Chapter 172 Nan ​​Batian: Chen 94, you are plotting against me!

Chapter 172 Nan ​​Batian: Chen Jiusi, you are plotting against me!

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, everyone!"

The investigation in the Yelu Mansion was also handled with great pomp and ceremony, with the main Mulan Guards walking in the middle, and the younger brothers from the Fishing Gang and the Cao Gang acting as pioneers.

Wielding a stick in his hand, he drove aside anyone who dared to block his way.

The pedestrians on the road were so scared that they dodged quickly. It was obvious that this guy was going to arrest someone.

Thinking of this, the people around were looking around, wanting to see who was going to be unlucky again, and they were actually going to be captured by the Yelu Mansion.

That’s right, the common people living in this era have been tortured by society and have little compassion left. They feel no sympathy when they see the Mulan people harming the Han people.

On the contrary, I feel complacent.

Just like what Mr. Lao She said during the interview when he wrote "Tea House", the common people in the war have no idea what will happen tomorrow, and when they see others in misfortune, they will not feel sympathy, but on the contrary, they will feel a little complacent because they are not the ones who are in misfortune.

Similarly, most of the people under the rule of Daqian also had this mentality. They had no hope in life, so they could only watch others suffer misfortune and highlight the pride in their hearts.

So when seeing a large number of people rushing into the street, everyone's first reaction is to watch the excitement and see who is going to be unlucky again.

Chen Jie watched all this without feeling happy or sad. In this kind of environment, it was very difficult not to have a perverted mentality. This kind of suffering was something that people living in peacetime could not understand at all.

The group crossed the street and soon arrived at East Street and the blacksmith shop.

At this time, everyone in the blacksmith shop received a report from the scout: "People from the Yelu Mansion have arrived."

After hearing this, Sun Tiechui looked back at Han He. Han He nodded and then flew out of the back door. Her identity was not suitable for her to be here.

After Han He left, Sun Tiechui directed the blacksmiths to get moving immediately and not to sit idle. They were to work as they usually did, but all the weapons they had forged were turned into farm tools.

Shovel, sickle, hoe and the like.

Just like that, after a while, someone knocked on the door: Dong Dong...

Hearing the knock on the door, Sun Tiechui immediately stood up and said, "Go open the door and see who's here."

After hearing this, a disciple immediately went to open the door. Soon, the door was opened, and then a group of people were seen standing at the door.

He was immediately startled: "Master, it's a soldier!"

"Ok?"

Sun Tiechui walked out immediately after hearing that, and was stunned when he saw the scene outside. It was quite grand. Of course, this was just an act.

At this time, Qimugege came over with Nan Batian and others.

Sun Tiechui immediately clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Commander Qimuge. What are you doing?"

Sun Tiechui asked. Before Qimuge replied, Nan Batian said, "Master Sun, someone reported that your blacksmith shop colluded with Zoroastrianism and privately manufactured weapons with the intention of rebellion. We came to check it out!"

"Bullshit, who reported it? Our blacksmith shop abides by the law. How could we collude with Zoroastrianism and privately manufacture weapons with the intention of rebellion? What a big accusation. Who the hell wants to harm me? It can't be you, the leader of the Nan Gang?"

Sun Tiechui showed a hot temper, became furious and shouted curses.

After hearing this, Nan Batian quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, this is not what I said, it was Chen Jiusi who said it."

Nan Batian pointed at Chen Jie.

"It was Chen Jiusi who reported it to Darughachi. If you have any questions, ask him."

Upon hearing this, Sun Tiechui suddenly looked at Chen Jie, his eyes full of anger, and his acting skills reached the extreme.

"Chen Jiusi, what the hell do you mean? My blacksmith shop has no grudge against your White Tiger Hall, why did you kill me? If you don't give me an explanation today, this matter will not end!"

After hearing this, Chen Jie glanced at Sun Tiechui and said, "Master Sun, what explanation do you want? If you have nothing to hide, why don't you dare let us in to check? After the investigation, if you are fine, I will apologize to you!"

"You say 'apology' so easily, but you can wrongly accuse me with just a few words. If you really find out something from me, how should I deal with it?"

