Now that the results of the preliminary trial have come out, if the emperor has no opinion, then the verdict will be so decided, and it will be arraigned again at this time, what does it mean?

Fei Cai came to the court with this question, but when he arrived at the court, he immediately found something different from usual.

Today, there is only one minor official who seems to be of low status in this criminal department. And the presiding judge was the servant of the ministry, Wang Zhuo, and the king.

That's kind of fun!

Since the beginning of the trial, the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials have been-for-tat, it stands to reason that the Lord Wang of the Ministry of Officials has come over today, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs is not allowed to have a leader of the same level?

But in today's situation, how can you look at it and feel that the Criminal Department is not ready to take care of this matter anymore?

And so it really is.

Today's arraignment is basically a repetition of the questions asked before, and after Fei Cai answered calmly, the people from the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Rites withdrew first, and in the end, only Lord Wang, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, looked at Fei Cai with a smile.

"Get up! At this moment, it's just you and me, not in court, so you don't need so many courtesies. Lord Wang said.

Fei Cai was not polite, and immediately stood up, bowed slightly, and said, "Lord Xie." ”

At such a beginning, Lord Wang actually chatted with him all over the world. The two of them just talked about some poetry and scriptures at the beginning, and Fei Cai didn't understand it originally, but Xiao Sheng passed on so much knowledge to him after all, and it was still possible to deal with two sentences urgently.

But as they chatted, the topic shifted to the border war. Lord Wang didn't care that this was a sensitive topic, and asked Fei Cai directly: "Xiao Xiao, what do you think of this battle of Loulan?"

(Of course, Lord Wang's original words were not said so, but Fei Cai automatically made up the other party's words into the language of modern officialdom, and the same goes for the following.) ）

When Fei Cai heard this, he couldn't help but complain in his heart: It is Xiao Sheng who has an opinion, but he has already hung up, you have to ask me, what can I think?

But on the surface, he definitely couldn't say that, so he had to quickly search in his head and find out Xiao Sheng's opinions, hmm...... It's all pretty sharp.

Fei Cai hesitated, but thought that he had already "beheaded the prison marquis" anyway, and the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, so just say it!

So, he poured out Xiao Sheng's views in one go, if Xiao Sheng knew that his research results could be stated to the Lord of the Ministry of Officials, he would probably laugh at Jiuquan.

After hearing this, Lord Wang bowed slightly, but he didn't make a judgment, but changed the topic: "Xiao Xiao, I'm still very optimistic about you, have you ever thought about going to the border to exercise first in the first few years to contribute to the country?"

How could Fei Cai not want to? As long as he doesn't stay in this prison all the time, he is willing to go wherever he wants.

But the question is, wasn't the result of his preliminary trial "beheading the prison marquis"? How did he become a grassroots level exercise?

He hurriedly asked this question, and when Lord Wang heard this, he smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this! Besides, this is just a preliminary judgment, and the final result will have to wait for the emperor's holy ruling." The emperor has always loved talents, even if you accidentally offend him, he will not let your talent be wasted in prison. ”

The deep meaning in the language of officialdom has always been indescribable, and when Fei heard Lord Wang say this, he immediately learned a lot of information.

With Emperor Wu's temper, people who have different views from him are not considered talented at all! But listening to Lord Wang's tone, Fei Cai will indeed be given a light sentence, and there is only one reason: In the civil official group, there are bigwigs who have taken action to protect him.

It seems that the strength is still insufficient, and the most likely one is probably to be the right minister. Even if it is the emperor, he has to take into account the opinions of the old ministers of the two dynasties, such as the right minister.

Fei Cai figured out this layer, so he didn't ask any more, and expressed his heartfelt thanks to Lord Wang and his upper-level leaders.

Lord Wang saw that this young man was still very good! Immediately, the smile on his face deepened: "Where to send you, there are four choices, and the specific one to choose is still being considered." As for me, I'd like to ask for your opinion as well. ”

"What are the four choices?" Fei asked.

"Loulan, Beiman, Donghai, Nanwu, the border cities between my country and these four countries, which one would you like to go to?"

When Fei Cai heard this, it was really these four choices, and none of them were peaceful places! However, among these four options, there was really one that he was interested in.

That's Nanwu.

Xiao Sheng left him a wealth of knowledge, including information about the Four Kingdoms. Regarding the Wu clan in the south, Fei Cai already knew the following information:

First of all, the Wu people are human beings, not only that, but they also call themselves "Zhou people", according to them, they are from the same origin as the Central Plains people, but because of a great change two thousand years ago, they fled to the south.

Secondly, the political structure of the Wu nationality is loose, basically organized by the "village" as a unit, the large village has thousands of people, the smallest village may only have a few dozen people, the village and the village do not have a stable subordinate relationship, although the powerful village will be around the small village into its own scope of rule, but once its own strength declines, the small village next to it will immediately be scattered, have to find other big villages to shelter.

Thirdly, the core of each village, no matter how big or small, is a shrine maiden, who is not only responsible for religious sacrifices, but also responsible for agriculture, military, diplomacy, etc., in short, the supreme leader of a village.

Fourth, and what Fei Cai is most interested in, the witch clan believes in the witch god, and the witch must be someone who can get power from the witch god. But the point is that in the religion of the Wu people, the witch god does not refer to a specific god, but to a type of god!

The Wicans believe that there are gods in everything. For example, they believe that if there is wind, such as fire, there is a god of fire, and the earth, naturally there is also a god of the earth, and even unnatural products such as bronze, buildings, and crops also have corresponding gods.

For example, if a witch can communicate with the god of the wind, then she will gain the power to control the wind, and if another can communicate with the god of water, she will gain the power to control the flow of water.

When Fei Cai read this, he was quite surprised. At first glance, the religion of the Wu clan looks like shamanism, but even if it is shamanism, there is no such thing as saying that even man-made objects have gods!

Moreover, according to Xiao Sheng's records, after the witch communicated with different gods, she could really get different abilities, could it be that in this world, there are really so many gods and goddesses, big and small?

It was then that his curiosity was piqued. After thinking about it for a few days, a hypothesis slowly formed in his mind.

But whether this idea is right or not, you can only know if you have seen it with your own eyes, Fei Cai was worried that there would be no chance, but now, the opportunity has come to him.

So what is there to hesitate about?

"Sinner Xiao Sheng, I am willing to go to Nanwu!" Fei Cai saluted seriously and said with a serious expression.

"Oh?" Lord Wang was a little surprised, he originally thought that Fei would go to the border of Loulan, but he didn't say anything, nodded, and said that he already knew, so he sent Fei before leaving.

Just as Fei Cai was on his way back to the prison, a long-lost text appeared in the middle of his field of vision.

"You've made a key choice, the mission world world line is over, and a new mission description will be released, so please read it. ”

Immediately after, a new mission statement appeared in front of him.

"Quest World: I Am a Confucian (Nightmare difficulty)

Quest Phase 1 Name: Capture the shrine maiden.

The objectives of the first phase of the quest are: 1) to survive before reaching the territory of the witch, 2) to gain the trust of a witch, and 3) to find the source of the witch's power.

Depend on!!!

When Fei saw the name of this task, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood......

The system is quite fashionable, huh? Even the name of the popular online novel dares to spoof!
