Chapter 760: The Snake Spirit Case is concluded
In the Qianniuwei General's Mansion, in addition to the general, there are two generals and four lieutenant generals to assist the general.
Among the two powerful generals, Gao Huan and Hu Jinghui are both strong contenders for the position of general.
If General Huan Bin passes away one day, the next general will be selected from among the two generals.
However, Li Yuanfang, the Inspector General of the Thousand Oxen Guard, did not have the qualifications to be promoted to the rank of General of the Thousand Oxen Guard. He was only a nominal general with the honorary title of Li Yuanfang. In the end, he was promoted to the Inspector General of the Thousand Oxen Guard.
After adding the word "Jianxiu", Li Yuanfang's life took on a new positioning: bodyguard of expatriate officials.
This Inspector General no longer posed any threat to the other Generals of the Household.
The ultimate goal of Chen Shi and other generals of the Household was to replace a certain general.
Now, Chen Shi sees hope.
Hu Jinghui will be serving as a subordinate of Li Cunxi, and his status will definitely be changed to Inspector General of the Qianniu Guard.
Each person has his own place. When Hu Jinghui, the carrot, is moved away, the four generals of the Central Army will see an opportunity for advancement.
Chen Shi was concentrating intently, ready to listen to the emperor announce the appointment of the new General of the Qianniu Guard.
However, the emperor had ordered Li Wenzhong, Li Hui, Xiao Mei and Xiao Feng to come out, and had not yet appointed the new general of the Qianniu Guard.
Suddenly, Chen Shi's face fell.
"No, Your Majesty just said that General Hu should obey the orders of the King of Qin, but he didn't say that General Hu should be promoted to the Inspector General of the Thousand Oxen Guards."
Chen Shi felt a chill in his heart when he realized this problem.
In other words, there will still be two Qianniu Guard generals in the future, but Hu Jinghui will not need to get up early and stay up late to protect the emperor, and he can follow Qin Wang Li Cunxi to enjoy the good life from time to time.
They went from working six shifts to five shifts, and their workload increased.
Thinking of this, Chen Shi became even more depressed.
After the court was dismissed, Li Cunxi came out to see Hu Jinghui, persuaded his good brother Hu Jinghui to work his last shift, and then left.
Hu Jinghui glanced at Chen Shi, who had a sad face, and thought that the other party was reluctant to part with him, so he walked over.
"It's okay. We're all at Qianniuwei General's Mansion. There will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future."
"Please help me make an appointment with George Han, Chen Ben, and Liu Tao. I will treat them to a couple of drinks at my house tomorrow night to catch up on our friendship."
Chen Shi nodded heavily and said, "General Gao Huan will be on duty tomorrow night, and we will definitely be there."
The four Generals of the Central Army were blocked from progress at the same time. Since there was no way to change the outcome, let's change our thinking.
It’s nice to sit under a big tree and enjoy the shade!
Who doesn’t know that Hu Jinghui calls Di Renjie “Dad” and is also on close terms with Li Cunxi?
After the court was dismissed, Li Cunxi returned to the Prince of Qin's Mansion and waited for the eunuch to deliver the imperial edict.
The only official who received a substantial reward for solving the Snake Spirit case was Li Wenzhong.
Li Wenzhong, who had changed back to his original name, greeted the eunuch who came to announce the imperial edict with trepidation.
"Your Highness, Duke Huang, here is His Majesty's decree. I will not read it out. Please read it for yourself."
"You know the content yourself."
The eunuch tactfully handed over the imperial edict, but he did not dare to let Li Cunxi kneel before him to receive it.
Li Cunxi winked at Ma Rong, and Ma Rong quickly left the yard, asked Xuguzi for some silver, then hurried back and stuffed the silver into the eunuch's arms.
"Father-in-law, please accept this small gift."
When the eunuch smiled, his wrinkled face looked like a chrysanthemum.
"Butler Ma is very famous in the capital."
"It's not easy to get these from Butler Ma."
Ma Rong's reputation was already well-known and had long been completely ruined by Xuguzi and Qiao Tai.
At this moment, he had nothing to say, so he simply stepped aside and stopped communicating with the eunuch.
"Your Highness Prince Qin, Your Highness Duke Huang, I will withdraw now."
The eunuch saluted the two men and then left with the other eunuchs.
Li Wenzhong spread out the imperial edict and looked down.
He was listed above the imperial decree that he would inherit the Duke of Huang's throne. The imperial decree also stated that he could inherit the Duke of Huang's residence in faraway Jiangzhou.
However, the mansion has become a tourist attraction only, and Li Wenzhong does not want to go back to live there.
"Is this case over? Can we go back to the way things were?" Li Wenzhong licked his cracked lips.
"Yes."
Li Cunxi said uncertainly.
If the Snake Spirit case was really over, he would have heard the system's notification by now.
The reward for the Snake Spirit Case should have been distributed.
But no system voice sounded in his mind so far.
"Strange, could it be that this case is only considered closed after the snake spirit disappears?"
Li Cunxi frowned and began to think about what was happening in Yangzhou.
Logically speaking, Long Feng should also work with Li Qingxia to merge the Iron Hand Group and the Snake Spirit Organization.
……
Three days later, Yangzhou.
Outside Crouching Tiger Manor, a large group of people in purple robes, led by Li Qingxia and Long Feng, came to the gate of Crouching Tiger Manor.
Yuan Tiangang looked at the nearby Wohu Manor with his eyes narrowed.
"Is this the place where I shall be?"
"This is indeed your home, but you won't stay in Crouching Tiger Village forever."
Li Qingxia stood with her hands behind her back, her eyebrows curved in a heroic manner.
"Yuan Tiangang, remember this, remember this. From now on, you will no longer be called Yuan Tiangang, but Yuan Gang."
Yuan Tiangang's face fell.
His name was changed, and after a long time, no one believed him when he said that Yuan Tiangang was still alive.
"What about you, Jin Mulan?" Yuan Tiangang looked at Li Qingxia depressedly.
"Me? My name is Li Qingxia. I've always been called Li Qingxia. The Jin Mulan you mentioned died in the snake pit."
The gate of Crouching Tiger Manor slowly opened, and members of the Iron Hand Group dressed in purple clothes walked out.
Chen Yiqiu, who returned early, came out to greet them with his men.
"From now on, our Iron Hand Group will be merged with the Snake Spirit."
"As for the name, let's call it the Iron Snake Group."
"A name is just a title. You can call it anything you want."
Long Feng and Li Qingxia walked in front to discuss the merger issue.
Almost all the remaining hall masters of Snake Spirit have been brought here, and they will be arranged into positions and set up in various halls later.
Yuan Tiangang looked at these people, and when he thought that the new Iron Snake Group had nothing to do with him, he suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
He was the founder of Snake Spirit, but in the end he ended up alone.
It’s sad to think about it.
"Yuan Gang, don't feel too bad. After all, we didn't kill you. This is a good thing for you."
Li Qingxia had no intention of respecting the elderly and loving the young, and she dealt a severe blow to Yuan Tiangang's weak heart.
Yuan Tiangang was extremely sad and angry, but he could do nothing but follow the crowd and walk towards the main hall of Wohu Manor.
At the same time, in Luoyang City, inside the Prince of Qin's Palace.
A long-lost sound rang in Li Cunxi's mind.
"Congratulations to the host..."
