Fox Three has been working at the grassroots level for many years and has rich experience in the industry. Not long after he was promoted to Purple Guard, he perfectly fulfilled his role as a dog official.
Yu Tao knew that he was reliable and would not be caught by anyone, so he asked a few questions and said no more, and conveyed the intention of the capital.
"The ancestors of the Western King have made great contributions to the country. Even if the descendants have made mistakes, they can be treated leniently because of the protection of their ancestors. You and the Western King's Palace should handle this matter privately. Don't make any big noise."
Yu Tao looked around and reminded them, "I came here this time to support you, but in fact I am impartial. You should stop while you are ahead and do not pursue the West King's Mansion relentlessly."
I understand. We must pursue this matter relentlessly and even destroy the Western Palace.
Hu San understood and nodded. Having just taken action against the East Palace, the royal family should not openly take action against the West Palace. It had to be done in private. In order to prevent the West Palace from being stubborn, Yu Tao was specially sent to take sides.
As for the dissatisfaction of the clans and powerful people, the emperor clapped his hands, indicating that it had nothing to do with him and that it was all the corrupt officials below who acted on their own.
There's nothing wrong with that. That's how Wu Zhou was. She doesn't even dare to take the blame for the smallest things. What use is there for His Majesty to have you
What? You said you are greedy, but you still show filial piety every year
It’s so funny, who wouldn’t do that
The two nodded in understanding. As a member of the Xuanyin Division and the referee of this mediation, Yu Tao had to bear the blame. But he couldn't bear it all and act like a weak boss who didn't control his subordinates. If he was to be held accountable one day, he would at most be charged with a minor crime of incompetence.
Fox Three and Fox Four took the blame, and with Yu Tao in the front, they were only responsible for asking for an exorbitant price. But if one day the time came for a reckoning, the two brothers would be sentenced to a serious crime.
Fortunately, the problem is not serious. Fox Two is not a decoration. Fox Four had previously defiled the innocence of the eldest princess, who is the emperor's biological sister. The crime is serious enough, but it's nothing.
"By the way, where is Lu Ziwei?"
"My second brother is guarding the prisoners in the dungeon, Lord Yu, please don't worry about him. I have prepared some local customs and culture for you. Although it is not as magnificent as the capital, it has its own unique flavor. You can go over and take a rest."
"Isn't this... inappropriate?"
"Don't worry, Lord Yu. I, Hu, am an honest official. Everyone in Ningzhou knows that I am incorruptible. I don't have spare money to bribe people. I just bought some local specialties to satisfy my appetite." Hu San said righteously. The defendant and victim of the West King's Mansion have not yet appeared. It is reasonable and in line with the national conditions for the plaintiff to ask the judge to be at ease with nothing to do.
"In that case, it would be disrespectful for Yu to refuse."
"Hahaha, please, Lord Yu."
"Hu Ziwei, please go first."
No one from the West King's Palace came. Yu Tao wanted to uphold justice, but one person was missing and it was not time to start the banquet. At the invitation of Fox Three, the two dog officials disappeared somewhere.
This money was used by Fox San to divert to the public account and recorded as team-building expenses.
On Lu Bei's side, experience points were continuously mined. Zhu Qiming and Zhu Qike did not move much. The others, especially Zhu Jingting who was in the fusion stage, did not stop until they had gained all the experience points.
"happy!"
In the huge private room of Shuangxuanbaotu, Lu Bei was alone. He looked at the seven or eight big men opposite him and hooked his finger, saying, "Don't say that I, the Purple Guard, won't give you a chance. If you have grievances, you have grievances. If you have revenges, you have revenges. You have more people, so come together!"
At this time, Zhu Jingting was already lying down, his eyes dim and without any luster.
Without his support as a fusion-stage cultivator, the remaining Void Refinement Realm cultivators felt insecure, secretly thinking that they could not win even if they attacked together, and were determined not to give Lu Bei a chance to challenge them alone.
In a further corner, Zhu Qiming and Zhu Qike were terrified. They felt that the masked purple guard had entered the devil's way. He beat people, healed his wounds, and beat people again... over and over again, never getting tired of it. This was definitely the behavior of a devil.
"Giving you a chance is useless, so I'll leave now!"
Lu Bei raised his hand and shrank the space of the private room. Amid the wailing of the cultivators in the Void Refinement Realm, he punched them one after another.

In terms of experience, there was really no benefit to be gained. It would take some time to refresh the red name. Lu Bei took a group of people out of the formation and locked them in the dungeon.
The kind with skylights and courtyard walls are not afraid of you running away, but they are afraid that you don’t run away.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Qiming and Zhu Qike became even more certain of their thoughts. This man had fallen into the evil way. If they fell into his hands, they would be skinned alive if not dead.
The brother and sister felt very sad, especially Zhu Qi Ke. One wrong move could lead to the whole game being lost. They couldn't understand why such a small Ningzhou had such brutal Purple Guards? The Purple Guards of Xianzhou were obviously very nice to listen to.
"Second brother, are you still busy here?"
Fox walked into the dungeon in three steps and saw that the iron gate was open, the courtyard wall had collapsed, and deep mountains and old forests were in the distance. He was immediately happy.
As expected of you, you know how to have fun.
Then, Fox Three saw that one of the prisoners was missing, the heavyweight Zhan Lexian was gone.
"Brother, why are you here to see me instead of recuperating outside?"
Lu Bei asked without even turning his head. Suddenly, he realized something and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Forget about it. I have integrity and will not let you interrogate the princess alone."
"Bah, she's dreaming."
Fox Three curled his lips and said unconvincedly, "I should be the one saying this. You guarded the dungeon gate and didn't go out. Tell me, did you torture the princess?"
