"Killing people with power?"

After Li Mu heard Zhou Daoquan's words, he was slightly stunned: "Why did the boss say this?" We eradicate the scourge for our neighbors, punish and kill the rebellious party, sit upright, walk straight, and punish the canon, and listen to the right thing. How did it become a murder with power? ”

Zhou Dao's overall face was gloomy: "Nonsense! ”

He lightly slapped the table, made a dull sound, and shouted: "Killing people without permission, showing off power, treating people like pigs and dogs, killing people like insects, without the slightest mercy, is this called sitting upright?" This is not called killing people with power, what is it called? ”

Zhang Shihong was frightened, and lowered his head: "Yes, what the boss taught me is that he got carried away with his humble duties and forgot the law and heavenly chapter......"

Li Mu frowned and looked at Zhou Daoquan: "My lord, according to the laws of Dayin, we should be interrogated and interrogated, sentenced and sentenced, beheaded, killed when killed, eradicate the scourge for the people, clean up the chaos for the court, there has never been any illegal action at all, we have not had the slightest selfishness, boss, where does your anger come from?" ”

Zhou Daoquan stared at Li Mu: "No selfishness? ”

Li Mu said: "Not bad! Li Mu helped the victims, killed the rebels, and had no selfishness! ”

His words were categorical and unhesitating.

The hall fell silent.

At this time, in the county hall of the county government, in addition to Li Mu and Zhang Shihong, there were other officials who were obeying orders at any time.

Zhou Dao is the governor of Yunzhou, and he is a feudal official from the second grade, and he has the right to dictate.

Now Yunzhou is tens of thousands of miles away from the imperial city of Zhongzhou, and it is extremely inconvenient to communicate and transmit books, and every feudal official is almost as big as the king of a small country, and his power is extremely great, and he can decide the life and death of a state's creatures.

Every governor is a well-deserved boss in the territory under his jurisdiction, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the emperor of the soil.

In addition to being responsible to the emperor, they can make their own decisions on other matters.

Therefore, except for some royal children and children of big families, few people dared to face the majesty of the governor, let alone refute the governor's views to their faces.

But now Li Mu has no fear when facing Governor Zhou Daoquan, and he confronts him in front of him, which shocks everyone in the audience.

If you want to die, don't drag us!

Is the Governor something you can fight against?

Didn't you see Zhang Shihong cowering in fright, didn't he even dare to raise his head?

You are a guy who is not even a lifter, and you are not a talented person with no fame, how can you have such courage?

Everyone's hearts were beating wildly, standing in the hall, looking at Li Mu's gaze as if they were looking at a dead person.

Zhang Shihong raised his head in surprise, stretched out his hand and tugged at Li Mu's sleeve: "Mu Zhi's cautious words......"

Li Mu smiled: "Let's do things above board, what can't we say?" The old man's eyes are like torches, and I believe that he will not really be surprised. ”

Zhang Shihong: "......"

The sweat on his forehead couldn't stop flowing: "Muzhi, don't be impulsive......"

Others may not know much about Zhou Daoquan, but Zhang Shihong is a person who has been to Yunzhou Mansion to take the exam, and when he took the township exam in Yunzhou City, he heard more than once about what the new governor Zhou Daoquan did.

For example, which powerful family was killed, which disobedient corrupt official was killed, and the monsters who were sent to sweep away that mountain, and so on.

No matter what one thing you look at, Lord Zhou is not a soft-hearted person, on the contrary, he should be the kind of strongman who does not hesitate to kill everything for the sake of his own governance philosophy.

In the face of this kind of character, Zhang Shihong doesn't even have the courage to look directly at the other party, let alone face it.

"I'm also a lard fan, and I actually listened to Makiyuki's words and really killed so many people."

Zhang Shihong regretted a little: "Now that I have provoked the anger of the boss, I am afraid that I will not be able to do this county order!" ”

Fortunately, he is a person with a reputation and fame, but he is not afraid of killing his head, but he finally took the opportunity to get the position of county commander, and it is estimated that he will not be able to do it.

But Li Mu is his savior, what does Li Mu want to do, Zhang Shihong is not only fully supportive, but also fully supportive, and has no other choice.

Even if he offended the governor today and was dismissed from office, it can only be said that he is unlucky, but he can't resent Li Mu.

After all, it was also his own idea to kill the villains of the rebellious party, but he couldn't all push it on Li Mu.

Zhang Shihong trembled, stood in place, did not dare to raise his head, only felt that Zhou Daoquan's gaze in front of him was like substance, and when he stopped on himself, he aroused patches of goosebumps on his skin.

There was a moment of silence.

Bang!

Zhou Daoquan slapped his palm on the table in front of him: "What a boldness!" ”

"Ahh

Zhang Shihong trembled with fright and fell to the ground.

