Yinglun thought that the conditions given were already very generous, and he said these words with great sincerity.
He stared closely into the eyes of Huo Zhen and Huo Shi, with a sincere look on his face.
"You two, if you don't enter this door now, we still have room to turn back, but if we really go in, there will be no room to turn back."
"Now at the door of the Governor's Palace, there is a turning point in the fate of you two brothers."
"If you are willing to cooperate with me, as long as Governor Huo nods his head now, I will immediately destroy those so-called evidences."
"No one in the world can find evidence that your brother committed murder."
"Besides, I will never threaten Brother Huo with this matter in the future."
Yinglun looked at Huo Shi and said these words sincerely and from the bottom of his heart.
They have been plotting against Chen Ke for too long and have spent too much time. Now they have nothing more to do over again.
Moreover, the effects of others are not as good as Huo Shi's.
Because Huo Shi was born in Baijia Palace, in Penglaizhou, and was promoted by Chen Ke.
A knife stabbed by a person like this is the most cruel knife. No one can stop a knife like this coming from behind.
Huo Shi looked at Yinglun with a slight smile in his dark eyes.
That smile was a mocking smile: "Jun Hu Chuan, do you believe what you said?"
"When I accept your conditions, I'm afraid there will be other conditions later, and one condition after another will completely pull me into your camp."
Huo Shi said straightforwardly and without mercy: "And if I cooperate with you, what will happen?"
"Governor Chen will be stabbed by his Majesty, and then, if he really develops according to your ideas, His Majesty will be angry with the system of "prefectures and counties", and then implement the enfeoffment system again under your instigation. "
"But will Your Majesty really let a culprit like me go?"
Huo Shi looked at Yinglun, and the words in his mouth were like sharp swords that directly tore through Yinglun's disguise.
The so-called promises are nothing more than temporary sugar-coated shells.
If Huo Shi really accepts this sugar-coated bomb, then when the goal of winning is achieved, the bomb will explode.
At that time, Yinglun would not only not save Huo Shi, but he would also want Huo Shi to die faster.
Because only if Huo Shi dies completely can his victory be clean.
Yinglun's expression suddenly became extremely embarrassed. He looked at Huo Shi and gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't my credibility, Mr. Hu Chuan, not worthy of your trust?"
This time, before Huo Shi could speak, Huo Zhen spoke first.
He glanced sideways at Ying Lun, who was standing there, with some confusion in his brows: "I said Mr. Hu Chuan, where did you get the confidence to believe that I must have killed someone?"
Huo Zhen raised his eyebrows mockingly, looking a little heroic.
"I still know exactly what I did. I also know whether I killed anyone."
"Even if you are drunk, will a person become another person?"
"Of course this is impossible."
"Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for me to do what that person said. After being drunk, I accidentally beat the woman to death because I failed to flirt with her."
Huo Zhen raised his head, looking extremely proud.
At this moment, although his figure was not as tall as Yinglun, his aura directly overwhelmed Yinglun.
"Hu Chuanjun, you think highly of your own settings, but you underestimate them!"
After finishing speaking, Huo Zhen stopped talking to Mr. Hu Chuan. He just looked at Huo Shi beside him and said, "Brother, let's go."
Yinglun watched these two people walk into the Governor's Mansion, then gritted his teeth and immediately entered the Governor's Mansion.
He was going to follow these two men.
Now we are not in a desperate situation, and we can still make a comeback!
He wanted to see if Chen Ke and Huo Shi could find any flaws in themselves, and whether they could prove that Huo Zhen was innocent.
Of course, there is another thing that is more important.
Even if Chen Ke proves it, what can he do...?
He squinted his eyes, with a bit of murderous intent in his heart: "Perhaps, on the day when there is no other way, this is the only thing I can do!"
.........
Inside the Governor's Palace
The summer wind gradually becomes cold and bleak, and autumn is gradually approaching.
There are many trees planted in the Governor's Mansion. In autumn, the leaves on these trees will rustle down and fall to the ground, forming a golden carpet.
It makes people feel very comfortable just looking at it.
