Chapter 866 All captured!

“Lao Liu, why are you so angry…”

"You, our Gu family's pet dog, can betray our Gu family, so why can't your housekeeper betray you?"

"Besides, you are really not a good person. You said you would run away, so you ran away. Why did you rush to silence others?"

Looking at the furious Liu Yun and recalling Liu Yun's smug face two days ago, Gu Dejiang's heart was filled with the pleasure of revenge.

Listening to Gu Dejiang's words, Liu Yun forced himself to calm down and said to Gu Dejiang in a deep voice:
"Gu, don't you forget it! I haven't given you the account book and the dirty laundry of your Gu family yet!"

Gu Dejiang sneered and waved his hand. The next second, a killer took out a stack of documents and pointed at them. Gu Dejiang said jokingly:

"Old Liu, are these the things you are talking about?"

"Old Liu, I really have to admit that you are a smart man. You hid these things very well. I almost didn't find them!"

"But you, a smart man, outsmarted yourself and made a fatal mistake!"

After he finished speaking, Gu Dejiang pointed at the butler Liu Huai who was standing respectfully and silently at the side, and said to Liu Yun with a smile:

“Old Liu, you really underestimate your butler. He knows everything about you, so with his help, I found the things easily…”

Liu Yun was furious when he heard this, and his angry eyes made him want to eat his butler Liu Huai alive. In response, Liu Huai said modestly:
"Fifth Master, you are too kind. I just did my best. You are really amazing for finding these things!"

"Liu Yun has been disloyal for many years, and I was forced to be his accomplice. Now I have met a wise master like you, Fifth Master. I am very lucky and I am willing to serve you like a dog and a horse!"

In front of Liu Yun, listening to Liu Huai's flattery, Gu Dejiang laughed proudly:
"Old Liu, your butler is just like you. He always speaks in a nice way!"

Facing Gu Dejiang's ridicule, Liu Yun sighed and said to Gu Dejiang seriously:

"Master Wu, you win. I, Liu Yun, admit defeat!"

Don't you want me to be the scapegoat? I accept it! "

Hearing Liu Yun's words, Gu Dejiang's eyes suddenly gleamed with a sharp light. He was extremely angry about Liu Yun's betrayal. If he had followed his previous methods, he would not have had any nonsense with Liu Yun at all. He would have directly skinned Liu Yun and burned him to death, letting him slowly die in pain and despair.

The reason why he is going against his usual behavior and arguing with Liu Yun here is naturally because Liu Yun is still worthy of taking the blame··································

The Gu family was very frightened about the matter of Daxinchang Bank. They felt that the Coordination Office might have already found out about them, so they were now eager to find a scapegoat to take all the blame for them so that the case could be closed as soon as possible!

Liu Yun, the head of the Liu family and the owner of the Daxinchang Bank, is undoubtedly the best scapegoat!
Although Liu Yun is willing to admit it now, based on Gu Dejiang's understanding of him, this cunning guy might have some conditions!
As expected, facing Gu Dejiang's gaze, Liu Yun said in a deep voice:

"Master Wu, I can be the scapegoat, but I have two conditions!"

"The first condition is that I want you to let my family go and send them to a safe place!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yun looked at Liu Huai fiercely and said resentfully:
"The second condition is that I want that bastard Liu Huai to be buried with me!"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Huai was so frightened that he trembled all over. Fearing that Gu Dejiang would agree to Liu Yun's conditions, he immediately looked at Gu Dejiang beside him for help.

At this time, listening to Liu Yun's conditions, Gu Dejiang said with disdain:

"Liu Yun, it has come to this, do you still think you are qualified to negotiate terms with me?"

Liu Yun heard this and preached fearlessly:
“Fifth Master, of course you can kill me now, and then pretend that I committed suicide out of fear of the crime…”

"But do you think that's convincing? Can it be hidden from the investigation of the Coordination Office?"

"Excuse me for being blunt, but the best way to clear your Gu family of suspicion right now is to hand me over alive to the Coordination Office, and then let me die during their torture!"