Li Mu was motionless, looking directly at Zhou Daoquan: "Please also ask the boss for advice." ”

Zhou Daoquan was unswerving, staring at Li Mu for a moment, just when everyone thought that he was going to deal with Li Mu in a frenzy, they saw him suddenly laughing: "Okay! ”

He smiled at Li Mu and said: "Although there are many people who can stick to their own opinions and be unwavering and mighty, there are many people in the officialdom, but they are a minority after all. Makiyuki, I don't like what you and Shihong do, but I like your personality very much. ”

Zhang Shihong slowly got up from the ground, his mind was slightly settled, today's incident is in the past, but the fright just now can't be faked, and his back is soaked in cold sweat.

Zhou Daoquan sat down slowly and nodded to Li Mu: "You all sit down, don't take it as an example!" ”

He said to Li Mu: "Under my guise, you two beat a group of disobedient people in the county into a chaotic party and killed them all, although the original intention was good, but the practice entered the devil's way, what is the difference between the officials who bully people?" ”

There are certain rules for doing everything, especially in human society, whether it is officialdom or battlefield, there is a conventional or universal rule.

Since the Great Yin Dynasty has set the law, Zhang Shihong and Li Mu, as people in the court, should abide by the rules, and once the restrictions are broken, they will basically violate the law.

Li Mu and Zhang Shihong are pretending to be tigers, holding the name of Zhou Daoquan as a banner, and killing so many people at once, it is impossible to explain the law and reason, even if the result is good, but it cannot cover up the procedural injustice.

That's what Zhou Daoquan was angry about.

Confucian disciples have certain rules, etiquette, and rules for dealing with the world, and they must do things in the rules.

Just like the old master taught apprentices, only if he did what he wanted and did not exceed the rules, could he become a teacher under his door, otherwise, there must be something wrong with what he thought and did, and his actions could not reach the level of moderation.

Zhou Daoquan is an ancient Confucian lineage, and he attaches great importance to the rules, so he is very angry with Li Mu and Zhang Shihong's actions in the past few days.

He has been injured and cultivated in the past few days, his divine thoughts are all over the ten directions, and he has listened to the movements within a radius of dozens of miles, and he has already deduced from the words of Gu Tingcheng and Hu Yunniang that the people who saved him a few days ago turned out to be Li Mu and Gu Tingcheng.

When he cultivated to such a realm, the heart lake could reflect the movements of the ten heavens and the earth, and in idle situations, no movement could hide his perception.

It's just that the Que Yue Cave Heaven has its own realm, so he can't find out the situation in it, and because he is eager to save people, for the safety of Shen Chong, he has to take a risk, thinking that with his skills, even if the enemy is powerful, he will not be damaged.

Unexpectedly, he was infected by the exhausting breath of Que Yue Dongtian, so he was taken advantage of by the monsters and besieged and injured, but fortunately, a peerless master punched Que Yue Dongtian and repaired the entire cave world, and also removed the decay breath in the whole Zhou Dao, so that Zhou Daoquan took the opportunity to escape from Que Yue Dongtian, and with Li Mu's help, he returned to Qinghe County safely.

He had been recuperating from his injuries for the past few days, and summing up his thoughts, there were two people who really shocked him.

One is the peerless master who suddenly appeared, it was really powerful to the extreme, and I don't know which sect master-level ancestor came, with just one punch, he reshaped a cave world, and the magic means were really unheard of, even if the former master was alive, I am afraid that it is nothing more than that.

There is another person, that is, Li Mu.

If he hadn't listened to the movements in Qinghe County and hadn't heard the chat between Gu Qingcheng and Hu Yunniang, he really didn't know that the person who saved him from the turtle and snake two demons a few days ago turned out to be Li Mu.

Knowing that Li Mu and Zhang Shihong had acted too much in the past few days and killed too many people, Zhou Daoquan did not come forward to stop it, and he only reprimanded him today, and did not care.

"This is the end of the matter, let's not take an example!"

He sat in the hall and said to Li Mu and Zhang Shihong: "There are many arrangements for farmland and water conservancy, and you have done a good job. ”

Small kiosk

Li Mu hurriedly saluted: "Thank you for your understanding, boss." ”

Zhang Shihong was even more overjoyed: "The boss is so loving, and the students are grateful!" ”

Sitting in the hall at the moment, he began to discuss the affairs of the victims of the two counties, and after everything was arranged, Zhou Daoquan looked at Li Mu: "Muzhi, in two months, it will be the year of Dabi, and in three days, the mansion will return to Yunzhou City to prepare for the invigilation." If you are taking the township test, you should prepare as soon as possible. ”

He said to Li Mu: "With your merits in the county, I can go to the imperial court and allow you to raise a quota, and you will have fame without exams." However, how can the fame of the reward compare to the test you have obtained? You'd better take the exam in person. ”

When Zhou Daoquan said this, he laughed and said, "A group of girls in Wanhualou are still waiting for you." ”
