Chapter 339: Present convincing evidence
Zhao Yu is probably the core figure of this incident. According to Shen Mengting, Yang Jiening, who was dying, happened to meet Zhao Yu, who was also in a woodland crisis, after hiding in the woods. So, fortunately, everything, including that crucial document, was handed over to Zhao Yu.
Then, under various coincidences, Shen Mengting came to Vortex Town to find Zhao Yuqi. In the end, it was after some adventures that I decided to take the boy on the road, and there was a series of encounters that followed.
Everyone in the palace was a little stunned when they heard this, they definitely didn't want to think that in the nearly three months that Shen Mengting had disappeared, so many adventures had happened.
"Oh, so that's the case!" Lin Mingyuan had been nodding slightly, "Mengting, you have really suffered these days, for the sake of this country, you have done what you should do!"
"Uncle complimented!" Shen Mengting respectfully hugged her fist, "This is what I should do." ”
"It's just...... I didn't expect Yang Jiening to ...... He actually ......" Lin Mingyuan didn't seem to be able to finish the words. This old regent who is over fifty years old now looks like a wronged girl, biting her lip fiercely!
"Uncle!"
"Yang Jiening is the symbol of the military of our Saran Kingdom, even he is dead now, who else will help us resist foreign aggression!" Lin Mingyuan's back was about to stiffen, which added to his old age.
"Hmph! Lin Mingyuan! Why do you have to praise a belligerent [river crab] element like this! The country has never lacked generals, and what is needed is a leader as wise as the king!"
But this time, Lin Mingyuan surprisingly didn't respond, he was still immersed in the grief of his old friend's death.
Although Wei Tianwen is also extremely sad at the moment, because of the relationship between the king, he still needs to think about some more realistic questions, "Shen Mengting, then as you just said, this magician named Zhao Yu is the key to the whole matter!"
Shen Mengting took a big step back, and also made a respectful fist salute as if she had just reproduced it, "Yes, King, I have already handed over the documents to that boy during the battle against the Sauronians outside the city. But he's in a coma because of his injuries, so I can't get the document for the time being!"
Wei Tianwen sighed and complained when he heard it, "Oh, is it? Then there is no way to do this?" But after all the breath was released, he regained his former sense of calmness, "Is that boy seriously injured, how long will it take to wake up?"
Shen Mengting lowered her head and calculated to herself, "I want to ...... It's going to take about half a month!"
As soon as he heard the three words 'half a month', Wei Tianwen's face revealed a sense of solemnity, "Ah, half a month, is it?" The gaze revealed was a little empty, "So...... It looks like we'll have to wait until he's awake to get the document......!
Originally, the king seemed to want to say something to summarize and finish, and subconsciously issued some orders to delay and wait. However, when the hurried words of the regent of Zhou Zhi came, the situation seemed to develop on the tense side again.
"As far as the current situation is concerned, I think we still need to give an explanation to the Sauron country first, so that we can drag this country out of the war!"
Hearing this, Wei Tianwen said 'oh' again, his body was still slightly lowered, "What does that ......uncle mean?"
"First of all, I promise Sauron that I will severely punish Yang Jiening and that I will investigate and interrogate everything within a specific time!"
"Hey!Zhou Zhi!Why are you still fantasizing about peace with the Sauron Empire?" Lin Mingyuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he also showed a fierce expression as if he had changed someone. In the first few minutes, he was still so sad, "Didn't you hear what Shen Mengting said just now? ”
"I didn't turn a deaf ear, but everything is about evidence, if you don't show me the stone hammer evidence about the Sauron Empire's invasion, I can't believe everything you say!" Zhou Zhi waved his arm sharply, and he was about to make a whirlwind.
"Do you still need evidence now?" Lin Mingyuan quickly turned his head, his gaze stayed on Shen Mengting for a moment, "Didn't Mengting already make it clear just now? They have a real hammer document in their hands, and this document is also stolen by Yang Jiening with his own life, and it is enough to wash away the grievances of this great marshal." What are you still chirping?"
"Hmph, so what about the document? After all, I haven't seen the document yet?" Zhou Zhi deliberately stretched out his hand, and his palm was still facing upward. With a provocative shaking of his body, his palm, which was already facing the sky, was still turning upward.
At this time, Lin Mingyuan seemed to be a little clumsy, "Ah...... This...... This...... Didn't you just talk about it? The document is in the ...... In the ......"
"Where's the file?" Zhou Zhi continued to aggressively.
"The document was hidden by one of our companions!Didn't I make it very clear just now that we had to avoid being pursued by the Saurons?" Shen Mengting's tone was a little angry, and she no longer respected the regent in front of her.
"So it's still that question, what about the documents?" Zhou Zhi's voice widened suddenly, and it spread to almost every corner of the palace.
