Chapter Seventy-Five: The So-Called "Justice"
"Master Di, I'm not obligated to help you with everything."
"And we're just in a cooperative relationship, right? It's not your turn to dictate to me. β
His tone also became unkind, even in the face of Di Renjie's serious face, Lu Yu did not give in this time.
"Lu Yu, I admit it, you are very powerful. But from my point of view, I want you to be able to use your strength in the right place. β
"Oh? What's the right place? β
"Punish evil and promote good, so that justice spreads throughout Chang'an City."
This is Di Renjie's lifelong dream, and it is precisely because of his dedication to this dream that he has struggled so far and made unremitting efforts.
"Justice?"
The corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously.
Justice in the light, and justice hidden in the shadows......
"So, tell me, those two people last night, did what they did justice?"
It was Li Yuanfang who told Lu Yu about the ins and outs of the restaurant incident.
The oppressed people, the demonic officials, and the secret justice.
"While I won't deny that they picked out the pests for me, I'll never admit that they did justice."
A thief who robs the rich and helps the poor?
In my Di Renjie's eyes, a thief is a thief after all.
The only law that measures the world is the law.
What punishes sinners should be the words of the law, and it should definitely not be the so-called "justice" of the sidelines.
"So, do you want to say that you are the embodiment of justice?"
sneered, this was the first time Lu Yu felt that Di Renjie was a ruthless and impersonal guy.
Could it be that in his eyes, the only standard for measuring everything is the rigid law?!
"I am only the embodiment of the law, and the law will tell me what is good and what is evil."
The first time others questioned the justice he was pursuing, Di Renjie's tone was also extremely cold.
"Since your ideas contradict mine, you don't have to stay any longer."
patted Li Yuanfang's shoulder beside him, Di Renjie put down his heavy face and called, "Yuanfang, let's go." β
"But, Master Di......"
Li Yuanfang looked at Di Renjie worriedly, and then at Lu Yu reluctantly, in a dilemma, not knowing who to persuade.
"What, even you question me?!"
The first time he yelled at his assistant in such a big tone, Li Yuanfang was stunned with fright, and his big smart ears were even more direct.
β......β
Li Bai didn't persuade anyone, just stood aside with his arms crossed, frowning.
However, at the moment, it seems that it is a bit difficult to solve the case well.
......
In the glorious palace, the green smoke swirls around, the burning lamps and the incense diffuses ...... Brilliant and glittering, like a fairyland.
Of course, these are all superficial phenomena. Compared with the extreme brilliance, there is also that sense of solemnity.
On the golden lacquer throne in the hall, there sits an emperor who looks down on the world; And below, the singing and dancing are leveled, the sleeves are fluttering, the bell is ringing, and the music is melodious.
If anyone enters the palace for the first time, they will be impressed by the splendor of this scene.
However, what is even more remarkable is that the supreme emperor sitting on the throne is actually a woman.
An empress who captivates the country and the city, but is extremely domineeringββββ
"Your Majesty."
A white-clothed priest slowly stepped up the solemn steps, and he had given the empress the will to come from a courtyard planted with peonies in the market.
Even though there were countless murderous golden armors guarding the empress's side around Fang Shi, his expression had never changed.
"Are you the Fang Shi who can observe the stars in Chang'an City?"
The cold and majestic voice sounded, just like the Xuanhuang above the Nine Heavens, and the Xuanhuang was unexpectedly surrounded by the Xuanjing, which could not be calmed down for a long time. The empress was not angry and arrogant, even if it was just a greeting, but it was still like a majestic river, pressing on the hearts of everyone in the hall.
"Exactly down there."
Bowing slightly, unlike the ministers below who bowed their heads and didn't dare to speak, although the white-clothed Fang Shi smiled respectfully, there was no fear in his eyes.
"I heard that you are the disciple of that peony alchemist."
"Those are just rumors."
The white-clothed Fang Shi raised his head, not at all afraid, staring at the empress's majestic pupils.
"Below, it's even more powerful than that peony alchemist......"
"Oh? Tell me, what's your name. β
Interested in the arrogant and confident white-clothed priest in front of her, as well as the interesting mystery on his body, the empress's tone became curious.
"Ming Shiyin."
An imperceptible smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, like a blooming peony, very charming......
......
The night once again blew like a gale, and in the blink of an eye, it had enveloped the entire Chang'an and the whole world.
The moonlight was a little hazy, but still radiated a gentle and soft glow.
The broken moonlight was like fine sand pouring down, covering this silent land with a layer of golden gauze.
In the same way, the moonlight is also guiding the direction of sneaking under the night.
The melodious sound of the lute sounded tactfully, stretching endlessly, through the streets and alleys, indicating the way forward.
When the chess pieces fall, between the square inch chessboard, is the isolated heaven and earth, protecting the figure in the dark night.
"Tiger, you won't be allowed to crow's mouth again this time."
Gongsun Li warned Pei Baohu very seriously, she didn't want to make this mission troublesome again.
"Don't worry, I won't say a word tonight, oops, I'm sorry I said it again."
Seeing Pei Baohu scratching his hair apologetically, Gongsun Li could only sigh helplessly.
I knew that I shouldn't have pulled this Hanhan into the organization in the first place.
Since the isolated world in the chess game last night was slashed by Li Bai's sword qi, this time, the teenagers in the organization had to show their best skills.
Accumulate the power of thunder and storm, and finally have a place to use.
"This time, there shouldn't be any problems......"
Although he hoped so, Gongsun Li still had no confidence.
Li Bai, Di Renjie...... They're tough guys to deal with.
However, in her mind, she couldn't help but think of Lu Yu's figure.
"I'm really in trouble, let's go first."
The impatient voices and faces are still fresh in my mind.
Is it because Ah Li is not good enough? Or is Ah Li's dancing skills not outstanding enough? Why, why did he become so impatient with himself?
For some reason, there was a sense of frustration, and Gongsun felt that he had been left out by others for the first time.
Sighing again, Gongsun Li followed Pei Baohu, and the vigorous figures of the two disappeared into the moonlight......
