Wu Zheng frowned and asked, "So what?" Isn't winning the best outcome? ”

Li Ruhai said angrily: "The lord did win, but it was more resentful than defeat." Although the adults won this battle, they lost the hearts of the people, and next time, can the adults still win? Therefore, the lowly thinks that the means will affect the result. ”

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Wu Zheng somewhat believed Sun Mingzhen's judgment on Li Ruhai, this is also a person with a bottom.

"The lord is in the Chen family, and he killed three people without the trial and conviction of the government."

"The official said that it is self-defense."

"With the number of soldiers you had with you at that time, it was enough to defend yourself. Even if you really have to, killing one person is enough. ”

"What else do you want to say?" Li Mu's face became a little gloomy.

"Your Excellency took away Master Shen yesterday in front of Lord Huang and the humble position, dare to ask your lordship, where is Master Sun now?"

"Dead."

"Dead?"

"Dead!"

Li Ruhai roared angrily: "How did he die? ”

"Killed by a crossbow arrow."

"Who killed him?"

"I don't know."

"Isn't it an adult?"

"Presumptuous. If this official wants to kill Sun Mingzhen, do you need to use crossbow arrows? Wu Zheng was angry and slapped the table, "Li Ruhai, do you think this is your class room, and this official is being interrogated by you?" ”

Li Ruhai sneered: "Your Excellency is in a hurry? ”

"What am I anxious about?"

"The lord just said that in this house today, only Wuzhuang Wu Zheng and Shi Ning Zhen are as strong as the sea. What you say, you forget when you go out. This is especially true in my ears. ”

"This official is true to his word."

"Then please answer, who killed Sun Mingzhen?"

"The official said, I don't know."

"Your Excellency was at the scene of the murder?"

"In. Sun Mingzhen died next to the official. ”

"Then the adults still say they don't know?"

"You misunderstood, the official is saying, I don't know who is the main messenger."

"The lowly question is, who is the murderer?"

"Three murderers."

"Where's the murderer?"

"Pursued by the general banner under this official, the three murderers saw that they could not escape, and committed suicide on the spot."

"Where is the murderer's body?"

"Fifty miles north of Shining Town, the official is now building a house there to house the accompanying people."

"Where are the people?"

"The people who were rescued by this official from Jinshanwei."

"Is it with the consent of the government?"

"Naturally, the imperial court agreed, and Lu Jianguo also specially gave 2,000 taels of silver to settle the people."

"Good. Humble Letter. Please go to the beach to inspect the adults and lowly officials. ”

"Li Ruhai, do you know what will happen here?"

"I don't know about the lowly position, but it is the duty of the lowly duty to arrest the murderer."

"Have you ever thought about who would be the one who wanted to assassinate Sun Mingzhen?"

Li Ruhai was silent, he was not a fool, yesterday on Shining Street, Huang Degong sent a messenger to arrest Sun Mingzhen, and he was present.

If you can't even guess this, then you have been in vain for more than ten years.

But Li Ruhai also understands that the water is too deep, so deep that if you step into it, it is a disaster.

Not only does it not top, but it will also affect the family.

So, he didn't want to get involved.

After some previous conversations, Li Ruhai believed that Wu Zheng was not the murderer.

Killing Sun Mingzhen did not do Wu Zheng any good.

Besides, Wu Zheng didn't have to tell him the news that Sun Mingzhen was dead.

It's just that as a head catcher, there is a murder case in the jurisdiction, and he is in his position, so he has to seek his position, and he can't avoid it.

And Sun Mingzhen may be the only person he can confide in Yamen County.

Since you can make friends, you are friends.

When a friend is in trouble, how can he not lend a helping hand?

How can you sit idly by and watch your friends die in vain?

Therefore, Li Ruhai decided to investigate.

Wu Zheng looked at Li Ruhai's flickering face and sighed: "It seems that Li Zhutou is aware of the stakes of this matter, but if this official takes you to examine the body, it is bound that everyone will know about this matter." Have you ever imagined how the mastermind behind the scenes will deal with you and me? ”

Li Ruhai's face gradually stabilized, "Then according to the adult's opinion, what should I do?" ”

"This official does have a way. But can the official believe you? ”

Li Ruhai said: "The humble position is humble and light, and I don't want to be a knife in anyone's hands, but if the adult is willing to uphold justice for Sun Mingzhen, what needs to be done in the humble position, the humble position should not be allowed." ”

Wu Zheng stroked his palm and said, "Okay." Sun Mingzhen really didn't misunderstand you. ”

Li Ruhai was stunned, "Sun Mingzhen is still alive?" ”

Wu Zheng shook his head and said: "At that time, Sun Mingzhen discussed with the official and was preparing to write a letter from him, inviting Li Zhutou to thoroughly investigate the case of Huang Degong's secret connection with Tartar, and he was assassinated if he didn't want to. He told the official that Li Zhutou is a person who can be trusted. That's why this official came to you privately today. ”

Li Ruhai heard this, and his face was calm.

Wu Zheng is a little strange, Huang Degong secretly communicates with Tartar, is this matter also known to Li Ruhai?

Sure enough, Li Ruhai said: "Lord Huang has dealings with Tartars, and he has heard of his humble position, but now that the world is difficult, I'm afraid it's not just Lord Huang who does this, right?" People's hearts are in turmoil, and even if Lord Huang is investigated and punished, it will not be able to change the situation. ”

Wu Zheng said: "Even if we can't completely sweep away the dust, this doesn't prevent you and me from making this world cleaner, what do you think?" If everyone chooses to sit idly by, then there is really no salvation in this world. ”

Li Ruhai was moved, he hugged his fists and said, "Say, my lord, let me do something?" ”

Wu Zheng decided to choose trust, so he told Li Ruhai about Sun Mingzheng's suspicions and secret letters with Li Ruhai one by one.

Li Ruhai's face became indignant.

For him, if Huang Degong was just his own defection, he would rather treat it as if he didn't know anything.

After all, it's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, and he can't stop him if he wants to.

But he didn't expect that Huang Degong didn't want to surrender to the enemy alone, but united with the four counties under the jurisdiction of Shaoxing Mansion to present the city to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which also involved important ministers of the imperial court.

This is a surrender to the enemy, this is a traitor, taking the lives of the people of the four counties in exchange for their future.

"Li catches the head, the secret letter is under the table in Huang Degong's study, Sun Mingzhen said that only you can take it quietly. Would you like to? ”

Li Ruhai thought for a while and said, "Humble duties can be done. However, if Huang Xianling did not leave the yamen, he could not find a reason to enter the study to get the letter. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, the official will lure Huang Degong to leave the yamen in the name of inviting him to the banquet. When the time comes, you have enough time to look for this letter. ”

Li Ruhai got up and arched his hand: "Listen to your lord." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Li Ruhai said: "Please swear, if you get this letter, your lord will definitely be able to bring the person in the letter to justice and give Sun Mingzhen justice." ”

With a "bang", Wu Zheng put the tea cup in his hand on the ground and split it apart.

Pointing to that place, Wu Zheng said: "If I break my word, it will be like this!" ”

Li Ruhai said: "Resignation." ”
