Chapter 46 Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots
Zhendong City!
The imperial examination was held in the Oriental fiefdom, and all the candidates from the 36 cities participated in it one after another, and a large number of talents participated in the literary examination and the martial arts examination.
The martial arts examination is simple, and cultivators of different ages compete to select those who are powerful and those who are talented.
The essay test is a little complicated, but it is strangely fair. It is divided into four stages, the town test, the city test, the meeting test, and the palace test. The first two stages have been completed in the major cities, and those who have passed the city examination are all lifted, and the lifters have rushed to the east of the town one after another, preparing to participate in the meeting examination and the palace examination.
Before the examination was held, the people from the thirty-six cities kept moving around each other and kept communicating with each other, because all the people understood that when they came to participate in the examination, they basically stepped into the officialdom circle of the Eastern fiefdom.
For a time, Zhendong City was at its peak, and people who were against poetry could be seen everywhere.
And in the east of the town, in a small courtyard. An elegant man in black played a guqin. The sound of the piano sounded, and the five scribes in front of them were all intoxicated. After the sound of the harp, the five scribes could not come out of the sound for a long time.
The elegant man in black smiled slightly, and an attendant next to him handed a hot towel to wipe the hands of the man in black. sat down, took a sip of tea, and then leisurely took out a feather fan and fanned himself slightly.
At this moment, the five scribes also suddenly sobered up.
"Mr. Zhang! The sound of your piano is really lingering for three days, endlessly, we are all fascinated! One of the scribes laughed.
"I can hear Mr. Zhang's piano sound, I am lucky to wait for three lives!" Another scribe sighed.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for playing this song for us, I feel that my imprisoned cultivation is also going to be mastered!"
……………………
………………
……
The five scribes looked at Mr. Zhang with reverence.
Mr. Zhang smiled slightly: "The five of them are the same as Zaixia, they are all one city solution, so you don't need to be so polite!" ”
"There is no politeness, Mr. Zhang is erudite, I know everything, in the past, Mr. Zhang traveled to the Oriental fiefdom, I remember the old Oriental King, Wang Hong went to Mr. Zhang's small courtyard three times, Corporal Lixian, asked Mr. Zhang to serve in the Oriental fiefdom, Mr. Zhang shirked!" A scribe laughed.
"Old King of the East? Oh, at the beginning, the old Dongfang Wang's subordinates were full of talents, not more than me, not more than me, and less than me, so I won't come to join in this fun! Mr. Zhang said with a smile.
"I waited for five people, and they all heard that Mr. Zhang was going to participate in this imperial examination, so I followed Mr. to participate, but I waited for five people to understand their own ability, and they were like fireflies in front of Mr. Zhang, so I didn't dare to compete with Mr. in the same city, so I went to the other five cities, but I didn't expect that I could also compete first and become Xie Yuan!" A scribe laughed.
"As soon as the old king of the East died, some of the talents of the Eastern fiefdom left by themselves, some were forced to leave, some were snatched away, and some couldn't stand the temptation to leave. A piece of fertile soil turned into a ruin in the blink of an eye. Mr. Zhang shook his head and sighed.
"Why did the gentleman come back?" A scribe was puzzled.
"I see vitality, a vigorous vitality, the new king of the East, it's not simple, this imperial examination, I don't care what the reason, he can be so fair and just, and let his officials spontaneously abide by it, it's not simple! Even if you are surrounded by ghosts, you can also be in the right world, this is the atmosphere of Mingjun! Mr. Zhang shook his feather fan and said solemnly.
"Mr. Zhang, have you been in contact with Wang Xiong?" A scribe wondered.
"Nope! I also heard about his deeds, so I came to the Eastern Fiefdom to see his people, and I didn't want to just encounter his imperial examination! Not bad! Mr. Zhang sighed.
"Wang Xiong's deeds? Although Wang Xiong's deeds are fantastical, they are not enough to let Mr. Zhang come from thousands of miles away, right? A scribe wondered.
"If you can make a mess of your brother, isn't it worth coming down?" Mr. Zhang said with a smile.
