Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Zhu You stared at Zhou Jun and asked, "Is this person really General Jian's cousin?" ”

Zhou Jun looked around, and saw that there were many onlookers on the street in front of the county government, he waved his hand and said: "General, this is not a place to speak, please inside, please inside!" ”

Zhu You turned his head and looked at Liu Xiu, seeing that Liu Xiu nodded, he carried Wu Luo and strode into the county government. The people naturally didn't dare to follow up, but Liu Xiu took square steps and walked in unhurriedly.

The official guarding the gate glared at Liu Xiu angrily and shouted, "Stop!" Do you know what this place is, just go inside? ”

When Zhou Jun heard the sound, he turned his head to look, and when he saw Liu Xiu's appearance clearly, he wondered if he was dazzled.

He was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly came back to his senses, his body shook, and he hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Xiu, and said in a trembling voice: "Weichen Zhou Jun, knock to see Your Majesty!" ”

Seeing this, the gatekeeper who was scolding Liu Xiu just now was frightened, and the young man in front of him was ...... Is it the Son of Heaven? The official felt that his legs were weak, and he knelt on the ground with a pop, his body shaking non-stop, and he didn't dare to raise his head.

"Zhou County's order, please get up, speak in the house!" Liu Xiu waved his hand to Zhou Jun and walked straight into the gate of the county government.

Zhou Jun hurriedly got up from the ground, bowed down, and followed closely behind Liu Xiu.

Entering the lobby of the county government, Zhou Jun hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, please sit down." ”

Liu Xiu also took it upon himself and sat down on the main seat. He raised his hand and pointed at Wu Luo and asked, "Who is he?" ”

Beads of sweat broke out on Zhou Jun's forehead, and he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this person's name is Wu Luo, indeed...... It is indeed a relative of General Jian's maternal side, according to generation, it is...... He is the cousin of General Jian. ”

As he spoke, Zhou Jun glanced at the officials below. The official of the organic spirit immediately brought a bucket of water and poured it directly on Wu Luo's head. Wu Luo, who was beaten by Zhu You and became delirious, woke up slowly. He didn't know what was going on at all, he had a swollen face, and looked around, he first saw Zhu You, and was frightened, and then he saw Zhou Jun, as if he had found the backbone, he got up from the ground and shouted: "Zhou County."

Ling, you have to be the villain's ......"

Before his words fell, Long Yuan scolded: "Presumptuous! ”

As he spoke, he walked behind Wu Luo, aimed at his knee, and kicked him hard. Wu Luo couldn't stand and knelt heavily on the ground, his knees hurting so much that he couldn't help but scream.

Zhou Jun reprimanded in a deep voice: "Wu Luo, you dare to be so rude in front of Your Majesty, what crime should you be guilty of?" ”

Your Majesty? Wu Luo didn't come back to his senses for a while, he subconsciously raised his head and looked at the main seat in front of him.

I saw a young man in civilian clothes sitting on it, the young man was handsome, with handsome facial features, a pair of tiger eyes, blazing, and staring at himself intently at this time.

Is it Liu Xiu? Wu Luo reacted quickly, hurriedly kowtowed forward, and said in a trembling voice: "Grass people Wu Luo, meet Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xiu stared at him for a while, and then asked slowly, "Wu Luo, are you Jian Rong's cousin?" ”

"This ...... Grass...... The grass people are the cousin of General Jian. ”

"You're a local?"

"Grass People...... The grass people are from Yingchuan Xiangcheng! ”

Liu Xiu nodded, Jian Rong is also from Xiangcheng, which is right. He asked, "Why did you come to Wancheng?" Wu Luo subconsciously looked at Zhou Jun, who knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and didn't even look at him. Wu Luo said cautiously: "When the grass people learned that their cousin was stationed in Wancheng, they brought a few close friends from their hometown to Wancheng and wanted to ...... I want to help my cousin

Arm power! ”

"Then you should join the army!" Liu Xiu said softly.

Wu Luo lowered his head and said, "The grass people originally wanted to join the army, but ...... But the grass people can't endure the hardships of the army, and they ...... It is also because the grass people are greedy for life and afraid of death, so they ...... Not in the army. ”

"So, in the name of Jian, you bully men and women in the bazaar?"

