My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 320 One slap won't kill you
Zeng Anmin scanned the area for a week but still found no trace.

"Whoo~"

"What exactly happened to Haoran Zhengqi these past few days?"

"Why do you keep warning me?"

"Could it be related to his conversion to extreme Confucianism?"

Zeng Anmin was pondering this.

A sharp sound rang out:

"Huang Shi!! You deserve to die, you know that?!"

"How dare you leave the yamen without the orders of the Inspector General!"

Distracted by the sound, Zeng Anmin looked ahead with a gloomy face.

Not far ahead, a procession of imperial guards was heading this way.

The leader was a eunuch dressed in a red robe.

The eunuch looked to be around thirty years old, with a small mustache on his chin.

He sat on his horse, his gaze turning in this direction with an extremely gloomy expression.

Those narrow eyes were filled with rage:

"His Majesty has only issued the order a short time ago, and you dare to show such contempt for imperial authority?"

His voice grew louder and louder.

His body also stopped in front of the line of grapes in front of Huang Shi.

"Eunuch Liu."

When Huang Shi was questioned, a hint of guilt flashed across his face.

With a forced smile on his face, he took two steps forward, intending to reach out and help the man off the horse.

"Humph!"

Liu Gonggong snorted coldly, stretched out his legs and turned over, completely ignoring Huang Shi's outstretched hand.

He slowly dismounted and straightened his clothes.

Huang Shi's hand froze in mid-air.

He had no choice but to grit his teeth and approach Eunuch Liu with a forced smile, saying:
“It was a special matter, an emergency. I was planning to go to the Inspectorate to apologize to my father-in-law after I finished my duties.”

The eunuch Liu glanced at Huang Shi indifferently, sneered, and ignored him completely. After smoothing out the wrinkles in his clothes, he slowly raised his head:

"Huang Shi, the Northern Supervisor of the Imperial City Guard, disobeys the imperial decree and despises imperial authority."

"His men, knowing he was wrong, did not try to dissuade him, but instead perpetuated his error."

"Seize them all and imprison them in the Imperial Prison!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing his words, the grapevines who had come with him shouted in unison.

Without the slightest hesitation, they headed towards this place, intending to capture Huang Shi and that group of raisins.

"Eunuch Liu!"

Upon seeing this, Huang Shi's expression turned grim. He took a deep breath and approached Eunuch Liu:

"The situation was indeed urgent, which is why I resorted to this desperate measure. Eunuch Liu, the fault lies with me; you may arrest me..."

At this point, he lowered his head, his voice carrying a hint of pleading:
"Don't involve the brothers."

Liu Gonggong clapped his hands leisurely, then slowly raised his head to look at Huang Shi's face.

The corners of his mouth turned up, and his smile was gentle.

He gently raised his hand and adjusted Huang Shi's collar, speaking in a low voice, so low that only the two of them could hear:

"Chief Huang, the Inspectorate was established by His Majesty's decree."

"The position of Minister Si lasted no more than two months."

"Now is the time to make an example of someone."

"Unfortunately, you've run right into the line of fire and become the chicken that's about to be killed."

As he finished speaking, his smile deepened, revealing a set of perfectly aligned yellow teeth:

"Therefore, this matter is not up to the experts."

After saying that, he waved his hand:
"take away!"

"Yes!!"

……

Zeng Anmin overheard their conversation.

At this moment, a sharp glint appeared on his face.

The conversation just now was conducted in very low voices.

However, he now possesses the combat strength of a fourth-rank martial artist and has excellent hearing, allowing him to hear things very clearly.

Party strife!

Power struggles.

Bai Ziqing represents the Bai family, and is backed by the current Empress Bai, who is a powerful maternal relative.

Si Zhongxiao is the chief eunuch of the current dynasty, Emperor Jianhong's most loyal dog, and one of the few top-tier combatants in the world today!

He is a third-rank martial artist!

They also wielded immense power.

He glimpsed something unusual in the limited information he had glimpsed.