Gu Dejiang narrowed his eyes when he heard this, but he did not refute it like before. Seeing this, Liu Huai was so scared that he quickly said:
"Fifth Master, Liu Yun is talking nonsense. You must not listen to his slander!"

At this time, Liu Yun snorted coldly:

"Fifth Master, are you in need of someone to give you advice?"

"This bastard is a poisonous snake. He can betray me today and you tomorrow. Are you keeping him around waiting for him to bite you one day?"

After hearing this, Liu Huai became even more anxious. Just when he was about to say something, Gu Dejiang waved his hand, and the killer who received the order immediately stabbed Liu Huai in the back with the dagger in his hand.

Liu Huai, who was stabbed in the vitals, fell to the ground, his eyes full of resentment and indignation. He didn't understand why Liu Yun was not dead yet but he had been killed first.

Looking at the dead Liu Huai, Liu Yun spat fiercely and said, "You betrayed me, what do you think will be your fate?"

After dealing with Liu Huai, Gu Dejiang ordered:

“Leave a few people to deal with some of the things here, and the others take them away for me…”

"Yes!" the killers said in unison:

Just when Gu Dejiang thought that everything was going on as normal, suddenly footsteps were heard from both sides of the road. Gu Dejiang's face changed immediately when he heard the footsteps.

The next second, dozens of torches lit up around, and hundreds of agents from the Coordination Office surrounded them.

"Hold your head with your hands! Kneel on the ground!"

"The Coordination Office is handling this case. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!" "Everyone, kneel down!"

Seeing the agents from the Coordination Office surrounding him, Gu Dejiang was completely discouraged, but he was unwilling to surrender like this. He immediately waved the Miao Dao in his hand and ordered the killers:
"Fight them!"

As soon as Gu Dejiang finished speaking, there was a sound of gunshot, and a bullet hit Gu Dejiang's thigh. Gu Dejiang fell to the ground on the spot, wailing in pain.

Seeing Gu Dejiang like this, some killers obeyed Gu Dejiang's orders and resisted stubbornly, while some killers laid down their weapons and surrendered.

It only took a cup of tea for the agents from the Coordination Office to stabilize the situation and arrest all these people.

An hour later, at Ye Mansion.

Huo San, who was hunched over and looking at the floor, reported to Ye Mingsheng, who was leaning on Shen Yutong's arms enjoying an eye massage:

"Your Excellency, all the criminals involved in the case have been arrested, and the account books of Daxinchang and the evidence of the Gu family's crimes have also been obtained!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Mingsheng said calmly:

“You guys at the Coordination Office have worked hard. Please hand over all the witnesses and physical evidence to the Legal Affairs Bureau…”

As soon as Huo San said this, a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes. However, since Ye Mingsheng had already given the order, all he could do was to carry it out obediently. He then said:
"As you command! I'll have my men hand over everything to the Legal Affairs Bureau right now!"

Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly and instructed:

"It's late, go back and rest!"

Huo San preached respectfully:
"Thank you for your concern, sir. I will take my leave now!"

After he finished speaking, Huo San bowed his body and slowly retreated. From beginning to end, he did not dare to look Shen Yutong in the eye.

Patting Shen Yutong's little hand, Ye Mingsheng ordered:

"Prepare some hot water for me, I'll take a bath here later!"

Shen Yutong was also a smart woman. She nodded and walked out of the room. Seeing Shen Yutong leaving, Ye Mingsheng, who knew that she was going to inform someone, showed some disdain at the corner of his mouth. He immediately asked someone to call Ye Cheng in and asked:
"Where is Gu Shouting now?"

Listening to Ye Mingsheng's question, Ye Cheng said without hesitation:
"Sir, Bei'an County reported an hour ago that Gu Shouting and his group have arrived in Bei'an. If nothing goes wrong, they will arrive in Yijing tomorrow night at the earliest. If not, they will arrive in Yijing at noon the day after tomorrow!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Mingsheng ordered:
“After Gu Shouting returns to Yijing, let him live in Sanshan Villa. Don’t let him return to the Gu family, and don’t let him meet other people…”

"Yes!"

At the junction of Yun and Guanzhong, Shizhou

"Marshal Yang is indeed the great savior of the imperial court. He wiped out an entire battalion of the Fengwu Army with just one move. This is truly cause for celebration!"

