Chapter 29 We Are All Flaws
Wei Ningbo, who had just experienced the bloodshed on the border, deeply understood that if the artifact list fell into the hands of Yuan Meng, to what extent would it harm the border troops?
Just like this, when Guo Juxia and Yu Huatian were pleading for merit for Su Qing in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Wang Yue also spoke up for him, and that is how Su Qing was promoted from the pacification envoy to the commander-in-chief.

As for the former assistant commander, he was demoted to the position of pacification envoy because the cases of Qi Daxueshi and Lin Zhennan could never be solved.

Su Qing immediately stood up and bowed sincerely: "Thank you, Lord Weining!"

His gratitude came from the heart.

The difference between a pacification envoy and a deputy commander is that they are from the fourth rank to the regular fourth rank, but the skill points obtained are a qualitative change.

The pacification envoy can get 100 skill points every day, and the commanding officer can get 200 points every day.

Even though reaching the celestial realm requires five thousand skill points, it is no longer far away.

"Mr. Su is too polite.

Although you are very young, you have made up your mind to take back the artifact list, discover the ruins of Xixia Blackwater City, and behead the evil Gongsun Wulong.

correct!

Even An Shigeng, the culprit in the Bronze Mold Case, died at your hands. You deserved the title of Deputy Commander."

Weiningbo quickly waved his hand and told him not to be polite.

Su Qing sincerely admired Wang Yue's achievements as a scholar and a count.

Wang Yue knew that Su Qingnian had a bright future, so he wanted to support him.

For a while, the few of them had a great time talking to each other.

……

The Jinyiwei prison was dark all around.

He Er, Zhang Ying and Song Nanping were chained to wooden stakes. The ground beneath their feet was stained dark red with blood, and in front of them were grinning Jinyiwei jailers. It was a scene like hell.

The three of them had already been through severe torture.

"Sir, the conspiracy of He Er, Zhang Ying, and Song Nanping to sell official positions and titles has been proven to be irrefutable. Not only is the deceased head of the office, Zheng Chong, implicated, but also Cao Tian, ​​a centurion of the Eastern Depot!

Just now, the adults asked us to find out and report it immediately.

However, at this time, Lord Weining and the Chief Constable of the Six Gates were both there.

If we implicate Cao Tian, ​​the Eastern Depot's Criminal Justice Hundred, in front of them, it might put the Commanding Officer in a difficult position."

Xiang Jing, a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, is also Ying Wuqiu's confidant and is obviously a veteran of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

He knew that once the matter involved the East Factory, it needed to be handled with caution.

If the assistant commander had no intention of completely breaking off relations with the East Factory, reporting it in person would put him in a dilemma.

Ying Wuqiu was also a smart man and immediately understood Xiang Jing's considerations.

However, he shook his head: "Difficult?
What's the problem?

If the deputy commander dares to kill Zheng Zhangban with a single blow, he will dare to capture the Hundred Households of Justice Cao Tian. There is no need to worry at all."

Sure enough, Dang Ying Wuqiu reported the matter.

Su Qing's answer was firm: "Since the Eastern Depot's Criminal Justice Officer is involved, then bring him back.

Ying Wuqiu, you need to stabilize the Dongcheng Police Station, arrest Cao Tian, ​​and hand him over to others!"

As he spoke, he walked out of the flower hall and asked, "Is there anyone who would like to volunteer to bring Cao Tian from the East Factory to justice?"

For a moment, there was silence all around.

Obviously, even with Su Qing's previous morale boost.

Under the pressure of the Eastern Depot, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had been kneeling for too long and it was not easy for them to stand up.

They are instinctively afraid.

"My lord, I am willing to go!"

As the voice sounded, a figure walked out.

This person appears to be gentle and refined, but speaks slowly and methodically.

However, Su Qing could see that beneath his elegant temperament, there was a burning resentment and ambition, which made him exude a beast-like charm that was both terrifying and intimidating.

"what's your name?"

"Lu Wenzhao!"

"Forehead!

Is it him? "

Su Qing was not unfamiliar with the three words Lu Wenzhao.

This is a character from the movie Swords of Legends.

After watching Sword of the Assassin, Su Qing forgot what kind of emotional story happened between the protagonist Shen Lian and Hokusai.

The one I remember most is the supporting character Lu Wenzhao.

Who is Lu Wenzhao?

The first time I saw him, I felt that he was a bad guy. The second time I saw him, I felt that he was a good guy who died in an unfortunate way. After the Battle of Sarhu, Lu Wenzhao decided to change his way of life to save his endangered country.

