Quick Wear: Under the Skirt, All Beings Are Equal

Chapter 442: The Traitor: Bright Moon, Drinking Alone in the Autumn

Although they disliked the treacherous minister Tang Ran, they disliked their enemies even more.

After hearing the whole story, Tang Ran couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead.

Could this be high-end intelligence, which often takes the simplest approach? The night watchman emphasized his position several times, saying that he was not helping Tang Ran find someone for money, but simply as an ordinary citizen of Northern Qi.

From what I said, I am not helping the treacherous officials.

Tang Ran has always been open-minded about these things, and was even quite happy that the people of Northern Qi would not abandon their country just because they had opinions about him.

He immediately sent people to Xinghua Lane and quickly captured Xu Shenjian.

Tang Ran also asked someone to check who owned the courtyard they lived in. When he found out that it belonged to an official he had promoted himself, he was furious. His eyes were cold and he ordered the house to be confiscated and the official to be executed.

No wonder I couldn’t find it after searching for so many days. I didn’t expect it to be right under my nose.

Xu Jianshen thought so too. Now he couldn’t leave the capital, and the most dangerous place was the safest.

When he saw the person he had rescued with great difficulty, even though the face was the same, he recognized at a glance that this was not his junior brother.

He had already guessed that Zhou Wenye was dead, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes. Thinking of his current situation, he became even more sad.

But Xu Jianshen didn't expect that even though he had repeatedly warned everyone to wait until the storm was over, there were still people who pretended to obey and secretly ran away.

So until he was caught in the cellar, Xu Jianshen couldn't figure out how the other party knew he was there.

Unlike Zhou Wenye, who was a pure civil official, Xu Shenjian had martial arts skills, but he had never used them in front of others for many years. He took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, killed the two people who were holding him down, and escaped.

Fortunately, Tang Ran was more careful and asked someone to bring a few more martial arts masters over.

Gui Tangzong kicked Xu Jianshen to the ground, then crippled his martial arts with his hands, and then left leisurely.

The leader wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and bowed to Gui Tang Zong: "Thank you for your help, young man."

Under such heavy siege, if Xu Jianshen slipped away under his nose, the Prime Minister would have to take off his head and use it as a urinal.

Gui Tangzong glanced at him and went to drink with a cheerful step.

The reason why he took action was simple: the money given by the Prime Minister was enough.

Gui Tangzong was quite curious about Tang Ran, and was thinking about visiting the Prime Minister's Mansion at night to see what this famous Prime Minister did on a daily basis.

Guitang Zong is an interesting person.

It can be said that in the capital, the person with the worst reputation is Tang Ran, and the second worst is the prince Guitangzong.

His ancestors followed the founding emperor of Northern Qi to build the country and were among the three highest officials. They had begun to decline as early as the time of the previous emperor. However, this young prince Guitangzong was very interesting. He used to follow the dandy son of Prince Ning to steal, fight, and molest decent women. He never missed a single thing.

By the end, it had reached the point where people hated it and dogs despised it.

His father died early and his mother was weak in nature. His grandmother gritted her teeth and felt that she could not let the only child in the family die like this, so she used her connections to send Guitangzong to the military camp for training.

Gui Tangzong was a spoiled child and could not endure such hardship. He sent many letters back home, begging his grandmother to let him come back.

But the old man was determined not to let him bring shame to the reputation of his ancestors. Not to mention doing something earth-shattering, at least he shouldn't be so absurd.

Seeing that his grandmother was unwilling to give in, Gui Tangzong felt a little resentful and ran to the border in anger. He did not come back for six years.

Unexpectedly, when I came back this time, I happened to meet the Prime Minister who was spending a lot of money to recruit martial arts masters.

At night, the bright moonlight fell, the sky was dotted with cold stars, and the whole Bianliang City was quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs.

After Tang Ran finished washing up, he looked at the official documents lazily. He heard a slight sound of footsteps on tiles coming from above the room. His hand holding the document paused slightly, wondering calmly who the person was who was so bold as to sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion at night.

Gui Tangzong was full of curiosity about Tang Ran. He could see Tang Ran's appearance clearly through the cracks in the tiles. He looked to be a few years younger than himself, with a childish look, clear eyebrows and eyes. His thin white fingers held a pen, and from time to time he circled the words on the official documents and wrote notes next to them.

This is the famous Tang Ran.

He looks very young, how could he do such immoral things.

Or maybe I guessed wrong, and this is the canary that the Prime Minister keeps at home, and it does look quite pretty.

But in terms of good looks, she is barely one-third as good as me.

He was so absorbed in his wild thoughts that Gui Tangzong felt his eyes blur and the tile he had gently lifted up shattered in an instant. By the time he reacted and wanted to dodge, he had already fallen down at an uncontrollable speed, hitting the ground with the sound of tiles breaking.

"Oh my god."

He groaned and stood up, supporting his waist with his hands, and from time to time rubbed his butt that was almost broken into eight pieces, and faced Tang Ran in an extremely funny posture.

I am most afraid of the sudden awkwardness in the atmosphere.

Gui Tangzong opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out. He held back all the dirty words in his heart, and then forced a seemingly kind smile on his face.

"My Lord Prime Minister, I said I am not an assassin, do you believe me?"

"Sir, are you okay?"

Tang Ran said nothing and waved his hand gently, and all the guards who had just rushed in retreated.

Gui Tangzong's eyes lit up, and he continued, "I was just saying that I ate too much tonight and was taking a walk, when I suddenly remembered the Prime Minister's name. My admiration for you is endless, like the Yangtze River flowing eastward, so I was bewildered and ran to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Although his words were full of flattery, his eyes were very clear. Tang Ran was tired from dealing with government affairs, so she just listened to his nonsense quietly.

He was very curious about one thing: did he look like a fool?

This brother doesn't even find a better excuse to fool me, or is it that in the eyes of outsiders, I just love to listen to those flattering words.

In fact, no matter what the situation is, Tang Ran would not take it to heart. Sometimes he was very bored and needed something to kill time and relieve boredom.

Obviously, the current Guitang Sect plays this role.

Guitang Zong didn't care whether Tang Ran believed it or not. As he kept praising Tang Ran, he started to praise himself and became narcissistic.

He also saw it, and of course he had no intention of killing himself.

Gui Tangzong couldn't help but move closer and asked in a low voice: "Prime Minister, do you know martial arts?"

Tang Ran: "..."

"I just looked around and it doesn't look like your house has been used for a long time. It's too rotten to support me lying on it. And the place where I broke first seemed to have been deliberately broken by someone."

"Prime Minister, you know martial arts, right?"

Tang Ran did not comment, and looked at Gui Tang Zong with a smile: "Why are you asking this? Whether I know martial arts or not does not affect my desire to kill you. It is as easy as crushing an ant. It is a piece of cake."

Gui Tangzong frowned and said, "How can you say I am an ant? Have you ever seen an ant that looks so handsome and powerful?"

He knew that Tang Ran was not joking. There were several powerful auras outside the house and on the roof. Their martial arts were definitely better than his. If he dared to do anything that was detrimental to Tang Ran, he would definitely be killed by those people before he even touched Tang Ran.
