Chapter 749: The State Religion Did It
After being allowed to leave, Gu Hang said goodbye to Zhang Yulin politely and immediately left Lord Gao's mansion.
He went out, left the scene blocked by the imperial guards, and stood still on the side of the road.
Just one and a half minutes later, a hovercraft landed in front of him, the side door opened, and a messenger inside said to him:
"Hello, Governor Gu. The Prime Minister is waiting for you."
As expected.
Gu Hang stepped into the car.
In the car, the messenger did not talk to Gu Hang, so Gu Hang sat quietly in the back and closed his eyes to rest.
The hovercraft shuttled through the huge palace, and after more than an hour, it finally arrived at a platform outside a high tower.
After parking the car, Gu Hang entered Qi Bodu's office under the guidance of the messenger.
It was called an office, but it looked more like a palace built on top of a tall building. A long red carpet with gold edges stretched from the door to the steps. As the steps went up, the Prime Minister sat on a throne inlaid with gold and jade.
There were many lights in the hall, but the special architectural structure and lighting arrangement revealed a clear boundary between light and dark. The prime minister's position was on the highest and brightest steps in the room, and Gu Hang walked forward along the long carpet, as if he was gradually approaching the light.
This structure gives people a strong psychological hint.
Gu Hang would naturally not be affected by this, but at this moment, he did not pretend to be anything but maintained a relatively low-key attitude.
He observed that the trademark kind expression on Qi Bodu's face was gone, and instead, it looked serious and a little gloomy.
Qi Bodu is indeed in a bad mood now.
The only thing he knew about what happened today was that after Gu Hang met with the great sage Kaul who suddenly visited Holy Terra, he arranged for someone to keep an eye on Yu Jinwen. Then, today Gu Hang went there in person. Then, the imperial guards blocked the place.
He really had no idea what was going on.
He hated the feeling of being out of control, as it reminded him of the feeling he had thirty or forty years ago when the Sun Lord was still around.
Whenever this happened, he would get angry.
Today is quite similar.
But even though he was angry, he would not lose control of his facial expressions.
On the contrary, the face he had now was exactly what he wanted to express deliberately.
He needed to let Gu Hang know clearly the seriousness of the matter.
When Gu Hang walked to the bottom of the stairs and bowed, Qi Bodu slowly spoke: "What happened today? Do you have anything to tell me?"
Gu Hang raised his head, his face serious: "It's a big deal, it concerns the entire empire, it concerns your authority, Prime Minister!"
First, he raises his voice and talks about things as if you are in great trouble... Qi Bodu has seen a lot of this in his more than 100 years of political career.
As his prestige grew, not many people dared to talk to him in this way. Occasionally, I heard him say this and found it a little funny.
Even to the point of being angry.
If it were someone else, he would have asked the guards to drag the man away long ago.
Isn’t this Gu Hang?
You have to give him a little face.
He opened his mouth, wanting to sneer.
But Gu Hang's next words were one step faster than his.
He was so shocked that he almost jumped out of his seat:
"Yu Jinwen has been bewitched and controlled by the aliens. It's hard to say how much of his actions in Holy Terra before this were at the request of the aliens. There is also a high probability that something went wrong with Yasdai. In addition, apart from the influence of the aliens, Yasdai is likely to have come together with the state religion. The unplanned assassination attempt on me two years ago was carried out privately by Yasdai under the secret instructions of the state religion."
After hearing this, Qi Bodu barely managed to suppress his anger, but he couldn't help but lean forward and urged Gu Hang: "Tell me more details!"
Gu Hang was laughing in his heart, half of the task was accomplished.
Qi Bo Du did not ask why Gu Hang dared to bring his CIA agents, whose identities were no different from those of civilians in Holy Terra, to attack the High Lord's representative. The Imperial Guards still have a big head and can wear any hat. At the same time, Qi Bo Du was completely distracted by what Gu Hang mentioned. Now all he could think about was that the High Lord he helped to rise up actually had such a serious thing behind his back.
This is much more terrifying than a simple emergency that Qi Bodu is not aware of.
This is a serious betrayal!
Although he was laughing in his heart, Gu Hang didn't show it on his face, and remained serious and solemn. He recounted in detail what happened in Yu Jinwen's mansion.
He was vague about the parts about how to act, how to attack, and how to identify lurkers and spies.
Qi Bodu didn't care either.
The key points of Gu Hang are the information obtained during the subsequent interrogation.
In fact, what Gu Hang got out of the interrogation could not clearly indicate whether the chairman of the Star Devouring Universe, Yasdai, was corrupted by the Dark Eldar.
Strictly speaking, it is very likely that only Yu Jinwen himself was corrupted, and Chairman Yasdai was also a victim.
But that didn't stop Gu Hang from sparing no effort to throw dirty water on Yasdai's head.
Gu Hang was not afraid even if Qi Bodu went to the imperial guards to verify this.
Something has happened to Yu Jinwen, and everyone in the Imperial Guard feels that it is so serious and shameful. So as the person primarily responsible for his corruption, High Lord Yasdai, who sent out this problematic representative, must take responsibility, regardless of whether he himself has a problem or not.
In fact, it is possible that the Imperial Guards will personally solve this problem this time.
Therefore, Gu Hang did not feel any psychological pressure when he said this.
As for the words related to the state religion, Gu Hang found them out during the investigation, but he did not tell them to the imperial guards.
It makes sense not to tell the Imperial Guards. The state religion is not an external enemy. Their collusion with Yu Jinwen and Yasdai is an internal struggle within the imperial political situation. The Imperial Guards don't care. They won't care even if you tell them. They can figure it out themselves later.
But Qi Bodu is different. Compared to being corrupted by aliens, which is already a very bad thing, he cares more about the collusion between Asdai and the state religion.
Two years ago, there was an assassination order sent to the Assassin's Court to deal with Gu Hang. He knew about it and arranged for someone to investigate, but they didn't find out which party did it. The follow-up investigation has actually been going on, but in Qi Bodu's mind, this matter is not critical and has a low priority. He didn't pay much attention to it. When his subordinates investigated, there was no movement or urging, so naturally they neglected it or even stopped it.
Everyone is very busy.
But I didn't expect that this matter was handled by Yas, and the state religion was involved!
This made Qi Bodu extremely angry!
My dog is working for outsiders?
