Chapter 454: People Before and After People

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, he turned around to leave, Jiang Zheng hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed him, "Virtuous son-in-law, the old man has a word of advice, I don't know if to say it or not?"

If it weren't for Jiang Nan standing next to him, Wu Zhongyuan really didn't want to listen to Jiang Zheng's nagging, what he didn't approve of the most was the bitter mouth of good medicine, and the bad words were against the ear, you must know that the bitter mouth and the bad ear themselves have a very heavy malice, and if they are really good to a person, they can be persuaded in a gentle way, and there is no need to say something ugly.

But if he didn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, Jiang Nan was there, he couldn't embarrass Jiang Zheng, so he had to ask casually, "What?"

Jiang Zheng said in a low voice, "You are still young, you don't know that people's hearts are sinister, as the saying goes, once a son of heaven is a courtier, the old people left by Wu Xi must not be promoted and appointed, the so-called past is not to blame, but you can't really do that." ”

Wu Zhongyuan didn't know what to call Jiang Zheng, so he simply omitted the title, "I also understand the reason, but now that the bear clan is employing people, if I expel them all, who will help me defend against foreign enemies?"

"What? you still want to drive them away?" Jiang Zheng sighed and shook his head, "As a king, you can't have the kindness of a woman, since you have obtained a lot of spiritual things, why don't you remove all the remnants of evil and plant another henchman?"

Wu Zhongyuan originally thought that Jiang Zheng was teaching him the experience of governing the country, but when he heard this, he tasted the taste, and it turned out that the old fox was going around in circles to inquire about the situation of the nine-leaf green lotus, and wanted to know how many lotus seeds he had in his hand.

"There are only a few lotus seeds, how can they be enough?" Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, and turned to Jiang Nan and said, "Okay, I have to go, I may live in Youxiong in the future, if there is anything, go to Youxiong to find me, and if I have to be free, I will also go to Lianshan to see you and Da Jiang." ”

"Be careful. Jiang Nan nodded.

Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand at Jiang Zheng, turned around and left, he once again learned the methods of this old fox, mercenary, digging pits for him everywhere, if he is not careful, he will have to fall into it, and he must always be careful when dealing with Jiang Zheng in the future.

After walking a few feet, he suddenly remembered that there were three wood spirit pills in his arms, this thing can avoid a hundred poisons, and he has been carrying it with him since he got it, and he has not had time to distribute it.

After a short period of silence, Wu Zhongyuan dispelled the idea of giving it to Jiang Nan, Jiang Nan is a member of the Niu clan and is good at the art of disambiguation, and this thing has little effect on her. This thing can avoid a hundred poisons, and it can be given to those purple qi masters who have not obtained lotus seeds in the future, so as not to favor one over the other and make them psychologically unbalanced, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the rights and obligations are also equal, it is a good thing that a hundred poisons do not invade, but if you encounter an opponent who is good at using poison in the future, or you need to go to a place where the poisonous gas lingers, these three subordinates who have obtained the wood spirit pill will have to bear the brunt of it.

Back in the morning hall, everyone stood up to greet them.

Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand at everyone, and then turned to Wu Tong and said, "Wu Tong Dongyuan, next I want to talk to you one by one, you are in charge of Daqiu, borrow a place to talk to me." ”

Wu Zhongyuan said, Wu Tong waved his hand in fear, "My lord's words are serious, all the cities of the Bear Clan are under the jurisdiction of Great Wu, and we and others are just ordered to take care of it, and Great Wu, the place of deliberation, can be appointed at will." ”

Before Wu Zhongyuan could answer, a black shadow suddenly flew in from outside the hall, and everyone was frightened at this time.

But they soon realized that they were too nervous, and that the black shadow that flew into the morning hall was a strange-looking gray bird, and it was not right to say that it was a gray bird, because it had white fur above its neck.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't expect the third master to come so quickly, but the time was about the same, this guy has been active in the area where the south and the north meet recently, and he had walked three times between the morning hall and the west gate, which would take more than an hour.

Just when Wu Zhongyuan was considering how to introduce the third master to everyone, the third master jumped and turned around from his shoulder, originally with his head facing south, but his head was facing north, "Oh, why are you pulling out your sword, you want to kill me?"

The crowd was already in shock, and when they heard it speak, they became more and more bewildered.

Wu Zhongyuan turned around, wanting to see who was drawing the sword, but after tilting his head, what he saw was the third master's bird buttocks, and in front of everyone, he couldn't pull the third master down. He was standing at the door now, with Wu Junyue sitting in the north, no matter who drew his sword, it was not to kill him, it was just an instinctive reaction under nervous tension.

"This is my servant, remember it, and if there is any urgent business in the future, I will send it to herald. Wu Zhongyuan turned around and said to everyone. He turned around, and the third master also turned around, the third master was a medium-sized bird, and when he jumped and turned around, his tail brushed Wu Zhongyuan's face again.

The crowd stood up and agreed.

Wu Zhongyuan left the morning hall with the third master, and after being away from everyone, he asked, "What is the reply from the gentleman?"

The third master is not a simple letter bird, it has lived for a long time, and it knows when to shout loudly and when to speak quietly, hearing Wu Zhongyuan's question, the third master approached Wu Zhongyuan's left ear and whispered, "Very good, very good, very good." ”

After waiting for a while, the third master continued to speak, and Wu Zhongyuan urged, "What else?"

"It's gone. The third master shook his head.

"Well, there you go. Wu Zhongyuan nodded, it could be seen that the old blind man was very happy, the old blind man had always hoped that he could unify the three clans, and retaking the bear clan was the most critical step, but anyone with a little insight knew that if you want to become a superpower, the first element is that the territory is vast, the bigger the territory, the more resistant to tossing, if the territory is too small, it will be destroyed after a few shots.

