Chapter 1157: Reversing Black and White (Five Watches)
"King Liang is quite jealous of this, and specially sent his henchmen to investigate, and by the way, remove me, a person from Xia Qingchen's faction, in case I take the opportunity to make trouble. ”
Qiu Wanjin understood the truth and sighed deeply: "Since ancient times, the most feared person by the king is the master of high merit, and Gongzi Xia is not only highly meritorious, but also has a prestige far superior to him in southern Xinjiang. ”
"If King Liang is a Ming king, but he has never been a king with the capacity to accommodate people, so it's strange if he doesn't send someone to investigate. ”
He couldn't help but regret that he had invited Xia Qingchen to the Chamber of Commerce, causing him such a huge trouble.
"Hey, we're causing trouble for Mr. Xia again. Wu Xiong sighed, he had no intention of paying attention to his position, and was more worried about Xia Qingchen.
The relationship between him and King Liang was not very harmonious, and now there is a thing where the people of southern Xinjiang worship him and regard him as a god, but I am afraid that the gap between him and King Liang will become bigger and bigger.
While he was sighing, the butler at the door hurriedly ran over: "My lord, it's not good, a person who claims to be a servant of the envoy has come to inform me that the envoy is coming." ”
Wu Xiong's expression was flat, and he was already mentally prepared: "I'll go to greet him." ”
Accompanied by his wife and daughter, Qiu Wanjin, they came to the door of the mansion and waited silently for the envoy to arrive.
When they waited, it was two hours.
The pouring rain was intermittent, and the cold air blowing in the rain made their faces stiff, and even more cold in their hearts.
Dada——
Until the sound of horses' hooves broke the dull rain curtain, several bright horses burst in, and behind the horses, there were a line of tall guards, holding high white umbrellas, drenched in the pouring rain.
The escort line is lined up from the end of the line of sight to the entrance of the house.
"Greetings, my lord!" they shouted in unison.
At the end of the line of sight, in a large sedan chair carried by eighteen people, an old man in gray clothes walked down with a dusty hand in his hand, with an extraordinary bearing, but his cheeks were thin and slightly mean.
He walked under the road made of umbrellas with handles, and came to the gate of the house without a single rain.
Wu Xiong immediately knelt down on one knee: "The last general, Wu Xiong, greet Lord Cicada Daozi." ”
The one who came was the henchman of King Liang, Cicada Daozi.
Immortal Demon City, he once forced the Yunlan War Group to return to the team, and ordered the execution of all the people in the Yunlan War Group.
Now, he once again took the king's order and came to Tiannan City, the capital of southern Xinjiang.
"Wu Xiong takes the order!" Cicada Daozi took out a scroll and announced: "Wu Xiong, as a general, colluded with local merchants, persecuted competitors, disrupted local order, and caused public resentment to boil. ”
Wu Xiong's heart was cold, a little sad, a little sad, and a little resentful.
What does it mean that he colludes with local merchants and persecuts competitors?
Who did he persecute?
Even the Wu family, who drove them away back then, he never persecuted them, as for the so-called boiling of public resentment, he only saw the local business forces, and they were convinced and cooperated with them.
Where did the people's grievances come from, and where did the boiling come from?
Is King Liang blind? Without ascertaining the facts, he arbitrarily deprives a soldier of his lifelong pursuit and writes off his dedication to the military palace for more than ten years?
His fists clenched, and he silently took the scroll.
His heart is dead.
As early as when Xia Qingchen was treated unfairly, he shouldn't have any expectations for King Liang.
That kind of faint king never gives people hope.
"The last will take the order. Wu Xiong said silently, extremely depressed.
Cicada Daozi said indifferently: "Wu Xiong, Originally, King Liang wanted to ask you about your crimes, but because Poor Dao said good things for you, he was only given a lighter punishment for dismissal, you have to thank Poor Dao." ”
Wu Xiong smiled bitterly, he hoped that King Liang would ask him for the blame, and only in this way would he investigate thoroughly.
