Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 213 Assassin
While Jia Rui was busy making money, Zhou Lang also completed the task given to him by Jia Rui perfectly.

If we don’t talk about professional matters, we have to leave them to professionals.

As for Jia Rui's kind of torture, which involves hitting a board and whipping a whip, although it can make people suffer physical pain, it only ends there. Some people with a strong will can endure it.

After Zhou Lang found a professional and used the torture device, Qian Cheng could barely hold on at the beginning, but later Qian Cheng wanted to die immediately.

But even if he wanted to die, it would not be that easy. With the constant supply of Jia Rui's elixir, the medicinal properties of the Jiuhua Jade Dew Pills had even accumulated in his body.

Even if he wants to die now, it's not that easy anymore.

Of course, Zhou Lang was not a fool. He would not use all the medicine given by Jia Rui on a dying person. He still secretly hid some.

But just like this, it was enough to hang Qian Cheng's life and make him suffer endless torture.

After three or four days of this, Qian Cheng's will was finally defeated.

He no longer cares about being an emperor or not. His only thought now is to die quickly. In order to die, he will say anything.

Therefore, he immediately summoned the emperor to him and told him all the causes and consequences of asking him to make money in Gansu.

Zhou Lang was shocked when he got the confession. Although they were all members of the Supreme Emperor, they still feared the emperor and his power.

Therefore, Zhou Lang was frightened when faced with this confession.

This kind of thing was not something that his little shoulders could bear, so he quickly came to Jia Rui with the confession.

At this time, Jia Rui was counting banknotes in the study.

These corrupt officials are really rich.

In just a few days, Jia Rui collected nearly 50 cars of silver. Is this comparable to Jia Rui's income in two or three years?

This is only a small half, the big ones haven’t come yet.

You must know that these people who are scared to death are all small officials. Real officials with backing will not be so anxious. They have to wait for the backing of the DPRK first. Can you excuse them?

"Uncle, General Zhou wants to see you." Wangcai walked in and reported to Jia Rui.

If we say that Wangcai and Jia Rui came out this time, they also made a lot of money.

These days, if the family members of those officials want to see Jia Rui, they must first open the door to Wangcai. Can they not give Wangcai money?
Therefore, Wangcai also collected a thousand taels of silver this time. After returning to the capital, he can buy a small yard. If he is more cruel, he can buy a few more servants.

Jia Rui folded the banknotes in his hand again, then found a cloth bag and packed it carefully, then put it in the cabinet next to it.

"Let him in!"

With Jia Rui's words, Wangcai dared to lead Zhou Lang into Jia Rui's study.

When Zhou Lang saw Jia Rui, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed upward.

"I will see you in the end."

"Get up."

Zhou Lang quickly stood up and stood aside obediently, waiting for Jia Rui to ask questions.

"Has Qian Cheng been recruited?"

"Sir, Qian Cheng can't survive the punishment, so he has already been punished."

With that said, Zhou Lang delivered Qian Cheng's confession to Jia Rui's desk.

Jia Rui picked up the confession and flipped through it, then his face lit up.

I finally found your trap. Let me see how you evade and evade this time.

It turns out that this common word clearly states that the emperor asked Qian Cheng to give him money several times. Qian Cheng had no choice but to come up with this idea. He thought that after doing this, It will be stable for a few years.

That's probably what it means.

Jia Rui touched the confession, "Emperor, Emperor, you just offended the Supreme Emperor some time ago, and asked the Supreme Emperor to help Prince Yizhong. This time there is such a big trap. I don't believe that the Supreme Emperor can let you go."

"Okay, I understand. You can go back and rest. You have worked hard these two days."

Jia Rui waved his hand and asked Zhou Lang to retreat.

After that, Jia Rui began to write memorials in the study.

This time, Jia Rui wanted to put the emperor to death. He put all the problems in Gansu on the emperor's head.

It is said that the emperor secretly bribed Qian Cheng, the governor of Gansu, to collect money in Gansu in order to gain money.

Qian Cheng was forced by the emperor to have no choice but to embezzle desperately, but the money he embezzled could not keep up with the emperor's collection, so Qian Cheng had to direct this drama.

Not only that, Jia Rui also attached all of Qian Cheng's confession.

Even if it was perfect this time, the emperor couldn't refute it even if he had a hundred mouths to speak.

After Jia Rui finished writing the memorial, he placed it in the cabinet next to his desk and locked it with a key. He prepared to send the savior to the capital through the Intelligence Department tomorrow.

The Intelligence Department that Dai Quan is in charge of has its minions all over the empire, and the Intelligence Department has its headquarters in every provincial capital.Jia Rui has been busy in the past two days and has not gone to the Intelligence Department yet. He plans to go to the Intelligence Department tomorrow. On the one hand, he will understand the situation in Gansu after this rectification, and on the other hand, he will send this memorial.

