Chapter 436: Straight to the point (Part 1)

"The so-called repetition must be brave. If the reward is not heavy, what is the meaning of the reward?" Yang Pan didn't care about this reward at all. There were countless martial arts secrets obtained from the Huanshi Water Pavilion and the Langhuan Jade Cave, and first-class martial arts are common.

First-class martial arts are useless in Yang Pan's eyes, but in the eyes of other martial arts people, it is an unattainable dream and a ladder to rise!

I don’t know how many martial arts people lack martial arts skills due to their background, qualifications and other reasons.

The monopoly of superior martial arts is a common problem in the martial arts world today. The court is also consciously collecting superior martial arts, but after collecting them, they will be secretly disclosed.

Therefore, most people in the martial arts world only know a few external skills and superficial breathing skills.

A first-class martial art, no matter which internal strength or martial arts, will make people in the martial arts world crazy.

Perhaps the middle and upper levels of that mysterious organization do not lack skills, but what about the lower levels?

It is difficult to guarantee that lower-level or even middle-level people will seek rewards and come out to report them?

"Sir, you are just brave." Li Yuanzong gave his thumbs up and praised.

"After a while, let's go to the Hua family to submit a message. Then tomorrow, we will go to the Hua family to explore the bottom." Yang Pan opened his mouth and ordered.

"Sir, why do you have to submit a prayer today and go tomorrow? Why don't we go to Hua's house tomorrow and submit a prayer again and give them a sudden attack." Li Yuanzong asked pretending to be confused.

Yang Pan could see at a glance that Li Yuanzong was deliberately praising him, but he did not expose it. In the officialdom, subordinates sometimes pretended to be confused when facing their superiors.

"I just want to prepare time for them. The Hua family is just a family that cannot recognize themselves. Do you really think that this era is still the era of aristocratic families?" Yang Pan said indifferently, and he was indeed thinking in his heart.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, culture and education were the most prosperous, and aristocratic families had long been overthrown by poor families.

Now is the era of scholars and officials, not the era of aristocratic families.

The era when aristocratic families monopolized the officialdom was long over. The Huang Chao Rebellion at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the troubles of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms had long been exhausted.

The rise of poor families, and in the current officialdom, there are no more than 20% of the senior officials of the third rank or above in the court.

――――――――――

In this era, nobles are stronger than noble families.

Besides, the Hua family was just a small family that survived by the Tang Dynasty, not a thousand-year-old family of the Five Clans and Qiwang.

When Yang Pan confirmed that there was indeed a problem with the Hua family, when Shangfang's sword arrived, he had the right to take action first and then report, Yang Pan could smooth out the Hua family alone.

Li Yuanzong really sent someone to hand over the post to the Hua family.

It takes more than one day to send a letter to the capital at the fastest. I have to wait for a reply there. I really don’t know how long it will take.

You can't stay there and do nothing.

The Hua family received a reply from Yang Pan.

The head of the Hua family led several clan elders and the family manager to hold a meeting to discuss how to receive this celebrity in the official family, the chief constable of the Six Gates.

"Today I received a visit from the doorman. It's not easy for those who come to visit tomorrow." The head of the Hua family said, "The visitor is the crossing river dragon on the official's face, the hero in front of the saint, and the chief constable Yang Pan of the Six Gates."

"The person from the Six Gates? The person who came was not kind!" said a clan elder cautiously.

"I believe you also know the origin of this Liusanmen Chief Constable. The descendant of the famous Yang family in the early Song Dynasty was highly valued by the emperor. He has a wide influence and connections in the nobles and the military, so he should not be underestimated." The head of the Hua family reminded.

"Everyone, let me tell you what I understand. In the world, this chief constable of the debater is not simple. He suppressed Shaolin and recruited the former leader of the Beggars' Sect, destroying the Murong family with one hand. The Green Forest Underworld was overwhelmed by him, and all major sects avoided their edge. They have great means and are powerful. It is not appropriate to confront him head-on." said a major manager in charge of the world.

"Head of the family, I don't understand. My Hua family and his six doors have never been connected. How could he think of visiting the Hua family?" asked an old clan who only cares about the family's internal affairs, "For no reason, he has no need to visit our house, right?"

In the Song Dynasty, foreign relatives led the royal relatives and their wealth could be guaranteed, but their influence was limited, and they were unable to interfere in the government affairs at all.

The second-rank high-ranking official of the Liushemen General Officer is simply the existence that the Hua family must look up to, and does not need to curry favor with the Hua family.

Therefore, it is an abnormal thing for the Six Gates General Officer to submit a letter to him.

That's why the head of the Hua family immediately held this meeting after receiving the message.

―――――――――――――――――――――

The head of the Hua family was not stupid. After savoring it, he immediately asked seriously: "Are you hiding something from the head of the family?"

"Head of the family, I once asked someone to teach Li Yuanzong a lesson, and almost destroyed him. Unfortunately, this person is not weak and has not achieved his full merit. It is very likely that Yang Pan came for this.":: Another clan elder who was in charge of the secret matters of the family spoke.

Aristocratic families are never purely bright. The bigger the aristocratic families, the more they are. There is light, there is darkness, which is inevitable.

