"President Zhou."
"Has the food and grass been delivered?"
"not yet…"
Zhou Ziru quietly squeezed the brush in his hand and said calmly: "I understand, you can go out first."
After the primary school left, Zhou Ziru frowned: "I came to Sichuan and Sichuan to suppress the rebellion, but the government was delaying the supply of food and grass. Considering that the journey was difficult, we have set aside time, why haven't we arrived yet... Could it be that there is someone behind the scenes in the court? A stumbling block?"
"Your Majesty... Xigui surrounded and killed Guan Chenzi. Your Majesty hates Xigui to the core. Now that I am leading the army to suppress the rebellion, Your Majesty has no reason not to support me. That is, there is someone else in the court who is causing trouble... who could it be? …”
"All the lieutenants, tutors, and security guards in the court have died. Who else can control the government? Qian Ning is just a warrior, and he has no reason to interfere in military and political affairs. Wang Zhenliang said that he can intervene. His Majesty's edict The order must go through his hands, but he..."
Zhou Ziru thought of Wang Zhenliang and shook his head with a smile. Although he was a eunuch, Zhou Ziru knew that Wang Zhenliang would never be able to interfere in military affairs and tamper with edicts.
Zhou Ziru thought for a long time and couldn't think of the reason, so he sighed: "The hero is sad about beauty, so what about the emperor... sigh"
…
In the capital, the sky is covered with clouds.
Zhao Yizhi sat on the dragon chair in the imperial study room, his eyes closed tightly, as if he was falling asleep.
Outside the palace, in the inn, Cheng Pingshi packed his luggage nervously and looked out the window from time to time. In the distance, a group of imperial guards separated from the pedestrians on the road, aimed at the inn, and came here.
Seeing the group of imperial guards getting closer and closer, Cheng Shiping gritted his teeth, gave up the salute, grabbed the candle on the side, took out the scroll from his arms and lit it. In just a moment, the scroll was completely burned.
"Let's search one by one! Search every room carefully!" Downstairs, the Imperial Guards had already entered the inn.
Cheng Shiping casually grabbed a quilt, wrapped it around him, and pushed towards the window.
"Bang!" With a sound, the window was directly smashed by Cheng Shiping. He rushed out, but his foot slipped and he fell directly from the second floor and fell to the street. The pedestrians on the roadside were so frightened that they gave way and did not dare to approach.
Cheng Shiping didn't know martial arts. Although he only fell from the second floor, the fall was not light for him. Fortunately, the quilt was wrapped around him, which offset most of the force.
"If you survive a catastrophe... you will be blessed later." Cheng Shiping glanced nervously at the inn. No one among the guards had noticed him yet. He wrapped himself in bedclothes, stood up and was about to run away.
"Boom!" A bolt of thunder struck from mid-air and hit the masonry a few steps in front of Cheng Shiping. The rubble flew away, scaring everyone into hiding further. On the street, Cheng Shiping stood alone in the street, particularly conspicuous.
This thunder struck Cheng Shiping so frightened that he stood on the spot and did not dare to move. Just now, Cheng Shiping could even feel the electric arc carried by the thunder and the rush of heat.
"There is a situation outside! Go out and take a look!" The Imperial Guards heard the sound of thunder and immediately sent out many people to check the situation.
Cheng Shiping stood in the middle of the street, unable to escape...
Many people in the capital came to the official government office in the capital, wanting to watch the excitement.
Cheng Shiping was brought to the middle of the lobby. As soon as he stood still, two sap blows hit the crook of his knees, forcing him to kneel down.
The presiding officer had just sat down in his seat and looked up to see Cheng Shiping kneeling on the ground, not daring to move rashly.
"Raise your head and take a look at this!" The presiding judge saw the crowd of people around him and struck the big case with a bang, throwing away all his prestige.
Cheng Shiping raised his head obediently after hearing the words. When their eyes met, both of them were very surprised.
"What's going on..." The presiding judge's butt lifted up unconsciously.
"Sir, the common people have been wronged!" Cheng Shiping, who had been silent just now, saw the presiding judge and couldn't help shouting that he was wronged.
This shout seemed to be a reminder, and the presiding officer slowly moved his buttocks and sat back in his seat.
"Bang!" Another shock.
"Bold Cheng Shiping, in broad daylight, in the capital, you jumped from a high-rise hotel building without authorization and deliberately disturbed the people! Do you understand your crime?"
Cheng Shiping kowtowed as if pounding garlic: "The common people...the common people punish the sins, please forgive me."
"Well, since I know the crime, then I..." The presiding judge raised his eyebrows and decided to give the verdict.
"Hey! Is this the end? Isn't this too confusing?"
"That's right, it's too childish to close the case without any trial, isn't it?"
"It must have been stuffed with money..."
The people who were watching were talking about it. They took people to kneel down somewhere and confessed their sins. What does this mean? Some people haven’t found a suitable location to watch the excitement, so it’s over?
The jailbreak in the hands of the presiding judge slowly fell, and he felt a little panicked: "Calm down and calm down, there are many people watching, don't make it too obvious."
"Then I want to ask you!" The presiding officer cleared his throat: "Why did you jump from the inn?"
