Chapter 454 Wang Geng's Choice

The time has passed, and the night has long been late. There was no one on the empty South Street. Only two carriages drove on the street one after the guard of dozens of soldiers with torches, but the speed was not fast. Wang Geng, who was so anxious, really couldn't sit still, but he didn't dare to urge him. Just because Zhang Jianzhi was sitting on his side steadily - since he received the order of thorough investigation from the British king, Wang Geng couldn't wait to insert his wings and fly straight to the post station. However, Zhang Jianzhi did not seem to be in a hurry. He took the initiative to invite Wang Geng to take the same car, but after getting on the car, he did not say a word and let the guards of the British royal palace who accompanied him follow. He walked around, and the unfathomable appearance made Wang Geng want to say it a few times and then stop.

In terms of official title, the thin hat of the owner of the royal palace worn on Zhang Jianzhi's head is really rare. The left and right are just small officials from the sixth grade, not to mention that this official position is still a subordinate to the vassal royal palace. Even if it is not as good as the seven-grade county magistrate of the official of the officialdom of the full river, who will be It is not clear that Zhang Jianzhi is the absolute confidant of Li Xian, the king of England. One person can be the family of the British king's mansion. Whenever Li Xian is away, all the military and political orders issued from the governor's mansion are written by him. Like such a figure, who dares to ignore it? At least Wang Geng does not dare to do so. At this time, in the face With Zhang Jianzhi's silence, Wang Geng could only endure it again and again, no matter how anxious he was.

"Lord Zhang, Your Highness has entrusted this case to us, but I don't know if Lord Zhang has any regulations?"

When it comes to his own affairs, Wang Geng can't really be calm. After this patience, he finally can't stand it anymore, and he can't care about politeness or impoliteness. He even saves greetings and directly cuts into the topic.

"That depends on the needs of Lord Wang."

Zhang Jianzhi looked at Wang Geng with a smile and answered an intriguing sentence calmly and unusually.

"Huh? What does Lord Zhang mean by this? I don't know what I want to do. Please ask Lord Zhang to explain it in detail.

Although Wang Geng is good at government affairs, he is not very good at plotting power. He frowned and thought for a long time, but he still didn't understand the meaning of Zhang Jianzhi's words, so he had to ask for advice.

"It's not difficult to settle this case. It's just the extent of the difference, but I don't know what kind of result Lord Wang wants?"

Zhang Jianzhi did not answer Wang Geng's question directly, but quietly said.

"Of course..." Although Wang Geng is not unauthorized, he may be the high position of the assassin of Zhongzhou. Naturally, he will not be a fool. Originally, he wanted to say that he completely found out the case, but as soon as he said half of the words, he realized that something was wrong. He couldn't help but stop, looked at Zhang Jian's eyes suspiciously, and said in a tone: " In Lord Zhang's opinion, to what extent should this case be settled?

"This case is not settled or not, or how it is not, it is not involved in Zhang, nor is it involved in our British royal palace, but Lord is a major event related to the future. What does it mean? Please ask Lord Wang to consider it by yourself."

The key to how to settle the case is not how Wang Geng acts, but how to choose the Yue Wangfu family. Naturally, Zhang Jianzhi knows this point. The only difference is that he is not sure to what extent the Yue Wangfu family will retreat. However, Zhang Jianzhi obviously does not intend to tell Wang Geng about this matter, and It was the clouds and mountains that circled around, but it was time for Wang Geng to stand in his words.

"This..."

Wang Geng is not stupid. He can hear the hints in Zhang Jianzhi's words, but this is in conflict with his principles of life. In addition, he lacks enough confidence in solving the case. For a while, he didn't know how to respond.

"There is a big tree in Hexi. I'm just a bird nesting on it."

Zhang Jianzhi glanced at Wang Geng with deep meaning, said a pun, and then closed his eyes, which made it clear that he didn't want to talk more deeply.

When the tree falls down, the bird can fly away, but the nest is bound to be unpreserved. As for the eggs in the nest, of course, it is only broken to the ground. In addition, even if the bird can fly away, it still has to perch on the tree. At the bottom, it still has to find another big tree to live in. Can this new tree be as comfortable as before? Well, that's hard to say. The truth is not very profound. In terms of Wang Geng's IQ, he can see it clearly, but it is not easy for him to make a choice. With this thought, he couldn't help but be fascinated. After a long time, he was speechless, and the carriage immediately fell into a silent silence again. .

"Two adults, the post station has arrived."

No matter how slow the carriage was, there was the moment when he finally arrived at the destination. Just as Wang Geng was meditating, the carriage stopped. Xiao Sanlang, who accompanied him, saw that there was no movement in the carriage for a long time, and had to come to the curtain and reminded him in a low voice.

"Aren't you here? Oh, okay, okay, Lord Zhang, please!"

