Chapter 136: Crack down on gangsters and eliminate evil
Now that Master Guo has made his stance clear, things will be much simpler from here on out.
Hua Manlou originally intended to take his leave, but Guo Juxia dragged him away and made him stay.
After a round of routine pleasantries, they began to inquire about Hua Manlou's personal situation.
Upon hearing that Hua Manlou was still single, Guo Juxia smiled broadly.
Then things started to go a bit off. As the topic of Guo Juxia gradually veered off course, Hua Manlou found it difficult to maintain his gentlemanly persona.
To be honest, he had some contact with Guo Furong when he was a child, and they could be considered childhood sweethearts.
If there were romantic feelings between the two, they would have already developed them; there would be no need for Guo Juxia to act as a matchmaker.
In Hua Manlou's view, Guo Furong has a straightforward personality, although she sometimes acts like a spoiled young lady.
However, he is fundamentally kind. Despite his family background, he doesn't spend his days thinking about how to bully others like other second-generation rich kids, which already puts him ahead of most people.
Moreover, he often helps poor people, although he often does more harm than good due to his lack of experience, which makes everyone laugh and cry.
Unfortunately, Guo Furong wasn't his type.
After all, Guo Furong only wanted to roam the martial arts world and make the great hero Guo proud.
What he seeks is someone who can watch the clouds drift by with him and spend a peaceful and ordinary life with him.
Although a life of mediocrity seemed far removed from his family background, this was his most genuine thought.
Therefore, in his heart, he only regarded Guo Furong as an immature little sister.
However, he also knew that Guo Furong had run away from home and was no longer in the capital, so it was purely Guo Juxia's one-sided enthusiasm.
However, he couldn't very well refuse Guo Juxia's kindness, so he could only smile and nod in response. He wasn't the kind of person who would make someone lose face.
Guo Juxia was quite satisfied with Hua Manlou's performance. After all, since Hua Manlou hadn't directly refused, there was still a chance, right?
Looks like I need to hurry up and find that brat to bring her back. I can't let such a good son-in-law fly away.
Speaking of which, Fu'er is really something, giving up a life of luxury.
He insisted on learning to make his own way in the world, and now he's drowning in debt. He's much more obedient now, just wiping tables and sweeping floors for others every day.
Besides, what were his conditions when he ventured into the martial arts world? He lost both his parents at a young age and lived in abject poverty. He had no choice but to make his way in the martial arts world to achieve success!
After finally finding a good mentor and achieving some success, this little brat still doesn't want it.
If it were me back then, and I had such an opportunity, I would have knelt down and begged to take care of the person in their old age and see them off in their final days.
Both of them had their own agendas. After chatting for a short while, Hua Manlou made an excuse that he still had things to do, said goodbye to Guo Juxia, and got up to leave.
Watching Hua Manlou's departing figure, a smile flickered across Guo Juxia's lips.
I've often heard people say that mothers-in-law are more and more satisfied with their sons-in-law the more they look at them. How come it's the father-in-law who's more and more satisfied with his son-in-law the more he looks at him?
After a long while, Guo Juxia slowly withdrew his gaze and looked again at the secret report that had come to him. He had been thinking about how to deal with it before Hua Manlou arrived.
Now I've finally made up my mind. When did I become so indecisive? I'm a Grandmaster!
"Hehe, it seems that I, Guo Bujing, haven't killed anyone in a long time, and people have forgotten how I became the chief constable of the Six Doors!"
"How dare someone defy me! First they messed with my daughter, then they tried to infiltrate the Six Doors (a government agency). Are they testing my limits?!"
Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Guo Juxia's eyes. It seemed he had to make a move, otherwise all sorts of demons and monsters would jump out.
Guo Juxia immediately shouted outside, "Someone come here!"
With his call, several figures appeared out of thin air in the courtyard and then stepped in.
Inside the room, the four men were all at the late stage of the Innate Realm, dressed in black outfits with long swords at their waists, quite different from ordinary constables from the Six Doors. They then bowed to Guo Juxia in unison.
"What are your orders, Chief Constable?"
Looking at the group of people he had personally trained, each of them was an elite among the elites of the Six Doors. Their late-stage Innate Realm cultivation would make them powerful figures in the martial arts world!
He nodded in satisfaction, then said in a deep voice, "Recently, there have been many cases of martial arts figures showing contempt for the imperial court, which has angered His Majesty the Emperor!"
Therefore, effective immediately, this chief constable has decided to launch a special operation to crack down on organized crime and eliminate evil forces nationwide, with a particular focus on combating all kinds of illegal gangsters!
Regardless of background or martial arts skills, arrest them if necessary!
If one constable can't catch them, then two! If two can't catch them, then report to headquarters and request the assistance of the Four Great Constables. If even the Four Great Constables can't handle it, then I will personally take action!
"An crackdown on organized crime? Underworld figures? Taking action personally?"
Those three simple words were deafening; none of the people present were fools. Upon hearing them, they instantly knew the Chief Constable was truly angry.
He even said he would take action himself, what kind of criminal would require the help of a grandmaster!
"Your Majesty is wise! Chief Constable's insight is brilliant!"
However, forgive our ignorance, but we are unaware of the key areas targeted in this campaign against evil. We humbly request the Chief Constable's guidance!
"Ok?"
A hint of appreciation flashed in Guo Juxia's eyes. As expected of the soldiers he had trained, they could understand his unspoken meaning.
However, it's still necessary to say the polite words and offer a slight hint; the rest is up to the subordinates to understand.
"It's a priority nationwide! But it's of utmost importance..."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "I've recently heard that the Flying Knife Sect, the Heavenly Crippled Sect, the Five Poisons Sect, and other five major underworld families are the most rampant in their dealings, completely disregarding the laws of the imperial court!"
This is what enraged the Emperor! Of course, I've only heard about it...
"Chief Constable, there's no need for further words. We understand!"
Everyone instantly understood and said in unison.
As we all know, sometimes whether something is done well or poorly depends entirely on a leader's word.
For example, if you don't catch the key points when your leader is speaking, then even if you do your job perfectly, it's just expected. If you mess it up, you might even get scolded!
But if you understand the key points and do this job well, then things will be very different. What leader wouldn't want a reliable and considerate subordinate?
The focus of this crackdown on organized crime is very clear: it targets three of the five major criminal families!
As for the other two families, they're just extras; otherwise, the target of this crackdown on organized crime would be too clear.
But it doesn't matter. The five major underworld families are considered some kind of people, but compared to the Six Doors, one of the three major violent agencies of the Ming Dynasty, what are they?
If they don't skin the five major underworld families alive this time, they're not worthy of the name Six Doors!
When it comes to playing dirty tricks, who can outmaneuver our imperial court?
