I embezzled 100,000 taels at the beginning, and the empress begged me to be more greedy

"Since you insist on forcing me, then don't worry about my cruelty. I will make you disappear directly, and the court will not be able to track you down!"

Li Yang's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

In an instant, the killers' swords were already aimed at Jiang Zuo and others.

But Jiang Zuo's expression remained unchanged, and there was no trace of fear on his face.

Suddenly, a scream of pain was heard.

Actually, several people were kicked in from outside the house, fell to the ground, and screamed in pain.

Seeing this, the killers in the house couldn't help but stop their actions.

The sounds of fighting and shouting could be heard again, and the loud and orderly footsteps were getting closer and closer.

"What are you all doing! Come on!"

Li Yang shouted anxiously.

In fact, he also knew that Jiang Zuo was also protected by the Thousand Cavalry Division, so it would not be easy to kill him.

But now Li Yang has no way out.

Jiang Zuo was the governor-general of Zhenbei and was following the emperor's orders. If he escaped this time, the Li family would surely be doomed. And now Li Wenjian was in Jiang Zuo's hands.

Li Yang had no choice but to fight!

The killers in the lobby were all desperate criminals. They had no way to retreat and could only swing their swords at Jiang Zuo.

But before they could make their first move, dozens of soldiers in military uniforms rushed in from outside the door.

These soldiers were all tall and had fierce eyes. After just a few moves, they completely killed all the villains.

"Keep Li Yang alive."

Jiang Zuo gave the instructions slowly.

After all, Li Yang’s role is still very important now.

How many officials in the court were in collusion with the Li family could only be learned from Li Yang's mouth.

The empress's goal is to completely eliminate the corrupt forces in the court.

Li Yang was desperate at this moment, holding the dagger, and was about to stab Jiang Zuo.

But he was used to being a master, so how could he be a match for Ma Hengwei?

Ma Hengwei only needed to swing his sword, and the weapon Li Yang mentioned fell to the ground, making it impossible for him to resist.

At this moment, a deep voice was heard.

"The Longwu Army, under the order of the Emperor, has come to protect Lord Jiang."

The man who spoke was wearing dragon warrior armor and had an extraordinary appearance.

Longwu Army!

Hearing these three words, Li Yang was almost frightened to death.

Almost all Dayan people are familiar with this name.

They are the family guard troops of the current emperor, the elite of the imperial guards!

"Tiger Force, listen up! Search for all traces of the killer!"

At this time, someone was heard shouting outside the door.

Dragon's might! Tiger's might!

They are all relatives of the emperor, and now they have gathered in Yecheng to protect Jiangzuo.

"Jiang Zuo, who on earth are you?"

At this moment, Li Yang was filled with despair.

He originally thought that he had only offended an ordinary official of the imperial court, but he did not expect that the other party's power was far beyond Li Yang's judgment.

Li Yang collapsed to the ground in despair, no longer able to resist.

"Ma Fusi, go up and arrest him yourself."

Jiang Zuo gave the order.

This was the order Ma Hengwei had been longing for.

When Jiang Zuo was injured these days, Li Yang mocked him many times and showed off his power in front of him, which made the Qianqi Division feel angry.

Ma Hengwei stepped forward quickly and tied up Li Yang with the rope in his hand.

"grown ups."

Ma Hengwei turned his head.

"Take him and parade him through the streets!"

Jiang Zuo ordered again.

"You bunch of bastards, let me go. I have the imperial token bestowed by the late emperor. Who dares to catch me?"

Li Yang continued to struggle.

Imperial token?

Do you think the current emperor will recognize it?

Jiang Zuo completely ignored Li Yang's words.

"The prisoner Li Yang assassinated an official of the imperial court with the intention of treason. He will be escorted back to the capital immediately to await his punishment!"

Li Yang raised his head, his eyes full of anger, and cursed: "You dog official, I will definitely kill you, just wait!"

He was terrified in his heart, but he still kept his mouth shut and didn't let himself show any panic.

Jiang Zuo ignored this incompetent roar and turned around to order: "Ask the emperor to confiscate the Li Mansion."

How wealthy is this Jiangnan family? Perhaps we will get the answer after a few days when the emperor's edict arrives.

Soon, the elite troops of the Longwu and Huwei armies turned the entire Li Mansion upside down.

All personnel in the Li residence were arrested.

Li Yang, the head of the Li family, was being escorted by Ma Hengwei himself to the streets of Yecheng.

Li Wenjian was protected by the Qianqi Division and served as a witness in the Li Yang case.

In fact, Jiang Zuo had already learned of Li Wenjian's whereabouts two days ago and deliberately set up this plan to force Li Yang to reveal his true colors.

With the help of these two elite warriors, Longwu and Huwei, Jiang Zuo has nothing to fear at this moment.

At this moment, Yecheng is bustling with people.

"Look, Master Jiang!"

"Master Jiang is fine. Master Jiang is still alive!"

The people were so ecstatic that they almost surrounded Jiangzuo.

In order to prevent the previous accident from happening again, the Qianqi Division kept the people outside.

But as more and more people gathered, the situation gradually got out of control.

Seeing this, Jiang Zuo stood on a high place and shouted loudly: "Everyone, I am here on the orders of the emperor to catch the bully. Now I have accomplished my mission and won the help of all the villagers... Please keep order, stand on both sides of the street, don't block others, and appreciate the appearance of this bully..."

After hearing what Jiang Zuo said, the people also stood on both sides and cast their eyes towards the center.

Looking through the guards, one can still clearly see the bully inside.

"It's actually Master Li!"

"What Master Li? He's just a beast! Die!"

"The real bully was caught!"

"Good! Lord Jiang is wise!"

"It's ridiculous that the head of the Jiangnan Li family is so embarrassed..."

"He was so bold as to assassinate Lord Jiang, and it was his own fault that he ended up like this."

The people were talking about it and almost wanted to throw rotten eggs at Li Yang.

Li Yang hung his head at this moment, feeling extremely angry.

After being so powerful for so many years, he was defeated by a young boy.

shame!

Li Yang raised his head and shouted loudly: "If I don't take revenge, I'm not a gentleman!"

"What did he say? Are you stupid?"

The people ignored it and continued their discussion.

"Now that he has committed a capital crime, he still wants revenge?"

Li Yang continued to talk nonstop, cursing, "You bunch of unruly people, wait for me to come back, I will kill you all one by one! I am from the Jiangnan Li family! Half of the officials in the court are from our Li family, and you, a lousy governor, just wait to die! No one can offend the Li family!"

Hearing this, the people watching couldn't help but frown.

Indeed, the power of the Jiangnan Li family is something that these common people cannot afford to provoke.

Just as Li Yang said, nearly half of the officials in the court had connections with the Jiangnan families. If one really wanted to get rid of the Jiangnan Li family, it would probably not be an easy task.

"Are you scared? I have a token bestowed by Emperor Gaozu, so I don't have to face the death penalty. You, a dog official, just wait..."

Snapped!

Before Li Yang could finish his words, Jiang Zuo slapped him hard in the face.
