Chapter 464 The Truth [Please give me a monthly ticket! ]
When Liang Yue rushed to the front hall, he saw Chen Ju there with him.
As a young man from the Chen family's side branch, Chen Ju was not usually in the eyes of Chen Daoguan. He only knew that this person was recently sent to Yunlu City to manage the business. He usually sent him to get some information from the Yihuo Sect casually, and he didn't care whether there was any danger.
I came to the Criminal Justice Department today and found out that Chen Ju and Liang Yue had such a close relationship.
When Liang Yue arrived, Chen Ju was telling the story, "Liang Yue and I definitely met when we were in the humble and met again at the top. When we were both in Longyuan Yudu Guard, I was a regular guard and he was a junior guard... Hey, Uncle Eight, do you know what childhood friends are?"
Seeing someone coming in, Chen Ju stopped talking immediately, turned around and said with a smile: "He's here."
Chen Daoguan stood up to greet him with a serious expression, and it was obvious that he really showed enough respect to Liang Yue.
Liang Yue also bowed slightly, "If the Lord God wants to see me, why bother to send a message? Why bother to come here in person?"
Chen Daoguan shook his head. "I came here specially to express my gratitude. I have already asked. If Liang Xianguan had not discovered it in time, the Nanzhou military town would have been broken without a doubt, and I am afraid I would have been doomed. Even if I am still guilty now, the most I can do is to be dismissed. Liang Xianguan's kindness to me this time is no less than saving my life."
"General, you are too kind." Liang Yue said quickly, "As a fellow official of the Yin Kingdom, we naturally have to do our part when we discover this matter. It is the credit of the Nanzhou Military Town that we fought against the Yihuo Cult rebels head-on."
"You don't have to be so polite to me. Although I am much older than you, if you don't mind, we can call each other brothers." Chen Daoguan said, "I will call you Brother Liang. If you need me or need the Chen family in the future, just let me know."
"No, Eighth Uncle..." Chen Ju was stunned.
You didn't mention this happening just now?
For a moment, he was silently calculating in his mind, Liang Yue and his eighth uncle are brothers, so what should he call him?
Forget it.
Lao Hu and I are still brothers.
People of the world, why do you care so much?
"General, you are too polite." Liang Yue also replied seriously, "I am just doing what I should do, just like General God guarding Nanzhou and protecting an area. I will not think that I have done anything good for the people of Nanzhou. It is just my duty as an official and a general."
"Alas." Chen Daoguan sat down again and sighed, "Not only do I not dare to admit that I have done anything good, I feel guilty towards the people of Nanzhou."
Liang Yue then asked, "Is there a spy inside the Nanzhou Army? Have you found out?"
"The situation has been investigated, so I didn't come here immediately." Chen Daoguan said, "The deputy commander of the Fire Head Battalion, Deng Yongsen, is a rebel from the Righteous Fire Sect. He bribed several managers of the granary with a large sum of money and got evidence against them, hoping that they would relax the inspection that day. Those managers of the granary were timid and fled the barracks directly and their whereabouts are unknown."
"Deng Yongsen also placed several of his trusted aides in charge of the warehouse. During the entire process, no one from the Fire Head Battalion and the Southern State Army noticed anything was wrong, which led to today's disaster. The situation has developed to this point, and it is all my fault for not governing the army strictly and lax management."
Liang Yue didn't say anything because he felt the same way.
We cannot assume that this person has done nothing wrong just because he has a good attitude towards admitting his guilt.
It is estimated that the phenomena of buying official positions, placing confidants in the military towns of Nanzhou, and buying off soldiers are very serious, which is why several managers ran away and were replaced by new ones, but no one paid attention to this matter.
The commander of the Fire Camp was only thinking about leaving the army soon, and had no intention of staying up late to work.
This gave the Yihuo Sect the opportunity to seize the opportunity.
only……
"Since those granary managers escaped, how did the Righteous Fire Cult find them?" Liang Yue frowned and pondered for a moment, "If they hadn't died outside Yunlu City, I wouldn't have had the chance to connect this matter with the Nanzhou Army."
"I interrogated Deng Yongsen, and he didn't know the whereabouts of those people." Chen Daoguan replied, "It was him those people were hiding from."
"Oh?" Liang Yue's eyes turned, as if thinking about something. ...
Liang Yue did not show any signs of being proud of his achievements throughout the whole process, and Chen Daoguan did not say much. He just emphasized again when he left that if there was anything, they could come to him. Although he might not be able to do much, he would definitely try his best.
It can be seen that this general is indeed an honest person, apart from anything else.
After he completes the aftermath work this time, he will probably not stay in Nanzhou anymore, and he will probably not have the opportunity to guard a place again in the future. He will most likely be recalled to Longyuan City, receive some punishment, and stay at home.
In fact, it also fulfilled his long-cherished wish of returning to the capital in disguise.
The result was achieved, but the process was a little off. He was not promoted back to the capital, but was dismissed.
With Chen Daoguan's retreat, the Chen family had no one in the first three rows of the court. There was already a huge gap between them and the other three great families. The families of some ordinary important officials were only inferior to them in terms of foundation.
But no matter how much the Chen family declined, at least he was still alive.
He knew very well that if Liang Yue had not come to his aid in time, he would not be a match for the Righteous Fire Sect Leader. Even if he could escape, he would probably die if he lost the military town and returned to the Divine Capital.
So it is not an exaggeration to say that Liang Yue saved his life.
He said that he and Liang Yue would be brothers in the future, and he was absolutely sincere about it.
The little information he got when talking to him just now made Liang Yue ponder for a long time.
He said that the Yihuo Cult did not know the whereabouts of those deserters, and Liang Yue had been puzzled by this before. If the Yihuo Cult killed people, not to mention destroying the bodies, they could even set a fire so that people could not see the identities of these people.
Just leaving the body exposed outside the city?
Afraid that people won’t find out.
If someone with a keen eye had just investigated, wouldn't they have known that they were from the army? If they had investigated faster, their conspiracy would have been thwarted without waiting until the night of the incident.
and many more……
Liang Yue seemed to have suddenly thought of something. Ever since he came to Yunlu City, there seemed to be a faint line guiding him all the way to today.
He turned around and went to the torture room, calling out Zou Shiyi who was busy.
"Mr. Zou, I have something I want to ask you for help with." Liang Yue called him to a deserted place and said.
"If Lord Liang has any orders, just give them. Why go to so much trouble?" Zou Shiyi said with a smile.
His attitude towards Liang Yue is similar to that of others. From suspicion in the beginning, to recognition, and then to admiration, the entire path of change is clearly visible.
Then Liang Yue suddenly said, "I want to see Zhao Faxian."
"Hmm?" Zou Shiyi frowned slightly, as if he was stunned for a moment, "Why do you say that, Lord Liang?"
Liang Yue ignored his expression and emphasized it seriously, saying, "I want to see Zhao Faxian!"
