The strongest nine thousand years old
Chapter 54 Thorough Investigation of Cuihonglou
"Who is calling me?" A burly man with a strong build came over from the city guards.
It was the commander of the city guard, He Feng.
The fair-faced young man ran over immediately as if he had seen a savior, "Commander He, I'm Shuncheng!"
He Feng squinted his eyes and glanced at the fair-faced young man, recognizing his identity. However, he did not rush to express his opinion, but instead looked around at the others.
The night wind was strong and the lights were not very bright. He Feng did not recognize Chen Dong immediately, but he saw the flying fish suits on these people. This suit represented the Jinyiwei.
The Jinyiwei is now in its heyday, and no one dares to offend them.
"What's going on?" He Feng asked in a deep voice.
The fair-faced young man said angrily, "These people rushed in and arrested people without any reason. What crime have we committed? Do they still have the laws of Dayan in their eyes?"
He Feng frowned and looked at Yan Shisan who was closest to him, "Reason."
Yan Shisan said calmly, "Jinyiwei is doing the job."
He Feng laughed in anger, "How many people did you disturb while doing your work late at night? You made such a big noise that we thought Yanjing City was breached by thieves!"
"Can you bear the responsibility for disturbing His Majesty?"
"Don't put the blame on me. Our commander will naturally go and talk to His Majesty." Yan Shisan said.
"What a big tone!" He Feng sneered, "A eunuch, do you really think you are the reincarnation of the God of War? It just happened that you wrote three strategies, and General Xiao used them. The key to defeating the enemy is still General Xiao!"
Yan Shisan was also mean and deliberately provoked trouble, "Commander He, do you look down on our commander? You are just a backstage talent."
He Feng snorted coldly, "I said so in front of him!"
"Crackling"
The torch made a crackling sound.
All the Jinyiwei looked at He Feng quietly, especially Yan Shisan. When he looked at He Feng, it was as if he was looking at a dead person.
This subtle change made He Feng's heart tighten. His right hand subconsciously grasped the hilt of the knife.
"tread"
Heavy footsteps sounded.
Chen Dong's tall and straight figure walked out of the darkness that was not illuminated by the fire. He looked at He Feng indifferently and said word by word: "Say it again."
He Feng's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He never expected that not only were the Jinyiwei here on duty, but the commander of the Jinyiwei was here in person!
Although they were both commanders, he was the commander of the city guards, and he only had one city. The Jinyiwei, on the other hand, monitored the entire country, and the commander's position was even more influential. The two were incomparable.
He Feng even wanted to turn around and leave.
However, he didn't dare to really leave, because if he did, he wouldn't be able to explain anything.
"Commander Chen." He Feng gritted his teeth and took the initiative to salute. He took the initiative to give in, being a head shorter than Chen Dong, just to make Chen Dong show some leniency.
Chen Dong said expressionlessly, "Commander He wants to stop the Jinyiwei from doing their job?"
"I didn't express myself clearly just now. The city guards are responsible for the safety of the city, and it is their duty to arrest people. Commander Chen can give me instructions if you have anything." He Feng said frankly.
Chen Dong jokingly said, "Really?"
"City Guards!" He Feng shouted, "Assist the Royal Guards in arresting people!"
At He Feng's command, the city guards immediately took action. They assisted the Jinyiwei and captured all the people in Cuihong Tower.
Seeing the change in He Feng's attitude, the fair-faced young man began to feel uneasy. Although he was a playboy, he was not stupid and knew that there were many hidden talents in Yanjing City.
And he also realized that he had hit a wall.
He wanted to hide in the crowd, but Yan Shijiu pulled him out and threw him in front of Chen Dong.
"Are you scared? Young Master Shangshu." Chen Dong looked at the young man with a pale face like a quail and curled his lips in disdain.
If you try to stand out when you have the ability, it's called showing off; if you try to stand out when you don't have the ability, it's called embarrassing.
Not only his own people were lost, but also the people of the Minister of Works.
The fair-faced young man forced a smile and said, "I was blind and didn't recognize the great man. Commander Chen, please don't hold it against me. After daybreak, I will immediately go to the Jinyiwei to apologize."
Chen Dong laughed and said, "I am the most hospitable person. Don't wait until dawn, come now."
"Nineteen, put him in prison."
Yan Shijiu grabbed the collar of the fair-faced young man and walked away. He couldn't help but yell, "Let me go! Let me go!"
"I'm not going to the Imperial Prison!!"
The fair-faced young man shouted in fear, but it was in vain in front of Yan Nineteen. How could a young man whose body was hollowed out by alcohol and sex compete with a warrior like Yan Nineteen?
Yan Shijiu thought he was being a little noisy, so he slapped him twice, "If you keep yelling, I'll pull out your tongue!"
After being slapped twice, the fair-faced young man immediately became obedient and was taken away without saying a word.
The others were suddenly startled.
The son of the Shangshu family was arrested at will. Commander Chen really has great connections!
And Chen Dong's move was clearly to kill the chicken to scare the monkey!
He Feng was frightened by Chen Dong's tricks, and a thin layer of cold sweat oozed out of his forehead. He was worried that he would be the next one to be dealt with.
"Commander Chen, is there anything else you need the city guards to help you with?" He Feng took the initiative to ask.
Chen Dong's eyes had scanned the people outside several times, but he did not see the old riddle man, nor did he see Xiao Cui.
"Where is Xiao Cui?" Chen Dong asked the madam.
The madam looked around and was a little puzzled. "It was there just now."
"Search the entire city and find two people for me." Chen Dong ordered He Feng.
Although He Feng looked a little embarrassed, he gritted his teeth and agreed when he thought of Chen Dong's identity, "I will definitely do it."
Chen Dong asked the madam to bring a pen and charcoal, and immediately drew the appearance of the old man and Xiao Cui on paper and handed it to He Feng.
He Feng was stunned.
This kind of painting technique is simply unheard of. Moreover, the portrait is extremely realistic, as if it were a real person.
"Take the brothers and search door to door." He Feng handed the portrait to his men and ordered sternly, "We must find the person alive or the body dead!"
"As ordered!"
A team of people took the portraits to look for people, and Chen Dong drew two more portraits and gave them to He Feng.
He Feng was shocked again and handed over the two portraits in his hand.
When it was about to dawn, all the city guards under He Feng's command were sent out. More than a dozen teams were looking for the old riddle man and Xiao Cui.
Such commotion also woke up the city of Yanjing ahead of time. People gathered in the streets and couldn't help but talk about who those two people were that they had to be hunted down in such a high-profile manner.
"Eunuch Chen, the emperor summons you." The young eunuch in the palace ran over hurriedly and asked Chen Dong to enter the palace.
With such a big commotion at Cuihonglou, Chen Dong never thought that he could keep it secret forever.
He asked Yan Shisan to bring everyone back to the imperial prison. Among these people, there might be accomplices of those two men.
He immediately went into the palace and reported the matter of Cuihong Tower to Yan Yunzheng.
"You mean, you might be a traitor?" Yan Yunzheng looked at Chen Dong with a strange expression.