And when autumn comes, the leaves will also fall on the lake in the Governor's Mansion.
At that time, the Pavilion in the middle of the lake became the best viewing spot. You could sit on a boat and take a boat to the Pavilion in the middle of the lake, and then look at the leaves floating on the lake.
This is one of the great things in life.
And now Chen Ke is lying in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, but there are no leaves on the lake.
He was half-lying on the chair. Things like a sofa were gradually made, but it was not yet fully implemented.
Not only sofas, but even the most common chairs have not yet been fully promoted.
This is also a way that Chen Ke plans to keep to develop Penglaizhou's economy. If stools and chairs are promoted here, the stools and chairs here may become a brand.
Maybe it can drive the development of some handicraft industries.
Just as Chen Ke was thinking like this, a small boat slowly swam over in the distance and swam into the pavilion.
Chen Ke raised his eyes slightly and saw four people standing on the boat.
The leader among them was Fusu. The look on Fusu's face made Chen Ke curious.
He had never seen such an expression on Fusu's face, which seemed to be curiosity, ridicule, and more like suppressing a smile.
Chen Ke looked at the two people following Fusu. He knew two of them, Huo Shi and Yinglun, but he didn't know the other one.
But he looks similar to Huo Shi, maybe he is Huo Shi’s younger brother Huo Zhen?
Within a moment, several people walked up to Chen Ke.
Before Fusu could speak, Yinglun stood aside and spoke first: "Governor, I want to sue Huo Shi, the governor of Linzi County, for allowing his younger brother to take care of people's lives."
"Now that I have this life-threatening lawsuit on my hands, I came to see the Governor."
"Although Huo Shi is a disciple of the Governor and was promoted by the Governor, I believe that as His Majesty's trusted minister, you will not favor brothers Huo Shi and Huo Zhen."
He sighed, and without even having time to breathe, he said in one breath: "The capital of Guizhou in Penglaizhou believes that the governor will give a fair trial."
"The poor woman who died in the hands of Huo Zhen will definitely be grateful to the governor for his great kindness under the spring, and she can die in peace."
After Ying Luan finished a series of words, Chen Ke raised his eyebrows and looked at Huo Zhen who was standing aside.
Huo Zhen looks very similar to Huo Shi, except that the facial features on their cheeks are slightly different.
One looks slightly delicate, the other looks slightly heroic.
Huo Zhen is the one who looks heroic.
He has a pair of sharp eyebrows, a pair of bright eyes that seem to be able to talk, and a lively temperament all around him.
When people take one look at it, they feel like they are seeing the summer sunshine.
Lively, sunny and healthy.
This is Chen Ke's first judgment about Huo Zhen.
It's completely different from his brother's gentleness, delicateness and thoughtfulness.
For example, a man who seems to be wandering on the rivers and lakes
A chivalrous man wields a sword in the world, and when there is injustice on the road, he draws his sword to help.
The other one looked like a student going to the capital to take the exam, with a scholarly and delicate look.
Chen Ke looked at Huo Zhen, and then asked: "Huo Shi, Huo Zhen, is what Mr. Hu Chuan said true?"
Huo Shi and Huo Zhen looked at each other, and then Huo Zhen took a step forward.
"For the record, Governor, it seems that this is indeed the case."
Chen Ke raised his eyebrows slightly to express surprise: "It seems, so far?"
"What does it mean?"
After Huo Zhen sorted out his thoughts, he was about to speak when Ying Lun on the side jumped in first.
"Governor, this guy is ready to quibble!"
"Now that the poor woman is dead and there is no evidence to prove her death, isn't everything he said right?"
He sighed faintly: "You can't protect his brother just because he is your disciple. Are you worthy of His Majesty?"
Chen Ke narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ying Lun with a murderous aura: "Jun Hu Chuan."
He did not stand up, but the aura on Chen Ke's body at this moment shocked everyone.
Especially Ying Lun, he even felt that Chen Ke would directly kill him at this moment!
This is not without precedent!
"I am the governor, you are just Mr. Hu Chuan with no real power."
"I hope you won't go overboard like this next time!"