"Haha... Master Sun, if they find out something, then how do you want to deal with it? You will naturally stay in jail."

"What if we can't find out?"

Sun Tiechui stared at Chen Jie, who smiled and said, "If you can't find out, then I am just making things up. I apologize to Master Sun."

"Just an apology with words?"

Sun Tiechui glared at Chen Jie fiercely. Chen Jie said, "Then I'll buy you some gifts. Songxiangzhai's cakes are pretty good. I'll bring you a snack box to apologize."

"Chen Jiusi, you are going too far. Do you really think that I, Old Sun, am easy to bully? Die!"

As he spoke, Sun Tiechui slapped Chen Jie directly with a fierce palm. Chen Jie did not fight back but took a step back. At this time, Qimugege on the side suddenly made a move and directly caught Sun Tiechui's palm with a snap.

Sun Tiechui was knocked back two steps by Qimugege's palm before he could barely stop.

Qimugege’s strength has always been very good, not inferior to Nan Batian and Bei Laoliu. Sun Tiechui could not gain any advantage in his hands and was knocked back with a palm.

Tread!

He stopped after two steps, and then followed Sun Tiechui and asked, "Commander Qimuge, what are you doing?"

Qimuge glanced at Sun Tiechui and said, "I am following the orders of Daruhachi to search the blacksmith shop. Do you have any objection?"

Upon seeing this, Sun Tiechui immediately said, "I have no objection."

Qimuge said, "Well, if you have no objection, just get out of the way and don't delay our search."

Chen Jie chimed in at this time: "That's right, quickly get out of the way. Are you afraid that we will find something by blocking us like this?"

"Chen Jiusi!"

Sun Tiechui roared angrily and wanted to attack, but after looking at Qimugege, he said to Chen Jie, "Just wait. If I don't receive anything today, I will go to Lord Darughachi and sue you!"

Chen Jie said: "For Daqian, I am not afraid of any threats. Sun Tiechui, if you have a clear conscience, please get out of the way. If you really have any thoughts that you shouldn't have, there is no need for Commander Qimuge to take action today. I will take you down on behalf of Lord Yelu!"

"Okay, okay, Chen Jiusi, the feud between us has been settled. From now on, in Mianshui County, it's either you or me. We must decide the winner in the end."

"Are you done? If you are, get out of the way and search for me."

Chen Jie shouted angrily and was about to send people in to search with a wave of his hand. However, these people were all guards of the Darughachi Mansion. How could they listen to Chen Jie's arrangements? None of them moved.

However, Qimugege admired Chen Jie very much. This was the way he looked at Chen Jie to help Daruhaci share his worries. He was not like Nan Tyrant, who came to sow discord as soon as he arrived. It seemed that he had other intentions.

Qimuge glanced at Nan Batian.

He would not have thought so at first, mainly because just as he went out today, someone under Nan Batian's command ran away. Although Qimugege did not say it, the seeds of doubt were planted in his heart.

Now let’s see that as soon as Nan Batian arrived here, he tried to sow discord and provoke a war.

Is it intentional delay?

I have to say that Chen Jie's move was very clever. He used a spy to plant a seed of doubt in the heart of a key person at a critical moment.

And once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will blossom and bear fruit.

Just like now, Nan Batian simply wanted to disgust Chen Jie. His act of creating an enemy for Chen Jie became distorted in the eyes of Qimugege!
Nan Batian didn't know that he had aroused Qimugege's suspicion.

And this is exactly the effect Chen Jie wanted. When setting up a strategy, he wanted to find a towering tree and knock it down step by step.

Nan Batian has been dominating Mianshui County for more than twenty years. His adoptive father, Peng Shizhong, failed to bring him down, and neither did Old Monster Liu. Even Yelu had to rely on him. Therefore, if one wants to bring down such a towering tree, one needs to make an overall plan and take every step carefully in order to uproot him.

Nan Batian was puzzled by Qimuge's look, but he still kept his mouth shut. Qimuge waved his hand and said, "Search!"

At a command, the Yelu Mansion guards rushed directly into the blacksmith shop.

Sun Tiechui glared at Chen Jie and said, "Chen Jiusi, if you can't find anything, this matter is not over yet."

"Haha, Brother Sun."

