Chapter 433 Please Imperial Decree

At this moment, Guo Yaoshi actually wanted to show his loyalty, which was indeed beyond Jiang Xiaobai's expectation.

Ever since he heard this person's name, all Jiang Xiaobai could think of was the tragedy of the Jingkang Rebellion, and everything he did was to anger Guo Yaoshi so that he could give himself an excuse to kill him.

It's just that Guo Yaoshi's work is impeccable, and Jiang Xiaobai still can't find a chance to do it.

The special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin died today, but Jiang Xiaobai didn't mind taking care of Guo Yaoshi as well.

Unexpectedly, he didn't refute, didn't get angry, but knelt on the ground to toast!

These words seem inappropriate, shouldn't we discuss how to deal with this matter?
Although Jiang Xiaobai is the deputy imperial envoy in name, his rank is lower than that of Guo Yaoshi, and he is only a civil servant. Shouldn't he seek Guo Yaoshi's opinion on how to deal with Wanyan Zongwang's revenge?
At the same time, Jiang Xiaobai also heard some hidden content in Guo Yaoshi's words. He didn't address the imperial envoy, nor did he address the deputy envoy. He even looked past Jiang Xiaobai and looked at the wooden door behind him.

Loyalty, isn't it for me?

Jiang Xiaobai's heart moved, and he asked, "Master Guo, who do you want to pledge your allegiance to?"

"Master Bao knows it in his heart!" Guo Yaoshi didn't move at all.

Such an answer is equivalent to telling Jiang Xiaobai that Guo Yaoshi's allegiance is not to himself, but to someone else.

At this moment, Yelu Yuzhu's voice came from the room: "Have you suddenly awakened?"

Guo Yaoshi trembled all over, and immediately touched his head to the ground, saying: "The villain has committed a serious crime, please forgive me!"

"You deserve to die!" Yelu Yuzhu was furious, and possibly broke something.

Guo Yaoshi was even more sincere and frightened, and kowtowed continuously.

Ying Gu suddenly laughed and said, "Master Guo, what's the use of just kowtowing? You are a man, if you know your mistakes, you must correct them and correct your mistakes!"

"The villain knows!" Guo Yaoshi breathed a sigh of relief, and said solemnly: "The villain leads the Changsheng Army, with 17 cavalry, [-] infantry, and [-] box troops. I am willing to be a sword and let it be driven!"

Sure enough, it is a force that should not be underestimated. The total strength of the Ever Victorious Army has exceeded 20!
Although the combat effectiveness of the Xiang army is not satisfactory, Guo Yaoshi, as a warlord, definitely deserves his name.

No wonder Song Ting wanted to make Guo Yaoshi King of Yan during the Jingkang Incident.

"Very good, you know the times!" Ying Gu smiled, turned her head to the wooden door and said, "Sister, he wants to rely on you, let him get up?"

After a few seconds of silence, Yelu Yuzhu said: "Everything must be decided by my husband!"

That's right, the ball came to Jiang Xiaobai's side.

Jiang Xiaobai was a little dizzy, he felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden intervention of Ying Gu and Yelu Yuzhu.

The two women had just become the deputy heads. Although their loyalty to themselves had not decreased, their autonomy had increased a lot.

Especially Yelu Yuzhu, she actually asked Yinggu to come out and shoot the special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin, hiding in the door with a majestic tone, it seemed that the noble princess of the Liao Kingdom had returned.

Could it be that this is the internal response that Yelu Yuzhu was talking about, not the so-called Prince Xi?
Such a scene was even more shocking than the killing of the special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin just now. All the people attending the banquet were dumbfounded, some were terrified, some were angry, and most were at a loss.

Let's talk in another place, for example, go to San Ermen.

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "Master Guo, get up!"

Guo Yaoshi took a look at Jiang Xiaobai, and continued to kneel on the ground.

"Presumptuous!" Yelu Yuzhu shouted: "My husband asked you to get up, do you want to disobey orders?"

"The villain dare not!" Guo Yaoshi kowtowed again and stood up.

"What are you doing?" Wang Anzhong woke up leisurely, saw this scene, immediately struggled to stand up, and said sharply: "Lord Bao, I want to see the imperial envoy!"

"The imperial envoy has consumed too much mana, so it's inconvenient to see guests!" Jiang Xiaobai shook his head and refused.

"Beheading the special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin is a major event!" Wang Anzhong was startled and angry, and said, "Song and Jin are a country of covenant, a country of brothers, and the killing of the special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin in Song is a major event for the country. It may lead to war, can you afford this responsibility?"

To actually accuse Jiang Xiaobai repeatedly, it seems that he is not as timid as the legend says.

Jiang Xiaobai frowned, and asked, "My lord, are the Song and Jin countries really still countries of the covenant? Are there really no wars yet?"

Wang Anzhong said: "Of course it is the country of the covenant. How can there be a war in the country of the covenant?"

"Nonsense!" Jiang Xiaobai jumped up against the case and shouted: "There is no war, so Wanyan Zong hopes to occupy the land of thousands of miles in Pingzhou in the Great Song Dynasty, isn't it a war?"

"That's because Zhang Jue..."

"Leading [-] people, drive straight into the city of Yanshan, and force you to kill the loyal ministers and generals of our court. Is this what the covenant country should do?"

"The covenant stipulates that after the Liao Dynasty is destroyed, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun will all belong to our court. Have they fulfilled the covenant?"

"Looting Yanyun, resulting in ten rooms and nine empties, is this what a brotherly state should do?"

"The territory of the Great Song Dynasty actually stationed the army of the Kingdom of Jin for a long time. Don't the Jin people think that there is no one in the Kingdom of Song?"

"As the magistrate of Yanshan Prefecture, you are acting on behalf of the emperor, but you are being bullied by the Jinren, don't you feel ashamed?"

A series of questions hit Wang An's heart like a cannonball, making him dumbfounded.

But he was still very strong, and said: "This... this official is following the imperial court's order and acting in accordance with the order. What's wrong?"

"The imperial court?" Jiang Xiaobai sneered: "We are imperial envoys, and we represent the imperial court!"

"Imperial envoys are responsible for purchasing birthday plans, and must not interfere with local military and state affairs!" Wang Anzhong went all out, absolutely not allowing the crime of beheading the special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin to fall on himself.

"If the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. Even if I am a commoner, I still can't stand the Jin people acting recklessly on our Song land!" Jiang Xiaobai stared at Wang Anzhong with anger, and said, "Are you going to betray Song? Jin, don't you want your head off?"

"I am the magistrate of Yanshan Prefecture. If you want to kill me, you need a joint trial by three divisions. Your Majesty has issued an order!" While arguing, Wang Anzhong had already retreated to the side of the government soldiers, and he became more confident.

According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, strict interrogation procedures are required to kill officials of the fifth rank or above, and the final decision is made by the emperor.

Not to mention officials, even if ordinary people are sentenced to death, they can only be executed after the emperor's coup.

Therefore, Wang Anzhong was convinced that even if Guo Yaoshi did not stand with him, Jiang Xiaobai would not be able to kill him.

The big deal is to drive the imperial envoy out of the territory of Yanshan Mansion and prepare for a lawsuit.

However, he forgot one thing.

"I don't need your Majesty's decree to kill you!" Jiang Xiaobai sneered, and shouted loudly: "Come on, please ask the imperial decree, please Shangfang's sword!"
