    Guo Shouzhong is not only the confidant of the Seventh Prince Zhu Hejian and the head of the "Chaofeng" organization, but also the mastermind behind this "accident".  When chaos broke out, Guo Shouzhong stood in a safe position not far away and watched the whole process of the disaster with cold eyes.  In the end, a hint of fear flashed across Guo Shouzhong's expression again, and he shook his head reluctantly and commented: "This job is really well done!" Guo Shouzhong just conveyed Zhu Hejian's instructions to Jiang Xiao, instructing Jiang Xiao to create an accident.  Not only must the people around Huo Zhengyuan suffer heavy casualties, but Huo Zhengyuan's own life must not be threatened, and Huo Zhengyuan must also witness the tragic death and injury of the people around him, completely frightening Huo Zhengyuan.  ¡°However, the specific means of executing the mission are all left to Jiang Xiao¡¯s discretion, and Guo Shouzhong will not interfere.  In fact, this task is not easy to complete. If the people around Huo Zhengyuan are seriously injured and Huo Zhengyuan witnesses it, it will easily implicate Huo Zhengyuan himself. If he is not careful, he will kill Huo Zhengyuan by the way; if he must save Huo Zhengyuan  It would be difficult for the people around Huo Zhengyuan to suffer heavy casualties, and it would also be difficult for Huo Zhengyuan to witness the tragedy at close range.  Not to mention, there are more requirements such as not revealing traces, not leaving evidence, etc.  Guo Shouzhong asked himself, even if he planned it himself, it would not be easy to complete this task.  But Jiang Xiao still quickly found a specific method and completed the task properly.  He first found a mule cart and fed the mules with crazy drugs, causing the mules to suddenly lose control and go crazy, running rampant on the streets.  But Jiang Xiao did not intend to use this crazy mule to cause death or injury to the people around Huo Zhengyuan, because it was difficult for him to control the mule cart to cause precise damage, and he could not guarantee Huo Zhengyuan's safety. He just wanted to use this out-of-control mule cart to cause harm  A chaos.  Taking advantage of the chaos, the "Chaofeng" dead soldier could hide his presence and secretly lurk near Huo Zhengyuan and others. Then he took the opportunity to trip Jiang Zheng and several of Huo Zhengyuan's followers to the ground, allowing these people to escape.  Unable to get up in the chaos, he could also take advantage of the chaos to push Huo Zhengyuan himself to a safer position.  In the end, he took advantage of the panic of the people and caused a trampling accident!  Amidst the chaos and panic, everyone was too preoccupied with looking after themselves, so naturally no one paid attention to these little moves of the "Chaofeng" dead soldier.  In addition to the "Chaofeng" dead man, nearby passers-by were also involved in this trampling accident. Everyone needs to bear responsibility, and they all instinctively try to distance themselves from each other, and they do not hesitate to lie to prove themselves.  If he is innocent, he will definitely provide various perjury to the government and actively assist the "Chaofeng" organization to obfuscate the truth.  At the same time, kerosene, hay and other materials were also placed in the mule cart in advance. With a little movement, a fire could be quickly ignited and all the evidence would be burned!  In this way, even if someone wanted to investigate the truth afterwards, they would not be able to find any physical evidence at all, and the witness statements must be contradictory and cannot be trusted. The death of "Xiao Feng" who really caused this "accident"  The soldiers, on the other hand, took advantage of the chaos and left the scene of the accident in advance, as if they had never appeared.  