Chapter 158 Secrets

Chu Xiu's provocative words did not resonate with the warriors present too much. Except for Du Guangzhong and a few confidants who were more active, the rest of the warriors were not too interested.

Those who can work in the Guanzhong Criminal Hall are considered people who have seen the world, and they are not so easily incited. In other words, they are also very realistic.

Those who are capable study hard to climb up, while those who are incapable, all they can see are the benefits in front of them.

Now that Chu Xiu has just taken office, they haven't seen any benefits. It is obviously impossible to make them work with just these words.

Of course Chu Xiu didn't care, he just continued: "There is one more thing I want to inform everyone. Wu Siping and his men were hunted down by the demonic murderer 'Yinshan Laomo' Dugu Fang who was wanted by me in Guanzhong. The devil slaughtered with brutal hands, and his subordinates were also slaughtered by this devil. He died in the line of duty, and I have already ordered him to be buried properly.

I, the Guanzhong Criminal Hall, have worked hard to guard the safety of the Guanzhong area over the years, but my life is my own, and I have to be more careful when performing tasks in the future. "

As soon as these words came out, the complexions of everyone present changed a little, and some smart people seemed to have already figured out what was going on.

The Yinshan old devil 'Dugu Fang' is a master who has stepped into the realm of gathering three flowers, and he is indeed capable of slaughtering Wu Siping and others.

But the problem was that Wu Siping didn't seem like the kind of person who would risk his life just to capture this kind of evil thug, and they didn't seem to have heard that Wu Siping had taken anyone out during this time.

Thinking about it this way, it is obvious what the reason is.

Everyone's hearts turned cold, let's not talk about the ability of this new adult, but this attack is ruthless enough.

"Okay, let's end here first. Let's leave everyone and continue to patrol. Du Guangzhong, Liu Chengli and Qin Fang will take charge of Wu Siping's territory."

Hearing these words, these fast arresters said loudly: "Yes! My lord!"

This time their momentum was much higher than before.

With so much space vacated by Wu Siping's subordinates, they will naturally continue to take charge of it. In this way, the power in their hands will be greater than before. Only when they see the benefits can they be motivated, right?

After everyone else dispersed, Chu Xiu directly called Du Guangzhong and the others to the study.

After letting the three of them sit down, Chu Xiu asked: "It seems that the morale of the arresters at the entrance of the Jianzhou inspector's hall is not very high?"

Liu Chengli smiled wryly and said: "My lord, there are six inspectors in Kansai, but our Jianzhou inspector is the weakest one, and the income is also the lowest. Of course, the morale of the people under him is low."

Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it because of the inspector of the previous generation?"

Liu Chengli nodded and said: "Basically, there are two main reasons, one is that the area of ​​the state capital I built is not large, and the other inspectors with stronger strength even manage two state capitals by themselves.

In addition, Mr. Fang, the inspector of the previous generation, was a little too upright. Except for the little salary, the brothers under him didn't even see a little bit of oil and water, but he always let the brothers under him go out to perform tasks. , Capture those murderers and thieves who are not easy to mess with.

Although my duty in the Guanzhong Criminal Hall is like this, at least I have to do what I can, right?

Every time he makes a shot, he suffers heavy losses, and even if he succeeds in catching someone in the end, the rewards from the higher-ups are pitifully small.

Mr. Fang is not greedy, and all the rewards given out are handed over to these brothers under him, but those things are divided among hundreds of people, which is not enough to fit between teeth. "

Liu Chengli's tone was full of resentment. Blocking people's money is like killing their parents. Although Fang Zhengyuan, the inspector of the previous generation, was their boss, it also made their teeth itch with hatred.

Seeing that the other inspectors were eating meat, but they couldn't even drink soup, of course they were not happy.

Chu Xiu quite agrees with Liu Chengli's words. People's hearts are different. You want to be a saint, but you don't consider the interests of your subordinates. If you want them to be saints together, naturally you won't win people's hearts.

In the past, when Chu Kuangge led the Guanzhong Criminal Hall, he relied on his own personality charm. He took the lead in everything, and the rest were willing to follow.

Guan Siyu's leadership of Guanzhong Xingtang relies on power. Even though Guan Siyu is selfless and merciless, and even gives very little salary to the warriors in Guanzhong Xingtang, it is he who can only survive in the cracks. The church has evolved into an armed organization now recognized by the Three Kingdoms.

Moreover, Guan Siyu is not greedy for power. The four chief criminal officers under his command, as well as many inspectors, and the leaders and secret agents of the Criminal Division, each have amazing power, so they are naturally willing to be loyal to Guan Siyu.

As for Chu Xiu, Fang Zhengyuan, his predecessor, his personal charm is naturally not as good as Chu Kuangge, and his ability is not as good as Guan Siyu, but in the end he wants to learn from these two outstanding people in the world. .

At this time, Qin Fang suddenly said: "Right now, there is actually another reason why the morale of our inspectors' hall in Jianzhou is low, and that is that among the small towns around the Jianzhou capital, our inspectors' hall has little power left. , those local martial arts forces don't take us seriously.