"You guys go down first, I'll talk to Lao Qi." The head of the Hua family endured his temper and said with a calm face.

The group glanced at each other and then left the conference room silently.

The manager who walked at the end also gave the door thoughtfully.

The head of the Hua family immediately couldn't collapse. He suppressed his anger and asked hoarsely: "Are you crazy? Li Yuanzong is a fourth-grade god arrester from the Six Gate. You actually made someone attack the fourth-grade official. You are lawless. Do you want to kill our Hua family?"

No one is a mediocre person who can become the head of a family.

The head of the Hua family has a very good overall view and is very self-aware.

Although the Hua family is a large family in the Suzhou and Hangzhou area, it is also a rank of great families in the Central Plains.

However, compared with the imperial court, nothing is!

Attacking court officials, especially high-ranking officials above the fifth rank, would definitely violate the taboos of the court.

The officials above the halls are not all from aristocratic families, and more than 70% of them are from poor families.

Being from a poor family means that most people are pure scholars, do not understand martial arts, and have no ability to protect themselves.

It is entirely protected by the rules of the court.

If someone could kill high-ranking officials in the court at will, wouldn’t it be a mess?

At any time, no matter which court it is, the most taboo thing is to assassinate the imperial officials.

Regardless of the level, the court will be furious.

The officials above the halls would also hurt their species and counterattack frantically.

Because they do not react, it may be their turn to be threatened in the future.

―――――――――――――――――――――

Chapter 437: Straight to the point (Part 2)

"But the head of the family, Li Yuanzong, was investigating the case four years ago, and he had already found out about our Hua family. He had to get rid of it." This person also had sufficient reasons.

"Four years ago? That constable? Those people were really crazy. People from the public dared to touch them. There were so many mud legs outside but they just went to touch the people in the public. Isn't this a matter of nothing to find trouble?" The head of the Hua family remembered the case that caused sensation in Suzhou a few years ago. The whole family of the public was killed, and the entire public family moved. If the Hua family had not bribed the Suzhou prefect at the time and let the prefect suppress the case for political achievements and reputation, it would have been very likely that the case would have alarmed the Ministry of Justice.

"And you! The public constable four years ago, but the only small ninth-rank official was suppressed. But Li Yuanzong is now a fourth-rank official, and you dare to attack him? If you want to die, don't drag the entire Hua family to bury you!" The head of the Hua family was furious, "Now, you have provoked the Sixth-rank official. Why should you get rid of him as well? Should you rebel?"

The elder of the Hua family also woke up, but this concept has not changed.

The Six Gates are different from the ordinary yamen constable.

The constables at Liushemen are officials, while the constables at ordinary yamen are officials.

It's completely different things!

"The head of the family clearly understands, I really don't have the idea of ​​killing people. I just want to teach him a lesson." The old man immediately admitted his mistake.

"What's the use of saying this now? Who are you looking for? Is it possible to leak the news?" The head of the Hua family still has a demeanor and is still stable at critical moments.

"Don't worry, the head of the family is the one who takes action, and they are definitely trusting it. Only he and I know about this. I have known it for a long time and it is impossible for us to disclose it. It is our Hua family who takes action." The elder of the seven clan replied with great certainty.

The expression on the head of the Hua family really relaxed. Fortunately, things were not at all possible.

"Notify that person and tell him not to make any noise in the past six months and hide in the secret place of the family." The head of the Hua family nodded.

As long as there is no evidence or witnesses, no one can explain this kind of thing.

The Hua family is a royal relative, and no one dares to do anything randomly without evidence.

―――――――――――――――――――――

The next day, Yang Pan took Li Yuanzong and several Liusanmen Constable Jin Zhang to visit.

The head of the Hua family personally opened the middle door to welcome Yang Pan.

For the so-called high-door and large-scale households, the threshold for the middle door is indeed not low. Usually, the middle door is not open. On the one hand, it is inconvenient to enter and exit, and on the other hand, it does not comply with the rules. Only when the distinguished guests come will they open the middle door to welcome guests. This is etiquette.

"Hahaha... I heard about Lord Yang's reputation for a long time. When I saw him today, it was indeed worthy of his reputation." The head of the Hua family is nearly 60 years old, but he has taken good care of it and seems to have practiced a kind of health preservation and breathing technique.

The internal strength is shallow, but full of vitality.

"Brother Hua is so polite. Yang is just a rough man." Yang Pan said with a smile.

He is said to be a rough man, and his words and deeds are all the demeanor of a noble family.

The temperament of a nobleman cannot be pretended at all, it must be developed from childhood.

"Please come in, Lord Yang." The head of the Hua family looked at Yang Pan carefully and sighed in his heart, what a handsome young man from a noble family.

Yang Pan was wearing casual clothes, without official uniforms, and wearing white young master's uniform. When he was wearing them, his nobleness could not be concealed.

The group entered the hall of Hua's home.

After the people of the Hua family served tea, they respectfully retreated.

The head of the Hua family introduced the main members of the Hua family, mainly his sons and outstanding grandsons.

"Boss Hua has a successor, it's so envious." Yang Pan politely flattered the two.