"The grass people deserve death! The grass people deserve death! Wu Luo's snot and tears flowed down together, and while kowtowing forward, he repeatedly admitted his mistake and pleaded.

Liu Xiu looked at Wu Luo, who was panicked and crying bitterly, his face sank, and he asked word by word: "You are forcibly taking the people's money in the bazaar, is this under the command of Jian Rong?" ”

This sentence made Zhou Jun, who was originally kneeling on the ground, almost fall to the ground.

His face was pale, sweat was like rain, and he couldn't help but raise his head slightly and look at Wu Luo. If he dares to say the word 'yes' at this time, not only will he be finished, but even Jianji, and even himself, will have to get into it. Although Wu Luo is a ruffian, he is not at the point of being mad and biting people. He put his head on the ground, choked up and said: "My cousin doesn't know what the grass people did in the market, and I ask Your Majesty to spare the grass people for the sake of the grass people's cousin."

This time! "I can spare you, the law is unforgivable." Liu Xiu turned his head and said to Long Yuan: "Summoning Jianrong!" Immediately let Jian Rong come to the county government, his cousin, in his name, bullying men and women in the city, doing misdeeds, and causing trouble to the people, to deal with Wu Luo like this, let

He'll make the decision himself. ”

Hearing this, Wu Luo's face was like ashes. He and Jian Rong are not very close, and the two are also far away, and he is at best a distant cousin of Jian Rong.

Besides, he knows Jianrong's character, he is upright, and never favoritism, if he lets Jianrong know what he has done, can he still have a way to live?

Wu Luo kowtowed again and again, and said urgently: "Your Majesty spare your life, Your Majesty spare your life......"

No one paid any attention to him, and Long Yuan strode out.

When he was about to walk out of the lobby, Wu Luo seemed to suddenly remember something, raised his head, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the grass people want to report!" The grass people have something important to report to Your Majesty! ”

Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to Long Yuan, who was walking outside, and motioned for him to wait first. He looked at Wu Luo and asked, "What do you want to report?" ”

Wu Luo swallowed his spit and said, "Wancheng...... In Wancheng City, there were thieves who had an affair with Deng Feng and wanted to do bad things, but fortunately, His Majesty personally recruited in time to exterminate Deng Thief in one fell swoop, so that Wancheng was not lost! ”

As soon as he said this, there were more beads of sweat on Zhou Jun's face. Aren't you talking about it? In front of the Son of Heaven, you are unbelievable, how many heads have you grown?

He grinned secretly and scolded in a low voice: "Wu Luo, in front of the Son of Heaven, don't talk nonsense. ”

"The grass people don't talk nonsense, what the grass people say, every word is true."

Zhou Jun was about to speak, Liu Xiu waved his hand at him, he looked at Wu Luo intently, and asked, "You say, in Wancheng City, someone has an affair with Deng Feng?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Who are you talking about?" "Back to Your Majesty, this person's name is Zhao Xi, he was Liu Xuan's courtier before, and then Chang'an was lost, Liu Xuan was killed, and Zhao Xi fled back to his hometown in Wancheng with a group of cronies. He and Deng Feng are not only old acquaintances, but also have a good friendship and want to come to Deng Fengmou

On the contrary, Zhao Xi also gave him advice. During Deng Feng's rebellion, the two of them exchanged letters frequently, and the grass people had been staring at Zhao Xi's meticulous work for a long time! ”

Zhou Jun looked at Wu Luo in surprise, he didn't know what he said. Zhao Xi is a person, he knows, Zhao Xi and Deng Feng have a good relationship, and he also knows it, but Zhao Xi and Deng Feng have close correspondence, so he doesn't know.

Zhao Xi is a former minister, in the first court, he was a general of Wuwei and a general, and when Liu Xiu and the Mang army fought Kunyang, he also participated in it, but he was in the city at the time, and Liu Xiu was outside the city.

