While Zhu Jinxuan was still begging Bai Shier to visit many yamen in Yangzhou Prefecture for her at night and looking for some useful clues, Guo Ju, who was responsible for the emperor, had already arrived in Huai'an Prefecture.

Speaking of which, Guo Ju, who has not been out of the world for ten years, has entered the world again this time, and is still as resolute as he had been ten years ago. He climbed Mount Tai alone and forced Taoist Master Tianqi, the leader of the Dongyue Sword Sect, to hand over the head of the Iron Sword, and kept it by Liusanmen for five years. Five years later, if the Dongyue Sword Sect has no bad record, he can get the Iron Sword back.

In order to preserve the inheritance of the Dongyue Sword Sect's mountain gate, Tianqi could only suffer this great humiliation. However, in anger, he also posted a lot of heroic posts and decided to resign from the position of leader and pass on the position of leader to his subordinate disciples. Jianchengzi, who was not yet thirty years old, and after recruiting disciples next year, he blocked the mountain gate and devoted himself to the disciples. Before he could get the iron sword of the leader back, he would no longer ask about the affairs of the world.

At Tulai Academy, Hu Yan, the director of Tulai Academy, drove all the professors except the classics, history, and collections out of the mountain gate, so that Tulai Academy will no longer be a sect in the world of the world. It is equivalent to indirectly destroying a second-rate sect that is well-known in the world.

In just a few days, two major sects, one was broken and the other was destroyed, and Guo Ju was not bad.

But even though Guo Ju was as cruel as he came to the Qingjiang Gang General Hall, he was still a little nervous.

The Qingjiang Gang's reputation in the world may not be as good as that in the Zenzu Temple and Taihe Mountain, but its nature determines that Guo Ju, the general captain of the Six Gates, who represented the court, is even more difficult to deal with.

In fact, if it were not forbidden to do so, Guo Ju would rather face Taihe Mountain, which had a plaque given to Emperor Taizong, than face the abnormal gang of Qingjiang Gang.

Fortunately, this time, the emperor stood behind him. No matter how hard the officials behind the Qingjiang Gang stabbed, at least on the surface, they would not dare to make things difficult for Guo Ju. In order to clear their relationship with the Qingjiang Gang, they had to pretend that they had nothing to do with the Qingjiang Gang.

But looking at the Cao Transport Governor's Office opposite the Qingjiang Gang General Hall, I am afraid that no one will be stupid enough to believe their nonsense.

"I've met General Manager Guo."

As soon as Guo Ju stepped into the Qingjiang Gang General Hall, he saw that Zhang Wei, the leader of the Qingjiang Gang General Hall, had led a group of subordinates to stand in the hall and welcomed his arrival respectfully.

"I've met the leader Zhang."

Unlike the Beggars' Sect, the Qingjiang Sect has no leader, and the head of the helm is not the biggest, but it is just nominally in charge of the entire Qingjiang Sect.

However, even so, Guo Ju didn't dare to underestimate this middle-aged man who was smiling kindly at this time, with gray hair and wrinkles on his face, looking similar to the old boatmen on the canal.

The opponent's ability to maintain a balance among many forces alone has made the Qingjiang Gang become more and more powerful in the world over the years, which is enough to make everyone look at him.

Guo Ju, who has been living in various yamen in the capital for at least ten years but still has not dealt with many colleagues, believes that he is far from Zhang Wei in this regard.

"It must be very hard for Chief Guo to come from afar. I have ordered someone to prepare a small amount of wine to welcome Chief Guo to the dust. Please!"

"Since Chief Zhang is so enthusiastic, I'll be disrespectful, please!"

Although he was thinking that there was no good banquet in his heart, Guo Ju, who was obviously unable to admit defeat at this time, also hugged his fists.

Although Zhang Wei said that he was preparing a little wine, at the banquet, there were animals in the mountains, swallows in the clouds, cattle and sheep on the land, fresh fish on the sea, monkey heads, bird's nests, shark fins, bear's paws, dried scallops, deer tail tips. Guo Ju had never seen them in his life, and had never heard of them, but his eyes were filled with many ingredients.

"Captain Guo, please take a seat. I don't know if it's up to the taste of Brother Guo. If there is any inappropriateness, please take care of it."

"Brother Zhang is so polite."

Although there are many ingredients that have never been seen or heard of, Guo Ju's face is still as normal. Obviously, he had already thought that such a scene would happen in advance.

"I'm afraid that these exquisite dishes and many unheard foods can't be tasted even by the emperor. How dare I have any dissatisfaction?"

Guo Ju said, poured himself a glass of wine casually and drank it all in one go.

"Well, good wine, the imperial wine in the palace is nothing more than that."

The many Qingjiang Gang masters behind Zhang Wei, the fragrant master, looked at Guo Ju's "knowing" with such "seeing each other", couldn't help but look satisfied on his face, but a few traces of haze flashed in Zhang Wei's eyes.

Because he heard Guo Ju's continuous words about the emperor and the palace.

Sure enough, after several years of succession to the throne, did the new emperor finally want to intervene in the canal transportation?

Thinking of this, Zhang Wei couldn't help but want to dig Qian Yan and Pan Jian, who had long been dead, out of the cemetery, and whip the corpse to vent his anger.

Because from the beginning, this incident was the two bastards' unremitting actions. As the leader, he did not know about it until the news spread throughout the world. He even realized that the two of them were the main culprits involved in the treasure burglary operation.

The Qingjiang Gang is indeed innocent in this matter.

But obviously, no matter how innocent he is, the emperor will not believe it, or even if he believes it in his heart, he will never believe it in his mouth.

So, he didn't want to complain, he just wanted to solve this matter as soon as possible.

After all, the Qingjiang Gang is different from a pure sect like the Dongyue Sword Sect, and also from a pure sect like the Tuolai Academy. The Dongyue Sword Sect can surrender and even hand over the iron sword of the leader. The Tuolai Academy can endure the pain of cutting off the part of the Jianghu Sect, but the Qingjiang Gang cannot.

As long as the Qingjiang Gang surrenders to the emperor, it means that the Qingjiang Gang will completely turn to the emperor in the future.

Five years after the Dongyue Sword Sect was sealed, it can get the iron sword of the leader and return to a first-class sect. Tuolai Academy can no longer be involved in the affairs of the world and teach Confucianism wholeheartedly, but if the Qingjiang Gang turns to the emperor, there will be only two consequences.

Either be born or become a walking corpse without self-will.

If the emperor was in full swing in the spring and autumn, his methods and courage were enough, then the Qingjiang Gang could shake off the greedy mosquitoes and cow flies lying on his body to suck blood. But if the emperor eventually lost, I am afraid that the Qingjiang Gang would completely become a tool for profit in the hands of those greedy guys.

Therefore, Zhang Wei had to be cautious.

"Ha, Brother Guo is so serious. All the people in the world belong to the saints. The common things in front of us that can only be used to satisfy our desires are just the saints who don't care about it."

Thinking of this, Zhang Wei decided not to say too much at least.

Although he had climbed all the way from the humblest boatman to this position, he believed that he had seen the wind and rain all the way, even so, his eyes looked down on the future blocked by the thick fog.

"If Brother Guo thinks that this wine is really not as good as the imperial wine in the palace, then when Brother Guo returns to Beijing, you might as well bring a few jars back. If the emperor likes it, this wine can be paid tribute, it would be a great joy."
