Chapter 383: Half a corpse

“…… So, do you admit that your name is not Wu Sishang anymore? ”

"Of course. This name was obtained by me to pay tribute to the people of Jiangdong. Wu Sishang, 'no casualties', I only hope that the people of Jiang Dong can be unscathed, but unfortunately, these are just my wishful thinking. In the end, everyone died. ”

Wu Sishang seemed to have decided to tear his face, he told his secret without the slightest concealment, and then stared at Changsheng with a pair of light yellow eyes.

He just wanted to know what Changsheng had seen in his dreams. He heard Changsheng shouting 'Xiao Yan Lang', so, did Lord Yan really see her in a dream? So why, why don't you see yourself? Do you think he's done all this wrong?

But how can you be willing? More than 500 years! How he got through those days and nights by himself, only he knows. How terrible it was to tear at his soul in those silent nights, and he had seen enough in all these years, so even if the adults really felt that he had done something wrong, he would not be afraid! No regrets!

Because all of this is for everyone to have a goodbye day.

Seeing Wu Sishang looking at himself so firmly, Changsheng had no choice but to tell the scenes he saw in his dreams one by one. But in reality, she didn't seem to see any meaningful scenes. Only that Lord Yan, Changsheng felt that it would be dangerous to enter Beijing that time.

"Really? My lord didn't talk to you. ”

Wu Sishang seemed to be disappointed, he lowered his head, as if immersed in his thoughts, Feng Jin didn't know what dumb riddle the two of them were playing, and asked a little strangely at this time.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Changsheng shook his head. It's a bit hard to talk about for a while, and it's not a good time to talk about it.

After a moment, Wu Sishang seemed to have sorted out his emotions, and he glanced at Changsheng.

"Then the little immortal chief thinks that Lord Yan is a good person?"

"Nature."

There is no doubt about it.

She saw that the lives of those Jiang Dong people were getting better and better because of Xiao Yanlang, and those heartfelt worship were all sincere, without the slightest adulteration. Even those Qincha who came from the imperial capital were a little jealous of this, and Changsheng was sure of this.

"As an official, Xiao Yanlang has governed Jiang Dong very well, which no one can deny."

"Hahahaha-"

Wu Sishang suddenly burst out laughing. Feng Jin was a little surprised, what he could be sure of now was that this Wu Sishang should have a little problem with his brain.

Immediately after, Wu Sishang spoke in a low voice.

"I see, that's what you think too. Yes, even an outsider knows that Lord Yan is a good official, and he has done a lot of things that are good for the people. But in the eyes of those dignitaries, Lord Yan stood in their way. Even the emperor who was high above believed that Lord Yan's existence had affected his position in the hearts of the people. ”

Wu Sishang looked at this dark valley, just like when he heard the news, it made people feel breathless.

His lord obviously held such a beautiful Tian Ce, who wanted to dedicate himself to His Majesty, to enter the imperial capital with hope, but when the spring flowers bloomed in March of the following year, the lord still did not come back. This shouldn't be an adult who has always been a man who keeps his promises, and it is impossible for him to promise himself to come back, and finally break his promise.

So, something must have happened.

Just when he wanted God to see what was going on, a piece of news shocked all the people of Jiangdong with the arrival of the merchants.

"You said that Xiao Yanlang? Alas, dude, I don't know what to say to you......"

The businessman had cooperated with the people of Jiang Dong many times, and every time he came, he was smiling, but this time, since he entered the city, he looked worried. There is even a faint sense of vigilance.

He realized that something was wrong almost instantly, and after taking the merchant to the City Lord's Mansion along with his goods, the merchant finally couldn't hold it anymore, and his eyes were red and he opened a large wooden box.

Before he opened it, he felt that something was faintly wrong, why did there be a stink, a stink of corpses in this box?

However, he forcibly suppressed the bad conjecture in his mind and went to see what was in that box. However, at the first sight of it, he couldn't help but freeze on the spot.

It was a decaying, decaying headless skeleton pickled in lime. The corpse was dressed in white prison clothes without any markers, and because of its slender body, it was almost forced to curl up in this wooden box. The white prison robe was no longer white, after all, it was stained with a lot of dark brown blood.

He looked at the headless skeleton, which had obviously been tortured, and for a moment he didn't understand what the merchant meant.

"You, this, what does this mean......"

"Your Excellency—"

At this moment, a few terrible cries of pain came, ah, it was Aunt Li in the kitchen, and the old housekeeper who had served the adults for almost half of his life, as well as a few maids. Why are they so miserable? Why do they seem to be almost unable to live?

He doesn't know, he doesn't know!

A vague guess came to mind, but he refused to accept it. At this moment, the merchant himself could not hold back his tears. He has traveled all over the country and met countless people. Those officials have seen not a thousand, but hundreds. But there has never been one like Xiao Yanlang, who really puts himself in the shoes of the people. He has been to Jiang Dongcheng many times, and every time he comes, there are new changes.

In these years, as long as you really want to live, who doesn't like an official like Xiao Yanlang? It's a pity, it's a pity—

"When I received the news, Lord Yan's body had been thrown in a mass grave for half a month, but fortunately, God had mercy on him so that he would not be bitten by wild dogs. In the imperial capital, no one is allowed to collect the bones for him, I tried my best, but I can only bring back this half of the bones, the first level, the first level ......"

When he said this, Merchant Li, who was accustomed to seeing the sinister situation of the world, couldn't help but burst into tears.

"The head, still hanging on the wall. His Majesty himself decreed that he should be hung on the city wall for a year, so that it would be exposed to the wind and the sun, and that no one should be allowed to collect his bones......"

"That imperial capital city, that imperial capital city has a thousand-year history, but it can't tolerate a good official of Lord Yan?"

"Corrupt and perverted the law, ill-intentioned, collided with the emperor, and intended to rebel against ......"

"Poor Lord Yan, proud of his bones, with a clean breeze on his sleeves, even I, a passer-by, know, but in the imperial capital, there are deaf and blind people all over the city, and no one is willing to check it, so a good official was killed——"

"The sky has no eyes, so in this world, there is no room for a good official who really thinks about the people——"