Sun Tiechui was still angry, and then Old Monster Liu stepped forward, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Brother, Jiusi is young and has not done things properly. If there is anything he should or should not have done, I, your brother, will apologize to you on his behalf."

"Just be magnanimous and don't bother with him. He just wants to relieve the worries of Darughachi."

Sun Tiechui said: "Then he can't wrongly accuse me."

Old Monster Liu said, "What do you mean by unfair or not? Brother, you have never made weapons for the Zoroastrianism, have you?"

"Am I crazy? I'm living a good life, why would I argue with a bunch of Zoroastrian rebels?"

"That's it. You didn't collude with Zoroastrianism. Let's investigate. After the investigation, you will be innocent. It will save outsiders from gossiping. Now that something like this has happened, the blacksmith shop must investigate sooner or later. Investigate sooner, and live a good life!"

After hearing this, Sun Tiechui said, "Well, Brother Liu is right. I have nothing to fear if I am upright!"

Sun Tiechui said, "Then check it out, check it out thoroughly!"

After Sun Tiechui finished speaking, Old Monster Liu said, "Hey, that's right, hahaha, Brother Sun is still reasonable."

"Brother Liu, it's not that I don't want you to investigate, it's just that Chen Jiusi wronged me, and I feel uncomfortable..."

"Okay, we adults are magnanimous and won't argue with him."

Old Monster Liu, with a smile on his face, brought Sun Tiechui into the yard.

Chen Jie also followed Sun Tiechui into the yard. Xiaohu muttered quietly beside him, "This guy really acted like a real person."

Chen Jie laughed and said, "He has been able to stay in Mianshui County for such a long time without being suspected. Do you really think he is stupid?"

The two men whispered to each other and entered the blacksmith shop. Once they entered the shop, they saw that all the blacksmiths in the shop were being escorted by the guards of the Yelu Mansion and standing with their backs against the wall.

At this time, the guards had basically searched out everything in the blacksmith shop, including farm tools, hoes, rakes, sickles, and shovels.

There are all kinds of farm tools.

Seeing the farm tools on the ground, Sun Tiechui said with a bitter face: "Commander Qimuge, the weapons you are talking about for rebellion are not these hoes and sickles, right?"

After hearing this, Qimuge said, "Of course not. What kind of weapon is this?"

Sun Tiechui said: "Look, this is pure false accusation by Chen Jiusi, you have to take care of him..."

Qimuge smiled and said, "Master Sun, don't worry, we haven't finished checking yet."

After hearing this, Sun Tiechui paused for a moment, and then he heard someone shout, "Come and see, there are weapons here!"

Hearing this, Qimuge glanced at Sun Tiechui and said, "Master Sun, go and take a look."

Sun Tiechui's face changed, but he still followed him into the house and came to the guard who shouted that there were weapons.

There was a large cabinet with many weapons neatly arranged on it. However, there was a sign in front of each of the weapons. Looking at the sign, everyone fell silent.

There was only a sign that said: Fisherman's Gang.

A sign read: Cao Gang.

A sign read, Yelu Mansion.

A sign read: County Government Office!
……

Sun Tiechui said at this time: "Everyone, these are the weapons that the major gangs in the city ordered from me. This is not against the rules, right? Lord Yelu also knows it!"

This Yelu knew for sure that the fishing gang, the shipping gang, the Yelu Mansion, and the county government all needed weapons. Although Daqian banned weapons among the civilian population, it did not impose any ban on gangs.

However, they did not dare to make it casually. They were all made at the Sun Family Blacksmith Shop, the production unit designated by the Yelu Mansion.

This is the table where they customize their weapons.

Qimugege went over and picked up a sign, turned it over, and found a list on the back.

It said: Fishermen's Gang, October 6, order 70 fish knives, to be delivered in one month.

He brought another one: On October 15th, the Cao Gang placed an order for fifty swords, which will be delivered in twenty days.

Yelu Mansion: ...

Qimuge looked at them and turned to look at Nan Batian and the others and said, "Are you all ordering weapons here?"

Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai nodded at the same time. These weapons were indeed custom-made by them. So it seemed that these swords could not be considered as privately made weapons.

In fact, this does not count, after all, according to the regulations of the Yelu Mansion.

