great mandate

Luo Jinyu immediately wanted to ask clearly: "What is this going to do—"

"Duke Shen," Jun Tianci interrupted Luo Jinyu, looked at Shen Wuji, and said calmly, "To tell you the truth, I have another purpose for this trip, which is to test medicine. Try the antidote."

Shen Wuji's expression finally became solemn.

This is a very rare look on his face.

He even regretted that he didn't transfer Luo Jinyu out along with Wang Jiawang.

Luo Jinyu shouldn't listen to such secret matters.

It's not because this matter is so secretive, but because it's too scary, Luo Jinyu will definitely object, and this objection is likely to bring Luo Jinyu's death.

Shen Wuji once heard Cao Guozhong secretly reveal a few words, saying that Jun Tian bestowed the late Emperor's favor and trust, and he shouldered the heavy responsibility of an extremely important secret.

At that time, Shen Wuji was Cao Guozhong's most important cadre, and he could almost say that he knew everything without saying anything, but regarding this matter, Cao Guozhong was uncharacteristically tight-lipped, and only said that this matter could not be done with their relationship with the Li Supervisor East Factory.

Looking at it now, it refers to the fact that Jun Tianci secretly refined the city-killing poison in the Yangyi Department.

Although Luo Jinyu didn't know many secret tricks inside and outside the court, but he was a smart person, after a little thought, he had already connected the front and back, and had a guess, so he asked, "Do you want to use Meizhen to test the medicine?"

Jun Tianci neither admitted nor denied, ignoring Luo Jinyu's existence, and only looked at Shen Wuji.

Knowing the depth of the matter, Shen Wuji hurriedly grabbed Luo Jinyu, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I won't." He looked at Jun Tianci again, wanted to speak, but stopped, frowning, a little hesitant.

It was Shen Wuji who was before falling in love with Luo Jinyu. Although he seemed vicious and domineering, he also had a heart of justice in his heart. Otherwise, he would not always take the risk of letting Cao Guozhong want to kill him when he was trying his luck under Cao Guozhong's seat. Innocent Zhongliang.

Not to mention Shen Wuji who is "taught by Luo Jinyu" now.

He also detests the stink of people's hearts in Meizhen, but no matter what, it's still...

Shen Wuji thought for a while, put on a smile that couldn't be more hypocritical, and asked gently: "May I ask Mr. Xiaojun, is it because the Yangyi Department has no backup for you that you value the bottle of medicine intercepted by Dongchang so much?"

Jun Tianci smiled and said: "Mr. Shen, there is no need to inquire. I will tell you bluntly, yes, this is the only one. This medicine is highly toxic, and I don't know whether the antidote is effective. How dare I make more. I will give out one copy." Can't make the difference."

Shen Wuji changed his mind, and said: "Since that's the case, our family can't return it to the Yangyi Department."

"Mr. Shen, I advise you not to do this." Jun Tianci was still very calm, and said, "If you don't return this thing, it's a big deal. It's not easy for the Yangyi Department to make another one, but it's just a picture of a gourd. It’s just a scoop, it will take some time at most. But for you, Yu Dongchang, and Mr. He, it’s not easy to deal with the emperor. If something happens due to this poison, the Yangyi Department will not be responsible alone , I have to get Dongchang together, why do you have to do this loss-making business. Why don’t you pay it back to me, and if something happens because of the poison in the future, it has nothing to do with you Shengong Dongchang’s director of etiquette.”

Luo Jinyu has long been displeased with his seemingly humble but extremely arrogant face, and now knowing that he has such crazy thoughts, he is even more furious, and was about to refute, but Shen Wuji took a step ahead.

I saw that Shen Wuji restrained the warmth of the lotus on his face in an instant, raised his chin slightly, let out a "hum", and said very proudly: "Why in the eyes of Lord Xiaojun, our family can't bear the responsibility?"

Luo Jinyu stared blankly and looked at him.

It's not that Shen Wuji and Jun Tianci are the same kind of people, it's just that Shen Wuji's daily performance will inevitably make Luo Jinyu feel that Shen Wuji loves both ways and is good at officialdom's unspoken rules, just like how he treated Meizhen at the beginning. Shen Wuji felt that it would be better to turn big things into small things. Later, Jun Tianci came, and Shen Wuji tried to avoid conflicts as much as possible, so as not to conflict with the holy will.

But at this moment, Shen Wuji's words seemed to be...

Jun Tianci was also slightly taken aback, then narrowed his eyes, and asked slowly: "What does Mr. Shen mean, that you will never pay it back?"

"Heh," Shen Wuji sneered, "Master Xiaojun, how have you ever heard that there is a reason for others to take back what is in Dongchang's hands?"

Jun Tianci chuckled, and said: "When Cao Guozhong took control of the East Factory, he really wanted to not go back. But I don't know if it's because of this...he is not here now."

This is a threat.

How could Shen Wuji be easily threatened?

In other words, with his temperament, if he begs for mercy from his weakness, he might be able to show a little more face, but if he threatens him, then he will definitely become more and more awe-inspiring.

At this moment, he looked at Jun Tianci, and said with a sneer, "Your Majesty is wrong. Everyone knows that Cao Guozhong's downfall was caused by our family. Just send him away."

