"grown ups?"
Xie Jing, who didn't hear his master's reply, after tearing up all the curtains and throwing them into the brazier, walked over and shouted again.
"hold head high?"
Di Ying was shouted back to his senses, thought for a moment, and replied angrily: "I am Sima from Luozhou, why should I kill Wang Liangji?
He is the governor of Jinzhou. Moreover, the evil things he did, apart from taking bribes and bending the law, were also targeted at individual individuals.
Even if there is his own confession, whose body is it? You also heard what Wang Liangji said, they were all thrown into the deep pit of the mass grave.
More than three years have passed. There are mountains of corpses there. Where do you want me to find them?
I have no right to kill him, I can only send him to His Majesty.
If he recants his confession then, won't I become blind? There's not even a single piece of evidence.
Even if he doesn't recant his confession, doesn't His Majesty already know about Chen Boyu's case? Official Chen Boyu has been reinstated? Didn’t His Majesty also not deal with Wang Liangji? "
Xie Jing: "...Sir, you seem to be a little resentful. What's wrong? If you don't want to kill him, don't kill him. Why don't you keep him as a witness against Wu Qiongsi and Murong Xuan?"
Di Ying: "..."
He rubbed his brows, looked at the white ash on his fingers, and stood up to wash his face and hands.
He has no resentment, really not...
Just like what he said himself: Chen Boyu was wrongly accused and had already come to an end with His Majesty. His Majesty did not do anything to Wang Liangji, so he could not execute Wang Liangji.
He just wanted to ask Wang Liangji if he had anything to do with Murong Xuan.
When asked, the next step was for him to find a way to deal with Murong Xuan.
Previously, both Wu Damei and Lu Kairui were talking about Wu Qiongsi. At that time, Di Ying thought that Murong Xuan was just used as an excuse by Yuan Zhenghao to deal with Wu Damei.
Later I guessed it wasn't the case.
But guesses are always just guesses and need to be confirmed. That's why he disguised himself as an underworld officer and interrogated Wang Liangji.
Xie Jing was right about one thing: he kept Wang Liangji just to make him stand around and become a tainted witness in court later.
…
While Di Ying was busy with matters in court and cases, the border gates of the country were not idle either.
There are already some people who are ready to make a move. In order to have greater certainty, they have secretly united.
Sun Xingrong, the leader of the Khitan, joined forces with Li Huizhong, the governor of Songmo Governor's Mansion.
Although the Khitan rebelled twice, and was scared away by Di Ying's name both times, Zhao Wenhui, who caused the Khitan rebellion, was not dealt with by His Majesty. He still exploited the Khitan people, and still took advantage of the top and left. Swallow right violently.
Sun Xingrong couldn't bear it anymore, so he and Li Huizhong, who was also oppressed by Zhao Wenhui, got together.
Li Huizhong's surname was Li, which he inherited from his ancestral surname that was rewarded. He also inherited the official title and became the commander-in-chief of the garrison outside Songmo City.
On this day, in Li Huizhong's study, the two discussed the regulations for the specific time of the uprising and so on.
"In ten days, it will be my mother's sixtieth birthday. Starting tomorrow, I will send out invitations widely. Then use this as an excuse to ask the Songzhou Governor to open the gates of Songzhou City for half a month.
You can bring five thousand people into the city and arrange another five thousand people in the west of the city. I also have ten thousand people here. I also brought five thousand people into the city and left ten thousand in the east of the city.
At that time, when all the dog officials of the Great Xia Dynasty gather at my house and use me as a sign to throw a cup, we will directly occupy Songzhou City and attack Raozhou City, rebelling against that son of a bitch! "
Li Huizhong expressed his decision with confidence.
Sun Xingrong also very much agreed with Li Huizhong's plan, but he was also slightly worried in his heart.
"Um... I wonder where Di Ying is now?"
Sun Xingrong was really worried. What if the rebel flag was raised or a fight broke out? When the fight was still lively, suddenly there was another voice in the air: "Master Di" is coming, what would he do?
Should I fight or not fight after that?
"Oh, brother Xingrong, don't think so much. Now that the matter has come to this, we both have no way out, we can only grit our teeth and fight. No matter how amazing Di Ying is, can he still have the ability to predict the future?
We have been having joint talks in secret for so long, but we haven't seen him make any move at all. Believe me, he must be unaware. At this time, he is probably still solving cases in Luozhou.
When the fighting breaks out on our side, he will be out of reach if he rushes over from Luozhou. As for the Khitan people on our side and on the other side of Yingzhou, as soon as they hear that we have raised the flag of rebellion, they will definitely respond. "
Previously, there was a severe drought in Yingzhou, and the imperial court allocated food, grass, money, and money for disaster relief, but Zhao Wenhui misappropriated them all.
Turning a blind eye to the wails all over the ground and the hunger and death everywhere. This greatly angered the Khitan people, and they were just waiting for someone to raise their arms and shout, and they would rebel against the country.
Sun Xingrong was really overwhelmed by the pressure. Even if he was afraid of Di Ying, he would risk it all. What's more, Li Huizhong is now emboldening him.
Things were arranged and carried out quietly like this.
On the occasion of Li Huizhong's mother's birthday, because of Li Huizhong's identity and status, officials from Songmo, Yingzhou, Raozhou and other nearby cities came to celebrate her birthday with heavy gifts. Some even brought their families with them.
Songmo City suddenly became full of people, bustling and lively.
Mr. Liu, the governor of Songmo, didn't even think about closing the city gates. He even arranged for the city guards to line up at the four city gates to greet all the arriving guests, and they even sang and danced.
And at night, the whole city celebrates.
Under the fireworks that exploded all over the sky, vats of wine, whole pigs, whole sheep, and even whole cows were all roasted to a crispy brown and oily, and were carried to the camp outside the city.
Governor Liu didn't stop him. This was Governor Li's reward for the troops stationed outside the city.
Their commander-in-chief has a happy event, and the soldiers below can naturally share it.
Therefore, Governor Liu did not discover that the number of people in the military camps on the east and west sides of the city was not right. Not to mention that countless Khitans had sneaked in.
Because Songmo City is also a border city, with Khitan on one side. Li Huizhong's ancestor was a Khitan general, and there were often Khitan people coming and going in Songmo, but the inspections were stricter.
Everyone is happy now. Someone from Li Huizhong's family is also here, and with the family and his family in charge, it's not easy for Governor Liu to stop them.
Although in a practical sense, he, the governor, was just to keep an eye on Li Huizhong.
But when someone's mother celebrates her birthday, no one wants to look bad.
Look at the Governor's Mansion, there are so many congratulatory guests, it's almost overcrowded.