In the end, Jiang Xiao not only successfully completed Zhu Hejian's instructions, but also caused heavy casualties to those around Huo Zhengyuan. On the premise of ensuring Huo Zhengyuan's life, Jiang Xiao allowed Huo Zhengyuan to witness the tragedy with his own eyes, and at the same time, he did not leave any traces with him.  The evidence completely concealed the truth behind the scenes.  Apart from the large number of innocent passers-by being implicated and heavy casualties, Jiang Xiao¡¯s plan had almost no shortcomings.  But neither Zhu Hejian, Jiang Xiao, nor Guo Shouzhong cared about these innocent passers-by who suffered heavy casualties.  Therefore, although Guo Shouzhong did not like Jiang Xiao's behavior and believed that Jiang Xiao was always too noisy when doing things, he had to admit that Jiang Xiao was a criminal genius and perfectly executed the tasks assigned by Zhu Hejian.  It¡¯s no wonder that the seventh prince Zhu Hejian can always tolerate Jiang Xiao¡¯s behavior.  This person is really too stable when doing things. He is both cruel and cruel, but also thoughtful. He is very good at hiding the truth in the fog of chaos.  In a certain respect, Jiang Xiao and Zhu Hejian are a perfect match!  After having such thoughts in his mind, although Guo Shouzhong was very satisfied with Jiang Xiao's methods, deep down in his heart he became more and more repelled by Jiang Xiao, thinking that although this Jiang Xiao could not show up in public, he still threatened his status.  But Guo Shouzhong quickly shook his head to suppress the strange thoughts in his heart, not daring to continue to think deeply, and quickly turned around and left.  "Huo Zhengyuan"He lacks courage at all. After he witnesses this disaster with his own eyes, he will be so frightened that he will no longer dare to act casually. He will easily compromise, and then His Highness the Seventh Prince can easily rule it out.  As for the hidden dangers and influence of the 'Zhao Party' in Southern Zhili, we only need to focus on dealing with Zhou Shangjing and those wealthy gentry families At the same time, Huo Zhengyuan is a bachelor of the imperial court. If he dies unexpectedly or is seriously injured,  , it will definitely attract the attention and strict investigation of the central court. However, Huo Zhengyuan is still safe and sound. It is just that several of his followers suffered heavy casualties. It seems to be another accident. It cannot be regarded as a major event, and it will not cause any concern to the central government.  With attention, the impact of this accident can easily be reduced" Thinking of this, Guo Shouzhong relaxed a little and accelerated his pace before leaving. He needed to report the progress of the mission to Zhu Hejian as soon as possible and accept Zhu Hejian's commendation.  * In this world, everyone has their own ideas and positions. Even an insignificant person may flap his butterfly wings and change the direction of the situation. In short, everyone is a variable and no one can control it.  Everything. Not only Zhu Hejian, who has all the tricks, can't control everything, but even Zhou Shangjing, who is extremely resourceful and calculating, can't control everything. Any plan that seems to be taken for granted may be affected by some little person.  But compared to Zhu Hejian, Zhou Shangjing was more clever in that he was willing to face the impact of these variables and discovered the existence of Jiang Zheng in advance.  Jiang Zheng is a very independent young man who complements Huo Zhengyuan's personality and is likely to influence Huo Zhengyuan and change Huo Zhengyuan's thoughts and stance at a critical moment. However, Zhou Shangjing cannot calculate clearly the variable Jiang Zheng.  Whether it is good or bad for him. As for the seventh prince Zhu Hejian, he always ignores the existence of small people. For example, even Jiang Zheng, Zhao Junchen's staff and disciple of the great scholar Yang Xun, is still just a small person in Zhu Hejian's eyes.  It¡¯s trivial [Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books.

