Chapter 132: Eye contact with the Emperor

Chapter 132: Eye contact with the Emperor (1 a day, 2/, please vote)
"General Affairs Department, Wang Hao."

Although Wang Hao's voice was soft, it spread throughout the entire convoy.

Zhu Yongfu and the other three family heads looked pale.

They had certainly heard of the name.

The person who condenses the light of Tianquan.

As expected, it was the Seven Stars that were going to attack them.

Lift the car curtain,

Zhu Yongfu walked out of the carriage.
He looked around.
The bodies of the coachman, the family members, and even the horses.

The terror of death loomed over this pampered middle-aged man.

But he was not afraid, nor did he panic. He displayed the rare demeanor of a head of a wealthy family.

Standing on the carriage, he looked at Wang Hao.

"Why, even though we're about to leave, you still won't let us go?"

He shouted at Wang Hao, and there was actually a hint of grievance in his voice.

The surviving family members also showed expressions of grievance and resentment.

In their view, their willingness to leave Liyue was already a big concession.

And Qixing is still pursuing him, which is really bad.

"Are you stalling for time?"

Wang Hao had a blank expression on his face and was completely unmoved.

"Do you think the General Affairs Department can't see your little actions?"

"No need to act anymore. We have discovered that you were secretly transferring those properties and people."

"Don't worry, the mountain roads in the Layered Rock Abyss, the ships on the Cloud Sea, and even the Stone Gate and the Sunken Jade Valley are all ready."

"Even if you delay me here, they won't be able to escape."

Wang Hao's voice was like the sharpest knife, piercing directly into the hearts of Zhu Yongfu and others.

It turned out that their actions were discovered by the General Affairs Department?
It turns out that what they thought was a sacrifice was just wishful thinking?

"Why, why do you have to do it so drastically?"

Compared with the question just now, this question was really out of anger.

"Why do you want to do this?"

Wang Hao had a hint of sarcasm on his face: "You are also qualified to say this? When you were covering up for those casinos, did you ever think about those people whose families were destroyed by the casinos? Have you ever thought that what you did was also very ruthless!"

Gambling dogs are hopeless.

But gamblers were not gamblers from the beginning.

Many gamblers used to be hardworking and honest people.
It was the casino that led them into the abyss step by step.

Many people are scolding gamblers, but they forget that casinos are the biggest scourge.

Some people are cursing the casinos, but they forget that the big shots who endorse the casinos behind the scenes are even more of a disaster.

"You're going to deal with us just because of those untouchables?" Zhu Yongfu's eyes were filled with absurdity.

He thought of many reasons as to why the General Affairs Department targeted them, but this was the only reason he had never thought of.

“Untouchables? Ha, damn it! They are the people of Liyue, the same people as us. How dare you use this word?” There was a hint of anger in Wang Hao’s voice.

The last time, he beat up the fat boss in the casino, it was also because the fat boss used this word.

He doesn't like this word, and he has never liked it since he was a child.

“Isn’t it? We are all in this together. We followed the Emperor and led Liyue to where it is today. What have those lowly people done?” Zhu Yongfu shouted. “My Zhu family’s ancestors were seven stars. What’s wrong with us enjoying a little wealth?”

Not far away, Wang Hao was so angry that he almost laughed.

[Hahaha, when my grandfather followed the Emperor into the pass...]

[This metaphor is somewhat insulting to the Emperor.]

[Some people are like this. This is the iron rice bowl left by our ancestors. ]

[There is nothing wrong with having an iron rice bowl, but I am afraid that these people will eat other people's food while having an iron rice bowl. ]

[How can you be a superior person if you don’t eat other people? 】

[He deserves to be killed. He really deserves to be killed. ]

【Wang Hao killed him.】

【…】

There was also a rare unanimous expression of disgust towards Zhu Yongfu in the barrage.

"Kill? No, I want to capture him and bring him back to face the trial of the people of Liyue."

Wang Hao has changed his mind.

He originally wanted to kill them here to serve as a warning to others.

But now, he wanted to catch these people back and have them stand trial by the ordinary people they looked down upon.

In that case, the expressions of these people will definitely be very interesting.

Looking at Zhu Yongfu, the edge of the Yuhuazhishi gun had begun to flicker.

"Yes, you are indeed different from ordinary people. Ordinary people are human beings, but you... are just parasites."

He said coldly,
Wang Hao was too lazy to argue with these people.