Swords are not considered regulated weapons and are not classified as ordnance. Local gangs are allowed to forge them. But what is it that needs to be regulated?

That's right, bows and arrows, crossbows, and armor are strictly controlled.

Especially armor, which is an important strategic material. Generally, if you hide a little, such as a sword, no one will care. But if you hide a set of armor at home, then you can be directly classified as having the intention of rebellion.

Of course, the cost of armor is too high, and Zoroastrianism cannot afford to produce armor in large quantities at this price.

So there is only one kind of military equipment they refer to: strong bows and crossbows, or iron bows and arrows are all considered military equipment.

Because if you make bows and arrows, you can't not make bows and arrows, just like if you have bullets in your hands, you can't be without a gun.

But these swords could not explain anything.

Qimuge looked around and said, "Hey, why is there no sign for Baihutang?"

After hearing this, Sun Tiechui said, "There have been too many jobs in the past month. Last time, the White Tiger Hall sent someone to place an order, but I rejected it. So you hold a grudge against me and went to Darughachi to complain about me, right?"

Chen Jie looked at Sun Tiechui and said, "I simply told Darughachi that you were suspected of making weapons here, but I didn't say that you must have weapons here, and I didn't intend to target you."

"Good, I'm not targeting you, Chen Jiusi, do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"

Sun Tiechui looked at Chen Jie with a cold face.

At this time, Qimuge said: "Well, since we didn't find anything, let's go."

After hearing this, Sun Tiechui said, "Commander, take care."

"and many more!"

At this time, Chen Jie suddenly spoke up. Sun Tiechui frowned and looked at Chen Jie and said, "Chen Jiusi, are you done yet?"

Chen Jie said: "Master Sun, I don't mean to target you, but we have only checked the surface. Who knows if you have any secret cellars or other places here?"

"Chen Jiusi, what do you mean?"

Chen Jie said: "Haha, what do you mean? I suspect someone tipped you off, and then you hid the weapons and other things so that we couldn't find them."

"You are slandering me!"

"Keep your mouth shut!"

Sun Tiechui was furious and pointed at Chen Jie and cursed him. Xiaohu, who was standing next to Chen Jie, was also furious and pointed his finger at Sun Tiechui. For a moment, the situation became tense.

Seeing this scene, Qimugege frowned.

Chen Jie's words seemed to make sense. Someone tipped off Sun Tiechui and he hid the things in the secret room in advance. It was possible. After figuring this out, Qimuge looked at Sun Tiechui and said, "Master Sun, you don't really have a secret cellar here, do you?"

Sun Tiechui said, "No, absolutely not. I am an upright person. There is no such thing as a secret room."

After hearing this, Qimuge looked at Sun Tiechui suspiciously.

Then he asked, "Really?"

Sun Tiechui asked, "Why would I lie to you?"

Qimuge said: "Then search it."

After that, Qimuge said, "Search, dig three feet underground to see if there is a cellar or secret room!"

"Yes!"

After hearing this, a group of guards from the Yelu Mansion picked up the shovels they had searched and started digging at Sun Tiechui's place.

Looking at the messy yard that had been dug up and the knocked-down wall, Sun Tiechui's eyes were red, and he looked at Chen Jie angrily and said, "Chen Jiusi, I will never let you go!"

Chen Jie heard this and said, "I am dedicated to the public, why should I be afraid of you!"

The two looked at each other, their eyes full of tension, as if they would never give up on each other.

Qimugege saw everything.

I was also wondering, could it be that Sun Tiechui was really being wronged?
What happened to Nan Batian's escaped subordinate? Or did Nan Batian collude with Sun Tiechui to transfer the weapons?
Qimuge was frowning for a moment, but Sun Tiechui's blacksmith shop was turned upside down and even dug three feet deep, but no problems were found.

Is there really no cellar here?
How is that possible? Yes, but the entrance to the cellar has been blocked by Sun Tiechui in advance, so you can't find it even if you are a god.

He and Chen Jie set up this trap. If there was a flaw, would he be so bold as to let Qimugege in?
It's impossible, because there is no flaw, so the wooden grid can be found at will, and it doesn't matter even if you tear down the blacksmith shop.

