Chapter 416: Tiger Seal town (1)
“You two, it’s not good to continue this confrontation. If they really fought, no one would gain an advantage. Why don’t we go in first and solve the problem after we’ve clarified it?” Zhuang Qiyang said.
“That’s good, you guys keep your weapons. ” Tang Wen nodded.
“All of you, back down.” Liu huaijun waved her hand, and the men from the ten thousand flower Pavilion retreated to the outside of the manor.
Soon, the two of them only brought a few people into the hall. After checking the house and land deeds, Zhuang Qiyang was dumbfounded.
“Lord Zhuang, are our house and land deeds fake?” Liu huaijun asked.
“It’s true! However, the Vice Commander-in-Chief’s was not fake either. Moreover, His Highness’s personal approval and the high Duke’s witness are also present. ” Zhuang Qiyang replied.
“It’s true, but there’s also a first come, first served basis. Our house and land deeds are clearly older than the Vice Commander-in-Chief ‘s, so they have to be ours. ” Liu huaijun said.
“I think we need to investigate this matter clearly.
However, this matter involved the ocean saint’s Inspector General, Zhang Zhongyuan.
Thus, why don’t you two come with me to see Lord Zhang and ask him for an explanation?” Zhuang Qiyang said.
“Fine, I’ll go. My ten thousand flower Pavilion spent sixty million taels to buy this villa. I won’t steal or Rob it.” Liu huaijun said.
“Alright, let’s go now.” Zhuang Qiyang nodded, and the group of them went straight to the provincial governor’s office.
“Teacher, Zhang Zhongyuan is not a simple person.
......
When you reach the Yamen, you can’t talk back to him at will.
Otherwise, it’ll be quite troublesome. ” On the way, Zhuang Qiyang sent a secret voice-Sending message.
“What, could he be more powerful than a Prince or a Duke?” Tang Wen snorted.
“Although this person is the ocean saint’s inspector, he actually has another more important identity, which is ‘general ocean Saint’, a secondary first rank official.” Zhuang Qiyang said.
“I’m afraid that the Imperial court has a profound meaning behind this arrangement?” Tang Wen asked.
“Yes, I’ve heard about this before. I’m guessing that Zhang Zhongyuan was sent here to balance out His Highness.” Zhuang Qiyang replied.
“Sea Saint City is the center of the seven southern provinces, guarding the estuary. They would defend against the sun nation’s strategic location from the outside and protect the capital from the inside.
However, sea Saint City was quite far from the capital city, a few thousand miles away.
As such, the Emperor naturally wasn’t completely at ease with Chu Xiangang’s presence.
Therefore, he came up with a general ocean Saint to keep him in check.
So, I think we’ve fallen into his Highness “trap.” Tang Wen said.
“We can’t rule out this possibility, because I’ve heard that Zhang Zhongyuan and his Highness have never been on good terms.
His Highness must have wanted to drive Zhang zhengzhen away long ago, but it was not easy to do so.
So, I’m taking this opportunity to ask you to cause a scene and see if you can find an opportunity to drive Zhang Zhongyuan away.
Even if I can’t drive him away, I can at least disgust him a little. ” Zhuang Qiyang replied.
“I’ve become a spear in His Highness’s hands. ” Tang Wen snorted.
“So, teacher, you have to be careful. Otherwise, if you’re caught between the two of them and something happens, you’ll be the one to suffer. Either one of them can kill you. ” Zhuang Qiyang said.
“I’m determined to get the Blue Moon villa, no matter what. It was written in black and white. They’ll have to think twice if they want to mess with me. ” Tang Wen sneered.
“His Highness knows about your background, but Zhang Zhongyuan doesn ‘T. He won’t give you any face.” Zhuang Qiyang said.
“At most, we’ll just get them all together and beat the gongs in front of us.” Tang Wen said.
“Sigh ... Actually, there’s another problem. The ten thousand flower Pavilion was ranked third among the ten ocean Saints sects. It had more than ten thousand disciples and was very powerful.
I’m thinking that Zhang Zhongyuan sold the Blue Moon villa to them because he wanted to rope them in.
After all, in ocean Saint City, Wangye was the most powerful.
Moreover, the Duke was also biased towards His Highness. Zhang Zhongyuan, a person with a different surname, also felt a mountain of pressure.
Therefore, they wanted to use the martial arts world to balance out Your Highness. ” Zhuang Qiyang said.
“They probably have the same intention.” Tang Wen replied.
Not long after, the group of people arrived at the provincial governor’s office.
Zhang Zhongyuan wasn’t tall, only about 1.7 meters. He was fair and chubby, and didn’t look very impressive.
However, Tang Wen knew that those who could sit in his position today were not simple. Often, these people were the real masters.
After carefully looking through the house and land deeds that the two of them presented, Zhang Zhongyuan said,”the Blue Moon villa was confiscated by the Imperial court. At that time, it was the provincial governor’s office who took over the villa.
Since it was seized by the provincial governor’s office, it naturally belonged to the provincial governor’s office.
In the past two years, there had been constant war in the Northwest, and there had been another one in the southeast.
My provincial governor’s office is also under a lot of pressure, we simply can’t gather enough to pay the military salary.
His Highness didn’t care about money, he only wanted money, but where did the money come from?
After much consideration, I, Zhang Zhongyuan, had no choice but to sell the Blue Moon villa. ”
“Lord Zhang, the ownership of the Blue Moon Mountain Villa is still open to discussion. The one that was seized by the provincial governor’s office is correct.
However, it didn’t mean that the provincial governor’s office had the right to sell it. Chu Qiyang was a traitor who had betrayed his country. This matter was of great importance.
The Blue Moon Manor that he built was a nest of rebellions. Even if the Imperial court confiscated it, it still had to be handed over to the Imperial court. The provincial governor’s office was only following orders. How could it belong to the provincial governor’s office?
To give a simple example, if some officials ‘houses were confiscated, the money would have to be turned over to the National Treasury. It was impossible for the money and property to belong to whoever went to confiscate their houses.
The Lord of sea Saint City was still the most important.
I would like to ask Lord Zhang, did you get His Highness “permission to sell this Manor?” Tang Wen asked.