The gun flashed and rushed towards the convoy.

Zhu Yongfu suddenly showed a look of horror, and shouted to the Gilded Brigade disguised as the Fatui: "Stop him, stop him."

He was ready to sacrifice for his family, but after learning that other teams that were secretly transferring were also intercepted,

He didn't want to sacrifice anymore.

People are always afraid of death.

The Fatui, who were using the convoy for cover, were also ready for battle.

Wang Hao, they also got information about this person from the Northland Bank.
It is said that he is Tianquan's subordinate and an important figure in Liyue.

I didn't expect to meet you here.

However, the fools are fearless!

The members of the 10th Company worked well together and had gone through countless battles together.

Although they saw the water currents surrounding Wang Hao, they were not afraid.

He is just the holder of the Eye of God. It’s not like he hasn’t been caught before.

Judging from the other person's clean and fair appearance, he doesn't look like an expert.

So the 10th Company charged.

Then, the 10th Company was defeated.

The violent water elements gathered into a torrent, but in an instant they broke up their formation.

The white jade spear light flickered across their limbs, severing the tendons in their hands and feet.

As Wang Hao's elemental power grows, his combat mode also changes.

He is trying more elemental means.

The control is as fine as silk thread.

Wang Hao also wants the crushing like a flood or tsunami.

Faced with the siege of twenty or thirty Fatui, Wang Hao used elemental power without hesitation to simulate a tsunami.

The effect is also obvious.
These Fatui simply couldn't hold on and their formation was directly broken up.

Then, under the sharp edge of the Yuhua Oath, they were dealt with one by one, and their tendons in their hands and feet were torn.

As for why not kill them.

These are all witnesses of the collusion between the powerful families such as Zhu, Li, and Zhang and the Fatui.

However, although the Fatui were defeated,
But these wealthy families still have some thugs, and there are nearly a hundred vehicles and many thugs.

Although they suffered some losses in the sneak attack by the spies, they were still outnumbered.

At Zhu Yongfu's call, they gradually surrounded Wang Hao.

Although these thugs are not as elite as the Fatui, they have the advantage of numbers, and they are Liyue people.

They probably sympathized with Zhu Yongfu and other wealthy families, and felt that it was Wang Hao and others who destroyed their lives as superiors.
Each of them had red eyes and looked like they wanted to eat Wang Hao.

Wang Hao's eyes turned cold. If it was before, he might have held back on these people.
But among the evidence submitted by Shi Jie, there were many crimes committed by these thugs in the name of powerful families.

These people are also evil.

"Since you have done something evil, don't feel that you are innocent."

Wang Hao shouted softly, and the spear in his hand was like a dragon, and he rushed into the group of thugs.

This time, he did not use elemental power.

However, with Wang Hao's tremendous strength, the power of the Yuhua Oath is not something that an ordinary person can withstand even without elemental power.

For a moment, blood, flesh and bones flew everywhere, and wailing and crying echoed.

When Wang Hao fought his way to Zhu Yongfu and others,
The smell of blood was already filling the air.

Not far away, some hidden spies looked at Wang Hao with horror.

They had never seen this scene either.

After all, they are just spies. If they were the Qianyan Army, they would probably have been threatened by now.

This behavior of charging into the battle line and killing the enemy is obviously more in line with the military's aesthetic.

On the battlefield,
Wang Hao dragged the blood-dripping Yuhua Spear and walked towards Zhu Yongfu step by step.

"I know it's impossible for you to recognize your mistakes. After all, you have different values. How can you think you are wrong? But it's okay. I will take you back to Liyue and tell everyone everything you have done. Let the people you despise judge you..."

Wang Hao's voice was very soft, but it made Zhu Yongfu and others feel heartbroken.

If I let those untouchables judge me, how can I survive?
Since I'm going to die anyway, why should I go back and suffer humiliation before dying?

So Zhu Yongfu got ruthless and rammed his head against the frame.

The frames of luxurious carriages are all covered with iron, and if you hit them, you can really commit suicide.

But he wanted to commit suicide in front of Wang Hao, which showed that he looked down on Wang Hao to some extent.

The water element swept over and turned into silk threads, directly tying up Zhu Yongfu.

Together with them were the other two family heads and the trembling young men of powerful families.

These playboys were so frightened by Wang Hao's killing that they dared not speak at all.