"Brother?" Another scribe curious.
"Brother, Zhang Zhengdao!" Mr. Zhang said with a smile.
"Zhang Zhengdao? Great Qin People's Kingdom, Imperial Doctor? The man was surprised.
"Good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers choose kings and auxiliaries! If Wang Xiong really has the spirit of a king, he will be out of the cabinet below, if there is nothing I want, this time he will also come to study abroad! Mr. Zhang said with a smile.
"Mr. is out of the cabinet?" The eyes of the scribes lit up.
Mr. Zhang smiled slightly.
"Mr. Zhang Jiafang is out of the cabinet, which means that Mr. has learned everything, sir, the major forces in the world, if they know that Mr. is out of the cabinet, they will definitely flock to him, please Mr. out of the mountain!" A scribe said enviously.
"It's just a name!" Mr. Zhang shook his head.
"It is rumored that we will fill the position of the official of Captain Pang's faction, so will Captain Pang let him then?" Another scribe curious.
"Take the exam well, and by then, you may get more than you think! As for Taiwei Pang, heh, as soon as the three decrees of the King of the East came out, Taiwei Pang was already suffering from scabies. Don't worry! Mr. Zhang shook his feather fan and said lightly.
"Scabies? No way! Captain Pang has been operating in the Eastern Fiefdom for many years! ”
"There are five things in the army, the Tao is the head, the king of the east occupies the morality, he is invincible, no matter how long Captain Pang operates, it is useless, the more fierce Captain Pang counterattacks, the more he will lose! Before the Dongfang King left Zhendong City, he still left a piece of fat and waited for Captain Pang to take the bait. Maybe......! Mr. Zhang's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Got a piece of fat?"
"It's General Ember's Sky Wolf Battalion. Waiting for Captain Pang to make a move! ”
"Isn't the wolf camp going to be dangerous that day?"
"No, on the contrary, I think that Taiwei Pang has been fooled again, and the king of the east deliberately left a flaw, how can he not be prepared? Wait, the good news should come soon! Mr. Zhang shook his feather fan and said confidently.
"Really?" The five scribes were amazed.
"Sir, I watched the people who came to the test this time, and kept visiting the children of the Wang family. I also received a few invitations below, do you want to ......! A scribe wondered.
"Don't go! The Eastern fiefdom is undergoing a change, and if you want to go high in the future, don't go to anyone's invitation! If the body is clear, the king of the East will be reused! Mr. Zhang said lightly.
"Oh?" The five of them nodded with a fixed expression.
Although the five of them had received the invitation, they had lost the mind to know the children of the Wang family in an instant, after all, the five of them believed in the knowledge of Mr. Zhang in front of them.
"Moreover, if my prediction is right, these days, there will be a big change in the Eastern Palace, how far away are you, how far away are you!" Mr. Zhang said in a deep voice.
"Change?" The people will be skeptical.
--------
At night, in the Oriental Palace, Wang Zhongquan's house. The candlelight is flickering, and the house is dark!
Wang Zhongquan was neatly dressed and sat on a Taishi chair, his eyes gloomy, as if he was waiting for something.
The three men dressed as domestic servants in front of him were extremely respectful.
"Boss, find out, they should do it tonight!" A servant said respectfully.
Wang Zhongquan's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of femininity in his voice: "It's really a group of wolf-hearted things." Without the prince, can they have today's scenery? After a great benefit, still not satisfied? Hey! ”
"They heard that the chief manager has transferred a lot of zombies out, so they dare to be unscrupulous!"
"It's okay, come on! The old prince is soft-hearted, so let them be. I won't let them, the prince goes out, I have to fulfill my duty as a loyal slave, this time it was the chief who deliberately transferred the zombies out, just for fear that they would not come! Wang Zhong said with a hint of coldness.
The three subordinates nodded respectfully, but there was still worry in their eyes.
It was just as the four of them were talking.
"Bang!"
Not far away, four windows broke open in an instant, and four figures rushed towards Wang Zhongquan like sharp arrows.
