Mrs. Shui's bright eyes were also full of shock.
My heart says what’s going on?
Even if Song Yu killed Mr. Xi, the Yin God, how could he make Mr. Xi's confidants betray him directly with the roster?
At this moment, I recalled in my mind what the old Taoist Qu Xiang said at that time - I believe he is it.
The taste is completely different.
Zuo Zhanlong neither dared to escape nor could he resist at all, so he could only cry out for injustice.
"My lord, please don't fall for the tricks of these thieves. How can I get involved with people like them? Is it possible to convict a person by writing his name in a book? This is obviously the thieves' attempt to harm others." I am bringing trouble to our Demon Supervisory Department!"
One of Zuo Zhanlong's closest men also shouted injustice: "That's right, Mr. Yu, you must not be deceived by bad people. On weekdays, it is precisely because we, the people of the Demon Supervision Department, clean up these evil things in Mingzhou all day long. , causing them to hold a grudge!”
"Yes, these are obviously injustices!"
The middle-aged man kneeling on the ground said: "The Cao Min here not only has a roster, but also records in detail every time Zuo Zhanlong and other officials came to meet Mr. Yin Shen Xi, including the conversations between them. There is a record!”
The downtown area of Yunfeng County is now crowded with people, but almost all of them are confused. Most people don't know what kind of organization the Chu Ming Sect is, nor who Mr. Xi is.
At this moment, Mr. Xi's confidant, the young man, suddenly said: "Including this recent time, Yin Shen deliberately revealed that he pretended to be a woman and killed young ladies from wealthy families, just to attract Mr. Yu, the imperial envoy, to plot Killing, for which many people have been prepared to block the road and complain... they are in the crowd!"
As soon as these words came out, the senior leaders of the Chu Ming Sect who had been hesitant before were completely panicked. They rushed into the crowd on the spot. Because there were too many people, it was difficult to get out. Some people even used brute force and even took out murder weapons to threaten them.
But before the crowd could get into panic, several silver and bronze medalists from the Zhan Zi Section immediately took action and pounced on the top brass of the Chu Ming Cult.
In just a few strokes, these people were completely held down.
Lady Shui said loudly: "Don't panic, everyone, as long as we are here, no one can hurt you!"
The crowd of onlookers who had no panic effect now came to their senses.
"What do you mean? That Mr. Xi they are talking about...is he that monster?"
"Didn't that person just say that he killed a young lady from a wealthy family? If not that monster, who else could it be?"
Song Yu looked at the young man: "Go on."
The young man continued to speak loudly: "Yin Shen is discussing with Zuo Zhanlong and his group how to completely deceive you, the imperial envoy. The method has already been discussed..."
Song Yu looked at Zuo Zhanlong and asked, "Mr. Zuo, do you have anything else to explain?"
This time, he finally used evil words to confuse people.
We can't let him "confess his feelings" as soon as he comes up. Even if it is true, it will look too fake!
Is there anyone who doesn't struggle a little and just explains right away?
Now is the time.
Zuo Zhanlong looked livid and said dejectedly: "Now that things have happened, my subordinates have nothing to say..."
"Then let's talk. I and all the fellow villagers are all ears." Song Yu said calmly.
A flash of surprise flashed across Mrs. Shui's eyes. Although she couldn't "smell" any spell, she realized something was wrong!
Under normal circumstances, there is no way that a gangster like Zuo Zhanlong would give in like this!
Even though Song Yu was full of charlatanism and never talked politics or acted according to routines when facing the court bosses, he still had to follow the rules for many things, especially when he was in front of countless people.
He's not a bloody-handed butcher, just killing people indiscriminately.
"Convincing the public" is very important!
Otherwise, why would those ancient tyrants be overthrown in the end?
Relying on massacres, bloody suppression and other cruel methods will never last long.
So, Song Yu is really... a bit powerful!
Zuo Zhanlong was "silent" for a moment.
"Mr. Xi is indeed a Yin god trained by Yin souls. He has been hiding in Mingzhou for many years. He needs to absorb women's Yuan Yin to practice magic. But he has always been very careful before. Under our protection, those who have been tainted Most women care about their reputation and dare not speak out about it, so they have never had any trouble over the years."
The crowd was suddenly in an uproar!
Countless people showed signs of indignation. Who dared to believe that the official responsible for handling such matters in the imperial court was colluding with ghosts and harming innocent people?
Song Yu looked at the agitated crowd of onlookers and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone. The purpose of my coming here is to deal with this matter. Please listen to this bitch slowly. I will give it to the elders of Mingzhou." An explanation will bring justice to the victim!"
His voice overwhelmed the entire audience, and the crowd gradually became quiet.
Song Yu looked at Zuo Zhanlong: "Go on."
Zuo Zhanlong said: "The imperial envoy killed a friend of Mr. Xi in Lin'an Mansion a while ago. Mr. Xi was in grief and vowed to avenge his close friend. For this reason, he did not hesitate to expose some information to lure the imperial envoy here. , we have made careful arrangements for this... those people who were just arrested are..."