It was precisely because of his loud voice and roar that almost everyone was silenced.
King Wei Tianwen also began to lose his thoughts, and he also let out a low breath, and rhythmically brought his body into a state of floating up and down.
Probably seeing that everyone stopped talking, Zhou Zhi snorted proudly again, "So, so far, you can't come up with convincing evidence, so why convince others?"
The words of the regent of Zhou Zhi are not unreasonable, Shen Mengting and their side are indeed missing something, which makes it impossible for the people of the Saran Kingdom to make some 'famous' moves.
"I have something to say, King!"
At this moment, the regent Zhu Hongxin also spoke. At first he shook the sleeves of his coat and bowed to the king again. Without waiting for the king to give the order of 'please,' he privately spoke in advance.
So far, Shen Mengting has not come up with any credible evidence. She tried her best to explain what there was a 'important document theory', but she actually made an excuse for being hidden by her companions. Don't blame me for being too careful, for it's hard for me to believe every word this girl says!"
At the end of the speech, Zhu Hongxin's waist was already bent very hard, and he had the illusion that his body was parallel to the ground.
King Wei Tianwen didn't dare to reply when he heard it. It's just that there are countless rebuttals in his heart that have not been released. After holding back his lips a little, he still politely lifted Zhu Hongxin's body regent, "Ah! Uncle still has some truth in what he said, and I will reflect on this aspect of the juniors!"
The king's weakness seemed to have inadvertently boosted Zhu Hongxin's arrogance, and his hands quickly broke away from the king's support, and slowly moved a step back, "King! Of course, there is one more thing, I still want to focus on!"
"Uncle, what's wrong?"
"Just now, whether it was Lin Mingyuan or Shen Mengting, they kept saying that the matter was just a unilateral release of the Sauron Empire. But now, they can only say something unilaterally released, and the so-called stone hammer evidence can only be prevaricated by not having it in their hands for the time being. May I ask the king, are they doing the right thing?" Zhu Hongxin bowed deeply again.
Zhou Zhi saw these conversations, and he also laughed. He even made eye contact with Zhu Hongxin, and he didn't have the slightest intention of hiding from the king.
Wei Tianwen was once again dumbfounded, he knew that these ministers who had existed since his father's re-enthronement were really not something he could deal with. In desperation, he could only shrink his neck in compromise.
"Ahh
"The king! This is not right! Without the evidence of a stone hammer, it is taboo to go directly to say that a country is going to invade. If you don't do it, it will cause diplomatic obstacles between the two countries!"
"Hmph! What a diplomatic obstacle! Saran and Sauron have always been clear mortal enemies. Do I still need to slander something?" Lin Mingyuan straightened his chest and confronted Zhu Hongxin without retreating.
"It doesn't matter if you slander me or not, but as far as the current situation is concerned, I think that in the absence of evidence from the stone hammer, appeasement should be the main strategy!"
"I agree with the point of view of Prince Regent Zhu Hongxin! Just now, I don't know who is talking about 'unilateral' every day. But now, at such an important time, I have been 'unilaterally' trusting the words of some little girl!"
"Zhou Zhi! you ......"
Everything I said just now is all Shen Mengting's words. Do you think that our uncles will do anything to harm the interests of the country because of a little girl's unilateral words?" Zhou Zhiyi put his hand on his lower abdomen with righteous words, he just thought that this position could better show his leadership characteristics. His hand lingered here for a while, until it stopped with the finished words.
"Zhou Zhi! Meng Ting risked her life to get that document in her hand, you actually slandered the patriotism of a junior like this!"
"Ha! Lin Mingyuan! You said this well! Actually, I also had doubts before, that is, about Shen Mengting's words!" Zhu Hongxin approached Shen Mengting with a smile, "Shen Mengting! You are really getting stronger and stronger, I don't even think of you as a girl! Regarding this, I am also very similar to your father!"
In the face of Zhu Hongxin's proximity and provocation, Shen Mengting was still trying her best to suppress her emotions. However, as soon as she heard the word 'father' in the other party's words, she slowly narrowed her eyes, "Uncle Zhu Hongxin, you don't have to praise me like this. Your compliments are honestly not a good thing, and my father knows that!"
"Okay!
"Didn't my uncle just say that he wouldn't treat me as a girl?" Shen Mengting and Zhu Hongxin, who came over, were facing each other, and she didn't mean to dodge at all.
There is no obvious difference in the height of the two, and even Shen Mengting is a little taller. This made her, who was originally a girl, not show some weakness when facing a middle-aged man with a bloated figure.
"Look! This temper is exactly the same as her father!" Zhu Hongxin turned his head and looked at Zhou Zhi again.
The two old regents laughed, as if they had used this trick against their own father before. Thinking of this, Shen Mengting's fists were also clenched.