Zhu Hejian originally wanted to do so!  In order to use this "accident" to intimidate Huo Zhengyuan and shake Huo Zhengyuan's determination and will, so that Huo Zhengyuan would never dare to act without permission, Zhu Hejian was sure that he had achieved this intention when he saw Jiang Zheng and several followers.  There were heavy casualties, and Huo Zhengyuan was frightened on the spot. He was a smart man, and he also guessed that this "accident" might be someone plotting against him, but he did not intend to fight back, he only thought about self-protection, and then  That is to report the news to Zhao Junchen as soon as possible and let Zhao Junchen come forward to seek justice for him.  However, when Huo Zhengyuan heard Jiang Zheng's advice to him again before he passed out, and thought about Jiang Zheng's efforts to save him when he was in danger, he, who had always lacked courage, could not help but be infected and touched, and gradually  I have made up my mind and firm my stance!  After squatting on the spot and staring at Jiang Zheng's weak appearance after passing out, Huo Zhengyuan suddenly stood up and glanced at the nearby situation with a firm expression.  Because Huo Zhengyuan publicly revealed his identity, many people rushed to the area to help.  At the same time, Huo Zhengyuan's only follower named Huo Changle, who was lucky enough not to be seriously injured, also hurried to Huo Zhengyuan's side and asked about Huo Zhengyuan's physical condition with concern.  After Huo Zhengyuan took a deep breath, he announced loudly: "I am Huo Zhengyuan, a great scholar of the imperial court and envoy to the Southeast Patrol! The people obeyed the order and stayed where they were, waiting for the officials to come and investigate! You all?  You are a witness to this accident, and you are obliged to provide testimony to the government. If you are unwilling to cooperate with the government investigation, you are sheltering a criminal. If you are reported by someone afterwards, you will be punished for the crime of sheltering. But don¡¯t worry, I will be punished!  I promise with my own reputation that the government will never make things difficult for you after the investigation. As long as you cooperate with the government investigation, everyone can receive a reward of ten taels of silver from me. " Many people originally wanted to leave the scene in time, but they didn't!  After they heard Huo Zhengyuan's assurance, they still hesitated and stopped.??step.  But there are also many people who quietly speed up their departure.  After all, people in this era have almost no confidence in the credibility of the government.  Huo Zhengyuan knew very well that he was limited by the lack of manpower and could not control all the people to stay where they were and wait for the government to interrogate them.  Huo Zhengyuan also knew very well that if this "accident" was not just an accident, the real person behind the scenes must have left the scene long ago.  ¡°But Huo Zhengyuan still wants to keep as many witnesses as possible and investigate the truth as much as possible.  Afterwards, Huo Zhengyuan dragged Huo Changle, the follower who was luckily uninjured, to his side, and whispered in a serious tone: "Changle, the people around me have suffered heavy casualties now, and you are the only one who luckily has not been affected too much.  , so you have many and heavy tasks ahead, but you must handle them all properly!" Huo Changle nodded quickly and replied: "Please send me my instructions!" "First, rush to Dongyuan and send a message to Zhou Shoufu and Song Chengren on behalf of me.  Let them send all the famous doctors in the East Garden to rush here to treat the wounded. If Zhou Shoufu still wants to force all the famous doctors to stay in the East Garden, tell them that the 'Zhao Party' will do things on their own next.  , and will never cooperate with any actions of the 'Zhou Party' again! And no matter what Zhou Shoufu's response is, you have to leave directly. There is no need to stay in Dongyuan to wait for news, and then rush to our temporary residence in Nanjing City to ask Liu Zui for help!  There, Huo Yuanfu and Huo Yuanshou reported the news, asking Huo Yuanfu to come here immediately to join his official and wait for his orders. Huo Yuanshou, holding his official name in hand, immediately left Nanjing City and rushed to the Suzhou Governor's Yamen to report to Mr. Huangge.  Report the news! Let Huo Yuanshou tell Mr. Huang Ge by the way that I have made up my mind and will definitely implement the plan discussed with him last time. If he is still hesitant and unwilling to cooperate, it will affect him and the 'Zhao Party'  If there is no follow-up cooperation, the 'Zhao Party' will not support him to stay as governor of Nanzhili! Then tell Huo Yuanshou that when he arrives in Suzhou, he will summon all the people left in Suzhou and ask everyone to come to Nanjing immediately.  Meet up with me! After explaining Huo Yuanshou and Huo Yuanfu, you still can't be idle. You must contact Qian Lai, the boss of United Shipping Company in Nanjing City, as soon as possible and tell him not to do anything tonight.  Go to bed, and after I have dealt with the matter here, I will visit him overnight to discuss a major matter with him!" After hearing Huo Zhengyuan's solemn and continuous instructions, the attendant naturally did not dare to neglect and repeated the order.  After ensuring that the content was correct, he immediately turned around and ran away from Huo Zhengyuan quickly.  Huo Zhengyuan took a deep breath again, lowered his head and took a deep look at Jiang Zheng, who was seriously injured and was unconscious, and his expression became more determined.  Huo Zhengyuan is not a gentleman who repays kindness, but he is not an indifferent and pure villain either.  If conditions permit, he will still try his best to stick to some things.  ¡­ ¡­ PS: Second update.  ¡­¡­