I'm too lazy to torture the princess, let alone the county princess. She doesn't even have a place in the queue.
Lu Bei rolled his eyes at Hu San and told him to just say whatever he wanted to say and not to fart outside.
"Where is that elder Zhan? Is he somewhere else?"
"Why, Xuanyin Division is also in need of a swordsman to teach and answer questions?"
"also… "
Hu San was stunned when he heard this, and frowned, "The Huangji Sect sent someone to look for you. When?"
"During the day, the one who came was Zhu Heng, the Grand Elder of the Huangji Sect."
It turned out to be him.
Fox San nodded. Speaking of the great elders of the Huangji Sect, Zhu Heng's name was undoubtedly the most famous. It was because he had a good son-in-law with a good reputation, so it was difficult for him to keep a low profile.
"Second brother, don't tell anyone that you handed Zhan Lexian over to the Huangji Sect. If the Tianjian Sect knew about this, our small bodies wouldn't be able to withstand the crazy revenge of the Iron Sword Alliance."
"It's natural. I know it."
Lu Bei recounted what happened during the day, mostly telling the truth, but he omitted some parts and exaggerated them, creating an image of a personal hero full of tragedy.
He sighed repeatedly, feeling very guilty: "I promised to vent my anger on my elder brother before, but I didn't expect that four or five swords would be placed on my neck. I was cowardly for a moment, so I... handed Zhan Lexian over."
"My dear brother, you have been wronged. It's okay. I appreciate your kindness. Don't act recklessly next time. Just show your kindness."
With Fox San's calculating mind, he could guess that Lu Bei's oral version was seriously inconsistent with reality. However, since it involved a Nine Swords Elder from the Tianjian Sect and the Huangji Sect was involved, the dangers were still very real. He was extremely moved just thinking about it.
This dear brother really treats him sincerely!
"Speaking of which, Zhu Heng ran away too quickly. He took the benefits and ran away, and put all the blame on you, my dear brother. You deserve his daughter to be eaten by a pig." Fox Three said disdainfully.
"You can't say that. Eighth Aunt is a very good person. If you have to say there's something wrong with her, it's probably her eyesight." Lu Bei sighed. This story told him that blindness can ruin a life, and people must protect their eyesight.
"Aunt Eight?!"
"Well, although Zhu Heng ran away, Lu has recognized this grandfather. If he dares to say it, I dare to do it. Sooner or later, he will vomit out everything he has eaten."
"What do you mean?"
"Over at Changming Mansion..."
Lu Bei explained in a long and rambling way, and Hu San's eyes lit up: "So that's how it is. I'm still wondering why you gave your innocent body to Princess Changming. It turns out you have this plan. Please ask for me if there is any princess in the capital who is still unmarried. It doesn't matter if she's married. I'll go find a relative too."
Then you might as well go find the current emperor. I guarantee that you will replace the imperial concubine next year, and become the mother of the country the year after.
Lu Bei shrugged. After hearing what Fox San told him, he learned that Yu Tao came here on orders, so he decisively left the dungeon. The three dog officials discussed the issue of compensation.
Playing at home, with a friendly referee, all the main players of the enemy team are in hospital, and all the foreign players have temporarily left the field. We can get a basketball score on the green field, so there is no need to be polite to the people from the West Palace.
…
Three days later, an envoy from the Western Palace arrived and stated that the matter was all a misunderstanding and that they were going to settle the matter privately.
The Tianjian Sect lost an elder and brought disgrace to the Huangji Sect, which was humiliating. In response to the request for help from the West Palace, they generously expressed their spiritual support but could do nothing else to help.
As for the Huangji Sect, they are beating the fallen dog and squeezing the living space of the Jinglei Sect and other mountain sects. These are the voices that are necessary for the West Palace to survive and cannot be easily lost.
After three days of delay, they could not delay any longer. With the heroic spirit of being at the mercy of others, the envoy team was determined to bring Zhu Qi Ke and others back to Xianzhou as quickly as possible.
The leader of the diplomatic team is the Princess of the West. Ever since she was bullied by Lu Bei that day, all she could think about was his bad and heroic figure. She took the initiative to take on the important task of the diplomatic mission and wanted to come to Ningzhou to see Lu Bei again.
She had already answered Lu Bei's question last time.
Yes, she didn't want the King of the West to suffer in Ningzhou.
Then…
When the Queen of the West saw Fox Three, she learned that this vixen who brought disaster to the country and the people was actually a man. She immediately changed her target with great interest and forgot the purpose of her trip to Ningzhou.
At the negotiation venue, Fox San threw down his crutches and pointed at the blood-stained gauze on his head. As soon as he opened his mouth, Princess West took the initiative to step forward, bravely taking responsibility and giving Yi a little money for medicine.
He is too cunning, and Lu Bei is at a loss. If the West Palace doesn't lower the price, how can he raise the price? Without this process, how can he please his eldest brother and improve his satisfaction score
Fox Three roughly understood what was going on. He was familiar with this look and had seen it too many times.
I secretly gave him a look and promised that as long as the price was right, I would make sure that he would be satisfied with the performance at three o'clock tonight.
The negotiations were simple after that. Before Lu Bei could make any effort, the West Palace gave up all resistance after the West Princess surrendered to the enemy and allowed Fox Sanqi to come and go as he pleased. Yu Tao became a spectator and didn't even have a chance to open his mouth.
The negotiations, originally planned to last at least ten days, were concluded in less than half an hour, and both the plaintiff and the defendant expressed their satisfaction.
At three o'clock in the morning, Fox Three fulfilled his promise and personally sent Western King Zhu Qike to the door, allowing the princess to return happily.
Princess Xi: “…”
Lu Bei: “…”
