Chapter 250 I can’t wade through muddy water alone! Gu Chan and Ding Sheng looked at each other secretly, and both of them had sly smiles on their faces. While Zheng Shixian was panicking, Gu Chan deliberately said in a cold voice, "Sir Zheng, it seems that you have said a lot of bad things about me behind my back! Why don't you tell me directly in front of the censor? There is no need to lie to me behind my back!" "Your Excellency the Censor, don't listen to his nonsense. I didn't know that it was Lord Renyang who gave him the order. I thought that he took advantage of Lord Renyang's death to steal it, so my words were biased. I hope that Your Excellency the Censor will forgive me." Zheng Shixian hurriedly walked up to the Censor and anxiously explained with his head down. The censor had no intention of blaming him, he just waved at him and signaled him to leave. Zheng Shixian breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped aside, not daring to talk nonsense anymore. The key point is, he saw that Gu Chan looked somewhat smug, and he had no idea what tricks this kid would use to disgust him. If he was really involved in it, he would be in trouble. The Imperial Censor ignored him and stared at Gu Chan and asked, "Where is Ren Yang's body now?" "It's in the wasteland behind the mountain in Jiuyang Village. But now the enemy has occupied the border, so it's difficult to retrieve his body." Gu Chan said calmly. "Okay! Since Renyang is dead and there is no evidence, you said it was a message, and there is a former county magistrate at the border to testify, so I can't blame you. But there is one thing I have to remind you, do you know what a message means?" The censor said in a serious tone.
Gu Chan nodded affirmatively. The censor added, "This time the Emperor asked me to come to Zhongyuan City, not only to confirm the matter of the Tianji Order in your hand, but also to deal with Ding Sheng's dereliction of duty. Since you said you would issue the order, then according to the rules of our Tianji Pavilion, you must go to Kyoto with us." "Your Excellency the Censor, I have made mental preparations and will follow you. However, I would like to bring Ding Sheng and Lord Zheng with me, so that when we arrive in Kyoto, if someone uses the Heavenly Secret Order to embarrass me again, I will have no one to testify for me." Gu Chan said deliberately with a smile on her lips. Zheng Shixian panicked again and said hurriedly, "Master Yushi, don't listen to this brat. The affairs of Zhongyuan City are complicated. Now I have to defend the city to prevent the enemy from attacking on the border. How can I have time to go to Kyoto?" "Why, are you so scared when I ask you to go to Kyoto? Are you hiding something?" the censor said coldly. "Look at what you said, sir. I... I am upright and have no evil thoughts in my heart!" Zheng Shixian said with a dry laugh. At this moment, he looked completely guilty. Obviously, he didn't dare to go to Kyoto at all. Although Gu Chan didn't know why this official didn't dare to go to Kyoto, considering his sinister personality, it would be a lie to say that he didn't offend anyone. Maybe he had offended someone in Kyoto before, so he was so afraid to go there now. The Imperial Censor squinted his eyes at Zheng Shixian, then slapped the table and said, "Okay, it's settled. Tomorrow morning, you, Mr. Zheng, will go to Kyoto with the two of them." "Ah? Your Excellency, this... I..." "You must go. You submitted this memorial to the emperor in an urgent manner over a distance of 800 miles. If you don't take responsibility for handling it, do you want me to go to Kyoto to clean up your mess?" the censor said angrily. Zheng Shixian was still thinking of making excuses to get away with it, but seeing that the censor was angry, he dared not force him anymore and could only respond with a bitter face, "Yes, censor, I will go to Kyoto." "That's it! I will go back to my room to rest first, and we will set off at dawn tomorrow." The censor said this and immediately got up and left. After he left, Zheng Shixian glared at Gu Chan and cursed, "Gu Chan, you are so disgusting. You even made me follow you to Kyoto. Do you still have any shame?" "What? Are you scared? Are there tigers in Kyoto that want to eat people? If you haven't done anything wrong, would you be afraid to go to Kyoto?" Gu Chan said with a grin. Zheng Shixian was so angry that he was furious. Gu Chan laughed, "Master Zheng, go back and rest early! We have to set off at dawn tomorrow. Don't oversleep, or you will keep the censor waiting for a long time, or you will be punished." "You... okay, okay... let's wait and see. Don't think that you can save your life by going to Kyoto. Let me tell you, the Heavenly Secret Order is not so easy to pass on. You will definitely die if you go there this time. I will be waiting in Kyoto to collect your bodies." Zheng Shixian said harshly with a sullen face and walked away angrily. "Hahaha……"
As soon as he left the house, Gu Chan and Ding Sheng burst into laughter in the house. Zheng Shixian listened to the loud laughter coming from behind him and was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He really wanted to cut Gu Chan into pieces. Time passed quickly and it was midnight in the blink of an eye. Just as Gu Chan and Ding Sheng were sleeping soundly in the room in the west courtyard of the county government office, the men sent by Shen Sanfeng finally rushed to the Zhongyuan Medical Clinic in the refugee area overnight. At this time, Ouyang Wan'er and others were still awake and waiting for news. As soon as the men entered the hall, everyone surrounded them. Ouyang Wan'er asked anxiously, "What happened?" "We have heard the news that tomorrow morning, Manager Gu, Ding Sheng, and Zheng Shixian will follow the Censor to Kyoto. As for what they are going to do in Kyoto, no one knows." said the subordinate. Everyone was stunned and had no idea what was going on. Among all the people present, only Wei Xing and Ma Zheng knew about the Tianji Order, so at this moment they seemed relatively calm, and they also understood in their hearts what Gu Chan's going to Kyoto meant. But the two of them were smart and didn't say anything. Wei Xing stepped forward and said to his men, "Brother, thank you for coming to pass on the news. We all know about it. You should go back and rest early!" "The old man asked me to remind you not to act rashly and just wait for news." The subordinate added, then said goodbye to everyone and left. Ouyang Wan'er was extremely anxious. Zhang Wanshan had already started crying out of anxiety. Wei Xing comforted him at the right time, "Don't be so anxious. Gu Chan is young, so let him go to Kyoto to gain more experience. If he is lucky enough this time, I am afraid we will have to follow him to rise to prominence when he comes back, so everyone should wish him the best and don't worry about him." "Do you know something and deliberately hide it from us?" Ouyang Wan'er asked. As soon as she said this, everyone looked up at Wei Xing. Wei Xing smiled faintly and said, "The less you know, the better. That's it! Everyone go to sleep and do what you need to do tomorrow. Don't miss out on making money." "Brother Xing is right. I'm going to sleep too." Ma Zheng followed suit. Then the two of them went upstairs to sleep one after another. Only Ouyang Wan'er and others were left standing in the lobby, looking at each other in bewilderment. (End of this chapter)
