Don't Interrupt My Immortal Cultivation

Ren Qingshan really didn't want to talk to this idiot. The only reason he was the First Commander was because of his loyalty and excellent combat skills. Other than that, his emotional intelligence, strategic vision, and political skills were all negative values. If he were put alone in the imperial court, he would probably be destroyed within a month.

He had intended to ignore him, but he couldn't stand the idiot's smug face and couldn't help but say, "That's impossible. Do you think they're transporting a few dollars worth of garbage? It's 33 tons of gold! The entire process is regulated! If they dared to take the small train, they would have left in Longzhou. Why did they cross our border at night and go to the Mangchangshan Empire Railway Station? That would be pointless."

Dong Qianwang's face immediately turned red, and blue veins bulged on his forehead as he argued, "How do you know they're not playing games? Pretending to go to the Empire Railway Station to confuse the enemy, but actually secretly transferring to the small train? You, who have never won a battle against me, can't see through the enemy's strategy. What qualifications do you have to talk big here?"

Now it was Ren Qingshan's turn to turn red and his neck to thicken. "Damn you, Dong Manzi, I've been patient with you for too long!"

Dong Qianwang looked at him sideways. "What? Do you want to fight? If I don't beat you into a pig's head today if we fight, my name isn't Dong."

"Come on, let me show you my newly learned Xu Family's Iron Fist!"

Dong Qianwang spat, "Stop bragging. Are you even worthy of Xu Zong?" He tore off his shirt, revealing his muscular body. "Let me show you the real thing. One punch and you'll be dead."

"Okay, I'll see..."

"You all shut up!"

Sheng Huaixuan finally spoke. The two of them glared at each other like roosters and then backed away.

Sheng Huaixuan didn't have time to pay attention to them. He asked the Chief Secretary Cheng Hexin and the Interior Minister Mei Xingan who had just arrived, "You said that the director of the county government, who is backed by the highest council, Yu Zhongxian, directly launched a rebellion at the county council meeting?"

Cheng Hexin nodded. "Yes, they are connected. Yu Zhongxian directly sent five undercover inspectors to assist, and even gave them the authorization. The director of the county government, Li Tupu, united with the local Supervisory Bureau, Public Security Bureau, Water Conservancy Bureau, and Agricultural Bureau to openly rebel at the meeting, claiming to convict Lin Wen."

"When did you hear about this?"

Interior Minister Mei Xingan shook his head, coughed, and said, "It happened three days ago. We received the news a day later and spent some time verifying and investigating."

Sheng Huaixuan thought for a moment. "Li Yuchen and Lei Renjie hadn't arrived yet at that time, right?"

Cheng Hexin nodded.

Sheng Huaixuan frowned. "How did Lin Wen handle it? I remember you reported that he didn't immediately start organizing the guards."

Cheng Hexin said with some confusion, "According to the information we collected later, it was said that Lin Wen alone repelled the siege of more than twenty people, and then called the guard officer Dashan to bring imperial soldiers to suppress the situation."

Sheng Huaixuan looked at him in surprise. "Did Lin Wen practice?"Cheng Hexin shook his head. "I've checked, there's no similar intelligence. And the five Inspectorate Guards have all undergone special training beyond the third level. They're strong soldiers, even among the special forces. Even the top students of the Empire's Martial Arts Academy would have a hard time defeating them one-on-one, let alone five-on-one."

Sheng Huaixuan thought for a moment. "It's possible that he had some training and tricks up his sleeve, and he managed to hold off the rebellion until they arrived at Fangdashan. The officials present were more or less implicated and afraid of retaliation, so they flattered Lin Wen. I know them, they've always been like this."

Cheng Hexin hurriedly agreed. "That's probably it."

With a loud bang, Sheng Huaixuan threw something heavily onto the ground, startling the two commanders behind him and the surrounding guards.

"How vicious. Yu Zhongxian really doesn't put me, the overall governor of East Qin Prefecture, in his eyes."

Sheng Huaixuan said coldly.