"Look for death!" The three servants glared at each other and greeted them.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Suddenly, the three servants stopped the three black shadows.
"Martial Sect Realm?" The faces of the three servants changed.
"Chief Administrator be careful, the one who pounced on you was the high-ranking Martial Sect, be careful!" A servant cried out in horror.
Three servants stopped the three Martial Sect Realms. But there is also a black shadow, the speed is so fast, it is even stronger than the previous three black shadows, at least the seventh level of the Martial Sect Realm, and Wang Zhongquan, it seems that after entering the Martial Sect Realm for the first time, his cultivation stopped. This, how is this good?
That martial arts sect was high-level, and a sword stabbed Wang Zhongquan's throat, and the sword was as fast as light, as if Wang Zhongquan would be killed immediately.
There was a cold glint in Wang Zhongquan's eyes.
"Ding!"
Only the sound of gold and stone striking was heard, and the next moment, the senior rank of the Martial Sect widened his eyes and couldn't even speak.
Because, Wang Zhongquan stuck the long sword with one hand, and with the other hand, he actually choked the neck of the high-ranking martial sect.
How is this possible?
"Click!"
Wang Zhongquan twisted the man's neck.
Wang Zhongquan's strength instantly stunned the remaining three.
"No, it's impossible!" A dark shadow exclaimed.
"Whew!"
Wang Zhongquan was left for a while, bringing out a breeze, and all the candles on the table were extinguished in an instant, and Wang Zhongquan quickly arrived in front of the three black shadows, between the cold eyes of the three servants. At a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to capture, three blood holes were instantly pointed out in the center of the three black shadow eyebrows.
The three black shadows instantly fell straight to the ground.
"Boss, you're ......!" The three servants were stunned.
Wang Zhongquan took a deep breath, and a sigh flashed in his eyes: "Sunflower Taiyin Gong? This exercise rewarded by the prince is really domineering! ”
"Grand Administrator, you are already a Martial Saint?" A domestic servant was pleasantly surprised.
Wang Zhongquan ignored it, but looked outside in the moonlight.
Outside, a large number of children of the Wang family have already gathered around at this moment.
Four vanguards broke in, and the candlelight inside was instantly extinguished. And then there was a noise, and there was no sound?
"Sect Elder, something is wrong!"
"Sect Elder, when the four of them went in, why was there no sound?"
……………………
………………
……
The children of the Wang family showed a blank look.
"The arrow is on the bow, I have to send it, don't care so much, let's go together, today, we must kill Wang Zhongquan, get the Dongfang King Seal, and wait for Wang Tiance to come back and inherit the throne!" A sect elder said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Suddenly, a large number of strong people broke into the hut.
"Boom!"
Under a series of loud noises, in an instant, more than a dozen people who broke into the hut were beaten out, and the moment they were beaten, they all broke their bones and were in pain.
"What?" The people outside were surprised.
At this time, Wang Zhongquan stepped out of the hut and looked coldly at the hundreds of people outside.
"Heh, they're all here?" Wang Zhongquan showed a sneer.
"You know we're coming?" A sect elder was surprised.
"You children of the six-vein Wang family, do you want to support Wang Tiance as the king? This is a deception, the prince said before leaving home, the old slave owner, for the deception of the king, the rebellious person, the old slave has the right to cut first and then play! Wang Zhongquan's eyes were cold.
"Hahaha, with you? Wang Zhongquan! Another sect elder said disdainfully.
"Smack!" Wang Zhongquan clapped his palms lightly.
"Click, click!"
But I saw that on the surrounding peaks and attics, there was a sudden sound of bowstrings on arrows, and everyone turned their heads to look, but saw that there were a large number of soldiers, who were holding bows and crossbows at the moment, facing this group of 100 people who broke into Wang Zhongquan's small courtyard.
"What? Eight Bull Crossbows!? How did you appear in the palace? ”
"Wang Zhongquan, what do you want to do?"
"There is an ambush, how can there be an ambush?"
…………………………
………………
………
A group of Wang family disciples exclaimed.
