Chi Qiaoyu was about to cry: "What do you say?"

Zhao Lin said, "How about this? Sir Xiong writes me a letter about his secret dealings with Bei Di and lets me take it with me. I'll feel relieved then."

"Impossible!" Xiong Hui shouted immediately.

"Send the order, attack the city."

Zhao Lin was concise and to the point.

"Don't spread it, don't spread it. Write it, Mr. Xiong, write it." Chi Qiaoyu advised.

Isn’t it just writing a letter to reassure Zhao Lin? That would be great.

Otherwise, if he were to attack the city, everyone present would die.

Xiong Hui shouted, "You can't write it. If he attacks the city, at most he'll kill a few of us, but if he writes that letter, the entire Xiong family will suffer. Zhao Lin, if you have the guts, attack the city and see how the emperor will deal with you."

Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Send an order. Jiangbei Governor Xiong Hui is colluding with the Northern Di and plotting rebellion. I have discovered this and am taking him down. The Qingzhou army is entering the city to pacify the people. Anyone who dares to stop them will be an accomplice."

"Xiong Hui was corrupt and perverted the law, extorting money from the people and embezzling disaster relief funds."

"Many of the rebel bandits in the two provinces were instigated by Xiong Hui, using this as an excuse to demand money and food from the imperial court."

"By the way, a lot of the horses I bought some time ago were stolen. It was Xiong Hui who did it."

Zhao Lin framed Xiong Hui.

It was a blatant frame-up, not concealed at all.

Everyone looked at each other.

They finally understood why Feng Siyuan, who had been operating in Jiujiang Province for so many years, fell into Zhao Lin's hands.

This guy doesn't play by the rules.

He will convict you first and then investigate. Who can stand that?

"Bring me pen and paper. I will write this to Your Majesty immediately. Please make your decision."

Zhao Lin added, "From now on, I will temporarily serve as the Governor-General until the court appoints a new Governor-General."

Everyone in the banquet hall was numb.

They don’t know what to say?

Saying Zhao Lin is too arrogant? It was Xiong Hui who was arrogant first.

Saying that Zhao Lin attempted to rebel? People said that Xiong Hui colluded with the Northern Di and attempted to rebel, and they were making a legitimate judgment.

In short, Zhao Lin was the first to gain the upper hand.

As for whether the emperor and the bigwigs in the court believe it or not, we will talk about it later.

As Zhao Lin's order was passed down, news soon came: the Qingzhou army entered the city.

They loudly announced the news of Xiong Hui's rebellion, took over the Liangzhou city, and controlled the Liangzhou prefectural government office, the Beiyuan provincial governor's office, and the governor's office.

Sudi came in fully armored and said, "General, we have taken control of Liangzhou."

Zhao Lin nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, General Su."

Sudi was very excited: "Should we kill Xiong Hui and hang his head for public display?"

Chi Qiaoyu looked numb.

He finally realized that from Zhao Lin down, the Qingzhou army was no good.

Otherwise, why would General Su want to hang Xiong Hui's head for public display as soon as he opened his mouth?

Zhao Lin said, "Governor Xiong is an important official of the imperial court. How can you insult him?"

Xiong Hui had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zhao Lin say, "However, the news that Governor Xiong committed suicide out of fear of punishment and killed his entire family before committing suicide must be spread so that everyone knows that we have a legitimate reason for our actions."

"Master Zhao," Chi Qiaoyu couldn't help but say, "You're just deceiving yourself. Once the court investigates, they'll definitely uncover the truth. How will you cope then?"

The so-called claim that Xiong Hui colluded with the Northern Di and attempted to rebel was so unbelievable that no one would believe it without even investigating.

This is nothing more than a farce.

Chi Qiaoyu really couldn't figure out how Zhao Lin would explain it then.

Zhao Lin said: "You should worry about yourself, not me."

Chi Qiaoyu's face froze.

Only then did he remember that whether he could survive was decided by the young man in front of him.

Chi Qiaoyu asked, "I wonder how you can let me go?"

"You have discovered evidence of Xiong Hui's treason and invited me to come and discuss how to deal with him." Zhao Lin said.

Chi Qiaoyu's expression froze.

Zhao Lin was waiting for him here.

If you don't agree, you must be Xiong Hui's accomplice.

If you agree, you will be tied to Zhao Lin's pirate ship.

No matter which one, there will be no good ending.

Chi Qiaoyu smiled bitterly: "Master Zhao, I never get involved in these matters. Can you pretend I was never here?"

Zhao Lin said: "What do you think?"

Chi Qiaoyu sighed, "It would be great if the Governor's Office wasn't in Liangzhou."

If he wasn't in Liangzhou, he wouldn't get involved, and it wouldn't matter to him who lived or died.

Xiong Hui said in a hoarse voice: "Zhao Lin, aren't you afraid of revenge from my Xiong family?"

Zhao Lin said calmly, "The world is in chaos right now, with rebels rising up everywhere and bandits everywhere. Who knows which gang has entered the Xiong family?"

hiss……

Chi Qiaoyu took a breath of cold air.

ruthless!

It’s so fucking cruel!

Is this still a young man who just turned eighteen?

The person just had a little conflict with him, but not only did he kill him, he also wiped out his entire family.

The entire Xiong family is such a big family, how dare he!

Xiong Hui's eyes were red: "You dare?"

"Why not?" Zhao Lin sneered, "I'm not one of those wimps who thinks a higher-ranking official can crush someone to death. Whoever dares to put pressure on me, I'll kill him."

At this moment, Xiong Hui felt extremely regretful.

He originally wanted to control Zhao Lin, but he didn't expect Zhao Lin's reaction to be so big. Not only did he bring troops here, but he also wanted to kill him.

Xiong Hui took a deep breath and said, "Even if you kill me, you won't be able to clean up the mess. I admit you win, and I'm willing to write down the evidence of Tong Di's guilt."

"Wouldn't it be better if this was done earlier?"

Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Bring me some pen and ink."

Someone immediately brought pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Zhao Lin said, "I speak, you write. Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor of Beidi, I, Xiong Hui, have persuaded my family to be your accomplice. As a condition, after you conquer the Central Plains, you will give me the position of Prime Minister..."