"He directly dispatched the Inspectorate Guards to incite local officials to rebel, and even has the authority to do so. He wants to kill Lin Wen directly, to make sure he can never be reincarnated, and then take a big bite out of me!"

The Minister of Internal Affairs, Mei Xingan, always looked like he was half-asleep. He coughed and said, "Xiao Sheng, what do you want to do?"

Sheng Huaixuan sneered. "Have I been away from the martial world for too long, or have I lost my ability to wield a sword?"

Raising his voice, he said, "Dong Qianwang, listen up! Change the plan. Today, not only do we seize their goods, we also take their people! Everyone, arrest them all and throw them into the dungeon! Wait for those dogs from our headquarters to come and ask for them!"

Dong Qianwang's face twisted, but he knew he couldn't argue with the governor at this time, so he reluctantly passed on the order.

But Sheng Huaixuan wasn't finished. "Ren Qingshan, listen up!"

Ren Qingshan stepped forward. "Yes!"

"You lead a team to the Longmo Manor in Zhongzhou, and raid Yu Zhongxian's estate! Burn down the villa! Bring all the people back to me!"

Ren Qingshan didn't hesitate and said loudly, "Yes, Governor!" before turning around and running out.

Things were getting out of hand!

Cheng Hexin was sweating profusely and kept making eye contact with Mei Xingan, but the old man seemed to be asleep, coughing and dozing off.

No one dared to advise the enraged governor, and even approaching him brought immense pressure. Fortunately, not long after, the convoy carrying the gold appeared in view.

Support us at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

It was a long caravan, with two armored transport trucks in the center, surrounded by more than thirty military vehicles and a thousand Imperial soldiers as guards, fully armed and in formation.

But when they were stopped by 1,600 Green Army soldiers in front and 2,000 Green Army soldiers behind, and saw thousands of guns appearing on both sides of the mountain cliff, the convoy commander knew it was over. He had no choice but to wave his hand and order his guards to lay down their weapons.

Dong Qianwang walked over and said sympathetically, "A wise choice. You know I would have shot you if you resisted."

The convoy commander sighed heavily. "We're all Imperial soldiers, why bother?"The deputy commander was indignant: "You Qing Army blatantly robbed the Empire Headquarters of its gold! When the Empire finds out, you won't get away with it!"

Dong Qianwang punched the fool and knocked him out. He blew on his fist and said, "Why bother? We're all prisoners. Why be so arrogant?" He looked at him with pity and said, "Besides, the matters above are dealt with by those above. We, the people below, don't need to worry about it."

He waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

The whole process went smoothly. General Sheng's mood seemed to have improved. On the way back, he spoke calmly with the Minister of Internal Affairs, Mei Xingan, about what to do next.

Although Mei Xingan looked like a confused old man, his words were like sharp swords, piercing and powerful. They were like invisible air, leaving people powerless.

"The Longzhou Guards trespassed into the territory of East Qin Prefecture without any notice."

"That's right, Xiaosheng. They couldn't possibly notify anyone."

"We were conducting exercises in Xiaohan Mountain. They intruded and disrupted the exercises. It's normal for conflicts to arise and for both sides to be detained."

"I see. I've released the exercise documents and notices a month ago."

"We didn't know it was gold inside. The Longzhou Guards didn't fulfill their obligation to inform us. Maybe they did, but I didn't hear it."

"Because they were treated as ordinary items, it's normal for them to be damaged during transportation."

Under his series of brilliant maneuvers, the crazy incident gradually became less crazy-sounding.

Less crazy-sounding incidents became slightly excessive but acceptable.

Once they were slightly excessive, if you accepted them, I would apologize and that would be the end of it.

"I've already apologized. What more do you want?"

And so, the big matter became small, and the small matter disappeared. A world-shattering event, in the mouth of Old Mei, became as insignificant as a mosquito bite.

Halfway through, Cheng Hexin's heart rate returned to normal. He secretly admired the legendary "Sea-Setting Needle" of the Governor's Office.

It was truly a well-deserved reputation.