"A child of the Six-Vein Wang family? In order to assassinate me today, take the seal of the king of the east? The elders of the Three Veins Sect actually came, haha, you don't know, are you leading your respective descendants to destruction? Wang Zhong fully exposed the cold face.
"Wang Zhongquan, don't mess around, we are the children of the Wang family! You can't mess around! A sect elder was suddenly shocked and sweating profusely.
"Messing around? Oh, to commit rebellion is a capital crime! Shoot the arrows! Wang Zhongquan gave an order.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a large number of arrows rained down, accompanied by a scream.
"Wang Zhongquan, you can't die well!" A sect elder roared.
There were five martial arts realms that rushed towards Wang Zhongquan in an instant, wanting to capture the thief and capture the king first.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!"
Wang Zhongquan slapped five times, and the five of them flew out upside down in an instant, and then were shot into hedgehogs by random arrows in mid-air.
"Don't you want to die? You will not die well! If you want to rebel, you have to pay the price, don't worry, the other three veins sect elders didn't come, but, if they participated in the rebellion, they will die, I will send them to see you soon! Wang Zhongquan said coldly.
Several people fled to the outside world.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
In the blink of an eye, he was beaten back by the powerful domestic servants outside the small courtyard. Of the more than 100 people, none of them escaped, and were targeted by random arrows.
A sect elder showed a sense of unwillingness and hatred on his face.
"Wang Zhongquan, so ruthless! Haha, today I am dead, but my children and grandchildren will avenge me! They are all members of the Wang family! They won't let you go! A sect elder said with a hideous expression.
Wang Zhongquan smiled coldly: "The old prince will tolerate you again and again because he cares about the bloodline of the Wang family, but I won't, I won't care about your bloodline, since you are rebellious, then you want to punish the clan, you are in this vein, you can rest assured, no matter whether it is male or female, I will not stay, cut the grass to eradicate the roots!" The old slave still understands! ”
"What? You, you dare! There's no way the prince would allow you to do that! The old man looked panicked before he died.
"So, before the prince returns, I will kill everyone in your lineage! I won't embarrass the prince! You can go with peace of mind, on Huangquan Road, I will reunite your family! Wang Zhong fully revealed the cold light and said.
"You, you, you......!" The old man said with a shocked expression.
In the blink of an eye, everyone in the small courtyard was killed.
"Tell me to go down, and it's time to start doing it everywhere! Remember, those on the list do not need to be left alive, and whoever wants to save them must replace them with his own life and that of his people! Wang Zhongquan ordered a servant with a cold look in his eyes.
"Yes!" The servant instantly burst into the sky with fireworks. Notify all the ready killers in the city that it's time to do it.
And such a big movement occurred in Wang Zhongquan's small courtyard, which soon attracted the children of other lines of the Wang family, and when they saw the corpses in the small courtyard, they immediately showed a look of surprise.
"Wang Zhongquan, you, you killed the third uncle? Ah, and the sixth uncle? A child of the Wang family exclaimed.
"They don't remember the king's grace, they want to seize the king's seal, set themselves up as kings, and they should be killed for the sake of rebellion! Adults who didn't participate, don't worry about it! Wang Zhongquan said coldly.
"You, you, you should arrest them and hand them over to the prince, they are also the children of my Wang family, you dare!" The Wang family disciple glared.
"Not only them, but their six veins, the old slave will be killed, as for the consequences, the old slave will ask the prince for his guilt, as for you? You didn't participate in the rebellion, but if you want to drag your line into the rebel faction, the old slave can fulfill you! Wang Zhongquan's eyes were cold.
"You dare!" The child of the Wang family shuddered and exclaimed.
Wang Zhong showed his coldness in an all-round way: "Go back and bring a message to your sect elders, let them remember clearly, the eastern fiefdom belongs to the prince, who dares to think crookedly, this group of people will end, hum!" ”
Flicking his sleeves, Wang Zhongquan didn't pay attention to the other Wang family disciples who rushed over, turned his head and left.
At this moment, the children of the Wang family were shocked to discover that this originally harmless general manager turned out to be a murderous demon?