Glancing at these noble families who were like dead dogs,
Wang Hao finally understood: "It seems that these people are not noble, they are just trash."

[She is not noble to begin with, the powerful one is Liyue. 】

[They depend on Liyue. After leaving Liyue, they are just stray dogs.]

【The parasite just thinks it’s powerful. 】

[Their ancestors may have been true heroes, but they... have become corrupt.]

[If their ancestors were alive, the first people to attack them would be their ancestors.] [The rotten flesh should be scraped off.]

【…】

The commentators seemed to look down on these people even more than Wang Hao did.

But Wang Hao was used to it; the emotions in the comments were always extreme.

He waved to someone not far away.
Team Three appeared before him.

"Send a signal and have someone come over to take back the people and things, including the bodies."

Nearly a hundred large carriages, hundreds of corpses and a group of prisoners, this is certainly not something that fifty or so spies can escort back.

However, Wang Hao had already made arrangements with the Qianyan Army in advance.

Once the signal is sent here, the Qianyan Army will come to help.

He casually pulled a piece of cloth from the carriage and wiped the Yuhua Oath.

"Let the people disperse and see if there are any more members of the Fatui around."

Number Three nodded and turned to make arrangements.

……

Liyue Harbor, Scarlet Cloud Slope,

In an unknown teahouse,
Keqing looked down at the street, silently waiting for news.

There was some worry in his eyes.

She was not worried about Wang Hao's safety. She was confident in Wang Hao's fighting ability.

Unless he is ambushed by a large number of elite troops, Wang Hao will be able to escape unscathed no matter what accident he encounters.

Keqing is worried about whether there will be any omissions in this operation.
After all, this was the first large-scale operation led by Wang Hao.
If anything is missing, it will be a huge loss of points.

It will even affect Wang Hao's development within the Liyue system.

"Lord Yuheng, a spy has returned."

"Send someone over."

A spy came to Keqing.

"Master Yuheng."

"How's the situation?"

Keqing asked immediately.

A bit urgent.

She was worried and confused, but she was usually decisive and efficient, so the spy didn't feel anything was wrong.

"Everything went well. The Qianyan Army received the news and has gone to assist in transporting the items. Lord Wang Hao will be back soon."

Hearing this, Keqing's expression had eased. She sat down again and continued, "Tell me in detail."

“On the mountain road of the Layered Rock Abyss, the Thousand Rock Army stopped twenty trucks and more than thirty noble clans’ children, but no one escaped.

On the Yunlai Sea, the Southern Cross Fleet intercepted three large ships. One ship resisted violently and was eventually sunk. The others were all captured.

Shimen and Chenyugu had already stopped the people a few days ago, and did not disclose the news in order to keep it secret. "

The industries of the wealthy families are naturally not just in Liyue Harbor, they are located both near and far. The relocation to more distant places like Chenyu Valley and Shimen had already begun.

In order not to alert the enemy, the people from Chen Yugu and Shimen also suppressed the news.

It was not until the operation in Liyue Harbor began that they reported the victory.

Keqing nodded slightly: "I understand. Then go and inform the Qianyan Army and the General Affairs Department officials in Liyue Harbor to prepare. When Wang Hao returns, the final round of nets will begin."

The spy responded, "Okay, I'll go right away."

……

When Wang Hao returned to Liyue Harbor, it was already sunset.

Keqing greeted him.

“You’re not hurt, are you?” Keqing looked at him with light in her eyes.

Wang Hao smiled and shook his head: "Of course it's okay."

As he said this, he turned around in front of Keqing to show that he was not injured.

"I didn't kill them all. Someone pushed them back."

Wang Hao talked about his new idea.

"I want to publicly try them at Yujingtai."

"Public trial?" Keqing was a little confused.

Most of the cases, big or small, in Liyue are handled by the General Affairs Department.

Matters involving the military may be handled by the Qianyan Army.
If there are some matters that the General Affairs Department cannot handle, the Seven Stars will step in.

As for public trial, this concept has never appeared in Liyue.

Wang Hao also learned this concept from the barrage.

A public trial is a trial meeting open to everyone.

In this kind of trial meeting, even an ordinary person has the opportunity to speak.
If you think the person being judged is a good person, then come out and defend him.

If you think he is a bad person, then stand up and tell his crimes.

In the description of the barrage, this mode is used to judge these powerful people, and there is actually another name,
It’s called a grievance meeting.