Liu Xiu still had a little impression of Zhao Xi, and he asked: "What you said, can you tell General Zhijian?" ”

Wu Luo lowered his head and whispered, "Grass people...... The grass people didn't tell their cousin. ”

"Why not?" "The grass people haven't gotten the real evidence of Zhao Xi and Deng Feng's fornication." Wu Luo looked at Liu Xiu in horror, kowtowed forward, and said in a choked voice: "The grass people know that my cousin has always looked down on the grass people, and feels that the grass people are not good at learning, and they are greedy for life and afraid of death.

It's too lazy to do it, and the grass people also want to make a big thing to make my cousin look down on the grass people. ”

"So, do you know that Zhao Xi and Deng Feng have a close correspondence, but they have not reported it?"

Wu Luo hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the grass people have already secretly intercepted several letters between Zhao Xi and Deng Feng, and after only thinking of finding out the real evidence, they will take down Zhao Xi in one fell swoop, take him to see his cousin, and confront him face to face!" ”

Liu Xiu nodded, his voice softened a little, and asked, "Where is the letter you intercepted now?" ”

"They are all hidden in their homes by the grass people."

Liu Xiu turned his eyes, looked at Zhou Jun, and said, "Zhou County Order, send someone to fetch it, I want to see it myself!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! Zhou Jun hurriedly agreed.

Liu Xiu said to Long Yuan: "Summoning Ziling and Ziling to come to the county government together!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! ”

Liu Xiu pondered for a moment, and then said to Zhou Jun: "Bring Zhao Xi to the county government!" "Wechen obeys!"

If Zhao Xi really had an affair with Deng Feng, and even wanted to collude with Deng Feng, and wanted to cooperate with Deng Feng in Wancheng, then this person must not stay, such a scourge should be eradicated as soon as possible.

Liu Xiu's private visit to Weifu this time was originally to see the people's livelihood in Wancheng, but he didn't expect to meet Wu Luo under the banner of Jian Rong in the bazaar, and through Wu Luo, Zhao Xi, who had close contacts with Deng Feng, was introduced.

Soon, Yan Guang and Jian Rong were summoned to the county government by Long Yuan, and when they saw Wu Luo, who was kneeling on the ground, embarrassed, and his face swollen like a pig's head, Yan Guang and Jian Rong were both stunned.

Yan Guang didn't know Wu Luo, and Jian Rong also looked at him for a while before recognizing him.

Seeing Liu Xiu sitting on the main seat in the lobby, Wu Luo knelt down tremblingly, Jian Rong had a bad premonition in his heart, he and Yan Guang bowed to Liu Xiu together, and said, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "No courtesy." ”

Jian Rong looked at Wu Luo again and asked, "Your Majesty, did Wu Luo offend Your Majesty?" ”

Liu Xiu's gaze fell on Wu Luo's face and said, "Say it yourself!" Wu Luo stubbornly told Jian Rong what happened in the bazaar. In front of the Son of Heaven, Wu Luo didn't dare to lie, nor did he dare to add the slightest amount of oil and vinegar. When he finished speaking, Jian Rong was furious, and raised his hand to hold his ribs

The hilt of the sword, gritted his teeth and said: "Wu Luo, you are so bold, you dare to use my name to oppress the people, you don't need Your Majesty to condemn you today, I will kill you with my own hands!" As he spoke, he was about to draw his sword.

Yan Guang hurriedly stopped him and reminded in a low voice: "In front of Your Majesty, how can you draw your sword?" ”

Jian Rong was stunned for a moment, his body shook, he was really confused!

He turned around and knelt down to Liu Xiu, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty, Wu Luo's crimes in Wancheng are all the faults of Weichen's negligence, and please ask Your Majesty to punish Weichen and Wu Luo together." ”

Liu Xiu still knows a lot about Jianluo, he is upright and fair, if he knows what Wu Luo has done, he will not sit idly by. He smiled at Jianyi, waved his hand, and said, "Ziling, please get up." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen ......" "Get up!" "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Liu Xiu said: "Originally, I wanted to punish Wu Luo, but just now Wu Luo reported that Zhao Xi and Deng Feng had an affair, do you know about this matter?" ”