It was Mr. Fang who caused this reason. He insisted on looking for death, but it was all right now, and he killed himself too. "

Du Guangzhong frowned and said: "Old Qin, don't talk nonsense. How did Mr. Fang die? The judge in charge personally sent someone down to investigate. The matter has already been determined, and it was just an accident."

At this time, Chu Xiu suddenly became interested, and he said directly to Qin Fang: "Talk about it, it doesn't matter, we are all our own people here. Is there any secret about the death of Fang Zhengyuan, the inspector of the previous generation?"

It stands to reason that the Guanzhong Criminal Hall is the master of the entire Guanzhong land. Although the Guanzhong land is mixed with dragons and snakes and has a strong martial style, no matter how rampant you are, you will still be under the jurisdiction of the Guanzhong Criminal Hall. But now Qin Fang said that he was the inspector of Jianzhou Tangkou no longer has power in the entire Jianzhou Prefecture, which is very strange.

Moreover, the death of Fang Zhengyuan, the previous inspector, was not suspicious. He was killed by the opponent when he was hunting down a murderer of the three-flower gathering state, the "Blood Sky Sword" Han Rang.

Of course, this is definitely not the same as Chu Xiu killing Wu Siping. He just secretly gave him a reasonable way to die. Fang Zhengyuan shot in a small city and was beheaded by the opponent in front of hundreds of warriors. There is no doubt about it. place, but now hearing what Qin Fang said, could there be an inside story?

Qin Fang coughed and said, "Lord Chu, since I have already taken refuge in you, there is no point in keeping these things from you.

Fang Zhengyuan, the inspector of the previous generation, was indeed killed in front of everyone, and there was nothing strange in the eyes of outsiders, but we have all followed Fang Zhengyuan for several years after all, and we know his strength quite well.

Mr. Fang's strength is definitely in the forefront among warriors of the Three Flowers Gathering Realm, and the 'Blood Empty Sword' Han Rang, to put it bluntly, is just a cowardly person who only dares to rob and kill in Guanzhong Some of the small merchants, he dare not move the older ones.

The reason why he became famous is because of the blood-empty sword in his hand, which has the effect of transforming blood energy, and even enough blood energy can make the blood-empty sword advance to become a sixth-rank weapon.

We saw that battle with our own eyes. In the beginning, Master Fang suppressed the opponent with a few moves, but later Master Fang's strength suddenly dropped to the extreme, not even innate realm, and finally he was beheaded by Han Rang with a sword. "

Chu Xiu touched his chin and said: "If this is the case, it is not a suspicious point. There are all kinds of weird things in the rivers and lakes. Maybe it was Han Rang who used some means to sneak attack on Fang Zhengyuan, so he beheaded him. killed."

Qin Fang shook his head and said: "This matter has been full of doubts from the beginning. Han Rang is as timid as a mouse. Before Mr. Fang chased him, he happened to rob and kill a group of merchants outside a small city within the range of Jianzhou Prefecture. According to his personality, he must run away immediately after committing a crime, but this time he took the initiative to show his face in front of us.

And when Han Rang showed his face, we happened to be having a banquet at Jiang's house. After we broke up unhappy, Han Rang seemed to have received the news in advance, and deliberately appeared in front of us to attract Mr. Fang to take action against him. Killed, the doubt is here. "

"Wait, what is the origin of this Jiang family? Why is it related to Fang Zhengyuan again?" Chu Xiu asked with a frown.

Qin Fangdao: "The Jiang family is one of the great powers in the Jianzhou Prefecture, and its history is as long as it was when the Guanzhong Criminal Hall was established.

You also know, my lord, that the Guanzhong region is the center of the trade among the three countries. There are countless caravans coming and going here, but there are some contraband items that are prohibited from being traded in order to prevent them from flowing into the other country.

It's just that although there are explicit orders from the punishment hall, there are still some people who refuse to change after repeated admonitions. The most serious ones are some local martial arts forces in Guanzhong. For example, they buy some contraband from Beiyan and sell them to Dongqi or Western Chu. It's smuggling.

Once this kind of behavior is discovered by the Guanzhong Criminal Hall, it must be strictly investigated. At the beginning, Mr. Fang suspected that the Jiang family was secretly smuggling these prohibited items, so he blamed the Jiang family, but the Jiang family refused to admit it, and we did not find anything. Come.

When Mr. Fang came to the Jiang family for the second time, the people of the Jiang family planned to bribe Mr. Fang, but Mr. Fang refused, and turned against the people of the Jiang family, saying that they would take him back to the criminal hall for trial and so on. They broke up unhappy.

You also know what happened later, Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang was killed, and the investigation of the Jiang family’s smuggling was nothing. As a result, my Jianzhou inspector hall’s power in the martial arts in Jianzhou capital was greatly reduced, and people thought that I was the Jianzhou inspector hall. It's just a lot of thunder and little rain when doing things out of the mouth. "