As he spoke, there were constant exclamations from the crowd.
"Too sinister!"
"That damn thing really deserves to die!"
"Where is Mr. Xi now? Has it escaped?"
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, we must not let that ghost Mr. Xi escape. I beg you!"
"grown ups……"
Many people in the crowd of onlookers shouted loudly.
This thing is really frightening. If they hadn't been caught today, they had no choice but to admit that they would never know that there was such a terrifying demon hidden around them.
At this moment, a very loud voice came from afar: "Special Envoy Song, I have received an order and led 1,500 defenders here. Please give me the special envoy's orders!"
Then the crowd automatically separated into a road, and a Mingzhou military captain wearing a helmet and carrying armor came over there with dozens of people.
Of the more than a thousand remaining defenders, some of them have sealed several city gates in Yunfeng County and no longer allow people to pass freely. The remaining ones are also present in several key places, ready for deployment at any time.
Song Yu raised his hands to the captain who came over: "Thank you for your cooperation!"
He looked at the few silver medals of the Zhan Zi Branch around him and said in a deep voice: "Immediately capture Zuo Zhanlong and others, protect these meritorious people who have been reported and exposed, search them all from the list, and start arresting people according to the list... !”
…
…
Yunfeng County Government.
At this time, more than two hours had passed since Song Yu and his party entered the city.
Now, a large number of Mingzhou defenders are cooperating with those rosters and starting to arrest the senior leaders and core members of Chu Mingjiao.
The county magistrate Zhu Qingwu is an old man in his early fifties, with a handsome and elegant appearance and a long beard. He is sitting in the county office waiting with Song Yu, a senior official of the fourth rank, and Lady Shui, a fifth-rank official.
"Is Magistrate Zhu a little hot? Why are you wiping your sweat all the time?" Song Yu asked with gentle eyes.
He had previously felt that where Yin Shen was developing unscrupulously, there must be more or less problems with the local government at all levels.
Now Magistrate Zhu's performance has confirmed his suspicion.
From the looks of it, the problem may be quite big.
According to the ability of Mr. Yin Shen Xi, the county magistrate in front of him might even be his believer!
"Sir, sir, I'm really a little hot..." Magistrate Zhu replied with a stiff smile on his face.
"Is it the hot weather, or is it hot in my heart?" Song Yu asked with a smile.
Plop!
Magistrate Zhu immediately knelt down in front of Song Yu and began to kowtow without saying a word.
Madam Shui was stunned, but she quickly reacted, and a cold murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Dog officer!
"What is Magistrate Zhu doing?" Song Yu asked.
"Please forgive me, please forgive me!" Magistrate Zhu was now soaked in sweat and his hair was wet.
Kneeling there in embarrassment and kowtowing, a master who was also here and several government officials were stunned on the spot.
I thought to myself, “What’s wrong with our county magistrate?”
Even if there is a yin god here to establish a religion, the imperial envoy can at most punish you for not doing anything, but can he kill you? Besides, the person who made the report had already said that it was the entire Mingzhou Prefecture!
Isn't it your fault?
Why are you so scared?
Song Yu remained silent and did not speak, but quietly looked at Magistrate Zhu who was kowtowing repeatedly.
Lady Shui said, "Let's go out for a walk."
Song Yu nodded, and then the two of them walked out of the county government office side by side under the gaze of the government servant and the master.
"What do you think?" Mrs. Shui asked.
"I thought the State of Zhao was very wealthy." Song Yu replied as if he was not answering the question.
The two came to a waterside pavilion and sat on a bench in the pavilion.
"The State of Zhao is very wealthy and has always been generous to its officials. Just like this Magistrate Zhu, his salary is not low. He is not a high-ranking official, but he is also a county official, let alone a wealthy Ji County. Ling, how could it be possible that he has no money? But it happens that such a person who wants status and status will mix with the evil spirits, and even very shameful...become a subordinate of the ghost. Help the ghost to deceive. Those common people.”
When Mrs. Shui said this, her tone was gentle, but her eyes were full of murderous intent.
"Yes, the Zhao State is so rich, and Magistrate Zhu is not short of money. Even if he does not dare to fight against the ghosts, he can at least choose not to participate?" Song Yu sighed lightly, "The result is collusion! Because of him This kind of dog-eat-dog officer has led to a large number of people who used to have a pretty good life to join this cult, spend their entire lives and possessions, and remain obsessed with it until their death..."
If it's just a shady act, even if you can't control it as a county magistrate, you can at least choose to report it!
The imperial court will naturally send people to take care of it.
They choose to become the subordinates of the Yin God, and they don't even have to wash themselves, they just deserve to die!
Before Song Yu came to the county government office, he had already seen County Magistrate Zhu's name on the list, and it was at the top of the list.
Position - Yunfeng Helmsman! ——
