishan to meet at Wangshan Pavilion, eighteen miles south of the city.

Liang Yue also didn't see any problems, but if his guess was correct, Bai Zhishan should be able to understand some of the information in it.

He had previously suspected that Bai Zhishan was keeping something from him, and that was why he came to ask today, but it didn't seem like that.

"He hid it in the letter?" Bai Zhishan's expression suddenly looked like he had been shot by an arrow. He was silent for a moment before he uttered, "Ah, I know..."

　Good morning.