Cheng Shiping rolled his eyes and shouted: "Sir, I am a vulgar savage from the countryside. He came to the capital to find a job to make a living. But he was short of money and had used up all the money. He was afraid of being asked for room fees by the store, so he panicked and chose a way out. So he broke the window and fled privately..." Cheng Shiping's lies came out casually.
"Payment for business is a matter of course. You are also a man, so what if you just do some work for this store to pay for the house? He is just a bastard. Someone came and took him to prison and notified his family. , took him back. Retreat!"
"Hey, didn't he say he came to the capital to work? Where did he get his family?"
"A confused judge decides a confused case, so let's just watch it in a confused manner. Why are you being so serious?"
"God doesn't have a good eye. This kind of person can also be an official..."
The right and wrong are in people's minds, and the people around him are still talking about this result.
The presiding officer could not control much anymore and left the hall as if he was running away.
Cheng Shiping was escorted by two government officials and taken to the backyard of the government office.
"You...why do you dare to run around in broad daylight?"
"Haha, thank you Mr. Li for rescuing the siege!" Cheng Shiping chuckled. All the shackles and hemp ropes had been removed from his body. He moved his wrists a little: "I wonder if Mr. Li would like those two girls from the past few days? If you like, I will send two more to you another day, dedicated to the adults."
When Mr. Li heard about the two girls, he smiled so much that his eyes narrowed together: "Brother Cheng is too polite, but if there is anything else...hehehe."
The two looked at each other, laughed, and started laughing at each other.
"If it's okay, Mr. Li, then I'll take my leave first."
"Please! Brother Cheng, please!" The presiding officer named Mr. Li diligently led the way: "Take the back door, which is more convenient."
Cheng Shiping smiled loudly and followed Mr. Li towards the back door of the government office in large strides.
As soon as they were sent outside the house, the two of them said goodbye. Suddenly, a thunder exploded in the air and struck Mr. Li directly. Mr. Li's face was struck by this thunder, and smoke suddenly flew out. Mr. Li twitched and fell to the ground, with a smile on his face.
After this incident, Cheng Shiping's heart tightened. This thunder was too familiar. He could even feel the thunder's intention to follow him, and instinctively turned around to escape.
"Boom!" There was another blast of thunder, and this time, it hit Cheng Shiping accurately. Cheng Shiping was blown away and fell heavily to the ground. The paper fan in his arms slowly slipped out and was splashed with sparks. It fell on the paper fan and ignited.
This thunder was so powerful that it struck Cheng Shiping unaware. He looked at the paper fan and stretched out his hand to reach for it, but there was no feeling in his whole body. It was difficult for him to even lift a finger.
The light in his eyes quickly dissipated. Before it dissipated, his eyes were still staring at the paper fan, watching it slowly burn.
…
There was a little thief in the capital. It seems that he broke open the window and escaped from the room to avoid paying the hotel room fee. This was originally an insignificant and trivial matter, not surprising. If the Imperial Guard had not happened to be present that day, no one would have reported it to the officials, and the major matter would have turned into a trivial matter.
But all the Imperial Guards were still there, and they caught this little thief and sent him to the government office. Unexpectedly, the adults in the government office acted like children playing house and sentenced him casually.
Unexpectedly, two thunderbolts struck across the sky, killing both the little thief and the chief inquisitor Mr. Li!
"God is still wise. I'll have to kill a few more faint-hearted officials like this!"
"Hey, hush, be careful what you say. There is nothing to be punished for talking about people behind their backs!"
"What are you afraid of? I am not afraid of slanted shadows. Since God has eyes, what can he do to a person like me?"
On the streets, people had more to talk about.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Cheng Shiping and Mr. Li from the government office had just died not long ago. The dark clouds in the capital city continued to roll with thunder in the morning, and several thunderbolts struck in succession, not far away.
The people didn't dare to say anything anymore and hid in their homes one after another, praying that God would have eyes to spot the attack accurately.
There is really a pair of eyes above the nine heavens, staring at the capital below.
Outside the palace, thunder exploded, and fires were lit in some places, causing fires.
In the capital, thunder and fire intertwined, making it very lively.
Wang Zhenliang stood on the gate of the imperial palace, looking at Jinling City. Black smoke was rising from time to time. He was so anxious that he turned around and climbed down the city wall to the imperial study.
Zhao Yizhi noticed someone approaching and slowly opened his eyes, waiting for the rightful owner to enter.
"Your Majesty, there are many people in Jinling City. The sky is thundering, what should we do?" Wang Zhenliang asked.
Zhao Yizhi tapped his fingers, and another thunder struck outside the palace: "If you want to remove the disease, you need to take strong medicine."
Wang Zhenliang heard thunder coming from behind him from time to time, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, many ministers are still needed for many things in the court. Don't kill them all!" As he said, Wang Zhenliang knelt down and begged.
Zhao Yizhi didn't speak, but his fingers tapped faster.
"Your Majesty, have mercy! Your Majesty, have mercy!" Wang Zhenliang was anxious.
Zhao Yizhi sighed and slowly withdrew his tapping hand: "Okay..."