It just so happened that Sun Tiechui and his men also had to evacuate Mianshui County.

That's right, Sun Tiechui is going to evacuate Mianshui County. The fighting in the north is too fierce, and a skilled blacksmith is very valuable there. So he can't waste any more time in Mianshui County. This time he is going to join the army on an expedition.

Therefore, he didn't care much about the demolition of the entire Sun family blacksmith shop, but he couldn't act like he didn't care. He had to act hysterical so that he could perform this drama well.

"Report to the commander, no cellar or secret room has been found in the East Courtyard."

"Report to the commander, no cellar or secret room has been found in the west courtyard!"

"Report to the commander, no cellar or secret room was found in the backyard..."

……

After digging deeper, they finally discovered that there was no cellar or secret room in the entire blacksmith shop.

This completely proved Sun Tiechui's innocence. Sun Tiechui roared, "Chen Jiusi, do you have anything else to say?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie said calmly: "Well, it seems that you are innocent. In that case, we will withdraw." As Chen Jie was about to leave, Sun Tiechui roared, "Stop!"
He jumped in front of Chen Jie and punched him. Chen Jie looked calm when he saw him. As expected, Qimuge said, "Master Sun, don't be reckless."

Upon hearing this, Sun Tiechui was immediately furious and said, "Commander Qimuge, look at what Chen Jiusi has done to my blacksmith shop. I, I must have an explanation!"

Qimuge heard this and said, "If you want to hear the Dharma, go to the Darughachi Mansion and ask for it. Now we have to go back and report. Master Sun, you should know what the consequences are for delaying Lord Yelu's military orders, right?"

Sun Tiechui stepped back and said, "Okay, in that case, I will go to the Darughachi Palace with you. I want the Darughachi to do justice for me in person."

When everyone heard this, Qimuge said, "Okay, let's go back to Darughachi Mansion together."

……

The group left together, and just as they left, two pretty figures landed on the roof of the blacksmith shop and watched the group go away.

At this time, the one in white clothes said to the other one in black clothes: "Sister, is this the end?"

Han He said: "Well, it's done."

"Then these annoying Mulan dogs won't come again, right?"

Han He said, "They won't come back anytime soon. We've already searched this place, so we've cleared them of suspicion. The other party won't think this is a scam targeting them."

"Hehe, just now Brother Sun and that scoundrel acted really well. I thought they were really going to fight!"

Han Lian said to Han He with a smile. Han He said, "Well, this game is indeed very clever. That Lecher is indeed very smart."

"Instead of being constantly under the watchful eye of the Mulan people, it is better to expose ourselves to them. It is really impossible for them to notice us so quickly."

"Next, while the Mulan people are searching other places, the fishing gangs, and the transport gangs, we can prepare the weapons and then transport them out of the city according to Chen Jiusi's method."

Han Lian asked: "Will his method work?"

Han He said, "It should be possible. If it were me, I would never have thought of his wild ideas."

"Okay, let Brother Sun and that pervert take care of the acting. We still have a mission to complete."

After saying that, Qiao Hongyan put on the mask on her face, and Han Lian also put on the mask on her face. Then the two female heroes disappeared directly on the roof.

……

Qimuge brought Chen Jie and his party back to Yelu Mansion again.

Qimuge said to Chen Jie and the others, "Wait at the door for a moment. I will go and report to Lord Yelu."

After hearing this, everyone clasped their fists and said, "Yes."

Qimugege soon came to Yelu's room.

"master."

Qimuge entered the room and saw Yelu reading a book, so he called out.

Yelu put the book down, looked at Qimuge and said, "Oh, you're back. Did you gain anything?"

Qimuge immediately said upon hearing this: "Master, there is not much to gain."

"It seems that Sun Tiechui really has nothing to do with military equipment. We searched the entire Sun family blacksmith shop today and dug deep into the ground, but we didn't find anything suspicious. Moreover, Sun Tiechui even had a fight with Chen Jiusi over this matter."

"Oh, is there anything else?"

Yelu was stunned, looked at Qimuge and said, "Tell me in detail."

Qimuge heard this and said, "Yes, that's right..."

Explain the matter in detail.

