"What's wrong?" Zhao Tongpan looked at the note in Prefect Liu's hand in confusion.
"Take a look."
Zhao Tongpan took the note and glanced at it.
"Deng Yushan actually dared to expand the city wall without permission. What did he want to do?"
People in the capital said that the court had never issued an order for Deng Yushan to expand the city wall.
Emperor Tianwu already knew about this matter, and the imperial envoy was on the way.
If Deng Yushan couldn't come up with a good excuse, stripping him of his official position would be the least of his worries, and he might even lose his head.
"Who knows." Governor Liu sighed.
"It will take at least a month for the imperial envoy to reach Fire Extinguishing City. In that month, who knows what will happen."
The imperial court did not issue a notice to change the city's name, nor did it allow Huohuo City to expand its city walls, so he did not dare to continue calling it Qianhuang City.
What on earth stimulated Deng Yushan to do such a bold thing?
He is now extremely curious about the Fire Extinguishing City.
Zhao Tongpan was also very curious. "I will send two spies to investigate the situation first."
"While the city wall is still under construction, there are more people in that area, so it will be easier to gather information."
"No, don't go near the city wall." Governor Liu shook his head.
"Send someone to the villages surrounding Fire Extinguishing City to inquire about the situation."
"There's something fishy going on in Fire Extinguishing City. There must be soldiers guarding the city walls."
"Be careful, don't get discovered."
"yes...."
......
"What should we do? Those people seem to have disappeared out of thin air. Should we still chase them?"
The people from the Killer Hall looked at everyone and regretted taking this job.
He ran deep into the Santong Mountains in one breath and didn't find a single fart.
They originally thought they could meet some immortals, but they found out that someone had arrived earlier than them.
There is no immortal fate or immortal treasure at all, only a mountain top that is as flat as it can be.
The leader of the Menglan City guards looked at the guards behind him who were in such a state of disgrace that he frowned irritably.
"Chase, where to chase?"
They had no idea where the person had gone, and they didn't even see any of the palace guards.
The palace guards didn't see it, but they did meet Qian Yinbao, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
He didn't dare to touch the people from the Ministry of Revenue, and Qian Yinbao was obviously in a worse situation than him.
Who would have thought that there were so many gold and silver mines hidden in the legendary haunted Santong Mountains.
I thought I would see mountains of gold and silver, but...
The people from the Killer Hall choked and looked at the three people whose martial arts skills were obviously higher than theirs.
The leader of the secret guards, Tian Hong, glanced at the people from the Killer Hall.
"Who are you chasing?"
These people suddenly appeared after the three of them followed Qian Yinbao's men to the gold mine.
Judging from what they are wearing, they should be from some organization.
But since the people in this organization were colluding with government officials, he had to doubt their motives.
The people in the Killer Hall looked at Tianhong with murderous eyes and felt a chill in their hearts.
"Chase the fugitive."
Tianhong glanced coldly at the people from the Killer Hall and then glanced at the leader of the guards.
Fugitive?!
This group of people is also hunting down Shen Yong's family?
Could it be that after he left, the emperor sent another team?
“What should I do!!!”
Qian Yinbao slapped his thigh anxiously.
Several gold and silver mines have been emptied. How can he explain it when he returns?
Qian Yinbao's miserable cry attracted everyone's attention.
"Damn Chen Yong, he's going to rebel!!!" Qian Yinbao screamed at the top of his lungs.
He had made careful inquiries and found out that the person who stole the five gold and silver mines was Shen Yong.
As for how Shen Yong managed to transport so much gold and silver, that was not something he should consider at all.
He only knew that he would not be able to report back.
Tian Hong's eyes dimmed slightly, and he opened his mouth and said,
"Could that divine creature that suddenly flew into the sky be Chen Yong?"
He always had this guess in his mind, otherwise how could so much gold and silver disappear in the mountains without anyone noticing.
But he couldn't believe that Shen Yong would have such a great opportunity.
If Chen Yong ascended to become an immortal, who would he still want to capture?
Tianhong's words silenced everyone present.
In fact, everyone in his family had this idea in mind, but no one wanted to admit it.
Why does the Shen family have such a heaven-defying opportunity?
Five gold and silver mines!!!
With so much money, it is enough to raise an army and start a rebellion.
"That's not right." Tian Liu frowned in confusion.
"If the Shen family becomes immortal, then what does he need so much gold and silver for?"
Tian Qi's eyes widened. "Could it be that we have misunderstood? That is not an immortal at all, but a tool for the Shen family to escape?"
The scene of ascending to heaven in broad daylight has never been seen by anyone since ancient times, but it has been described in books, always accompanied by various strange phenomena.
There was nothing strange that day, just a big bird flew away.
Qian Yinbao's eyes rolled around, and he raised his hand to wipe away his tears.
"Yes, what you said is very likely."
"That thing was flying in the northwest direction. Chen Yong fled to the northwest."
Tianhong curled the corners of his lips. This was really hard for him to believe.
What can fly so high? Is it possible for a human to do that?
But it seems that what everyone said is very likely.
"Let's go and chase to the northwest to see what happens."
Tianhong didn't dare to stay in the mountains any longer as he still had a mission to accomplish.
He first looked around to the northwest, and then tried again if he couldn't find it.
It would be a good thing if the Shen family just disappeared like this.
Tianliu and Tianqi looked at each other, rolled their eyes in dissatisfaction, and followed Tianhong.
The people from the Killer Hall stared blankly at Tianhong and the other two as they walked away, and they also wanted to follow them.
They are not interested in catching the fugitive now, but are very interested in the big flying bird.
The guard leader looked around and frowned.
"Let's go back first."
They came to chase the imperial guards to recover their property, and what happened to the Shen family had nothing to do with them.
I've been out for so long and haven't even caught up with anyone. I have to go back and report.
Qian Yinbao felt extremely anxious as he watched a group of people leave one after another.
Everyone can walk, but he can't.
At least, he couldn't really go back empty-handed.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and urge those miners to start mining."
Qian Yinbao yelled at the guards.
