Chapter 1494: Grand Secretary Cui Surrender 2 Chapter 1494: Grand Secretary Cui Surrender 2 He waved his hand domineeringly.
“Take him down!”
No matter how unwilling the jailer was, he had to make a choice at this time.
Didn’t you see that Assistant Minister Wan’s fingers were broken?
If he disobeyed again, he would be next.
He used all his strength and rushed forward.
Ma Liang, Yi Yiteng, and the others ‘eyes spewed fire, and their hands clenched into fists.
They didn’t dare to say a word, and they could only watch helplessly as they were taken down and tied up with iron chains.
…
* *
Vigorous and powerful footsteps came from outside.
The leaders were Jiu Xuanji and Lu Zhantang.
Although the latter had just been promoted to the Scarlet Heaven Hall, the former had been in charge of them for a period of time.
Coupled with the interchanging of positions, the internal factions were almost wiped out.
Lu Zhantang only brought Xiao Xiaoxiao with him.
He didn’t bring anyone else.
She was promoted to an angel.
There was no need to rack his brains and just get started.
On the way here.
Zhang Ronghua ordered people to inform them that since the sect was involved, the two departments would naturally end up in the same situation.
There would be nothing wrong.
Everyone’s heart skipped a beat and they all panicked.
They didn’t expect Xia Hou to be so ruthless to let these ruthless people take over.
Even Dou Jiande was the same.
Panic flashed in his eyes, and the development of the matter seemed to be out of control.
“Greetings, Special Envoy!”Jiu Xuanji and Lu Zhantang cupped their fists and bowed.
” Take them all away!” Zhang Ronghua ordered.” Lock them up in Nether Prison!”
“Yes, sir!” Lu Zhantang waved his hand, and the people from the Scarlet Heaven Palace rushed forward and took down Wan Zhaoyang and the others.
“Let’s go!”Zhang Ronghua said.
He took the lead and left the prison.
Tie Changlin, Li Daoran, and the others returned.
They would continue to publicize and create momentum tomorrow to praise Pei Caihua’s great achievements.
Zhang Ronghua got on the Tianji carriage and rushed to Nether Prison with his men.
..
The news quickly spread.
When the important figures of the various sects heard this, they were all shocked.
The first thought that came to their minds was that Zhang Ronghua had gone crazy!
Wan Zhaoyang was the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Justice, a second-grade official, and a member of the Supreme Court and the Imperial Censorate.
How could he be arrested just like that?
He even let the two departments interfere.
Serious and thorny, they all came up with countermeasures.
The Xia Emperor knew of this matter, but he didn’t comment on it.
He took a sip of tea, then consumed a spirit herb that was about fifteen years old, and used the simplified version of the Celestial Thearch’s God-Sealing Technique to refine it.
He Wenxuan flipped over the table in anger.
He then smashed the vases, calligraphy, and other expensive items.
His face was terrifyingly dark.
He ordered,” Prepare the carriage!”
They arrived at Cui Manor.
The butler had been waiting at the door for a long time.
His face was tense, and the coldness he emitted was very cold.
When he saw him, he said,” Master is waiting for you!”
He led the way and walked quickly towards the backyard.
He Wenxuan followed.
He entered the study.
The butler closed the door from the outside and stood guard at the door, not allowing anyone to approach.
Grand Elder Cui’s face was cold, and he exuded an imposing aura.
Sitting on the chair, the aura alone was suffocating.
It was as if he was in the center of a storm and could be annihilated at any moment.
“Xia Hou is too much!”He Wenxuan cursed.
With just a little gossip, Wan Zhaoyang and the others were captured.
The Ministry of Justice’s power was almost wiped out in one fell swoop.
Even the Imperial Censorate and the Supreme Court suffered great losses.”
Grand Elder Cui watched expressionlessly, allowing him to find out.
After a long while, He Wenxuan stopped and hurriedly asked,”Do you still have a way?”Â
Grand Elder Cui had seen far.
The fight had reached its climax, and both sides were fighting for real.
It didn’t matter whether Dou Jiande betrayed them or not.
Xia Hou had attacked with lightning speed and imprisoned Wan Zhaoyang and the others in Nether Prison.
To put it bluntly, it was basically over for them to fall into his hands.
The possibility of them coming out was very low.
With his usual style, he should still have a backup plan.
He would wait for them to jump in and take down as many as they came.
Even though they could take down some people from Xia Hou’s faction, they would definitely be uprooted, killed, and confiscated.
The wisest choice, even if they were unwilling to admit it, was to stop the losses in time.
Only then could the faction survive and their years of hard work not go to waste.
If they continued to pretend to be a grandson and quietly develop and grow, there might still be a chance for them to rise.
This was his student, and he had to decide.
He Wenxuan’s eyes lit up, thinking that his teacher had thought of a countermeasure.
Elder Cui Ge said,” First, continue to fight.
There’s a 70% to 80% chance that our faction will be wiped out.
Once we lose our position, I don’t have to tell you what will happen to our family and friends.
You should know!
The second is to admit defeat.
There are still about ten days before I retire.
I will give up my position in advance in exchange for Xia Hou to stop.”
He Wenxuan was stunned.
He wondered if he had heard wrongly.
When he regained his senses, he was furious.
He almost roared out,” You can’t…!”
The last word ” can ” seemed to be stuck in his throat.
He just couldn’t say it.
Bang!
He slammed his fist on the table.
Who would want to die if they could live?
Even dogs understood this logic, let alone humans!
This was the best choice at the moment.
If they continued to fight, they might be able to take a piece of Xia Hou’s flesh, but they would all be finished, including their teacher.
” Calm down,” Grand Elder Cui said as he poured two cups of tea and handed one over.
He Wenxuan finished the tea in one gulp and slammed the teacup on the table.
Grand Elder Cui comforted him.” You are still young.
You will have a chance to enter the pavilion if you endure.
If you lose your power, not only will you have the power you have now, but even the beautiful young concubine you just married will become someone else’s plaything.”
He Wenxuan tried hard to open his mouth, but in the end, he closed it again.
This was the truth!
Grand Elder Cui continued,” Wan Zhaoyang and the others couldn’t save him.
As the chief officer, he couldn’t even control his own people, which put us in a passive position.
He even let Xia Hou seize the opportunity to let the True Dragon Palace and the Red Sky Palace fall into this situation.
He only has himself to blame.
But his family, He Zhangchi, and the other officials should be fine.”