At that time, the court was full of corrupt officials, and the Jinyiwei, who were supposed to protect the imperial power and maintain political stability, became the running dogs of the Dongchang.

Since the court is full of corrupt officials, if he wants to succeed, he must join them.

For his ideals, he can really abandon everything.

In order to get close to Wei Zhongxian, he spent two hundred taels of silver to bribe the people around the eunuch Wei Zhongxian, and followed the eunuch with his head lowered and his eyes looking shy as he went fishing.

The fishhook moved slightly, but Wei Zhongxian remained indifferent.

Lu Wenzhao knew that the eunuch was not interested in this, but he only had two hundred taels of silver and this was his only chance.

So he jumped into the lake with his official uniform in hand and put the fish on the hook.

Who could have imagined that this flatterer was the man who bravely killed the enemy on the battlefield of Sarhu eight years ago?

After Wei Zhongxian left, Lu Wenzhao suddenly smiled when facing the fish, and a tear fell from his smile.

This smile and this tear contained self-mockery for giving up his integrity and a farewell to the past Lu Wenzhao. It could be said that it was a mixture of emotions.

It was also after watching Swords of the Assassin that Su Qing realized that not all villains in TV dramas are bad guys.

For the sake of his ideal, Lu Wenzhao gave up all his dignity and struggle.

He thought that the King Xin he followed should do the same.

In fact, no matter what position he climbs to, he is ultimately just a cannon fodder that can be abandoned at any time by those in power.

I felt very suffocated and heartbroken when I saw the end.

Lu Wenzhao is dead.

He died at the hands of his follower, Prince Xin.

Before his death, Lu Wenzhao once asked, "Junior sister, how could this happen?"

When asking this question, Lu Wenzhao already knew that Prince Xin wanted to kill them all.

But he couldn't convince himself to believe in his own judgment, so Ding Baiying had to say this.

And Ding Baiying's words - "Brother, don't you understand? To His Highness, you and I are both flaws."

This sentence directly destroyed Lu Wenzhao's psychological defenses and caused his faith to collapse.

Lu Wenzhao in The Blade of the Assassin is undoubtedly a tragic character.

Such a person with lofty ambitions and the intention to change the world.

His fate shouldn't have been like this.

"Looking at Lu Wenzhao's current attire, he should be just a general, a passionate man with lofty ambitions.

I should help people like this!"

Thinking in his heart, Su Qing's eyes fell on Lu Wenzhao: "From now on, you are the trial thousand households of Dongcheng.

You just need to remember one thing: the Jinyiwei is authorized by the emperor.

Only Your Majesty can command our respect. When we capture Cao Tian, ​​if he resists or flees out of fear of punishment, we can execute him first and report to you later."

……

The commercial street of Changlefang has a different layout from the bustling business district with constant comings and goings of people.

Jingyangfang is a high-quality residential area.

The houses here are lined up one after another.

Thousands of courtyards, all made of green bricks and tiles, are connected by alleys, forming deep lanes and high walls.

The alleys are narrow and winding, with hundreds of streets and alleys twisting and turning, crisscrossing each other, all paved with large bluestone slabs, and the forms are similar. When you come here, it is like walking into a maze and it is difficult to find your way.

Especially at this time of darkness, with only the dim lights coming from the houses, it feels like entering a ghost town.

But there is a very safe feeling here.

Those who can buy houses here are all dignitaries.

Different from eunuchs in other dynasties, eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty not only served the emperor and his concubines in the palace, but also performed various duties outside the palace.

Such duties as managing royal properties, shops, collecting taxes, etc. required them to live outside the palace.

This is a house called Guiyuanju.

If you look at it from the outside, it is actually no different from other houses, except that the door decoration is more exquisite.

But the inside is another story. It is not only spacious and elegant, but also the gardens and courtyards are integrated into one, the layout is quiet, and the architecture is unique and distinctive.

This manor named Guiyuanju is dominated by the main hall, with water and rocks as the background. The corridors and rockery run through and separate it, with ups and downs, twists and turns, and a coexistence of virtual and real.

To the north of the pool is a small building with a hip roof, five rooms and two floors, with upturned eaves, like a butterfly flapping its wings about to take flight. It is very unique, and from its high vantage point one can overlook the entire Guiyuanju.

Cao Tian, ​​a centurion of the Eastern Depot, was taking a nap in the attic.