And as long as it is thoroughly investigated, it can prove his innocence.
However, King Liang didn't even check, and the villain was convinced of a few words of casual slander, and directly dismissed him.
"Thank you. Wu Xiong said lightly.
He knew that Cicada Daozi didn't say anything good at all, and even those slanderous rumors were all said by Cicada Daozi, but the other party's status was too high, and he had no evidence, so he couldn't clash head-on at all.
"How do you want to thank you?" Cicada Daozi said shamelessly: "In this way, I will reluctantly make it difficult for you, and be a peacemaker, how about it?"
Peacemaker?
But seeing the cicada Daozi clapped his palms, two people in robes came in the rain, and they took off their hats and revealed themselves.
Those are not others, they are Wu Kun, Wu Yan and his son.
"Is that you?" Wu Xiong's eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes showed coldness: "What are you doing here?"
Cicada Daozi said with kind eyebrows: "The so-called grievances should be resolved rather than settled, and the poor Dao will make a peace for the two of you today to resolve grievances for many years." ”
Wu Xiong was disgusted, it was too inappropriate for outsiders to participate in their family's internal affairs.
However, whoever makes the family have a high status, he can only hide his dissatisfaction in his heart, and refuses politely: "The adults are kind to the people, but we can solve our own affairs." ”
Cicada Daozi suddenly stiffened his face, with a look of displeasure: "What's the matter, Poor Dao is not qualified enough to make peace with the two of you?"
Saying peace is based on the willingness of both sides, how can there be such coercion to say peace?
Wu Xiong clenched his fists: "The grass people don't dare!"
"Hmph! Poor Dao Jinkou Yuyan, others want me to make peace, I don't bother to pay attention to it, you are good, and you still push back!" Cicada Daozi pulled up his sleeve robe and said: "That's good, Poor Dao stands in a fair perspective, makes peace for you, and ensures that both of you are satisfied." ”
Having said so much, Wu Xiong could only listen.
Cicada Daozi twisted his beard and said: "As I understand, the reason for your conflict at the beginning was that Wu Xiong privately organized a caravan to go to Lounan to purchase, and during this period, despite the repeated opposition of the family, it finally caused a tragedy, the clansmen died tragically, and the goods were robbed, right?"
Wu Xiong was silent, and on the surface, this was indeed the case.
However, Wu Xiong still felt that it was too much of a coincidence that he was plundered by the traitorous wolf thieves, as if the information of the caravan was grasped by the traitorous wolf thieves, and he ambushed them with great accuracy.
However, there is no evidence for this matter, he can only bury it in his heart, and no one has said it.
"To solve this matter, it is easy to do, you Wu Xiong compensate the Wu family in the north of the city for all the lost property at the beginning, and apologize to the current head of the family, Wu Kun. Cicada Daozi said.
"It's really a bit unreasonable that you killed so many clansmen, but you still don't apologize to the clan!" Cicada Daozi turned to look at Wu Kun: "After so many years, you are also generous and accept his apology, understand?"
The corners of Wu Kun's mouth hooked the corners of his mouth with a smile, pretending to be tolerant: "If Wu Xiong sincerely repents, it's not that he can't forgive him." ”
Forgive?
Wu Xiong's face was full of anger, what kind of persuasion, it was clearly a favoritism!!
Regardless of the property lost at the beginning, Wu Kun got it back, and the family did not lose much wealth substantially.
This apology alone is nonsense!
At the beginning, Wu Xiong's family was rudely kicked out, and they didn't even give a chance to explain and save, so that their family lived on the streets, and it was the Wu family who should apologize!
He didn't trouble the Wu family, but the Wu family invited Cicada Daozi to support him and ask him to apologize?
Is there any heavenly reason in the world, and is there still a royal law in the cool realm? (12 noon tomorrow and two watches)