"Sun Tiechui followed us back and said he wanted to ask you to give him justice. What do you think?"

Qimuge explained the situation, and Yelu said, "Well, Sun Tiechui does need to be comforted. After all, with the frequent wars in the north, the demand for weapons is increasing. If Sun Tiechui can help the court manufacture weapons, he can also help deal with the Red Turban bandits in the north."

Qimuge listened to Yelu's words and said, "Yes, in that case, I will call him in."

"Well, but there's no rush. You seemed to be hesitant to speak just now. What do you want to say?"

Qimugeli said in a pause: "It's like this. Just when we gathered our men and prepared to search the blacksmith Sun's shop, a guard under Nan Batian suddenly fled the scene and disappeared..."

"Hmm? Do you suspect that Nan Batian is colluding with Sun Tiechui?"

Yelu frowned, and Qimuge said: "This is just a guess, there is no real evidence!"

Yelu said: "Well, how does Nan Batian explain this matter?"

Qimuge said: "I did not ask any further questions."

Yelu said, "Well, I understand. Go and invite Sun Tiechui in first."

"Yes!"

Qimugege went out to look for Sun Tiechui. At this time, Yelu rubbed his nose bridge, his eyes slightly focused, thinking about this matter in his mind. It was too sudden that the people under Nan Batian left suddenly.

Will Nan Batian go back and tip off?
Yelu shook his head and said, "No, although Nan Batian is ambitious, he is not a stupid person. How could he be so stupid as to collude with Zoroastrianism?"

"No, it's not impossible. This old guy has been planning to become independent. If I hadn't arranged for someone in the White Tiger Hall to suppress him, I'm afraid he would have become independent and powerful long ago. It's possible that he was dissatisfied with me and joined forces with the Zoroastrianism."

"But even if he joined forces with Zoroastrianism, how could he have such a big mistake in sending a signal, and was caught by Qimuge? Was he framed?"

"But it's also possible that the incident happened suddenly and he had no choice but to take the risk..."

Yelu was thinking quickly in his mind. Although he didn't believe that Nan Batian would be stupid enough to make such a mistake, the seed of doubt was still planted.

And once the seeds of doubt are planted, the relationship between the two of them will never go back to the way it was before.

It's like a flawless bowl that suddenly has an internal crack. Although it doesn't affect its use, it is no longer the same bowl as before.

And this is exactly what Chen Jie needs.

What Xiaohu said that day was very right. As long as Yelu still supported Nan Batian, it would be difficult for him to bring down Nan Batian.

If one wants to truly bring down Nan Batian, the best way is to make Yelu completely lose trust in Nan Batian.

The first step to losing trust is suspicion.

Chen Jie undoubtedly made a huge profit by using a chess piece that he had spent countless efforts and more than half a year to infiltrate Nan Batian's guard team in exchange for Yelu's suspicion.

As long as suspicion appears, it will never disappear. It is like a sapling that will only grow and never disappear.

In this sentence, Chen Jie plays with: human heart!

"Sun Tiechui greets Lord Yelu."

Sun Tiechui quickly entered the house and saluted Yelu.

Yelu smiled when he saw him and said, "Old Sun, you don't have to be so polite. You and I are old acquaintances. If you hadn't been the first to find me, I wouldn't have known how to gain a foothold in Mianshui. In fact, you have done me a favor."

Sun Tiechui immediately clasped his fists and said, "My Lord, I am so embarrassed."

Yelu walked over with a smile and said, "I know everything about you. I'm sorry for wronging you."

"Sir, I..."

Sun Tiechui was a little at a loss. Yelu said, "Well, actually you and I are old friends. I know your character. You can't collude with anyone in Zoroastrianism. But now this has happened, and you are the one I suspect. I think there must be nothing wrong with you, and you are my man. I have to investigate you first, then I can convince everyone and investigate others. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand!"

Sun Tiechui said, "I am the master's man. If you check me first and then check the others, then others will have nothing to say."

"Oh, by the way, Old Sun, I'm very happy that you think this way."

"But this matter has indeed wronged you, and your blacksmith shop has also suffered losses, Qimuge!"

"My subordinate is here."

"Let Jiusi come in."

"Yes."

