During the three days when the trial was suspended, Cao Xianling was led by the officials to the governor's palace every day.

On the way to the Governor's Palace, the people were pointing and pointing, and at the end of the day, many people knew Cao County's order.

Cao Xianling looked a little haggard, and his walking was not very steady, as if he heard that it was because of the injury of the bandits last time, and his body had not yet recovered.

Cao Xian Ling stayed in the Governor's Mansion for a day.

Therefore, the people of the whole city knew that the governor would interrogate Cao County's order every day.

On this day, the Cao County Order was brought to the Governor's Mansion early.

It is the place where the Governor usually works in the back office of the Governor's Palace.

"Cao County Order, you...", the Governor said.

"Your Excellency the Governor, if you are a suspect now, it is more appropriate to call me by my name. Cao County ordered.

The Governor snorted from his nostrils, and said, "Is this the only way you can do it? You know how much you argue about your crime here, no matter how much you use the law, it has been done." ”

Cao Xian Ling arched his hand and said, "My lord, I don't know anything." The laws of the Great Song Dynasty are not interpreted in the way you do. What I want is peace, and it is acceptable to lose office. The mistakes made in this county can be solved with a black gauze hat, that is the best, and that is the ultimate goal I pursue. Your Excellency, you are a powerful person, unlike me, you are not very good at reading the letter of the law, so you do not understand. But in the next day, I am immersed in this, and naturally I know a little more than adults. ”

The governor thought about it and understood the meaning of Cao County's order, as long as he didn't lose his head, as long as he could take off his black gauze hat safely, Cao County's order would be satisfied.

With so much money and such a big case, it is a blessing not to be killed.

The governor said: "I hope it won't affect me, you also know that I don't ask much, and if I can do it, even if someone from above investigates, they won't be able to find me." At that time, whether you divide the corpse of the five horses or execute Ling Chi, it has nothing to do with me. Actually, I've been thinking about what I would do if I were you. ”

Cao Xian ordered: "What will you do? Surrender or escape?"

Although the tone of the county order was a little teasing, the governor did not get angry, but said seriously: "I will choose to escape, surrender is definitely not good, the crime is too serious, the possibility of being beheaded is too great, I will flee far away with my family, and even flee to the Liang State and Wei State..."

Cao Xianling sneered: "It's even more unrealistic, if I want to drag my family and flee to Liang and Wei, then I'd rather die here." I'll be honest with you, it's okay for me to die on my own, as long as my family isn't affected. I'm trying not to die now, but if it's really impossible, I have a way not to affect my family. ”

The governor raised his eyes to look at Cao Xianling, and couldn't help but shake his head: "Your stubbornness and self-confidence are still the same as when you were in school. ”

With that, the two of them fell silent.

The Governor remembers the student career when he was still a hot-blooded young man and still wanted to dedicate everything to the world and the people. At that time, everyone was open-minded, and no one looked down on those who gave up their ideals for money, and when it came to what they wanted to do in the future, they would stand in front of the people to shelter from the wind and rain even if they shed the last drop of blood.

The county magistrate is thinking about how to go step by step, he never misses the past, especially those simple student careers who don't know anything and blindly listen to what people say. At that time, everyone was stupid, self-righteous, and didn't understand what the world was like, didn't get close to reality at all, and didn't understand what life was at all.

Chen Letian was fine that day, so he wandered around the street with Liu Daming.

After a morning of shopping, both of them were hungry, so they came to the food street to eat.

At noon, the number of people eating in the street began to increase, and the crowding continued until late at night.

This is the bustling part of the food street, except in the morning, not many people come to eat, except for the night when everyone is sleeping, there are many people at other times.

Chen Letian and Liu Daming couldn't help but move their index fingers as soon as they entered the eating street, even people who were not hungry would want to eat at the moment, not to mention that they were really hungry at the moment.

found a shop to eat hot pot, and the two sat down and ordered a mandarin duck pot and more than a dozen dishes.

Liu Daming is a typical scholar and can't eat much, but Chen Letian is an atypical rough person who can eat a lot.

Chen Letian ate and drank to his heart's content, touched his stomach and said, "Daming, have you eaten enough, I don't feel full when you eat so much." ”

Liu Daming said: "I am a scholar, unlike the owner who is a cultivator, and the consumption is originally less, and it cannot be compared with the owner." ”

The two of them are talking with each other, but in fact, they have their own eyes observing the people around them. Observing others is a habit they both share. Wherever they go, wherever they are, they like to observe, and in fact, this is a characteristic that all people with a heart have.

No matter where they are, this kind of person wants to see the people and things around them as clearly as possible, and to figure out what is happening around them, what is happening, and what is the reason.

Then Chen Letian saw that the four men were two tables away from them, and they were also eating hot pot, and they were about to finish eating. Chen Letian looked at their brothers, who were all five big and three coarse, and looked at their words and deeds as people on the road.

Chen Letian didn't pay much attention to them, but looked at the two scholars sitting at the other table next to him, sitting opposite each other and drinking, with a few empty plates beside him, he didn't eat much, and he had already drunk several pots of wine.

Then he looked at the other table, a man who looked like a rich merchant was eating alone...

I kept looking at it, and when I turned my head, I inadvertently looked at the four people at the table again.

Because the four of them spoke a little loudly, if there was no one to talk to in a crowded place, it would be more annoying, Chen Letian couldn't help but glance at them more. The table should be a man who looks like a boss, with a scar on his face that is not too deep but not too shallow, and he just looks up and looks at Chen Letian.

Chen Letian glared at him with interest, and the man's gaze subconsciously retreated, but then he was afraid that he realized how I could be stared at by this person and avoided his gaze, so he forcibly stared at Chen Letian.

Chen Letian's eyes were cold again, and the man couldn't help but shudder, as if a cold wind had blown through.

The man looked left and right, and felt that something was wrong, very wrong. Looking at it again, Chen Letian was too lazy to play with him.

Chen Letian, who was born in the military and killed more than 100 people, has eyes that ordinary people never have.

As soon as he remembered the scene of his own battlefield, or thousands of screaming enemy soldiers in front of him, or his own corpses all over the ground, or the souls of the other party everywhere, his eyes would naturally have a kind of sharp knife sharpness.

In the words of the old pawn, this is called the momentum carved into the bones and blood.
