"The Jianfengshan family is a powerful and influential family, and they are a well-known force in the martial arts world. It may not be easy to deal with them on the grounds of treason."

Xu Feng understood that Honglian might have something else to say.

After a little thought, he understood what the other party meant.

Jianfengshan definitely has someone behind him in the court. After all, martial artists in the martial arts world are just martial artists in the martial arts world, and are far inferior to those in the imperial court.

You can get a general understanding by referring to Gusu City.

A small manager can curry favor with the two major government offices in the city, and both sides get what they need and protect each other.

What’s more, it is such a big sect.

"It doesn't matter. As long as the tricks aren't old-fashioned and useful, it's fine. Besides, this time we're not killing for the sake of killing."

"More importantly, we need to warn the interests behind them not to overextend their power. I understand your intention, but you're wary of the power behind them. But don't forget who our biggest backer is."

Hearing Xu Feng's words, Honglian seemed to be lost in thought. That's right, when it comes to background, who can be bigger than them?

The Jinyiwei has the emperor's support behind them, so what if the incident reaches the court? Perhaps the emperor would like to see such an outcome.

Seeing Xu Feng's long-term vision, Honglian couldn't help but look at him with admiration again.

"You are too suited to the imperial court. You are useless in Gusu City."

"How can you say it's useless? I've been waiting for you in Gusu City. If I'd stayed somewhere else, I don't know when we'd meet again."

Honglian and Xu Feng complement each other.

One has a powerful background, the other is bold and careful. It’s not that Honglian is indecisive. Her background is a help to her, but sometimes it can also be a hindrance.

Before doing anything, Honglian has to consider the father of Shengju Temple and her elder brother.

She may be living a carefree life outside, but once the news gets back to the court, it will definitely give those people in the Censorate a reason to impeach her brother and father.

This resulted in Honglian lacking Xu Feng's aggressiveness at all costs, and Xu Feng also had a shortcoming, which was that he had no background.

When you encounter some tough opponents who cannot solve the problem, they will definitely find a way to get rid of you.

With Honglian around, the other party will be wary.

"So what should we do next?"

Xu Feng glanced at Honglian speechlessly. He felt that Honglian had become the mascot of the Jinyiwei. She just had to stand there and do nothing. Everything was thrown to him. He was simply too lazy to think about it.

"This matter must be reported to the court. How about this? You keep a portion of the silver you received this time to reward your brothers, and write a memorial to the emperor to return the rest to the treasury."

"There is one thing you must pay attention to. When this money is sent back to the court, don't let anyone else know. Send it directly to the palace, preferably to His Majesty."

The emperors all had their own private treasury, and there was a fundamental difference between sending money to the court and sending it to the emperor.

If the money is given to the court, it will definitely go into the pockets of the six ministries. Whether the emperor can keep it depends on the ministers' mood. The ministers have too many reasons to prevent the emperor from having anything to do with the money.

This is a small detail that subordinates should consider.

"What's the difference? All the stolen money I confiscated before was sent to the court. I don't have to worry about anyone embezzling this kind of stolen money."

Obviously Honglian misunderstood Xu Feng's meaning.

This forced Xu Feng to explain everything to her again. After hearing his explanation, Honglian called him a treacherous villain.

"I take back my previous comments about you. If you appear in the court, you will definitely be despised by those scholars. They will call you a treacherous villain."

Xu Feng didn't care at all. In his opinion, this method was nothing. In comparison, those scholars talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality, but what they did was worse than that of animals, and was of no benefit to the country or the people.

At least he is a man of practical work, and this is the kind of person the emperor needs most right now.

He just needs to get things done, and the emperor will naturally take care of the rest for him.

At first he was thinking about joining the Six Gates, but now it seems that the Jinyiwei has a wider future and is more suitable for him.

"Must I write down all the amounts clearly? According to the rules, Jinyiwei are not allowed to embezzle money while on a mission. If I write down the amounts clearly, will His Majesty blame me?"

Honglian is a smart person, but he seems a little naive when it comes to social skills.

Of course, such things must be written clearly. If Xu Feng guessed correctly, there must be other people in the Jinyiwei general flag who would submit memorials to the emperor every day.

In other words, the emperor knew exactly what was happening here, and it was impossible to hide it, so it would be better to tell the emperor directly.

This will gain more trust from the emperor. If they really keep it a secret like Honglian did, the emperor will definitely be suspicious of them.

He didn't say it explicitly, but just mentioned Honglian briefly.

Some things are not suitable to be brought to the surface.

Honglian is quite good at writing memorials. They have achieved such great results in just a few days after entering the city. The emperor will definitely be very satisfied with their actions.

What's more, so much silver flowed into the emperor's private treasury, and writing the memorial had another meaning, which was to reward according to merit.

The person who contributed the most was Xu Feng, and several general flags also had to be taken care of, after all, they had been busy outside these days.

"By the way, we must also report them to the Six Gates. No matter what, Huangfu Kaidu openly let the rebels go. You only need to record the situation truthfully in the memorial. As for how His Majesty will judge it, that is not something you and I can guess."

Why not give the Six Gates a slap in the face? Even if this incident doesn't seriously damage the Six Gates, it will leave a thorn in the emperor's heart.

When the day comes that they actually commit a crime, this thorn will kill them.

Besides, the Six Gates were already riddled with holes, and the interior was rotten to an unknown degree. The emperor must have known this for a long time, but he just had no reason to take action.

"I'll leave the garrison here to you. I need to go see the county magistrate and ask him to issue a wanted order for all the disciples of Jianfeng Mountain."

The Jinyiwei could also do this themselves, but the effect would definitely be far inferior to Huang Wenzhong.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Huang Wenzhong and Jian Fengshan are definitely having an affair. If he issues this wanted order, it will inevitably create a rift between the two families.

This is a hundred benefits for the Jinyiwei and has no harm.

This idiot Zuo Jincheng did help Xu Feng before he died. If he hadn't ambushed and killed Xu Feng, there would have been no such good reason.

Xu Feng came to the door in person, and Huang Wenzhong went out to greet him in person.

Although he knew that the visitor had ill intentions, he had no choice but to go and meet him with a flattering face. He didn't know how many times he had cursed Jian Fengshan in his heart.
