My Gu Can Cultivate on Their Own

Chapter 220: Killing Five Birds With One Stone

When Prime Minister Li Jiqing left the imperial study room, he continued to rush back to his department with a calm expression, but he was thinking to himself.

What methods should he use to deal with this Zhang clan head and the affiliated forces?

Suddenly, he remembered that Fang Yuan from the Gu Immortal Sect was a good chess piece!

If he released him to continue to fight with Zhang clan, after Fang Yuan dealt with all the heads of these forces, he would be the one to wrap things up, and he would give Fang Yuan a chance to take revenge himself.

If he was the one to wrap things up, he could raise the prestige of Yan Shen Empire to the highest, and his own losses would be minimal.

It was said that Fang Yuan and the Zhang clan were fighting this time because the Zhang clan had touched Wan Qian of the Gu Immortal Sect?

And while the Wan clan was a piece of fat meat, it was worthless in his eyes, thus he did not need to embezzle. He would leave it to Wan Qian.

Since Fang Yuan was concerned about Wan Qian’s safety, he could not capture every person in these forces and interrogate them.

Therefore, Fang Yuan would be the one to deal with those top-notch people.

If Fang Yuan could not get any relevant information, then Prime Minister Li Jiqing himself would be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and capturing the remaining people. He believed that under the actions of the Yan Shen Empire’s forces, no one would be able to escape his capture.

He did not believe that he would not be able to get a few pieces of information after capturing all those people.

When the time came, he would use this piece of information as compensation to Fang Yuan. This was a win-win situation.

As Prime Minister Li Jiqing made this arrangement in his heart, he began to think about how to write a letter to the Supreme Court deputy, Chen Younian.

As for the relevant documents, it was naturally a piece of cake to release a person from the Supreme Court’s prison. All he needed to do was to mention it in the letter to the Supreme Court deputy, Chen Younian.

And this time, the method he decided to use was — this was the order of the Yan Shen Saint! And Fang Yuan was part of his plan to complete it!

He wanted to make all of this seem like a battle between top-notch experts on the surface, and not because the Yan Shen Empire was powerless to detect more information and could only realize the betrayal in hindsight.

After making this decision in his heart, Prime Minister Li Jiqing summarized the final result of his operation.

First, he had already gathered a large amount of evidence of Zhang clan betraying the Yan Shen Empire, and this operation could completely resolve the Zhang clan, a force that endangered the Yan Shen Empire’s safety.

At the same time, it eased his relationship with his son, Li Tongzhou, and brought their relationship closer. Who did not know that his relationship with Li Tongzhou had already reached the point of falling apart?

Also, Fang Yuan, who would save the Gu Immortal Sect, would be grateful to him.

After all, he was the one who had released him from the Supreme Court’s prison. From the information he had obtained, Fang Yuan’s potential was huge, and he might even take that step in the future and become one of the top experts of the Yan Shen Empire. This could be considered a good relationship to have.

At the same time, he would ensure the safety of the Wan clan’s assets, keeping them in the hands of the Gu Immortal Sect, building a good relationship with Gu Immortal Sect.

Through this operation, he could continue to strengthen his image in the eyes of the Yan Shen Saint, and at the same time, he could use this operation to get rid of some of his enemies in the large clans.

Those fellows had been opposing him in the Imperial Court all day long, and he had quite a bit of evidence in his hands. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could catch them all in one fell swoop.

This action of killing five birds with one stone was very in line with Prime Minister Li Jiqing’s idea.

Wonderful, very wonderful!

At his age and position, people would never do things without a reason, and they would not act for a single purpose. However, one should not think that they were weak and could be bullied, and that they were usually unscrupulous.

Once such people became serious, they only needed to take action once, and the grudges of the past three to five years, or even more than ten years, would be settled.

While taking action like this, he would not harm much of his power. The only power he would use is from the strong ones.

Such a complicated chess game was the best interpretation of the saying, “Old men become wise.” At the same time, it was also the reason why the official forces, especially those who were closer to the center of power, were more terrifying.

Even these people were far more terrifying than experts of the same strength.

Prime Minister Li Jiqing thought for a while, and after confirming that there were no other conditions, he returned to his study and started taking action.

...

The next morning.

Gu Tianqing, Qin Han, Zhou Chang and many other disciples of the Gu Immortal Sect gathered in Yan Shen Empire’s capital. They were waiting for Fang Yuan to appear at the entrance of the Supreme Court’s prison.

At this moment, in the Supreme Court’s prison, a document sent out in the name of the Supreme Court’s general manager, Chen Younian, also arrived.

But one step faster than this document was the document from Prime Minister Li Jiqing, which had arrived at the Supreme Court’s prison before midnight.

Whether it was the document from the Supreme Court, or the document from Prime Minister Li Jiqing earlier, the Supreme Court jailers could not contend against them, so they immediately followed orders.

“Fang Yuan, the one over here?”

A strange voice suddenly came from outside the pitch-black prison. Fang Yuan opened his eyes.

“It’s me, I’m Fang Yuan,” Fang Yuan said.

“I hate people like you the most. You clearly have your own connections in the court, why don’t you use them?”

“Say, if you could have gotten those big shots to take action earlier, would we brothers have let you stay in this place?”

After the jailer opened the door, he seemed to be complaining to Fang Yuan in the pitch-black prison.

“However, please be magnanimous with us servants. We are just following orders.”

In Fang Yuan’s vision, after the jailer entered, he first bowed very politely and then said.

Fang Yuan was naturally not that bored. According to the normal procedure of handling cases, after the Supreme Court arrested a criminal who committed a crime on the street like him, they should have served him with severe punishment and interrogated him severely, and those things were the terrible part.

As for the things that he was going to encounter at this moment, it was actually not worth mentioning!

“It’s fine, it’s fine. I understand your difficulties!”

Fang Yuan said to the jailer lightly.

Then, he saw the jailer walk up in a few steps and hold Fang Yuan’s hand as he said.

“Alright, alright. Thank you.”

“Come on. Let’s go out quickly and get our brothers to change your clothes. Have a bath and eat. After that, your fellow disciples and brothers will come to pick you up.”

The jailer continued to say obsequiously.

“After all, it’s not convenient for you to go out in your current state and meet your fellow disciples, right? It can also be considered as giving us a way out!”

“If you go out like this now and let them know of your situation inside, I reckon that our lives will come to an end.”

Looking at the jailer who wanted to curry favor with him, Fang Yuan was silent at first. After pondering for a while, he slowly walked out of the cell and slowly nodded.

“Sure.”