As he said that, Qimuge asked Chen Jiusi to come in. Chen Jiusi immediately clasped his fists and said, "Master Yelu."

Yelu said with a straight face: "Jiu Si, you went too far this time. No wonder Shopkeeper Sun is dissatisfied. Come over and apologize to Shopkeeper Sun."

I?
Chen Jie had known this would happen, but he was still surprised. Yelu quickly gave him a look, meaning that he would follow his instructions.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jie immediately clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Master Sun, Jiusi was wrong about what happened today. Jiusi apologizes to you!"

Chen Jie bowed and saluted.

Seeing this, Sun Tiechui snorted coldly: "Humph."

Seeing this, Yelu said, "Haha, alright, alright, you are all my right-hand men and left-hand men, don't get upset over a small matter, just for my sake."

After Yelu finished speaking, Chen Jie and Sun Tiechui looked at each other. They both felt the joy of their plan succeeding. At least they had deceived Yelu temporarily.

"Master Yelu, since you've come to this point, I can't be ungrateful. I will just pretend that this incident never happened."

Sun Tiechui looked at Yelu and said, Yelu heard this and said, "Well, Old Sun is still able to distinguish right from wrong, Jiusi!"

Yelu looked at Chen Jie, who clasped his fists and said, "Lord Yelu."

"Give two thousand taels of silver to Shopkeeper Sun as a token of your appreciation."

"Yes."

At this time, Chen Jie directly followed Yelu's words.

After all this was done, Yelu said, "That's enough. Today's work is almost done. I won't keep any more food for you. You can go first."

Chen Jie and Zhao Tiechui bowed to Yelu and left the room. Just as Chen Jie and the others were leaving the room, they saw Nan Batian walking in. A smile appeared on Chen Jie's face, but it was fleeting, but was still caught by Nan Batian.

Nan Batian frowned suddenly, having a bad feeling.

However, Chen Jie did not speak to him. He just gave him a look that told him to wish him the best, then turned and left Yelu's house.

Yelu was looking out the window with his hands behind his back. When Nan Batian came in, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Lord Yelu."

Yelu turned his back to him, neither looking at him nor paying any attention to him.

Nan Batian bowed for a long time but no one paid attention to him. He felt his heart pounding and couldn't bow again: "Subordinate Nan Batian greets Lord Yelu."

After hearing this, Yelu turned around, looked Nan Batian up and down and said, "Boss Nan, we have known each other for ten years, right?"

Nan Batian said: "Ten years."

Yelu said, "How should I treat you?"

Nan Batian said: "Of course, my grace is higher than the sky."

"Then why did you betray me?"

Yelu asked harshly. After hearing this, Nan Batian was confused and said, "My lord, I am innocent. When did I betray you?"

Yelu looked at Nan Batian and said, "Humph, you didn't betray me, so why did you collude with Zoroastrianism and plot a rebellion?"

"Sir Yelu, this is a huge injustice. When did I ever collude with the Zoroastrians and dare to rebel? Sir, I absolutely did not do that. Please understand!"

"Haha, you still don't admit it. Well, in that case, let me ask you, how do you explain what happened today?"

"today?"

Nan Batian was confused, and then he thought of the guard who escaped today. Nan Batian said: "Lord Yelu, I, I was framed. What on earth did that guard go to do? I, I don't know!"

"You don't know, haha, very good, it's a clean push, then let me help you think about it?"

Yelu said coldly, Nan Batian said: "Sir, I..."

"Shut up, listen to me first. Have you colluded with the Zoroastrians and traded in military equipment? When the 94th said that they wanted to investigate the manufacture of military equipment, you panicked and sent people to notify the Zoroastrians to move the scene in an attempt to get away with it!"

Nan Batian's face immediately turned pale: "I, I didn't!"

"That guard was not sent by me. Someone is trying to frame me!"

Nan Batian was so anxious that he even swore, but soon a picture emerged in his mind - Chen Jiusi's meaningful smile just now.

Chen Jiusi, that’s right, it was that damn Chen Jiusi who framed me!

Nan Batian's eyes instantly turned red, and he wished he could settle the score with Chen Jiusi right away. He said to Yelu anxiously, "Master Yelu, someone framed me. No, it was not someone, but Chen Jiusi. It was Chen Jiusi who framed me!"

