Red Mansion: Incense and God Road, starting from the City God of Shenjing

Chapter 24: The City God's Stratagem
"Hahaha, Shui Rong, there really are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Prince Beijing's mansion!"

"Among the guards in the mansion alone, there are two martial arts innates and one Xuanmen refining god!"

"You know exactly why I came here today. Anyone in Prince Beijing's Mansion dares to fight me?"

Jia Cong achieved his goal and laughed heartily, as if he was crazy.

He stepped on the reputation of Prince Beijing's Mansion and exerted his pressure all over the capital.

The "Shinto Seal" in his hand was suspended one foot in the air, and fifty divine powers were infused into it.

The mighty divine power is flowing, but it is held back!
It was just as powerful as the one seal that killed Zhao Qi just now.

Seeing this, Shui Rong's face became even gloomier.

His ten fingers dug into Jia Cong's flesh, and he wished he could skin him alive and grind his bones in public.

But no one knew how many times Jia Cong could use that shocking seal just now.

I don’t even know if the next seal will come directly at me.

"Go home!"

"Close the door!"

"No outside visitors!"

He squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

The restrained demeanor maintained over the years was almost broken in one day.

Shui Rong turned around and returned to the palace with a few guards. The gate of the palace was closed.

No one even came out to clean the bloodstains on the door.

To outsiders, it seemed as if Prince Beijing's Mansion had surrendered.

"Hahaha, Prince Beijing's Mansion is nothing special!"

"Return the things, Jia Cong takes his leave!"

Once again, he used his divine power to send a message to the capital, announcing the outcome of the conflict.

Jia Cong bowed gently, under the gazes of many people in the dark.

Turned into a sword light and left!
Today, the nine-year-old has cultivated his spirit and overwhelmed Prince Beijing’s Palace.

It is destined to become a legendary story in Shenjing City in a very short time!

……

"Has Prince Beijing's Palace surrendered so easily?"

"wrong!"

"It's not as simple as it seems. What a great Jia Cong, what a great Purple Robe Earl!"

"He is so young but so smart that he is almost a demon."

"It seems like the means are ruthless and rooting out the problem, but in fact every step is crossing the bottom line of all parties."

"How should the royal family view the fact that the princes of the opposite sex are secretly cultivating their power?"

A fight between powerful people ended here.

But the disturbance it caused was far more than that.

In a carriage on the street.

An old man with white hair and beard, a dignified temperament, and obviously in a high position, muttered to himself.

"So that's how it is, so that's how it is, the entire Shenjing has been deceived by Shui Rong."

"Wang Ziteng's death was not unjust. If he hadn't died today, he would probably not have much time left."

"Everything is linked together. The young are to be feared. It is true that the young are to be feared."

"But you are still young. Since ancient times, emperors have always used their subjects as their weapons. How can they use the royal family as their weapons?"

"It seems smart, but in fact..."

As he spoke, the old man shook his head softly.

Most of my guard against Jia Cong was gone in an instant.

He said lightly to the outside of the carriage.

"The show is over, let's go home!"

……

A dark corner of Beijing Wangfu Street Market

"Your Majesty, this... Master Jia is still young, and what he did was..."

Xia Shouzhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

From the beginning, he acted indifferently outside the Wang family's door, made mistakes decisively, and killed quickly!
Then there was the deliberate high-profile behavior outside Prince Beijing's Palace, even using supernatural powers to announce it to the Divine Capital.

They are all smart people, in Xia Shouzhong's opinion.

Jia Cong's wishful thinking could be heard eight hundred miles away.

He was the first person in Daqian to use the emperor as a knife and kill someone with him.

"Hahaha, young people are just like that, it's harmless."

The smile on Emperor Shunde's face was enough to explain his mood at the moment.

"Uncle Zi Yi is still young, so it's rare that he can come up with such a plan."

"My dear, do you think I would bother with a young boy?"

Waving his hand indifferently, Emperor Shunde took a deep look at the blood-stained Beijing Palace. "Go back."

"It's not a wasted trip to leave the palace today."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

……

Rongguofu

The sword light fell, revealing an elegant figure.

"Foolish people use cruel means to shock others; smart people deliberately show their clumsiness to paralyze others."

"After today, the people in the cabinet and Emperor Shunde will no longer be wary of me."

"Plus, with Wang Ziteng's death, the position of the commander of the Beijing camp is vacant, and everyone's attention will be diverted."

"This is the opportunity!"

Jia Cong kept reviewing today's events in his mind.

In the words of a previous life.

All the self-proclaimed smart people in Shenjing City thought that Jia Cong was on the third floor and was overlooking the second floor.

Little did they know, this wave.

Jia Cong is in the atmosphere!
To elevate Shintoism, only the most devout believers can offer incense.

If there is any coercion or lack of faith, it cannot be achieved.

This matter is difficult, but it is also not difficult.

Just like Confucian students taking the imperial examinations and entering the court.

In general, the progress of cultivating the great righteousness is promoted by the three things of "establishing virtue, establishing merit, and establishing words".

There are shortcuts to Shinto practice.

It's just that you need to be careful in finding the right balance.

……

"I almost forgot one more thing!"

"There has to be a beginning and an end."

Just as he was about to return to Lixiangyuan, Jia Cong chuckled.

Going around the Rongguo Mansion Garden, we headed towards Fengjie's Courtyard behind the central courtyard.

Before entering the courtyard, I saw a ghost soldier commander already waiting respectfully in the corner.

"I see you, my lord!"

"More than 70 boxes of gold, silver, jewelry and books were looted from Wang's house."

"I followed your instructions and ordered you to hire a carriage to deliver the gold and silver items to Lixiangyuan with great fanfare."

"All the remaining books and treasures related to cultivation should be hidden away in secret and guarded by someone. They will be transported to the City God's Mansion after dark!"

Seeing Jia Cong coming, the leader of the ghost soldiers stepped forward to report.

"Well done. Where's the thing I asked you to pay special attention to? Did you find anything?"

……

"Your Excellency, I found a small box in the secret compartment of Wang Ziteng's study."

"The box contains correspondence between Wang Ziteng and officials from various parties."

"Some of the letters were written to the former governor of Yingtian Prefecture. The words are vague and I cannot tell the difference. Please make the decision, sir."

The leader of the ghost soldiers said this, taking out a few letters and handing them over respectfully.

"A letter to the former governor of Yingtian Prefecture, Jinling?"

Jia Cong took the letter and frowned slightly.

Combining what I know in my mind, a vague line gradually becomes clear.

"Strange, such letters must have been burned after reading, why did Wang Ziteng keep them until now?"

After mumbling a few words, Jia Cong suddenly thought of something.

"I ask you, are these letters seemingly hidden, but actually in a mechanism that is extremely easy to find?"

"Your Excellency is wise!"

After getting a positive answer, Jia Cong smacked his lips slightly.

"No wonder Shui Rong trusts Wang Ziteng so much. The reason is that he pretended to accidentally hand over his handle to the other party."

"With such a plan, it's no wonder that he was able to trick the Jia family into giving him the post of governor of the Beijing camp..."

"It also reminds me not to underestimate people in the world."

After reading the letter again, Jia Cong had an idea in his mind.

"You should leave first. The gold and silver are not important, but the precious books related to the Wang family's cultivation must not be lost!"

"I'll go to the City God's Mansion to take inventory tomorrow when I have time!"

"I obey my orders!"