"Brother Bai gained Emperor Jianhong's trust because of his merit in the Huang Yuangao case, and was temporarily appointed as the Director of the Imperial City Guard." "When he went on a diplomatic mission, this power temporarily fell into the hands of Si Zhongxiao."

“But when he returns from his mission, Si Zhongxiao will definitely hand over this power back.”

"But will he be content with that?"

Zeng Anmin squinted.

From a perspective of interests.

Bai Ziqing won't be coming back, so Si Zhongxiao is the one who will benefit the most!
The Imperial City Guard is a secret service agency! Its power extends to the highest levels!

"Moreover... Si Zhongxiao is a third-rank martial artist. He has the ability to make Bai Ziqing disappear without leaving any trace of a battle!"

Thinking of this, Zeng Anmin suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with an extremely sharp light!

Si Zhongxiao has now become Zeng Anmin's number one suspect!

"Om~"

A strange sensation instantly drew Zeng Anmin's attention.

A pure white jade pendant!
The jade pendant that connected him with Bai Ziqing!
A sound was heard!!

Without the slightest hesitation, he took out the jade pendant!
His gaze was fixed intently on the jade pendant.

"Da da da."

There was only the sound of footsteps.

Zeng Anmin dared not speak.

He was afraid of alerting the enemy.

"Hmm...where is this?" A familiar voice came.

Zeng Anmin gripped the jade pendant tightly with his hand!

Bai Ziqing's voice!

"Oh!"

A very dull thud.

Bai Ziqing's voice abruptly stopped.

The sound of the pure white jade pendant also stopped abruptly!

Still alive!! And it seems like he's being held hostage right now...

Zeng Anmin's eyes widened instantly, and a powerful aura emanated from him.

Without a second thought, he mounted his horse.

"Eunuch Liu..." Huang Shi's pleading continued, "Just arrest me, don't arrest them..."

"Enough with the nonsense!" Liu Gonggong's voice was extremely cold.

"Stop!" Upon seeing this, Zeng Anmin spurred his horse towards Eunuch Liu, his face icy cold.

Eunuch Liu looked up and saw Zeng Anmin.

"Young Master Zeng?" It was obvious that he knew Zeng Anmin.

"Clatter, clatter, clatter~" The sound of Zeng Anmin's horse's hooves rang out. He stared at Eunuch Liu, his voice icy:
"Let go."

Eunuch Liu was taken aback at first, then looked at Zeng Anmin with a forced smile:
"Young Master Zeng, the Imperial City Guard is not in your position yet..."

“This matter arose because of me; I was the one who sent Huang Shi out to patrol the streets.” Zeng Anmin walked up to Eunuch Liu:
"If you want to cause trouble, come to me, the official."

Eunuch Liu frowned.

"I am the chief clerk of the Northern Palace of the Imperial City, and they dare not disobey my orders."

Zeng Anmin looked at Eunuch Liu indifferently.

"So, Lord Zeng wants to bear the crime of disobeying the imperial decree and showing contempt for imperial authority?" Eunuch Liu sneered.

"Then don't worry about it. Just come to me if you need anything."

Zeng Anmin had already ridden his horse to stand in front of Eunuch Liu.

"Very well!" A sharp glint flashed across Eunuch Liu's face: "Since that's the case..."

He glanced at his men and said, "Release them!"

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the raisins released Huang Shi and all his men.

Seeing this, Eunuch Liu wore a lukewarm smile:
"Young Master Zeng, would you like to come with me?"

"Snapped!"

Zeng Anmin slapped him across the face, his expression cold and indifferent.
"I'll walk on your mother's face."

"If you want to arrest me, let Si Zhongxiao come here in person."

"You dare!!" Eunuch Liu covered his face, his eyes wide, staring intently at Zeng Anmin.

"roll!"

Zeng Anmin was too lazy to pay him any attention.

He rode straight ahead, heading towards the distance.

The entrance to the Ministry of Personnel.

The garrison commander named Niuqian Li was completely stunned.

He stared blankly at Zeng Anmin as he slowly approached.

"I ask you, where is the former garrison commander of the Ministry of Personnel?"

Zeng Anmin's calm voice rang out.