"I'm sorry! Uncle! Shen Mengting is still a young man, and he has a lot of disrespect for his uncles, I hope you don't take it to heart!" Wei Tianwen suddenly stepped in from between the two, and he also gently grabbed Shen Mengting's arm, thinking that he had already seen Shen Mengting's clenched fist and exposing green tendons.
"King!" Shen Mengting called out softly, and her body slowly softened.
Zhu Hongxin would definitely give face to the king, so he turned around and walked away. It's just that the words in his mouth never want to be put down, "King, I will never worry about anything with Shen Haiteng's widow, we all know the merits of this generalissimo." But one thing is the same, and there are some things that I still have to question!"
"What do you have any doubts?" Shen Mengting immediately asked.
Zhu Hongxin turned around, "As you just said, the Sauron Empire once sent out pursuers to hunt you down, right?" Without waiting for the other party to respond, Zhu Hongxin tilted his neck arrogantly, and the two rows of yellow teeth in his mouth were immediately revealed, "You also once said that why you lost the documents is because you were caught by the enemy before you were about to arrive at Qingse City, right?"
Zhu Hongxin's volume was very loud, and it hit Shen Mengting almost without moving.
Shen Mengting immediately lowered her head and looked at it, she didn't know what cards Zhu Hongxin would play, and she couldn't determine the reason why the regent asked these questions.
"What's wrong? Shen Mengting! This regent is asking you a question! Why don't you make a sound!"
"Zhu Hongxin! Along the way, Meng Ting has suffered enough! Can't you even feel this? You actually want her to recall what happened at that time!" Lin Mingyuan issued a stern accusation.
But he didn't expect Zhu Hongxin to just stretch out his hand and shake his arm, "Lin Mingyuan, how could you say such a thing? Since this matter is closely related to national interests, why should I ask her to recall?"
"You ......"
"Uncle Lin Mingyuan! Shen Mengting looked softly at the regent she was talking about with a sincere gaze. After realizing that Lin Mingyuan really wouldn't speak again, she turned her head to Zhu Hongxin. It's just that this time her tone is no longer gentle, but a sharp feeling like treating an enemy, "Since he wants me to recall, there must be a reason." Right? Uncle Zhu Hongxin, the regent!"
Zhu Hongxin smiled slightly when he heard this, but this smile revealed the cunning of a middle-aged and elderly person, "Hehe! Shen Mengting! Your mind is really clear! I don't want some people! I'm really old and confused!"
Lin Mingyuan knew that the 'old fool's annotation was pointing out himself. There was a twitch on his face, and he was wrinkled rhythmically under the light of the place.
"Say it, what are you going to question?" Shen Mengting simply pouted forward.
Zhu Hongxin also stopped mocking his colleagues at the right time. I saw that the smile on his face was gone, and he really looked like a bandit with a straight face, "Aren't I just asking you something? You also said before, the document was lost by you because of the pursuit of Sauron's pursuers." You've even been caught once before you enter Kiyose Castle, right?"
Shen Mengting thought about it for a while, and then released all the answers, "That's right! So what?"
"But here's the problem!" Zhu Hongxin seemed to have found some key point, and he raised the volume by a few decibels, "As you mentioned earlier, Sauron's pursuers are very powerful, not only the traitor, but also the other three. So now I would like to ask you to tell me what kind of professional level they are in?"
Shen Mengting seemed to be a little surprised, and her eyes were rolling in her sockets. For some reason, she felt as if she was about to fall into the old fox's trap, "What the hell do you want to ask?"
"Don't ask 'why', please answer me quickly!" Zhu Hongxin raised his chin slightly.
The face of the regent of Zhou Zhi next to him also smiled treacherously, he just hoped that Shen Mengting would make a fool of himself, which was happier than being late for any delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Seeing this, Shen Mengting could only answer honestly. But before that, she suddenly unfolded her body, "The enemy is a team of four people composed of Zhang Zhijie, of which he is the boss." Presumably you still have a clear understanding of Zhang Zhijie, a traitor, he has now reached the professional level of a master magician!"
Everyone seemed a little surprised when they heard this. Especially Lin Mingyuan, he happened to have a tone to mention, so he never released it again.
"Mengting! you said he ...... You've reached the master level?"
"That's right! He's very strong at the moment. The other three are all his subordinates, and although they are very young, they all have this expert-level strength!"
This is enough information to shock everyone, not only a master, but also three experts by his side. It is estimated that if these four people break into Kiyose Castle, the guards in the city will seem to have some headaches.
Zhu Hongxin didn't show any surprise in his eyes, he seemed to be secretly thinking about something. And just when Shen Mengting was speculating about her intentions, the fat regent still spoke.
"So here's the problem!"