Everyone came together to tell their experiences of being oppressed by the powerful, and then, with a common will, completed the trial of these vicious and powerful people.

When Wang Hao told Keqing about this idea,

Keqing immediately realized how terrifyingly influential this mode was.
But she also knows that this model can easily be distorted.

After all, people who speak sincerely are usually not as good as those who spread rumors.

If the public trial is misled by someone with ulterior motives, it will be a serious disaster.

"We can screen the audience and put those oppressed civilians at the front of the public trial."

Wang Hao understood Keqing's hesitation.

Once this kind of public opinion gets out of control, the destructive power will be extremely strong.

"As long as the oppressed civilians speak out, it will cause a wave, and..."

Wang Hao's expression darkened slightly.

"We don't need to wait for them to use rumors and propaganda. We can use them in advance."

Who doesn't spread rumors?

It’s not like Wang Hao hasn’t used this trick before. In the previous slum case, he used rumors to resolve rumors.

It's nothing more than the hegemony of public opinion.

If someone else spreads rumors, the General Affairs Department will arrest them. But if Wang Hao sends someone to spread rumors, the General Affairs Department will also help.

As long as you don't lose face, you have nothing to fear after the authorities take action secretly.

Keqing understood what Wang Hao meant and rolled her eyes at him.
She has always been aware of Wang Hao's "badness".

Seeing that Keqing just rolled her eyes and did not continue to object, Wang Hao knew that Keqing agreed.

"Let's go, let's give everyone a first impression."

Wang Hao said with a smile.

Keqing was speechless. Where did these strange words come from?

However, she also understood, and next, she would tell all the people of Liyue that it was him, Wang Hao, who had touched these three powerful families.

Turn around and leave the teahouse,

A group of silent Qianyan soldiers were already waiting outside.

Behind the Qianyan Army were several officials from the General Affairs Department.

"Let's go and search the house."

Wang Hao waved his hand and walked in front.

In the evening, when Liyue Harbor has the most people,
Especially in the prosperous Feiyunpo, it might be an exaggeration to say that there were huge crowds of people, but it is no problem to say that there was a surging tide of people.

When Wang Hao and his men paraded through the city, countless people's eyes were on them.

In particular, the leader Wang Hao attracted a lot of attention.

At the entrance of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Xingqiu was holding a sword that he had just received from a Mondstadt collector, and was about to go out to find Wang Hao to avenge his previous humiliation.
I saw Wang Hao passing by with a serious look on his face.
He wanted to say hello, but his brother held his hand.

"Your friend has important things to do, don't disturb him."

As the eldest son of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, when the three wealthy families sold their properties, he also took over some important properties at the suggestion of the General Affairs Department.
Naturally, I also learned some things.
Now, seeing Wang Hao and his men parading through the city, it is natural to understand that matters are coming to an end.

Xingqiu looked confused, not knowing what his brother was talking about.

Seeing his brother's confused look, Brother Xingqiu rubbed his head and said nothing more.

roadside,

Hu Tao and Zhong Li were shopping.

After seeing Wang Hao, Hu Tao was a little surprised: "What is Wang Hao going to do?"

Zhongli smiled faintly and inadvertently exchanged glances with Wang Hao: "Let's clean up."

"Cleaning?" Hu Tao looked suspicious. "The Qianyan Army is taking on this job now?"

Zhongli didn't continue talking.

in the team,
Wang Hao withdrew his gaze from Zhongli Keqing, and felt more resolute in his heart.

From what he saw just now, Wang Hao could be sure that Zhongli definitely knew what he had done and supported him in doing so.

"So, the Emperor is on my side."

A hint of joy appeared in Wang Hao's heart.

After all, reform is a big deal, and if he has the support of the emperor, he will be more confident.

[From the look in his eyes just now, Lao Deng was probably smiling at Wang Hao. ]

[So, Lao Deng should know everything Wang Hao did.]

[It is normal that the God of Wind knows the names of every one of his people and the God of Rock knows the movements of his people. ]

[However, since the Emperor knew about the existence of the corrupt family, why didn't he take action? ]

[Because the corrupt ones...are also his people.]

[The devil's love for people is impartial. 】

【Some things are incomprehensible.】

[Because we are **, we definitely cannot understand the Demon God of Teyvat. 】

【…】

As the barrage of comments refreshed, Wang Hao led his men to the garden of a luxury mansion.