The third master may be in a hurry to do something, but this time he didn't talk to him anymore, flapped his wings and flew south.

Wu Zhongyuan suddenly remembered something, and shouted and asked, "Is there any progress in the things I told you before?"

"What's the matter?" the third master turned around.

"Nothing, let's go, let's go. Wu Zhongyuan frowned and waved his hand.

"Oh, looking for a beast with a phoenix tail and a dragon head, I looked for it, but I didn't find it. The third master said that, fluttered and flew away.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head helplessly, turned around and returned to the morning hall, and before he could speak, Wu Tong took the initiative to say, "Da Wu, there is a place in the east of the city......

Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand to interrupt Wu Tong's words, "Don't be so troublesome, just borrow the wing room of your mansion, go, you take me there." ”

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan had made up his mind, Wu Tong didn't dare to persuade him anymore, turned around and went first, leading the way.

Wu Zhongyuan turned back to everyone and said, "Don't move around at will, I'll invite everyone to drink after the conversation." ”

Wu Tong originally wanted to bring Wu Zhongyuan to the hall where he was handling official business, but Wu Zhongyuan didn't go, but chose a side room, and then ordered someone to send pen and ink.

As soon as the door closed, Wu Tong immediately fell to his knees and leaned over the ground.

He knew very well what he had done, as early as when Wu Zhongyuan went to Youxiong to take the bloodline test, he had interrogated Wu Zhongyuan harshly, and after learning that Wu Di was the bloodline of the Nine Yin, he echoed Wu Hongru and said that Wu Di was a natural pair with Wu Xi, and when Wu Zhongyuan went to Youxiong to rescue Wu Di, he sneered at Wu Zhongyuan, he couldn't forget these things, and Wu Zhongyuan naturally wouldn't forget.

Seeing Wu Tong kneeling, Wu Zhongyuan didn't help him, nor did he let him get up, and after groaning, he asked, "Do you recognize my father?"

"Yes. Wu Tong replied in a trembling voice, he was over the age of six, so he naturally recognized Wu Hao.

"Was my father mean to you when he was in power?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"The crimes of his subordinates deserve death, please punish Da Wu. Wu Tong trembled, the older he gets, the more he understands human nature, how can a person like Wu Zhongyuan not hold grudges, how can he not blame the past, the reckoning is just a matter of one day sooner or later.

Wu Zhongyuan raised his eyebrows and scolded, "You have lived so old for nothing? What kind of goods Wu Xi is, can't you see? Do you have dog eyes?"

Wu Tong trembled like chaff, where did he dare to answer.

"Have you been involved in the affairs of the Bai Lao Clan?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Wu Tong shook his head again and again.

"Have you been involved in the matter of Sand Castle and Wind Valley?" Wu Zhongyuan asked sharply.

Wu Tong saw sweat on his forehead and didn't dare to answer.

"Have you been involved in the affairs of the Foggy Mountains?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

Wu Tong leaned over the ground, silent.

"He has begun to attack his own people, and you are still loyal to him? Are you a warrior of the bear clan or a dog of Wu Xi?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a loud voice.

"Subordinates should be damned, subordinates should be damned. Wu Tong repeatedly confessed.

"Get up. Wu Zhongyuan said.

Wu Tong was frightened and didn't dare to get up.

Seeing him hesitating and grinding, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly kicked him down, "Get up, write down all Wu Xi's crimes to me, whoever gets close to him will also write it, one is counted as one, and you yourself have done anything to lack morality." ”

Wu Tong responded, got up in embarrassment, walked to the table and trembled with a hand-held pen, writing quickly, although he was nervous, he knew that he and his family's lives had been saved, as the saying goes, he was not afraid of the leader scolding, he was afraid of the leader praising him, if Wu Zhongyuan greeted him with a smile, his death was near.

"I'm giving you a chance, don't you know what's wrong," Wu Zhongyuan reprimanded loudly, "Just because you did those stinky things before, it's not too much to chop you." ”

"Yes, yes, subordinates are convicted, subordinates are convicted. Wu Tong wrote while wiping his sweat.

Wu Tong wrote quickly, one after another, and continued to write three or four in succession.

"It's almost okay, pick the important ones to write, and don't add trivial things. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Yes, yes, yes. Wu Tong raised his hand again to wipe his sweat.

After writing two or three more sheets, he gave up, put his hands on his hands, and bowed down to submit it.

Wu Zhongyuan took it with his backhand and looked at it at a glance, some things he knew, and some he didn't know, and he didn't have time to scrutinize it carefully for a while.

"How do you think I should punish you?" Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head and squinted.

Wu Tong knelt down again, waiting for the fall.

"I'm angry when I think of what you did before," Wu Zhongyuan slapped Wu Tong with his backhand, "You still want to kill me?"

Returning to the hand is another blow, "Are Wu Di and Wu Xi a natural pair?"

These two slaps were hit hard, although they didn't use aura, they used strength, Wu Tong saw blood at the corner of his mouth, and the palm prints on his cheeks were clearly visible.

"Subordinates are convicted, subordinates are convicted. Although the corners of Wu Tong's mouth were bleeding, there was no sweat on his forehead.

"Get up, go back and call Wu Rong to me. Wu Zhongyuan said.

When Wu Tong heard this, he hurriedly got up, bowed and retreated.

"Daqiu is an important border town of my bear clan, give me good care, if something goes wrong, only you ask. Wu Zhongyuan admonished.

Wu Tong was overjoyed when he heard this, knelt down in shame, and thanked him repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, go and call Wu Rong, remember to tell you to go down and rectify a banquet. Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand and said.

Wu Tong agreed, wiped his tears and got up, opened the door......