Because good news came today, Jia Rui had a rare moment of joy. He had a banquet set up and he drank by himself until midnight.

In the second half of the night, Jia Rui got a little drunk, so he just spent the night on the small bed in the study.

Jia Rui had indeed drank too much, and as soon as his head hit the pillow, he started snoring loudly.

Just after Jia Rui fell asleep, the kitchen door creaked softly, and then a man in black walked in quietly from the outside.

The man in black entered the room, quickly turned around and closed the door, and then observed the entire study under the dim moonlight.

Finally, he stared at Jia Rui, who was sleeping soundly on the small bed. After a while, he saw that Jia Rui showed no signs of waking up, and then he quietly walked straight to the desk.

The man in black came to the desk, flipped through Jia Rui's official documents, and looked at them one by one under the luminous light.

At this time, Jia Rui, who was already asleep on the small bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

It turned out that Jia Rui had already noticed when the man in black pushed the door open just now.

After all, Jia Rui possesses the Nine-Yang Divine Art, which is an unparalleled miraculous skill. Not a single movement or sound within a radius of ten feet can escape Jia Rui's ears, and not a single plant or tree can escape Jia Rui's spiritual sense.

Although he drank too much in the afternoon and was a little drowsy, the Nine Yang Magic was indeed a unique skill. It was operating automatically and had already reduced Jia Rui's drunkenness a lot.

Therefore, the small sound of pushing the door just now also woke up Jia Rui.

At first, Jia Rui thought it was Sister You who came to serve him, but soon he felt something was wrong because this person's breathing was different from Sister You's.

Moreover, this person did not act immediately after entering the door, but stood at the door and waited for a long time.

This is not right.

After Jia Rui noticed something strange, he did not open his eyes immediately, but still pretended to be asleep. He wanted to see what this person's purpose was.

Later, he found that the man in black went to his desk and flipped through the documents. Jia Rui realized that what the man in black was looking for was Qian Cheng's confession, or maybe even his own memorial.

After realizing his purpose, Jia Rui naturally couldn't let him continue his actions. If Qian Cheng's memorial was ruined, wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain?

So Jia Rui opened his eyes, gently floated off the cot, and then came behind the man in black on tiptoe.

Jia Rui thought that this man in black had some abilities, but he couldn't realize that this martial arts skill came from another time and space.

But Jia Rui still underestimated the power of this world. When Jia Rui got behind the man in black, the man in black suddenly turned around and pointed a bright dagger in his hand straight at Jia Rui's throat.

It turns out that the man in black had already discovered Jia Rui when he was acting, but he pretended not to know, hoping to catch Jia Rui by surprise and take him off guard.

What a Jia Rui, when faced with the dagger going straight to his throat, he easily dodged it with an iron bridge.

After that, Jia Rui slid back a few feet on his toes and got out of the way of the man in black.

By this time, the two people were half a foot apart.

"Good work." Jia Rui praised.

But the man in black had sharp eyes. It seemed that he did not expect that Jia Rui had such skills.

"Who sent you here? Tell me and I will let you live, otherwise you will not be able to leave my mansion today."

The man in black didn't talk to Jia Rui. He rushed forward and stabbed forward with the dagger in his hand. He saw seven or eight cold stars appearing in front of Jia Rui, covering his body.

Jia Rui laughed, and then used the Nine Sun Magic Skill, and a one-foot wall of energy immediately appeared around his body.

This is a manifestation of the Nine Yang Divine Skill that has been practiced to the extreme.

Since ancient times, no one has practiced to this level, and only Jia Rui, who bought it with money through the system, can reach this level.

The cold star swung by the man in black hit Jia Rui's energy wall and was immediately bounced back.

Then Jia Rui took a step forward and waved a burst of energy with his left hand, going straight to the man's chest.

It was obvious that the black man was practicing physical training, and he didn't even know the existence of Qigong.

As a result, Jia Rui accidentally hit him in the chest, flew back a foot and fell to the wall.

Just when Jia Rui thought he was done and wanted to go over and catch the man in black, the man in black jumped up on the spot, smashed the window and flew out.

The man in black had just arrived in the yard, and before he could make another move, several sharp arrows flew over from the wall and headed straight for the man in black.

The black man was also very powerful. He was moving around on the ground, and only a few arrows were missed.

But by the time the man in black wanted to leave, it was already too late.

At this time, the door to the courtyard was knocked open, and hundreds of soldiers broke in from the outside, each armed with knives and guns and tightly surrounding the black people.

Jia Rui also walked out of the study, looked at the men in black surrounded by the yard and said with a smile:
"Your kung fu is good. If you tell me your background, I will keep my promise and let you go."

It turns out that this was the first time Jia Rui met someone who could compete with him in the world of Red Mansions, so he started to love talents.