"You know that I have a grudge against Chen Jiusi. I was the one who killed the 28 guards under his command. But sir, I have never colluded with the Zoroastrianism, and I dare not collude with the Zoroastrianism!"

"What happened today must have been framed by Chen Jiusi. I was wronged. He, he just wanted to take revenge on me!"

Nan Batian was completely panicked and didn't know what to say.

Yelu narrowed his eyes and looked at Nan Batian and said, "Oh, you mean Chen Jiusi deliberately framed you?"

"Yes, yes, it was Chen Jiusi who framed me. He hated me for killing his twenty-eight guards, so he deliberately plotted against me. And, and my subordinates were suspicious."

Yelu said, "What do you doubt?"

"I, I suspect that Chen Jiusi is the one who colluded with Zoroastrianism!"

"Is there any evidence?"

Yelu looked at Nan Batian, and Nan Batian said, "Not at the moment."

"You're making random accusations without any evidence. That's not good!"

Yelu looked at Nan Batian, and Nan Batian said, "Sir, if you give me a chance, I will definitely find out who Chen Jiusi is. He is definitely not a good person."

Upon hearing this, Yelu looked at Nan Batian and said, "Can I trust you?"

Nan Batian said: "Lord Yelu, we have known each other for ten years and I have done many things for you, several of which were related to Zoroastrianism. If I were a Zoroastrian, how could I kill my own people?"

Yelu narrowed his eyes and said, "That's possible. There are many Zoroastrians who kill each other to gain the trust of court officials!"

"My lord, please believe me. I am definitely not doing that. I swear to God."

Yelu waved his hands and said, "Haha, no need to swear, I believe you."

"Thank you, sir."

Nan Batian was relieved to see that Yelu didn't need to swear an oath, but before he could finish his breath, Yelu said, "Although I believe in you, you have to prove yourself."

"Proof? How?"

Yelu said, "You said you are not a Zoroastrian?"

"Absolutely not!"

Yelu said: "Very good, then help me capture these Zoroastrian demons. And the most important thing is that these weapons must be seized and brought back to me. They must not fall into the hands of the rebels in the north. Can you do it?"

"this!"

Nan Batian suddenly looked embarrassed.

Not only do they need to capture the Zoroastrian demons, but they also need to seize their weapons. Each of these actions is bound to offend the Zoroastrians to death.

He is Nan Batian, a man who has been making his living in the underworld, and he is known for his good manners. Now he is fighting to the death with the Zoroastrianism?

If the Zoroastrians invade the Mian River in the future, how will he deal with it? He is very conflicted at this moment. What should he do? Should he agree or not?

Seeing that he actually hesitated, Yelu frowned and looked at Nan Batian and said, "Boss Nan, what's wrong? Or have you really colluded with Zoroastrianism?"

After saying this, Yelu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and even Nan Batian felt a huge pressure.

That is not oppression based on martial arts, but oppression based on official authority.

Now he was in a dilemma. If he did not agree, Yelu would be able to take him down right now. When he turned around, he saw Yelu's number one thug, Qimugege, standing not far away, with the knife in his hand already unsheathed.

It looked like he would kill me immediately if I didn't agree.

Thinking of this, Nan Batian took a deep breath, knowing that he had no choice. He had to accept this mission whether he wanted to or not.

"Lord Yelu, I accept this mission. I promise to capture the Zoroastrian demons within one month and seize the weapons they made."

"Half a month."

Yelu gave a time limit in a cold voice. Nan Batian was stunned for a moment, then he clasped his fists and said, "Yes, within half a month, we will capture the Zoroastrian demon and seize the weapons that the Zoroastrians are supporting the North."

Yelu heard this and said, "That's great. Go back and prepare."

"Yes!"

Nan Batian was almost crying. He clasped his fists and went out, just in time to see Chen Jie standing at the door, looking at him with a smile on his face.

Nan Batian couldn't bear it any longer and yelled at Chen Jie: "Chen Jiusi, you are fucking me!"

After saying that, he slapped Chen Jie directly!

 I recommend a book called "Fengshen: Is there a calamity in longevity? Killing brings disaster!"