The four eyes met, for a while, the room was silent, no one was moving, but it was as if there was a flash of swords and swords, and the battle was handed over.After a while, Jun Tianci looked away, and said calmly: "I always thought that there are many mediocre people in Chaozhong, and Yu Huailiang is already old, but Mr. Shen made me think that young talents make me think highly of them, but unexpectedly...it's a pity. It seems Jun can't make this friend anymore."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Jinyu said in her heart that different ways do not work together——

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong," Shen Wuji suddenly laughed again, and said affectionately, "It's not right for people, one thing is another thing, they are all officials in the court, and they are all doing things for the royal family. Disputes are inevitable, so why say so decisively. The young gentleman is a talented person, our family has admired him for a long time, and we will have to move around more in the future."

Luo Jinyu: "..."

Not to mention Luo Jinyu, even Jun Tianci couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, secretly thinking that Shen Wuji is really better than meeting rumors, turning his face is faster than turning a book, face-saving and such, on him, it seems that even half a copper coin is not worth it s things.

But he immediately became vigilant again.

The more such a person is, the more difficult it is to deal with.

Such a person is like a centipede who is dead but not stiff, but as long as there is a trace of vitality left, he will be able to find a chance to survive under the precipitous cliff.

For the time being, the matter of Yangyi Department was like this, Shen Wuji and Jun Tianci had a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned it again.

Luo Jinyu wanted to get to the bottom of it, but she also knew that this was not the right time. Now there is only one bottle of the poison, which is already in Dongchang's hands. At least there is no threat for the time being, so she also didn't say anything.

The three of them had their own thoughts, but reached a wordless consensus, and the next step was to solve the matter of Meizhen.

In fact, the matter of Meizhen has become a foregone conclusion.

Taking advantage of the "violence" in Mei Town as an excuse, Shen Wuji sent troops to station in the city, and designated the town as a wartime management area.The townspeople were split apart, without the clan gathering to take the lead, locked at home, and gradually panicked.

At this time, Shen Wuji asked Luo Jinyu to write a "Pleasure Letter" with his own handwriting, and asked those with loud voices to read it on the streets.

This letter is simple and detailed, and it is nothing more than reprimanding the townspeople for their belief in evil gods, accomplices to murder, and greed for unknown stolen goods. Turn around, saying that this matter caused riots, which shocked the government and the public even more. The emperor issued an order to strictly investigate and punish the nine clans.

It's about life, the townspeople dare not listen, they hurried to the cracks in the doors and windows, pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

Next, the topic changed again, saying that since ancient times, the law does not blame the public...

When the townspeople heard this, they were a little relieved, and whispered to their families: That's the reason, we didn't do anything, and we didn't kill people, we just picked up some unowned money on the street...

The outside continued, although it is said that the law does not blame the public, but in the end, human life is at stake, and everyone in Meizhen is suspected of covering up, so they can not be blamed, but it depends on the performance.

As for this performance, it is to find out the real culprit.

Those who embezzled the stolen money may not be returned, and the crime of covering up may not be prosecuted, but the culprits who induce the people to commit such a crime without conscience have to be prosecuted!The crime of this matter lies with those chief culprits!

When the townspeople heard this, they continued to whisper: This is exactly the reason!We didn't say anything, and those who took the lead were doing things.

Keep listening, keep talking outside.

The topic changed, and I talked about those culprits again, saying that they colluded with cults, pretended to be gods and tricked ghosts, developed congregants, fooled the townspeople, and secretly made money...

When the townspeople heard this, they realized there was such a thing!

I thought I was taking advantage of it, but unexpectedly, the sesame and mung beans I picked up, but others hugged mountains of gold and silver, and they were secretly having fun!To be fooled by them as gunmen and fools!Why?

As the saying goes, don't worry about being few, but worry about unevenness!

Very angry!Very angry!

In the end, it was said outside that tomorrow they would go to the river to retrieve the corpses and thoroughly investigate the case. If anyone reported any clues, they were indeed conscientious and would be praised and rewarded.And the sooner everything is found out, the sooner Meizhen withdraws its troops and unblocks it.

In this way, how could the townspeople have any other thoughts, all the small families were discussing in the room, thinking about it, and they all felt that they should be the conscientious people, so that those murderers with bad hearts will be punished as soon as possible, and they will be rehabilitated as soon as possible. Mei Town is warm and peaceful, and we asked Eunuch Shen and the imperial envoy to evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise the high officials would stay here for a day, and everyone didn't know if they would suddenly come up with another incident, and they were always uneasy.

——As the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night.And these people, more or less, are guilty.

Although they don't recognize it at the moment, in their hearts, they are actually clearer than anyone else.

Even though they did not commit murder with their own hands, even though they were not the ones who took the lead, at certain times and on certain matters, it is also a crime to stand on the sidelines, have nothing to do with themselves, and hang on high.

Selfishness and greed are sins;

Fluke and blind obedience are sins;

Ignorance and indifference are sins.

Or a crime that cannot be ruled by the laws of the country, but it is still the original sin of being a living person of flesh and blood.

The reason why people are human and not beasts is that they have morality, know etiquette, and understand things. People should not live just to eat, drink, play, reproduce and enjoy, but to pursue justice and ideals, to cultivate themselves, and to rule the world.

It's not that only being an official can govern the world, but that if one day, everyone in the world can self-govern, there will be no need for an official, and there will be peace and prosperity.Therefore, regardless of whether it is a scholar, a farmer, a businessman, or a farmer of the royal family, everyone should know right and wrong, and everyone should be self-governing.