Under the pressure of the heavy momentum, Ying Luan subconsciously felt frightened. He swallowed with some hesitation and nodded slightly.
Chen Ke closed his eyes and lay there, the terrifying aura on his body disappeared.
"go on."
Huo Zhen lowered his head. He felt the strong aura on Chen Ke's body. Not only was he not afraid, but he felt happy in his heart.
Only people like this can suppress Hu Chuanjun and
Only then was he able to clear himself of his grievances.
Immediately, he told everything about that day in detail.
The thing is simple to say. A friend invited him out for a drink. After he went to the nunnery, several women played music and danced to entertain him.
After drinking a few more drinks and getting drunk, Huo Zhen broke down.
When he woke up, a group of people surrounded him, and the friend also had a painful expression on his face.
Tell him that he accidentally killed the woman because he was drunk and flirted with her.
The woman's body was lying beside her, her eyes unable to close, as if she had been wronged in some way.
At this time, when everyone was watching him, the friend shouted that his brother was the governor of Linzi County and told those people not to make any announcement about it.
Huo Zhen said directly at that time that if he had killed the person, he would have committed suicide directly after returning home to say goodbye to his parents.
He would never use his brother's power to get away for himself.
And that's the end of the matter.
After hearing this, Chen Ke smiled with his eyes: "So that's it."
He turned to look at Fusu and said, "Fusu, do you think this Huo Zhen killed anyone?"
Fusu shook his head slightly: "Teacher, I don't know either."
"I'm not good at dealing with this kind of thing."
Chen Ke waved his hand and said, "It's simple. Wasn't Huo Zhen's friend not drunk and saw everything, but was unable to stop it?"
"Then let him come to the Governor's Mansion and confront him."
The boy on the side nodded slightly: "Here."
At this time, Ying Lun, who was standing aside, looked relaxed. He had long expected that Chen Ke would find that person to confront him.
Then the rest is a good show.
.............
Above the blue sea.
The ship was swimming in the wind and waves, and it seemed that a land boundary could be vaguely seen in the distance.
Xu Fu looked into the distance and picked up the map of Kanyu in his hand.
He said with some hesitation: "This does not seem to be the place where we go to sea, but the junction of Jiaodong County and Linzi County."
"But this is also the territory of Great Qin. We can go here to resupply and take a rest."
Di Lun on the side didn't have any other opinions on this. After all, he didn't know the road. Besides, he had been sailing on the sea for too long.
He looked at Xu Fu and said, "Mr. Xu, how long will it take for us to reach the port?"
Xu Fu estimated the distance and said: "Although the land line can be seen now, it is actually still relatively far away."
"Based on the distance, it should take about half a month."
He said with emotion: "We have been sailing at sea for more than half a year, and we are finally approaching land."
"I just didn't expect that starting from Linzi County would actually save so much time?"
"Perhaps we can start from here when we return."
Xu Fu looked at the border line in the distance and said softly: "Great Qin, I am finally back."

Xianyang City
Feng Mansion
Feng Jie held the imperial edict in his hand, with a little excitement in his eyes.
Just now, His Majesty's imperial edict was delivered.
He was made to serve as the exploration commander and concurrently as the commander of the manufacturing department. In addition, he was awarded seventh rank.
This is a feat of rank seven!
On the battlefield, I don’t know how many people have to be killed to get it.
Of course, the most critical position is the position of commander of the "Manufacturing Department".
Although there is no clear statement from the Manufacturing Department, everyone knows that the director of the Manufacturing Department is at the level of Jiu Qing.
The Commander-in-Chief is only half a level lower than the Director.
Feng Quji patted Feng Jie on the shoulder: "My Feng family cannot fail!"
...........
In the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
A boy came over in a hurry, with a slightly anxious look on his face.
When he came in front of him, he said: "Report to the governor, our people found that Fang Cong was killed at home."
"When we went there, the body was already cold. I don't know when it disappeared."
Chen Ke glanced meaningfully at Ying Lun, the old god beside him.
"No one is alive?"
"How come people are gone?"
He asked softly: "Huo Zhen, apart from Fang Cong, did anyone else see it?"