"Marshal Yang has been recuperating for many years, but he is still as sharp as ever. The battle of Shizhou made the Fengwu Army terrified!"

"Compared to Marshal Yang, Ye Mingsheng is just an ignorant little brat. In my opinion, in this battle, our Shenwu Army must not only lift the siege of Jinyang, but also take over Jinzhong, so that the bastard Ye Mingsheng can have a good taste of our Marshal Yang's power!"

···········
···········
A group of imperial guards in the government office were talking happily. In the past year or so, they had suffered many setbacks at the hands of the Fengwu Army. Now facing the Fengwu Army again, they were under considerable psychological pressure.

Now that they have finally been able to defeat the Fengwu Army and almost wiped out an entire battalion of the Fengwu Army, they are undoubtedly very excited and looking forward to a bright future.

Just when the generals in the room were discussing heatedly, a slight cough was heard in the room. With the appearance of the cough, the generals who had already begun discussing the division of Ye Mingsheng's wives and concubines immediately closed their excited mouths.

Glancing at the soldiers in the room, Yang Chongqing ordered in a deep voice:
"I know you all have high aspirations, but you have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time!"

"Governor Wang and tens of thousands of Yunbing troops in Jinyang City are in dire straits, so our top priority now is to rescue them!"

"Once we resolve the crisis in Jinyang, it will be time to settle accounts with the Fengwu Army and Ye Mingsheng!"

Yang Chongqing's words were powerful and immediately attracted the support of all the generals. Seeing that the military morale was high, he also began to make military deployments.

Half an hour later, Yang Chongqing completed the deployment and asked his men to go down and make preparations, while he himself returned to the study.

At this moment, on this desk, there is a portrait!
Looking at the face in the portrait that was both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar, Yang Chongqing felt somewhat complicated.

In order to prevent Shangguan Hongyuan from getting suspicious, Yang Chongqing pretended to be sick at home for many years. It was not until Shangguan Hongyuan's life was coming to an end that he chose the right time to announce that he had recovered from his injury and could lead the troops into battle!

During these years at home, although Yang Chongqing seemed to be oblivious to the world outside and focused on recuperating at home, he was actually paying close attention to the changes in the situation in the court and the world!
In the past few years, the biggest event in the Great Zhou Dynasty is undoubtedly the rise of the Fengwu Army!
There is no other one besides this!

And because the main generals of the Fengwu Army, including Ye Mingsheng, He Jingyun, Yuan Song, Lin Huaiwu and others all had backgrounds in the Imperial Guard, Yang Chongqing paid special attention to the Fengwu Army···························

Among these people, Yang Chongqing initially paid the most attention to He Jingyun. The two knew each other in Luoan but their relationship was average. Later, He Jingyun killed the Cuman envoy. Yang Chongqing admired He Jingyun's courage and pleaded for He Jingyun.

However, because of their ordinary friendship, and the fact that He Jingyun was later transferred to Hebei and Henan by Ye Mingsheng, Yang Chongqing's attention gradually shifted to Yuan Song, who was known as the first general of the Fengwu Army!
Although he knew from Yuan Song's resume that Yuan Song had once served under him, Yang Chongqing did not think much about it. After all, when he was the commander of the Longxiang Army, he had tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, so a low-level military officer would naturally not be in his eyes.

However, when he received Yuan Song's portrait from the Supervisory Office yesterday and saw Yuan Song's face, Yang Chongqing's memories that had been sealed for many years slowly began to unfold.

Yang Chongqing felt that if he remembered correctly, when he led his troops to fight the Cumans on the grassland, he rewarded Yuan Song for his meritorious service in the battle and promoted him from a small sergeant to a captain. He originally admired Yuan Song very much and was planning to transfer him to his own personal guard.

However, later on, because he was promoted to commander of the Shenwu Army, the plan to transfer Yuan Song to his personal guard came to nothing!
The world is so unpredictable. I didn’t expect that many years later, Yuan Song would follow Ye Mingsheng and become the number one general of the Fengwu Army!

If I had transferred him here back then, maybe things would be completely different now································