Being disturbed by Xiao Sanlang, Wang Geng immediately woke up from the state of Shenyou and peeked at Zhang Jianzhi. Seeing that his eyes were still closed, he had no reaction at all. His heart could not help trembling, and his mouth was inevitably unclear.

"Lord Wang, please."

Zhang Jianzhi's capital has been made clear. As for how Wang Geng will decide, Zhang Jianzhi also doesn't care very much. In his opinion, if Wang Geng is willing to return, he can save a lot of trivial matters. If he doesn't, it's not a big deal. The British King's Mansion is full of talents, and we need to find someone who can be the governor of Lanzhou. The person is not difficult at all. At worst, it will take a little time. I don't bother to mention Wang Geng again, so I nodded my head indifferently, waved my hand, and simply said "please".

"Hmm."

Wang Geng was very thoughtful, and he really didn't want to be more polite. He said something absent-mindedly. He swung down and stepped out of the carriage. In his eyes, he saw Ye Shengzheng, dressed in blue, strode forward. He couldn't help but be happy and hurried over.

"Your Excellency."

Ye Shengsu didn't like to say too much. Although he was respectful, he didn't say too much. He just simply greeted him.

"Ye Sheng, you finally came. When did you arrive? What's the situation now?"

Ye Sheng was Wang Geng's most trusted confidant. When he received the news of the crime earlier, Wang Geng had sent someone to summon Ye Sheng as soon as possible. But when Wang Geng had completed the preliminary investigation of the scene, he had never seen Ye Sheng appear, which made Wang Geng quite anxious. At this time, he saw that Ye Sheng finally arrived at the scene, and Wang Geng's heart was confident. It's a little more than enough, but it's urgent. Wang Geng didn't care much about greeting, so he directly asked about the survey results.

"Ye has been here for a while, and there is no progress yet."

Ye Sheng always claimed to be his subordinate to Wang Geng in the past, but this time it was not like this. After a simple answer, he did not say much to Wang Geng, but strode to meet Zhang Jianzhi, who got off the carriage and bowed to the end, "See Mr. Zhang."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Jianzhi received Ye Sheng's big gift very calmly, but Xu Xu raised his hand and motioned Ye Shengping to be flat.

"My subordinates? Ye Sheng, do you know Lord Zhang?

Hearing that Ye Sheng claimed to be his subordinate to Zhang Jianzhi, Wang Geng couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at Zhang and Ye suspiciously and asked suspiciously.

"Yes, a certain British royal palace is in charge of marriage, and now it's time to return to the construction. In the past, Mr. Ye is very grateful for his patronage."

Ye Shengman looked at Wang Geng apologetically and answered respectfully, and then stopped talking. He strode behind Zhang Jianzhi, stood up with his sword, took over Xiao Sanlang's command with his actions, and temporarily served as the commander of the accompanying bodyguard.

"You..., alas..."

Wang Geng has always regarded Ye Sheng as his absolute confidant, but he did not expect that Ye Sheng was Li Xian's person. Under this shock, he was the same. A sense of blinded anger surged into his heart in an instant, but soon he was replaced by a huge sense of depression. He shook his head weakly and was choking his words.

"Your Excellency, it's getting late. Your Highness is still waiting for a reply."

Zhang Jianzhi is one of the most wise people today. Although he is slightly worse than Di Renjie in the grasp of people's hearts, he is not comparable to idle people. Seeing that Wang Geng's anger has been lost, he will not let go of such a good opportunity to exert pressure, so he once again said with a pun.

"Your Highness is really smart. Wang sighed and tried his best. He really didn't dare to let your Highness wait for a long time."

Wang Geng has been an assassin for a long time. Once he made a decision, he was not slow to act. After taking a deep breath, he bowed to Zhang Jianzhi and made the final choice.

"Good, Lord Wang will be glad that today's choice is the same. Zhang will not say anything superfluous. He also asked Lord Wang to order the whole city to search immediately. As for the rest of the reasons, Your Highness will make a decision."

More things are better than less than less things. If you can get Wang Geng's return, you can avoid the trouble of changing horses. Zhang Jianzhi did not leave this trip in vain. Seeing that the matter has been settled smoothly, Zhang Jianzhi no longer pretending to be mysterious, which gave Wang Geng a reassurance.

"No!" Since he had decided to attach to Li Xian, Wang Geng was less reserved and lowered his position without hesitation. He was willing to live under Zhang Jianzhi and respectfully answered the promise. Then he walked to a group of Lanzhou military and political officials who stayed in the distance and raised his voice and ordered, "Listen to each department. Your Highness has an order: the whole city will be under martial law immediately. Search the whole city, strictly investigate, and be sure to find out where the thief who attacked the post station is!"

"No!"

Hearing Wang Geng's words, no one dared to raise doubts about Li Xian's order. They answered loudly, and Wang Geng assigned divisions to deploy the whole city in preparation for the big search after dawn...
